A few hands in, Olivia was up a few dollars, but she didn't expect that to last long. Alex seemed to be concentrating really hard on her cards.
"Who ordered a pizza?" a guy near the front door called.
"Oh that was me," Serena stood up and walked to the door. She returned with three boxes of pizza.
Abbie raised an eyebrow, "Is that all for you?"
Serena rolled her eyes, "Did you really just ask that?"
The pizza was passed around the table and the game resumed. Nina won the hand and got up to get everyone a refill on their drinks.
Abbie and Serena were whispering to each other while eyeing Casey who was oblivious.
"I bet she is." Serena whispered.
"How do you know?" Abbie asked back.
Serena smirked, "She plays softball."
"So?"
"So what?"
"Softball makes everyone a lesbian? My dad played softball for the company he worked for. Is he a lesbian to?"
"I don't know. I've never met him." Serena grinned.
Abbie shook her head. She'd never been so taken with someone so fast. Especially someone she argued with constantly. She leaned forward like she was going to answer, but instead she kissed Serena.
The blonde reciprocated the kiss and brought her hand to Abbie's cheek.
"Aww," Connie gushed, "So cute."
They pulled away, all smiles.
A couple hours later, the people in the apartment had started to filter out. Serena and Nina went out on an ice cream run.
"Serena is always hungry," Connie commented.
"It's because she's not human," Abbie replied with a small smile.
"Can't argue with that," Olivia smirked. She looked over at Alex who had been unusually quiet. Olivia was worried because she never skipped out on a chance to tease one of her friends.
The blonde stood, empty glass in hand. "I'm going to go get some more. Anyone else?"
"Can you get me a beer?" Abbie asked, "Thanks.
"That sounds good," Casey added.
Connie grinned, "I guess I'll give into the peer pressure and have one too."
"I'll help," Olivia stood and followed Alex into the kitchen. When they were out of earshot, Olivia asked, "Are you okay?"
Alex called, "Yeah," while her head was in the refrigerator getting the beer out.
Olivia leaned back in the corner of the kitchen with her hands on the counter next to her. "Then why have you gotten quiet?"
"I'm just thinking," Alex put on a smile that convinced Olivia. She put four bottle of beer on the counter before standing up. "Do you want one?"
Olivia nodded silently.
The blonde dipped down again, giving Olivia a glorious view. Olivia unabashedly ogled the blonde's derrière before smiling to herself and straightening up with Alex stood up. She was surprised when Alex turned her head to look at Olivia over her shoulder, "Did you get a nice look detective?"
Olivia's jaw dropped open. She didn't think Alex could see her. "I...um…well…"
Alex let out a flirtatious laugh and sauntered over to the good detective. She placed her hands on the counter on either side of Olivia, effectively trapping her. She raised an eyebrow, but in a sexy way instead of a questioning way. She slowly leaned forward and stopped, as her lips were a centimeter for Olivia's, "If you did, maybe you can get a private showing later on in your new apartment."
At that point Olivia was so turned on, the only thing she could do was close the gap between them and wrap her arms around Alex's waist. Alex leaned into Olivia and brought her hands up to caress Olivia's face.
"Hey!" Abbie called from the table, "While you two are in there making out, my beer is getting warm."
Alex giggled and pulled away. Olivia called back, "How did you know we were making out?"
"You've been quiet for too long," Abbie answered.
The blonde in the kitchen shrugged, "We've been caught."
"Do you want to get caught again?" Olivia waggled her eyebrows.
Alex smiled, "I think we should cool it until we're alone. I don't know if I can handle another kiss like that without some third base action."
Olivia laughed and picked up the two beers Alex didn't. When they got back to the table, Serena and Nina were back. Nina went to the kitchen to put the ice cream up while Serena sat next to Abbie.
"What are your plans for tomorrow?" Connie asked, gesturing with the neck of her beer bottle between Alex and Olivia.
"Apartment hunting," Olivia answered, "My lease is up in two weeks."
"Sounds fun," Serena droned.
Alex smirked, "The fun part will be the moving. Who wants to volunteer to help?"
Casey was the only one that said, "I will." The rest of the attorneys looked around the room.
"Who wants to volunteer their significant other?" Alex chuckled.
Abbie and Serena raised their hand while Connie nodded.
"You can't volunteer me," Abbie raised an eyebrow at Serena.
Serena smiled from behind her cards, "I guess I'll have to ask one of my other significant others then."
Abbie rolled her eyes and playfully kicked Serena under the table, "But I'm the best one you've got."
"True," Serena smiled.
"Barf," Nina said while she sat down again, "Get a room."
Connie noticed that Casey was being quiet so she asked politely, "What about you Casey? Any plan tomorrow?"
"Actually, I'm apartment hunting as well," Casey added, "Downgrade in job means a downgrade in an apartment."
"You should come with us," Olivia offered without even thinking about it, "I'm sure my price range is well below yours."
"Tell me about it," Nina interjected.
"If you wouldn't spend so much money getting your hair done, maybe you'd have some left over occasionally," Serena bumped Nina with her shoulder before taking a sip of her beer.
"That would be great," Casey smiled at Olivia, while Alex wanted to bang her head on the table. Her fun day with Olivia just turned into her almost fun day with Olivia and Casey.
It crossed her mind for a second to make up an excuse not to go, but then she realized that there was no way she was leaving them alone together.
