Fitz POV
"Fitz?" she called out. I was shocked, to shocked to move or make a sound. She had a baby? How could she? I know she wasn't sleeping around so it had to be mine. Why would she keep something like that from me? Was I not good enough to know the truth? He's two? I missed out on two years of his life. What did he look like? What did he act like? Was he sensitive like me or very determined like Livi? All these thoughts were running through my head. I felt like the room was spinning and I couldn't see anything . I closed my eyes and slumped down in the couch.
"Fitz are you okay?" she cried. I ignored her and continued in my thoughts which made her angry.
"Fitzgerald Thomas Grant I know you hear me" she yelled. I finally opened my eyes and stared at her blankly. I didn't know what to say to her. I couldn't form any words what words were there to form? She just dropped a bomb on me out of no where what did she expect me to say? After my thoughts processed I was able to open my mouth.
"Why?" I asked. She looked at me for a second before she answered.
"Why what?"
"Why did you hide this from me, we could have worked things out, you had no right"
"I had every right to do what I thought was best for my son and you"
"He is mine to, you kept him from me I missed out on watching him grow up"
"I'm sorry, but to be honest the only reason I'm telling you this is because my sister said I should and I had a very bad dream. If I had it my way you would never know".
I lost my cool there, how could she say that to me with no regret or remorse. Who was this women standing before me and what did she do with my Livie?
"I want to see him"
"I- I don't think that's a good idea"
"Its apparent you don't know what good ideas are, therefore you have no say in this. I will see him and that is final" I fumed.
"And just how do you propose you will do that, the press will be all over you the minute you step out the white house, and then see you pulling up to my house to see your illegitimate kid, and Noah and I's business will be all over for the world to see . I refuse to have my son all over the media like that. " she fumed.
"Your absolutely right, bring him here"
"Are you out of your mind?" she asked
"No, say he's your nephew, cousin or your friends baby. I don't know make something up since you are very good at lying and keeping secrets" I smirked. "Tell them that you couldn't find a baby sitter and his parents are out of town, figure something out your smart JUST BRING HIM" I yelled.
She looked hurt but I didn't care karma is a bitch and she deserved a lot of karma for what she did.
"And to sit here and think that you loved me like I loved you. I was foolish, did you ever love me?" I asked.
"OF COURSE I LOVED YOU, THAT'S WHY I DID WHAT I DID. DO YOU THINK IT WAS EASY DOING THIS ON MY OWN? WELL IT WASN'T I WAS THE ONE WAKING OUT IN ODD HOURS IN THE MORNING FEEDIN HIM, I WAS THE ONE TAKING HIM TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN HE WAS SICK, I WAS THE ONE WHO CHANGED ALL THE DIRTY DIPERS. I WISH I HAD YOUR HELP BUT I DIDN'T YOU, HAD A JOB TO DO AND THAT WAS LEAD THIS COUNTRY I couldn't ask you to ruin everything that we all worked so hard for" she whispered the last part.
"you could have told me Livi, I am truly hurt. We could have figured something out"
"I know you don't understand but I did what I thought was right"
"You should have talked to me is all I am saying" I huffed
"I can't change the past Fitz I'm sorry" she quietly said.
"Sorry is not good enough Liv, sorry won't give me back the two years that I missed"
"I know" she muttered
"I want to meet him"
"I know"
"Like now". She looked up at me and laughed.
"I can't just go get him now and bring him here, I know you want to meet him but we will do this my way" she said coldly.
"Your way?"
"Yes my way or no way"
"Just get him here Liv" I pleaded.
"I will, but we cannot rush this. I have a couple pictures of him do you want to see?" she asked gently
"yes" I imagined him looking a lot like Liv with light brown eyes, pink lips, and rosy cheeks. I always imagined what my kids with Livi would look like.
She handed me her phone and I looked down at the picture of some girl and a little boy. He was cute, black curly hair light blue almost grey eyes, like mine. He had different traits from both of us but didn't really look like either one of us. I smiled once more at the picture before handing her back her phone.
"He's cute huh?" she asked
"Yea, what's his full name? and what is he like?" I asked
"well his name is Noah Michael Thomas Pope, I gave him your middle name. He is funny and sweet like you, but he does have a little bit of a temper. Like me he is very determined and does not quit even if he does get frustrated. He's very smart, I read to him as a baby and when he was 6 months I started to find cd's and podcast that teach your baby to talk earlier. So he started really talking by 1 and now he can hold full conversations but some words don't come out all the way. Its cute" she smiled
I didn't know what to say so I just nodded my head as she continued to talk about him.
"I should go" she stated
" Next week" I said
"What?"
"I want to meet him next week, I will schedule a meeting with you on Thursday"
"Like I said Fitz we will do this on my terms" she said icly
"LIKE I said Thursday or else" I spit
"Or else what Fitz?" she challenged
"You do not want to know, you are free to go Mrs. Pope" I said walking past her into the main halls of the White house.
Olivia POV
He pushed past me and left me standing in the office by myself. I fixed my self up before walking out the little room into the oval office and out the doors. I hopped into my car and sped home. I was not expecting this day to come so soon but I knew it would come eventually and I was prepared to do whatever I had to do to keep my son safe. Even if that meant going to some extremes.
