FITZ'S POV
"Ready to go?" Liv came into the hotel's living room. We would be staying for the weekend. I looked up to see her standing in jeans and a cardigan, her hair was in a twisted bun out if her face
"Yep" i smiled "the car is waiting downstairs"
"You didn't have to order a car, or the hotel Fitz." She stopped and put on her flats "your family has done so much for me."
"You're our friend" i waved it off
"No Fitz, it really means a lot and the last thing i want to do is seem ungrateful so thank you" she smiled and hugged me.
(Break)
I watched as Liv lead me through the nursing home. We stopped at a desk and Liv smiled at the skinny brunette as she greeted Liv an almost happy birthday.
"Thanks Jess, this is my friend Fitz. Can we sign him in as well?"
"Of course" Jessica smiled and got me to sign into the log in book.
"So, how do you two know each other?"
"He's Teddy's brother" her eyebrows rose
"He's so well behaved though" she stared at me and i chuckled
"I see Teddy has been terrorizing the place"
"Our patients love him though" Jess smiled "you two are good to go, see you later"
"Thanks Jess" Liv smiled and started to walk down the hall. We went into an elevator and came out on another floor, showing our badge to the security guard at the door.
An older man approached her which i assumed was the doctor.
"He's doing good today, he's been talking about you a lot" he smiled "Maya as well" he offered a shaky smile as Liv nodded and thanked him. We walked into a large blue room that was held a bed and some dressers along with a couch and tv area. There was a man no older than my own dad sitting on the bed reading a book.
"Hi dad" Liv said gently. The man looked up and looked confused as Liv entered the room.
"It's me Libby" she reminded him
"Libby?" He started to smile "How's Jake? Did you go to prom yet?"
"Jake's fine, yes we went to prom" she grabbed a picture off of the desk which looked like her father and her in a gown.
"Right" he nodded "who's that?"
"Who's that?" He looked over towards me
"This is my friend Fitz"
"Nice to meet you Mr. Pope"
"Fitz? Does that stand for something?" He shook my hand
"Fitzgerald" i answered sitting down on the couch when they both moved over.
For a while he asked about school until he asked about my family and i saw Liv tense briefly.
"Where's mom Libby?"
"I don't know dad" Liv answered honestly
"What do you mean?"
"She left remember? It's just you and me now" she smiled
"Of course" he chuckled and i watched the nurse call him for lunch "you coming?"
"I think we'll just stay here"
"Okay" he waved and i watched Liv lay down on the opposite couch
"you okay?" I asked as she squeezed her eyes shut
"Just another headache" she sighed "You can walk around if you want, he won't be back for another hour" she offered
"I'll find you some tylenol"
"Thank you" she smiled.
I walked around for a bit before finding Jess and asking her for tylenol. I bought a water bottle and decided to head back to the room. For the rest of the afternoon her dad told me countless childhood stories of Liv even if he didn't know who he was talking to he kept smiling.
"This picture is my favourite" He smiled and handed me a frame. It was a younger version of himself sitting on the steps of a house with a much smaller Liv. She must have been 5 or 6 in red over alls, curly piglets and a big wide grin on her face as she snuggled into her dad.
"I can see why" i smiled and handed back the photo.
"Well, we should probably get going since it's almost dinner time but i'll be back tomorrow alright?" Liv offered
"Okay" Mr. Pope said and hugged her awkwardly and she hugged him.
(Break)
"I'm starving" Liv came into my room plopping herself down on the bed beside me.
"Do you want me to call down?-"
"Okay but i could seriously eat a horse right now. Just warning you"
"Order whatever you want, we can share?" She nodded and took the menu. I watched as she took the phone and put it on speaker dialling room service.
"Room number?"
"Penthouse" she answered
"Ahh, Mrs. Grant how can i help you-"
"Oh no.. I .. Never Mind" she mumbled. I chuckled and watched her order pizza, fries, steak, mash potatoes, pasta and chips along with some wings.
"Jesus Liv"
"Don't tell Teddy" she pleaded. Teddy was all about eating healthy and as far as i had seen so was Liv but i guess she cheated on her diet not that she needed to be on one.
"I won't" i promised. She nodded and crossed her legs
"Do you have a girlfriend?" She suddenly asked as i flipped through the channels on the TV. I looked over to see her watching me she smiled briefly before giving me a look as if it were to say she was waiting for my answer.
"No why?"
Her eyebrows rose "you're an attractive guy" i smirked "i mean you're not ugly so why don't you have a girlfriend?"
"I've had girlfriends before just no one really understands me" i shrugged
"Don't you get frustrated?"
"Frustrated?"
"Sexually" she stared at me. Teddy always warned me that Liv was blunt and she wasn't scared to say what she wanted to say.
"Uh i'm okay"
She laughed loudly at my answer and smiled "I see you still have to get used to me"
"What about you.. You aren't ugly yet you won't date"
"Because they wanted something on the side. Apparently i was too busy to have sex whenever he wanted" she sighed but didn't look hurt anymore.
"I'm sorry"
She waved it off "So, i'm not dating right now"
"You shouldn't let some dumb ass ruin it all for you"
She smirked "you don't swear"
"Liv"
"I won't, i'm okay with it now. I'm just not ready to date" she shrugged and i watched as she went to her room. I answered the door when room service came and wheeled the tray to the living room. Liv came back out in shorts and a t-shirt. Her hair in a messy bun and her make up off
"Yum!" She smiled sitting on the floor in front of the coffee table.
An hour later she was laying on the floor groaning beside me.
"Ate too much" she mumbled against the carpet.
"Let's go, you are falling asleep" she sat up slowly and lifted her arms
"You can't walk?"
"Fitz" she pouted. I laughed and lifted her up. She was light as a feather. She smiled as i set her down in the bed
"Night Liv"
"Night" she mumbled as i turned off her light
(Break)
I woke up to an empty hotel room. Liv was spending some time alone with her dad so i would meet her at the strip. I looked over to my clock and seen i had slept away the entire day.
"Hello?" I answered my phone
"FITZ!" Mellie answered the phone and i cursed myself for not checking the ID first.
"Uh, hi Mel. How did you get my number?"
"Kate, i wanted to see if you wanted to grab lunch"
"Oh well, i'm not in California at the moment. I'm, well i'm in Washington with Liv"
I could hear her clenching her jaw and winced "I guess i'll see you at her party on friday"
"You're going?!" I asked surprised
"Yeah, Teddy invited me"
"Oh" i scrunched my eyebrows "I have to go i'll see you then"
"Bye Fitz"
