A/N I'm HORRIBLE because I forgot to tell you all I was on vacation. Forgive me and Enjoy! Chapter 7
RECAP
Olivia crossed her arms and her lip began to quiver. He wasn't okay. He was far from it. And it hurt like hell for her to know she was the reason. Why would he act as if everything was fine and dandy. She could feel the anger rising.
"Fitz, you're still mad aren't you?"
He didn't answer
"Fitz" She yelled one last time as he was about to turn the knob and walk out. "Please, talk to me. I need you to... . " She screamed as her voice felt like it was shattering into a million pieces.
He turned around slowly to face her and she was met with the saddest eyes. The moment Fitz had avoided last night in the darkness was now happening in the light. His eyes were puffy and his face was red. Her heart clenched and the tears that were now in her eyes began to fall.
...
Olivia stood there staring at her husband and the one question that kept reoccurring through her mind was, "How did we get here?" But she shouldn't need to ask that question. She knew how. She really wanted to know why did they get to such a point. She would have never imagined feeling the hurt like she did in this moment but it was there and it wasn't going away until they really talked it out.
Fitz walked back, setting his phone and keys down on the table they previously laid on. He leaned against the table, placing his hands on top of it. He turned his face back to Olivia who stood there with her hands securely wrapped around her body. He knew he needed to be the first to speak because his actions weren't right. He was wrong for leading her to believe he'd forgiven her.
"I thought I could fuck my way into forgiving you last night. I thought that if I fucked you good enough, it would make up for the past month. I thought it would make up for the time lost... I don't know why but I did. And you telling me that you thought about another man. About being with him, giving yourself to him. It hurts." He sighed deeply before slowly making his way to sit on the couch.
Olivia watched him as he moved and everything started rushing out of her. She couldn't control anything anymore. She began speaking as she moved to the middle of the living room floor in front of the coffee table.
"I never wanted to hurt you or hurt us. It was all a mistake but it only happened because I thought I was losing you." Fitz looked up in shock hearing such words come out of her mouth. "Now I see how stupid I was being but I couldn't help thinking that at the time. I'm used to being spoiled by you. It might sound selfish but when you do those things I know you're thinking of me. I understood in the beginning that work was keeping you so busy but it seemed like work was all that mattered." She paused to take a breath and wiped her fallen tears. "And at first I didn't think too much of his flirting but he was showing me the attention that I needed and missed so much. I won't lie and say I didn't enjoy it because I did. But it turned from an innocent office interaction to a guilty pleasure. I'm ashamed and i'm sorry." She finished even though her voice was cracking as she spoke.
She rocked back and forth uncomfortably, sniffling, and trying to control her tears. Before she knew it she was taking off upstairs to their bedroom. Fitz jumped up to his feet when he saw her run and contemplated running up after her. Everything she just told him repeated in his mind. He thought of all random acts of love he would do for her just because he wanted to. He remembered how he gradually became busier and things got more hectic at work. The gifts and surprises got smaller and out of nowhere just stopped. He didn't think that such a thing could take such a huge toll on her. He knew they were special but he didn't know how special.
Olivia could be having one of the worst days of her life and a text from Fitz saying how much he loved and adored her would turn her work day all the way around. A surprise bouquet of flowered, different each time, would light up her face. Anything he would do, big or small, made her happy. He saw that now. He couldn't tell you when was the last time he thought to do something for her. Time really wasn't on their side nowadays.
He hadn't realized that him not spoiling her and giving her the attention she needed and wanted reflected how her days and weeks could go. Things went from spontaneous to routine: Something neither one of them thought would ever happen to them but sometimes life gets away from you.
Fitz stood there for a second longer before making his way up the stairs. He saw that their bedroom door was shut closed but he could hear her on the other side. Through her sobs, he could hear her talking to someone. He listened as she recounted the events of yesterday over the phone to someone and he wondered who it could be.
He backed away from the door remembering that her cell phone was downstairs laying on the table so she had to be on the house phone. He walked into the guest bedroom and sat on the side of the bed. He carefully picked up the line and covered up the end of the phone receiver while he listened to Olivia's conversation.
It was her dad.
He heard Eli in his attempts to calm Olivia, which she finally did. Then he heard him begin to speak.
"Liv, listen to me. I know you and Fitz have had a rough time but it's nothing you two can't get through. You both are married, to one another. You are of one flesh, one body, one mind, one soul. Whenever there are problems, you have to take them up with your husband, no matter what you think will happen. You have to stay true to him but most of all to yourself. I've watched you both together for years and no one loves you like he does; probably never will. And you the same. You can't let temptation get a hold of you. This Antonio character will not mess up your marriage. You won't let it. Nothing has happened or will happen. You need to go to your husband. You both need time to yourselves, away from work. Away from distractions. Find time to reconnect. Don't ever doubt your love for Fitz and his for you. Do you understand me?" Eli questioned to his daughter.
A shaky breath could be heard on the line before she said ,"Yes, dad. I understand".
"Good. Instead of staying on the phone with me telling me what's happened I want you to go to your husband and love him. If I need to call Fitz and talk some since into him too, just let me know. For now just.. be, there, in the moment with him. Let God guide you. I love you, baby girl."
"I love you too, daddy" Olivia sighed before ending the phone call. She stood up from the bed and was walked to the bedroom door and when she opened it, Fitz was standing there. He had made his way from the guestroom to their door as he listened to Eli's wise, comforting words. He stood and waited for her to hang up the line to hang up himself. He wanted to commit this moment to her. He didn't want to run anymore. They'd spent enough time away from one another already.
He looked up to meet her eyes and gave her a gentle smile. She looked and saw that he was holding the house phone in his hand and looked back to his eyes.
"Yes, I heard everything and I..I'm sorry."
Olivia pulled her arms around her body, something she did when her emotions were getting the best of her. It made her feel a moment of comfort. She ran her hands along her arms and dropped her head down to the floor.
Fitz felt foolish and stupid and slowly made his way inside past her. He sat at the foot of the bed before whispering to her to come here. Olivia took a moment but then turned around slowly in his direction. His hand was held out for hers and she walked towards him. Placing her hand in his. He pulled her closer to him and positioned her between his legs. He draped her hand around his neck and seated her on his thigh while interlocking the fingers of their free hands together.
Olivia slid her arm further around his shoulders and rested her head against his; her lips hovering over his ears. He gripped the side of her waist with his left hand and listened to her breathing as it evened out and she relaxed.
"I love you.." Olivia whispered in his ear. "...I'm sorry too" She added before Fitz slowly leaned back allowing their eyes to meet.
"Do you forgive me?" She asked.
"I do. As long as you forgive me." He confessed. She searched his eyes for any hesitation and when she found none, a lone tear fell from her eyes. He kissed the tear away and his lips traveled up to her eyes. He placed soft kisses on each one, letting his lips linger on her eyelid after his final kiss. Olivia unlocked her hand from his wrapping it around his neck along with her other arm. She hugged him tightly and buried her face in the side of his neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist with all his strength but without hurting her.
Olivia got lost in the feeling of him; being in his arms and holding him as if her life depended on it She thought about how crazy things had gotten and how quickly things they escalated. In this moment she couldn't love her husband more. Her dad was right. Nothing truly physically happened between her and Antonio and nothing ever would.
Olivia whispered to him reassuring words of her love and how he was it for her. She would never give him any reason to worry. She was ready to work on their relationship. Fitz responded to her in the same manner. He was ready to get back to being the man she married. He wanted to be nothing less than that. He placed kisses along her neck after each statement was spoken.
They'd spent close to half and hour embracing one another before they pulled apart. Fitz took off his shoes and slid back onto the bed. Olivia was still in her robe but was naked underneath. She cuddled up to him, laying her head on his chest.
Fitz was feeling a little better but he knew the issue of Antonio still had to be addressed. He placed an arm around her and rested his other hand on her head. He took this time to speak his mind. He needed to. It was either now or later.
"So, I want to be there when you address Antonio."
Olivia stiffened a little in his arms. She knew that it would have to happen but she didn't know if it was a good idea for all three of them to be together. She looked up into his eyes before speaking.
"Are you sure. I don't want to put you in that position. I can handle it on my own."
"No. I need to be there. He needs to know that I am your husband and that anything that he thinks is between you two does not exist. I am your husband and I need this. Okay?"
"Okay." She agreed with sadness in her voice. She still felt so horrible about the situation. She didn't want to put Fitz through anything any longer. She wanted to forget all that happened and focus fully on her marriage. Fitz sensed her hesitation and cupped her face.
"I faltered in being the man I am supposed to always be. I can't and won't blame you so you can't blame yourself. We both have work to do on ourselves and in this marriage. We love each other too much. Do you hear me?" Olivia nodded her head frantically before assuring him with her words.
"Yes" She said barely above a whisper. Fitz saw the regret in her eyes but he saw the need their also. They were looking deep into each other's eyes and hadn't realized how their faces were gravitating towards one another. Their faces were mere inches away. Their breaths quickened but their gazes never separated. They were so in sync in this moment that they both spoke at the same time.
"I love you." They spoke simultaneously before leaning in for their lips to meet. The kiss wasn't rushed. It was lazy but it was full of want and desire. Their tongues met in a slow dance, extending within the walls of their mouths. Fitz' hand moved from the side of her face to the back of her neck, pulling her in deeper. His other hand trailed up and down her back before landing on her ass. Her hands moved up and down his chest as they continued to kiss. Fitz began pulling Olivia between his legs then grabbed the back of her thighs to straddle his lap.
She was still completely naked underneath her satin robe. Her bare core was met with his hardening cock, which was only covered by his basketball shorts. Olivia tried to pull away from his kiss but he groaned out "no" to her before she could get away. She pressed her hands to his chest as he moved his hands to to her waist and rocked her back and forth against his bulging erection. She moaned in his mouth as he continued pressing his core to hers. She bit his bottom lip causing him to growl, releasing her lips from his but he didn't let go of her hips. She looked into his eyes and she could see just how bad he wanted her but she didn't know if sex was a good idea just yet.
"I don't want to confuse this moment with sex, Fitz" She breathed out as one of his hands left her waist and traveled up her front passing the tie wrap landing in the middle of her chest. A small smirk appeared on his lips before he spoke.
"I'm not confused about anything. Are you?" He challenged while grinding his hips into her harder. A moan left her throat and her tongue traced her bottom lip before she bit it. Her hands slid down his chest and began lifting his t shirt. He sat up allowing her to do so and watched her throw it off to the side of the bed. She grabbed onto the ties holding the robe together and pulled them open. Fitz' hands traveled to her breast and began fondling them thoroughly as she discarded her only article of clothing.
Her hands joined his covering her breast as she continued to ride him. The only thing separating them were his shorts. Fitz could feel her wetness seeping through the crotch of his shorts.
"I want you, Fitz." Her declaration made his cock twitch underneath her. "I'll never stop wanting you." She continued to praise as she rose to release him from the confinement of his shorts. He kicked them the rest of the way down and pulled her to lay sideways next to him in a spooning position. He raised her leg and entered her without any tenderness. He started his powerful strokes, filling her up as far as he could go.
A multitude of noises and curses left her mouth as he stroked her insides. His grip on her waist was tight but when mixed in with the pleasure, it felt nothing short of amazing. He moved his other arm to wrap around her chest, bringing her back in contact with his chest. He moved back and forth squeezing each breast as he continued pounding inside.
Olivia eyes bulged and widened when he buried himself deep inside and stopped moving. Her hand landed on his thigh hard followed by her nails digging into his flesh. She gripped the sheets with her other hand and he started moving again.
"Fitzzz, Oh my God! Yessss, harder! Go harder" She screamed, almost losing her voice. Her mind felt like mush but her body was in pure bliss. Fitz ran his tongue all around her shoulder and down her arm. He lightly bit down on her skin, tasting the sweat that had formed.
"You feel amazing" He said as his thrusting picked up.
The sensations running through Olivia were too much. She wanted to get away from him but also move closer. It was torturous but she couldn't have loved it more. Fitz could hear her moans escalating into high pitch screams.
"Livvie. Are you gonna cum?" He questioned and she nodded her head as soon as the question left his lips. He lifted her leg a little higher, laying it on top of his. He moved his hand to her clit and stroked her, prepared to bring her over the edge. He moved closer to her ear tracing his tongue around its shell. He whispered how he was gonna cum so deep inside of her. He whispered that he still wanted her to have his baby. He wanted a family with her. He wanted it all.
"Yessss, Yessss. I'm gonna cum! Don't stop." She yelled and froze in his arms as her walls contracted around him. Fitz couldn't hold off any longer and shot deep inside of her. Their moans and grunts finally subsided as they came down from their orgasms. Fitz kept his hands wrapped around Olivia who snuggled in closer to him. They stayed that way, not wanting to move away from this feeling.
Before they knew it, they were in a deep sleep, Fitz still laying inside of her. This moment was perfect. It felt right and it felt like them. They slept the rest of the morning away, not waking up until after 12. They showered, making love again before heading downstairs. They went into the kitchen and searched for recipes. They made a meal together, ate together, and snuggled up on the couch together to watch movies.
Nothing was better than this moment together. A time for them to just be them. They didn't stress or worry about the week to come. They knew what they needed to do and they would soon discuss how they'd go about doing it, but in this moment, they existed for one another.
...
