AN: It's crazy that I have to say this, but this is not real life people, this is FICTION. Olivia and Fitz are not real people and I do not have control over their lives! THEY'RE FAKE! lol. I don't understand why people would get all crazy upset over a story! Yall are sick! I've blocked people peacefully before, but some of yall are seriously getting out of hand. I am not and do not force you guys to read my stories. If you do not like what you are reading, please, exit out of the page. The genre is Romance AND Drama, which means there will be BOTH! No need for the negativity. I do not get paid to do this! I just like to share what creativity I have with the world! HMPH
Now, back to business. Yes, it was only an oral exchange between Fitz and Amanda. No intimacy, no nothing. Just a release, a stress reliever if you will. I know, it's definitely hard to see Olivia and Fitz being endgame, but bear with me! I'd never steer you guys wrong lol. And just to clear up some confusion, the flashbacks are continuations of one event. When Fitz spoke to Olivia, he told her the whole story at once. I'm just letting you know what happened during that one event at different times while the story progresses. I hope that makes sense. Anywho, my new story "Oliver & Company" was posted earlier today, under the M rating (you might have to adjust your filters). Again, thanks to you all for your reviews, comments, and suggestions (especially all the nice AND respectful ones). Enjoy (:
"Liv, don't cry hun, it's all going to to be okay", Quinn tried consoling her friend.
"Like hell! He let some crazy psycho go down on him! WHILE she was in a coma! It's not going to be okay Olivia, he doesn't deserve you".
"Abby, come on now. They've been through so much. They've done so much together. He built her a house, they're engaged for God's sake! She'd be a fool to not think things through fully before making such a huge decision".
"She'd be a fool to stay! Olivia, you take that big ass ring, cash it in, and you take that money and go buy you some shit and get you a new man. You didn't take Braxton's shit and you surely won't take Fitz's!"
"This is different from Braxton, you know that Abby!"
"Oh really Quinn, how exactly was it different? Because Fitz didn't sleep with her?"
"No", Olivia said quietly, the both of them turning to look at her.
"It's nothing like Braxton. I was getting sick of him. I was looking for a reason for him to mess up. I was starting to hate him. I felt like I was chained to him. This is different. I love Fitz. I wanna be with Fitz. I fall deeper and deeper in love with him everyday. I never expected something like this from him."
"Oh Liv...", Abby reached out for her hand, "I know you love him, but if he loves you like he claims he does, he wouldn't have done this. And even if he did do it, he wouldn't have hidden it from you.."
"Olivia, just think this through. Please, do it for yourself. See what else he has to say. Did he give you a reason?"
"No, I didn't let him. I wouldn't let him. I wanted to kill him in that room. I had to leave while I had the chance".
"Well, maybe you should just try and hear him out.."
"Maybe, but no reason would still be good enough. No reason would ever make it okay Liv", Abby clearly standing her ground on Olivia leaving Fitz.
"I don't know. I don't know what to do. I just...can we just focus on something else right now?"
"Sure Liv, this is all a lot to take in. Let's get your mind on something else..."
"Yeah, like the fact that I haven't been laid in forever!"
"Abby, I swear all you think about is dick", Olivia laughed out, happy to have her girls with her to help her get through the situation.
Flashback
He couldn't believe that he allowed that to happen last night. What the fuck was he thinking? He had Olivia, he had no interest in Amanda. She caught him in a moment of weakness and took advantage and he was no better for initiating to moment to begin with. He needed to talk to her and talk to her soon. And Olivia, what was he going to do about Olivia? Should he tell her whenever she woke up, if ever she woke up? He turned the corner and walked into Olivia's room and saw Amanda administering her daily tests.
"Hey, Amanda, just the person I wanted to talk to", he said as he walked closer to her, hoping to rid the awkwardness that had surely formed from last night.
"Hi Fitz. Just finishing up some tests here. You need something?", she turned to him, smiling from ear to ear. "Maybe he wants to apologize for last night", she thought to herself.
"Yeah, I was hoping that we could... umm... talk for a minute? When you're done? If that's okay with you?"
"I don't see why not. I'll be done here in a few minutes and then we can meet in one of the break rooms so we could talk?", she asked him, putting heavy emphasis on the word talk. "That's right Mandy, he's coming back for more. He couldn't resist"
"Sure, that's fine. I'll just grab some coffee from the cafe downstairs and I'll meet you there", he said to her before walking out of the room.
"So, that's who was with you in the videos all over the internet? That's Olivia? Your girlfriend?"
"Fiancee"
"Fiancee? Since when?"
"Since last night".
"Shit, what a way to propose.."
"Mel..."
"Kidding, sorry. But Fitz, she's beautiful."
"Eyes off, we know what happened the last time", he joked with her, the both of them laughing. He had to admit to himself, even though Mellie had betrayed him, he missed her. It had been nearly a year and he had long forgiven her for what she had done. He was kind of grateful his parents contacted her. Maybe he could warm up to the idea of them possibly becoming friends again.
"All jokes aside Fitz, she's very pretty. If that's what she looks like after just waking up to find out her fiance was getting arrested, I couldn't imagine what she would look like when she put in an effort. You did good."
"Thanks Mel. But seriously, I don't know if she'll ever forgive me. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if she had burned my house down or some crazy shit."
"Well Fitz, I'm sorry to say that I'm not here to fix your relationship. I'm here to clear your name and we gotta work fast if you wanna make a clean getaway."
"So, what's my next move?"
"I say we get this questioning done so we can get you out of here tonight. Sounds good to you?"
"Sounds great to me"
"Hi Fitz!", she exclaimed, walking into the break room, finding him sitting at the table sipping his coffee. She turned to close the door behind her, twisting the lock.
"Hey", he placed his cup on the table, standing up as she walked towards him. "I really just wanted to-", before he could finish his sentence, he was cut off by her hungrily placing her lips onto his. He was stunned, moving his hands to her waist to push her away.
"Amanda, what are you doing?"
"I thought... I was just... I thought you wanted to finish last night...", she looked at him, confused as to why he was stopping her.
"Amanda, last night was a mistake..."
"What?"
"I... I had a bad day. I was missing Liv. It's really hard just sitting there not knowing the fate of the woman you love. I just... it was a moment of weakness. It was a huge mistake. I'm sorry for putting you in that position and if I lead you on, I really didn't mean to. I crossed the line; it was very unprofessional of me to go to that level with you. I should have stopped myself, I should have stopped you. I apologize for that. I apologize to you. And please, please don't have any hard feelings. I really would like for Liv to still be under your care. You're an exceptional nurse and you've helped us both a lot. I hope I didn't make it awkward for us".
"How dare he? I gave him the best that I had. I got on my knees for him! I practically punctured my throat and the little bastard claims that it was just a mistake?"
"Amanda, please?"
"But he's so cute. This is all that little bitch Olivia's fault. To have him sitting here, waiting for her. She has him so controlled he can't even leave her when she's practically dead to the world."
"I... I understand Fitz. It's okay, you don't have to apologize at all. I understand how you're feeling. No hard feelings at all. And of course, I wouldn't leave Olivia's side for anything."
"Play your cards right Mandy, maybe the bitch will never wake up and he'll come crawling back"
"Great!", he sighed loudly, his shoulders dropping after the weight had been lifted. He smiled at her, thankful that she understood that there was and never would be a connection between them. He made a mistake and she understood.
"Fitzgerald Grant, will you please explain your relationship with Amanda Tanner", asked one of the two officers sitting at the table across from Fitz and Mellie.
"Well, there isn't a relationship. We're not friends or anything, I guess you could just say we are acquaintances".
"And how exactly did you two become acquaintances?"
"Umm... A few months ago, on Labor Day actually, my fiancee Olivia and I had gotten into a car crash. A drunk driver ran the red light. I was driving and the other car was coming from the other direction. The other driver died. Olivia got most of the impact, we were both hospitalized and I was released the next day. Olivia was in a coma for four months. Amanda was my nurse when I was admitted into the hospital and because my parents appreciated all of her work, they had asked for her to be a nurse for Olivia".
"So, basically she was you and your girlfriend, excuse me, I meant fiancee's nurse at the hospital, at the time of and after your car accident?"
"Yes sir".
"I assume you are well aware of Ms. Tanner's claims that you tried to engage in sexual activity with her and when she didn't comply, you had her removed from Olivia's case. Is this true?"
"No sir"
"The hospital records show that Amanda was removed from Olivia's case, three days prior to her leaving the hospital. Can you explain why sir?"
"That day Amanda had taken Liv to get some testing done. She came back into the room, very upset, saying she wanted her gone. I asked her why, and she explained to me that her saying she wanted Amanda gone was reason enough. Apparently Amanda had heard some of the conversation and she told us that she would leave and she apologized to Liv, saying she didn't know what made Olivia so uncomfortable".
"So, it was Olivia that had requested for Amanda to be removed from her service?"
"Yes sir".
"So you're saying you didn't try to force her into relations?"
"No sir, I did not try to force her into relations".
"Well, she claims that not only did have relations before, but when she tried to end them, you got upset with her. Can you explain why you might think she would say such things if you did not do the things she claims you have done".
"One night. It was a really bad day. I just finished visiting Olivia and I was walking to my car in the garage. Amanda startled me and I accidentally spilled the cup of coffee she was carrying. I offered to help her get cleaned up and I walked her to her car. We were surprisingly parked next to each other. In a moment of weakness, I kissed her. Things got carried away and she performed oral sex on me. The next day, I spoke with her and told her it was all a mistake and she said she understood. That was it."
"So, she gave you oral sex. I'm assuming you finished. Might I ask where sir?"
"Ummm", he stuttered, feeling a bit of embarrassment of having such a personal conversation that was being recorded in front of a room full of strangers. "She... she swallowed sir".
"Oh, she swallowed?"
"Yes sir"
"And you're sure that was it? No fondling, foreplay, vaginal or anal sexual exchanges. Did you return the oral in her favor?"
"No sir. There was no foreplay. No fondling. I did not have sex with her. I did not perform oral on her. Sir, I sit here this day and I could not even tell you if Amanda is a man or woman. After the oral, she got up and wiped her mouth and we parted ways".
"She wiped her mouth?"
"Yes sir"
"With what? Her hands?"
He thought back to that moment, trying to remember what it was that she used to wipe her mouth with. "She used the shirt. The shirt I spilled the coffee on".
"That'll be all for questioning sir. I suggest you make yourself comfortable, tonight is going to be a long night", the other officer said to him, the both of them gathering their things before leaving the room.
"You said she used the shirt?", Mellie asked him, after the officers had left the room.
"Yeah, why is everyone so fascinated with the shirt?
"The same shirt that you helped her take off?"
"Yes, the same shirt. It was on the floor and she picked it up and wiped her mouth and I buckled my jeans and she got up and got into her car and I did the same"
"Well, this just got a whole lot more interesting. If it's the same shirt you helped her take off, then that means the shirt has both your fingerprints and your semen on it Fitz. That's her DNA evidence that she claims to have."
"Shit!", he said, when it all finally dawned on him. "She had this planned out all along! Didn't she?", he asked, the worry spreading on his face.
"It seems like it Fitz, and since she has evidence on you, then you need to get evidence on her."
"Well, where in the world am I supposed to get evidence from Mellie? I only interacted with her while we were in the hospital"
"Except when you were both in the parking garage. And you know what parking garages have, don't you?"
"Video cameras", the both of them saying at the same time.
