Olivia sat wide-eyed staring at the blonde.

"Liv?" Alex said.

"Did you just say what I think you said?" Olivia asked.

"Well what do you think I said?" Alex joked.

"That the Alex Cabot is pregnant." Olivia joked back.

"Well actually the Alex Casey is pregnant." She corrected.

"Oh my gosh...you're pregnant." Olivia said hugging Alex.

"I think we established that." Alex said hugging the sergeant back.

"How far along?" Olivia asked after they ended the hug.

"4 months." Alex answered.

"Do you know the gen-" Olivia was interrupted by a knock at the door.

"I'm sorry, let me get that." Olivia said as she stood up. She opened the door to see her partner standing on the other side.

"Nick? What are you doing here?" Olivia asked confused.

"We caught a case and I was across the street at the diner so I figured I'd just stop over instead of calling. Cap'n wants us at the precinct in 10." Nick explained.

"Crap..ok give me a minute." She said as she invited him in.

"I'm so sorry Alex. We caught a case." Olivia said as she grabbed her gun and badge.

"It's ok, Liv. Duty calls." Alex said with a smile. Noah started to cry with all the commotion going on around him.

"Crap! I need to call the baby sitter." Olivia said worriedly.

"I can watch him for you." Alex suggested.

"You sure?" Olivia asked.

"Yeah! I need some practice anyway." Alex said.

"Ok. Bottles are in the cupboard above the sink, formula in the fridge, toys are in the box by his changing table, and-"

"Liv" Alex cut her off.

"What?"

"I've got it. Go get the bastard." Alex said with a reassuring smile.

"Ok! Call if you need anything!" Olivia said as she put on her coat. She walked over to Noah and gave him a kiss. "Ok Noah, mommy will be back soon. Be good for Aunt Alex!" She gave him one last kiss and walked to the door where Nick was waiting.

"He better be good!" Alex joked.

"Liv, we gotta go." Nick reminded her.

"Thanks again, Alex. I will call you as soon as I leave the precinct." Olivia said as Alex shoved her out the door.

"Just go Liv!" Alex said and she shut the door. She walked over to Noah and picked him up.

"Hey little dude. What do you wanna-" Alex was cut off when Noah decided to puke all over her.

"EEWW!! Noah!!" She screamed as she put the baby back in the swing. He looked up at her and gave her a toothless smile.

"That was not funny!" Alex said as she walked to the bathroom.
