Hi everyone , so listen, I was getting a lot of comments for what I said in my last chapter. Now I wasn't saying people were stupid for not shipping Olake and Melitz . I understand that those ships are not popular and I totally respect people's decisions to support Olitz. Now all I was saying is that I was having a few comments saying that even though this is an Olitz story (which I've said many times it is). That someone wouldn't read it because in my other story (a whole other love) Fitz is not a good character. That person believed that I didn't deserve to write Olitz stories because I'm not an Olitz shipper, and that's just stupid and unfair. Now I know everyone wants Fitz to ditch Mellie and his kids and go move in with Olivia. I promise that Olitz will happen but he still has Mellie and his family to think about, so this will be Olitz, but IT WILL TAKE TIME! I understand the confusion considering the last 2 chapters were just Fitz and Mellie , but I never said it was Melitz , its Olitz , so if you guys could please just hang on for a little longer until this changes to more Olitz .Please enjoy this update that includes some Olitz.

Fitz felt his stomach drop; it had never occurred to him that Karen had been listening. How much had she heard? Had she heard about Olivia , about the kiss? Had she heard that she wasn't conceived in love? Well she had clearly heard enough to make her cry a river.

"Karen …. Can you please calm down?" he said slowly inching towards her

"CALM DOWN ? I WON'T CALM DOWN TILL YOU ANSWER MY QUESTION! DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER SON?" she barked

"Karen I…." he said not sure how to handle this situation

"So it's true" she said her voice faltering as tears ran down her face

"Karen… I" he said not sure what to say

"I want you to say it; I want you to say that you had a love child with Olivia Pope!"

"Karen please just let me explain

"I DEFENDED YOU! EVERYTIME JERRY WOULD SAY HOW HORRIBLE OF A PERSON YOU ARE I WOULD ALWAYS DEFEND YOU. I WOULD SAY THAT YOU LOVED US , THAT YOU MADE A MISTAKE , BUT HE WAS RIGHT , YOU NEVER LOVED US YOU JUST USED US "

"I never used you Karen"

"OH REALLY , SO WHAT DO YOU CALL DRAGING US OUT OF BORDING SCHOOL FOR SOME STUPID PHOTO SHOOT AFTER YOU BANGED SOME SKANK !"

"THAT'S NOT TRUE" Fitz barked

"YES IT IS, JERRY WAS RIGHT , YOU'RE A HYPOCRITE , YOU PPRETENDED TO LOVE US AND THEN YOU USED US TO CLIMB THE POLITICAL LATTER"

"Karen you know that is not true, you have to believe me!" He pleaded

"BELIVE YOU?! YOU LIED TO ME, YOU DESTROYED OUR FAMILY I HATE YOU AND JERRY HATED YOU TOO"

"Karen that's not true" he said trying to calm her down"

"YES IT IS , HE CREATED THAT TWITTER , HE BOUGHT THAT TEESHIRT NOT TO REBEL BUT BECAUSE HE TRULLY BELIVED THAT YOU WERE A HORRIBLEE PERSON WHO DIDN'T DESERVE TO BE PRESIDENT!"

"Karen you're angry and ….."

"NO SHIT I'M ANGRY, YOU LIED, YOU CHEATED, YOU'RE A HORRIBLE PERSON AND I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL" she said as she stormed down the stairs with Fitz close on her heels. He grabbed her arm before she could get out the front door

"Where the hell do you think you're going?" he barked

"BACK TO SCHOOL WHERE I NEVER HAVE TO SEE YOU AGAIN. TELL TEDDY I'M SORRY BUT I CAN NEVER COME BACK TO THIS HELL HOLE, THESE STUPIUD FAMILY VISITS ARE OVER!" she screamed

"You are not leaving this house, no matter how you feel about me , I'm still your father!" he barked

"NO YOUR NOT , YOUR JUST SOME HAORRIBLE TERRIBLE SAD LITTLE MAN I HAPPEN TO BE RELATED TO , BUT THAT DOESN'T ME AND THHAT WON'T STOP MOM OR TEDDY OR AMERICA FROM HATING ME BY THE TIME I'M DONE" she screamed as she broke free of his grasp and ran out the door , he was about to follow her when he felt an arm on his shoulder , he turned around to see Mellie fully dressed with a duffle bag in her hand .

"I'll go make sure she gets back to school fine, and then I'm going to a hotel for a few days to figure things out, I'm leaving Teddy and I hope that when I come back you have not ruined your relationship with him too" she snapped as she followed Karen out of the house

Fitz guided himself to the sofa, his legs felt numb. 4 years ago he would have handled this with a bottle of scotch (he too had a secret stash) but he couldn't be drunk around Teddy. Suddenly he knew just the thing that always made him feel better He pulled out his phone and dialed the number of her burner phone. He doubted she had kept it after all these years , but he had to try , maybe hearing her voice would help his horrible conversation with Karen. He heard the phone ring and on the third ring just before he was going to hang up she answered

"Fitz?"

"You kept it?"

"Kept it?" she asked confused about what he was talking about

"The phone, I figured you had gotten rid of it ages ago"

"No, I still kept it"

"Oh… well you never picked up when I called"

"Oh yea, that was always hurt when you called, but to be honest it hurt more when you didn't" she admitted

"Oh…. I'm sorry, I guess after a while it seemed pointless, you were clearly not coming back and I and to move on"

"I get that, I left you when you needed me the most and I'll never forgive myself for that"

"You did what you thought was best… and so did I"

"What are you talking about? What did you do?" she inquired

"I told Mellie about Milles the kiss, everything"

"What? Why the hell would you do that?" she asked her tone changing

"I don't know, it all just sort of came out, and then Karen heard and she said she hated me and that my dead son hated me an that I deserve to burn in hell so as you can tell I've had a wonderful night"

"Wow Fitz I'm so sorry are you okay?"

"Not really no, everything I worked for in the past 2 year is down the drain, and I feel so alone"

"Don't worry you'll never be alone, I'll always be here for you"

"Thanks Liv , you always did know how to make me feel better"
