FITZ'S POV

"Sir, Mr. Pope is here" Quinn whispered as she came into the Oval probably because i kept on yelling at everyone. Emmy now understood what was going on and i had to make a formal statement in a few minuets

"Send him in, thank you"

I watched as her father came in with a sour look on his face, he was annoyed not proud or smug.

"I don't have her"

"You don't have her"

"As much as i wish i did i don't."

"How do you not have her?"

"She made it clear what she would do if i ever came near her again"

"Jesus" i had no clue who had her and my mind was turning into mush. I hadn't even slept in our room since the night of our fight

FLASHBACK

"Liv, you know i am working!" I pleaded with her as she got upset that i was working late again. She was wearing my navy t-shirt and a pair of my boxers. Her hair was curly in ringlets in a messy bun.

"But why can't you just come home earlier like before?"

"Before what?"

"Before i was pregnant. Am i too fat for you now? I mean i know i've been eating more but-"

"Livvie, it's not you or your body"

"Then what?"

She followed me into the bathroom and watched me get changed into my pj's.

"We just.. I just nothing" i didn't want to explain to her that i wanted to be a better president after the stories about me and , i wanted to get more done. " leave it alone Olivia"

"Are you screwing some bitch on the side then?!" She folded her arms "it's not like you haven't done that before"

I closed my eyes and realized it was her pregnancy brain. It was her insecurities, i wasn't going to fight with her. I glared at her and moved towards my old bedroom slamming the door on the way out.

LIV'S POV

"You need to tell me why i'm here" i ripped my face away from her hand as she touched my bruise. She had aged well, hardly any wrinkles. A few grey hairs.

"I saved you from your father"

I huffed loudly "where were you when i was a teenager? Or when you left and had Anna?"

"You can forgive Anna but you can't forgive me?"

"Anna didn't leave me with an abusive man! He hit you too and you just left me, for years!"

"I saved you Lib"

"No!" I stood "Fitz saved me! And our daughter"

"She's not your daughter and you married a white man i see"

"She is mine, legally"

"You adopted her?"

"Yes"

"You need to get some sleep, it can't be good for the baby"

"Can i call her? Please! She's been through a lot. She's very attached to me "

"I have to block the call, maybe tomorrow"

She didn't come back for two days. When she did it was to stop the man from hitting me.

"I need to see a doctor, the baby-"

"A doctor will come here" she agreed handing me a phone "it's blocked, five minuets. No talking to him. Just her got it?"

"Yes" she held the phone towards my mouth as i told her Kate's cell phone number.

"Hello?"

"Kate! it's Liv!"

"Olivia! Are you alright?! The president is worried sick! It's bad here!"

"Kate, can i speak to Emmy. I'm sorry i'm just on a tight call"

"Okay"

"MOMMY?!" Emmy's voice made me start to cry

"Hi baby"

"Mommy where are you?! I miss you! Daddy misses you so much!"

"Tell him i miss him too okay?!"

"Kay mommy, when are you coming home?"

"Soon baby"

"Mommy wait here!" There's muffling and then Fitz's voice comes onto the line

"Livvie?"

"Fitz-" she snaps the phone shut and walks away leaving me with a tv on.

I'm watching today's press conference. Fitz has bags under his eyes and his eyes are dark, he's been drinking.

"As you are all aware my wife had gone missing, we are looking into every possible lead but .. We had hoped to tell the american people differently that we are expecting and for that reason and the safety of our family we wish that she comes back safe. We love you Livvie, stay strong"

I square my shoulders as my mother comes back in with an older woman that has a machine dragging behind her.

"Lift up your shirt Lib" my mother says "time for an ultrasound"

I nod and lift it up after a few minuets the heart beat fills the room.

"Your baby boy is just fine"

"It's a boy?" I whisper

"You didn't know" my mother states

I pull down my shirt and go back to not speaking to her.

"Tell me about Fitz" she said as she dried my body. I had been allowed one shower a day.. I had taken 15 showers since i'd been here.

"He's the president"

"I mean the man behind the cameras, your husband. Does he hurt you?"

"Fitz would never hurt me, he's never laid a finger on me"

"And you love him?"

"I'm carrying his baby"

"That doesn't mean you love him"

"I do.. Love him.. And i love Emmy"

"And your in laws?"

"They are great" i smiled thinking of a Big Gerry hug and Caroline's southern accent

"You can call them tonight.. Just your daughter"

I nodded. I hadn't been out in the sunlight in weeks, i was starting to loose it. I was holding on just until they found me and then i knew i would have a bad day.

"Em?" I listened as she sniffled "mommy please come home!"

"I am soon baby"

"Okay"

"Can you play tea with daddy for me? Make sure he knows all of the rules okay? I taught you the rules right?"

"Yes momma"

"Okay, get some sleep baby"

"Okay mommy, i love you"

"I love you too pumpkin"

She hung up the phone and i prayed to god Emmy knew what i was talking about
