I know i should update You belong to me but i still had this and after watching the new episode I knew I had to work on this story first. Once again it will be Olicity, that is the only pairing that makes sense in my head.
I would love to read your reviews it makes the writing easier and faster :)
And while you wait for a new chapter check out my other story "Willi harry me" A funny Olicity one-shot
Disclaimer: I don't own Arrow as much as i wish it was different.
Background: Oliver and Sara are dating for 3 years. Engaged for 2 but neither Oliver nor Sara seemed to want to take the finale step. The engagement was rather for the public than for them.
Felicity is still the IT-Girl of the group. After she took a bullet for Sara, both formed a weird kind of friendship. There were some close calls over the time but they all came out stronger.
But what happens when Felicity puts her foot down and leaves the group to have a "normal" life with a husband, maybe kids and a house with white picked fence. She wants to be someones girl.
She was staring at her half empty coffee cup, waiting for Sara to join her at her booth at Belly Burger. She tried hard not to think about her life. Yesterday she broke up with Brody. A nice guy she met at a Bagel shop a few month ago. She liked him but once again it didn't work out. A guy could only take so many rain checks on dates. Felicity could never tell her dates the truth, why she didn't make it. She wished she could tell them that she had to safe the city. That she was working for the Arrow. Instead she had to come up with lies over and over. There was a limit to family emergencies. She was sick of it.
She wants a life outside of Team Arrow. With envy she watches the family a few booth ahead, they look so happy. Her stomach clenched thinking about never being able to have that, not with the work she did and not with her heart set on a guy that she will never get. She tried to get passed it, she tried not compare her dates to him, it never worked.
When Sara slid into the booth, Felicity tried to turn on her happy smile but she knew from the look on Saras face that she was failing.
"What's up Licity ? "
"I think I am going to have a baby!" Felicity blurred out.
Sara looked at her in mild shock and her voice was louder as normal "What? Who's the father? I thought you and Brody never got so far?"
" I'm not technical pregnant! Calm down. When I say baby I don't mean baby, baby. I want a family. I don't want to be alone anymore. A baby is something that I can take care of, that needs me, that loves me. A baby is the metaphor of what is missing in my life. I want a family, a partner someone I can share my life with. You have Oliver, Diggle has Layla, Thea has Roy. What do I have? I have my computers. They just need me for updates." jabbered Felicity. She doesn't know where this all comes from but she knows deep down it was time for her to take her life in her own hands and to change some parts of it. She was aware that it would be the hardest thing she ever had to do in her life.
"Felicity, you have us. We are your family! That is what you always tell us. " Sara felt sad for Felicity. She wished that she could help her. They had a rough start 3 years ago but somehow they became best friends and no one wants to see a friend so sad.
" You might be my family but at the end of the night I go home alone." tears started to fill Felicity's eyes.
" You will find the one, Licity. Mr. Perfect is out there and waiting for you. You just haven't met him yet "
Felicitys heart arched at those words because she met Mr. Perfect. She knows that he is out there, she sees him every day and every day she is reminded of the fact that he doesn't see her at least not like she wanted him to see her. She was done waiting for him.
" I am done waiting, I am done with dating the wrong guys and hurting them because I can't give them that what they deserve " She couldn't give them her heart because years ago she had given it away and she never got it back.
"What does all of this mean?" Sara had a bad feeling. She saw how Felicity build a wall around her and her guts told her something big was about to happen but she wasn't sure what it will be.
" I don't know. I'm only emotional today. I better go home. Good night Sara." with that she smiled at Sara and left her behind.
