You're what?" she asked not believing what she had just heard
"Were expecting a baby" Mellie explained
"Like a human baby?" Olivia asked her mind racing a mile a minute
"What other kind of baby would it be?" Mellie giggled
"I… I don't …. Wow …. I'm sorry …just wow … that's amazing Really Mellie I'm so happy for you" Olivia said
"Oh thank you Liv" Mellie said giving liv a hug. As they embraced Olivia glanced at Fitz who was staring at the floor not meeting her gaze
"So the reason why you're here is I feel like just announcing it is boring … we need something a little more creative" Mellie explained
"Oh I completely agree… this is huge news I mean nobody has kids in the Whitehouse … the media will have a field day with this"
"I know… it's so exciting … so do you have any ideas for how we can announce."
"I think I do …. So we want to symbolize how this presidency Is about the future so I think we should announce on Instagram"
"Instagram really?"
"Yeah … the first post of your administration. I think if we took the sonogram and taped it to a picture frame in the oval with the caption "favorite new picture" it would be amazing. We could even use the hashtag Americas Baby and get it to go viral …. Believe me this will literally be the most amazing thing ever posted in Instagram"
"Well you're the expert so guess we just have to trust you" Mellie said with a giggle "I'll go get the sonogram" she said leaving the office.
"You got her pregnant" Olivia said slowly and forcefully
"Liv I…." he said at a loss for words
"If I looked at someone the wrong way you would beat me up but you oh you can do anything because your Fitzgerald Fucking Grant"
"Liv please just let me explain"
"What could possibly say that would make this okay!"
"It was one time …. I was drunk and Lonely and she was there and I made a mistake and if I could take it back I would but I can't and I'm so sorry"
"No … I'm sorry ... I'm sorry that I wasted 2 years of my life on you …. You're a horrible person and we are done." She said as the door opened and Mellie entered
"I can't believe I actually found it" she said with a smile.
"Oh great … so do you guys have access to the oval yet?"
"You know we don't …. Not until the inauguration tomorrow."
"Okay so why don't you keep this and we will take the photos tomorrow."
"Great" Mellie said with a smile
Olivia quickly excused herself from the room … she felt sick. He had told her that he loved her but in reality she was mistress. She had let herself fall for him. She had spent so much time focused on him she had been a total bitch to the one guy who actually cared about her and now she wasn't sure if she could fix it, but she had to try.
She walked down the hallway towards his office, she had no clue what she was going to say but it didn't matter she just had to say something. She stood in the doorway of his office for a second before she had the courage to finally knock. He looked up at her for a second...
"Hey" she said quietly
"Oh hey" he said not meeting her gaze
"So I just want to apologize for being such a bitch I mean if I were you I would have slapped me by now that's how awful I've been"
"Don't worry its fine"
"No it's not …. You've been nothing but nice to me and I've been nothing but mean to you…. It's just I've had a lot of bad experiences with guys and I kind of have some commitment issues…. But maybe if you could forgive me I could commit to dinner sometime"
"Yeah I'd be down for that … what about Friday?"
"Yeah that works … so I'll see you around" She said walking away and for the first time in a long time she was actually excited about the future.
