She knew he was tired, exhausted was actually more of an accurate term to describe the look upon her husband's face. He trudged into their room without a word, pulling all of his clothes off in a huff, leaving them in a heap upon the hardwood floor, before pulling on his pyjama bottoms. The next thing she felt was the sinking of the mattress as he launched himself onto their bed, nestling his head upon her breasts.

"Comfy?" She giggled as he looked at her.

"Very." He moaned as she ran her fingers through his soft hair. God he missed her pretty face all day today. He truly hated how much she worked.

"Did you finally get her down?"

"Yes." He let out a sigh of exhaustion before chuckling. "It wasn't without lots of tears, screaming and fighting."

"I did tell you what candy does to her, you never listen to me." Olivia teased, pecking the top of his head.

Fitz inhaled sharply. When Olivia warned him when it came to Amelia and candy, he simply thought she was exaggerating. After all, his baby girl was only 2 and half, how troublesome could a little sugar be? Well he found out. After temper tantrum after temper tantrum, Fitz vowed never EVER to allow her to eat another gummy worm ever again.

"You were right." He muttered underneath his breath.

"HA!" She laughed placing her magazine on their bedside table. If there was one thing she loved, it was being right. Olivia had given him fair warning, and being the stubborn man he was, Fitz ignored her. Now it was her time to gloat, and she would enjoy every damn second. "Nice try!"

He rolled his eyes. "Leave it."

"No!" She fired out. Pouncing on top of him, she rolled them over so now she straddled him. With his hands over top his head, she dominated him firmly. "Say it."

"I did."

"Say it again, properly."

He laughed, rolling his eyes even harder this time. This was exactly what he missed for 3 years. His best friend in the entire world. He loved the fact that despite they were married with jobs and a child, they were still able to act like those silly 16 year olds they once were.

"Damn it Livvie I already said it!"

"Say it!"

"NO!"

"Thats it!" She hissed taking her hands from his wrists, to his nipples. She then proceeded to give him the hardest purple murple she could muster which had him screaming out in pain.

"JESUS! OW! OW! OW! OK OK OK YOU WIN!" He cried as he flew up in her arms. Tears were nearly streaming down his face. "YOU WIN LIVVIE PLEASE STOP!"

"SAY IT!"

"YOU WERE RIGHT! YOU'RE ALWAYS RIGHT!" He screeched at the top of his lungs to her pleasure. She smiled devilishly before releasing her hold on his skin.

"Now was that so hard?" She asked slyly, biting her lip at the last word.

"I really hate you." He frowned, looking down at his red chest.

"You hate mommy?"

The little voice in the doorway stole both of their attention. Having been so caught up in one another, they had managed to wake up a sleeping Amelia who was now standing in the doorway. Her curly hair was in two simple braids as she wore her favourite pink nightgown. Both parents hearts sank as they heard the crack in her little voice, and watched as her eyes got wider if possible.

"No." Fitz shook his head adamantly before kissing Olivia on the cheek who was still straddling his lap. "I love your mommy very much."

Amelia didn't respond, as if she didn't believe them.

"Baby come here." Olivia beckoned.

Slowly Amelia made her way over to the bed, and with the help of Fitz, got on top of the fluffy mattress. The little girl cocooned herself in her fathers lap, still quiet as ever. "Your daddy and I were just joking baby." Olivia soothed, stroking her daughters hair as she laid beside them. "We love each other very much, just as much as we love you."

"Really?!" Amelia giggled as Olivia poked her cheek.

"Really baby." Fitz kissed her pretty daughter's forehead. "You're our little munchkin."

"I'm not a munchkin daddy!" Amelia laughed gleefully, throwing her tiny hands up. "I'm Amelia!"

Fitz shook his head, lying on his back so he could hold his baby girl above him. "No. You're a munchkin, my munchkin."

Olivia laughed as she watched the pure joy on her daughters face that came with interactions with her daddy. The two had this indescribable bond which genuinely brought tears to her eyes. Fitz was better with Amelia than she ever could have asked for.

"Daddy no!"

Quickly Olivia reached for a phone, snapping a photo of the scene before her. The pair were absolutely beautiful together and there was no way she would allow this moment to pass without capturing it. The gleam in both of their eyes made her heart swell with joy. "You two are pretty cute." Olivia smirked, placing her phone away.

"I'm cuter." Amelia stated in a huff as Fitz placed her on her back. She wiggled until her back was pressed against Fitz's side as she now looked at her mother. Before Amelia even opened her mouth, Liv knew exactly what the little girl was going to say.

"Mommy—"

"No Emi."

"Pwease..." She pouted her lips as far as they would go, and pushed her eyes as wide as they would go. Olivia swore the little girl knew just how irresistible she was when she did that. "Pwease Mama..."

"Oh c'mon Livvie." Fitz shrugged, throwing on a t-shirt before getting comfortable on his side of the bed.

Olivia hated being put in this position between the two people she loved the most. There was absolutely no way she could say no to both of them. With a groan she ran her fingers through her hair, "ugh fine! But you sleep in your own bed tomorrow!"

"Yay!" The little girl screeched, the sugar in her system still evident, as she jumped in bed between her mother and father. She snuggled into Olivia and pressed her little head against Fitz's chest just as her mother slept. As Olivia turned off the bedside lamp she smiled contently, at her little family snuggled up in her queen sized bed. Those two were all she ever wanted in the world and more.

And together they fell asleep in each other's arms.

XXXXX

She woke up to a light tapping on her arm. The room was still dark, meaning it was still night. She opened her eyes to make out Fitz tapping her with cheesy smile. "What?" She whispered, slightly annoyed having been woken out of her sleep.

"I have to ask you something."

"What is it Fitz..."

"Are we ever gonna..."

"Huh?" She could tell he was doing that stupid wriggle of his eyebrows he did when he was trying to be inappropriate in the most appropriate way. "Did you really wake me up, with our daughter sleeping between us, to ask if we're going to have sex again?"

He chuckled as he heard the giggle beneath the irritation in her voice. That was one of the things he absolutely adored about her. No matter how stupid he was, or how badly he irritated her, she could never ever hide her love for him. He could hear it in her voice. He could see it in her smile. He could feel it in the way her gaze. She loved him, and he loved her.

"Well you make me sound like an idiot when you say it like that..."

"You are an idiot." She mumbled. "Go back to sleep."

"I will. Just answer the question."

Olivia's menstrual cycle prevented them from having sex on their wedding night. So instead the couple just spent the entire weekend catching up and reminiscing, basically falling in love with one another all over again. She told him of her pregnancy, and Amelia's birth. He told her of the war, and his roommate Berkley. They spent the entire weekend in bed at the hotel their parents had arranged for them cooped up in bed, talking from dusk till dawn again and again. Little Amelia spent the weekend with her nan and papa, loving every minute.

But when the weekend was up, reality set in. Olivia had work. Fitz had to get his life back together. And well, they had little girl to raise. So to say their sexual relationship had taken a bit of a back seat would have been an understatement. Of course it was great to have, hold and kiss one another, but truth be told they were both craving more with each and everyday. They hadn't been intimate with one another with the exception of Amelia's conception, and both were desperate for a physical reunion.

"Fitz leave me alone." She laughed softly, swatting him away.

"Just a yes or a no Liv, that's all I need, and I'll let you go back to bed I swear."

"Promise?"

"Promise?"

"Yes." She muttered. "Now goodnight." She didn't need to have her eyes open, she could feel him grinning from ear to ear like a cheshire cat.

"Patty cake, bakers man!" Amelia squealed in her stool. "Bake me a cake as fast as you can!"

"You heard her." Olivia teased, slyly pinching Fitz's bum while Amelia wasn't looking. "Hurry up with those pancakes."

He growled at Olivia playfully, lunging to teasingly chomp at her fingers. He then turned his attention back to the stove where he flipped 3 large pancakes with ease. Olivia was giving him lessons on just how she perfected her pancakes and he was getting better with each Monday. Every Monday as a new family tradition, pancakes were for breakfast, a little way to make Mornings a little brighter for everyone.

"Hurry daddy hurry!" Amelia fussed.

"Patience baby." Olivia giggled, pressing a kiss to her daughters head. She then swiftly made her way into the bathroom and got ready for work.

After a quick shower and moisturization of her skin, Olivia slipped into her pink scrubs. She swiped of a few coats of black mascara, applied some lip balm and brushed her eyebrows into place. Running her hands through her newly straightened hair, she grabbed a brush and pony before slicking it up into a nice high ponytail.

Her entrance back into the kitchen couldn't have been better timed as Fitz placed the final pancake at their cute and small glass dining table fit for 4. "Breakfast is served." He grinned.

"Mhm... CHOCOLATE!" Amelia cried out as she took her first bite.

"Chocolate?!" Olivia scowled from across the table. "FITZ?!"

He frowned. "What's wrong with chocolate? I thought I'd change things up."

"Sugar... At 7am. Great job. She'll be bouncing off the couch in 20 minutes."

"Oh crap." He said underneath his breath. It was as if the fact that sugar was present in chocolate had completely escaped his mind. "I'm sorry Liv."

"Don't say sorry to me, I'm going to work." She threw up her hands, got up from the table and wrapped her pancake in cling fling. "And I'm going to be late if I don't leave soon."

Amelia flew out of her chair, running over to Olivia to give her mommy a big hug. She smiled as Liv's strong arms lifted her up in the arm. "Bye mama. Love you to the moon and back."

"I love you too pumpkin." It hurt her each day to leave her little girl, but it hurt less knowing she would be with her Daddy every minute.

Taking time for himself, and to bond with his little girl Fitz opted to take a year off after coming back, to readjust to real life. Although being a househusband was harder than it seemed. Keeping up with Amelia's never ending energy was a struggle, but it was a struggle he would gladly endure and cherished tremendously.

Fitz walked over to his wife, kissing her lips softly as she held their baby. "I love you."

"Ditto." She blushed as Amelia crawled into her fathers arms. "I'll see you two later my loves, and please something other than frozen food for dinner Fitz!"

"No promises!" He yelled after her with a chuckle. "God he loved that woman.

XXXXX

"Oh god!" Tamara chuckled as Olivia filled her in on the comedy that was her sex life. The two nurses were in the lounge having found a 5 minute break before attending to set of new patients.

"I mean... I'm trying to play it cool and all, I'm trying to be ladylike Tam. I really am. But sometimes he just makes it so hard... Like today when Amelia was sleeping I crept in on his shower. Tam his body... It's more beautiful than I ever could have imagined."

"This is too funny. You two have a baby and yet, you have absolutely no sexual experience with each other at all. And you're married!"

"We kinda did it the wrong way round huh?"

"Just kinda..."

"Anyway. He kissed me this morning. He was in his towel all wet from the shower and I just melted." Olivia moaned at the thought. "I nearly dragged him back in there until I heard Amelia's little feet against the floor in the living room."

Tamara smiled. She simply adored the little girl. "And how does Fitz feel?"

"He asked me last night if we were ever going to have sex again as a joke." Liv chuckled. "But I can't help but actually wonder if we'll ever get the chance to."

"Of course you will. It will happen when the time is right. But use condoms this time, Amelia doesn't need another brother or sister yet." Tamara smiled. "I gotta go tho, I'll catch you at lunch!"

Olivia chuckled as her friend left, her words still ringing. A large part of her knew that she and Fitz were not in any position to have another baby. Fitz was attending counselling twice a week; once on his one and once with them as a family. It was rough at first, but she could tell it was doing him a world of good. He needed someone to talk to about all the horrors he experienced, and he certainly didn't want to frighten the love of his life. But, she did want another baby. In fact, she wanted two more. Two little boys who resembled Fitz as Amelia was practically her twin.

Rubbing her stomach slightly, she simply allowed herself to imagine having another baby. Amelia would be thrilled. Eli and Maya would probably have heart attacks and Big Jerry well, he was a wildcard. All Olivia knew was she wanted a bigger family.

But first, she wanted to have sex with her husband.

XXXXX

She smiled as they scent of real food filled her nostrils. Kicking off her white shoes, Olivia slipped into her slippers and headed into the kitchen to find her little family. Little Amelia was lying on the kitchen island counter colouring in a picture from her newest colouring book, whist Fitz was stirring pasta sauce.

"What's this?" She asked. First she kissed her little girl on the forehead before moving to her husband. She wrapped her arms around him from behind like he loved to do to, and kissed his nape.

"Dinner." He replied. "You said no frozen food."

"I did." She smiled as he turned around to cup her face.

"You did."

Looking up from her completed drawing, Amelia saw her parents making soft googley eyes at one another. One word and one word only came to mind which she opted to shout out. "KISS!"

Fitz chuckled, turning his head to face his daughter. "And what do you know about kissing little missy?"

Amelia blushed, knowing she had said far too much. Her tanned skin, the colour of sand burnt up with embarrassment as she giggled cutely. "KISS!" She chuckled again. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss mama daddy!"

"Mhm." Olivia pulled the collar of his shirt, pulling her husband into her. As he wrapped his arms around her body she pulled his head down to her eye level. "You heard her."

"KISS MAMA DADDY! Amelia was practically bouncing off the counter.

Giving his daughter a sly and knowing look he softly pressed his lips against his wife's. They were soft like always, and she teased her lips in between hers, kissing him back with the same passion he felt. Before they got carried away Olivia opted to pull away with their little girl staring right at them.

They both watched Amelia, awaiting her reaction.

"Yuck." She frowned sticking out her tongue. "Yuck! Yuck! Yuck!"

"YUCK?!" Fitz growled, grabbing her off the counter to which she squealed in delight. There was nothing more that made Amelia happy than being held in the arms of her loving parents. "You were the one who told us too!"

"It was yucky." Amelia giggled mischievously. "Mama you kissed Daddy on the lips."

"I sure did." Olivia grinned. "Got a problem?"

"That means you have cooties!" Amelia shook her head from side to side. "Yucky..."

Fitz chuckled. He would gladly cherish the days when kisses from boys meant cooties and were yucky. He would long onto these moments and never let them go.

"Yucky huh?" Olivia took a step closer so she was now inches from her daughter's face.

"You're yucky mama!" Amelia blurted out with a giggle.

"I'm yucky..." Olivia pretended to stroke her chin as if she were in deep, intelligent and complex thought. "So if I kiss you, will that make you yucky?"

Fitz grinned, liking where she was going with this. "I think so. I think in fact, if we both kiss her, she'll be extra yucky. More yucky than anyone in the entire world..."

Amelia gasped, her pearly eyes widening with each word leaving her father's mouth. "In the entire world?!"

"Yup." Fitz nodded his head. "Even a bath won't help."

Before Amelia could respond Olivia launched at her, smothering her in mountains of kisses. Fitz soon joined in on the fun as he attacked the other side of her face, kissing her all over.

"NO!" Amelia cried and laughed at the same time. With her little hands she tried to push them away but it failed miserably. Communicating telepathically after a few minutes of torture, Olivia and Fitz eased up on their little girl.

"That outta do it." Liv smirked, wiping her lips making a smacking sound.

Amelia who was clearly not the happiest camper, wiggled in Fitz's arms until he placed her on her feet on the ground. "I'm going to my room." Amelia sassed with folded arms.

Both Olivia and Fitz laughed at how absolutely adorable the little girl looked in this very moment. She had yet to further resemble Olivia any better. "Okay." Fitz shrugged. "Bye."

"Cya." Liv joined in. "No dinner or dessert for you."

Amelia's mouth dropped out and she began to wail in despair. "Dessert?! What dessert?!"

"Ice cream." Fitz replied, wrapping his arm around his wife's waist. "With sprinkles."

"SPRINKLES?! Never mind." Amelia rushed to her her mothers feet. "Love you mama, love you daddy." She giggled before skipping off to the living room with her book in hand.

Giving him a knowing look Olivia chuckled, shaking her head. "You realize we just bullied our daughter, right?"

"She loved it." He kissed her lips sweetly. "Right?"

"I think so." Olivia blushed, running her fingers across his chest. "Thanks for making dinner."

"Don't thank me until you've tasted it first." He teased.

She couldn't believe how fast they had fallen back into their familiar friendship. It was all smiles all the times. And with Amelia in the mix, Liv was sure their relationship would change drastically, after all they were parents now. But they managed to maintain their silly and fun friendship with the addition of warm kisses, longing looks, whispers of adoration and sweet cuddles at the end of the night. Their romantic relationship was too sweet and a part of Liv felt like they were courting despite being married.

"I can't believe you cooked..."

"Well I gotta keep my woman happy."

She batted her long, thick, black lashes at him teasingly. "Ouu, and am I your woman?"

He shook his head. "No."

"No?"

"You're my wife."

XXXXX

He crawled into bed next to her after successfully putting Amelia down for bed. They'd worked out a routine, Olivia got her ready in the morning, and Fitz put her down for bed.

"37 minutes." Olivia smiled. "You're getting better."

"It's easier when she doesn't have sugar." Placing his hand on her soft and flat tummy he smiled up at his remarkably beautiful wife. "Hi you."

"Hi." She blushed at the mysterious look he was giving her. She couldn't quite place it, but there was a certain glimmer in his eyes. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Like what?"

"All weird..."

"Weird?" He rolled over so he was now hovering overtop her. She immediately inhaled sharply, her nipples tightening instantly. "How am I being weird?" He titled his head down and pecked her lips.

"I don't know." She mumbled incoherently. God he was simply looking down on her and she was already losing her mind. As he tilted his head down a second time she expected to feel the softness of his lips on hers. But when she felt his lips against the skin of her neck, she moaned louder than he'd expected.

He pulled back, smug, aroused and slightly curious. "How long has it been?"

She answered softly, stroking his curly brown hair. "Amelia." Olivia didn't know what he could think of that, but she couldn't imagine having sex with anyone else after having him. She knew that no one on the face of the earth would be able to do the things he did to her. No one on the face of the earth would be able to make her feel the way he did. "When... When was the last time for you?" Her voice was shaky with nerves as she asked.

"Amelia." He smiled breathlessly with a smile. There was no way he could ever have sex with anyone else, not after he'd experienced earth shattering love making with a woman he loved since kindergarten.

She blushed, beaming up at him. Her heart soared knowing the last time he had sex, they lasted time he had been inside a woman, was with her. It meant even more knowing that it was that night the two of them made their precious baby girl.

"I love you Livvie." He pressed his forehead against hers. "You and that little rascal are all I have, and you're all I ever want. I'm all yours, always."

"Ditto." She whispered in his ear before placing a soft kiss there. Biting her lip she watched as they turned bright red like cherry tomatoes.

"Do you love me baby?"

"More than I've ever loved anyone." She admitted honestly. "I can't breathe without you Fitz... Now that you're here I feel like... like..."

"Life can finally start." He grinned cutting her off. "Life with the woman I love, and my daughter I adore." He watched as she simply looked up at him with nothing but pure happiness in her eyes. "You're so fucking perfect Liv."

"Don't ever leave me again." She whispered. Although she knew logically, he was done with the military, it was still a lingering fear in her mind. After all she had gone through her pregnancy and raising Amelia for almost 3 years on her own.

"Never." He promised, sitting up but still nestled in between her legs, so he softly stroked her thighs.

"Hm..." Her voice drifted off softly as she allowed the feeling of his hands on her skin to overtake her.

"Livvie?" He asked, his voice quaking with lust and desire.

"Yeah baby?"

"Can I taste you?" He asked with a certain shyness which nearly caused her to die of ecstasy. She couldn't understand how he could be so unbelievably sexy and yet so sweet and cute at the same time.

"Fitz I—"

"Please." He kissed her knee.

Oral sex was never something she'd experienced, but she wanted it with him. She wanted the moon and the stars with him. She wanted everything in the universe with him.

She nodded softly, opening her legs further for him. He acknowledged her gesture permission, reaching up her silk black nightdress and pulled down her panties. He pulled them down till they reached her knees then disposed of them completely, tossing them across the room.

She suddenly felt the need to speak up on her lack of experience. "Fitz no one's ever done this to me."

"Livvie shut that beautiful mouth." He commanded her.

She was soaked, more aroused and ready for him than any woman he'd ever seen. His Livvie was soft, warm and needing for his touch, and he would give it to her. He would always give it to her.

Her legs shook around his head as he feasted on her sensitive flesh. She was the sweetest woman he'd ever had the pleasure of tasting, and he would take full advantage of this each and every day. He flicked his touch against her swollen nub and groaned as her desperate moans filled the room. Her hungry fingers were in his hair as she pulled and tugged at his curls.

"God baby..." She whimpered as he continued to make her world shake.

Her eyes closed shut, her mouth hanging open. She nearly shot out of her skin as she felt him push two of his thick fingers inside of her. Fitz grinned happily against her soaked warmth as she began to quiver around him. He knew she was on the verge of breaking apart when her breathing became ragged, short and shallow. She came moments later, stuttering his name amongst other incoherent noises. He continued to suck at her through her orgasm, only crawling up her body after he was sure her orgasm had subsided.

"Hi." He breathed, pushing a strand of hair off her face.

"Hi." She whispered, smiling harder than she'd ever in her life.

"I love you."

"No, I love you."
