Chapter 19 Party Time!

Thank god I was right! Once Monday past I was golden. Olivia thought as she parked her car outside the bar.

Fitz and I managed to behave ourselves. So it can be done. The phone calls probably help. Though I didn't get to talk to him a lot. Poor Jerry was sick most of the week but luckily he was well enough to go trick or treating last evening.

Olivia scanned the room till she spotted her friends.

It's ok though that we didn't get to talk a lot because I have a feeling tomorrow's party is going to be an eye-opener. I don't know why I have that feeling but I do. I think I'm just excited about him seeing my costume. I hope he has the reaction I'm looking for.

"Hey Liv!" Abby said. "We ordered your drink already."

"Thanks. I've been looking forward to this all day."

"Seeing us or the drink?" Harrison asked.

"Both, but more so the drink."

"Haha very funny. Anyways," he said dramatically, "Who's ready for my party?"

Abby raised her hand. "I'm so ready though Leo's backed out. And I was really looking forward to him having to wear a diaper on his head!"

"Well he's gonna miss out on a rockin' time. How about you Liv? You're still coming right?"

Olivia smiled. "Most definitely! I'm very excited!"

Harrison raised an eyebrow. "I have another 'or' question. Are you excited for the party itself or for that certain someone who's going to be there."

"I can't lie. Both. I think with everything that's been going on this is going to be a nice stress reliever."

Abby nodded. "I agree. In fact a stress reliever will do us all some good. Did you want me to pick you up?"

"Um sure if you don't mind. Are you going to be the DD?" Olivia asked with a laugh.

"I'll try," Abby laughed, "If I fail we'll call a cab."

"What's your costume this year Abby?" Harrison asked. "She was Pippi last year. She actually got her hair cut to make sure the ponytails would flip up right."

"My hair got tangled around that wire I used. It was a bitch to get out! But this year I'm going to be Glinda the Good Witch from the Wizard of Oz." She told him.

"Abby how are you going to get around in that big dress?" He asked.

Abby laughed. "Don't worry I found a cute non-slutty short skirt version."

"What about you Liv?" He asked.

"Not telling." She said simply.

"I don't even know what her costume is and I was with her at the shop." Abby told him.

"Well ok. I'm extra curious now."

"I-" Olivia was caught off by the ringing of her phone. When she saw who it was she looked uncomfortably at Harrison and Abby.

Guess I'll take it outside. But damn it's cold out there. I'll just say I can't talk right now.


Tomorrow's finally going to be the night. She's been stringing me along over this damn costume and it's driving me crazy!

I was worried I wasn't going to be able to go to the party but thankfully Jerry's feeling a lot better and can go to his sleep over.

I haven't gotten to talk to her much because I've been spending most of my nights in Jerry's room and at work it's nearly impossible to do so.

I was going to wait till tomorrow night to talk to her but maybe we can talk for a little now.

Fitz grabbed his cell phone off the nightstand and called Olivia.

"Hey Liv!"

"Hi, um, can't talk right now."

I hear a lot of voices in the background.

"Is there a pre-party bash going on that I don't know about?" He asked.

"No, I'm at the bar with Abby and Harrison."

"Oh that's right. I forgot about the all important Friday night meetings. The ones where I hope you're not talking about me."


"No, Harrison's here so we're not talking about you."

Had to tell a lie. He has no clue that Harrison knows what's going on...

After a short pause Olivia asked, "It's going to be late but do you want me to call you when I get home?"

"Leave now! Leave now!" Abby mouthed to her.

Olivia ignored her.

"No, it's fine. I'll see you tomorrow night."

The excitement is boiling up in my stomach.

"Alright. I really can't wait Fi-. I mean," Whoa I almost said his name! "I mean, Finland."

"What?"

"I don't know! I couldn't...you know..."

"You should've just stopped at Finn" He said with a laugh.

"I'm glad this is funny to you. I have to go."

"I just have one quick question."

Here we go again...

"What are you wearing?" He asked.

"I told you I'm not telling you my costume!"

"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about what are you wearing right now? Under those outer clothes?"

"Goodbye Finland!" She said and quickly ended the call.

Harrison looked at her closely. "What's up with that grin on your face?"

"What grin?" Olivia's hand immediately went to her mouth.

Harrison shook his head. "You got it bad."


Fitz stared at the phone with a smile.

She's been keeping a secret and I can't wait to find out what the secret is tomorrow. I'm going to try my best to stay out of trouble but I have a feeling this is going to be the best Halloween party Ever! I actually feel somewhat like I did before the homecoming dance. It's like I'm a teenager all over again!


Olivia was pacing back and forth in her living room.

Shit, I feel nervous now. It's the same as I felt at the homecoming dance and I remember what happened that night!

What if this isn't a really big thing? What if I look no different then any other day? She looked down at her outfit. Well, I can subtract that last thought. Maybe I was wrong to keep it a secret and make it into something when he might think it's ordinary. Oh well too late now.

She glanced at the clock. Abby should be here any minute. She said she'd call when she got here. Did I miss her call? Olivia grabbed her phone.

No.

"Oh my god!" She practically screamed when the phone went off in her hand. She quickly hit answer.

"I'll be right down." Olivia said before Abby could get out a single word.


Fitz was looking himself over in the bathroom mirror.

"Oh Fitz you look ridiculous!" He heard Mellie say from behind him. "Though this is one of your better costumes."

Fitz turned around and walked right by her.

"I'm joking. I did mean the part where I said this was one of the better ones. You've had some odd costumes in the past. And not Halloween odd but just plain odd."

"You got the number to the Jamison's house right? Make sure you pick up the phone if their number comes up. I know Jerry's been feeling a lot better, but I just want to make sure-"

"Yes Fitz," Mellie said cutting him off, "And I'll call you if anything happens."

"Alright. As always with Harrison's parties it's going to be a late night. You don't need to stay up." He told her.

"The last time I stayed up to wait for you was probably five or six years ago."

How true that is.

Fitz shook his head. "Well, Bye."

"Have fun." Mellie said sarcastically.


Olivia opened the door to Abby's car.

"Damn Liv! You look hot!" Abby told her.

"I don't look stupid?"

"You're really asking that question? I just said you look hot! Hell forget Leo, I'll switch sides right now."

"Oh shut up!" Olivia said with a roll of her eyes.

I hope Fitz thinks I look hot too!


"Wow Harrison has really gone all out. I mean on the outside alone it's crazy!" Olivia said as they got out of the car.

"I swear he manages to get crazier and crazier with it each year." Abby told her.

"I have to give him credit. It is awesome!" She said as she looked around at the graveyard scenery. "Reminds of something out of Michael Jackson's Thriller."

Abby nodded her head in agreement.

"Let's go inside!" Olivia said excitedly.

Abby nearly tripped when Olivia grabbed her. "Ok! Ok! You don't need to pull my arm out of its socket! I'm coming!"


"Willy Wonka Cyrus? Seriously?" Fitz asked.

"Hey, it's a fucking costume isn't it?"

"I love it Cyrus!" Harrison said. "You finally learned your lesson."

Cyrus rolled his. "If someone comes without a costume I want to be immediately notified! Got it?"

Harrison and Fitz nodded their heads till Cyrus seemed convinced and walked away.

"So are Abby and Olivia still coming?" Fitz asked Harrison.

The party's been going on for almost an hour. I feel like I'm starting to sweat from the anticipation of just seeing her regardless of what she's wearing.

"They better be. I think they're trying to be fashi-" Harrison suddenly stopped talking.

"What? What are they trying to be?" Fitz asked as if his life depended on it.

"They're here." Harrison said with wide eyes.

Fitz eagerly turned around.

Immediately his mouth dropped.

Holy hell! Is that really Olivia under that mask? It has to be because no one has lips like hers. Plump, tasty, soft. But damn look at the rest of her!

Fitz looked Olivia up and down several times. His mouth still wide open.

"Um, Fitz I think you better close your mouth." Harrison told him.

I'm in shock!

"Harr...Harris...Harrison I know who she is but I've never seen anyone look like that..."

Harrison fought not to laugh. "That's the Halle Berry version of Catwoman."

I don't remember who this Berry person is but DAMN Olivia looks so unbelievably sexy. I've never seen this sexually dressed side of her. There's something different. It's her and she's hot period but this is something I could never have imagined.

Fitz subconsciously licked his lips.

The rips in the pants...if I could rip them open a little more. I'm fighting. I have to keep things under control. I have to but from the mask to the heels it's overwhelming!

I need to take deep breaths.

No, what I need is to find somewhere to be alone with her!


Olivia felt like she was going to burst on the inside.

He looked absolutely stunned when he turned around! He's never seen me like this. I love it. I actually feel sexy now. I feel completely turned on by his reaction.

"There's Harrison!" Abby pointed out before lowering her voice. "He's standing next to you know who. Do you want to go over there? It certainly looks like you know who wants you to."

"Oh wow. I didn't even notice Harrison," Olivia said. "But, um, yeah let's go over there."


Oh god, she's coming over. I want her to, but I don't know if I can handle it.

Damn those hips! They're working more than usual!

If I could just get my hands on her.

"Hi Harrison. Hi Fitz."

She just had to say my name like that. It's almost as if it's the first time I've ever heard her say it.


Olivia smiled slowly and bit down on her lip as she looked Fitz up and down.

Who knew Dracula could look this damn good. I hope he takes off that cape at some point in the evening because the way those pants are fitting I know his ass looks good!

There has to be somewhere in this place where we can have at least a few minutes alone. Hell I saw some bushes outside. Right now I'm willing to work with that.

"Abby...Liv you two look ridiculously hot!" Harrison told them.

Olivia looked at Fitz and smiled when he nodded with his eyes wide.

"Thanks Harrison! And I must say you make a sexy looking Will Smith. That's the white outfit from the Wild Wild West music video right?" Abby asked.

"I would've never thought you'd guess who I was." He told her.

Abby shrugged. "Big fan."

"Yeah I'm in him from the music vid because that movie was horrible!" He looked over at Olivia and Fitz. "Um Abby you have to check out Cyrus's costume. It's great. Follow me."

"Oh yes! I'll follow you. Olivia if you want to leave before everything's over let me know." Abby said.

"Ok." Olivia responded without looking away from Fitz.


Fitz looked around before casually stepping closer to Olivia. He clasped his hands together.

Hold them tight. If I let my hands go they're going to go straight for those hips. Then reach around, pull her close, and then a whole lot of shit will happen.

What's she looking for? Fitz wondered as he watched Olivia scan the room.

"There's a corner over there where there aren't a lot of people. Come on." She said.

Fitz followed behind her.

Ah the exposed part of her back. Her ass moving in those pants with the swaying of the hips.

I'M GOING TO GO CRAZY!

"There! This is a little less crowded." She said with a shrug.

"Damn Liv. You...you look beyond words sexy. If we were alone you'd be in a lot of trouble."

"I think we both would be because you look pretty damn sexy yourself."


There's that grin that I love to hate.

Olivia had clasped her hands together in the same fashion as Fitz. When they both took noticed they laughed.

"I guess we're both having the same problem..." She said.

"Do you think anyone would notice if we stepped out back for a little?" He asked her.

Olivia tilted her head and look up at the ceiling in thought. If there's no one out there this could get out of control. It's safer to say in here but the way heat is radiating off of both of us I think we'll be in trouble no matter where we go!

"There's probably people out there too Fitz. And it's pretty cold." She told him.

"Probably. But there's no harm in checking it out. If there's a lot of people or it's too cold we'll have to think of something else." He said before raising his eyebrows in a questioning manner.

Olivia took a deep breath. "Ok."


"The sky's really beautiful tonight isn't it?" He heard her ask.

"Yeah."

"Fitz you're not even looking."

"I know. I'd rather look at you. Take your mask off."

When Olivia did Fitz smiled wide and said, "Perfect."

He looked around the yard before spotting a nice area for them. "Let's go check out the swing."

"Fitz. I want to spend this time with you but don't you think people will get suspicious if were sitting away from everyone else?"

"HEY EVERYONE!" Someone shouted outside. "Quinn came without a costume! Mummy time!"

Fitz and Olivia watched as everyone who was outside headed back in.

"Come on Liv. No one's going to be paying attention." Before she could respond Fitz took her hand and led her over to the swing.

I can't go any longer without touching her. We're mostly in the dark I'll just be careful.


Olivia watched as his hand slid slowly over and onto her thigh.

Oh shit. Why'd he have to do that?

I'm going to lose it right now! She thought as is hand slid slowly up and down her thigh. She felt him lean close to her before he started placing light kisses on her neck.

I can't take this! I can't!

Olivia grabbed his face with both hands and kissed him passionately. He immediately opened his mouth to her. A shiver went down her spine when their tongues touched.

It feels like it's been forever.


Suddenly they heard a noise and immediately pulled apart. Both breathing hard.

"Shit it's just a cat." Fitz said shaking his head.

We need to pick up where we left off. I don't think I can wait anymore.

He reached his hands out to pull her face back to his but she stopped him.

"Fitz we can't do this here."

You gotta be fucking kidding me!

"Liv I don't know how much more I can take..."

Why's she smiling? This is not good at all!

"Can it wait till we get to my place?" She asked him.

"Are you serious?" He asked incredulously.

"Very. I feel the same way you do Fitz." She told him while looking straight into his eyes. "I'll text Abby to let her know. Where's your car?"

Fitz pointed it out for her. "It's right over there."

"Ok. I'll wait a few minutes after you get in to come out and join you. Actually drive around to the corner over there and I'll meet you there. Just to be on the safe side."

We're going to her place. A place where we'll be completely alone for the first time! On a night where we'll have hours to spend with one another. I'm going to savor every second of my time with her tonight. Every...single...second!


Olivia spent a couple of minutes inside looking at poor Quinn standing in the middle of the living room wrapped in sheets with duck tape and a diaper on her head.

She'll never live this down.

Guess it's safe for me to leave now. I can't believe I suggested my place! Olivia thought as she tried to casually walk out of the house and cut across a few backyards.

Though I feel it's the right time. When are we going to have another opportunity to be alone again? I can't risk waiting any longer.

Olivia quickly got into Fitz's car.

He looked at her for a few seconds.

"Liv are you completely sure about this?"

"I couldn't be anymore sure than I am right now." She told him.

"Alright." Fitz said before he grasped Olivia's left hand in his right and held it tight as he hit the gas.
