AN:So this is just a piece of random filler but it makes sense

Casey Novak and Olivia Benson were sitting chatting in a cafe when Olivia had taken a break. Casey, after being disbarred had moved away from New York. She had decided to visit the city and had bumped into Olivia and they decided to catch up.

"Are you wearing perfume, Olivia Benson?"

"Maybe a little. But why can't I just make myself smell nice? One of the few pleasures in life that I have the chance to enjoy."

She sniffed at her "Is that-?"

"Yes, Casey. It is indeed Black XS. Now let's drop it. My perfume choice is unimportant."

"Olivia Benson, for as long as I have known you, you never bring out a bottle of Paco Rabanne for work."

"What's the point of having it unless I don't use it?"

"Who is it?" she asked, teasingly

"Who is what?" she asked, knowing full well what she meant

"What's his name?" she asked in that rather annoying tone "Come on, there has to be a guy involved. Do I know him?"

"I am not-" she looked over and collapsed in resignation "Ok. You do know him. But I'm not telling you-"

"Is it Jacob Maldin-something?"

No, it is not Jacob Maldenaber

"Oo! oo! Is it Derek, the cute waiter? The one with the eyes?"

"No, it's not Derek and you are not going to guess because I will not stoop to your level."

"Come oonnnn. I won't tell anyone. Ooo does Elliot know who it is."

"Yeah. But you won't get it out of him because he is sworn to secrecy."

"Olivia, sweetie. You can take Casey Novak out of the justice System but you can't take the justice system out of Casey Novak. Come on tell me. I know you're lying and I will get it out of Elliot if you don't tell me."

"Case, please just leave it. All I can say is that he's on the job and if anyone found out we'd both be in serious trouble. Anyway, I have some news. Nearly twenty-one years ago I had a kid. I named her Amy, before her father took her away from me and left. I never saw her again. I met her yesterday for the first time in twenty years. Her name is Amerie Jessica Phillips, she's married and she has a three year old daughter."

"Wow. That is- that is amazing."

"I know. I have a daughter, a grand-daughter and a son-in-law."

"I'm calling Elliot to find out who you're dating."

"No you're not, I told him not to say anything to anyone."

"OH! MY! GOD!"

"What?"

"It's Elliot, isn't it?"

"Hey, hey no. We're just partners."

"On the job, Elliot knows. Come on you never tell anyone especially not Elliot in case he goes and threatens the guy."

"Eww, no he's like my brother."

"Liar."

"No, I'm not lying."

"That was an awful quick answer Olivia Benson."

"But you are dating him." She stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world

"I'm leaving now." She said, getting up.

"That was incredibly immature and it only confirmed my theory. I think it's great that you guys have each other as more than partners. Have you told Cragen?"

"No, but Elliot's retiring in less than a year, so we're gonna hold off on saying for as long as we can."

"AHA! I KNEW IT!" shouted Casey, excitedly

"Case." Said Olivia frustratedly

"Ok I promise I won't tell. My lips are sealed."

"They better be."

"Scouts honour" she mimed a zipping motion across her mouth

"Listen, I gotta go, Chad is making noodles."

"Oohh, Chad?"

"Hey, at least he's not in the same profession as I am."

"What, disbarred lawyer?"

"That was a low blow, Liv."

"Sorry. I wasn't thinking."

"It's fine, I was joking. Anyway, he's chief of surgery in Michigan. I'm just visiting some family who wanted to meet him."

"Wow, married to the chief?"

"No, just dating. And then some."

She laughed "Say no more Case."

"Though I wouldn't mind..."

"Just as long as I'm invited."

"Sure thing. Right back at you."

"Hey, I gotta get back, you wanna come and say hi to everyone?"

"Yeah, let's go."

They walked for a few minutes chatting about stuff and catching up with each other. Before they knew it they were in the bullpen.

"Hey guys look who I found trawling the streets of New York."

"Casey, hi." Said Don, happily

"How you been, girl?" Said Fin, pulling her into a bear-hug.

"I'm great. How are you guys?"

"Same old, same old." Said Elliot wrapping his arms round their ex-lawyer and good friend as soon as Fin let go.

"I know" she whispered in his ear

He released her, only to have Munch swoop in and repeat the gesture. He glanced a question at Olivia who was pointedly looking at Casey, who was currently being smothered by Cragen.

Elliot and Olivia sat in Olivia's kitchen, later on that evening, talking.

"When I hugged Casey earlier, she said 'I know'. What did she mean?"

"She may have guessed about us."

"May?"

"Ok she guessed. But she promised to keep it a secret."

"If she can guess what's to say-"

"How bout we pretend we're fighting?"

"No."

"But-"

"No, Elliot. It'd just draw attention to it. We just gotta be more careful in work."

"Ok. You wanna watch a movie?"

"Is that you asking me to sleep with you?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No. Diehard's on in a half hour."

"Suu-re." She rolled her eyes

Mehh just a random piece of filler thought I'd just use Casey so they'd reveal to everyone but no such luck, these are tough cookies. Oh well next chapter shouldn't take too long.
