AN: First off, sorry for the long hiatus but updating now :) Tell me what you think.
"You know you really left a mark on Alex's eye." Casey laughed as she got up from the couch to get some drinks from the refrigerator.
Abbie smiled to herself, "Good. She caught me by surprise-"
"I can't believe she even hit you." Casey interrupted as she gave Abbie water. "I am happy you don't look as bad as her. She will be reminded every morning not to mess with you. Maybe this time she will play fair." Casey smiled as she sat down.
Abbie nodded, placed her bottle on the coffee table, and laid on Casey's lap. "We never did have our first date. Everything is going so fast… I mean, I know how I feel for you. I know that, but… I don't want to share you with some psycho who I know will just up and leave you." Abbie turned her head and kissed Casey's stomach.
Casey played with Abbie's hair before answering. She was still in love with Alex and currently in love with Abbie. It sucked that Abbie had to be forced into her crazy life, but she would be lying if she said that she didn't have feelings for Alex. She knew she felt something during that kiss with Alex… sparks flew and there is no denying it.
"I know." Casey said, sighing. "I can't control who I have feelings for."
"I just don't want you to only use your heart, use that brilliant brain of yours." Abbie smiled.
Casey chuckled, "Yes ma'am."
"Well, I have work tomorrow and my clothes are home. So I will see you tomorrow at work." Abbie said, lifting herself off of Casey and gave her a peck on the lips before she left out the door.
Casey quickly followed her and while Abbie was on her way out, Casey grabbed her hand, and Abbie turned around confused.
"I want a real kiss." Casey pulled Abbie close into a passionate kiss.
Abbie was first to break away, "Although how nice this is… I really, really, need to get my rest."
Casey sighed, "Okay." She gave her one more peck and watched her girlfriend strut away.
Abbie arrived at work early. She had brought flowers on her way to work and had them sent to Casey's office.
Today-like all her days- started off well…until someone screws that up of course.
She was working on her case when she heard a knock at her door, giddy as she was that morning she beamed a smile and yelled come in, however she wasn't expecting who was at the door.
Her smile faded into a frown. Her brows rapidly furrowed. Her eyes glared. Finally she spoke, "What do you want? I think I already sent the message that I never want you near me under any circumstances." Abbie said, anger quickly proliferated her words.
"I just want to say, good luck. I think you are- you will- need it. Did Casey tell you we almost-"
"Shut up," Abbie interrupted Alex.
"No need to be hostile. I want our competition to be fair, so I signed you up for a free spa date. I know you will need that too." Alex smiled.
"Right…Thank you. You placed it under my name?" Abbie asked curiously, as an idea suddenly popped in her head.
Hesitantly, Alex nodded, "Yes… you are welcome."
"Thank you so much." Abbie rose from her seat, "Is that the card in your hand?"
"Uh yeah, here." Alex said, handing the card over to Abbie.
"Well, I have to get work done. You know how it is." Abbie smiled as she shut the door behind Alex.
One for Abbie, zip for Alex.
Abbie quickly got to her phone and called her girlfriend.
"ADA Novak speaking."
"Hey babe." Abbie smiled.
"I miss you, a lot… I know you have to work but I really want to see you, right now." Casey said, almost whining.
Abbie leans back on her chair and smiled, "Aww, I miss you too and I have a little surprise for you, but I'll give it to you later."
"I wonder what it is," Casey spoke in a sultry voice.
"You'll have to find out. I got to go I have a meeting in a few. Love you." Abbie replied.
"Love you too." Casey smiled.
As Casey shut the phone, Alex strolled in. "I want to take you somewhere."
"Right now? I have cases upon cases to look over. I can't."
"Please! I am dying to spend time with you. I love you more than anything and I want to show you that. I want to show that I really will try hard this time. That-" She paused as someone passed by the still open door. She shut the door and walked towards Casey.
"I still love you and I know I screwed up last night, I expected more. I shouldn't have and I am sorry. I am finally saying it, I am sorry for everything I put you through! I wish I can go back and change it-"
"But you can't"
"You are right, I can't. I can only learn and become better. I realize I went crazy by going behind your back. I did horrific things to Abbie by hitting her and threatening her… I should have respected your relationship, and I am sorry." Alex kneeled and turned Casey's chair to face her. She stared Casey straight in the eye, "Casey," tears made their way down her cheek, "If you want me to leave just say those words and I am gone."
"I…I don't want you to leave Alex, I never wanted to see you go, you made that decision without me…twice I might add." Casey wiped her eyes, she just realized she was tearing up, too.
"I know, I know, and I know that I will never do it again." Alex stood up and kissed Casey who quickly ended the kiss.
"I have work, like I said earlier. I will see you around." Casey slightly smiled and watched her ex nod and leave the office quietly.
"Oh shit" Casey breathed. She placed her elbows on the desk and let her palms cover her face.
While walking out Alex ran into Olivia, "I was just leaving." Alex walked past Olivia who entered Casey's Office.
"Hey are you ok?" Olivia said softly.
Casey looked up at her friend who was still by the door, and nodded.
"So I take it you found Abbie… Sorry that Serena and I were of no help." Olivia smiled and shut the door.
"It's ok," Casey answered, gesturing Olivia to sit.
"Wait, are you ok Casey? Did something happen between you and Abbie? I saw Alex leaving-Did you…get back together?" Olivia questioned as her mind went on a rampage trying to figure Casey out.
"Abbie and I are fine… it's a long story-"
"I have time. I was supposed to be going over a statement with you." Olivia finally took a seat and listened.
After explaining the events of the day prior, Casey took a breath, "I know it's not fair to Abbie, but-"
"I get it. I think I would be in the same position if I were in your shoes. Just…just don't hurt Abbie ok? She's been through a lot." Olivia touched Casey's hand and gazed into her eyes, "Now, I think we really need to go over my statement."
That got a laugh out of Casey, and they began to work.
AN: I know, it has been a loooong time since I updated this story and I am trying to start updating this and other stories weekly.
