Two Months Later:
Olivia stood getting dressed when her cell phone rang, she picked it up and checked the caller ID to find it was Ella. "Hey baby girl, I'll be over to pick you up soon…do you have your homework?"
"Yeah, everything is in my bag…are we really going to New York?"
"You bet, tell Mom I'll be there momentarily…I have to check on Uncle Peter and Uncle Walter okay?"
"Okay, bye Aunt Liv." The phone went dead and Olivia chuckled, placing her phone down and looked over at the bathroom door as it opened and Peter exited in a towel.
"Hey, so I'm going to pick up Ella and take her to New York before coming back to get you and Walter. Broyles called and said we have a, and I quote, unique situation."
Peter chuckled and stopped in front of her, "how is he today, active or sleeping?"
"There's your answer," their son kicked Peter's hand as he placed them on each side of her belly and waited, "you need to get dressed…its not good you're in a towel."
"Why?" A smirk covered his face as he eyed her
Olivia leaned and kissed him, "you know why, I have to go pick up Ella. Be ready when I get back, ten minutes." She teleported out at that and Peter began to get ready.
Olivia arrived in her sister's Boston apartment, Ella was waiting on the couch. "Hi Aunt Liv."
"Hey baby girl, where's Mom?"
"Here I am," Rachel came out of the bedroom and looked at them, "thanks for looking after her, taking her to Chicago while we finish the divorce proceedings isn't best…if Greg even got a hint of her abilities I'd never hear the end of it."
Olivia smiled as her sister touched her belly, her son kicking under his aunt's hand. "And I'd sanction Greg into a dark cold cell where he'd never see the light of day again."
"That would be great wouldn't it…so does my nephew have a name yet?"
Olivia nodded, "we're thinking about Charlie for a name, Peter's still at me to name him 'Dunham' but I keep vetoing it."
"But its such a strong name, I can't believe you were over there pregnant this entire time and with such a strong and gifted little boy."
"He's like his father, determined to protect me till the end but unlike Peter, this little guy can hold his own." She looked at her watch, "I have to go, I have a case and I have to take Ella to New York so…call me when its over."
"Yeah," Rachel hugged Olivia and then hugged Ella, "behave for Aunt Liv and no creating spectacles…its bad enough I have to home school you which means I shove you on your aunt and uncle every day. So best behavior…no using abilities to play with others."
Ella nodded, "okay, can I teleport Aunt Liv, please?"
"Nope, you don't know where we're going so no…so hands." She held out her hands and Ella reluctantly put hers in her aunt's. "Oh come on, a couple of states and tens of cities all in the blink of an eye…no traffic and instant fun."
Ella smiled and Olivia teleported them out, Rachel just went on with her packing.
They arrived at Massive Dynamic and found Astrid waiting, "hey Ella…"
"Hi Astrid, so I'm going with Peter and Walter to a scene…could you take Ella to the newly created playroom…the one Uncle Peter had created just for her?"
Ella's eyes lit up, "all for me?"
"Yes, Astrid will explain everything but Ella…you'll start school soon, or at least a school routine. We have created one just for you, tomorrow you start and it's going to be hard because you won't have anyone with you."
"It's okay Aunt Liv, I have you and Astrid and Uncle Peter…I can deal."
Olivia smiled, "okay then, I'm off…she has her homework with her so…you have it."
"We have it, come on Ella…lets go see Gene, she's here."
Olivia chuckled at the fact Walter had brought Gene all the way from Harvard, teleporting out to her home…the home she shared with Peter and Walter, the home that was going to be for sale shortly as they were moving to New York.
She found Peter packing his computer bag and everything when she teleported into their bedroom. "Hey, don't forget this." She held up his notebook, the one he had managed to get a hold of before they had left the other side. "Where do you want it?"
"In my hand," he looked at her and walked over, "I put up with Ella's abilities but you should know better then to use them for fun."
Olivia chuckled as he grabbed for the notebook and it disappeared from her hand. He looked around and found it on the bed, going for the thing, it disappeared again and he turned to find Olivia laughing as she held it.
Peter pulled her to him and took the notebook before kissing her, "why do I tolerate you?"
"Because you belong with me and because I crossed worlds to save you."
He smiled, "is that all?"
"Maybe?" She smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck as he kissed her, their foreheads resting together afterwards. "I love you Peter."
"I love you too Olivia…and Dunham." He eyed her, "I won't give up, that's his name…it's the name he responds to."
He turned back and she hit his arm, "you wish, I'll get Walter."
Peter watched Olivia leave, smiling at the fact that his tough-as-nails agent had gone from having no fun unless it contained alcohol to being playful with him at all turns.
They'd found a house on Staten Island that was perfect for the four of them, five if you counted Ella's often stays. Rachel admitted she'd miss Ella but when it came down to the facts, she just wasn't as equipped to handle Ella's unique abilities and was sending her to live with the Bishops.
She'd see Ella on the weekends and join them all for holidays but she couldn't manage Ella's uniqueness day to day and often expressed wanting to murder Alt-Livia for taking away her daughter's carefree life.
The house had a guest house with a full bath and kitchen, Walter would live there while Peter, Olivia and the kids lived in the main house. The house also had an indoor pool and a huge backyard, enough for a dog…Ella's only request.
Peter headed downstairs to find Olivia accepting something from Walter, "it was Elizabeth's, Peter says styles have changed but I know she'd want you to have it."
Olivia unwrapped the gift and found a beautiful shawl, "thank you Walter, its beautiful…I have something I can wear it with."
"Oh good, I also have Peter's christening gown…if you want it for my grandson."
Peter chuckled and put his hand on Olivia's back and bent down next to her belly. "You have to tell Grandpa to lay off the gifts, you're spoiled enough. Agent Broyles already got you an entire nursery set…against Mommy and Daddy's request not to." He kissed Olivia's belly and stood up to look at Olivia, "he's going to be spoiled like no kid has before."
"No child has been born as he will Peter, he will be the first naturally born Cortexiphan positive."
Peter eyed his father, "of course Walter, that is something to be very proud about, I mean how'd he get like that…his grandfather's experiments on his mother. That'll be something to go down in history for."
"Behave, Walter's just trying to be positive, something you should do." Olivia looked at Peter, "or do I have to get the handcuffs Bishop?"
"By all means Agent Dunham, get the handcuffs…just tell me when and where you want to arrest me?" He had a smirk and Olivia rolled her eyes, pulling on her coat.
Walter chuckled, "I have been told that sexual experiences are heightened during pregnancy."
Peter groaned, "Walter…I am not talking to you about my sex life."
"I could mix an aphrodisiac for you and Olivia if you want, something safe for the baby."
"Okay Walter, in the car." Olivia opened the door, "come on, we have scene to get to and I don't want Broyles telling me being slow is another reason for not being in the field, the fact I have a force field was the only reason he's allowing me in the field. Come on boys, in the car."
Walter went outside and Peter looked at Olivia, "only my father could not respect those boundaries. You know he tried to tell me ways of getting you pregnant after we have the baby, apparently he wants four grandchildren and he says Ella doesn't count."
"I'll think about it…after we have the baby." Olivia locked the door with a swipe of her hand and Peter put his hand on her back as they walked down the stairs to the car.
A/N: Wow...Olivia and Peter are together together, but like we didn't see that coming. Walter's mind is one tracked and Ella is going to live with the Bishops...Fringe Household...watch out!
Next Peter gets in trouble with Olivia...oh no Peter.
