Couple of months later...
Olivia sat on the floor watching Lilly and the twins playing with their toys. Mark came out of the kitchen with two cups in his hands and jumped over the castle the kids were building with blocks.
"Daddy be careful!" Mike yelled at him as he fixed a block.
"Sorry" Mark shrugged and sat down by Olivia and handed her a cup "Hot coco"
"Yummy" Olivia took the cup and took a sip as she kept watching the kids. She rested her head on Mark's shoulder and gave him a kiss on the neck.
"Aww well thanks, you taste good as well" He returned the kiss on the cheek and looked at the kids "Lilly is exactly like you, you know that?"
"How?"
"She likes to fall asleep on my back like you do all the time, she has brown eyes, she has that 'mess with me and I will smack you so hard your grandkids will feel it' attitude and also she is a cutie that gets everything her way just like you"
Olivia smirked a little "Hey buddy you're the one that spoiled me and you spoil her"
"She's a girl, I have to spoil her. She's a princess"
"See, it's that attitude that makes her like you. She has that little hint of being conceded which makes her so cute and she just has to get what she wants"
"You made me conceded cause you always say how cute and funny I am and how huge my penis is," He whispered with a smile.
"Liar. You added the last part"
"I got you hot coco, at least be nice enough to lie about my blessed penis."
Olivia chuckled and nodded "All right enjoy it. It's your Christmas present"
Mark's phone started to ring. He reached for it but Olivia grabbed his hand.
"Mark don't, it's Christmas Eve"
"I'm sorry" He gave her a kiss and got up to take the call.
Olivia let out a deep breath and shook her head.
After a while Mark came out of their bedroom in a sweater and jeans and his holster was clipped on his belt. He kneeled down and gave all the kids a kiss. "Daddy has to go to work. I love you"
"Daddy its Christmas eve" Matt whined as he hugged him.
"I know buddy but mommy is here and I'll be back by tomorrow morning" He gave him a kiss and then kissed Lilly "I love you honey"
"Love you too." Lilly kissed him back "Will you make sure Santa leaves presents for us tonight?"
"Of course. I'm going to go see him as soon as I finish with work"
"You would go to the North Pole?" Mike asked as he hugged him.
"I would go across the world for you guys" Mark gave him a kiss and then kissed all of them on the head again and went over to Olivia.
Olivia got up from the floor "I'll walk you out" She put on her jacket and walked out of the house with him.
"I'm sorry, I'll try to come home as soon as possible ok?" He hugged her "Merry Christmas eve"
"Merry Christmas Eve to you too. It would be more merry if you were here"
"I'm sorry baby. You got the kids and you're at home, I'm at work without you guys"
"Be careful" Olivia hugged him tighter "I love you"
"I love you too. Give me some sugar"
Olivia rolled her eyes with a small smile and planted a passionate kiss on his lips.
He licked his lips and took a deep breath "You save that for me tonight"
"We'll see how late you get home. It's getting cold out and my cute butt is freezing" She teased knowing he loved it when she was a little conceded.
Mark groaned, "Don't do that when I have to go to work. I want you conceded late at night in the dark so I can touch you and make love to you"
"Get to work you horny fed" She slapped his butt and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Alright. See you later girly" He gave her a kiss and got into his car.

Brad's POV
I sat on the couch watching her. Her and her new hot shot boyfriend. This punk with a Rolex and gel in his hair that she met at work, this damn lawyer that was stealing her from me. Ok I'm lying, he didn't steal her, more like I lost her and he then got her. But he's only borrowing the mother of my child; I will get her back sooner or later. Maybe I should bribe Ben to kick this Jack fellow in the balls. Yea, nice Brad, there's the father of the year award.
"Dad?"
I look down and Ben is tugging on my jeans. He has that cute little red hair from Casey and my blue eyes. "What's up buddy?"
"Can I open a present?"
I pick him up and sit him in my lap as I keep an eye on that little punk who is touching Casey's hair. Fucker. "It's not Christmas yet"
"I know but just one?" He pleads. Why does he have to get Casey's pleading look? I'm such a sucker when it comes to that look so of course I give in.
"Just one" I carry him to the tree and sit him down. I look over and Casey is giggling at something this Mr. Brad Pitt wanna-be said. I can't take this anymore. It's Christmas Eve; this asshole shouldn't be in my house. I walk over to this so-called cute couple. The only cute thing in that relationship is Casey. "Case a word in the kitchen please?"
She looks up at me with those mesmerizing green eyes and those ridiculously sexy lips "Sure" Eww she just touched Jack's leg "I'll be right back" She tells him. Not if I have anything to say about it.
We go to the kitchen and of course I'm checking her out like I always do. What? I can look but not touch. Those are the rules about another man's girl I think. "Why is this dude here?"
"He is my boyfriend," She answers in a low voice. The only thing going through my mind is throwing her down on a table or bed and having sex with her. God we had good sex- "Do you have a problem with that?" She cuts into my thought.
"It's Christmas Eve Casey, Ben is here. You don't have to flirt with another man in front of him" Is it so bad that I'm imagining her naked now?
"Is this because of you or him?" She asks as she crosses her arms on her chest. And there I go again looking at her breasts. Look up you idiot. My eyes quickly fly up to hers as I find myself gulping at the thought of taking her shirt off.
"Him" I lie. "I just don't want him to find it weird since you're the mom and I'm the dad"
She smirks at me. I know that smirk. It's the smirk that shows she is going to challenge my lie "This doesn't have anything to do with Jack being my boyfriend and you my ex?" Ouch. Damn woman relax. I do have feelings.
Ah fuck it. She can't do anything worse to me if I'm just honest right? Honesty is the best policy right? Let's hope so "I don't like you being with him. I want to be with you Casey. We have a child together, not you and him. I want to marry you" If you think that was deep and thoughtful and sweet while I have been telling her this for months and it still doesn't work. Damn women and their disbelief in men. I do want to marry her.
"Brad you had your chance. For almost three years and you blew it" no shit Sherlock. I'm a man. We're all dumb "I'm with Jack now" Throw me over the bridge why don't you.
She turns to leave but I grab her arm and pull her back.
She looks down at my hand holding her arm and then looks up at me. What is she scared of me or something? I let go not to give her the wrong impression "Can he just leave for tonight then? I want to spend Christmas Eve with you and Ben"
She looks at me for a couple of seconds and sort of nods "Fine" Oh shit did I just get my way? Well this is new with Casey and me. Jack can go and jack himself.
She again walks away and I really need to stop looking at her ass. I don't think it's healthy how much I want her.
I see her say something to this son of a bitch and he looks at me and gets off the couch. Yea bitch better get up. I own a gun and you own a law book. I would gladly kick his ass.
Casey smiles at him and hands him his coat. I was right for her not this guy. She never got my coat; it was always me holding her coat for her. I made her laugh and I was the one that could get her to calm down about anything.
Jack heads to the door and we still got a war going on by looking at each other. I want to smack that goofy ass grin off his face. He winks at me and opens the door. What the fuck did that mean? Is goofy looking face bi or something? Wow creepy threesome image. I try not to laugh at that thought and of course you know me I cant hold a comment back "Right back at you Jack"
He stops in the doorway and looks at me. Casey looks over at me too. Keep your mouth shut Brad always keep your mouth shut. Luckily, Ben is still by the tree playing with the truck my parents bought him. God bless that kid for not caring about anything that goes on around him.
"What was that?" Jack asks and does this face as if he is going to kick my ass. Jeez man you're a lawyer. While you were in law school I was a NYPD cop.
"Oh nothing. By the way don't come back into this house"
And now I get the bloody murder look from Casey. I know hers is serious since she can probably smack the shit out of me and I can't hit her since she is a woman. I can tell she wants to hurt me so badly now. "Brad why don't you go by Ben ok?"
"Only if you come with" I wink at her with a small smirk. Why are men always competitive with other men? Well I'm her son's father so she can't kill me.
"In your dreams" She replies with a smirk. Ouch. I miss the old Casey that wasn't mean.
"Hey don't get pissy with me just because Jack's beanstalk isn't big enough for you to climb" I fire right back. Oh man that was good. Hi-five Brad! Woo! Man I'm a dork.
Jack boy turns a bright red. Did I hit a nerve? Oh man I bet he does have a small penis. Yea little Brad is bigger then little Jack!
"I'll call you later" Casey tells him as she does the cute hand on chest and then slides her hand down. I miss that. She used to do that all the time to me.
Jack nods and leaves our apartment. Casey closes the door and turns to me. Oh no I'm in trouble. I love when she is mad but I know there are consequences when flirting with a pissed Casey but I still love her. "Hey he started it"
"Come here" She motions with two fingers. Hey I thought that was Ben's thing when he is in trouble.
"Why?"
"Just come here"
I slowly move to her. Next thing I know I'm smacked on the side of the head. Damn I knew that was a trick. I still find her cute even though that hurt like hell.
She walks over to Ben and picks him up. She ignores me and carries Ben to bed. I fucked up big time. I know Casey hates jealous types but all is fair in love and war.

"Can we open the presents?" Matt asked looking over at Olivia.
"It's not Christmas yet sweetheart"
"Just one?" Mike pleaded.
"One gift and then you're off to bed. Deal?" Olivia asked as she picked Lilly up. All three kids nodded. "Go insane"
All three ran to the tree and chose a gift.
"Mommy this is for you from daddy" Matt held up a box. Olivia took it and opened the little flap and immediately shook her head at what it said 'Don't open in front of kids detective, wink, wink.'
"This one is from daddy for you" Matt threw a box to Mike.
Mike opened the gift and his face brightened up "No way!"
"What you get?" Lilly asked trying to see.
"Get away" Mike pulled the gift away.
"Be nice Michael" Olivia warned.
All three kids looked at the oldest twins gift and were shocked "Why do you get a skateboard?" Matt asked.
"What did you get?"
Matt shrugged and opened his own gift "A skateboard!" He yelled with a huge smile.
Olivia just smiled since Mark couldn't resist but to go crazy when he bought the kids gifts.
Lilly finally opened her gift and looked at it disappointedly "This isn't what I wanted"
The twins looked into her box and both shrugged at the same time at the stuffed toy dog.
Olivia raised an eyebrow wondering why Mark wouldn't get Lilly what she wanted since it wasn't like him at all "Maybe daddy just mixed the toys up."
Lilly sat down on the ground and started to cry, "He doesn't love me"
"Aww honey" Olivia picked her up and rocked her "Daddy loves you more then the whole world"
Olivia heard the doorbell. She took a deep breath wondering who it was now. She went to the door with Lilly still crying in her arms. She opened the door and her eyes became wide seeing someone dressed up as Santa Clause standing there.
Lilly turned around and spotted the person at the door "Santa?"
"You got it little lady"
Olivia smirked and shook her head recognizing Mark's voice. "Want to come in Santa?"
"Well alright, I got the feeling my friend was sad so I had to stop by" Mark answered as he touched his fake white beard "Lilly why are you crying?"
"He knows my name" Lilly whispered to Olivia with a huge grin. Olivia smiled and nodded. "My daddy didn't get me what I wanted for Christmas"
"Oh yes he called me and told me to tell you that what was in that box is half of your present"
"Daddy called you?" Lilly asked with a huge smile "Mommy, daddy said he would call Santa and he did!"
"C'mon Santa" Olivia motioned for Mark to come in.
Mark quickly took the present he bought for Lilly and put it behind his back as he came into the house.
The twins looked at him with shocked faces "Santa?" They asked in unison.
"Hello Michael and Matthew, did you like the present your father told me to give you?"
Both nodded and held their new skateboards to their chest.
Mark kneeled down by Lilly. "Lilly are you ready for you're real present?"
"Yea!" She yelled out excitedly.
Mark brought the gift in front of her.
"A puppy!" All three kids yelled excitedly.
Olivia looked over at Mark "A puppy" She said with no enthusiasm.
Mark shrugged innocently and scratched his cheek since the fake beard was itchy. "Lilly is it ok if Santa talks to your mommy alone?"
The little girl nodded as she kept petting the small dog in front of her.
Olivia got up and followed Mark into the kitchen. "You bought her a puppy?"
"She asked me for one" Mark whispered as he pulled the beard down. "It's getting hot here and this time it's not you"
"You're taking care of him though," Olivia gave him a look.
"I will, don't worry" He tried to hug her but the fake belly he had on was getting in the way "Well this is new"
Olivia chuckled and got on her tippy toes and gave him a kiss "I don't know if this is wrong but I'm finding you cute in that outfit"
"Really?"
"Yea" Olivia nodded and traced over the belt.
"Maybe you might be lucky enough one day I will dress up as an Easter bunny for you"
Olivia laughed and grabbed the beard and pulled it back then let go so it hit him in the face.
Mark jumped up and rubbed his cheek "Be nice"
"What happened to work?"
"I went and finished and then got this outfit and came back home"
"C'mon lets go back to the kids" Olivia punched him as hard as she could in the stomach knowing he couldn't feel it. Mark stumbled back since she was strong. Olivia grabbed his arm before he fell and tried to contain her laughter.
"What is the matter with you? You don't punch magical creatures" Mark shook his head.
"Ok I'm done for now" Olivia gave him a kiss and went back to the living room.
Mark rolled his eyes and put his beard back. He went into the living room where Lilly and the twins were petting the dog "Santa has to go but you enjoy your present"
"Bye Santa" All three said as they waved.
"Hopefully Rudolph will take off this time" Mark shook his head and went out the door.
Olivia smirked a little "Ok guys, time for bed. It's getting late" Olivia took the puppy and put him down on the ground. All three kids did what they were told.
After a while Mark sneaked back into the house still in the Santa outfit since it was hard to change in the outfit in his car.
Olivia was laying in bed reading a magazine as he came in. "I'm sorry you're a little south of the north pole" Olivia teased with a smile.
He rolled his eyes and took the beard off "I'll go south down your body if you keep teasing me"
"Using sex as threat? I would love to be your suspect in your interrogation room"
Mark smirked and walked over to her "Why do you find this sexy? You imagine Elliot in a blue bunny suit during the day?"
Olivia sat up and kneeled on the bed "Pink" She teased with a nod.
"Oh but blue brings out his eyes detective"
"Stop talking about my partner. Start talking about me"
"Oh cocky. Marky like" He gently started to kiss her neck and accidentally fell on her on the bed.
Olivia started to laugh and just shook her head "Now Santa is horny as well and wants to get me in bed"
"So does cupid but he is too busy shooting me in the ass with his damn arrows" Mark teased with a smile as he tried to get off her. "Help me"
Olivia chuckled and pushed him off. "There you go Mr. Clause"
"Thank you Mrs. Clause" He took off the coat and then took off the fake belly.
Olivia just looked at him since he had red suspenders and was wearing a tank top pressed to his tan muscular body. His body was a little sweaty from everything he was wearing and that just turned her on even more "You know who you look like?"
"Um…your crazy husband?"
"No"
"Santa?"
"No"
"Well I clearly suck at this game. Want to help me cheat?"
"You look like a fireman"
Mark looked down at himself and sort of nodded. He quickly remembered that Olivia had a thing for firefighters but never wanted to admit it. He slowly looked up at her with a huge grin "You mean…a sweaty fireman with half his clothes off like in those calendars you look at in the check out aisle?"
"Yes but I don't look at those calendars" Olivia defended.
"Yea, and I don't look at the Victoria Secret catalogs" Mark smiled and sat on top of her.
Olivia placed her hands on his shoulders and ran it down his body, biting her lip the whole time as she mentally undressed him.
Mark just watched her expressions slowly change seeing she was aroused now. "You know I have an outfit for you as well…that present your not supposed to open in front of the kids"
Olivia smirked and nodded a little. She opened her drawer and pulled out her handcuffs "Or this"
Mark bit his lip "I must have done something good in the past life time"
Olivia playfully slammed the cuffs on one of his wrists.
"Oh so violent. I like this side of you detective Benson"
They heard their door creak open. Mark felt Olivia push him off the bed on the other side so no one saw him in the room.
Lilly came in holding her new stuffed dog in her hands "I can't sleep."
Olivia got off the bed and kneeled down by her "Why not?"
"Daddy reads to me and tucks me in, I cant sleep unless he tucks me in" She answered with big brown, sad eyes.
"How about mommy tucks you in?"
"No. It's not the same," She answered.
"I promise daddy will be up there in ten minutes ok?"
"But he is at work"
"Hey a promise is a promise ok?" Olivia gave her a kiss on the cheek "Now go wait for daddy"
Lilly nodded and returned the kiss. She left the room and closed the door behind her.
Mark pulled himself up and just looked at Olivia "I feel like I'm the cable guy and you just got caught"
Olivia chuckled and took off the handcuffs that were on one of his hands. "Go tuck her in"
He got off the ground and quickly took off the suspenders and pants from the outfit and pulled on jeans and t-shirt "I'll be right back" He gave her a kiss and ran out of the room.
Olivia sat there reading her magazine for a couple of minutes when Mark ran in again "Already?"
"I'm a fast reader when I'm horny" He took off his shirt and sat down on the bed as he started to unzip his jeans "Santa's little helper is all set to launch"
Olivia laughed and placed her magazine down "Santa's little helper?"
"Well thought I rename little Mark for the holidays. Around February he will be Cupid then Halloween he will be the little devil"
Olivia laughed and moved on top of him "Aren't you going to rename my breasts?"
"Already have, Vixen and Comet. Get it cause those names are very energetic" He smiled and pulled her shirt off "Hello boys"
Olivia pulled his jeans down and started to kiss his chest as she rubbed his muscular stomach over his tank top.
"Those handcuffs"
"The moment passed, sorry" Olivia shrugged a little "Maybe another time"
Mark groaned "Damn who ever invented reading before bed time"
"You're getting sex, don't complain"
"I'm Mark, I have to complain. It's like foreplay for me"
"I noticed" Olivia rolled her eyes and started to kiss him.
They heard the dog bark.
Olivia broke the kiss "Mark" She whined.
"You already named him after me? That's not nice"
"No. Go shut him up"
"Ok where's my gun?" He started to look around for his gun playfully.
Olivia smirked and got off him "Yea shoot a dog cause that's romantic"
"Well" Mark playfully shrugged as he zipped his jeans up "I'm one of a kind" He got up and opened the door. The puppy ran in the room and jumped on the bed and licked Olivia's face "Hey that's my job"
"Aww he's so cute" Olivia picked the puppy up and gave him a kiss on the head.
Mark sat down by Olivia and gave her a kiss on the cheek "I'm sorry but he cant stay, he has to go until we finish our thing"
"But Mark how can you say no to a cute face like that?" Olivia pouted a little.
"I can easily say no" He looked over at the dog "No"
"Aww Mark look at him. He looks like you when you beg for sex. That same puppy face"
Mark took the puppy in his hands and carried him to the kitchen. He put food in a bowl and then went back to the room. He closed the door behind him and it "Ok he is eating food and I want to eat you"
Olivia laughed and rolled her eyes "Well if you must agent Anderson"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Casey's POV
I put Ben to bed and then go out of his room to smack around Brad for being a jerk. Don't get me wrong I still love him I mean he fathered my child but he is such a jealous prick sometimes.
I go over to our room since we were still living together for the sake of Ben but we were separated. I guess neither of us liked the idea of not living with Ben so we compromised on living together as long as it wasn't anything intimate.
Brad is pacing around the room like a lunatic. He has that cute confused face on that I like. He spots me and quickly stops pacing around. "What?" I ask looking weirdly at him.
"Why won't you take me back?" He asks crossing his arms on his strong chest. What is it with him? First he is afraid of marrying me and now he wants to get back with me.
"Because I don't want you to marry me just for the hell of it. I want you to marry me for me" Being honest is good.
He walks over and takes my hands in his. He has to have the softest skin ever. "I want to marry you for us" Aww cute. Ok stop Casey you can't just give in. This guy made you cry, you can't just give in to a romantic line.
I place both of my hands on his muscular shoulders. God I miss that body of his and those tattoos that looked sexy as hell when he was sweaty "Brad I love you as the father of my child but we wont work out"
He just looks at me. No expression over his face at all. Not anger, no smile, nothing. All of a sudden I feel him place his hands on my waist and push me against my dresser and wow…there goes the kissing.
I'm totally confused at this moment so it's not like I'm kissing back. I'm just not sure what he is doing, does he want us together or does he just want casual sex?
I feel myself get lifted up by him and he places me on the dresser. Now he goes down and starts kissing my neck. Oh that feels good, ticklish but good non the less.
Wait I'm dating Jack. Jack is cute and nice. I quickly push Brad off "What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm sorry, I…I…I just want you back" He finally manages to stutter out. All I end up doing is staring into his cute blue eyes that were the first thing I fell for in him. Other then his personality but he had eyes that were just honest, everything he thinks and all emotions were in his eyes.
"I'm with Jack" I whisper as I feel him start to breath harder knowing he was getting aroused cause I swear sometimes he has the sexual drive of a teenager.
He nods a little. I knew he wasn't the type to cheat or have affairs, I mean his mother could kill him before I even get a chance. I guess I got lucky with him.
Next thing I know he is kissing me even harder. He knocked down all the perfumes and other stuff we held there. All of a sudden I feel his hand under my shirt and gently holding my back as he playfully pushes me on the wall. It might seem rough but it wasn't. He knew exactly how much foreplay I liked and he never crossed that line.
I want him but I know he wants more then just sex. I once again push him off. "No"
He stops what he is doing and nods again. He pulls back from me and shoves his hands in his jeans "I'm sorry" He whispers softly. Damn now I feel like a bitch.
I climb off the dresser and sort of feel embarrassed that I just turned him down. I know it was stupid to feel that but he was so amazing in his own way. A great father, son, brother and he was defiantly a great fiancé.
Both of us are quiet for about a minute when he speaks up again "Are you and Jack serious?"
I look up at him and I'm totally caught off guard. Why does this keep happening to me? First Tommy and now Brad. Maybe I should settle down with a man. "I don't know" I answer.
"He isn't your type"
I hated how we could talk as if we were best friends, "Why?"
"Cause he isn't me" He answered with a small smirk. He starts to move toward me again. I know Brad enough that he wants to kiss me since making out was his favorite thing second to sex and third to beating someone up in the interrogation room.
This time as he pushes me against a wall I don't do anything except go along with him. Being with him was better then not being with him, even if we weren't going to be married.
He gently breaks the kiss were in "I love you" He whispers softly. About damn time. It doesn't hurt to hear that once in a while.
"I love you too"
He pushes me the wall and I wrap my legs around his waist. We did always have amazing sex. He knew exactly what to do and when to do it. He holds me and carries me to our bed. He gently puts me on it and starts to kiss me with my legs still wrapped around him. Merry Christmas Casey Novak.
