Chapter 6

White House - 6PM

Olivia walked into Fitz's office and turned when his secretary spoke. "He will be right with you." Then she turned and went back to her desk, closing the door behind her. A minute later the door open and Tom, Fitz's secret service, agent appeared.

"Ms. Pope, will you follow me please."

Whatever Fitz wanted to talk about, clearly he couldn't do it in the office with the camera. Olivia nodded then followed Tom to the residence into one of the guest bedrooms. She knew Mellie was out of town in New York for a cause that she couldn't remember nor did she really care about.

"The President will be right with you Ms. Pope." Tom nodded then turned and closed the door.

Olivia felt nervous because she could not figure out why Fitz couldn't say what he had to say on the phone the night before or in the oval office. She looked at the room and saw the bed there; she was NOT having sex with him. There was unspoken tension between them that could not be solved with sex. She heard the door open and turned around.

No words were spoken, they just stood there for one minute staring at each other. He broke the silence.

"Livvie." He began to walk towards her, flashbacks of their last "private encounter" made her take a step back. He stopped walking.

"Fitz..." It was all she could say, not knowing how to move forward and begin.

Fitz understood her hesitation and gestured to the couch, so they could sit and talk. She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding, nodded and followed him to the couch and sat down. Fitz didn't know where to begin, grabbing her hand he decided to ask her.

"Livvie this ...I have two things to confess. There is bad news and worse news. I want this to stay between us. I want you to keep loving me because I cannot live without you. This past year has been pure hell for me and I never want to go through anything like that ever again." He looked in her eyes keeping a firm grip on her hand. "We are in this together?"

Olivia hesitated at first then slowly nodded.

"Fitz, what is the bad news?"

"I had someone following you...watching you at home, work, everywhere. I was so hurt and betrayed and I invaded you. I had him stop weeks ago, but the fact that I had crossed the line with your privacy was eating me alive. I don't know which tore into my soul more." (Her hand loosened within his grip, but he moved closer to her he couldn't have her break contact). "Livvie, I need you, these secrets, are too much. Drinking myself into oblivion doesn't even help anymore."

She knew that he probably had somebody following her, but watching her at home, work...she didn't know how deep that went. A part of her was fine not knowing too. She knew when he made those comments about Edison last year that he had someone trailing her. She would forgive him in due time, but right now their trust with each other was nowhere in sight. What was the other secret? What could be worse. What did he...-

"I killed Verna."

Wait what, her eyes were like saucers, but Verna was in the hospital when she died. How did he...why did he think that?

"Fitz, Verna died at the hospital. I seen her earlier before she died. Her death was no-"

"She told me about Defiance." His voice was barely above a whisper. "She told me of how everything came into play and that she wanted to turn herself in to the DA's office. She was going to bring the administration down because she didn't want to die with that on her conscience."

"Fitz...-"

"She also told me that she was the one who paid that girl to kill me. She said she owed me the truth because of my father." He shook his head and scoffed. "My father."

She still didn't understand how he killed her. But she just let him gather his thoughts and finish.

"I was going to walk out, but this woman was going to die and let us suffer while she "rested in peace." I turned around, walked to her, held her arms and pulled of her mask that supplied her with oxygen. I held her arms down as she gasped for air. I am so sorry that I took a life, but I am not sorry that I saved the lives of five other people. If she would have talked to the DA, me, you, Cyrus, Hollis, and even my bitch of a wife Mellie would have suffered and she would have had no consequences. So I cut off her air supply and made sure everyone's legacy remained intact."

Liv only stared at him. She just stared at him. He committed murder, the love of her life whom she cherished like her next breath was a murderer. She did not agree with what he did with one bit, but she DID look at the bigger picture. She was sitting here right now because of him stopping Verna last attempt to get into heaven.

He had began to cry in her lap and Liv's heart begin to break. She let him cry and caressed his head, she knew he had been holding this in and needed to let him get it out. After about five minutes Liv pulled Fitz's head to let him know that she was there.

"Fitz, this is not on you. You need to let this go and move on. I have never left your side and I will continue to be here right by your side."

"I've done terrible things Livvie…I-" Fitz head falls again letting his emotions take over again. Liv lifts his head again and looks him in the eye.

"We all do terrible things but you cannot let this eat at your soul. If Verna had talked to the DA where we would all be now? You got rid of the poisonous snake in the garden. No one knows but us and it will stay that way. We are in this together."

The world became clear in that moment to Fitz, the love of his life, his Livvie was there and they were in this together. He sat up, caressed Liv's face and his lips came down on hers. It was instant and Liv responded the way she always did, she melted right into Fitz. Fitz moved Liv to sit on his lap and she didn't pull away, she kissed him back harder, deepening the kiss. Then she pulled back trying to get a handle on things but Fitz wouldn't let her.

"Livvie…." Fitz started kissing the side of her neck and Liv knew how this evening was going to end. Fitz stood up and carried Liv to the bed and started to undress her, stripping her down to her black panties and bra. He stares at her amazed that he had her here with him. He always believed that his Livvie was made especially for him. "God I've miss you Livvie."

He places kisses on her neck and continued to move down until he reached his favorite area located right between her thighs. He kissed her left thigh and moved over to her right thigh…then moved to the center kissed her deeply loving her taste. It wasn't enough, he ripped her panties off and stuck his tongue deep with her walls. Liv moaned louder and gripped his curls holding his head in place. Fitz had no intention of moving from one of his favorite spots; his other was being buried deep inside of her. He moved to suck on her clit and replace his tongue with his finger.

"Fuck!"

"Come for me sweet baby."

Liv was sure she could be heard in the White House hallways but she didn't care, Fitz was always quite the lover and his mouth and fingers were magical. Fitz slipped in another finger and that sent her over the edge and she exploded all over his hand but he didn't stop moving his fingers or sucking her clit. With his other hand he removed his pants in record time and entered Liv.

Fitz didn't move, she was always so tight and needed to adjust. She pulled him down to kiss him and he began to move going deeper pushing her to her limits again making her moan louder. She gripped his hips as he grind into her; letting him know to go deeper and faster. He obliged and pumped faster harder until she dug her nails into him, that's when he pulled her nipple into his mouth and she lost it.

She came and he was right behind her releasing everything into her. His sweet baby was his and he refused to ever let her get away again. He collapsed on top of her and she held onto him tight never wanting this moment to end even though she knew she would have to leave soon. They fell asleep like that, embracing each other without a care in the world.

White House – 2AM

Liv jumped up waking Fitz. "Oh God, what time is it?"

"What? I don't know come back to bed.

"Fitz I have to leave, I don't have reason for being here this late and what if this gets out."

Realty came crashing down on Fitz and he did not want her name to be released by some nut so he got up and began to get dressed.

"What are you doing Fitz?"

"Don't think I'm not going to have someone take you home at this late hour, get dressed I'll be back with secret service to escort you home…unless you want me to take you?" His eyes had a little hope that she would say yes.

Liv smiled, shook her head and walked towards Fitz. "Mr. President, as much I want to take you up on that offer I'm going to have to decline. The secret service will do." She stood up on her tip toes and kissed him.

Fitz pulled himself away and left to get his best agent to take his Liv home, Tom and Daniel; Hal was not on duty tonight.

"I will call you when you get home." Fitz leaned in for his final kiss. "I love you."

This time Liv pulled away and turned to leave.

Olivia's House – 3:30AM

Before Liv close her door, her phone was ringing. "Pope."

"I just want to make sure your at home safe and sound."

"I'm here, safe. Now go to bed, you need your rest Mr. President."

"Good night Livvie."

Jake sat up and couldn't believe his ears. Olivia was talking to the POTUS at 3:30 in the morning. No wonder why he wanted to stop surveillance on Ms. Pope. When the President had all surveillance removed from his and Olivia's house, his "other" boss had it back up and running the same night. He knew this would be information he would want to know immediately and pulled his cell out.

" Sir, I have something you want to see."
