"Liv we need to talk." Fitz said as he sat on the edge of the bed. Fitz had just returned from a week long business trip, and he had been mustering up the courage to talk to Liv the whole time. It was time he brought it up.

"Ok, I have a present for you, but I guess it could wait until after. What's wrong?" Liv asked as she sat on the bed. As much as she tried to hide it, the worry was evident on her face.

"Present?"

"Yes, now, what do you want to talk about?"

"It's about Zion. He's my son, and as such I feel as though he should have my last name." Fitz looked down and started fumbling with his hands before continuing. "I mean, in a few weeks you will have my last name, and the new baby will as well. I just thought..."

Liv laughed at how nervous Fitz was. She thought it was actually cute, the way he would begin fumbling when speaking about something serious with her. Fitz looked at her through slanted eyes.

"What's so funny?" He asked trying to control his anger. Here he was opening up to her and she was laughing at him?

"Fitz honey, open your present."

"Not until you tell me what is so funny." Fitz growled, crossing his arms across his chest. Liv straddled Fitz's lap and held his face in her hands.

"Fitz, OPEN. YOUR. PRESENT." Liv said once again. This time her voice had taken on a serious tone. Fitz looked down at the present which was inside of a manila envelope. He opened it and pulled out a paper.

"It's Zion's birth certificate." Fitz said nonchalantly.

"Read it." Liv said pointing to the document.

"Zion Thomas Grant... Grant! Zion Thomas Grant! Livvie, it says-"

"Yes. I-"

Fitz pulled Liv closer and his hungrily sought her lips, cutting her off mid sentence. Liv tried to break the kiss but Fitz was too strong. She quickly conceded defeat and melted into the kiss. When they finally came up for air, Liv tried to get her words out as quickly as possible.

"I went to the department of records to have it fixed after the interview. They were backed up due to low staffing which is why it took so long, but now it's official. He's Zion Thomas Grant. But read further."

Fitz's eyes reluctantly turned back to the paper and he noticed something that wasn't on the original. He was listed as the father. Even though it was just a piece of paper, the legality of being listed as Zion's father meant more to him than Liv could ever begin to understand. Zion was legally his child too.

Fitz flipped the both of them over so he was now on top and began attacking Liv's neck.

"Thank you." He said as he propped himself on his elbows and looked into Liv's eyes.

"There was never any doubt I would add you. When the timing was right of course."

Fitz claimed Liv's mouth once again as his hands crept under her blouse and to her back. He began to unfasten her bra when there was a knock on the door.

"Mommy, I'm hungry." Zion said, his tiny voice pulling at Liv's heart strings. Liv pushed Fitz off of her and began to fix her clothing before making her way to the door.

"Mommy, I'm hungry too. You cant leave me like this!" Fitz said pointing to his obvious erection, with a hint of playfulness in his voice. Liv walked back to the bed and kissed Fitz's forehead.

"Welcome to parenting: Zion 101. Mommy will take care of daddy later, I promise." Liv said as she opened the door and followed Zion downstairs.

"Are you ready?" Fitz asked as he jumped on the bed causing Liv's paperwork to fly around the room.

"Ready for what?" Liv asked as shook her head at the big child kneeling before her. Fitz had been waiting a month for this day.

The tuxedo's, dresses and gown had been ordered, the RSVPs were finally finished rolling in except for a few last minute people calling Abby, begging to be added to the list. They had chosen Abby because it didn't matter who you were; mayors, governors, and senators alike she had no problem shutting people down. Fitz was just glad he had received early confirmation from the Reston Administration. Although, he could actually picture the look on Reston's face discovering that he wasn't on the list. Fitz smiled at the thought, wishing for a moment it was a reality.

The flowers, decorations ice sculptures, and food had been ordered and they could finally breathe, a little. Everything was ready for the wedding, but the wedding itself was still two weeks away. Today was the day Liv and Zion would find out the surprise Fitz had in store for them. Fitz had been dropping hints for weeks and was quite surprised neither of them had caught on. With a smile on his face, Fitz picked Zion up and set him on his lap.

"Well, since we will be away for a while after the wedding, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity for us to take a little trip with Zion." Fitz said still not letting on to where they were going.

"A trip? Where Fitz?"

"Yes daddy where?"

Fitz thought for a moment before responding.

"You see Zion, times like these are magic, so we don't need cheese to feed the mice where we are going. To see this kind of royalty is something a child never forgets." Fitz looked at Liv before continuing. "It's a time full of wonder. It's new world..."

Liv thought for a moment and it finally clicked. She smiled at Fitz and laid the sweetest kiss on his lips. Liv looked at Zion who was still deep in thought, and offered him one final clue.

"Playhouse, Aladdin, Tarzan.." Liv said. Both she and Fitz smiled as Zion's eyes lit up.

"Disney World?" Zion squealed as he began jumping up and down.

"Disney World." Fitz confirmed with a grin. "But there's more. Huck, Quinn, Harrison, Abby, Cyrus, James, Ella, and Stephen are going with us. One big family outing. I asked pop pop to join us, but he couldn't get enough time away from the Smithsonian to come."

Liv looked at Fitz and he knew she was seconds away from cancelling the trip. Then came the confirmation. The moment he had been preparing for for the past month.

"No. Fitz"

"Livvie..." Fitz nodded his head towards Zion urging Liv to not comment any further. Fitz set Zion down and told him to go play while he and Liv had a talk. When Fitz heard Zion's door close he turned to Liv.

"What's going on? You and Stephen were so close." Fitz asked. He already knew the answer as he had spent this past month talking to Stephen and letting him get to know this side of him better.

"Fitz, please. This isn't a good idea. Not Stephen. He's... Not happy with the choices I've made as of late." Liv said trying to keep her voice from breaking.

Out of everyone in the OPA, Stephen was her strength. They had been through so much together, and for Stephen to come back into her life and help with Zion meant the world to Liv. But when he found out that Fitz was back in the picture, he backed off.

Liv knew Stephen didn't approve of her relationship with Fitz, she'd known it for a very long time. But this time was different. Fits was divorced, and he wanted to be in ger and Zion's life full time. Liv never once thought Stephen would make her choose between the father of her child, the man she loved more than life itself, and him, and technically he didn't. But even though he may not have said the words, his actions spoke far louder.

"Livvie, Stephen and I have been talking. He wants to patch things up you. I think he's coming around. Either way, I need you to trust me. Stephen is important to you and I need for this friendship to be fixed before our wedding." Fitz said as he reached out for her hand. Fitz pulled Liv into his lap and wrapped his arms around her waist. Liv relaxed against him and felt like she could face anything.

"Fine. But I'm holding you responsible for anything that happens on this trip." Liv sighed.

"Everything will be fine. I promise." Fitz said as he began kissing Liv's neck.

"When do we leave?"

"In two days. We can pack later. Right now, I say we go get lunch . My children need to eat." Fitz said as he began caressing Liv's belly.

"Good idea. Abby will be here soon to pick up Zion. It's math and science day with her and Huck."

"So maybe I'll just wait until they leave to feast on my lunch." Fitz said causing Liv to blush.

"Wow." Fitz said as he walked into the bedroom and saw Liv laying across the bed wearing nothing but a black laced bra and matching thong. Curls framed her face, and Fitz could still see water glistening off of them.

"You showered without me?" Fitz asked with a genuine frown.

"I'm sorry. I've been naughty." Liv moaned as she bit her lower lip. Liv raked her fingers across the lace of her bra and smiled as she saw Fitz's breathing hitch.

"You've been very naughty indeed." Fitz said as he swallowed hard.

"Then maybe you should punish me." Liv said as she rolled onto her stomach and looked back at Fitz. The bulge in his pants was evident and Liv knew she had him right where she wanted him. In three swift steps Fitz had removed his clothing and was on the bed. He hungrily began attacking Liv's neck until her words rang in his head.

Punish me...

Fits stood up for a moment causing Liv to groan her disapproval. He walked into his closet and returned a few moments later, taking his position once again between Liv's thighs.

"Move forward" he said as he reached for a few pillows to place under Liv. She did as she was told, looking back to Fitz for further instruction.

"Good. Now hold onto the headboard." Liv bit her bottom lip and again did as she was told. She instantly regretted the move as Fitz tied her hands to the headboard, restricting her movements.

"You have the most beautiful ass I have ever seen." Fitz said as he began massaging the mounds.

Smack

"So perfect. You know, when you lay like this your body forms a heart. So I'm guessing your ass loves when I do this."

Smack

"Do you?" Fitz asked as he massaged the mounds, relieving some of the sting. The mix of pain and the pleasure of Fitz's words, combined with what was to come had Liv already on the verge of climax. Liv moaned her response, but it wasn't nearly good enough. Determined to get an audible answer, Fitz decided to kick it up a notch.

Fitz spread Liv's legs, opening her up to him fully. He parted her folds and began tracing circles around her bundle of nerves adding a slight amount of pressure, causing Liv to begin thrusting against his hand.

"Fitz..." Liv moaned not sure her body could withstand the slow torture.

"Do you?"

Smack

"Love it when I do this?" Fitz asked knowing Liv couldn't hold out much longer. He inserted one then two fingers inside her core causing her to cry out.

"Yes! Yes Fitz! Go-" Liv lost her train of thought as Fitz began pumping his fingers in and out of her, making sure to apply the right amount of pressure to her nub.

"Yes... What?" Fitz asked as he reached around with his free hand and pinched Liv's nipple. The act made her cry out again.

"Yes Mr. President!" Liv cried praying Fitz would give her the released she needed. Liv groaned when she felt Fitz remove his fingers, but breathes a sigh of relief as Fitz lined himself up with her core and entered her, stretching her fully.

Liv felt like the room was spinning as Fitz began setting a slow yet steady pace. Her mouth went dry as he began tracing her spine with his tongue.

"Fitz, un... untie me. Please?"

Smack

"Not yet. You were a very naughty girl. You didn't wait for me." Fitz said as he continued his slow, torturous movements.

"Fitz..."

"Will you be a good girl from now on?"

"Yes!"

"Wrong answer!" Fitz said as he pulled out and thrust himself back in. In all aspects of their relationship Liv was in charge. Everywhere she called the shots. Everywhere except the bedroom. Fitz had to admit that he needed the feel of Liv's hands on him. Deciding to give in, Fitz leaned forward and untied Liv's restraints, never missing a beat. Knowing what Liv needed, Fitz flipped her over onto her back and reentered her again.

Liv wrapped her arms and her legs around him and kissed Fitz hungrily, thankful for the change in position. Liv was her most vulnerable during their lovemaking, and Fitz's body pressed against hers, his weight anchoring her made her feel safe. The rapidly growing baby was another reason Liv welcomed the change in position. Liv pulled Fitz's head down to hers and worked her tongue into his mouth.

Fitz changed his pace and his thrusts began slow and deep, matching the pace Liv set with her tongue. Fitz felt her walls clamping down around him and could tell she was close.

"I love you Olivia Carolyn Grant." Fitz said before reclaiming Liv's mouth. The words rang in Liv's warlike a sweet symphony, and Liv screamed as her orgasm exploded through her body. Fitz came not to long after and collapsed on the bed. Liv shifted her body so her head was resting on Fitz's chest and began playing with the curls that lay there.

"Say it again." Liv said as she placed soft kisses on Fitz's chin. Fitz looked down and smiled when he saw just how bright Liv's eyes were.

"I love you. Olivia. Carolyn. Grant."

"I love you too Fitz."

They had two weeks before it would become official, but Liv absolutely loved the sound of it.

"Livvie, can you get my phone for me?" Fitz yelled from the bathroom. He was giving Zion a bath, and couldn't exactly get to it.

Liv picked up the phone and saw that it was Cyrus.

"Hey Cy! What's up?"

"Just calling to see how the soon the be bride and groom are doing? Are you nervous?" Cyrus asked knowing Liv probably hadn't gotten to that point yet.

"Why would I be nervous Cy? Fits and I love one another. I have no doubts about our future together." Liv said, responding just how Cyrus expected her to.

"Ok. Well, is your groom to be busy? I wanted to talk to him about his bachelor party."

"He's giving Zy a bath. There won't be any strippers at this party Cyrus?" Liv asked in a warning tone.

"Liv, we're too old for that. Just us guys, some poker, bourbon, and very expensive cigars." Cyrus said. Liv was sure Cyrus was telling the truth and let the matter go.

"You want me to have him call you back? It may be a while though. We have to Zion about Teddy, Jerry, and Karen being in the wedding."

"Sure thing... Liv, good luck with Zion. Call me if you need me."

"Will do Cy." Liv said and hung up. Liv looked at Fitz phone and saw he had a text.

"Fitz honey, you have a missed text."

"Who's it from?"

"Not sure."

"Read it to me."

Liv clicked on the message icon and began reading the message out loud.

I can't wait until your long thick tongue is dragging across my hot wet...

Liv paused mid text and instantly saw red. No! This could not be happening. She was his endgame! He said so! He swore she wouldn't be the next Mellie. Fits came running into the room the same time Liv threw his phone across the room, hitting him in the head.

"Fitz!?"

"Livvie, that text isn't for me I swear!" Fitz yelled as another message came through. Liv tan across the room snatching the phone from Fitz's hands.

I miss you thickness buried deep inside of me. Help me Fitzy.

Liv turned to Fitz and smacked him as hard as her body would allow. The contact caused Fitz to stumble backwards a few steps, as he held his face in shock.

"Livvie, you can't possibly-"

"Possibly what Fitz!? Possibly think you're screwing someone on the side!? No! Why the fuck would I think that!? Oh wait! Maybe because I was once the one you were banging on the side!?" Liv's face turned from one of anger to one of pure pain. Fitz's heart broke in half as he saw her heart break.

"Livvie, it really hurts that you would believe that I would ever! Livvie please!" Fitz said as he walked towards Liv. She stepped backwards away from him until he had her trapped into a corner. Feeling like a trapped rat, Liv began swinging, using anything within arms reach to hit Fitz. Having had enough and just wanting her to listen, Fitz grabbed Liv's arms and pinned them above her head. He looked down and saw the tears pouring from Liv's eyes.

"Fitz, the wedding is off!" Liv said. Every word hit Fitz like a ton of bricks.

"Livvie, listen to me!"

"What is there to say? How many people could possibly be called Fitzy, and what are the odds of it going straight to your phone! The wedding is off! Now let me go!"

"Listen to me damnit!" Fitz yelled causing Liv to jump.

"Now Livvie think. We have sex three, four, five, sometimes six times a day. We are almost always together, and if I were cheating on you, why the fuck would I ask you to answer my phone? Why would I let you anywhere near my phone!?" Fitz tried his best to keep the panic out of his voice and in turn showed the pain.

He knew he had been with Liv while he was still married to Mellie, but he hadn't seen Mellie as a wife or Liv as a mistress. He couldn't technically cheat on someone that didn't want him. Liv was his saving grace and although he made mistakes, he would never deliberately hurt her that way. Fitz saw as the wheels in Liv's mind began to turn. He felt Liv relax and look up at him. Her features had softened a little as her mind sprang into fixer mode.

"Give me your phone." Liv said in a barely audible whisper. Fitz handed Liv the phone and stepped back, stopping when he had reached the door. Liv thought a moment longer and began to text the number back.

I must've been a little too bombed. Remind me again how that evening went.

Liv waited a moment and wasn't surprised when the number texted her back.

Last Thursday, we hooked up on your business trip to New York. You were really bombed, but you said you'd never forget me.

Liv thought back to last Thursday. Fitz was supposed to have left for his trip that morning, but chose to take a later flight because Zion was sick and he didn't want to leave his side. Liv had to force him to leave Saturday morning. Fitz's trip was publicized, but his late arrival was not. The only other person Liv has ever known that referred to Fitz as Fitzy was Mellie. It wasn't a term of endearment, it was condescending in nature. Liv walked over to Fitz and kissed him, her lips full of remorse.

"I'm sorry I doubted you baby. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. The wedding isn't off." Liv said as she realized Fitz was being set up. Fitz grabbed Liv by her waist with such force she knew he'd left a mark. He lowered his head so his lips hovered just above her ear.

"I told you before, you're my end-game. Only you from here on out."

"Ok well honey, I'm going to need bail money." Liv said as her face visibly turned a scary shade of red. Liv grabbed her phone and texted Huck, asking him to trace the number. A few moments later Liv got a response and reached for her purse and keys. She sent another message to Abby telling her to bring "drill baby drill" with her. Liv kissed Fitz and headed towards the door.

"Don't forget, bail money Fitz!"

"Bail money?" Fitz asked growing slightly scared.

"Yes, bail money. Because when I see Mellie, I'ma beat her ass!"
