The ride to Stephen and Abby's house was filled with laughter and singing. "Olivia, if I turned into a zombie would you still love me?"
"That depends, would you infect me?"
"No, see I will be trying to but when I look into your eyes I will remember you and fight the other zombies to protect you."
Interlocking their hands she looked at Fitz. "That's really sweet Fitz, in a weird way."
"I'll look for you, I won't stop until we are together, and I when I get the cure how will I find you, I'll need a place to know where to look for you"
"Our house… that's where you will find me." Olivia said quietly
"Okay…"
When they entered Abby and Stephen's house they exchanged pleasantries, the girls with Angie went into the kitchen to start with the cooking, before Stephen could say a word, Fitz grabbed him and through him into his office.
"What's wrong with you Fitz?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." His head was throbbing, his body was aching, and his hands started shaking.
"Take a seat, Fitz. You look like crap what's going on?"
Fitz took a seat on of the couch and throwing his head back he covered his eyes with his hands, taking deep breaths. "Stephen, do you remember what you said… that once I figured everything out I would return back to my world."
"Yeah, I remember" Stephen said softly
"I think it's starting to happen now… I'm slowly drifting away Stephen."
"But I don't know what it was you had to figure out, you could just be coming down with a cold." Stephen was trying to believe what he was saying to Fitz, but the look on Fitz's face told him otherwise.
"It's happening."
"What answers have you found?"
"That I need love, that I don't need to be like my father and that if I want to be happy I need Olivia Pope in my life."
"Olivia, hasn't said anything about the way you look?"
"She has but I've been blowing it off, I've been trying to mask the pain so she won't be concern."
"I'm sorry, Fitz."
Looking at his friend, give up so easy on him, he became enraged. Jumping up from the couch he throws Stephen against the wall his feet weren't even touching the ground. "Do you see what you have done? You did this to me so you will fix it, I am not leaving my family Stephen… I will not leave them!"
With his hands around his throat he looked at Fitz apologetically. "I was trying to save you." He muttered softly, his face began to change colors, letting loose on his grip so he could breathe Fitz still had him pinned against the wall.
"Save me, you have brought me nothing but misery! You made me fall in love and what you just make me unlove them, make me forget about them?"
"The other Fitz loves his family too."
"He doesn't deserve them, I deserve them, he was the one flirting with Mellie, and he was the one complaining about his life not me! I appreciate my wife I appreciate the life we have built together, I will keep my family together."
"He's you Fitz; in order to appreciate what he had, he had to lose them; just like you."
Refusing to listen to Stephen, Fitz tightened his grip again but this time on Stephen's shirt "Whoever you got the magic from, you call him and tell him I am not going! Even if Satan said he would send me to hell if I don't leave, I don't care, I will not leave my family." Fitz whispered as the tears came streaming down his face.
Removing his grip from Stephen's clothes, exhausted he leaned against the wall and fell to the floor. "Angie has a dance recital, next week…she's dancing to you are my sunshine." He said quietly as he cries for his family that he loves more than life itself.
"I'm going to kill myself." Fitz said
Sitting next to his friend he looked at him "Don't' say that Fitz. You don't mean that."
"I do." Fitz said with finality
"Fitz…"
"If I can't be with my family here…" He bites his lip to stop himself from screaming on the top of his lungs "Then I will meet them on the other side."
"Fitz, maybe Olivia will come back to you, maybe you too will be able to start the life you guys were destined to have…but you will never know that if you kill yourself. If you kill Angie."
"What?" He asked softly shocked by what his friend just said
"You will kill your baby Fitz… if you commit suicide, Angie will never exist because you and Olivia never found one another again because you killed yourself."
Looking at the wall, he stared aimlessly at it for what seemed like eternity.
"I will find him." Stephen said determined
He looks at his friend with shock and happiness for the first time since entering his house.
"How?"
"I know where to find him, and to be honest…I don't want you to go either."
Fitz dried his tears as he jumped up with a burst of energy, his head ache suddenly goes away, he no longer feels sick, and he feels amazing. "Do you think I will be able to stay here?"
"I don't know, it's a possibility that he just might let you stay, but just give me tomorrow okay and I will find him for you."
Hugging his friend tightly "Thank you Stephen, thank you."
For the rest of the evening, Fitz enjoys his family and his friends. He finds Angie playing underneath the mistletoe throwing her in his arms he kisses her, which results in Angie licking him. At the table he drinks eggnog with Liv and the gang, and they sat around and reminisced about the past. The pain he was once feeling is no longer there, he knows in his heart that he is staying with his family.
After dinner Angie wanted to show everyone her dance, but once she got up there she became shy, her big doe eyes started to water and her lip started to quiver as she looks at her daddy to save her. Jumping up Fitz dances with Angie, to Angie's delight; sure the gang laughed at him but to see the happiness's in Angie's eyes and the look of love in Olivia's- priceless.
Sitting next to Olivia on the couch, her head went to his shoulder.
"I love watching you with Angie, every time I look at you with her I am torn between wanting you to myself and wanting to keep watching you play with her."
"I know how you feel…Liv?"
"Yeah" her eyes are closed as she enjoys the moment
"I want another baby." He says softly looking at her reactions
Lifting her head up she looks at him and smiles softly "You want another baby?"
Fitz nods his head enthusiastically "I want another baby, I want another Angie." He said softly
"I was going to tell you the same thing." Olivia looks at him excitedly, she has been trying to find the right time to tell him, but this moment between them feels perfect.
"Really?"
"Yeah, watching you with Angie… all I want is to make another baby with you…I have baby fever."
He laughs hearing Liv talk about baby fever, "Well you don't have to worry because I would love to have another baby with you, in fact let's have eleven."
Olivia started choking hearing eleven kids come out of Fitz's mouth. "You are joking; you can barely keep up with the one you have."
Ignoring Liv, he kept talking about his eleven kids. "Our eleventh child will be named Sleven because it rhymes with eleven, and we can say 'Hey sleven eleven!"
"No, and are you kidding me?"
"It's cute" he said defending himself
"Fitz, our child's name will rhyme with seven-eleven."
"Okay, no sleven, but eleven kids.
"No"
"Okay, I am willing to compromise on the how many kids…let's say nine?"
"No"
"Seven"
"No"
"five"
"No"
"Three, and that's final"
"Two"
He grins at her "Okay, two"
"Two" Olivia smiles confirming the number of kids they have agreed on
"Two" The smile that plasters his face is a thing of beauty.

The car ride home is filled with Angie's sweet voice singing 'you are my sunshine' with the cd, while Olivia sleeps next to him on the passenger side.
"Daddy, daddy, daddy!" Angie started yelling so Fitz could hear her.
Turning down the music to hear her, he smiles softly at hearing Angie calling him daddy, no matter how many times a day he hears it, it never gets old "Yes, Angel."
"Sing with me, pwease."
"Okay, but where singing it my way." Fitz said laughing
"You are my daddy, my only sunshine you make me happy when skies are grey, you never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my daddy away." Angie singing Fitz's version of 'you are my sunshine' is music to his ears, never in his life has he heard a more perfect song by an angel.
Laughing he turns around and looks at Angie, he never saw the eighteen wheeler coming.
