A/n: This is only my 2nd fan fic. This is a post-ep for the third horseman. I own nothing relating to law and order: CI besides my DVD sets. Mr.wolf does. Pls no flames but constrictive cristim is appreciated.
It had been a long hard case. This case had really gotten to Alex. Finishing up her paper work all she wanted was a drink. As she was getting ready to go Bobby asked "I promised you a margarita didn't i?"Yah you did"
At the bar they slid into a booth. A waitress soon apperared. "hi what can I get you" Bobby got some nachos and a beer. Alex got a margarita and a sandwich.
There seemed to be an awarkard silence so finally Bobby asked "Alex what's wrong"
"nothing"
"Yah there is. I can tell there is"
Alex was staring to fidget. She knew she could trust her partner with her life but this was difficult. She had only told one other person this. Finally she sighed." I was 19 I had just started college. I was going out with guy Patrick. I got pregent. I was scared. I told him and he said "have fun being a single mama." I couldn't exactly tell my parents. I always wanted to be a cop. It was my lifelong dream. Ever since I was a little girl. I couldn't exactly raise a baby and become a cop. Hell, I was still a kid. I went to the clinic the next day. I got an abortion. It was the right thing to do. I couldn't support a child. I don't feel guilty about what I did. I do want to have a kid one day. You have to be ready though. I don't even know if I'm ready now. After I had it done I saw the people outside the clinic protesting. Saying I had murdered a baby. I can't comprehend how they can say that. I have a right in this country as a woman to have an abortion. I bet none of those people had ever been in my situation. I guess it just brought back memories"
Alex was crying by that point. Bobby just held her. After a while Alex looked up a him and smiled" thank you" Bobby just smiled back.
