A/N: Sorry this chapter is short. I shall do better on the next one. I am distracted by watching Diane Neal on White Collar at the moment and wishing it was tomorrow already so I could see the two new SVU episodes. :) Have a good night everyone and tell me how you all feel about the story so far.

Chapter 3:

Alex woke up about five in the morning, looked up at Olivia, and smiled. They had slept on the couch. She quietly got up and made her way to the kitchen for a glass of water. She was tired, but she had to get ready for the day.

Ringggg. Ringggg. "Benson. Yup, give me twenty minutes, I will be there."

"Let me guess, you have to go?"

"I am sorry hun."

"Let me come with you. I could see the scene first hand and can try my case better once it goes to court."

"You are way too convincing Counselor."

"I know Detective, plus I get to be with you."

"Ok, get ready."

They arrived to the scene about a half hour later when Elliot approached them.

"No sign of break in, boyfriend hasn't been around, nothing," Elliot said.

"Oh ok, El. I am going to talk to her."

"Ok."

After they were finished at the crime scene, Olivia and Alex went their separate ways. Alex had a long day in court and Olivia was working hard on this new case. They agreed to meet for dessert after their shifts.

"Hi babe, I hope you don't mind, but I bought you something to wear on our date. It will be dropped off at your apartment at 8pm. I can't wait to see you." Alex hung up, sighing that she only got Olivia's voicemail.

Olivia heard the voicemail and could only think that after a week Alex was spoiling her. Olivia smiled and went to grab her coat to leave.

Dessert was great and Alex and Olivia said their good nights. A sweet kiss on Olivia's lips was all Alex needed to be complete that night.
