How One Became Three [A SVU Fanfiction] ON HOLD

Six

Casey jumped as she heard her foster mother yell her name. She turned quickly and rolled down the window as she stared at Serena with wide eyes.

"Serena-"

"Casey Novak, you didn't follow the rules. You didn't tell me where you were going." Serena spoke as calmly as she could without screaming. She had been so scared, but also furious. She loved Casey and Alex as her own daughters, and it scared her just as much not knowing where Casey was as it does when Olivia doesn't tell her where she is going.

"Serena, I'm sorry. But I wanted-"

"I don't care what you wanted, and that you apologized. You know that if you break the rules that I set up, that I'd have to ground you. So grab your bag and go to the car." Serena huffed.

Casey rolled her eyes as tears welled in them. She rolled the window back up before looking over at Fisher.

"I'm sorry about her."

"Girl, you need to follow her rules or else I bet we will never be able to see each other again." Fisher frowned.

"But-"

"She looks really angry. You should probably go. I'll see you at school on Monday." Fisher spoke. He leaned in to kiss Casey again, but Serena opened the door from the outside and shook her head.

"Out, Casey." Serena ordered.

Once Casey and Serena were on their way home, Casey exploded.

"Why are you such a bitch?! You embarassed me in front of the only boy that has ever liked me!" Casey screamed.

"Excuse me?!" Serena exclaimed, as she quickly pulled over onto the side of the road. She didn't want to fight while driving and cause an accident.

"You yelled at me in front of Fisher! We weren't doing anything, but you came there and yelled at me as if you caught us fucking!" Casey yelled, her face red and tears on her cheeks.

"Casey, you are sixteen. He's almost eighteen, right? I know that you think that he-"

"I want to be with him, Serena! So leave me alone and mind your own damn business! Just because you are lonely, doesn't mean that I have to be!"

Serena stared at Casey for a long moment before pulling back onto the road. She could feel her face grow red as she tried to stop herself from exploding on the young girl beside her.

When Serena and Casey got back to the house, Serena locked the doors and looked over at Casey.

"If you are so unhappy in my house, then I can call your case worker and see if she can find you a better placement. Maybe someone who will let you do whatever you want with Fisher. Someone who won't care if you get knocked up in high school. I am sick and tired of you and Alex fighting. I'm tired of you disrespecting me and my rules. Tonight... tonight never should have happened."

"Kick me from the house. I don't care. I don't care about you, Alex, or Olivia. I'm tired of being grouped together with them. I'm my own person." Casey spat, and Serena nodded.

"Okay. Well let me make a few calls. Go pack your bags." Serena mumbled.

Olivia watched with tears slipping down her cheeks as she watched Casey be removed from the house. She didn't even say goodbye, and she seemed happy to leave.

"Why did you send her away?" Olivia sniffled, as she crossed her arms across her chest.

"Olivia-"
