Casey walked in to the squad room to see Elliot typing something up on the computer.
"What the hell is up with Liv?" She asked as she sat on the edge of his desk.
"You should ask Liv about that." He replied simply as he continued to type.
"Elliot, just tell me." She pleaded.
Elliot sighed. "I don't know the whole story so you should just ask Olivia."
"Fine, I'll go ask her again tonight." Casey said and walked out.
"I'll go with you, Casey because I would like to know what's wrong with her as well." Elliot said before she could leave completely.
"Ok, Elliot. Meet me just outside her apartment building, just before seven." Casey replied before walking in to the elevator.
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
Casey tried to work the rest of the day without worrying about her best friend so much but the attempt proved futile so she decided to call her as soon as she got out of court that afternoon.
"Come on, Liv. Answer the damn phone." She pleaded.
The call ended up going to voicemail.
"Shit." Casey cursed before scrolling down her contacts and pressing the call button on Elliot's number.
"Stabler." He answered after four rings.
"Hey Elliot, it's Casey. Could you please meet me at Olivia's apartment?" The worry evident in her voice.
Elliot indentified the worry in the red haired ADA's voice and began to worry himself. "What's wrong, Casey?"
Casey took a deep breath. "Liv isn't answering her phone and I have the strongest feeling that something is wrong with her." She spoke quickly.
"Calm the hell down, Casey. I'm sure that Olivia is fine but I'll meet you there."
"Thank you, Elliot." Casey said and hung up before rushing out of the court house to catch a cab.
"Taxi!" She called out when she saw one.
Luckily for Casey, the first taxi that she saw stopped. She opened the back passenger door and hopped in, giving Olivia's apartment building address to the taxi driver.
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
When the taxi driver pulled up out the front of the apartment building, Casey noticed Elliot sitting on the front of a detective car.
She paid the driver and got out of the taxi before walking over to Elliot.
"Well press the buzzer, Casey." He said as he stood properly.
"If you're going to be an ass, go home." Casey said angrily.
Elliot didn't say a word; he just followed her to the buzzer.
Casey pressed the buzzer and waited for her best friend to answer.
BUZZ. BUZZ. "Come on, Liv." BUZZ.
"Yes? Who's there?" Olivia, who was clearly very drunk, slurred in to the answer box.
"Liv, are you drunk?" Casey asked as she looked over at Elliot.
She could see the concern in his striking cerulean eyes. Elliot had never heard her be that drunk in a long time, which indicated that something was really troubling her.
"I sure fucking hope so." She slurred in response.
"Livvie, let us up." Elliot pleaded with the drunken brunette.
"Fuck off, Elliot. Go home to your wife and kids. I don't need you. Casey, you can come up." She said before buzzing in the red haired ADA.
Elliot was going to follow Casey up until she stopped him.
"Go home, Elliot. Do you want to piss her off even more?"
Elliot inhaled and exhaled deeply. "Ok but call me later to tell me how she is."
Casey nodded. "Now go home." She said softly before rushing up the stairs.
She jogged up to the forth floor before walking up to the door that said 4D.
"Liv, open up." Casey requested as she knocked on the door.
The door opened to reveal a very drunk Olivia. Casey sighed at her best friend in disapproval.
Detective Olivia Benson was wasted, worse then Casey had ever seen.
"You coming in or not?" Olivia asked before rushing off to the bathroom.
Casey walked in and closed the door behind her before walking in to the living room. On the coffee table, she found empty bottles of alchol and a pill bottle. Casey picked it up and read it. It was pain killers which had only been prescribed to Olivia that day and they were already open, which meant that Olivia had taken some with alcohol.
"Shit." She muttered to herself before hearing her best friend throwing up in the bathroom.
The red haired ADA rushed in to the bathroom to find Olivia kneeling in front of the toilet, throwing up. Casey sat behind her and held back her hair as she rubbed her back.
"Oh, Liv. How many did you take?"
Olivia stopped being sick and leaned back in to her best friend.
"How many pills did you take with the alcohol, Liv?" Casey asked as she smoothed back Olivia's soft brown hair.
"Only two. I just want the pain to stop. Just want it to stop." She replied in a weak whisper.
"Want what to stop? What pain, honey?"
Olivia just slowly shook her head without any intention of answering her best friend's question.
Casey sighed and caressed the detective's cheek. "Please don't shut me out, Olivia." Casey pleaded with her.
Olivia slowly dislodged herself from Casey's grip and stood up before flushing the toilet. "I'll tell you when I am ready to because I am not ready for you to hate me." She replied before walking off in to her bedroom.
Casey walked in to the living room and decided to use this time to call Elliot.
"How is she, Casey?" Elliot asked.
Casey sighed. "Terrible. She took two pain killers with alcohol and just finished throwing them up."
"She tried to kill herself?" He asked in panic.
"Ah no. I don't think so. She said something about wanting the pain to stop... Look, Elliot, I better go just in case she comes back out."
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
Casey must've fallen asleep on the couch because she was woken by the sun's ray shining through the living room window on to her face. She then noticed that Olivia was asleep beside her on the couch, looking very uncomfortable on the edge.
"Liv, wake up." Casey spoke softly as she gently shook her.
Olivia's eyes fluttered open and she looked up at Casey. "Hey."
"Hey. How long have you been lying here?"
Olivia looked at the clock. 6:02am was clearly displayed.
"About an hour. I woke feeling sick so I took some tylenol and I needed some company but I didn't want to wake you up." Olivia explained.
Casey nodded. "Are you ready to tell me what is eating you up inside?" She asked cautiously.
Olivia nodded and took a deep breath. "Yes, I think I am."
Ohhhhhhh, What's Liv hiding? Lol!!! All is revealed in the next chapter... Lol!
