LIV'S POV
"Emmy stop kicking the chair please" Fitz whispered as we sat in the dining room for dinner on Sunday night with Cyrus and James in residency
"No"
Fitz and i both looked up in shock, she was hardly the trouble maker when it came to her father.
"Emmy" i tried "people are trying to eat their dinner, you can't kick the chair"
"Fine" she folded her arms "i'm not hungry" she slipped off of my lap and out of the dining room.
"Excuse me" i stood quickly and followed her to her bedroom. She was in her closet sitting on the floor holding her doll as she whispered to them.
" ?" I teased her "your presence is needed at dinner"
"I don't want to sit with daddy"
"How come?"
"Because he was kissing Amanda" she stared at me "she's gone and now there's a new secretary so that means he was kissing her right?"
I stared in shock at how smart the five year old really was. I had no clue what i was supposed to say
"Right" Fitz answered for me, he was right behind me now "can we talk Em?"
"Only if Libby stays too"
"She can stay" he lifted her up and carried her to the bed
"Why did you kiss Amanda if you're married to Libby?"
"Because i was hurt and mad after mommy left"
"So you wanted to hurt Libby?"
"Yes" he whispered
"But Libby takes care of us! Why are you so mean to her?"
"I know and i'm sorry Em, i'm sorry how i've been acting but i promise things will get better and we'll be a team again"
"Can Lib join the team too?" She peaked out from under my arm as i held her in my lap
"Of course"
She smiled and hugged him "i love you" he whispered
"I love you too daddy"
(Break)
I groaned when someone opened the blinds to my bedroom. Emmy had a late start and since my days didn't start until after she went to school so did i. I smiled as i watched her sleep beside me. She was sucking her thumb in her bright pink fairy pj's that were tight around the ankles. Her hair sprawled out against the other pillow.
"how long has she been sleeping with you?" Fitz asked. I sat up and looked over at the couch, he was still in his pajamas surprisingly. His curls ruffled from sleep
"Since that whole Amanda thing" i sighed "why are you not downstairs?"
"I thought i'd take her to school today, i know it's your thing but-"
"No of course you can, she'd love it"
He nodded "i'm going to take a shower"
"Okay" i waited until the water was running to wake her up
"Morning Libby"
"Morning Emmy" i smiled "you have to go get ready for school"
"Are you taking me today?"
"Daddy is"
Her eyes lit up "no way!"
"Yes, go get dressed! Ask Kate to do a ballerina bun okay? You start classes today"
"Okay Mommy!" She hopped off of the bed and my heart stopped. It wasn't the first time she had slipped but it never stopped amazing me that she could love so freely after her mother left
(Break)
Ma'am? We're here" i narrowed my eyes at Harrison.
"Since when do you start calling me ma'am?" I asked. The pentagon was a large building with high security. It always amazed me at the respect our titles brought.
"Let go of me" i took my arm back "Harrison, please"
"Your husband thinks our relationship is inappropriate"
I rolled my eyes "we need to get you inside "
"Fine"
I walked into the second floor to see it was closed by secret service
"Where is he?" I asked Tom
"He'll be right out ma'am"
"Of course" i paced for five minuets and stopped when he came out with a man behind him.
"Liv" he was dressed in a navy suit and his curls were combed perfectly. He was 10 years older than me and his age only made him more attractive. I squished my face.. Attractive? Who the hell was i
"Liv?" He leaned over and kissed me cheek for appearances
"We need to talk"
"Tom" i watched as the secret service pushed back a few yards,Tom pushed the unknown man further down the hallway
"What?"
JAKE'S POV
"Sir you need to move back" the agent said to me as the first lady requested a moment alone with her husband. She was gorgeous. Long legs that were shown off because her dress only reached her mid thigh. Her hair was straight and twisted at the top.
"Why did you tell Harrison not to call me Liv, that's my name!"
"Olivia-"
"Don't olivia me" she crossed her arms " Harrison is the only friend i hage in Washington please don't take him from me. I am not sleeping with him" she stepped closer to him "you had Amanda and i never said anything. Please, he was helping me"
"With what?" Fitz narrowed his eyes
"I know about Remington" my eyes widened as i recalled the mission that made Fitz leave the Navy.
"Liv" he shook his head "we will discuss this in the meeting room"
"Fine" she agreed
"There's someone you should meet"
Her face lit up as if she was in front of cameras. They walked towards me as she slipped her hand through his arm.
"Liv, meet Captain Jake Ballard, Jake this is my wife Olivia"
"Please call me Liv" she smiled and shook my hand
"If you'll excuse us, we'll come see you after?" Fitz asked
"Sure"
