For the love of Olitz.

Next day

Today was Olivia's day off. It was a Sunday , which meant no college, no could do whatever she wanted, which usually meant sleeping all day or just being that's exactly what she did till evening 5pm. Olivia was sprawled on the couch with some popcorn watching her 3rd movie for the day when she heard the door open. Due to the heels clanking she knew it was Abby.

Abby stormed into the house and threw her bag on the floor. Olivia immediately got up and turned back to look at her.

"Hey, what happened" she got up and sprinted towards Abby.

"Nothing, the same...I and David ...we fought" she said her palm on her forehead.

"Why? is everything okay?" Olivia asked touching her arm, comforting her.

"Yeah..Olivia I think I want to be alone for sometime" she replied, looking away.

Olivia was taken aback. Abby shared everything with her. But, maybe she was just tired and needed space to think on her own.

"Okay..take your time..but whatever it is I'm here for you" Olivia said looking at Abby.

"I know Liv, I loveee you for that" Abby gave her a smile that was some reassurance to Olivia.

Abby picked up her bag and walked towards her room.

"Hey Abbs"

Abby turned around.

"Yeah?"

"Here, take the popcorn" Olivia gave her the tub of popcorn.

Abby smiled widely. Popcorn was her comfort food after all! It was their comfort food.

Looking back at the TV, Olivia had lost all interest to continue her movie. Instead, she decided to go for a run.

Olivia returned after 40mins and headed straight to the shower.

All showered and dressed she walked to Abby's room to check on her. Olivia expected that Abby would've cried herself to sleep, but was surprised to see her working on her laptop.

"Hey" Olivia said.

"Hey"

"You okay?" She asked.

Abby patted the bed and Olivia walked in and sat next to her.

"I don't know Liv. I love David. He's my first real boyfriend. I care for him. More than any other man in the life, I care for him. But I feel lately, we've been so distant, we end up fighting on the smallest of things. I don't know what's happening." She said looking sadly, at Olivia. Abby sunk down and rested her head on Olivia's shoulder.

Olivia hugged her in return.

"All I know Abbs, is that...no man has ever made you as happy as David makes you. He loves you back as much as you love him, I can see that. So I want you both to work towards it. Don't let these small misunderstandings get to you. Relationships are like this, I guess. But I really want to know, you're happy right, with him?"

"There's no doubt about it" Abby replied in a second.

"I just feel, things are so stable right now( except for today's fight) that something might go wrong. I'm being paranoid, I don't know why." Abby said shrugging her shoulders.

"Don't think about all that. Just focus on the present!" Olivia said and smiled at her.

Abby smiled in return and hugged Olivia tighter.

Later

Olivia was in her room reading something when Abby walked in.

"Liv, you busy?"

"Nope. Why?"

"Great! Let's go out!" Abby replied excitedly.

"Wait, werent you sad like an hour ago" Olivia smirked.

"Yeah, that's exactly why we should go out. To uplift my mood!" Abby replied.

Olivia just laughed and rolled her eyes.

Olivia and Abby walked into Skyye at 8:30pm. Situated on the 30th floor, it was one of the most happening places in the city.

The place was jointly owned by Harrison's brother and therefore, they didn't have to worry about the entry at all.

They headed to the bar counter to get some drinks. Abby was wearing a tight black skirt and a low neck peach shimmer top that looked great on her tall frame. Olivia was wearing a strapless shiny black dress that hugged all her curves and came until her mid thigh. Her hair was in soft waves and lips were a brownish red. She oozed sexy.

She would've gone for longer clothing, if not for Abby Who coerced her into wearing this saying "Don't be such a nun!"

Both the girls settled at the bar with their cocktails and chatted on. The music changed, their favourite song came up and therefore they headed to the dance and Abby danced up a storm. Everybody's eyes were on them and their killer moves!

Admist all the crowd, Olivia couldn't notice the one man whose eyes were on her the entire night, his eyes lusting after her, mesmerized at her tiny beautiful body swaying to the tunes in the most sexy way possible.

Fitz was in the VIP section drinking his scotch as he waited for his next big client. He was to meet a potential partner for his new venture over dinner at a restaurant below in the same building. But he decided to get some drinks and meet few friends at Skyye, which he jointly owned.

He was in his own zone talking to people, enjoying his time when he noticed a woman on the dance floor. She seemed to be the star of the moment with everyone's eyes on her. As he looked closer, he was shocked. Was that really her ? His eyebrows went up, looking at Olivia dressed in the shortest black little dress, her hips swaying to the music in the most enticing way. He just couldn't look away. He gulped looking at her dance. As he stood there in a trance, unable to take his eyes away, he reminded himself of the same thing he's been telling himself ever since he laid eyes on Olivia. Don't fuck this up for Karen..

He exhaled, closing his eyes. Olivia was proving to be the best choice of tutor for Karen after a hard search for tutors. He did not want to fuck this up. This affinity and attraction to Olivia has got to go! He told himself and walked out of the lounge to head to the restaurant.

Abby and Olivia walked out at 11pm, tired of the night, ready to head home. But Abby stopped saying she wanted something to eat as they had a couple of drinks but nothing to eat. And so they made their way to a restaurant in the floor below.

They sat down comfortably and ordered pasta for both of them.

Fitz was walking back to his private booth from the washroom when he stopped, looking at Olivia sitting at a table with another girl right in front of him. He was pleasantly surprised.

She looked beautiful.

Olivia looked up to see...oh no him.

Her eyes blinked vigorously for a few seconds trying to process what was happening infront of her. He was differently dressed than usual in jeans, a black shirt and a black blazer. She bit her lip as she realised he saw her checking him out.

She looked at him and smiled.

He walked to her table and she got up.

"Miss Pope"

"Mr Grant! Nice to see you here" Olivia squeaked, trying to appear normal.

Abby witnessed the heavy sexual tension and awkward greetings being exchanged.

"This is my friend Abby..I mean Abigail...I call her Abby" Olivia explained which made Abby wanna ROFL. Olivia was mortified. Why was she being so weird?

Fitz chuckled. He could see that Olivia was nervous and he enjoyed it. As much as he tried to fight his attraction to her, right now he was enjoying seeing the effect he had on her.

"Hi Abigail aka Abby" Fitz greeted Abby.

Abby laughed while Olivia rolled her eyes smirking.

Abby shook hands with him and returned the greeting.

"Your Friend, Miss Pope has been doing to a great job with my daughter" he said looking straight into Olivia's eyes. Olivia smiled shyly, looking away.

"She is brilliant, isn't she?" Abby added proudly.

Olivia felt uncomfortable being complimented like this. This whole scenario just made her cringe.

"I'll leave you girls to it. Have a great night"

"And I'll see you tomorrow, Miss Pope?"

"Yeah...yes" Olivia replied.

"Good night, Mr Grant"

"Miss Pope, Mr Grant ? You guys are too formal given the amount of eye fucking that was going on"

"What?! The fuck are you saying?"

"Oh please" Abby rolled her eyes.

"You know he looked at you like he wanted to fuck the shit out of you. And you certainly wanted him to" Abby said cocking her eyebrows and laughing.

Olivia detested Abby's graphic language,right now. She made every situation so uncomfortable for her.

"Stop saying shit"

"Whatever" Abby replied and laughed more, which irritated Olivia even more.

"Miss Pope is hot for her Boss" Abby said mimicking Fitz's voice.

Olivia giggled at that imitation and they both ended up laughing.

"No" Olivia said between laughs.

"We'll see" Abby said winking at her.

Olivia shook her head.

Their pasta arrived and they dived into it like two animals that haven't been fed in 2 days.

Abby continued the teasing as they enjoyed their meal. Olivia looked around coyly to see where he was sitting. And she saw him seated at the far corner of the room discreetly. He was speaking to an older gentleman. Their conversation looked serious.

Fitz looked in her direction, only to see her all cutely looking at him. He smirked and she immediately looked down,as if alarmed to have been caught. She bit her lip, which didn't go unnoticed by him.

Abby and Olivia were halfway through their meal when Abby's phone rang. Her face strained,when she saw the name. She mouthed "David" and walked out to speak to him.

Olivia sat alone looking at her phone, all the while stealing few glances at the man that was making her go crazy. She shook her head to clear her thoughts and stuck her fork into the plate to whip up some spaghetti when she saw Abby walk in hurriedly.

"Liv, something's happened. David is crying and he just sounds so sad" she said sitting down.

"I need to go see him. Come, you're coming with me. I'm sorry for spoiling the night"

Olivia put her fork down and called for the cheque.

"It's okay Abby you go meet him, I'll take a cab home. He really needs you"

"But I don't want to leave you alone at this hour"

"Hey, Abby I'm a grown ass woman, I can certainly get home safe on my own. Don't worry about me, you go meet David " Olivia smiled at her as she touched her friend's hand.

"Really? Thank you Liv. I'm sorry"

Olivia rolled her eyes. "Ugh just go" she laughed and said.

Abby left in her car.

Olivia paid the bill and walked out of the restaurant. She went down to the lobby.

She walked out of the building and stood near the road to catch a cab. It was cold, making her wrap her arms around herself.

"Are you alright?" She heard that smooth baritone voice behind her.

She turned around expecting to see him and yes it was him.

The wind blew her hair on her face, her face looked beautiful in the soft yellow glow of the surrounding lights.

"Yeah, I'm just looking for a cab" she replied casually.

"Miss Pope, it's late into the night. Let me drop you home"

"That's kind of you Mr Grant, but I'll manage." Olivia smiled softly.

"I'm not leaving you here at this hour, freezing. So just come" he said more firmly this time. His face expression changed and Olivia knew it was better she agreed. He removed his blazer and gave it to Olivia and she wanted to refuse but the look on his face just made her gulp and take it.

She walked with him back to the building's portico where his car was parked.

Audi, ofcourse! Olivia thought.

Fitz took the car keys from his bodyguard and opened the door for Olivia. He told his bodyguard Tom to follow in another car as he drove this.

Fitz settled into the driving seat and started the car. Olivia told the directions to her house, which was not very far away. Although Fitz had a brief idea about where she lived, he did not say anything as he didn't want to alarm her. He kept a track record of everyone working closely to his family especially as close as a tutor to his own daughter.

A million thoughts went by their heads during the car ride. The sexual tension was evident and was becoming hard to thought about how she might sabotage the one job she had found by trying anything with her boss. Fitz told himself a hundred reasons to not get attracted to her.

After an awkward 20min ride he reached her apartment complex. Olivia practiced saying "thank you" in her head. The car stopped and they both looked at each other at the same time. At that moment, when they looked at each other, the chemistry was undeniable, the want, the lust on each others' face was so evident that even a blind person could see it.

Olivia sighed and bit her lip as if accepting defeat, to him and this dangerous attraction.

That's it. Fitz grabbed her face and kissed her hard on her lips. His lips moved against hers, taking in her plump lips into his mouth. His tongue strained at the separation of her lips, which she opened, letting him inside her. It was so passionate that it made Olivia get shivers all throughout her body. He deepened the kiss and Olivia felt a blissful giveaway as the sensations she felt were making her dizzy.

He kissed her in a way she had never been kissed before.
