CIAAA It's a New Day

Chapter 4

Taking a long lunch.

Olivia stood frozen …. she could not believe what her husband just agreed to do. Her boss., who is also her husband…just agreed to accompany her on her trip to California as a condition for their son, Thomas, making the trip.

He agreed to do full time daddy duty, for three days so she would not have to leave her new son behind at home...

Olivia was standing near his desk leaning on one of the chairs. She quickly threw it aside and adeptly pushed the contents off the desk aside as she flung herself halfway on the desk…. her hip hit the side of Fitz' desk as she sat and then spun her body around to face him…knocking papers, pens and books to the floor. The noise from the phone hitting the floor activated the intercom causing Lauren to come running into the room to make sure everything was ok.

She saw a disaster …with what some would conclude was the result of a disagreement between those in the room. What Lauren saw was Olivia Grant sitting in her husbands lap as they were both engaged in a kiss that could be considered very mature…..it was never what she ever expected in a business office and definitely not what she expected to see between this pair as they had taken such care to keep their personal life separate from their business life.

She stood for a moment in the door but exited as neither seemed to realize they had an audience.

As she was closing the door the door the other side of the room opened as Olivia's group also heard the loud noise from the officer intercom. After not getting a response from a knock they came bursting into the room.

They saw a room that had debris scattered all over the floor near the desk and their bosses locked in a x-rated kiss. While Lauren chose to leave both Harrison and Abby took in the sight before Abby moved over to them and poked then on the shoulder until they both broke the kiss.

"Look you two. What is happening here…this is an office not a motel or a boxing ring…..."

Fitz looked at the duo who remained in his office and offered his apology.

"Sorry guys…." He pointed to Olivia "she did it blame her."

Abby looked around at the floor, stepping over papers "I don't care who is the blame what happened?"

Olivia who did not realize the disorder she had caused when she nearly vaulted over the desk before landing in her husband's lap…looked around. She quickly got up from his lap and took a napkin d cleaned the lipstick from her husband's face.

"Sorry guys…"

"Sorry…a simple sorry won't work…. what happened?" Abby said as she looked at Olivia.

"Abby I just got a little carried away…it won't happen again."

"Olivia don't make that kind of promise. "Fitz said as a smile crossed his face. "I enjoyed it …. I liked the uninhibited Olivia. The Olivia who put her personal feelings before her job and I hope the aesthetics of the two of us locked in a lip lock was as much a joy to see as it was a joy to me..."

"No…No…No…. you two have worked so hard to keep the personal out of the office and now this. Who is supposed to clean this up?"

"I made the mess I will clean it up." …. Olivia said as she picked up the overturned chair and looked around at the littered floor.

'" Can we assume this wasn't an argument ...if so I'll return to my office." Harrison said as he turned to leave.

"Nope we are fine …we were celebrating not arguing."

"Would someone fill me in …...I don't need a full-blown explanation just sum it up. What did you two have to celebrate an hour after you arrived at work from home where you had spent the last 12 hours together."

"Abby …Fitz is going with me to California and Thomas is coming with us."

"Is that all…...an office destroyed because you two are taking a family road trip …...I don't want to be around when you guys have a real celebration. Is that it…...you two are leaving tomorrow night, together with Thomas."

Olivia dropped her head…." yes Abby."

Abby shook her head and headed out closing the door behind her.

Fitz looked around at the mess "Ms. Pope you made quite a mess. "

Mr. Grant Ms. Pope did not make this mess Mrs. Grant did.

OPOV

As Fitz stopped talking I saw the same glow in his eyes that I saw when we were at the altar. The gleam was back…I had my Fitz back and I would not wait one minute to be in his arms…business place be dammed…. I am going to put the most x-rated kiss on my husband that I possibly could. My husband was back. He was not seeing me with the fog of CB, he was seeing Olivia the woman he fell in love with. And I was not seeing him in any way other than as the man I love. The man who has forgiven me for deceiving him…I got my husband back.

FPOV

I told Olivia she could take Thomas with her if she allowed his dad to accompany him. I never expected what happened next. Olivia made a move that would put a gymnast to shame. I can't remember how she got from one side of my desk to the other …. Olivia was standing next to a chair...I saw a blur and the next thing Olivia was sitting on my lap and we were not conducting ourselves like we were in a business setting…not in the office of Grant CEO in the middle of the workday.

Olivia finished picking the papers, pens and books up…straightened the chair … made sure the phone was working properly and was about to return to her office.

"Olivia are you going to leave me like this can't we take a minute?"

"A minute and do what?"

Fitz stood up and showed his wife the tent in his pants

"A minute for this. "

Olivia gave her husband a look of disbelief

"Fitz as Abby said this is a business office not our bedroom and not a hotel." Olivia turned to walk out the office.

"Mrs. Grant this is not over."

"Mr. Grant, I hope it isn't over …. I look forward to your next move."

Fitz kept looking at his wife as she moved farther out of the room

"What am I supposed to do with this?" Fitz pointed to the tent in his slacks.

Olivia stopped and looked around "whatever you decide to do remember this is a business office and you are the CEO."

Fitz is the head of an international corporation, so he knows how to solve problems therefore he decided to solve this problem in his own way…...he asked Lauren to call Tom and let him know he was going out. Fifteen minutes later Huck got a call from Fitz asking him to drop Olivia off at her old apartment.

"Did you call Olivia to let her know what you just asked me to do. I think you need to clear it with her first…..." Huck paused waiting for Fitz to answer …when he did not Huck continued "Is she aware of what you just asked me to do? Fitz was still silent…." Why me?" Huck asked after Fitz remained silent

"Nope I did not call Olivia …. You are the only one I could trust to do it and not say anything. Huck I just need some time with my wife away from the office. At the same I don't want to do anything that will in any way demean her job at Grant, her job as your boss or as my wife. I don't want any gossip about our personal life in the office…... but I need to see my wife."'

"Ok I'll have her there in 15 minutes."

Huck walked down the hall and knocked on Olivas door…" Olivia I need you to go with me,"

"What's wrong…...is it urgent I'm putting the final papers together for tomorrow?"

"Yes, it is."

Olivia told Charlotte to let Fitz know she was with Huck if he asked and headed out with him.

"Where are we going Huck?"

"To your old apartment."

"Does this involve Fitz… Huck…Is he at the apartment?"

"Do you even have to ask?"

Olivia sighed loudly…..." Huck I never intend to put you in the middle of my personal life especially you are being asked to bring me to meet my husband for an impromptu meeting in the middle of the day."

Huck shrugged his shoulders…," He asked, and I agreed …it's not a problem for me. Your husband wants to see his wife…...not another woman…. his wife. Doesn't matter if it's the middle of the day or middle of the night…...he wants to see you …...He asked me to help and I agreed."

"He is doing what he can to protect your reputation. He doesn't want you two to be the subject of negative office chatter and I agree this is the best way to handle your time alone in the middle of the workday."

Olivia wondered what she did to deserve such devotion from Huck...

"He could have handled it in a different way but then I did tell him I was looking forward to his next move I guess he took me up on my dare. I can't be mad he just found a way that I never expected. I am just sorry he involved you."

"Olivia do you think this is a first in the history of man…... of a husband and wife. It's very common between a husband and an "other"…..would you feel better if he were meeting an other.

Olivia sat there listening to what Huck was saying….knowing he was telling her the truth…

" Huck I understand it just makes me feel so "typical."

"How typical did you feel when the two of you left the Christmas party early . It's life Olivia and you are married to the man you are meeting….stop overthinking it. I will not think any different of you. You convinced your aunt I was an ok guy you are the reason I now have a job I love …that's my Olivia …that will never change. You always played your life so safe…let go…...walk a little on the wild side this once. You may like this Olivia and decide to let her out more."

Huck reached over and touched Olivia's hand." …I'm going pick up lunch and finish my packing for the trip I'll pick you up in two hours."

"" Two hours?"

"Yes…no need to give Abby any opening, just make sure you return to the office just like you left. I'll pick up some sandwiches for the office while I am out. I'll call and let them know I'm bringing lunch back…... that will stop any comments from Abby."

"Huck you cover well…thank you. I am going to give Fitz a good talking to."

"No need he could have just as easily made this meeting with someone else. I see he cares about you and your reputation and I would do anything for him if it involves making you happy. See you in two hours."

Olivia smiled thinking about the surprises from her husband today as she hurried to the door. Just as she keyed it in it opened…. No one to be seen. As she walked into the room … the door behind her closed and there stood her husband in his shirt and his briefs …she noticed a bulge in his briefs...

"I hope you did not start without me?" Olivia said as he pulled her close for a kiss…her lips catching his shirt collar.

"Nope just keeping it ready. "Fitz said smiling as he unbuttoned and removed his shirt and briefs then started to fist himself…" Let me help you with your clothes you have too many on."

Olivia backed up "Nope no torn blouse or ripped zippers. I have to return to the office just like I left…otherwise your little deception was all for nothing."

"you better hurry up or we will be the source of water cooler gossip for the next six months because you have a minute to remove all your clothes or I will take them off one button at a time."

Fitz waited impatiently while Olivia undressed and placed her clothing on a chair nearly …. she then picked up his shirt and trousers that he had hastily dropped there when as he undressed... She turned to see her husband standing behind her about to grab her hair and pull her in for a kiss.

"Watch the hair keep the finger footprint light."

Fitz took her into his arms and walked them over to the bed…. he laid down and pulled her on top of him positioning her until she straddled his chest. Olivia could not remember any similar meetings between them but looking at him and seeing him fully hard and fully extended she told herself she would not let this be a one-time thing. Sex in the middle of the day…... so continental. It brought back stories she had read about the long lunches in Europe.

She knew she kept this apartment for more than writing and today she figured out another very good second use for it. This was a perfect hideaway for them. Mrs. Gold and/or Thomas were at the penthouse during the day and going to a hotel was out. If they were seen together it was fodder for gossip. If they were seen alone…. that was far worse. While a hotel visit had more of a scandalous feel, the familiarity of the apartment had just the right parameters.

He husband is a CEO…. being seen at a hotel is not the image he wanted to make no matter how sensuous and thrilling the immediate feeling from an illicit meeting would be. Nope…. the apartment was the perfect fit.

Fitz' comment took her away from her thought.

"Why are you worried about your hair I thought you wore it in a low bun today because you were anticipating a call from me. Does your boss know where you are?"

Olivia decided to play his game

"He thinks I'm in a meeting with a client….Does your wife know where you are?"

"I did not say where I was going. If she ask I will say I was with a client,."

"I hope we are not using the same client...do you think your wife even care. As long as the bills are paid and the kids are picked up from the day care… does she even care where you are?"

" My wife makes a pretty good salary so she never worries about the bills being paid and she has a nanny to take care of and pick up the kids but I hope she would care….at least a little. …why are we even talking about my wife?"

"You started it when you asked about my boss ….. looking at what you have on the menu for "'lunch" I am sure you wife cares about where you are and more than a little. Why do you want to know about my boss?"

"I asked because I heard he had a thing for you did he ever say anything to you about it …... did he ever ask you out ?"

All during this conversation both were placing kisses on the head, lips, and neck of the other one.

Finally Fitz moved his hand across his chest until he it reached her lower lips. He started to rub along the top of her core as he encouraged her to slide lower ….encouraging until she was sitting on his legs her core exposed to his hands.. . He could feel the wetness from her as she moved now she was positioned directly above his tool. She raised up a bit so she could rub her wet center against him just as his hand opened and slid his fingers along her from back to front finally spreading her lips and inserting one fingers rubbing his fingers from her clit all the way to her channel then inserting one finger…he just continued using his finger stopping at times to massage or flick his thumb against her clit all very slow and very steady..

Olivia began to moan….." there right there keep it right there."

The feelings from his fingers brought more moans of pleasure from her. Slowly she moved back some more so she would have room to stroke him…angling herself so they both could fondle the other one … placing one hand on the base and one on the head she began slowly rubbing it along the total length from base to head. As she slowly stroked him she became aware of the wetness coming from the head. He loved this as their hands manipulated each other . The sight of his wife with her head thrown back , mouth open grinding against his fingers as he inserted them deeper into her… he continued to flick her clitoris with is thumb as he set a steady rhythm with his fingers.

They were in sync , he moved his pelvis in the same rhythm as her hands…she was grinding hard against his fingers. This could go in all day….. each at the height of pleasure… each with enough control to stretch out this delightful pleasing feeling. The friction of her hands brought moans from him but he stopped her as she had started to speed up her strokes. Olivia tried to move her hand back to stroke him but Fitz would not allow it…."not yet sweet baby we have not finished talking about your boss."

"Why are you bringing him to this party?"

" Did you ever date him…..I'm Just wondering how you would compare me to him?"

"Nothing to compare because I never compare."

"Does that mean you have something to compare?".

Olivia let out a loud sigh as her channel began to quiver against the fingers . He sped up his strokes and crooked them to give her some extra enjoyment as she came down from her climax while still talking to her .

"Did he ever ask you out?"

"that's a yes ….I married him."

"Am I missing something why are you here with me in the middle if the day if you married him?"

"I guessed he went out for a morning pick-me-up after I refused him…so I thought if it's good for him its good for me. I hope he is enjoying himself as much as I am."

"He may not be… but I can assure you I am enjoying what he is missing. If I were him if you turned me down I would have gone all cave man."

"We work together that's a no, no."

"A no,no…I have heard stories about office sex. Why did you turn him down.?"

" Simple…..It was inappropriate."

"Being inappropriate worked out well….wouldn't you say."

"Mr. Grant it worked out very well."

" Yes …Mrs. Grant I agree."

Fitz turned her over on her stomach and motioned for her to get on all fours. He pulled her back against him as he slowly filled her….all the way to the hilt and started rocking…slowly and steady .. then reaching around her he massaged her breast slowly taking each nipple between his fingers….they both began to moan …on each stroke the moans became louder. The room was filled with sounds of flesh against flesh and their sounds of pleasure. Olivia moved her body so he could get a better angle and Fitz took the bait. … his strokes became faster , their moans became louder until he again felt the flutter from her as her channel gripped him as her orgasm hit. The only thing he could do was follow and follow her he did.

Fitz did not know if it was the role playing , the midday sex or just how his wife just adapted so seamlessly . Sex with Olivia is always better than good but today would make the top five…maybe even the top three. They both collapsed on the bed too spent to move.

"do you think we can do this again soon?" Fitz asked

" We both have jobs with a lot of responsibility I would hate for this to become a norm I would rather it remained a treat,"

"Did you enjoy it?"

"you Dammam right I did," Olivia answered

" ok not a normal thing but something we both know we would definitely enjoy doing again….."

"that's a date…how did you get here… did Tom drop you off?"

" he's going to pick me up in half an hour?"

"He's going to know we were together he's dropped me off here enough to remember my address."

" I had him drop me off a block away at the diner. I told him to pick me up in two hours I did not know how long it would take for you to get here.. I have another hour. This was fun… …..lets have seconds I'm ready and willing how about you."

.

Olivia looked down at her husband. She could not believe he was already showing signs for seconds and she was not about to refuse since she thought seconds sound like great idea.. This time he placed her legs on his shoulder spreading her body wide and got the absolute repeat of the kind of sex that makes one want to repeat it over and over again.

His second orgasm stripped all the control from him. One more like that and he knew he would not return to work today.

"Olivia … that was indescribable. I'm so glad you decided no-sex in the office. I could have had a quickie there and missed all his... This was fun…a real treat."

"Fun…now we have to sneak back to work…you go first in first."

" Do you think anyone will believe our act."

"I don't know but it's the best I could do . I had to improvise after I was told no when I suggested having sex in my officer during business hours., which I agree is a very necessary and good rule because you can get loud and it's a good rule businesswise."

"my rule did not work we still had sex in the middle of the day. "

"yes but not in the office or on company property."

" but….on company time,"

" check it off as a special assignment for your boss."

" babe you are shameless…I love you Fitzgerald Thomas Grant."

" Wow….full name …that lets me know you are really telling the truth . …why else would you risk your job and reputation for a quickie unless you really love me."

"I would not call what happened here a quickie. I am enjoying being your wife….today could have not gone any better. First you and Thomas are coming with me to California and then you whisk me away for some super unplanned sex ….awesome husband I might just keep you forever."

The two showered and dressed, Fitz exited through the rear exit and made it back to the diner just as Tom was pulling up. The two rode back to the office without any conversation. Instead of letting Fitz out in front of the building Tom pulled into the garage. When he parked the car and before Tom opened the door he turned to Fitz to ask if he could talk to him. Fitz nodded…,wondering what this was about. Maybe Tom could not take the trip with them . Because Huck was going Fitz decided to use a driver at the west coast office for he and Olivia. Huck could ,and would, protect Olivia but with Thomas going along he felt Tom should accompany them.

"What is it Tom?"

"Mr. Grant" …..Mr. Grant….Fitz knew this was more serious than a missed trip.

Mr. Grant … this is none of my business but I know you did not have lunch in the diner. One of two things …First since there is lipstick on your collar so we need to change your shirt….I have a spare in the trunk. My guess… you met your wife since her old apartment is around the corner . If you met someone else other than your wife I am asking that you find another driver. I like Mrs. Grant and I refuse to be a party to you cheating on her…although I don't think you are…. I believe you met her.. If you were meeting someone else you definitely would pick another spot to meet."

Fitz listened dumbfounded…his driver of ten years was willing to quit rather than be a party to any misbehavior by him.

"Tom…,you are right I was with my wife. I did not want her to become the fodder for office gossip or cause her any kind of disrespect so I chose to handle it this way. I guess I'm not as devious as I thought I was."

" nope you lack philandering skills of which I hope you never develop. … it's the address and the lipstick….it is the same as Mrs. Grant wears. Also I saw Huck parked across from the apartment as I came to pick you up… . Just tell me if you decide to take a couple of hours off during the day. I can set something up that protects you, her and the company….I can keep your personal business personal. Next time just tell me."

" I did not have a lot of time to plan this out. since I can't depend on you staying with me if I decide to cheat I guess I will need your help when this happens again. And it will happen again but not too often… Are you still going with us tomorrow?"

"since we have straightened your lunch appointment out of course."

" Tom …..you really would have given up being my driver?"

"yes…she is a special lady."

" You could have used my philandering as blackmail."

Nope….not my style. I would never have told her but if she had asked I would not have lied. I hope you would have allowed me to keep my job in fleet procurement."

"Tom I have learned a lot about you today …. Your devotion to Olivia I would never have guessed."

" I have know her for years….before you met her. I remember her working summers while she was in college. As Olivia Pope she always spoke even before we shared the same lunch table ….About once a week we had lunch together.. She was hard to pry away from her office so she did not eat with us a lot.. Everyone always made comments about her hiding … every day hiding in her cubbyhole having lunch alone. Cyrus would run her out about once a week then she would join her other three friends. Lauren met Harrison when he was first hired so she migrated to the table with him, Abby and Huck. Because of you I knew Lauren so we all shared a table . Mrs. Grant was always kind of quiet , never saying much. It was like she was taking everything in, filing our conversation away . We all discovered she has a wicked sense of humor. Subtle but wicked.

Fitz looked at his shirt collar and began to remove it .

"you knew her when she worked for Cyrus?"

"I knew her through Lauren…..I was glad when you two got together . You are good for each other."

"You , Lauren, my parents…all knew her…how did I miss her?"

"You were in college when she worked summers here…and she spent a lot of time away from the main office learning the company. I see now your father was grooming her.

. When she started working for Cyrus she stayed holed up in her office. And you ….… you developed other interest."

"Other interest….that smarts Tom…..is that what you call my years with Mellie."

"That life is behind you…lets not bring it up….you are happy now that's why I had to make sure you were not about to spoil the best thing that could ever happen to you."

"you must really like her if you would leave me."

" not a lot of women like her around."

"Tom I know that already. She has me and now four other men looking out for her …really five if I count my father… .She's definitely a keeper."

"Sir…don't ever forget that."

Tom went into the trunk and handed Fitz a shirt which he hastily changed into before leaving the car

By the time he got off the elevator he saw Olivia talking to Huck in the hall. He quickly went to his office to see if he had any other telltale signs of the morning outing. Satisfied that he was safe he paged Olivia to his office.

She came almost floating in without and any apparent lag from their outing.

"Mr. Grant how can I help you?"

"Ms. Pope you have already helped enough. Did you have a chance to check with our mothers to see if they were interested in coming along on our trip?"

"yes both want to come along and decided to bring our niece along which is good company for Thomas. They both think he needs to get used to being around other children. I hope you don't mind the grandmother's taking over."

"Good idea."

Fitz walked over to Olivia .

"They are right and I think out son is getting weary of us that's why it's getting harder to get him to sleep. I never thought about it before. It is a good idea….thank God for the extended family. Anything else?"

"you would not believe the conversation I had with Tom."

Olivia waited for Fitz to continue. He walked up to her and put his arms around her his chin resting on her head,. He began to speak so softly she could barely hear him.

"Olivia Grant I don't know what you do to make so many men protective of you. Vance did not even know who you were and he protected you. Both Huck and David hid your identity , " Fitz felt Olivia flinch….. pulling her back he continued " don't deny it . My dad would probably fire me before he would you and now Tom,"

Olivia pulled back to look at him ,"Tom"

"Tom"…..he outed us…he guessed my outing was not a business meeting mainly because of the lipstick on my shirt. He guessed it was you but told me without any hesitation that if were cheating on you I needed to get another driver. Mrs. Grant I don't know what you have done to make so many men want to protect you…"

The rest of the day went without incident but both were back to their relaxed pre-marriage demeanor the rest of the day. The sandwiches from Huck stopped Abby from making any comments relating to her being out of the office . She did make a couple of comments trying to see where she and Huck had spent their time away from the office but the sandwiches and their trip the next day provided a good cover….. Olivia reminded herself….. never underestimate Abby not to revisit today at a later time.

. Olivia thanked Tom and after discovering the lipstick marked shirt was in the trunk she ordered a half dozen to be deliver the following day by noon.

That night both slept well….CB was definitely behind them the events of today proved that but Olivia was biding her time …she wanted to know when did Fitz find out and how did he get the notebook.
