"You fired me, remember?"
"And with good cause."
Fitz pulled out the chair across from her in the crowded restaurant where he told her to meet him. A crowded place would be better than going to her apartment and screaming at her.
"How's Olivia?"
"I honestly don't think that matters to you."
"I've tried to call her but she's ignoring me. I wanted to see how the girls are too."
"I don't blame her for ignoring you. I should be ignoring you all along. Rayna and Mackenzie are fine. With one exception."
"And that would be?"
"You're pregnant?"
"Yes."
"Olivia thinks that the kid is mine. And I know that it's not. So you need to go get a DNA test and prove to her that the baby is not mine."
"But it is yours."
"Bull shit and you know it."
"It is your child."
"Prove it. Show me the DNA test and I WILL be going with you because I know you'll try to fake it. I want the real results not some crock of shit you pulled up."
Olivia started breakfast for the girls getting them up for school. Mackenzie woke up and came out to the table.
"Where's your sister?"
"She said she didn't feel good. What's for breakfast?"
"French toast."
"MY FAVORITE!"
"Here you go, baby. I'm going to go check on Ray and see what's up." Olivia put the plate in front of Mackenzie and went to the bedroom sitting on the edge of Rayna's bed. "Hey, what's sick, baby girl?"
"My stomach hurts."
"Let's get you something to eat, maybe that will help."
"I don't want to eat."
"Are you sure? I have French toast."
"Momma I told you I have a head ache."
"Hmm, that's what I thought. Alright baby, what's the matter?"
"I don't feel good."
"How about I call in to work and get Daddy to take Mackenzie to school? Then you and I can stay in bed all day."
"NO! Don't call dad at all. I don't like him!"
Olivia laid down next to her in the bed and pulled her into her side.
"Why don't you like him? You had fun last night when he was here." Olivia's mind finally clicked. "Are you mad at daddy for what you heard about Aunt Abby?"
"I don't want to have any more brothers or sisters."
"I know, but you don't have to worry about that now. Aunt Abby is going to have a baby either way. And you can say it's your cousin instead."
"But daddy gave her a baby. I hate him!"
"You don't hate him, Rayna, you're just mad at him."
"But you hate him."
"I don't hate him. I'm just… daddy made me sad. But I do love daddy. Just as much as I love you and Mackenzie and Teddy and Karen. We will stop fighting soon."
"I don't want to go to school today."
"You know how I feel about you missing school, Ray. You have to go."
"Please momma? We both need a day off."
"I don't disagree. Alright but you have to go lay in my bed with me, okay?"
Rayna got out of bed and went to Olivia's room while she went to the kitchen with Mackenzie to grab her phone.
Fitz pulled out his ringing phone still sitting with Abby.
"Good morning, Olivia. Everything okay?"
"I need you to take Mackenzie to school today."
"When did Rayna have a doctor's appointment?"
"She's not feeling good today, so I'm keeping her home today." Olivia moved into the hall so Mackenzie couldn't hear her. "Rayna is really mad about… Can you come take her to school please?"
"Sure, I'll be there in a few minutes. I'm on your side of town."
"Thanks."
Fitz hung up and put his phone away.
"Everything okay?"
"Other than my daughter thinks that I got you pregnant, yeah it's great. I'll be there at the doctor's office this afternoon. Don't be late or I will send a detail to come get you."
"I'll see you then. And please tell Liv that I'm sorry."
Fitz left restaurant and headed with his detail to Olivia's apartment.
"Go get dressed for school, Mac. Daddy's going to take you to school today."
"YES! I'll be back."
Cleaning up the dishes, Liv waited for Fitz to come up.
After a few minutes, she answered the doorbell and let him in.
"Hi," he smiled seeing her still in her pajamas as he stepped in.
"Hey."
"Is she okay?"
"She hates you. But that's just her mad at you."
"I'm meeting Abby at the doctor's office this afternoon and I'll be putting a rush on the DNA test. With luck, we'll know before tomorrow morning for sure that it is not my baby."
"I'm going to keep her home today. She's really upset and she won't understand anything that they are going to teach her today."
"That's a good idea. Can I bring over dinner tonight? I'll pick up Mackenzie from school today and bring her back here. We can have a family dinner again."
"Fitz, we aren't getting back together."
"Don't say that, Liv. We are going to be together. We aren't getting a divorce. Let's talk about this after the test comes back tonight. I'll see you in a while."
Mackenzie ran up to the front door grabbing Fitz's leg and hugged him.
"Time for school daddy!"
"Right, let's go baby." Fitz picked her up and kissed Olivia's cheek before walking out to the elevator followed by his agents and Mackenzie's.
