"Is he okay? Can I see him?"

Running down the hospital hallway, Olivia's heels clicked fast to get to Kim and Huck at the end of it. Seeing the doctor walk away from them, she hoped someone would have more information than they did several hours ago.

"They're running a few more tests. But they haven't really said what they were looking for. Big Jerry's in with him now," Kim told her hugging her tight. "He's never like this; Javi is healthy. It's taking him forever to get over this flu."

"I know, the doctors will figure it out. He'll need another antibiotic or something. Trust me, Javi will be fine, Kim." Olivia held her hand as she looked at Huck pacing the floor in front of the window.

Turning away to look at her son, Kim sighed and rubbed Huck's back hoping for some comfort. "It's been six weeks though. He's not keeping anything down, he's got a constant fever, we're giving him a daily breathing treatment. He has no energy. How can we just figure out how to get him better?"

Watching through the window of the room, Big Jerry sat in the chair beside Javi's bed reading him a book. Javi's face was pale as he tried to sit up. Within a second, Jerry had the bucket in front of him as the boy threw up for the fifth time. Kim ran in to help, leaving them in the hall.

"Huck?" Liv took a few steps closer and put her hand on his shoulder.

"I don't know what to do, Liv. I got all his favorite food, but he still won't eat. All he wants to do is sleep. What if it's not the flu? What if it's something else?"

"Then we'll find out what it is, and we'll take care of him. Verna's on his medical team too now. She's going to have some ideas of what's wrong with him. Whatever is wrong with Javi, we will fix it. It's what I do, remember?"

"Yeah, you're the best at it," Huck gave her a small half smile and looked around. "Fitz isn't with you?"

Shaking her head, "no, he's got divorce court today. I had him drop me here first before he went."

"How's that going?"

"Still going on. I'm not sure what else Richards is asking for."

"As much as I despise Richards, Fitz should let you help. This divorce has been well over the six months mark. Why is he dragging it out? Anyone can see that she has the money to take care of herself."

"Fitz just doesn't want me involved so I'm staying out of it. I'm trying to anyway. James has called me a few times to get to him, but I hang up."

"Good, don't talk to him Liv. That man is toxic. What he did to you… he should be lucky I haven't killed him."

"Mellie let's get this over with. I've shown him all of the bank statements, all the property reports, and I've given you everything you asked for. Tell James this is over, and we can both move on," Fitz told her walking up to his seat at the table in the courtroom. He could tell from the look on her face that she wasn't going to let this end today. "What else are you wanting?"

Taking her seat, Mellie pulled out her paperwork for the day, ignoring his question. After a few seconds of reading over them, James was announced and to get started.

"Alright, I think we are just about to close this out. Anyone else have something to add? Fitz?" James asked.

"Nothing, just let it be done."

"Mellie?"

"Actually, yes," she said. Smiling when she heard Fitz groan. "I'm adding emotional distress to why I should be given more alimony."

"Are you serious!" Fitz shouted at her. "If anyone needs emotional distress compensation it's me! All of your drinking, the manipulation to get what you want. Why in hell?"

"Mr. Grant," James's tone deepened. "This is interesting, Mellie, tell me more about the emotional distress."

Putting her fingertips on the table, she put on her next act. "The only reason Fitz wants this divorce so much is because he is planning to marry Olivia." Hearing her name, James lifted his head to pay more attention.

"What are you talking about, Mellie?" Fitz yelled at her. "I'm not marrying Olivia!"

"He's been sleeping with her since she started working for him. Probably even before that and that's why he hired her. Olivia must have convinced him that they could be married if I wasn't in the picture. Or maybe Fitz just took advantage of her. It wouldn't be unlike his father."

James stopped her and eyed Fitz. "Is this true? Have you been sleeping with Liv before you started dating her when you told me about it?"

"Of course not! James, you know Olivia would never do something like that. We know she's not the homewrecker Mellie's making her out to be. Mellie is jealous of Olivia. Liv's everything that I have ever wanted in a girlfriend. But that doesn't mean I'm marrying her, or that we have been together long before we actually were. Come on, James."

James nodded his agreement before moving back to see Mellie. "I have to agree with him. Liv's not the type to sleep with married men. I can attest to that myself," he smirked. "And as for Big Jerry, he is a cheat but that doesn't mean that Fitz is. Can you prove your accusations?"

"Yes, I can. I have a witness who knows they were together."

"Bring them in, let's hear it."

"Oh, they aren't here now. But I can have him here on another date. I'd just need another date you have time on your schedule."

"Good, then let's put this for three weeks from today. I want the proof as well, Mellie. Not just a statement."

Dismissing the day, Fitz barged out of the courtroom disgusted with the session. Who would even think Livie and I were together before a few months ago? She's lying! Liv wouldn't even let me hug her until I moved in. Who the hell thinks we were sleeping together? After taking a walk around the block several times, Fitz called for Henry to pick him up and head to the hospital.

While Verna sat in a meeting with the doctors from the hospital to brainstorm, the other four stayed in the room with Javi. Liv had laid in bed with him to watch a movie as they waited for some kind of news. Slowly to not startle anyone, Fitz opened the door holding out a milkshake for him which he took. Asking if there was anything yet, they all shook their heads.

"Do you think it's an infection? We know the flu is out or he will be recovered by now. What about a virus? His vitals are good. He hasn't had a temperature for two days. But he still has trouble eating and keeping it down. What about his tiredness? He's been here a week and slept through all of it. Javier's awake for three hours at most." Verna shot off questions to the team attempting to come up with an answer. While listening to people answer, she reviewed his records for the last few weeks. Over the last six weeks, he'd spent at least three days a week in the emergency room. "What's his blood cells count?"

One of the doctors brought up his chart on the projector to show the graph counts from his blood draws. "His white blood count is sort of high, but it's expected when he's been sick for so long."

"But that's much higher than a sick kid. Go do another blood draw and retest it."

Verna gave the doctor her order and watched them walk out. Luckily, Javi was asleep when they came to do another.

After several hours of rerunning tests and comparing them to the lasts, the team finally came to an agreement. Verna took the lead and went back to the hospital room and opened the door. "Fitz, could you and Liv stay with him?" Kim, Huck, and Jerry stepped out to the hall with her, following her to a consult room. "We've gone through all his test results and found why he's been so sick," she started before they sat down. "Javi has leukemia. His white blood cells are attacking the red cells making him so ill. It's treatable, curable even. We need to get him into chemo immediately."

Gripping Huck's hand, Kim held back her crying as much as she could. "But he's only four. Wouldn't chemo make him sicker?"

"The typical reaction to chemo is vomiting but we need to do the chemo, Kim. He'll get sick and not feel like eating but when the cancer is gone, he'll be back to kicking soccer and begging for pizza again."

"What if chemo doesn't work?" Huck questioned.

"There are a few other options, but the first step is chemo. We'll start with that and see how far it takes him. I have the medical team working on setting up his chemo. We can get him started in a few hours."

"Hours?" Kim's voice raised. "You want to start him today? How do we know what he needs? This usually takes a few days to start, doesn't it?"

Jerry moved to the couch beside her and put his hand on her shoulder. "I think it's better if we get him on it sooner. Verna knows what she's doing. Javi's pretty much her grandson, she's only looking for his best interest."

"Technically, I shouldn't even be on his medical team, but we got the hospital chief to agree to it. No one has more investment in this than I do for him." A nurse came to knock on the door and handed Verna the treatment documents to get signed. "Sign off on these and we'll get him started."

While they went over the paperwork, Fitz and Olivia sat with Javier who started getting sick again. After a few more minutes, he fell back to sleep against her. Fitz held his phone in his hand and kept glancing between it and them in front of him.

"How did court go?" she asked, breaking the silence in the room.

"I'm still not divorced if that's what you're asking," Fitz snarled at her making her shift back a little in surprise. "I'm sorry, it's not on you. Mellie just makes my life very difficult."

"What's she done now?"

"Here might not be the best time or place to talk about it." Looking at her cuddling the boy, he gave her a light smile. "Do you think they found the reason he's been sick?"

"They've been gone for an hour and twelve minutes. I think they have a good idea on what's wrong."

"One hour and twelve minutes? Why are you so precise on numbers? I've never asked you that before. But every time you hand me something, you've got down how long it should take me."

"I do?"

"Do you remember the time you were mad at me for not signing a letter you wanted to send out? I took it home with me and left it on the desk in my home office." She nodded. "You do that all the time."

"I'm a mnemonist. I can remember dates, times, words, lists, data entries, and a few other things."

"That's an interesting ability."

"And a curse sometimes. And I do remember that day. July 27, I handed you the paper to sign at 3:23 and you put it in your briefcase. But the 28, I handed it to you again and it took you two minutes exactly to read it and sign it. It also took me three hours and twenty minutes to not be annoyed with you again."

Fitz smiled and laughed. "You're such a smartass."

"Yeah, but I'm pretty sure you love me anyway."

"That I do."

Huck reappeared into the room with Kim behind him wiping her eyes.

"Did they figure it out? What'd Verna say?"

"Javi has leukemia."
