Hey guys, I am so sorry it has taken me so long to update! It is towards the end of the semester and I have been crazy busy and I've had some other stuff going on to in my life, anyway that you for being so patient for Chapter 11. I hope it is worth the wait!

Olivia was in still in shock as she stared back at Mellie, "Uh, what are you doing here?"

Mellie looked down at Jake's shirt that she was wearing then looked back up at her, "I think can see why I am here," She said looking down at Jake's t-shirt hanging off her body. "Is there a problem?" She asked Olivia crossing her arms in front of her chest.

"I didn't think you two were still seeing each other." Olivia stated.

Mellie smiled, "Well, we are. He came to my office today and we figured things out, not that it is any of your business."

"It is my business. I am running your campaign. How many times do I have to remind you of that, Mellie?" Olivia asked her.

"And how many times do I have to tell you, that because you are running my campaign doesn't mean that I have to tell you every time I have sex with someone." She said.

Jake got out of the shower in nothing but shorts and walked into the kitchen, "Mel, who was at the door?"

Mellie turned to look at him then moved out of the way, "Olivia."

Jake turned around to see Olivia standing in his doorway, "What are you doing here?" He asked her.

Olivia looked at him, "Can I talk to you? In private." She said.

Jake nodded. He walked over to Mellie and kissed her cheek, "Can you give us a minute, please?" He asked her.

She looked at him and rolled her eyes thennodded, "Yes. I'll go take a shower." She said then looked at Olivia. "I'll see you tomorrow Olivia." She smirked then walked through the apartment to the bathroom to take a shower.

Olivia walked in, closing the door behind him then looked at him, "Wow."

He crossed his arms, "What?"

"I never thought it would actually happen." She said.

"What? Us sleeping together?" He asked.

She nodded, "Yes, you sleeping with Mellie Grant."

"Well, it did and it wasn't the first time." He said with a smile on his face.

She rolled her eyes, "Are you stupid?" She asked him.

"Excuse me?" He asked.

"Are you stupid? She is using because Fitz doesn't want her." She told him

"So the same reason you used me?" He asked.

"No..that's diff-" She started to say.

"How? How is it any different Olivia? You were with Fitz, but when you two had an argument, or broke up or did whatever the hell you two did, you always came running to my bed. You got undressed for me. You crawled under the covers and rode me. If you say that is what Mellie is doing then you two are doing the exact same thing, but you know what I don't think Mellie is doing that. She does not want Fitz, just like I do not want you. So if you came here to tell me to stay away from Mellie Grant or to have sex with me. You know I don't care what you came here to do, I do not want to hear it. The answer is no. So," He walked over to the door then opened it. "Please get out of my apartment."

She watched him then walked out of his apartment without another word to him. He shut the door behind her then locked it. He shook his head and walked to the bathroom. He smiled when he heard her singing to herself from the bedroom. He walked into the bathroom and watched her through the glass shower. He couldn't help but check her out, she was so sexy. Mellie felt someone watching her, she stopped singing and looked over her shoulder.

He smiled, "Oh, please, don't stop singing on my account."

She smiled some then turned around and looked at him as she washed her hair, "How was your conversation?" She asked him with a hint of annoyance in her voice.

Jake smirked hearing the annoyance in her voice, "I told her that I didn't care why she was here, that she needed to leave because I am with you. Now she is gone."

She nodded, "Okay. Good."

He watched her, "What is it Mellie?"

She shook her head, "Nothing."

"Mel, if this is going to work you have to open up and be honest with me." He said as he walked further into the bathroom.

She sighed, "I'm just insecure I guess. I am just waiting for you to say "Oh, never mind. I don't want you. I want Olivia."

He shook his head then took his shorts and boxers off and got into the shower and looked at her resting his hands on her waist, "I do not want Olivia. I want you. If I didn't want you, you would not be here. I would not have waited for you if I didn't want you. I want you to be my girlfriend." He said not looking away from her.

She listened to him and then smiled as she looked back at him, "You do?"

He smiles, "I planned on asking you in a more romantic setting, but yes. Mellie Grant, I want you to be my girlfriend. Will you be my girlfriend, please?" He asked her.

She smiled, "I thought you would never ask. Of course I will be your girlfriend, Jake Ballard."

He grinned and pulled her against him then kissed her deeply. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed her just as deep, pressing her body against his. He slid his tongue into her mouth, pushing back until her back hit the shower wall gently. She moaned into his mouth as their tongues battled with one another. His hands moved all over her body until they finally stopped on her breasts, gently massaging them and playing with her nipples making her moan and arch into him. He pulled away from her grinning then moved down and starting kissing her neck. She moved her hands over his shoulders then down his body. She took him into her hand, grinning when she felt him get hard in his hand. He let moan escape his lip against her neck, he moved down kissing over her chest before taking a breast into his mouth, sucking on her nipple. She moaned as he, feeling the heat between her legs because she had become o turned on by him, by her boyfriend. He kept sucking on her breast for a little bit then kissed down her toned stomach, dropping to his knees he spread her legs, running his hands up and down her thighs as he slowly pushed his tongue through slit and immediately felt her wetness on his tongue, both of them letting out a moan. She lifted her leg over his shoulder as he pushed his tongue deeper in her, she gently gripped his hair as she leaned her head back against the wall moaning louder for him. He licked through her folds up to her clit, he started flicking his tongue over her clit.

She moaned louder, "Oh yes, Jake, you are going to make me cum." She said breathlessly, gripping his hair hard.

He grinned as he gripped her ass hard as he nipped and sucked on her clit. That was enough to send an orgasm ripping through her body making her moan out his name in please and push against his tongue that was still licking and sucking on her. He kissed the inside of the thigh that was rested in his shoulder and slowly kissed up over her tight and clenched stomach from the orgasm she just had, over her chest, up her neck to her lips and kissed her deeply, making her taste what was left of herself on his lips and tongue. She kissed back deeply as he rubbed her ass. She finally pulled back when neither of them could breathe and she grinned at him. She kissed down his neck, kissing and sucking until she left a mark on him.

He grinned, "Mmmm marking me, huh?"

She smirked, "Damn right. You're my boyfriend, I can do that."

He looked at her, "Oh, you can do anything you want to me Senator Grant."

She grinned, "Is that so Captain Ballard?" She asked as she got down on her knees and took him into her mouth, sucking slowly at first.

He sucked in a breath as she did, "Oh wow…you are so good at that."

She looked up at him as she started sucking harder and faster. He ran his hand through her wet hair and gently gripped it as she deep throated him. He moaned as he grew closer. She sucked kept sucking him hard. He leaned back against the shower wall as he came hard in her mouth, moaning out her name. She grinned before swallowing and licking him clean. He watched her and pulled her up, spinning her around. Her hands rested on the wall as he ran his hands over her ass, he loved her ass. He bit his lip as he kissed across her shoulder blades. She spread her legs for him as she looked over her shoulder at him. He looked at her with a smirk on his face, he kept his hands on her ass as he entered her, both of them moaning in unison as he did. He started picking up speed with every passing second, or at least that is what it felt like to her. She moaned as he moved, she started moving her back against him. He gripped her ass tight as they moved together and he leaned forward to kiss and suck on her neck, which he ended up leaving a nice dark mark on. She bit her lip and moaned as she felt her muscles tighten around him, he moaned as he felt her. After a couple of more deep thrusts from him against that hit her g-spot she screamed out his name as she felt her orgasm take over her body barely hearing his moans as he came with her. She stood up and leaned back against him as they both caught there breathe.

She smiled, "Wow." She turned around and looked at him.

He looked down at her with a smile on his face, "Wow is right, beautiful." He kissed her softly, wrapping his arms around her waist. She kissed his back, wrapping her arms around his neck. When they finally pulled away from each other she finished up her shower and they both got out and dried off.

Mellie got dressed and packed up her stuff. Jake drove her home because it was after eleven and she needed to get home so Lucy could go home. He pulled into her driveway and parked the car. He got out of the car, walked around and opened the door for her.

She smiled as she got out, "Why thank you."

He smiled and closed the door once she was out, "You're are welcome, my girlfriend."

She held his hand as they walk up to her door together, "I love the sound of that." She told him.

He smiled and rubbed her hand with thumb, "So do I. Nothing has ever made me happier."

They stopped once they reached the door and she turned to look at him, "Do you want to come in?" She asked him.

"What about Teddy?" He asked her.

"Babe, it's after eleven, he has been in bed for hours." She told him.

He smiled, "Oh. Do you have to get up early tomorrow?" He asked her.

She shook her head, "No, I don't have any meetings until tomorrow afternoon." She told him.

He smiled, "Well in that case, I would love to come in." He told her.

She smiled as she opened the door, she felt Jake right behind her as they walk in and he rested his hand on her waist, she had noticed that he always liked to have a hand on her, nothing possessive, just to be loving and affectionate, which she hadn't had in a very long time. It made her smiled to herself.

Lucy was sitting at the kitchen table with her school books scattered all of the table. She looked up when she heard them come in.

"Hey Mellie." She smiled then looked at Jake, "Hello."

Mellie smiled, "Hey Lucy. Oh Lucy, this is Jake, my boyfriend. Jake, this is Lucy my baby sitter aka my life saver on a daily basis."

Lucy laughed, "Well thank you. It's nice to meet you Jake." She stood up and starting packing up her books.

Mellie walked over and helped her gather up all the papers, "Was Teddy good for you?" She asked her.

Lucy nodded, "Yes, like always. He did go down later than normal because he wanted to wait for you and I wasn't for sure what time you would be home." She explained to Mellie.

Mellie nodded, "That's okay. It's not like he has to get early tomorrow." She smiled.

Lucy got packed up and Mellie walked her to the door. Once she pulled out of the drive Mellie closed the door. She smiled when she felt strong arms wrap around her wait from behind and lips kissing her neck. She turned around and looked up at Jake.

He smiled, "Gosh, you are beautiful.

She felt her cheeks flush, "Thank you. You are pretty handsome yourself."

He caressed her cheek then leaned down to kiss her softly. She kissed him just as soft. He pulled back and looked at her again,

"Do you want to watch a movie?" He asked her.

She smiled, "I'd love to. My movie collection is under the TV. Pick something while I go change."

He nodded, "Yes, ma'am." He winked then went to look at the movies.

She walked back to her bedroom then to her dresser. She got out a pair of leggings and an oversized sweatshirt then put them both on. She put her hair up into a messy bun. She used the bathroom. When she walked out she smiled, seeing Jake standing in the door way.

"Are we watching it in here or in the living room?" He asked her.

"Well, I don't have a TV in here, so we will have to watch it in the living room." She told him.

He nodded, "Sounds good to me." He held her hand as they walked back to the living room. He put the movie in while she turned it to the right channel, grabbed a blanket and then sat down. She watched him to the put movie, checking him out. Once he got the movie put in he came and sat down next to her, she covered them both up then laid her head on his chest while he wrapped his arm around, rubbing her back as they watched.

Before the movie was even half over Mellie had fallen asleep. He looked down at her and watched her sleep. He kissed her head and just let her sleep. Once the movie was over he gently shook her,

"Hey you. The movie is over." He said to her softly as her eyes fluttered open.

She sat up and looked at him, "I'm sorry. I didn't meant to fall asleep. What time is it?" She asked him.

He smiled as he watched her, "It's okay Mel." He wiped some sleep out of the corner of her eye, "It's a little after one. I should get going and you should go to bed baby."

She smiled softly, "I'll walk you out." They got up and she walked him out to the porch.

He smiled, "Thank you for an amazing day, Senator Grant." He told her.

"Well, I could say the thing for you Captain Ballard." She smiled then wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and held her closed to him as he hugged her back. Once she finally pulled back he kissed her softly, "Good night beautiful."

She kissed him back softly, then smiled, "Good night handsome."

He kissed her forehead then walked to his car. She waited until she could no longer see his head lights before going back inside. She closed then locked the door behind her. She shut off the TV and all of the lights. She walked to her bathroom and washed the makeup off of her face. She went to Teddy's room and kissed him goodnight, then walked back to her room and crawled into bed. Just as she was about to fall asleep her phone vibrated.

She smiled because she knew exactly who it was. She reached over and picked up her phone then unlocked it and opened her messages. She smiled again when she saw the text was from Jake.

"I made it home. I had an amazing day with you. Thank you for being my girlfriend. I still can't believe I get to call you that, I am the luckiest man. You are the only thing I think about. Sweet dreams, beautiful. I will talk to you tomorrow baby." She read.

She replied, "Glad you made it home safe babe. Thank you for wanting to be my boyfriend. Sweet dreams, handsome. Talk to you tomorrow." She sent then put her phone back on the charger on her nightstand. It didn't take her long to succumb sleep again. While she slept, she dreamed about her future. Her future was Captain Jake Ballard.

I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! Not much happened, except they did make it official. Sorry again that it took me so long to get this chapter wrote and up, I had a lot going on. Hopefully I can get another coupe of chapters up before I start work on the 23rd!
