You Did What, Abby?
"Abby, it is 8:15AM on a Saturday. Why are you calling me?"
"Liv, want to meet for brunch later?"
"I don't know. I'm a bit tired." Liv was thinking about her dream; her time on the Island with Jake and she just wanted time with her thoughts.
"Liv?"
"Okay Abby, lets meet at 11:30 at the French bistro in Adam Marks. It's time I start doing fun stuff again" After they hung up Liv pulled the covers and closed her eyes. It was good that she made plans with Abby. She needed to get out there and be with people who were not Jake or Fitz. It was the whole point of choosing herself.
Liv and Abby arrived at the Bistro around the same time, got a table immediately and ordered coffee. Liv looked at Abby, noticed that she was in a contemplative mood and went straight into fixing mode.
"Abby, you spend Saturdays with David. I don't mean to pry, but is everything okay?"
"David isn't talking to me, liv I slept with Leo Bergen and David found out and now he is avoiding me like the plague. Abby said with a hint of fear and uncertainty in her voice.
"Abby!" Liv looked at her with a shocked expression. "How did that happen?"
"I like him, Liv. Leo makes me laugh and I am so relaxed around him. I have strong feelings for David too. It's confusing, right?"
Liv held Abby's hands in support but did not draw reference to herself even though she was pretty much in the same position.
"Abby, don't make any snap decisions. You might want to take a break from both of them and spend some time thinking about what's right for you. I am always here for you if you want to talk."
"Does that work for you, Liv?" Abby said without taking her eyes off her friend
"Yes, Abby, it does." Changing the subject quickly, Liv said, "we're brunching, so let's eat. Ok."
After brunch, Abby went home and Olivia dropped by OPA to catch up on a few loose ends. She'd just sat down at her desk when her phone rang.
(Heh! So not to be outdone, Abby has two lovers like all the other women on Scandal)
