Olivia opened the door for Tucker and Carson. They immediately swarmed her with hugs.

"It feels like forever since we've last been here," said Tucker.

"I know, I was on vacation and then I just started working in my lab and we went out a couple nights this week but it's wasn't all fancy, we just snuck into the restaurants after it was closed so I didn't need to get all dolled up."

"Well we're glad you called us now."

She smiled and opened the door wider to let them in and then took them to her closet and waited for them to finish setting up.

"So what are you doing tonight honey, where are we going, talk to me," Tucker asked as he sat her in the chair.

She wasn't going to let them know it was their anniversary, she didn't trust them enough to reveal that so she played it safe.

"He didn't tell me where we're going, he said it's fancy though, I'm wearing a balmain resort white cape dress with long sleeves and a plunging v- neckline and I'm wearing a really nice necklace as well so I wanna show that off."

She got up and took the dress out of the garment bag.

The dress had an impactful silhouette, with flouncy cape sleeves, it had a black tie around the waist and while the dress was made to show cleavage, Olivia had it altered to make sure it didn't show anything too revealing. It stopped mid thigh and was fitted but not tight, it was sexy and elegant. She planned on wearing it with the black and white diamond encrusted necklace Fitz gave her and her diamond earrings. She wanted him to see her wear the necklace, after all the money she was sure he paid for it, she didn't want him to think she just put it to the side especially after what Elliot said about her not wearing her lavish gifts. Fitz was different though, he wasn't just another wealthy man throwing his money at her, his gifts were thoughtful and much more a show of appreciation and love, than a show of wealth.

"Love it," Carson said.

"Me too," Tucker added.

Olivia smiled and went back to sit in her chair.

"What shoes?"

"Just the regular black ankle strap Stuart Weitzman's."

"Okay, I know just the hair I'm giving you," said Carson.

Olivia sat patiently as he gave her pretty beach waves. She opted for no extensions and had Carson curl her own hair that reached several inches past her shoulders. While Carson did her hair, Tucker worked his magic on her face. They were done in no time and as usual, they packed their belongings as she got dressed while also helping her to get dressed.

Tucker and Carson left about 20 minutes before Fitz knocked on her door.

"Fitz, you have a key," she yelled as she grabbed her purse and phone.

He opened the door and immediately met her in the foyer.

"Oh shit."

Fitz's mouth fell open, "I mean- I… You look - wow."

Olivia blushed from flattery.

"Thanks, you look great as well."

Fitz wore a black Armani tuxedo and velvet Ferragamo loafers.

"Forget about me, you're wearing the hell out of that dress."

She giggled.

"Are you ready babe?"

"Yeah," he said with a smile as he noticed that she was wearing the necklace he got her, "there's a whole bunch of press outside, just so you know," he added.

"Yeah, I figured, that's fine though."

He took her hand and led her downstairs proudly, he was so in love with her he had no idea what to do with himself.

As they stepped out of the building and headed outside to the limo, the reporters screamed questions.

"Olivia, you look great, who are you wearing," that question was obviously from Tmz.

"Olivia, Dr. Confessore's publishing house withdrew his books from shelves, do you have any comment about his apparent plagiarism of your notes? He claims the white house helped sabotage his career, any comment Mr. President?"

"Mr. President, have you spoken to Mellie Grant since her allegations of infidelity."

"Olivia -"

They shut the car doors and as the limo pulled off the shouting faded out. As soon as they were a comfortable distance away Olivia relaxed and threw her leg over his and settled under his arm.

"So where are you taking me?"

"Somewhere far away."

"You aren't gonna tell me are you?"

"Do I ever."

Soon after, they were at joint base Andrews where they boarded AF1. Instead of going to the presidential cabin, he took her to the game room. There was a pool table, a poker table and a whack a mole table.

"I didn't know you guys had a game room on board."

"It's a really big plane."

Olivia looked over at a table in the corner of the room that had little sliders, kebabs and other fun snacks.

Olivia smiled and walked over to the table.

"You think of everything don't you?"

"I try," Fitz said with a smile.

She took one of the sliders and bit it.

"Oh my god, Fitz you have to taste this," she said as she chewed and swallowed her bite.

She held up the half of her slider that was left and fed it to him. He bit it and smiled.

"Holy shit, that is really good."

Olivia chuckled and took another slider off the table, so did Fitz.

Olivia was on her 4th slider when Fitz start laughing at her, he was on his 4th too but he was way bigger than her and it made him wonder where hers were going.

"Liv, where are those going?"

She chuckled.

"Hopefully, to my butt."

Fitz walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her and kissed her softly on the lips.

"Do you know how to play pool?"

"No, but I'm eager to learn," she said a seductively.

He walked her over to the edge of the pool table. He ran his hands up and her torso and kissed her shoulder.

"Relax," he whispered.

He kneeled down and undid the straps of her heels and slid them off her feet. He took one of the cue sticks and began his lesson, instructing her how to hold the stick, how to stand and how to shoot. Unsurprisingly, Olivia got the hang of it right away and they played a few rounds. After pool, they went on to poker. Olivia sat in his lap as they played which was the worst possible place to sit, he thought it was hilarious because all she did was cheat the entire game by peeking into hand. As they were about the play a second round, he saw Olivia grab her temple and wince.

"Baby is it a migraine?"

She nodded, her eyes were tightly shut and she held her temple as she whimpered in pain.

Fitz quickly got up and helped her over to the couch.

Olivia felt nauseous and she could feel her sliders coming back up.

"Fitz, I'm gonna throw up," she said as she covered her mouth.

He quickly grabbed the waste bin that was by the food table and brought it over to her. She immediately regurgitated the contents of her stomach into the bin. Fitz sat beside her and held her as she threw up and when she was finished he placed the bin on the floor and rested her head in his lap. He expected her to fall asleep right away like she usually did but she didn't, she just laid quietly in his lap.

He didn't speak because he knew how sensitive her ears were whenever she had her migraines. He thought maybe he should take her to the bedroom but she seemed comfortable.

About a hour and a half later, the crew announced they were landing. Upon hearing the announcement, Olivia sat up.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm okay, those sliders tasted way better going down than they did coming up but I'll live."

"Are you sure?"

"Yep, I just need wash out my mouth and check my face."

"But you're sure you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

Fitz still wasn't convinced.

"On a scale of 1 to 10, how okay are you?"

"Fitz," she said with a chuckle,

He kissed her hand.

"Okay," he replied softly.

He grabbed her heels and walked her to the bathroom located in the bedroom. She rinsed her mouth with mouthwash and fixed her makeup. When she was done, she opened the door and found Fitz standing right outside waiting for her.

"How do I look?"

"Perfect," he said knelt in front of her and helped her strap her heels back on. As he was on his knee in front of her, he kissed her thigh just below the hem of her dress.

Olivia giggled.

"You know, you can't kiss my thigh like that and expect me to keep my panties on."

He stood up and smiled then he led her to the front of the plane and the waited to disembark the plane. Once they stepped off the plane and onto the tarmac, Olivia began looking around to find clues.

"Fitz where are we?"

"Canada."

She stopped and faced him.

"What baby?"

He smiled.

"Yes we're in Canada."

Fitz took her hand and walked her quickly to the car and then they took off. They drove for another hour before the car came to a stop. Olivia tried getting clues from Fitz but he was mum, she also tried looking through the window to see where they were going but they were tinted so dark that she couldn't.

Fitz opened the door and took Olivia's hand in his.

"Are you ready?" He asked.

"I'm ready, I'm so excited to see what you have planned for us," she said excitedly.

Fitz took a deep breath before exited the car and helped her out as well.

Once she fully able to view the scene in front of her she was speechless.

They were by a huge lake, it was surrounded by pines trees and hills on the landscape. In the sky, were the northern lights; green, blue and violet lights dancing across the sky and reflecting beautifully across the still lake water.

On the shore of the lake, there were little white candles lined around the opening of forest. There were firefly string lights wrapped around the bark of the trees and up onto the branches. There were red rose petals in the form of a circle, carpeting the floor on the shore and a small blanket with cushions spread in the roses, with a bottle of champagne and a strawberries spread out for them.

Visually, it was absolutely stunning. She was sure he must have had some decorator design the set up because it was just that stunning. She heard music, soft romantic old school music coming from the forest, she thought maybe there were speakers in the trees.

"Do you like it?" Fitz questioned, snapped her out of awe inspired silence.

"Babe, I have no words, this is… perfect."

Fitz smiled.

"I'm glad you like you," Fitz said nervously.

He hadn't been nervous the entire flight but now that she was finally there, anxiety began to set in.

"Come on, we have a perfect view of the Aurora borealis, let's enjoy it."

He took her hands and slowly walked down the sea of roses and stopped just in front of the blanket. Olivia was about to sit on the blanket when Fitz stopped her.

"Liv, can you keep standing for one sec."

"Sure," she said absently as she looked across the lake at the northern lights, it was so beautiful that she had a hard time tearing her eyes away from it.

Fitz pulled the small box out of his jacket pocket and got down on one knee. He stayed silent as he waited for her to turn her attention from the lights and back to him.

Sailing by Christopher across played smoothly in the background, setting the tone just right, nostalgic and romantic.

When Olivia finally turned her attention back to Fitz and saw him on one knee in front of her she gasped and covered her mouth.

Fitz opened the small velvet box revealing her glistening diamond ring that somehow managed to sparkle in the night even though the moon was not in sight from where they were standing.

"Olivia Pope, will you marry me?"

She was frozen for a moment but then she regained her senses.

"Yes," she said with tear filled eyes.

Fitz smiled and took her hand and slipped the ring on her finger, it fit perfectly. Olivia couldn't take her eyes off the ring, she thought it was the absolute most beautiful piece of jewelry she'd ever seen and she couldn't believe it was hers, it was also a very large diamond.

Fitz signaled one of the guards and they spoke in the earpiece and seconds later, a barrage of fireworks were launched into the sky from the opposite sides of the lake. They were bright and beautiful.

The splendor from the fireworks and the northern lights in the sky, coupled with the beautiful decor around her and the ring on her finger left her in awe. Fitz could see that and caressed her cheek to bring her back from the reverie she had been lost in. She looked up at him a smiled as she stroked his cheek as well.

Fitz leaned down slowly and kissed her on the lips.

"You're gonna marry me," he said with a smile.

"Yes I am," she said as she wrapped her arms around his waist.

He kissed her again, deeper and slower this time. He tilted her head back and kissed her chin and neck and then went back to her lips.

"And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love, you make."

John Lennon and Paul Mccartney's 'golden slumbers/the end' played in the background.

"I love you," Fitz whispered.

"I love you too."

"Let celebrate," he said as he helped her into the blanket, he took her heels off and then he slipped his loafers off as well. Once she was sitting comfortably, he popped the champagne bottle open and poured two glasses. Olivia was fascinated by her ring and just sat staring at it.

"Liv," he called.

She snapped her head and gave him her attention.

"Here you go baby," he said as he handed her the glass of champagne.

"Thank you."

Fitz took a seat beside her and sipped his champagne.

Olivia was still staring at the ring.

"Fitz it's so big."

"It's not the first time you've told me that," he teased.

She slapped him playfully and chuckled.

"It's so beautiful."

Fitz let out a sigh of relief.

"I'm glad you like it, I was a little nervous you'd think pink and white diamonds were too much-"

"Wait they're pink?"

Olivia took her phone and turned on the flashlight and directed the light towards her ring.

"Oh my god."

The diamonds shimmered under the light and she could see with clarity the light pink and clear white diamonds.

"Wow, this is gorgeous, I love it baby."

Fitz smiled winningly and took another sip of his champagne then laid the glass down, Olivia did too and then they leaned back on cushions. Olivia snuggled on his side with her head rested on his chest as the both enjoyed the light show in the sky.

"Did you know, you seemed surprised?"

Olivia smiled.

"I was, I didn't think you'd do it is soon after we came back from Aspen."

"Good."

"By the way, where the hell are we?"

"Nova Scotia."

"Do you own is lake?"

"No, it's public property."

Olivia chuckled.

"So how did you plan this, you have to tell me everything."

"Okay, well, the day after our conversation in Aspen, I called Ezra Skarsgard and told him I needed to meet with him once I got back to D.C. I told him I needed a ring, preferably a 15 carat or so, he suggested the pink diamond and at first I didn't think you'd like that but then I changed my mind, Ezra is the specialist and you has great taste so I figured he knew what he was talking about. I had been thinking of locations for a while, I knew how beautiful the lights were up here at this time of year and you also told me you'd like to see the northern lights. I spoke with a meteorologist and luckily tonight was the night that they expected a big light show and so I had an event decorator come up and set all this up and yeah, that's it. There was a guy behind us taking pictures of me proposing, he should be gone now. By the way, those are non conflict diamonds, I made sure of it."

Olivia smiled.

"You did good, you really blew me away, this is perfect."

Olivia gently pulled his chin down to her and kissed him gingerly. As she kissed him, she heard the intro to one her favorite song and pulled away and sat up.

"We have to dance to this."

She stood up and took his hand and he stood up as well. Fitz took her in her arms and they moved slowly.

"While I'm far away from you, my baby,

I know it's hard for you, my baby,

Because it's hard for me, my baby,

And the darkest hour is just before dawn," Olivia sang softly in tune with the song.

"Each night before you go to bed, my baby,

Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby,

And tell all the stars above,

This is dedicated to the one I love."

Fitz spun her around and dipped her and she responded with a resounding giggle that echoed into the surrounding forest. He spun her again, this time right into his chest and then he wrapped his arms around her. The both stood, swaying slowly to the music as they looked up at the light show.

"I love you so much," Fitz whispered after a while.

Olivia smiled and turned to face him.

"Enough to make love to me right here, right now."

Fitz looked around at all the agents.

"The guards."

"I don't care, tell them to look away and cover their ears while you make love to your fiancée."

"Mmm… I like it when you say fiancée, say it again."

"Fiancée," she said cheekily.

Fitz kissed her.

"Say it again," he said as he laughed.

"Fiancée."

They both laughed as Fitz walked her back to the blanket and laid her head on the cushion.

"Tom," Fitz called.

Tom quickly walked over.

"Yes sir."

"No eyes on us."

Tom nodded and walked away quickly.

"What does that mean, is that like code or something?"

"Yes," Fitz said as he kissed her, "it means we want privacy."

Olivia pulled her dress up so Fitz could pull her panties off and then she helped him undo his tuxedo pant. He took off his jacket and rolled up his sleeve and then hovered over her and kissed her.

"Don't, don't, that's what you say,
Each time that I hold you this way,
When I feel like this and I want to kiss you,
Baby, don't say don't."

The sultry Zoë kravitz rendition played of the Elvis Presley classic played in the background.

Olivia spread her legs wide apart for him and slowly guided him inside her. She moaned delightfully at the sensation. She pulled his face down and kissed him. He slid his tongue in and out of her mouth, slowly, erotically. She loved it when it when he kissed her like that, it sent shivers down her spine. She brought her hands up to his face and held his cheeks as they kissed. Fitz began grinding slowly and Olivia moved her hands from his waist to lower back shoved him deeper. Fitz moaned in her mouth as he kissed and it only made her want him more.

She switch positions so she was on top and pulled down the sleeve of her dress, exposing her breast so Fitz could grope them as she rode him slowly to the brink of an orgasm. When Fitz felt his impending orgasm he flipped her and laid her flat on the ground with her legs spread open. He kneeled in front of her and took her right there until they both came.

An hour later, when the lights began to disappear from the sky, Fitz got up from their comfortable cuddling position. They'd been making out for the past 15 minutes and as reluctant as he was to leave, they needed to go.

"I think the show is over," he said.

Olivia stood up and looked around for her underwear but Fitz spotted it first. He picked it up and held it out for her, she stepped into them and Fitz pulled them up her legs slowly and then gave her a kiss on the thigh as he stood up.

Olivia smoothed out her hair and fixed her dress and then she helped button up Fitz's shirt and fix his bow tie. Fitz helped her with her heels and then slipped on his shoes afterwards.

Once they acknowledged that they were both appropriate, they headed to the car to leave for the airport.
