This is a little weird of a chapter. It took some time and work to do, but I am pretty happy with it. This has some cursing in it, but you shouldn't be watching SVU in the first place if you minded that.

Clalla- I am so glad to hear someone is in high school besides me. I mean the only person I know here who watches the show is my English teacher.

Honora- yay you! First one who actually thought I should bring in Casey.

Everyone- Okay, it is clear to me that everyone, exception of Honora, doesn't want Casey. So… no Casey. Thanks for all the reviews, I love you all.

Yeah, she's givin' away little pieces of her innocence
She don't know what she's lookin' for
She just knows something's missin

The whole day went by pretty slowly for Abbie. She had a locker near Olivia's so they waited on each other, so that wasn't a problem. Spanish was a quiz all hour, and the stuff they were covering was about two weeks behind what she was working on in Texas.

At the end of the day, she wasn't sure what exactly to do. In Texas, everyone rode the bus or drove, here, everyone walked and few people got picked up. Her house was about 2 blocks so she would; of course walk, out in the freezing cold. She grabbed a black jacket and her bag before heading to Olivia's to thank her. It was pretty nice of Olivia, because most 'tours' she knew of, were geeky or ditched quickly, but Olivia was so nice, even though she had a lot of girl talk to her saying pour you, you got stuck with the brainy bitch.

"Hey," Abbie said cheerfully.

"Oh, hey," Olivia said, carefully placing a book in the top shelf of her neat locker.

"Thanks for hanging out with…" Abbie suddenly felt kind of stupid, realizing that Olivia was assigned to stick with her.

"No problem," she said, turning around. "So where do you live?" Olivia asked, pulling her bag over her shoulder.

"Over on W. Elm Tree," she said. Abbie started to indicate what direction; suddenly realizing she had no idea. Olivia giggled at that.

"I live right off that, I walk you over if you want to," she offered, pulling her bag over her right shoulder.

"Oh, you don't have…"

"Don't worry," she smiled. "Fin and Alex will probably walk to, Fin lives on Elm too and Alex lives about a block off of me," she said, walking ahead of Abbie.

"Fin, ya comin?" Olivia asked, passing him and his oversize group. She heard the average 'O's' through out the group when he shrugged her off.

"Don't think he is always like that, just most the time," Olivia said, rolling her eyes.

"Did you two… you know… go out?" Abbie asked, still a little shy. She hated feeling like this. She usually was outspoken and a smartallick.

"NO," Olivia said, getting defensive. Abbie raised an eyebrow but shrugged it off.

"Hey, Liv!" They turned around to see Alex calling Olivia.

"What?"

"I am going to stay after and watch Tim's practice so…"

"Okay," Olivia said, smiling. It was good to see Alex happy. She hadn't dated in forever, and Olivia was getting worried.

"First day?" Abbie asked, pushing her bag back on her narrow shoulder.

"Yeah…" Olivia said.

"Awe…"


They walked outside to the busy streets. After crossing the road, they turned round the corner. Pulling up on Elm they still hadn't stopped talking. Olivia found out about Abbie's life in Texas and Abbie found out about Olivia's classes here. She noted Olivia never talked and practically avoid all questions about home or parents. Before they knew it they were in front of Abbie's house. Abbie fished around her bag for her keys.

"Shit…" she cursed.

"What?" Olivia asked, raising a brow.

"My keys, I forgot them," she sheepishly said.

"Are your par…"

"My dad doesn't get off till 6 and my mom is still down in Texas with my brothers," she said, feeling guilty.

"Um… well…" Olivia really didn't want to have Abbie over if her mom was there. "How about we go to my house, and if my mum is there then we can go to the coffee shop down the road," she offered.

"Okay," Abbie said, thanking her. She quickly grabbed a pen and scrap piece of paper from her bag and wrote a note to her dad and stuck it under the door.

They walked around the corner to an apartment building. They went up the stairs to the third floor and Olivia unlocked the door to the first door on the right.

"Mom?" she asked, walking in the door. With getting no response, she walked in the apartment, picking up stuff as she walked quietly. "It's a little messy," she said, smiling.

"Hey, you know, at last you have stuff," Abbie said, looking around. A broken down couch sat in the middle of the floor, a TV in front of it, and tight kitchen in the corner.

"Want something to eat?" Olivia asked, opening a cream color fridge.

"Sure," she smiled.

"So how do you like it so far?" Olivia asked, getting some peanut butter out.

"It's okay, a lot different from Texas," she shrugged. "A lot different guys," she said, stretching out guys.

"Owe… who caught your eyes?" Olivia asked.

"Well that Marco was cute. Kinda reminds me of Sean," she said, smirking. All of sudden her face fell as she wiped away a tear.

"Ex?"

"Not exactly," she shrugged.

"Well, while where her you want to finish up Chem. Homework?"

"Sure," Abbie said, getting in her bag. They both got to work, Olivia working on the table questions while Abbie got the different words. As they worked they munched on crispy Ritz with peanut butter and bananas. The conversation was vague. As Abbie worked on the last of the vocabulary, they heard the door open, more slam open.

"Olivia get your ass out here and clean up this shit!" Abbie heard a voice yell. Olivia put her face in her hands, rubbed her temples and got up. Since the counter hide the table, Abbie could not see who did the yelling, but expected it to be Olivia's mom.

"Keep it down, I have someone over," Olivia hushed.

"Sure, like anyone would hang out with a bitch like you!" the voice yelled. Abbie felt a cold chill run up her spine. She stood up a little, picking up her stuff as she did. She noticed the tear down Olivia's face, along with one on her own.

"Who the hell is that?" a woman in her twenties with dirty cloths on asked. She had a scent of smoke, which clashed with the room.

"The company," Olivia mumbled.

"What, you get forced to stay here or something?" she said, sitting on the couch.

"Actually Olivia let me stay because I got locked out," she said, watching as Olivia cleaned. She went over to help but got a bitter 'don't' from Olivia.

"Huh," the mom huffed.

"Are you and Ned going out tonight?" Olivia asked her mom.

"You betcha. He should be here in a minute. Go hide your dirty self and don't some out till I'm cleaned and gone," her mom said, getting up. She grabbed a beer and headed to a back room.

"It is past six now, why don't you go," Olivia suggested, praying she would leave.

"Are you…"

"Yeah, I'll see ya tomorrow at school," she said, forcing a smile. Abbie grabbed her bag and walked out, praying mindlessly for Olivia.


Okay I know it is a little sad.
