Olivia closed the cabin door behind her and walked down the aisle where Fitz sat working on his computer. The moment he saw her coming toward him he closed his laptop and stretched for her to sit on his lap.
"The girls are finally asleep for their nap," she said as she sat on his lap on the large airplane seat.
"Good, they should be tired."
"They were," Olivia said as she leaned in and kissed him tenderly on his lips then she smoothed his hair back gently. Fitz wrapped his hands around her hips and caressed her ass.
Sonia was down this aisle in a separate seat, out of their view.
"I feel horrible about my Erin tantrum," Olivia admitted, "I'd blame my hormones but I think I just feel guilty and I'm trying to keep everyone together."
Fitz smiled, "you don't have to keep apologizing."
"I know, I know, just let me do it until I don't feel so bad anymore. Obviously you know that you come first in my life but still you know…even after everything I'm trying to keep everything together..maybe to ease my guilt about my life and Erin's turning out vastly different."
"It's normal to feel guilty but you didn't turn Erin into the person she is. Your father did."
"I know but look at me…I changed…she can too."
"Maybe. Hopefully. But Olivia did you really change?"
Olivia bit back a gulp, "what do you mean?"
"I don't really think you changed that much, I think you're the same person as before you just aren't doing what you used to and now you're a mom."
"I think I've changed."
"I think you've always been loyal to the people you love and you protect them but I think you'd be just as cutthroat to people who try to hurt you now as you were before, maybe even more so it got me thinking that it's just your circumstances that have changed."
Olivia took a moment to digest his words.
"Maybe you're right but what about you, you don't think you've changed."
"I definitely changed," he said with a chuckle. "But I sorely needed changing."
Olivia laughed then sighed, "I'm ready to tell the girls about the baby. What do you think?"
"Do you think they'll understand? I'm pretty sure we've mentioned it but they haven't picked up."
"If we explain it to Lily she'll understand, the twins probably won't until they actually physically see the baby."
"Okay, let's do it, we'll tell them when we get back to the island and settle in."
They landed on the island at nightfall. Fitz helped Olivia out of the boat first, then Sonia, then he lifted out Lily and the twins. They were all awake.
"Come on girls," Olivia said, "let's have tub time."
"Mommy I don't want to bathe," Lily complained.
"Me either," Daisy said.
Isabelle kept quiet.
"Do you want to be stinky then?" Olivia teased.
"What?" Isabelle said.
"When you don't bathe, you get stinky," Fitz interjected. "Can I call you stinky when that happens?"
"No daddy," they all screamed.
"Well then run to the shower quick, before you start to stink," Fitz teased.
All three girls took off to the villa, running down the mooring until they hit the sand.
"Careful girls," Olivia screamed as they ran.
"They'll be fine," Fitz said as he threw his arm over her shoulder and they walked towards the villa with Sonia.
"Do you need me to help bathe them?" Sonia asked.
"Oh no Sonia, you've done enough, go get some rest," Fitz said.
Sonia nodded with a kind smile. "In that case, I'll whisper a couple of prayers and jump in my bed."
"Are you sure you don't want to grab a bite to eat? Lais has food prepared."
"That would be even better," Sonia said.
"I just wanted the girls showered first so they could just brush their teeth and get right into bed after."
Sonia nodded.
After Olivia and Fitz showered the girls, ate, and had their teeth brushed they walked them to their bedroom. They preferred to sleep together in the large king bed. Fitz pulled back the sheets to tuck them in and all three of them climbed in.
"Can we watch a movie until we fall asleep," Lily asked.
"You girls have school tomorrow so maybe a couple of episodes of something then bedtime okay," Olivia said
They all nodded.
"Before we choose something to watch daddy and I have something to tell you," Olivia said.
"What mommy?" Lily asked.
"Mommy and daddy are having a baby," Olivia said.
"A baby?" Isabelle asked.
"Yes," Fitz said.
Olivia lifted her shirt and showed them her small but pronounced bump. "There's a baby in mommy's belly."
"How did it get there?" Lily asked.
Fitz smiled, finding Lily's question amusing then he looked to Olivia, hoping she would tackle it.
"When a mommy and daddy really love each other from that love comes a baby. That's how we made you and Izzy and Daisy."
"How?" Lily asked.
"When you're a grown-up you'll understand," Fitz said.
"Does that mean I'll have to share you even more?" Lily asked, annoyed.
Olivia chuckled, "you don't like sharing us with your sisters?"
"No, but I put up with it because they're my sisters and now I have to share you and dad even more. It's not fair."
"Honey, this baby will be your brother or sister just like Daisy and Isabelle," Fitz said, stifling back a laugh.
"I don't want another Daisy or Isabelle," Lily complained.
"That's mean Lily," Daisy fired back.
"You know, we won't love any of you any less because of the baby," Fitz said.
Lily burst out into tears and turned on the bed and covered her head.
"Lily," Olivia said, surprised, "why are you crying?"
"I don't want you to have another baby. I like it when you don't work and you and daddy are with us all day. I don't want you to have another baby and I don't want you to go to work."
"Darling, look at me," Olivia said.
Lily wiped her eyes on the pillow and looked up at her parents. "We have so much love to give you and your sisters, as much love as you need. You shouldn't be scared to have another brother or sister because that doesn't mean we'll love you any less. There might be a little bit of time where we have to take extra care of the baby because it's so small but even then we'll still love you and give you everything you need. I'm not going back to work right now so before the baby comes we'll have all the time in the world to spend together okay," Olivia pulled back her blanket and pulled Lily towards her. Fitz called the twins to his lap. Olivia kissed Lily's cheek and pulled her hair from her face and kissed her lips. "At one point you were in my belly, you know that right?" Olivia asked.
Lily nodded, "and when you were born, we loved you so much we just have to give you sisters and so we had Isabelle and Daisy."
"Are you gonna have more babies after this baby?" Lily asked.
"No," Olivia said, "this is the last baby."
"Good," Lily said with a sigh.
Fitz laughed as he kissed the twins.
"I think you'll love the baby when it gets here," Fitz said, "I think all of you will."
Lily crawled from Olivia's lap to Fitz, "kiss me, daddy," Lily instructed. Fitz leaned over and kissed her lips then her hair.
The twins went to Olivia for their kiss as well.
"Okay," Olivia said, "scoot your butts into bed."
Once they crawled back under the blankets Fitz grabbed the remote and set the sleep timer for 1 hour. "I set the time for one hour. I want you guys to pick a show and I don't want you to fight about it, if you do we'll hear you on the monitor. When the timer goes off I want you to go to bed. Your mom and I are gonna come and check on you to make sure you're sleeping, okay?
All three nodded.
"Good night, I love you," Fitz said as he stood from the bed.
"Mommy loves you too," Olivia said.
They headed towards the door and turned off the lights. The moment Olivia closed the door Fitz lifted her in the air. She covered her mouth to stifle a squeal then hugged onto him and laughed as he carried her to their bedroom then Fitz kicked the door shut behind them. He walked her to the bed and laid down.
"On a scale of 1-10, 1 being the most disastrous, how was that?"
"It could've been worse," Olivia said, "not much worse but worse so I'd give it a 4. She admitted to wanting us around all day, that's good I guess."
"Until you have to go back to work or until she sees us giving the baby attention."
"She adjusted pretty well to the twins but she was younger so I don't know…maybe she'll feel better once she sees a baby or maybe it'll be an adjustment."
Fitz leaned down and kissed her, "let's hope for the former."
"And prepare for the latter," Olivia added.
He chuckled and shook his head, "I'm gonna go shower."
"Why?"
"What do you mean why?"
"I want you when you're all sweaty," Olivia said as she reached down into his sweatpants and grabbed his cock. She watched him stiffen and his breath hitched. "Look at you," Olivia teased, "you want it bad."
"What the fuck do you think," Fitz mumbled desperately.
"My poor husband, I haven't been taking care of you, have I?" Olivia teased again as she massaged up and down his shaft. With her free hand, she pushed down the waist of both his boxers and sweatpants then wrapped her legs around him.
"Mmmm," Fitz groaned as he pulled her hand from his now stiff shaft, "I can't handle foreplay right now."
Olivia laughed and unwrapped her legs from him. She pulled off her tank top then reached down and unbuttoned her jeans shorts. She felt Fitz pull her shorts and panties down to her knees then he turned her over on her belly. Fitz positioned himself behind her and pulled off his t-shirt as she pulled a pillow under her and braced against her elbows. He licked the blade of her shoulder and then gently sucked the crook of her neck.
"Are you sure you're ready," he asked, salivating in anticipation of being inside her. As ready as he was, it didn't matter if Olivia wasn't ready too.
"I wouldn't let you wait another second," Olivia murmured as she slightly turned her head so she could see him. Fitz leaned over behind her until he was lined up perfectly with all the holes he wanted to take. Olivia met his lips in a half turn and kissed him softly as he slowly entered her. She didn't realize how wet she was until she felt fluid spread to her inner thighs as Fitz thrust once then fully removed himself and entered her again.
"Fuck," he whispered against her lips.
Olivia flicked her tongue against his lips and Fitz quickly opened his mouth to let her in again. She sucked against his tongue as he thrust again. "Mmmmmm…." she moaned, unable to bite it back. "Fuck…baby….more."
Fitz dipped down closer so he could feel her ass against his groin then rolled his hips back and began thrusting with constant speed. Olivia opened her mouth wide and sucked in a deep breath as she gripped the pillow under her. Fitz kissed her open mouth and began to suck on her bottom lip. Olivia joined the kiss again as she pushed the pillow away and braced against the bed so she could meet his thrust. Fitz faltered in his rhythm for a moment before meeting hers again then riding her until her walls were quaking on his penis as he burst.
After he emptied himself inside her, he pulled out and fell back on the bed, smiling at the ceiling while beads of sweat ran down his forehead.
"Holy shit," mumbled with his lips between a smile and grin.
"Holy shit is right," Olivia said breathlessly.
Fitz leaned up and pulled her against his chest then kissed her.
"That was a lot of cum," she said with a grin.
"You've been starving me, what did you expect," he said as he pulled her leg over his torso. Olivia chuckled and caressed his cheek, "I'm with you all day, every day and I still fucking miss you."
"You'll get tired of me eventually, don't worry," Fitz quipped.
Olivia laughed and kicked off her pants, "let's go wash off, and then you can give me part two."
"Should we bring the monitor?" Fitz asked as he leaned up.
"Is it on?"
Fitz reached across the bed to the nightstand and grabbed the monitor.
"Oh shit, the volume was down." He turned it up and heard Peppa pig audio coming through the speaker. "They're fine," Olivia said.
Fitz stood and pulled her up, "let's go for a swim," he said as he led her to the clear glass door.
"Where are the guards? I don't want them to see me?"
Fitz groaned, pretending to be annoyed as he walked to grab his phone from his pocket. He quickly called the guards and told them to stay away from the front of the villa.
"Is that better?" he asked as he walked out to the sand.
"Much better," Olivia said, joining him naked. "Even though we should have given them some time to actually leave."
"They were not even here," Fitz said, "they're in the security tower!"
"Fine," Olivia said with a chuckle.
They walked down the shore until their feet touched the water, then they walked until they were waist deep. He pulled her in front of him and wrapped his arms around her belly.
"I'm gonna tell you something and I don't need you to freak out."
"Oh my god," Olivia said, "what is it?"
Fitz chuckled, "didn't I just ask you to not freak out?"
She took a breath, "okay, I'm calm. I'm really calm."
Fitz took a breath, "It really bothers me when you don't speak to me." Fitz admitted, "and not just bother me like I'm a little annoyed, I actually feel kind of devastated when you aren't speaking to me."
Olivia didn't know what to say. She turned around and faced him.
"Why do you think it bothers you so much?"
"I don't know. I don't really have a world outside of you and the kids so when I'm cut off from you, no matter how short, it feels like I'm cut off from everything. With you, I mean, you have people outside of me that you can talk to, you have friends, you have Sonia who's basically like your mother. It's different for you."
Olivia kissed his chest, "okay, I won't do it anymore."
"No, I'm not saying you don't have to do it. If you're really mad at me and you don't want to talk then that's fine."
"No, I won't do it anymore," Olivia said firmly. "I can find other ways to torture you when I'm mad at you. Granted, I spend 99.9% of my time loving you so much I can't fucking bear it but that .1%, I need to find something to annoy you with."
"Like what?" Fitz said with a chuckle.
"I don't know yet."
"You can yell…" Fitz teased. "I think it's hot when you yell…I admit…so that's more for me than you."
"I don't want to yell at you," Olivia said with a chuckle, "not talking….is usually my way to stay mad at you. If I talk to you I can't really be mad."
Fitz shrugged, "I'm never really mad at you so I'm not sure what the equivalent for me would be."
"Well, I hate being yelled at. It just reminds me of when my dad would fucking yell at me."
"Okay no yelling from me then."
Olivia smiled, "okay." then she shook her head, "you really have changed."
Fitz kissed her and then dove forward in the water and swam away. Olivia joined him, though she didn't swim as fast as he did to avoid over-exerting herself. After some time in the water, they went back into the villa. After showering, Olivia crawled into bed while Fitz went to go make sure the girls were sleeping. When he saw that they were okay, he joined Olivia.
Olivia woke before him in the morning. She was surprised, since it was Fitz who usually woke first. She sat up and checked the time, it was just after 6am.
"What time is it?" Fitz groaned when she felt her move beside him.
"6 in the morning," Olivia said.
He groaned and turned to his side. Olivia smiled and leaned over him then slid her fingers down into his underpants. She looked up at him and when he didn't move she pulled his penis out of his underpants and licked his flaccid tip. She looked up again and he was hiding a smile.
She chuckled and pushed him on his back then switched her position so she was perpendicular to him. She licked from his balls up to his tip then looked up at him to gauge his reaction
He was still grinning boyishly but now he was propped up by his elbows as he looked down on her. She worked him deeper and deeper into her mouth, until she lubricated him with her saliva and easily twisted her hands in opposite directions around his shaft as she sucked him until just before he orgasmed, she released him and stroked him as he spewed cum on his stomach.
"Whew," he said with a chuckle once his orgasm ended. Olivia leaned up and licked up his torso, spreading his cum with her tongue until she reached his neck then kissed him lightly. It was something that drove him wild every time.
In response he sucked in a breath and slapped her ass. "Why are you so fucking sexy," he groaned.
She nipped his throat lightly and felt him slap her again then she licked him. "I couldn't fucking tell you," she teased playfully, pretending his question wasn't rhetorical.
He flipped her around and pulled off her cami that had wet spots from his semen when she pressed against his stomach. Once she was shirtless Fitz squished her breasts together and began to suck. Olivia bit her lips and dug her toes into the sheets as she enjoyed his attention on her breasts. Moments later, she was begging him to lick her. Fitz leaned up and sucking and massaging her breast and pulled down her panties then switched her slightly to her side, giving him more room to play between her open legs.
He began licking her clit immediately, ravenously, bringing her to a shuddering orgasm so quickly she was slightly embarrassed.
Fitz brought his lips up to her and shared her taste with a kiss before he nestled himself between her open legs and slowly slid inside her, working her hole with slow rhythmic strokes. Olivia wrapped her hand in his hair and the other was gripping his back and she deepened their kiss and enjoyed the high she felt from his love.
"I love you so much," she whispered in his mouth.
"I love you too," Fitz whispered back.
Moments later, they came in unison. Fitz pulled out and leaned up then kissed her belly.
"How do you feel?" he said, then kissed her belly again and ran his fingers around her bump.
"I feel great," Olivia said with a smile. Cum was still leaking from between her legs. She grabbed her phone from the nightstand and checked the time. "It's almost 7 now. We should shower quickly so we can wake the girls."
"Why are you waking them so early?"
"I was thinking 7:30/8, which isn't a little later than they usually get up for school."
"School in California, they're not in California anymore, let them sleep and lay here with me so I can fondle you."
Olivia rolled her eyes, "fine but like I said, when they can't read, I'm blaming you."
"I'll take the blame," Fitz said as he turned her and rubbed circles into her ass.
Olivia pushed him off playfully and sat up, "I'll be right back, then you can feel me up, okay."
Fitz nodded and turned over on his belly and stretched. Olivia grabbed her robe from the bathroom and then headed out of their bedroom and closed the door behind her. About ten minutes later, she returned. Fitz heard the door open but didn't turn around. "What took you so long, did you go take a shit," he teased though he hadn't turned around to see her with a tray in her hand.
"Fuck off," Olivia said as she placed the tray on the bed. Fitz turned around and saw a bowl of fruit with a croissant and coffee. Fitz sat up and stretched his hand for strawberry in the fruit bowl but Olivia slapped his hand away. "You should have kept your mouth shut, you asshole. Now, you'll starve."
He laughed. "Come on, I'm hungry."
"Okay."
"You're really gonna eat this in front of me."
"I brought it for you but since you wanted to be funny…."
Fitz pouted playfully and Olivia relented and shoved a strawberry in his mouth then she relaxed beside him as she fed herself as well.
A little while later, there was a quiet knock on the door.
"Mommy? Daddy?" Lily called.
"Oh shit," Fitz mumbled as he hurried up and scrambled to cloth himself.
"One sec babe," Olivia called out to Lily.
Once Fitz emerged from the bathroom in a robe and quickly slipped on his underpants she went to open the door for Lily.
"Good morning sweetheart," he said as he lifted her and hugged her. "Are your sisters still sleeping?"
"Isabelle peed the bed," Lily said. "And she's crying."
"Oh no, let's go check on her," he said.
Olivia stood from the bed and followed behind them. When they got to the girls room, Isabelle was crying sitting up on the bed. Olivia walked to her and lifted her from the bed and hugged her.
"Oh sweetie, don't be embarrassed, it's okay."
Isabelle just nestled her face into the crook of Olivia's neck. "I dreaming I was in the bathroom," Isabelle said.
"It's okay," Olivia said, "accidents happen."
"Yeah Izzy, I used to pee the bed all the time but then I turned 4," Lily said.
Fitz stifled back a laugh and cleared his throat clumsily which almost made Olivia laugh but she bit it back.
"Honey, let's get you all clean and fresh again then we can have some breakfast." Olivia carried Isabelle to the bathroom much to Fitz's chagrin and closed the door behind her to change Isabelle clothes then bathe her.
Daisy was still sleeping on the bed when Fitz reached over and tickled her.
"Good morning, ," Fitz whispered. She popped up with a smile, "were you pretending to sleep?" He asked.
Daisy nodded, beaming.
"Come here weirdo," he teased and he lifted her on her hip opposite Lily then walked them to the bathroom door. "Lily, can you knock for me honey and ask Isabelle if she's okay if we come in," Fitz asked.
Lily knocked, "Isabelle can we come in while mommy washes off your pee?"
"Come in Lily," Isabelle called back.
Fitz opened the door while skillfully maneuvering both his daughters in his arms. In the bathroom, Olivia was kneeling at the side of the tub while she combed through Isabelle's wavy chocolate brown hair.
"Hi daddy," Isabelle said happily. "Mommy combing my hair," she announced.
"I can see, it looks great."
He carried both the girls to the vanity and brushed their teeth and washed their faces. By then, Olivia was finished with Isabelle and carried her back out to the bedroom where he joined them as they got them dressed for the day. After breakfast, they left the girls with Sonia to begin their tutoring and headed back to their bedroom. They showered and dressed and when Fitz found his phone buried in the sheet, he saw a few missed calls from his lawyer.
"Oh fuck, we were go," Fitz groaned.
"What?" Olivia asked.
"John's been calling me."
"What do you think it is?"
"Nothing good," Fitz mumbled as he dialed John back. He put his phone on speaker so Olvia could hear what John had to say.
"Mr. Grant," he bellowed through the phone. Olivia smiled while Fitz rolled his eyes. "I've watched the footage and it's just as bad as we expected. I'm asking your permission to send a fixer to meet you. He's set up an interview with Kimberly, it's up to you to decide if you want to do it?"
"If we don't?" Fitz asked.
"Legally, there's really no trouble here, you have a full pardon but if you want to be able to come back and live a normal life with your kids, you're gonna have to go on tv and smile and convince people you're not the psycho they see in those videos."
"Fine," Fitz said. "Set it up."
"I'm sending the fixer to you, I'll arrange it with your head of security," John said.
"Okay," Fitz said, then hung up.
"This is a good thing," Olivia said, "it's one step closer to normal again."
"Are you forgetting they still have those masks out there?"
"No, definitely not," Olivia said, "but still, at least we can put out one fire."
"Wait…you're doing it with me right?" He asked.
"No."
"I'm not doing it if you're not doing it with me," he whined.
"Of course I'll do it with you, stop being a giant fucking baby," Olivia teased.
"Fine," he said with a smile.
"Oh and you have to listen to what the fixer says, don't fight with him."
"I really was looking forward to giving him a hard time but fine."
Olivia smiled but didn't respond.
Olivia was sitting outside by the water when Fitz came up behind her. It was almost midday and she watched as the girls splashed in the water during their break from classes. He sat beside her but when she didn't feel him reach for her she turned around.
"You aren't gonna feel me up or something? You know, in a very pg 13 kind of way," After she joked she noticed he was angry. "Oh fuck, what happened now?"
"I found your sister."
"But that's a bad thing…"
"She's with Mellie Olivia, she lied to you. She was with Mellie when she called."
Olivia was quiet for a moment, "are you sure she even went willingly…"
Fitz sucked in a deep breath then answered. "Are you serious Olivia?" He watched her tense and took another breath. "Olivia, I know you love her and I know she's the only family you have outside of me and our girls but I still can't understand why you're twisting yourself in knots trying to defend her or excuse her when there is no excuse for what she's doing. I told you this was gonna happen and still."
Olivia shook her head and sighed, "deep down I know…it's just hard to accept it if I haven't tried every possible thing I can to get her back."
"There's nothing else."
Olivia was silent for a moment. "I know."
"I've been trying to find Mellie and suddenly Erin calls and gives her location. They want me to come and get her or they want me to send people to get her. I'm not sure which one."
"Then don't…I mean…" Olivia sighed, "why the fuck does everything have to be so complicated."
Fitz sighed, "you married a man who managed to piss off half the assholes on the planet and the other half you pissed off yourself."
Olivia thought for a moment. "Just give me one last chance to talk to her. I'll let it go. I promise I'll let her go. I just need to talk to her."
"But Olivia, she's lying to you. She just lied to you. You had Rumi send her money to do god knows what with it. What's the point if she's lying."
"Now I know that," Olivia said, "so just give me a chance. I'll put her on speaker so you can hear even though I'm sure you'll listen anyways."
"Can you blame me? Besides, it's how I was able to find out she wasn't where she said she was."
She sighed. "Fuck. Should I even talk to her? You decide because my judgment is so fucking off when it comes to Erin."
"No, I can't decide anything for you because if anything goes wrong, you'll blame me."
"-I won't-"
"Yes you will. You need to decide, one last time, I'll do whatever I can to help you because I said I would but after this-"
"I know- I promise…no more." She leaned over and kissed him. "Thanks for putting up with all of this." Olivia hugged him, "I want us to put this all behind us. I just need a clear conscience first…and a part of me can't believe she's doing this."
"I understand but you need to deal with this becuase as much as Erin fucking knows-"
"I know," Olivia agreed, "I know." She turned to Sonia who was a distance away and yelled, "Sonia I'll be right back."
"Daddy swim with us," Isabelle screamed as she splashed her sister Daisy with water.
"I'm sorry Izzy I can't swim with you right now, I have some work to do."
All three girls frowned.
"I promise after all your lessons are done we can go back in the water."
"You promise?" Daisy said.
"I swear," Fitz said, holding a hand across his chest.
"Okay daddy promised," Daisy announced to her sisters.
"And if you break your promise then I'll draw poop emojis on your face in your sleep daddy," Lily joked.
All three girls burst into laughter.
"And I'd deserve it," Fitz agreed.
Fitz chuckled and headed inside the villa with Olivia. When they got to the bedroom she grabbed her phone and saw a few missed calls from the number Erin used to call her. Before she called back she went to the study to speak with Rumi just to get more detail on her conversations with Erin. After she got more of the details she was looking for she met Fitz in their bedroom on the couch.
She sat and took a breath then dialed Erin and put her one speaker so Fitz could hear. It rang for a few seconds before she picked up.
"I called you two times, Olivia," Erin said. "I'm tired of taking to your fucking assistant."
"I'm sorry, I was busy. Rumi told me she sent you the money and she booked you a hotel. Are you there now?"
"Uh yeah…I need to see you…I need someone Olivia."
Fitz rolled his eyes.
"What do you mean you need to see me?"
"I need someone Olivia, that's what I mean. I need you to be with me."
Fitz let out a breath. She could tell he was angry and trying to calm himself.
"Erin, I can't do that right now. Things are crazy and I need to be with my Fitz and daughters."
"Isn't he their dad, can't he stay with them," Erin retorted. "You told me you would help me. I know I fucked up when I did what I did but I really fucking need you right now."
"What hotel are you at? I can't remember the name?"
There was a pause, "umm…I can't remember…"
"What's your room number?" Olivia asked.
"How am I supposed to remember Olivia?"
"What floor are you on?" Olivia asked.
She heard an audible sigh from Erin, "Olivia I'm telling you I need support and you're asking me about a fucking hotel Olivia. Are you fucking Serious?"
"Stop talking to me like that, Erin. I've been gentle with you…even after everything you've done and so you're gonna stop fucking talking to me like that," Olivia said angrily. "Unless you want it right back."
Olivia took a breath, trying to calm down then she looked at Fitz wondering if she should reveal what she knows to Erin. It was almost as if he could read her mind, she saw him nod at her.
"I'm not coming to meet you."
"Why not? Are you too good to come and see me? You have to send assistants and guards."
"I'm not coming because you're lying to me. You're not where you say you are and you're with someone who is my enemy. The fact that you're even fucking trying to get me to come to you tells me you're just as much an enemy as she is and so now I'm gonna treat you just like I am her."
"It's not you," Erin screamed, "it's him. I fucking hate him and I'm not gonna stop until he's fucking dead. Mellie feel's the same. How many people can he fuck over before someone puts a stop to it."
"It won't end well for you."
"He drugged me…"
"You drugged your-fucking-self," Olivia said.
Erin laughed sardonically, "now I know whose side you're on."
"Fitz. Always," Olivia said, "and you're an idiot if you ever thought otherwise."
"Then fine choose him over me, your own fucking sister-" Erin screamed. "Your own blood-"
"-I'm sorry I ever met you, you selfish cunt and I fucking dare you-I will strangle you with my own bare fucking hands before I let you do anything to hurt my husband or my daughters ever again you stupid bitch. You're fucking dead to me." Olivia screamed, "and tell Mellie to count her fucking days." Olivia hung up and flung the phone across the room then stood. Fitz stood just as quickly and reached for her but she rebuffed, "no, I'm fine. I just need some air."
"That was tough-"
"Well you warned me," Olivia said, "you saw this coming from a mile away…I was just a fucking idiot. Do whatever you have to do…I…uh…I don't…" she sighed and turned towards the screen doors but Fitz was infront of her before she could open them. "Don't leave," he said softly as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her against his chest.
"I'm so embarrassed," Olivia whispered. "Was she like this all along and I was just blind?"
"Don't be ridiculous," Fitz said. "After all the shit we've been through together don't you fucking dare be embarrassed about anything. You've done nothing but try to be everything she needs. Fuck her if that's not enough. She doesn't deserve you."
"I thought she would be different from Eli. I wanted her to be different but she's just as hateful and selfish."
Fitz kissed her against her hair and held her even closer. "You and I, maybe we weren't meant to be with the family we were born with. Maybe we were meant to make our own."
Olivia let out a long breath and hugged him tighter. "As hard as it is to accept…you're right."
"I love you," Fitz whispered, "I'm not happy to be right about this."
"I love you too."
They both turned to look outside and watched Sonia helping the girls from out of the ocean. The door was closed on both sides of the room.
"It's time for us to leave the island," Fitz said. He kissed her again then let her go, "we'll leave in two days. It's not safe here anymore."
A/N - I'm sorry it took so long to post this chapter. It was 50% done for a few months now. Much more craziness happens but I had to cut it off because I've gotten a-lot of requests to post (some not so nice lol ) and to finish the chapter at around 10,000 words which was my goal would have taken a-lot more time. Hope you enjoy. Leave a review. I miss you guys!
