THE PAIN THAT I'M USED TO.

An OLICITY fic


Felicity waited impatiently in the waiting room of the hospital. She was waiting for the doctor. Her heart almost jumped up, when she heard the tapping of heels. When the doctor came into view, Felicity's hands shook tremendously. With a huge lump in her throat, she sat in her chair and waited. The doctor was speaking with Oliver's mother and his sister. As she watched the three women, her eyes had welled up without her accord.

At one point Moira and Thea were sobbing uncontrollably. It was then, when Felicity knew that it was bad- very bad. Finally she saw the doctor and Moira walk away, so Felicity got up and took a seat next to Thea.

"Hey." She said and grabbed Thea's hand.

As the tears ran down Thea's face, she looked up at Felicity. Her sobs echoed in the room, as Felicity pulled her in a tight embrace. After a few minutes, Felicity couldn't take it anymore. She had to know what the doctor told Thea.

"How bad is it, Thea?" Felicity asked, the fear in her voice evident and clear.

She was terrified of her answer, but her heart needed to know. She had to know!

Thea wasn't able to answer her just yet... she began to sob loudly again, while she held onto Felicity.

"Thea, please… please tell me!" Felicity begged, her voice filled with desperation.

Thea shook her head, trying to form a coherent sentence, but she kept failing miserably.

"Thea, if you don't tell me now, I will personally go to his room now!" Felicity threatened, the glint in her eyes scaring the hell out of Thea.

She knew she meant it, so with all the strength in her, Thea said.

"Oliver… Oliver is… he is in surgery now. The accident was very bad… there is a possibility that he wo…won't be able to… to ever walk again."

As those words reached Felicity's ears, she felt a gnawing and unbearable pain in her heart. As the tears spilled from her very eyes, Felicity thought of Oliver.

Oliver in a wheel chair? Why? Why was fate so cruel to him? Hasn't he been through enough? Hasn't he struggled and suffered enough for one lifetime? Why? Why?!
