AN: Very short I know but it's summer vacation y'all.
She was furious. How dare he out them to the reporters? How dare he meddle after she asked him not to?
She opened his office door. She looked over towards the two consultants that were in the room. "Can you both give me a minute with the President please? It's an urgent matter. Absolutely cannot wait." She smiled politely. She never lost her composure in public.
The consultants nodded and left. Mellie looked behind her to make sure they shut the door before she began speaking.
Fitz looked at her expectant. He was waiting to see what was so important.
She walked up to him and brought the magazine to his face. "What the hell is this Fitz?"
Fitz read the title and examined the picture. "That's you not being careful. That's you whoring around with MY Vice President. That's what that is Mellie."
Her eyes widened. She couldn't believe he used the word whore. Before she fully understood what she was doing she found her palm on his face. It hurt; she could tell by the way he flinched.
"No. That was you being Fitz. You couldn't just leave it alone could you? You're selfish. You have had someone by your side for years now and I've been here. Watching, hurting and swallowing my pride and now that I found someone you can't stand it. Do you really hate seeing me happy? Are you really that selfish? You don't love me, so why is it so hard to let someone else love me? Huh? Why?"
"Because he's not your husband. I'm your husband. You're suppose to be loyal to me. Do you know how stupid I look when people know you're sleeping with Andrew right under my nose? Do you know how humiliating that is?"
She was in shock at his hypocrisy. "Do I know? Do I know?" She shook her head. "You know what? I'm done. You made this mess so you clean it up. Tell the press you sent Andrew and I to do administrative work together. Tell them you were well aware of where I was that night and that you trust Andrew and I. Stop this from becoming another scandal because that is the last thing you need." She slammed down the newspaper & walked out.
Olivia lay her head on Fitz' chest. She smiled into his chest.
Fitz kissed the top of her head. "So how are you?"
"I'm fine. I have to clean up that Andrew and Mellie mess but with a few remarks from you, it should be all set. Other than that I'm fine." She got up to get dressed.
"Come on Liv, stay a little longer." He now noticed something was bothering her. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing... It's just. Why would you go through all that trouble to make them break up? Another sex scandal would only hurt your administration…"
He knew where she was getting. "I don't want her back. It's just...I don't want her with him. She could be with anybody but she chose him just to spite me."
"I don't think either of them are trying to hurt you. You're trying to hurt them because deep down you still love your wife. Maybe you're not in love with her but in your mind she's yours."
"Liv..."
"It's okay." She put on her jacket. "I'm leaving." He hadn't denied her accusations.
Andrew looked at the clock. Mellie was suppose to be there 30 minutes ago. He knew she was stressed so he prayed that nothing happened to her on her way. He stopped pacing up and down when he heard the knock.
He opened it to find Mellie looking straight at him. She didn't come in.
He reached out to take her hand and softly pull her in for a hug. "Mellie."
She kicked the door close and tightened her arms around him. "What are we going to do?"
"I was talking to Olivia earlier and she said she handled it. It's going to be okay."
She kept sobbing into his chest. "Mellie. Did you hear me? It's going to be okay. Breathe."
"Andrew... I'm pregnant." She mumbled into his chest.
