Detective Olivia Benson's life changes hopefully for the better. However, she knows that there is going to be some obstacles here and there, but with the help of a love one, she will overcome them. This is an A/O fanfic; I do not mean to offend anyone. Therefore, if you do not like, then do not read.
A/N: Hey, at first I took in Alex's injury as a way for Olivia to find out who Alex's mom was. Then I figured out this was the best way to introduce Casey into the story. I hope you like it. Again I was not expecting to update so soon.
To Bkwrmchar: You are welcome. Thank you for your review. I just wished that would have called me. Oh well here to hoping that job comes soon.
A few days that goes bye. Alex and a young woman come into the precinct. "Hey Alex, how are you feeling?" Olivia asks. She eyed the woman up and down. She wondered who she was.
"Hey Liv, I'm feeling better. This is Casey Novak she is the other ADA that Arthur Branch hired, she will be helping out on the cases." Alex says to the group.
"Is it the cases here too much to handle hear." Munch says to Cabot. Olivia shoots him a look.
"No, I can handle them just fine. Elizabeth and Arthur thought that another ADA would do us good." Alex says to Detective Munch.
"Hey Casey Novak" Elliot says coming into the room.
"You know her?" Olivia says to him.
"Well not personally but I have seen her play softball. She has a good pitch." Elliot says. "Elliot Stabler" giving her hand to shake.
"Hey thanks, you play?" Casey says.
"Not in a league like you." Elliot says. "What are you doing here?"
"I am the new ADA," Casey says.
Elliot looks to Alex, "You're leaving us?"
Alex shakes her head no "No Casey and I will be working together on the cases we prosecute."
"Oh, okay" Elliot says, "How yea feeling anyway?'
"Better, I finally got a good night sleep." Alex says, "After the incident in court, DiFrancesco's lawyers declared a mistrial. Judge Petrovsky had no choice but to grant it. Though I think when Mr. DiFrancesco and I cross paths again, Elizabeth is going to be in the courtroom the whole time."
"You're going to prosecute the case again, why not have Casey do it." Olivia said, she was upset that Alex was going to try this case again. After all he was the one that attacked her.
"I think that Casey is going to have the same problem Alex had with Mr. DiFrancesco. Mr. DiFrancesco hates woman, especially woman that can overpower him." Dr. Wong says coming into the room. He is the new psychologist for the unit. "That is why he attacked Ms. Davis, probably most likely brushed him off in the club. That and the attire she was wearing made him think that she overpowered him."
"Well if that is the case then Alex can use her attack in the courtroom in the re-trial. It goes to motive." Casey says.
Alex nodded, but most likely she wouldn't use it. She wanted the case to be about Jessica, not her. Besides, the judge could easily rule against it.
"Who's catching" Cragen says coming out of his office. Fin and Munch raise their hands. "There is a supposed gang rape at a school, officers already have the suspect in custody."
"Then why are we needed?" Munch says, as he was putting on his coat anyway.
"Because the school is full of rich kids, I don't want the officers pushing this under the rug." Cragen says handing the address to Fin as he was walking by.
"Mind if I join?" Casey says.
"Sure, won't hurt, might need you anyway." Fin says to her.
Later on in the day, Alex was back in her office. Olivia was coming back from a supposed rape in progress. When they got there, they found out that it was dumb college students shooting a homemade porno. Elliot went to talk to Alex about a testimony he was set to give in the later week. When Olivia was entering the squad room, she looked to the lock-up. She has seen none other than Frankie Cabot in there. Oh, Alex was going to flip. "What the hell are you doing in there?"
"What are you doing here?" he says back.
"I work here, not what are you doing in there?" Olivia says
"You know him?" Munch says coming up.
"Um yeah, sort of, we just met the other day." Olivia says, "What is he in here for?"
"What all the others are in here for, Rape," Munch says, she seen her giving the kid a stern look. "Sorry Liv" he says as he goes back into the squad room.
"You raped someone?" Olivia says to him
"What do you care, and no I did not. I can prove it; just take me into an integration room." Frankie says
"I can't your parents aren't here, we can't question a minor." Olivia says
"Fine don't question me, I just want to show you, to prove I did not rape Sam." Frankie says, "Come on you know who my sister is. Why would I commit a crime that Andy works in?" he looks to her. "You don't have to questioning me on the rape, just talking about skateboarding."
"Skateboarding" Olivia says, that was a new one.
"Yes, skateboarding" Frankie says.
"All right" Olivia says, she knew that she was going to get into trouble for this. Olivia opens the gage and pulls Frankie out, as another kid yells that he wants to talk about skateboarding as well. Olivia rolled her eyes at the kid.
Olivia was taking Frankie threw the squad room. "You can't talk to him without his parents, Liv," Munch says to her.
"Where not going to talk about the rape, we are going to talk about Skateboarding." Olivia says.
Just as Olivia and Frankie enter the integration rooms Elliot and Alex walk in. "Get your partner; she is questioning a minor without his parents." Fin says to Elliot. Both Elliot and Alex go into the room reserved for questioning. Alex did not want to Olivia to lose her job. When they got there, she had seen that it was her kid brother Frankie in there.
"Oh god" Alex says and then burst into the room. "FRANCIS JAMES CABOT, what did you do?" she then turned to Olivia who was leaning up against the far wall, opposite the door. "What were you thinking of questioning a minor without parental consent?"
"Hey we were only going to talk about skateboarding. She wasn't going to questioning me." Frankie says. "Come on And, they think I raped someone."
Alex looked to Olivia to see if it was true, who just nodded, and then to Frankie, she knew that her kid brother could do some stupid things, be he would not rape someone. "What does that have to do with skateboarding?"
Elliot was just getting over with the name Cabot. He had the same last name as Alex they did look alike. He walked over and joined Olivia against the wall. Frankie and Alex were standing on the other side of the table. Frankie motions for Alex to shut the door. He turns and pulls the blinds down on the window. Olivia and Elliot look to each other. This was going to be good. Elliot mouthed 'skateboarding' Olivia shrugged her shoulders.
