AN: I finally can freely update…so here's AAM :)
Not only was Abbie angry that Alex dropped into her office uninvited, she was actually saddened by the fact that Alex just doesn't get it.
Alex believes that the key to getting Casey is to go behind her back and threaten her girlfriend.
Abbie shook her head. How can Alex be so absentminded? She has thrown away relationship after relationship because of her selfish want of advancement in the workplace.
Abbie inhaled and exhaled… she had to somehow calm her nerves…The only person who was successful at that is Casey.
Abbie was also pissed because Alex's words got to her.
"Alex, Casey and I are…"
"A couple? I know…but the problem is…you are her rebound. If you get me in a room alone with her…you'll see that she only has eyes for me."
It's not true, Abbie tried to force herself to believe, however the voice of Alex Cabot haunted her.
She worked the next three hours on a homicide case that seemed to be air tight, full of evidence and witnesses…Abbie couldn't concentrate enough to write down her main points.
"I'll just finish this at home," She spoke aloud to herself. She grabbed her belongings and drove home.
She opened her apartment door and shook her head in dismay. Her brother once again was drinking her beer, sitting on her couch, and watching her TV. She would usually go off on him with a threat to kick him out, but the roughness of her day made her just pop.
"Get out!" She yelled at her pig of a brother. Why couldn't he just grow up?
Dave stared at her, "Why?" he asked not even fazed by the glare Abbie is giving to him.
"I let you live here to pick up your life, not mess with mine." Abbie angrily replied, "Get out. Grab all you need and…never mind I'll have your stuff sent to moms or wherever else you go." She stood by the open door and with her finger pointed out.
Dave watched Abbie's face expressions and learned that she wasn't kidding. He shook his head as he stood up, "I'll clean up my mess. You close the door and go get ready for some date…Casey called and said she's been texting and calling you…I told her I'll send the message." He shut the door and locked it.
She just walked passed him and entered her bedroom.
Yes, she was ignoring Casey's calls, only because she felt like a rebound, someone Casey can drop any second.
She dressed up, but not in a trench coat and underneath only bra and panties.
To her it all made sense now… Things with Casey is moving too fast, from the random I love you balloon and flowers, the lollipop, and not even a day of being together, Casey wants her to wear a trench coat with only a bra and panties under, probably for sex later.
Abbie was not an easy person, yet every time Casey spoke she melted at her knees. She wants to be protective of her, be by her side 24/7, and comfort her.
Nevertheless, she continues to be haunted by Alex, emotionally and physically. She had to end this once and for all.
She had to find out the truth from Casey and cease Alex's incessant harassment. However, she has to deal with Alex first. She grabbed jeans and a nice shirt, and headed out.
First stop, Alex's apartment. Abbie headed to the floor she remembered walking with Alex, all too well and knocked on her door.
Alex opened the door half a minute after. "Abbie?" Alex questioned with a confused face.
Abbie pushed her in and locked the door.
Casey opened her phone once again and sent another message to Abbie.
She was getting worried. Abbie did not answer her phone and she learned that Abbie left early from work.
She called Abbie and again she was sent straight to Abbie's voicemail. "Gosh, Abbie pick up your phone. It's Casey, again. Please baby I am worried about you. Call me back. Love you." Casey sent the voicemail and shut her phone and found herself pacing.
Where could Abbie be?
"Serena or Olivia would know…" Casey answered her own question out loud.
She quickly phoned Serena.
"Stop it, Olivia." Serena giggled on the phone.
Ew, Casey mouthed to herself. "Serena…sorry to interrupt your love fest but has Abbie called either of you?"
"Nope, why?" Serena asked.
"She hasn't been returning my calls…" Casey replied worried.
"She probably lost her phone…She does that a lot. I…uh…Fuck Olivia, I am on the phone…Just ..I got to go." Serena hung up before Casey could get a word in.
"Where are you, baby?" Casey spoke out loud as she dialed Abbie's number yet again.
"You know you're breaking and entering?!" A frightened Alex finally spoke.
Abbie stood by the door. "I am not breaking anything and you opened the door." Abbie answered emotionlessly.
"What do you want?" Alex asked confused.
"Well… I want you away from me and Casey. You keep barging in my office like you own it and telling me to end my relationship with Casey, but Alex you just do get it that she is happy now. Isn't that what you care about…I mean, it should be what you care about…to bad Casey is with me and I will always have that over you." Abbie replied tauntingly.
"No, you won't…Casey never canceled our Friday plans." Alex felt uneasy as Abbie started to advance.
"Casey left you… She hates you."
"No…" Alex started taking steps backwards as Abbie continued to advance towards her.
"Yes, and she doesn't want anything to do with you…She is done with you." Abbie replied, provoking something that she thought Alex never had…A mean right hook.
Alex aimed straight at the jaw.
Abbie, unsteady at her feet, grabbed her jaw and turned back at Alex. "Did you just punch me?" Abbie asked in disbelief.
Alex was holding her fist. She was never pushed that far before.
Abbie's crimson blood rolled down her cheek onto Alex's carpet. However, before Alex could comment on it, she was decked in the face with Abbie's fist.
She stumbled and fell on her ass.
Turning on her heels, Abbie walked out and shut the door behind her.
She was continually wiping the dripping blood from her face, hoping the cut wasn't as visible as she drove to Casey's apartment.
Before exiting the car she observed her cut again and wiped it with a tissue and hoped it stopped bleeding.
"This is going to leave a bruise." She pouted as she exited the car and headed up to Casey's apartment.
She knocked on Casey's door.
Casey opened up before Abbie could lift her hand up for the second knock.
"Oh, baby, I was worried about you." Casey's eyes zeroed in on Abbie's cut and immediately turned Abbie's face to get a good look at it. "What happened?" Casey asked worried.
"Nothing…sorry I'm late…Can we talk?" Abbie asked removing Casey's grasp on her face.
"You were gone for hours and you return with a cut on your face a huge purple bruise to go with it. You tell me why you didn't call me back or at least text me. Tell me why you look like you had been punched?" Casey started interrogating Abbie.
Abbie entered the apartment and sat down. How was she going to explain being at Alex's apartment or the reason she was there…
AN: What do you think? Alex and Abbie's 'fight' ? Does Alex truly want Casey or is it the fact that someone else has Casey that she selfishly wants Casey back? :) I will try to update Expectations tomorrow.
