Chapter 29
Olivia had not been able to get her and Fitz into see her gynecologist neither Thursday nor Friday. Neeka was booked solid until Tuesday of next week. Her husband was not happy about that. He had caught himself before he had fired off to Olivia why couldn't she just tell the woman this was an emergency. This was a touchy subject for his wife, he didn't want her crying again but he was not comfortable having sex with Olivia not knowing if he could somehow hurt her or the baby. What if something happened he would never forgive himself. And Olivia she was such a sexual creature she would never accept anything less than all of him.
She had sensed he was holding back some of the fervor and passion he felt in their initial encounters. Don't misconstrue, those first nights of lovemaking with Olivia had been off the chain, but he outweighed her by almost eighty pounds so he had held back. Plus she had told him she hadn't been with anyone for a couple of years and he was a well endowed man. He was big! Her eyes had widened in disbelief and those beautiful lips of hers had formed the perfect "O" when she had pulled him out of his pants. He had reassured her he wouldn't hurt her. She had smiled back at him and said, "I know."
When she bluntly asked him if he was holding back he didn't deny it. "I want all of it Fitz, I want to feel all your power and the fierceness you are harnessing because you think I am fragile. I'm not. Don't hold back with me. I want to give you everything, I want to be everything to you. Promise me when you come to me tonight you will be yourself, express yourself as you want to. Hold nothing back ok?" So he unleashed his full power when he was with her. He still was solicitous of her. If she had any discomfort or had any complaint about anything he did all it would take would be a "stop, I don't like this" and it would end. So far their compatibility had been remarkable.
However when she said she couldn't get an appointment before next week with her doctor he wasn't having it. He was not going to wait almost a week to know what should happen between him and his pregnant wife in the bedroom. He hadn't touched her in two nights because of his concerns. Olivia he was sure had casually asked her doctor if she could continue having sexual relations with her him now that she was pregnant. He was sure she didn't say they had sex for hours at the time and that it wasn't gentle missionary type sex. They played hardball in the bedroom! So he had taken matters into his own hands. He had gotten Tom to get the private phone number of Dr. Monica Morse. He had called her and identified himself as the significant other of Olivia Pope. Dr. Morse once understanding who was on the line had ended the current exam she was performing. She discarded her gloves, washed her hands and answered the phone; the President of the United States was calling.
"Dr. Morse this is Fitzgerald Grant and I am the father of the baby Olivia Pope is carrying. She will have my ass if she finds out I called you. I am an attorney just as Olivia is and I am not calling asking you to break any rules of confidentially. We just need an appointment to see you. I know you are a very busy woman, I understand you are the best gynecologist in this town. Thank-you for agreeing to take care of Olivia during her pregnancy."
"Olivia couldn't get an appointment for this week. I prefer not to wait until next week to have my questions answered. Could we come to your office after hours or better yet could you come to us here at the White House? Please don't think me bossy or overbearing Dr. Morse, I wish Olivia had allowed me to come with her in the first place. Since she had been talking to scheduling and not you directly I was hoping you would call and say you saw she was trying to schedule and you can fit us in. If Olivia sees this as me interfering she will be mad as hell. I would prefer if she didn't know I had called you. I would never ask you to lie to her, just be creative and keep me out of it. I know I am rambling but I love her doctor and I need to know she is alright and that we do nothing to hurt our chances of having a healthy baby"
"Mr. President you don't have to explain Olive to me. I lived with her every day for almost three years. Olive is a boss; she likes to be charge of everything. I asked her where you were and she said you didn't need to be here yet, typical Olivia Pope. I knew you would have questions and I have been expecting a call from you. I would have been disappointed if you hadn't called. I will be glad to sit down with the two of you together Mr. President at your convenience. It will be much better if I just come to the White House I will tell Olive that when I call her. I expect to see you soon then. I am glad you called."
"Thank-you doctor. I can't wait to meet you. Olivia or Olive as you call her has told me your story. It is a remarkable one. I want to thank-you for your service to this country but to thank-you mostly for being a good friend to Olivia. I hope to see you soon. Good-bye.
So Olive had hit the jackpot. Her "significant other" was obviously a keeper. A man who was super concerned about his woman was good to see these days. It was obvious he wanted to make sure everything was okay with Olive's pregnancy. She wasn't quite high risk but she was nearly in that category because of her age as a first time mother. But from a medical point of view his wife was a healthy as a horse. Considering that what she mostly consumed all her adult life was unseasoned popcorn and red wine that was miraculous. She pulled out her phone and looked for an evening she could "drop" by the White House.
"Olive it is me Neeka. You have a minute?"
Olivia Pope's heart sank. There was something wrong with her baby. Neeka had told her that those special tests would be back in about two days. It was Friday. Oh my god she couldn't bear it. She didn't want to hear it. She had started to hyperventilate.
"Olive are you there? Olive are you are alright? You are breathing funny girl. Olivia?
"Neeka, my baby…."
"Olive your baby is fine. I was calling to tell you your test were back and everything looks good. Calm down girl. You are going to get the best Christmas present, a healthy baby boy or girl to love for the rest of your life. Everything is alright, trust me."
"Neeka thank God everything is okay. I am so touchy with this pregnancy. I cry at the drop of a hat. And I want sex all the time. I am going to drive Fitz crazy."
"All that shit is normal, don't sweat it, go with the flow. I got this for you Olive. I got this. I see you called trying to schedule an appointment is everything okay?"
"Yes everything is okay. It is that old man who has impregnated me. He is now afraid to nail me to the bed because I am pregnant Neeka. He wants to talk to you about it. I think I am going to be embarrassed talking about my sex life in front of you Neeka."
"You shouldn't be Olive. I am your friend but I am also a professional. I have seen and heard it all. I still don't have any openings at the office. But I would be willing to come to you. I get the impression you two are cohabitating somewhere, your place or his? I will come to you. I will answer his questions and put you both at ease."
"I am actually staying with him now at his place Neeka. Some place right? That and some other tidbits are what I had hoped to talk to you about on my next visit. His place will be more convenient I think. He is trying to the run the world. What are you doing this Saturday? I have told Fitz about you and I want you to meet him Neeka. He is such a wonderful man. He is older, distinguished, and he is the President but he is just a regular guy. Could you come over? I can get you cleared and you just drive up to the rear gates."
"That sounds good Olive. What time?"
"He likes to eat early. Is six okay?"
"Fine, I will see you tomorrow evening then."
"Bye, see you tomorrow."
Olivia was hosting her first dinner party of sorts. But she was hosting it in the secluded family wing. She wanted it to be an intimate setting for her no-nonsense friend. Fitz had Cook prepare some of the foods she knew Neeka loved and surprisingly her husband enjoyed them too. He was glad to know Neeka was willing to come to them. He was also glad she was able to see them so quickly. He told Olivia he had meetings for the last two nights just to slow them down a bit. Coming to bed late assured him Olivia would be asleep. He wanted that acknowledgement from the doctor that they weren't overdoing it. His wife had said nothing but she knew exactly what her husband was up to and she was going to put an end to it tonight!
Dr. Morse was early. She came into the residence and Olivia showed her around a bit. They eventually walked over to the Oval and Fitz was sitting at his desk working. He stood and greeted her and thanked her for coming. He bragged on his Cook and asked her if she was hungry. She was. Olivia had told her to come hungry. Neeka loved to eat and she enjoyed the meal tremendously. Neeka noticed that Olivia still picked at her food and ate like a bird. She was going to lay the law down about her eating habits. She was eating for two now!
After dinner they retired to Fitz' private sitting room to talk. Olivia was dreading the conversation because she knew her husband would be blunt. She loved Neeka but did she really want her to know she was a freak in the bedroom? It was nothing to be ashamed of the way she now felt about sex. She knew that. Her husband had taught her that. But for some reason she wasn't sure she was ready to lay it on the table, even to Neeka.
As she knew he would, her husband dove right in. "Doctor my wife and I enjoy a very robust sex life. Sometimes it is twice a day, or more than twice a day, but mainly every day. Sex for us is rarely a quickie even though we used to have a lot of those too. We make love sometimes for hours on end. Olivia on the average is having two to three orgasms a night when we have sex. I can handle two definitely, sometimes more myself, but I am not the one incubating a baby."
"Since starting our relationship years ago we have always enjoyed "all in" sex. No rough stuff, no torture, no S & M, just good fast and sometimes furious sex. Olivia is a small woman. And I am a big man in statute and everywhere if you know what I mean. I would never hurt her deliberately but now that she is pregnant I want to know what I can and cannot do. I love her and the unborn child she is carrying. I would not have either one of them harmed in any way. Olivia's orgasms are so intense they physically drain her. She can barely stand or keep her eyes open afterwards. I am there watching and protecting her but I worry about her overdoing. I shoot from the hip Dr. Morse. Should we keep on as we have being doing having unrestrained no holds barred sex during this pregnancy?"
"Fitz why not ask her one question at a time? I shoot from the hip too! I told you I am not some fragile flower that needs to be coddled during sex. I like what we do, in fact I love it. If I want it fast and furious why can't I have that? And slow and easy is good too. Why shouldn't you be able to take me on a table or up against a wall? I like being bent over a desk. I like that you can pick me up like a feather and place me on top of you and I don't have to move at all if I don't want to. You just move me yourself any way you want me. I love being backed into shower tiles and later having you admire the imprints on my backside. I absolutely love doggie-style. And God help me, the oral sex I experience with him Neeka, there are no words! What we do in the privacy of our bedroom is why a baby is growing inside of me; I don't want that to stop for seven months. Would you please tell my big lug of a husband he can't just stop making love to me?"
"Olivia why not ask her one question at a time," her husband asked? Neeka noticed that the President of the United States had turned a rosy hue as Olivia was describing their antics in the bedroom. These two were something else!
"I get the picture guys. You are sexual beings, very sexual beings. You two go at like rabbits sometimes and other times like a stallion and a mare. It is hard and furious; sometimes it is slow and deliberate. It is day and night for hours and hours. You are a lucky woman Olive and you Mr. President are a lucky man. Sexual compatibility rarely happens in a marriage without years and years of practice.
I encourage you to go on as you have. Your baby has taken root, it can't be easily dislodged. I will suggest perhaps some slight modification and restraint as they are needed. Olivia you will know when something is no longer pleasant to do, you just stop it. You simply let him know that for now we won't do this. Your baby is going to take up the space here." She pointed it out on her own belly. "The little guy or girl isn't going to be hanging out in your vagina until the day it decides to be born. After week thirty-nine I suggest no more vaginal intercourse. But until then if you both are comfortable go for it."
"Olive is not going to have your little one endangered Mr. President, her mothering instincts have alright kicked in. Newly pregnant women especially first time mothers are thinking as their bodies are changing that their men may see them differently. It frightens them a little. They become insecure about their attractiveness and ability to please their mates. You two obviously love each other; just continue to do that and all will be well. Remember modification and restraint as needed and you will be fine. If either one of you should have any other questions just call me. Here is my card for you Mr. President. Olivia you are set. You have the schedule I have made out for you and the prescription for the special prenatal vitamins I want you to take right?" Olivia shook her head in the affirmative. "Do you plan to have your baby in hospital or here at the White House?"
Fitz did not give Olivia a chance to respond to that one. "I want the security and the availability of immediate assistance should anything go wrong. I want Olivia at a hospital when she delivers I insist upon it. Don't Olivia, you are allowed a lot of prerogatives but not on this."
"I did mention that my boyfriend, no make that husband since he has spilled the beans, can be bossy? I love it though. And I concur, we deliver at the hospital."
"We haven't really discussed this Olivia but do you want natural or medicinally assisted childbirth," the doctor asked?
Again Olivia's husband spoke out. "Olivia as you know I have been through this before and even with my ex-wife being medicated childbirth was the most painfully looking thing I have ever seen. So I can't imagine you going through a natural birth. I intend to be with you through it all but I am not sure I could stand to see you in considerable pain. I was there with Mellie but I don't need to tell you this time will be different. I am deeply in love with the mother; I am deeply in love with you. I am not sure I can watch you hurt Olivia."
"I know it will be different with me Fitz very different. But I am not Mellie and I don't want my child under the influence of drugs when he comes into this world. And I want to experience it all with you at my side. We are pregnant and we will bring him into the world naturally if I can."
"I am glad you agree Livvie. I want this to be the greatest experience for us. We plan to do this more than once doctor. Wait a minute, Olivia did you just say when he comes into the world? How do you know what we are having?"
"To be honest I don't know Fitz. But I just have such strong feelings about it. And sometimes in my dreams I am holding a baby, a brown squishy baby with the bluest eyes. I know he is ours Fitz I just know he is ours."
The President of the United States dropped down on one knee in front of his wife. "Damn Livvie, I have seen it too, a baby swaddled in blue lying in your arms with eyes like mine. We are definitely having a boy!"
Neeka chimed in shaking her head . "You two are special. I know your history. Why in the world has it taken you this long to finally get together and put this relationship on permanent ground? There is so much love in this room and it just makes me so happy to know I am going to be part of extending that love into the world."
"We have gotten sidelined so many times mostly by bullshit Dr. Morse and your girlfriend here can be bossy too. But I have always known we would end up together always, so all I had to do was wait."
Olivia reached out and touched his face. "Oh my darling man I am so glad you waited for me. I was always running, foolishly running. I am so sorry, Neeka is right we should have been on permanent ground years ago. I love you Fitz so much." They started to kiss passionately.
"Okay, I am out of here. Fitz and Olivia if you need anything including the answer to more questions just call. Good luck guys. I know Secret Service will see me out, good-night." She knew they hadn't heard her.
They didn't hear the doctor say she was leaving or hear her say good-night, the passion that often overtakes them had over-taken them! "Olivia can I take you to bed? I need you so much. I need to feel you around me. I need to be inside you. I need to taste every inch of you. I want to make love to you so much!"
"Yes you can Fitz. I want and need you too. I love you."
He picked her up and swirled her around. It was then that she remembered her friend and doctor, Neeka. "Fitz we forgot about Neeka," she said laughing out loud. "I'll call her tomorrow and apologize. Take me to bed Mr. President, right now!"
