AN: Maybe, just maybe. I am a little cruel. I left you guys hanging. I I think this chapter ends in a little cliffhanger too. However, I am very delighted to say this chapter is pretty cool. Psst…at all of you A/C lovers…I just think that…Olivia and Casey's Relationship really never was shown. It's just for the next 20 chapters…lol..jk…but I think you will enjoy it a little more than you think. I promise I will go back to the totally hot Alex and Casey :). Hey, I didn't wait till Wednesday. Thanks for the Reviews…a record number of 11 reviews came in for the last chapter.

Chapter 12

"I don't know why you are trying to hide this. Everyone knows that you don't like Alex."

Once those words flew out of his mouth, if felt a sudden relief. That was a close one. I am trying to keep myself from screaming or laughing in joy that he did not…That was a close one, right? I can't believe this.

I just have to refrain myself from smiling. "I know…I am trying to fix that." I remember Alex was under my desk and I smile, "You know Alex, she is so spoiled and a brat. She can't keep her hands to herself. She screws people over..." Alex hits me. I try not to laugh. "What does that have to do with you?" I ask.

"Olivia thinks you are still jealous of Alex. She told me the other night…"

"I think this is so funny how Olivia tells you all this stuff and she doesn't speak to me. I really need you out of my business. I don't care what you think. If Olivia wants to tell me something she will. Where is she?" I ask with anger and annoyance in my voice.

"Look, I just don't want her to get hurt, ok. She loves you and she hates how you are so distant from her lately. She thinks is because of the time she invited Alex to your house…"

"Elliot…look, I like you as a detective, but as a person you are very annoying. I'll talk to her later if that helps you. Please, get out of our business." I beg of him. What's wrong with this guy?

He smiles as if he achieved something. "Ok. I am out of your business." He walks out the door.

I stand up and walk to the door to lock it. I see Alex get out.

I don't know what to think. Should I be furious at Olivia or just plain pissed off at this whole situation? I didn't need to mention, to Olivia, that night that Alex slept over without my permission, because maybe…I wanted her there. Ugh!

I see Alex dusting herself off. "That is the last time I am being shoved under a desk. Next time you come to my office." I guess she is trying to get me to smile.

I don't want to. "Yea." I head for my desk. She sits in the seat in front of me.

"Look, if you want to talk to Olivia…I understand. I'll see you later?" She is so caring.

"I actually…I really don't want to see her right now." I'm distant? She is the one who is distant. She didn't even think to tell me she was going undercover. She didn't even call me. She sends Elliot to do her shit. I don't even want to see her face.

"Casey, you have a lot on your mind. Why don't we go out for lunch at Jake's and relax a little bit. It will be great for you. The fresh air..." How did I miss this girl? She was right under my nose the whole time I never stopped to notice her, but she noticed me.

I gaze into her blue eyes. "I would love that," I lean to kiss her. I grab my bag and leave the office with her.

Jake's

We just finished our lunch and just sat down.

After a long silence, Alex decides to keep me out of my thoughts.

"Hey, what are you thinking?" She gazes at me with her icy blue eyes.

"A bunch of things…"

"Would you like more Sprite?" The waiter interrupted our conversation.

I nod. She pours and struts away.

I take a sip. Alex stares at me.

"What?" I smile as I take another sip.

"Nothing…just… you are beautiful." She smiles.

"Thanks, you are not too shabby yourself." My phone vibrates.

Hey…its Liv…I just found out what Elliott did to you. I DID NOT send him I swear. I totally blanked on calling you the other day so I sent Elliot to call you. Look, I just want to meet somewhere…at my apartment? Look, I know you are probably pissed…just reply if you can make it.

I stare at my phone. I close it. I am not going to reply. I'm probably pissed? No Olivia, pissed is putting it lightly.

"Who was that?" Alex notices the pissed off look on my face.

"Nothing…so you're ready?" I just going to hope she drops it.

She shrugs, "Ok. Let's go."

I follow her to the car.

She starts the car. I put my seat belt on and lay back.

"So… you are not going to tell me who made you so pissed all of a sudden?" She asks

"I really don't want to…" I close my eyes. Maybe if I don't move she won't talk to me.

"Casey…come on…I love to listen…just vent…it will make you feel better…I promise." She looks at me as we come to a stop.

"Ok…Olivia texted me…to see her…I just…I'm not in the mood to be talking to her right now. I don't want to fight right now. I just want to relax."

She fixes her glasses. "How about we both head back to work? You can clear your head and I will finish up my motions…then we can talk about what you want to do…sound cool." She replies as we enter the garage.

She is most beautiful when she cares so much. I nod my head.

My Office

I am actually focusing now and it is a good feeling. I finished several motions. I went over case and I am on a roll.

I actually left my door open, so I don't have to say come in all the time.

I am so divulged in my work that I didn't notice McCoy knock on my door. "I would like to speak to you for a moment if you don't mind."

I nod as he shuts the door. I wonder what he wants. I motion him to take a seat, to which he always refuses. I give him my undivided attention.

"I see that you are working well and I want to cut your probation short, starting tomorrow of course. ADA Cabot tells me you are ready. I agree, you don't need to be watched as much and you will get more cases. Welcome Back." He nods towards me and heads out.

"Thank you." I say as he opens the door.

Did Alexandra Cabot get me out of the dog house? I am out of probation! I am not a failure. My pay is back up and I am super happy. I want to celebrate.

I call my mom, and dad. They are so excited for me. They are more than excited. I am excited. I won't screw up this time, that's for sure.

As I am about to call a floral arrangement for Alex as a thank you, Olivia sent me a text.

Casey, Can you please call me. I haven't heard from you in what feels like days. Can you please call or text back.

I shut the phone off. My hand brought up to my face. How something could turn your happiness to sadness. I grabbed my office phone and called Jim's Floral Shack. I ordered 3 dozen roses and a box full of white chocolate. I remember when we were drinking one night with the SVU team and Alex mentioned a guy sent her a box full of dark chocolate, when he knows she loved white.

I smile to myself. I am so lucky I am attentive and interested in stories. The earliest he can deliver them is in forty five minutes, which is good.

It's around six and I am almost done with going over the facts of this rape homicide. It sucks seeing this and trying to build a case out of nothing, but that's what I do for a living.

I look to see Olivia at my office door.
