Olivia POV
It had been 3 months since the accident. Noah had been awake for 2 months now. He was discharged from the hospital 6 weeks ago. He was not quite himself but he was 75 percent better. Fitz had snuck out almost every night to see him.
"Fitz you can't keep coming over here, I don't think we are sending Noah the right message. He is getting confused" I sighed.
"What do you mean, confused?" Fitz asked.
"Well the other day he asked me how come his friends mom and dad lived together, and we didn't. I had no idea what to say to him" I said.
"Well what do you say?" he asked?
"I just told him that his friends mommies and daddies are different from us."
"I don't think he will understand at his age" he said
"Speaking of age his third birthday is coming up in a couple of days-"
"Yea I'm sure you're having a birthday party just tell me a time and we will be there. Karen, Jerry and Jackson will be delighted to finally meet Noah" Fitz interrupted.
"Well before you interrupted me I was going to say that you can't come to the birthday party, because my friends will be there, Noah's friends will be there, my family, and neighbors. Its too risky but after the party if you guys can get away we can have a small get together.
"Liv I want this, I want to be there for our son's birthday my first birthday with him"
" I know you do but it's not the best decision, and coming afterwards is still on his birthday so technically you will be there." I smiled.
"Yea I guess. I should go" he whispered
"You should go" . He grabbed his coat and walked down to Noah's room to kiss him goodnight and then left. I felt an emptiness in my heart once he was gone. I walked into Noah's room and gently slid him over and held him. I went to sleep holding onto a part of Fitz that night.
Day of Noah's Birthday
11am
I walked into Noah's room where he was still peacefully sleeping. I couldn't help but stare at him, he was so precious I was glad to have him in my life. I had to wake him up so that Abby could take him to her house while, Huck, Harrison, David, Quinn and I set up his party. I tapped his shoulder lightly. "Noah, Noah baby get up"
"Huh" he answered just above a whisper. "Get up I have to get you dressed. Happy third Birthday" I smiled as I hugged him. "I tree" he rubbed his eyes.
"Yea you are a big boy now. Come on lets get you dressed".
Fitz POV
It was a beautiful Saturday morning and it was Noah's Birthday. I decided to call Livvie and to wish him happy birthday. She answered on the 5th ring.
"Hello" she said. Chills went up my spine from her voice.
"Hey Liv, can I speak to him?" I asked.
"Yes make it quick Abby is here to take him" she replied before passing the phone.
"Hewwo?"
"Hey buddy, Happy Birthday"
"Tank you, I tree now daddy. Imma big boy." he said excitedly.
"Yeah I know you are, but hey I'm going to call you later and we will finish talking then. I sent your presents a couple days ago so they should get to you by today. I said.
"Yay!, my pwesents! Wad I get?" he asked.
"I can't tell you or then the surprise would be ruined" I laughed.
"Okay, bye daddy" he said before passing the phone to Liv.
"I have to go get ready for his party, see you tonight" she said before hanging up.
After the phone call I sent for Karen and Jerry who were here on spring break.
"Hey dad what's up?" Karen greeted me. A couple months ago I broke the news to them that I had a child with Olivia. Karen was not surprised but Jerry took it sort of hard because he felt that I betrayed him because I knew he had a huge crush on Liv.
"So today is Noah's birthday and Liv invited us over later on tonight to spend it with them if you guys want to go"
"Of course I want to go. I can't wait to finally meet him!" Karen screamed.
"What about you Jerry?" I asked. He didn't respond.
"Jerry" Karen said.
"Um I guess I'll go" he finally responded.
"Great! We will leaving around 10pm" I smiled.
"Why do we have to go that late?" Karen asked.
"To make sure everyone has left so we can all be alone with them" I said more trying to convince myself then them.
Noah POV
It was my birthday and most of my friends and family were here. I couldn't wait to open my presents and eat my cake. I wished my dad could be here but mommy told me that if he could have been here he would. That made me feel a little better.
Elizabeth POV
My mom and dad flew out here for Noah's birthday and they would be staying here for a while to visit and catch up with us. "Poots look who's here" I said to Noah as he came running over. "Nana and paw" he screamed as he jumped up on my dad.
"Hey there Noah Bear. I've missed you" my mom said while giving him a kiss.
"Me too. My pwesents wit you?" he asked.
"Noah" Live scolded him. "You don't ask that. That is rude"
"Sowwy" he smiled.
"Olivia that boy can ask about his presents all he wants it is his birthday" mom laughed.
"Mother please don't go against what I say in front of him, or else he will never listen to me. " Liv responded.
"Livvie it is not the serious" I said as we all walked to the backyard.
All the adults were sitting around the table talking and watching the kids play. It was a beautiful and the kids seemed to be having the time of their lives.
"He's going to be a leader" I said to Liv as we watched a bunch of kids follow Noah wherever he went. "Yea he has that in his genes" she smiled.
"You ever gonna tell dad who Noah's father is?" I asked. "NO he would freak out you know he hates republicans" she smiled.
"He has a right to know Liv and you told mom and I so it would only be fair" I said.
"Well Fitz might come by tonight so I guess I don't have a choice do I? she sighed.
"Yea I know I over heard your convo with him. Well I guess its time to cut the cake and open presents now" I said as we got up from the table.
Olivia POV
My sister and I were heading to get the cake when my mother stopped us. "Lizzie honey can you bring the cake out, I need to talk to your sister"
"Sure mom" Liz said as she walked out.
"How are you sweetie? You don't seem like your self" my mother asked.
"I'm okay"
"What's bothering you. A mother knows her child"
"It's nothing mom. Thank you though. I'll be fine"
"He is a beautiful little boy. He looks a lot like him. If you stare at him for a while" she said.
"What?" I whispered.
"Noah. He looks a lot like his daddy. I know your stressed about your father, your sister told me that he was coming tonight-"
"She has a big ass mouth" I blurted out.
"Watch your language Olivia. I know you don't want him to know but sooner or later he will have to find out from you or someone else. But for tonight I will take your father out and ill give you a couple days to tell him your self."
"Thanks mom" I smiled at her.
"Mommy, Mommy I eat my cake now?"
"Yes baby, come on" I said as I picked up Noah and headed outside.
9:30 PM
Fitz POV
"Come on Karen we need to leave" I yelled.
"Sorry dad I had to get my phone, geesh" she huffed. Tom and Hal pulled the car around the back and we all entered the car. I was getting nervous about the kids meeting him. 30 minutes later we pulled up to Liv's house.
"Sir we will pick you all up around 1am to get you guys back before the press" Tom said.
"Thank you" I smiled as I took Jackson out of his car seat. We were in the elevator on our way up.
"I'm so excited, I hope he likes us" Karen said
"Yea me too" Jerry agreed.
"He will don't worry" I assured them and myself. We walked up to her door and I knocked.
"Hello?" a girl answered the door. I didn't expect anyone to still be here.
"Um hi, I'm looking for Olivia" I said.
"Wow I can't believe you're the President of The United States. You're even cuter in person" she smiled.
"Thank you" I smiled kindly at her.
"Hold on I'll be right back. Come in thought" she said.
"Wow she's really hot" Jerry said.
"Ew" she's like 5 years older than you" Karen said.
"Who is that dad?" Gerry asked
"I have no idea" I replied. A minute later she came out of a room with Noah on her hip
"No Nos look who's here" she said as she pointed to us sitting on the couch. He stared at Karen, Jerry and Jackson, then he looked at me and got down off her hip.
"Daddy" he said running towards me.
"Hey buddy Happy Birthday" I smiled
"You came, yay" he clapped his little hands together.
"Yea I did and I brought some people here to meet you" I said as I pointed to the kids.
"These are your brothers and sister" I said to him.
"Hi" he smiled at them.
"Hi, Happy birthday" Karen smiled. Just then Olivia emerged from her room looking beautiful. She was breathtaking at that moment it was only me and her in the room no on else.
"Hi" I smiled.
"… Hi" she replied .
