During the flight to the hospital. Olivia went on to tell Fitz everything that had happened and he got very angry with her.
A few minutes later, they landed, Abby got a cab and went home, while Fitz took Olivia to the hospital.
"Baby, I know I made a mistake," said Olivia, rubbing her belly.
Fitz was silent... they entered the hospital.
Olivia entered the consulting room to be seen... she was breathing heavily, anxious and worried about the baby.
"What happened?" the obstetrician asked her.
"I... got into a fight and I fell to the floor. but I tried to protect my belly. I don't want to lose my baby" Olivia was very nervous.
"We're going to do the ultrasound to listen to your baby's heartbeat... and make sure the baby is okay... but you can't expose yourself to situations like this, it puts your life and the baby's life at risk." said the doctor.
"I know... I needed to help a friend and I didn't think of all the risks at the time. I made a mistake" Olivia said looking at Fitz who was silent... as they talked.
"I just want everything to be okay with Olivia and our baby," said Fitz, speaking for the first time.
The doctor asked Olivia to change her clothes, she changed her clothes, lay down on the bed, leaving her belly exposed, and felt the doctor running the gel over her belly... Olivia's heart was racing, all she could think about was all the confusion that had happened in the last few hours. the doctor placed the device on her belly and began to slide it around... meanwhile Olivia and Fitz looked at the screen at the same time, searching for some small image of their baby. a few weeks ago they had been arguing about whether or not to have a baby together and now they were both only concerned about whether the baby was well and healthy in her belly.
All they wanted to hear together was the baby's heartbeat... Olivia motioned to Fitz with her hands, asking him to hold her hands, he's angry with her, but he didn't stop holding her hands at that moment... he held her hands...
They saw their little baby, on that screen, during the ultrasound for the first time, still so small... immediately they smiled together. and they could hear the baby's heartbeat... Olivia breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're lucky, a fall can cause a miscarriage... so you need to rest for the next few days. but the baby is still very small, it's developing well. soon we'll be able to see if it's going to be a girl or a boy" said the doctor to Olivia.
"So... when I fell... it didn't hurt my baby?"
"The heartbeat is normal, but I need to do some tests on you. Since you fell, I'm going to ask you to sleep in the hospital today. to be under observation... all right?"
"Yes... all right," she said.
The doctor left and left the two of them alone. Olivia knows that Fitz is angry with her...
"Baby, I know..." Olivia started to speak and he interrupted her.
"Do you realize the risk you took? Olivia, you put your life and our baby's life at risk. He could have raped you or killed you... what did you think you were doing?" Fitz sat down in a chair next to the bed.
"I didn't want to involve you in this, I didn't want you to go after him..."
"I put a security guard to protect you, his job is to protect you and then you lie to him and put your life at risk?" Fitz is wearing an expression she knows when he's very disappointed in her.
"I know you, if you knew that Jake was setting a trap to try and get me back, in that sick way of his... you'd go after him..." she said.
"If I'd been around when he tried to rape you again or when he pushed you to the ground... I'd have killed him with my bare hands."
"I know... I didn't want to involve you in that... I didn't want to see you and him fighting, he was a psychopath, he could shoot you... and I would never forgive myself if he did that"
"Nothing justifies what you did, Olivia," he got up from the chair and started walking around the hospital room.
"This wasn't about Abby, this was about me... he used her, raped her, kidnapped her... all to get me back. it's so sick and I couldn't let him kill her" she said with tears in her eyes.
"I know... I'm not saying you had to deny her help, but you could have told me all this and we would have done it together"
"I was wrong, I'm sorry? Come here... give me a kiss?" she whispered softly.
"I know you, Liv... you make a mistake and then you try to seduce me with your beauty. it's not going to work today, I'm really angry with you" he said heading for the bedroom door.
"Where are you going?" she asked.
"I need a walk," he said.
"Are you going to sleep with me here in the hospital?"
"Of course I'll sleep here with you, I won't leave you alone... but I haven't forgotten what you did. You didn't trust me..." Fitz said, opened the door to room and went out to walk around the hospital.
Fitz asked to speak to the doctor away from Olivia, he was really worried about her and the baby's health.
"I just want Olivia and the baby to be okay... is she still at risk?" he asked.
"There is always a risk of miscarriage, especially after a fall" she replied. he took a deep breath... and thanked the doctor for her care of Olivia. then he went for a walk outside the hospital.
Abby called Olivia...
"How are you? What about your baby? I feel so guilty... I was an idiot, I ruined our friendship and you put yourself at risk because of me" Abby cried.
"I'm fine now, I mean... I'm going to sleep in hospital tonight, for observation. because I might have a miscarriage... but right now my baby is fine" she said sadly.
"I'm sorry... I hope everything's okay with your baby"
"Thank you... are you alone?"
"Huck... he's here, he's cooking for me" she said.
"Huck? Huck... Jake's friend? Is he here in town?" Olivia asked confused.
"Yes... I met him, he was affectionate towards me, so we became friends. I can trust him?" she asked.
"I didn't know that you and he had become friends... yes, you can trust him, Huck is a good person, he tried to advise Jake several times, but he never listened." Olivia said and then hung up just as Fitz came back into the room.
"Are you feeling any pain?" he asked.
"Not now, I took some medicine and it stopped."
"That's good" he said with a serious expression, he wasn't smiling.
"Baby, come here... close to me" she asked, motioning with her hands for him to come close to her.
He walked over to the bed and sat down next to her... she held his hands. "I'm sorry... I know I made a mistake, I wanted to solve my problems alone, without involving you... I was stupid to go there, pregnant and alone" she admitted.
"Don't ever do that again, don't ever put yourself at risk like that..." he said, stroking her hands.
"Okay," she whispered.
"I know you're not the kind of woman to wait for a man to defend you, but... let me protect you? I want to take care of you" Fitz said, looking into her eyes.
"Yes," she said smiling.
"I love you so much and I don't want to lose you" he said, this time caressing her face.
"I love you too... a lot" she whispered back.
"Do you think there's any chance of me losing our baby? I'm afraid to make any moves right now..." she said, looking down at her belly.
"You need rest..."
"What if I lose our baby?" she asked worriedly.
"That won't happen, but if it does... we'll make another baby together. it'll be okay... I promise... okay? now you need to get some sleep" Olivia lay down on the bed, Fitz sat in the chair next to her and stroked her hair until she fell asleep.
