L&O: Crossover

~Noah~

•Benson's Apartment (5:24a)•

"Morning my handsome man. Ready for school?" Benson asks.

"Yea I guess so. Its just really early."

"Yea...well its doesnt hell when someone went to sleep late," giving Noah a look.
"I know. Im sorry mom. I was working on something."

"What were you working on that kept you up?"

"It was a project for school. One for English and one for Social Studies."
"Oh. What do you have to do for those classes?"

"For English, we have to write 2 page essay about ourselves and Social Studies we have to create a diagram of the Boston Tea Party."

"Interesting...how are both of those coming along?" Benson asks sitting at her island in her kitchen taking a sip of her freshly made coffee.

"Well I have one more thing to add to my project before i can present it tomorrow." Noah states knowingly answering part of the question.

"And what about your essay?"

"I have to read my essay in class..."

"Thats good. When?"

"Today but I don't want to" he admits.
"Why? Noah what's wrong with reading your essay?"

"Everyone knows I'm adopted...but I don't want my friends to know my dad was a bad guy. I only wrote a little about it. Please don't be mad."

"Noah...why would I be mad? That is apart of your life and your friends don't have to know your dad was a bad guy. They just need to know that he loved you and that you have a super cool mom." she jokes pulling him in for a hug. She looks at him and continues, "Noah you are brave boy with a big heart. What your dad did, or I do doesn't define you. Share your story."

"Okay. Thanks mom."

"Ready to head to school?"

"Yea...OH! I almost forgot something" Noah exclaims.

"What is it?" Liv giggles.

"Here." Noah says handing Liv an envelope about the size of a birthday card.

"What's this?" Liv questions curiously.
"I'm not sure. I was told to give it to you."

"By who?

"The substitute teacher we had a few days ago"

Benson opens the envelope and by the look on her face Noah knew something was wrong.

"Mom, Did I do something wrong?" he asks trying to peek at opened contents.

"No...Not at all. Noah who was the name of your teacher that day?"

"Mr. Lewis. He asked me to give it to you. I'm sorry I forgot."

"Don't be. I'm glad you gave it to me. Come on...Lets get you to school." She says guiding Noah out. As she locks up the apartment she texts Elliott.

•OC Squad Room (7:38a)•

"How did Lewis get inti the school?"

"I have no clue," Benson whispers massaging her forhead.

Elliot looks at frustrated Olivia. He couldn't imagine how this case has been for her. From what he read...he regrets leaving.

"Liv-"

"We will. What is his game here? Why go after noah after a few weeks of nothing?"

"To terrorize me. To get revenge for his father. Could be a list of reasons." she says defeated.

"Probably but why Noah?"

"I dont know."

"I'll have Jet look into it"

"Thank you El...How are you doing? Have you been able to contact your brother at all?"

"No. Still figuring that out but I'm fine."

Liv nods and looks at Elliott. So many things said with just a stare. She rubs his arm before she leaves to her office. Elliott squeezes her hand and heads over to Vargas."Vargas I need you to keep survaillance on Noah's school and Benson's apartment."

"Can do. Is there something you need to keep an eye out for?"

"Not yet"
