The next morning when Fitz woke he was laying in bed beside Olivia and their three girls were beside her. He checked his watch and it was almost 7am. He was actually happy he was up before everyone else, it gave him a chance to observe them. He unwrapped his arms from around Olivia and kissed the blade of her shoulder then sat up.
He looked at the girls. Lily was cuddling Isabelle and Daisy had her leg thrown over Olivia's hip. As he sat looking at them he remembered what the girls said about horses. He took his phone from the nightstand and began searching around on it as he did that he remembered he had the number of the caretaker of his family ranch and even though he didn't know what assets Olivia had sold or kept he decided to give it a try and call the caretaker even if it was barely 7am.
He got through after a few calls and had asked the caretaker to take care of something for him after having to explain the fact that he was alive and catch up after a few years. If he remembered correctly, it was only a little over a two-hour drive from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles and he figured after getting the horses ready they would make it there around noon. At this point, he needed to pull out all the stops to impress his girls, all four of them and nothing was too extreme.
He began reflecting about last night with Olivia and immediately he laughed at himself for thinking he could resist her for any period long enough to be meaningful. She was amazing, just everything about her was perfect. The more detail he remembered about the night, the more he could feel the blood rushing down to a certain part of his body. He quickly got up and walked briskly to the bathroom and closed the door behind him.
Fiz walked over to the bathroom vanity only to hear the door open behind him and see Olivia walk in.
"Hi," he said with a smile.
"Hi," Olivia returned.
She almost thought when she woke up he would be gone but it was just her paranoia.
Fitz thought she looked quite refreshed and cheerful considering how early it was in the morning. He decided to poke a little fun at her. He still hadn't fully turned around so she didn't see his erection.
"You look well-rested."
She blushed.
"I forgot how good sleep was after a giant orgasm."
Olivia walked a little closer and as she did that she saw Fitz shift his body a little as if he was hiding something.
She stepped even closer and watched him do it again.
"What are you hiding?"
"Nothing," he said quickly.
"Let me see," she said as she walked even closer, she was at the vanity now but his body was still turned from her. She was practically looking at his back now.
"There's nothing to see."
"Let me see," she said as she hugged on to him from behind trying to reach his front.
Fitz just kept turning and blocking her with his arms.
Olivia laughed and jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his shoulders to secure herself. When she looked down she erection in his pants.
"There it is, you liar," she mocked.
Fitz chuckled, "my pants are just sitting funny."
Olivia hopped off his back and laughed as she wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest.
"I missed waking up to you and your morning surprises."
"Really?" he said with a smirk then lifted her and grabbed her ass with both palms to secure her.
She could feel his penis pressing against her inner thigh.
"Oh Christ," she moaned softly.
Fitz backed her against the wall for support and then he slowly lifted her t-shirt up to her waist. It was really his gray t-shirt from his days in the navy but Olivia claimed it as her own now.
She kissed him hungrily as she reached one hand down and pulled his hard penis from his pajama pants. Fitz used his thumb to pull the crotch of her panties to the side and then ran his finger up and down her slit, massaging it slowly.
Olivia grabbed him tighter and closed her eyes and bit her lips.
"Oh my god that feels so good…" she whispered to him softly.
He moved from her lips and kissed down her chin and neck and then he slowly slipped his tip inside her wet opening and teasingly slipped it in and out.
Olivia closed her eyes and smiled.
"Mmm…"
Fitz smiled and kissed her and finally went a little further and closed his eyes in ecstasy when he felt her warm wetness around him.
"God."
He gripped her a little tighter as he stroked her slowly against the wall.
"Fitz," she moaned, "oh my god." As she said his name she realized how lucky she was to be able to utter it in that way, he was home.
"Right there…baby...right there."
He quickly pulled out and let her down then he leaned her over the bathroom vanity counter and entered her again. He squeezed her breasts and held her against his chest as he thrust. Her breasts were so tender and supple, they felt good under his fingers.
She threw her head back and surrendered to her orgasm with her eyes shut tight. Moments later when Fitz was close he willed himself to pull out and came on her ass.
He relief he felt when he came was euphoric and when he leaned up and stepped back it was just in time to watch him cum running in between the crack of her ass.
He felt like he could go again. He wanted to go again.
"Angel?"
Olivia leaned up and smiled.
"Hmm?"
"Would your vagina protest another round?"
Olivia chuckled.
"She would not, neither would I."
"What time do the girls usually wake?"
"They're usually up early so I'd see we have maybe another half hour."
Fitz nodded.
"That's all we need," he said with a chuckle.
"Well, I'm really rusty so it's going to take a lot of time to work me in."
Fitz stepped behind her and smacked her ass with an open palm and squeezed her flesh as he kissed her lips.
"You don't feel rusty, you feel wet and tight and just fucking right." He said as she slapped her ass again.
Olivia gasped air into her lungs sharply.
"Mm...Spank me again."
Fitz spanked her ass again and again until he slipped his rock hard cock in her again and began fucking her senselessly against the vanity again.
He grabbed her tits and turn her face to him and sucked her tongue as he took her from behind.
His strokes made her knees buckle which caused fits to lift her leg and stretch it into her the countertop. She leaned over the counter a little more for balance and when he got her balance she began thrust her ass back on him.
"Fuck!" Fitz groaned.
It felt so good he had to stop for a moment to readjust himself. He was gonna come immediately if she kept going.
When he started again Olivia thrust back again and continued.
Fitz smacked her ass again.
"Oh my god baby," she moaned.
"Fuck, Livie," he threw her head back and stopped thrusting. At this point, it was just Olivia thrusting her ass back on him. He watched her flesh jiggle every time her skin made contact with his. It was sweet pleasure.
When she began to spasm and her rhythm began to fall off he knew she was close so he joined back in, pulling her in to meet his pointed thrusts until moments later they both came.
Everything was just so in sync. He'd forgotten what it felt like to not have to try so hard, everything was just so perfectly aligned; the way he fit into her, the way she seemed to know what he needed and when and he knew the same. He forgot what it felt like to be with the love of his life.
Twenty minutes later they were out of the bathroom freshly showered and satisfied to begin the day.
They went in the closet to get dressed and when they were done Olivia walked over to her bed with Fitz behind her and climb beside the girls.
"Izzy?" She called. "Daisy, Lily? It's time to wake up."
Lily popped her head up and looked at Olivia then smiled.
"Hi beauty," Olivia said as she kissed Lily's forehead. "Bonjour."
"Bonjour mom," Lily responded.
Lily noticed Fitz at the edge of the bed and she seemed surprised that he was still there.
"M'aideras-tu à réveiller tes sœurs?" Olivia asked.
"Qui mom," Lily responded
Lily turned around and began waking her sister by shaking them and after a few moments, they were up.
"Bonjour girls!" Olivia said.
"Bonjour mama," they said together.
Fitz was surprised, pleasantly but then again not really, Olivia's was always the best at whatever she did, why would parenting be any different. She had three girls under 6 years seemingly fluent in french.
Olivia turned to Fitz.
"Dis bonjour papa," she said to the girls.
"Bonjour Papa," they all said together with smiles.
"Good morning girls."
Olivia stood, "okay girls, let's take showers and get our teeth brushed and hair combed then we can have breakfast."
Olivia turned to Fitz, "do you think maybe we should just go out to eat?"
"Yeah, I think that would be good."
"Girls do you want to eat at Laduree?"
"Oh my god, mom yes!" Lily screamed. "I really want macarons."
"Okay then come on, we have to go, I'll call Jean and make a reservation."
"What are macarons?" Fitz asked as he pretended not to know.
"Oh my god," Lily began as she jumped up and down excitedly, "it's like a cookie but it's so much better and...um...they are so many colors..pink which is my favorite and purple and blue and green and orange and red and white. Pink is the cotton candy and Rose flavored one. Rose is also my name but not the name everyone calls me, they call me Lily. Daisy likes the chocolate flavored one and Izzy like cookies and cream."
"Woah, I think I want one, it sounds delicious."
"Yeah, it is," Lily said excitedly.
The girls raced to their bathroom.
Olivia and Fitz followed behind them.
Olivia helped them with everything, brushing their teeth, bathing them and combing their hair and dressing them. She was oblivious to the fact that Fitz wanted to help only he had no idea where he fit in.
After an hour the girls were all dressed and ready. Olivia left them in the playroom while she went back to her bedroom to change her clothes and fix her hair. Fitz changed his clothes as well. Olivia called the manager of the restaurant to let him know they were stopping by for breakfast. When she finished fixing her hair and face she went back to get their girls and they headed downstairs. She remembered that she needed to get someone to clean up all the remains from the party and texted Erin to ask her who she had hired to clean up all the decor and setting and food that was leftover from the party. Erin told her she'd call a cleaning company. Before she called Erin she saw quite a few emails and missed calls on her phone, some from her lawyer and made a mental note to call her back on the drive to the restaurant.
"Mom, which car are we driving?" Lily asked as she fixed her scarf around her jacket.
"I'm not sure sweetie, whichever one the Jon has ready."
"I can drive," Fitz said.
"Are you sure, is your license still valid, I mean it's been a while?"
"Yeah, it doesn't expire for another couple of years so I'm good."
"Alright great," Olivia said with a smile. "Let's get out of here."
They headed to the first car they saw which was a Mercedes Benz sedan with 3 car seats in the back. Lily strapped herself in her car seat and both Isabelle and Daisy hopped in their seats and waited for Olivia to strap them in. Olivia did that she got in the front seat and then Fitz got in beside her.
He had quite a few things to take care of and quite a few calls and messages on his phone he was ignoring as well.
Once Fitz pulled out of the gate and was headed down the hill Olivia punched the restaurant's address in the GPS and called her lawyer back. It was barely 9am, she figured it must be important for her lawyer to have called her so early the day after Christmas.
"Debbie, what's going on, I'm just returning your call?" Olivia said.
She put the phone on speaker so she could check her emails and messages as they spoke.
"There's a video online of you and Fitz Olivia what's going on? I'm pretty confused he's supposed to be dead but he looked very much alive."
"What do you mean online?" Olivia asked.
"Someone must have snuck and taken a video at the party, everyone is talking about it. The video of his beheading was pretty public."
Olivia took her lawyer off the speaker and put the phone to her ear, she didn't want the girls hearing anything about a beheading.
"I was waiting a few days to tell everyone but I think the cat's out of the bag now. Can you find out who took that video, if it's one of my employees I want them fired because that was a private moment."
"Olivia, you know now that we have to restructure your entire estate, that's billions of dollars that we have to move around and he has to void his death certificate, his life insurance money needs to be given back, there's a lot we have to do."
"I'm familiar with the law Debbie, of course I know everything needs to be restructured and the life insurance payout can be given back no problem, in fact, you should probably reach out to them immediately and let them know I'll write a check, I haven't touched the money and we didn't need it, I believe the only reason his will was structured in that way was that his estate managers wanted to avoid the estate tax."
"I'm not in the office but I can do it from home."
"Yeah, I would cc Rena on this, she can transfer the... I think the payout was around 50 million, I'm not sure but she can make the funds available just figure it out and email what you need. When you get back in the office we can meet and figure this thing out."
"Okay, I'll take care of what I need to my end, how about we meet on January 2nd, I'll email your assistant with the specifics."
"Perfect."
Olivia hung up and turned to Fitz.
"So someone recorded everything yesterday and put it online, that's probably why I have so many messages on my phone."
"I heard," he said with a chuckle. "You don't have to stress yourself about the estate, in fact, it might be better if it stays the way it is right now."
As Olivia heard the words she came to a realization.
"Fitz, I just realized that you've probably not had any money these past few years."
"Actually not really, I make about $200,000 a year as a general in the navy on the books plus I have another $1,000,000 allowance I'm given discreetly per year just for what I do."
"Oh."
"Yeah so I have about 12 million in an account, some money they told me was from before and then another 6 million I have from the past few years. I didn't really have anything to spend my salary on so it's all there."
"Okay, well um.. I think the first thing we need to do it just void your death certificate, everything else I think will come after."
Fitz nodded.
"So, has a lot changed?" he asked.
"Not really at home as you can see but everything else had changed a lot. I changed your company, I kind of restructured it and changed out a lot of the top people."
He chuckled.
"Don't tell me Lucky is CEO now or something."
"No," Olivia said with a smile, "he actually thought I was gonna appoint him CEO just because he's a friend, he had no experience running anything, he's in charge of the philanthropic arm of the company. It's more pay and he was happy with that."
Fitz smiled.
"What else has changed?"
"I hired a lot more women at your company, some really talented, really brilliant people. It still makes weapons which I hate but I just felt like that was what was three generations of your family wanted it to do so I couldn't change that. The most I could do was make it a more globally and environmentally conscious company and we also started dabbling in medical technology and clean energy. It's made us a lot of money."
"You should have been running it all along."
Olivia chuckled.
"No, it's not mine to run."
"Yeah, it is."
"Not anymore."
"What about your company?"
"We're in the hundreds of millions in profits now, I have shops all over the world, it's been great actually better than I ever thought."
"You're just a money-making machine aren't you."
Olivia laughed.
"I'm actually not just at my company, I'm the creative director for the house of Dior now, I've been stretching myself pretty thin."
"House Dior, Like Christian Dior, that's great."
"I know," she said excitedly, "I'm still so excited about it and it's been years."
"My goal is to buy LVMH but it's worth like 100 billion and right now we're only at like 22 so we have a long way to go, well in liquid assets anyways."
"What do you mean 22, when I left it was 15 in liquid assets, my family worked very hard for like 50 years to get it to 15, you almost doubled it in 5 years."
Olivia shrugged but she was actually really flattered he seemed so impressed with everything she'd done, she worried he might think she changed too much but in usual Fitz fashion, he only had praise for her.
"I'm glad you're okay with everything, I was worried you would have felt like I changed too much."
"I was gone Liv if you'd sold the company or anything else you decided at the time it would have been justified because I was gone."
"I would never sell it, it's what you left for them."
"-excuse me mom are we almost there?" Lily asked.
Olivia looked at the GPS and saw that they were minutes away.
"Yeah sweetie, minutes away, almost there."
Lily nodded and went back to her conversation with her sisters.
When Fitz arrived at the restaurant, he parked across the street.
The girls unlocked themselves and Olivia took them out on the side of the car facing the curb. She could see the car of guards down the block, looking to park. They mostly stayed back, with no major incidents in years, they'd been close enough to act but kept a distance to avoid drawing attention.
Olivia held Isabelle and Daisy's hand.
"Lily hold your dad's hand, we have to cross the street."
"But mom I want to hold your hand," Lily complained.
"We have to be safe crossing the street and since I have your sisters' hand, you have to hold your dad's hand okay."
"Okay," Lily said as she held onto to Fitz's waiting hand.
Olivia smiled shyly at Fitz and Fitz nodded to let her know it was okay.
They crossed the street when it was clear to do so and then walked into the Parisian themed restaurant.
They were greeted by Jean at the entrance.
"Bonjour Olivia, Bonjour belles filles, Lily, Daisy et Isabelle."
"Bonjour Jean," they all said together.
Jean greeted Olivia with a kiss on the cheek.
"We have an extra guest today? I'm Jean," the manager said as he stretched his hand.
Fitz took his hand and returned the shake.
"I'm Fitz."
"Nice to meet you." He turned Olivia and the girls, "I have a great spot for you today and we have a new rose tea that you must try, très bon, très délicieux."
Olivia nodded and followed him.
They were seated at the table with a pastries tower filled with finger sandwiches, pastries, and light hors-d'oeuvres along with piping hot tea steaming from a porcelain teapot with empty cup faced down with settings. There was another teapot with no steam as well
"Have a seat, I'll get Anais here in a few minutes to take your order."
They all sat down. Olivia poured tea for the girls from the teapot with warm tea and then poured tea from the hot pot for her and Fitz. She had the girls then pick their sandwiches and pastries with the tongs from the table. They usually had macarons as a treat after eating.
They all sat eating for a moment before their waitress came and took their orders. When she left Olivia decided to ask Fitz the question that had been bugging her.
"So I wanted to ask you, considering the fact that you were alive and were still being paid a salary, the government knew you were alive?"
Fitz nodded.
"Does that make you angry?" he asked.
"You have no idea," she said with a humorless chuckle, "I did everything humanly possible to get an answer from them and nothing."
"Even if I actually was gone, they wouldn't have told you, even if they could give you my body, they wouldn't have."
"Bastards," Olivia said with a chuckle.
"Oohhh mommy said a bad word," Lily said, laughing.
"Oooo mommy is naughty," Isabelle and Daisy said together.
"I'm sorry, mommy shouldn't have said that, right dad?"Olivia said.
"Right, bad word mommy," Fitz responded with a smile.
The waitress came with their food shortly after and they breakfast and had macarons after.
They were back home at almost 12pm. When Olivia went into the back of the house into the patio cover it was being cleaned by a cleaning crew. She took the girls back to their bedroom to change their clothes but before she could change them Fitz stopped her.
"It is okay if they stay dressed a little longer?"
"Yeah, but why?" Olivia asked.
He stepped closer to her and spoke in her ear, "I have a surprise for them and it should be getting here soon."
Olivia took his arm and walked him outside.
"It is a horse, I heard them telling you how much they loved horses yesterday and I just knew you were gonna do this."
Fitz chuckled.
"I have too, I really want them to like me, I have a lot of work to do to get there."
"Okay and Fitz you don't need to ask my permission to keep them dressed okay, you're their dad, you can just do things."
Fitz nodded even though he didn't know how realistic it was to expect him to just jump right in. the girls still weren't used to him or that comfortable with him yet.
Olivia walked back into the room.
"Okay girls why don't you play for a little bit, we'll be right back."
"I wanted to watch them," he whispered to her.
"Sure, I have something to take care of so I'll check on you guys later."
She kissed his lips and headed out.
"Eww," Both Isabelle and Daisy said.
Lily looked away shyly.
"Mommy has a boyfriend?" Dasiy asked.
"No Daisy, that's our dad."
"So mommy doesn't have a boyfriend?" Isabelle asked.
Now Lily was confused.
"Ummm...I don't know."
Fitz smiled and walked a little closer to them. They were pulling out art supplies to draw and color.
"Can I color with you guys?"
Lily was the first to look up.
"Um...sure."
She pulled out a white cardstock paper from a stack and then handed it to him with a few crayons. Fitz took the paper.
"Thank you," Fitz said with a smile.
He sat beside them at the art table on the tiny chair that he was sure he might break with his weight and began to color. About three pieces of art and 15 minutes later he got a text from the caretaker telling him that he was downstairs. Simultaneously Olivia walked in.
"Lucky just called me and he was freaking out on me because I didn't tell him you were back."
Fitz chuckled.
"This is why I didn't want anyone to know," he said.
Fitz stood.
"So um girls," he said to the girls, "I kind of have something I'd like to show you."
"What is that?" Isabelle asked.
"It's a surprise and I really hope you like it but it's downstairs so you have to come with me to see it?"
"I like surprises," Lily said as she jumped up excitedly.
"Me too," Isabelle said.
"Me too," Daisy said.
"Okay, follow me," Fitz said.
Lily looked at Olivia, "mom, can we go?'
"Okay course, girls go,"
Lily nodded and ran over to Fitz with Daisy and Isabelle behind her.
"Mommy said it's okay."
"Okay great," he said.
He walked over to Olivia quickly and leaned over in her ear, "I didn't really oversell it right like I didn't hype it up too much."
Olivia rolled her eyes.
"You are so cute, go."
"You're no help," Fitz said with a chuckle as he walked out of the room with the girls walking beside him.
As they were walking down the stairs he tried to help them down.
"We've got it," Daisy said for all of them.
"Yeah, we know how to walk down the stairs, since I was baby," Lily said.
Fitz smiled and nodded.
"You're right, you're big girls."
When they reached the bottom of the stairs and Fitz opened the front doors and all four of them walked outside.
"OH MY GOD," Lily screamed.
"IT'S A PONY!" Daisy yelled.
Isabelle just screamed.
Fitz smiled widely.
"You all told me how much you like horses so I thought it would be nice to teach you how to ride one."
"You know how to ride horses?" Lily asked.
"Yeah, since I was a little boy."
"Oh my god this is so cool, can we touch them," Lily said jumping up and down, "please, can we, please?"
"Yeah, they're your horses, go ahead."
"My horse?" Isabelle asked.
"Yep, go on, it's your horse."
There were three horses, a jet black gypsy horse, a brown and white gypsy horse, and a silver-white Friesian-Arabian mix horse.
All three girls ran over to the horses and reached up to pet their noses. Fitz was close by them and the caretaker was also closely monitoring them.
"Can I have the white one, it's so pretty," Lily said.
"But I want the white one?" Daisy said.
"I want that one," Isabelle pointed to the black jet black gypsy horse.
"Daisy please, I really like that one," Lily begged.
"No, but I want it," Daisy said.
"Daisy please," Lily said.
"No, please I really want it, Lily."
Fitz was fascinated.
Lily sighed sadly, almost ready to cry.
"Okay, I'll take the other one okay Daisy, you can have it," Lily said defeatedly.
"Can I have a hug?" Daisy asked.
Lily nodded and hugged her and then that was the end of it.
When Olivia came down, The girls were on the horses and Fitz walked Daisy and Isabelle on their horses and the caretaker walked Lily on her horse.
She smiled at the sight and stood by the entrance of the house watching them happily. The shock was beginning to wear off and things for the first time felt normal, like the way they should've been for the past 4 and a half years.
As she stood observing Fitz bonding with the girls her phone rang. It was Lucky and she really didn't want to answer. After debating for a moment while it rang, she answered.
"Olivia, I'm almost there, let the guards know to let me in."
"Okay," she said defeatedly.
"So much for family time," she thought to herself.
She hung up and took a breath. After a few more minutes, Lucky's pulled in through the gates and came down the driveway. He parked by the horse trailer that the horses were carried in and hopped out of the car with his son, Alex, short for Alexandre.
First stopped and in response, the horses stopped.
Lucky made a beeline to him and hugged him tightly which Fitz didn't return.
"Look who's back from the dead," Lucky said with a chuckle.
"Who's that?" Fitz asked, referring to the small boy.
"That's my son, Alex."
"Woah, son,- how old is he?"
"3, he's a little younger than your girls."
Lucky shook his head.
"I can't believe you're here man, Olivia was right this entire time."
Fitz turned and looked back at Olivia who was now talking on the phone by the door.
"Yeah," Fitz said with a chuckle, "I didn't know it at the time but I got really lucky when I met Livie."
"She's a real keeper, she really held it down while you were gone, she loves you for real."
Fitz smiled.
"Um uncle Lucky can we play with Alex?" Daisy asked.
"Yeah man," Lucky looked at Fitz, "is it cool?" he asked.
"Yeah, sure."
Fitz lifted both girls off their horses and let them down so they could play with Alex.
"So what happened?" Lucky said once the kids had gone to play.
"A lot happened but I can't really talk about any of it, just know that I'm back for good."
"Yeah but we saw you get your head cut off, there has to be at least some explanation, that was literally your face and now your standing in front of me."
"That wasn't me, obviously."
"So you're saying it was like a doctored video or something?"
"Yeah, you could say that."
Lucky sighed, Fitz had never really been one to say much or go into detail about anything.
"I'm just glad your back, I missed my friend."
Fitz chuckled.
"Yes, we'll have plenty of time to catch up but for now I just need to hunker down with Livie and the girls, they don't know me and I'm trying to get them to at least be comfortable with me around."
"Your girls are good, they'll get used to you in no time, Olivia raised some good girls."
"Yeah, I can see, they're amazing."
"I can't let Alex hang around them too long, he's bad as hell and whenever he comes over here he breaks Olivia's shit."
Fitz chuckled.
"So what do they have like playdates and stuff?"
"Yeah, of course, Alex and your girls are only months apart, they've known each other from the crib. You didn't think that just because you were gone I was gonna just disappear, I had to watch out for Olivia and Lily, we're family, at least I consider you family you probably don't fucking care."
Fitz chuckled.
"You're my friend, of course I fucking care about you," Fitz said, "now get the fuck outta here, I need to spend time with my family."
Lucky chuckled.
"There he is, I was wondering why you were acting so decent." Lucky said, "I just had to see you, this is unbelievable."
They stood talking for a few more minutes before Lucky tried to leave but couldn't because Alex refused to stop playing. He ended up staying there for a few hours to catch up with Fitz and Olivia before he left in the evening.
After Lucky left, Olivia and Fitz took the girls out for dinner at their favorite pizza restaurant. They spent almost two hours at the restaurant and then as soon as they returned home Olivia brought them up to their bathroom for their baths. Whenever she wasn't in a rush, she would fill the tub and let them bathe together in the bath which really consisted of playing and splashing each other for 20 minutes and then she would bathe them. Even though Fitz didn't bathe them, he was able to watch Olivia do it. When she finished bathing and dressing them. He tried to help as much as he could but the girls really only wanted Olivia's help. He tried not to feel bad, they were babies and only really Olivia, it would take time.
After they bathed and brushed their teeth, Olivia took them to their rooms and dressed them in their pajamas and then first went to the twins' room and got them in bed and kissed them good night.
"Daddy's gonna kiss you goodnight too."
Olivia looked to Fitz and he smiled and leaned over and kissed Daisy then they walked over to Isabelle's bed and both kissed her too.
"Goodnight girls," Olivia said to them as she headed to the door and turned off the light and closed the door.
"Do they go straight to sleep?" Fitz asked.
"No all the time, sometimes they'll talk to each other for a few minutes sometimes they'll even climb on each other's bed and play till they fall asleep, depending on how tired they are. I have the monitor in their room so I can hear them if I need to."
"Oh okay."
They walked down the hall to Lily's room. She was already in bed.
"Hey, Rosebud are you tired?" Olivia asked.
"Yeah," Lily said with a yawn.
Olivia walked over and kissed her forehead and then Fitz kissed her cheek.
Lily smiled as her cheeks turned red from embarrassment, it was her first time recalling being kissed by any man. She was only used to women around her and sometimes Lucky. She ducked her face under the blanket, hiding.
Fitz chuckled.
She peeked out at him and when she saw him she hid again.
"Goodnight Lils," Olivia said with a smile.
Lily nodded.
"Good night mommy."
"Good night rosebud," Fitz said.
"Goodnight daddy," she said from under the blanket.
Fitz smiled widely.
Olivia rolled her eyes and pushed him playfully, knowing how happy he was that Lily called him dad.
They walked to the door and turned off the light then headed back to their room.
"God, I love her so much," he said with a chuckle, "all of them equally but Lily's my big girl."
"It's only because she called you dad first unprompted," Olivia teased.
They stepped into their bedroom and Fitz immediately swept her up and spun her around.
Olivia squealed and grabbed his tight so she wouldn't fall.
Fitz pushed the door closed and then walked over to the bed and laid her down.
"We haven't showered since like 7am you know."
Fitz smiled.
"I know."
Olivia scooted further into the middle of the bed. Fitz climbed on right behind her until he reached her and pulled her back to him then he opened her legs and laid in between them.
He stared at her for a moment.
"You are so beautiful."
"You tell me that all the time," she said, flushed with embarrassment.
"I know but sometimes I look at you and I can't believe you're so fucking beautiful."
She grabbed his cheek and pulled his face down and kissed him softly. His penis stiffened as they kissed and almost robotically he began pulling down his pants to free himself. When he kicked off his pants, he raised her hips slightly with one hand and pulled down her yoga pants and underwear until she was naked below the waist. He leaned up and pulled off his shirt then lifted her on top of him and took off her shirt. He flipped their positions so he was on top of her and then slowly dipped her tip at her opening to test how wet she was and entered her. They'd been having extraordinarily short bursts of sex as opposed to their usual marathons. He figured with time maybe he'd go back to lasting a little longer but for now, he knew he wouldn't last more than a minute or two if he was lucky then three.
He began to stroke her in slowly, painfully sweet circles.
"Mmm…" she managed to moan through kisses.
As the moments went by, she inched closer and closer to orgasm until her walls tightened and then exploded into waves of pleasure. Simultaneously, she felt Fitz pumping unevenly into her moaning and groaning with his lips pressed against hers.
"Fuck," he moaned softly with a chuckle after the effects of his orgasm passed.
He took a breath and slowly pulled out knowing he'd left quite a lot of cum inside her.
"I have to stop cuming inside you baby, I can't get you pregnant on my second day back."
Olivia chuckled and shook her head.
"I'm going to the doctor tomorrow morning, I can't really be pregnant right now and with our track record we've taken enough chances."
"Yeah, but you said you're not ovulating right?"
"No, my chances right now are really low but only for a few more days then I ovulate that week so I need to put it in as soon as possible."
Fitz nodded.
Olivia pulled him down on top of her again.
"Okay now stop worrying about my uterus and worry about following up part 1 with part 2," she said with a chuckle.
Fitz gasped, "maybe even a part 3, if I survive."
Olivia smiled and nodded.
"Yes, please."
The next morning Olivia woke when she felt Fitz gone from the bed. She turned and looked for him and found him pacing by the window as he spoke on the phone. She remembered when he used to do that when the deltas called but decided not to think too hard about it because there was no way he was leaving and just thinking about it had thrown off her mood to begin the day. She had assumed even without discussing it with him that he was never going back but maybe she was wrong. Just the thought of him leaving again was too much for her and after everything she'd been through in the last 5 years because of the deltas, she was ready to draw a line. She wasn't going through it again.
She reached over to her nightstand and checked the time on her phone, it was almost 7am and her doctor's appointment was for 9:30, she got out of bed, sticky and naked, and walked to the bathroom to shower and brush her teeth.
When she got out of the bathroom Fitz was still by the window. He wasn't speaking loud enough for her to hear his conversation and she knew there was a reason for that. She walked to her closet and began getting dressed only for Fitz to walk in behind her moments later.
She turned around in her panties and bra. Based on the look on her face he was sure she knew what he was about to say so he decided to just come out and say it.
"I have to leave, just for a couple of days and then I'll be back."
She chuckled and shook her head.
"You're not leaving."
She turned back around and resumed pulling out a pair of jeans from her closet. She took a deep breath to try to calm down, she could already feel tears and a fight coming but she wasn't going to back down.
"Liv, look, It'll only be a few days okay."
"Sure Fitz, because I've never heard that before."
"There's a lot that I didn't take care of before I came here mostly because I didn't have my memory and I didn't know what to expect. Huck and all the other deltas are there in cells, there's no one to take over and no. everyone who thought I was dead knows I'm alive-"
"You're not going okay, I'm not going through this again, I can't do it again" she began crying.
Fitz walked over to her quickly and tried to hold her but she pulled away.
"I know this is tough baby but I have to go, just for a couple of days, that's it, I know it's not fair but this is our life. I promise this is it."
Olivia didn't respond, she just wiped her eyes and continued getting dressed. She was seething.
Instead of dressing in her outfit she'd planned to wear to her gynecologist, she began dressing in legging and a sweater. She wasn't going anymore.
"I don't want to go Olivia but I have to."
She didn't respond but she was so angry her hands trembled slightly as she dressed.
"Olivia, are you going talk to me? Or respond...just...say something."
She pulled her sweater over her head.
"Livie, you know how complicated our situation is."
She didn't respond as she turned and headed out of the bedroom.
"Olivia come on, I'm talking to you..." he tried to hold her arm as she walked past him but she yanked it away.
"If you're gonna go then go," she screamed.
"I'm not gonna leave you this upset okay, let's just talk."
"About what?" she said. "about the fact that while you were gone for the 4 and a half years, I went through a pregnancy with twins alone, I raised two infants and a toddler alone, I've been alone and now you finally come back and after 2 days you're leaving. If you go and happen to survive long enough to come back, you're coming back to a different person. I'm not doing this again and anything that happens this time, it's on you."
"Olivia that's not a fair thing to say-"
"You what else is not fair? That our daughters are almost 6 and 4 and they have no fucking idea who you are."
She turned around and walked back to her closet because she began to feel anger at him about things she didn't even know she was angry about. She took a breath and closed her eyes only to hear Lily's voice.
"Mommy?"
She was standing behind Fitz.
Olivia took a breath and wiped her eyes as best she could and turned around with a smile.
"Hi sweetie, what are you doing up?"
Lily walked past Fitz over to Olivia.
"Mommy, why are you crying?" Lily said as she alternated between looking at Olivia and Fitz.
Olivia wiped her eyes again and smiled as she kneeled down to Lily's level.
"Oh honey I'm fine, I just had a really bad headache but dad gave me some medicine and I'm feeling a little better."
Fitz was astounded at how quickly she could mask her emotions for Lily and also heartbroken at the fact that after only two days they were fighting and needed to hide it from their children.
Lily looked at Fitz skeptically.
Fitz smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, mom woke up with a bad headache but I think maybe she just needs some rest."
"and breakfast," Lily said, "Sonia said it's the most important."
"Yeah," Fitz said with a masked smile of his own, "that's a great idea, we should get mom breakfast."
"Yeah," Lily nodded.
She reached over and hugged Olivia.
"I'm gonna make you breakfast mom, what do you want?"
"Parfait sounds delicious right now."
Lily nodded, "Sonia taught me how to make that." She held Fitz's hand and pulled him to the kitchen. Fitz reluctantly left Olivia in the closet and followed Lily down to the kitchen.
Olivia took a few minutes to gather herself before she went to the twins' bedroom to wake them.
When Fitz and Lily came back the twins were up and their teeth her brushed but they were still in their pajamas.
"Mom, your breakfast is ready," Lily said with a bowl of yogurt parfait and a spoon. Fitz stood behind her.
Lily handed the bowl to Olivia.
"Thank you so much sweetie, it looks delicious."
Lily jumped up excitedly. "Thanks, mom."
"Daisy, Izzy I made some for you too," Lily shouted to her sisters.
"Why don't we all go down to the kitchen and eat," Olivia said.
They all went down to the kitchen and ate. There was still so much tension between them but Olivia hid it so well the girls were oblivious.
A little after 8am, the girls' nanny Kristen came in and took the girls up to get them ready for the day. She'd asked Kristen if she could come in for a few hours because she wanted Fitz to have some help while she went to the doctor but now it didn't matter, she would be staying home and he would be gone.
Once the girls left for upstairs Olivia took a small sigh, the day had only just begun and she was already exhausted.
"How are you feeling?" he asked.
She didn't respond.
"Look, you're right about everything you said but I still have to go."
"Then go. If that's what's important to you right now, and bonding with your wife and children isn't then you should go."
Fitz sighed in frustration.
"You're making it into this binary choice when it isn't."
He didn't know what to do, he felt like he couldn't leave Olivia so upset but he also knew that he needed to go back to the base and take care of everything that needed to be taken care of before he left for good which he absolutely planned on doing only Olivia didn't seem to believe that.
"What do you want me to do then, I should just leave everything unfinished and hope that Huck and the rest of them never leave their cells and begin terrorizing us again?"
"You should do what's important to you Fitz if leaving is what's important then you do that. I'm done."
The moment she said the words, Fitz felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He was supposed to have left already.
Olivia chuckled humorlessly.
Fitz declined the call and stepped closer to Olivia.
"Livie I'm begging you, just give me one more chance, just a couple of days, I swear this is it."
The tears came again, they stung in her eyes but she refused to respond, she refused to give him the comfort he needed to ease his guilt about leaving.
When Fitz realized that she wouldn't respond, he kissed her temple and left.
