The light shining through the window roused Tommy from his sleep. Cracking one eye he found the curtains pulled back. He tried to remember if he closed them before falling into bed with his girlfriend the night before. Tommy let out a small grunt and rolled over, reaching for said girlfriend only to be met with cold sheets. He lifted his head to look around the room. Sounds coming from the kitchen told him exactly where she was.
"Crap." She said as he rounded the corner to the kitchen. His girlfriend was in the middle of turning off the stove as smoke rose from the pan. He watched as she ran from the stove to the sink throwing the pan in and turning the water on.
"It is well known that you cannot cook." He said bringing her attention to him for the first time that morning. "And yet you still try."
She smirked at him. Her hair was piled on top of her head and only had his shirts from yesterday on. Tommy always thought she looked the most beautiful first thing in the morning. Face scrubbed of makeup and her glasses perched on her nose. No one else got to see her like this and it made him feel like the luckiest guy in the world.
"Try and try again." She laughed, the best sound in the world to him. "One of these days I am going to make you something edible."
Smiling, Tommy walked over to her. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her back against his chest. He leaned forward and began placing gentle kisses to the side of her neck. "We finally have a day off together and you want to try and poison me?" He said laughing when she jokingly elbowed him in the stomach. "Felicity." He groaned. "Come back to bed."
"Let me just make some coffee. You want a cup?" She asked abandoning the pan in the sick and moving to the coffee maker. Most of the time the machine was on a timer due to Felicity's caffeine addiction but neither of them were planning on getting up early this morning. This was the first weekend in almost a month where they didn't have a meeting or conference call.
"Yeah, how about I put some clothes on and go down to the bakery for some breakfast." Tommy grabbed her hand, pulling her back to him. "Good morning by the way." He said placing a lingering kiss on her lips.
"Good morning." She smiled leaning further into him. "Breakfast sounds amazing right now."
"I'll be back." He said turning back to the bedroom. He was halfway there when his cell phone started going off.
"If that's the office just ignore it." Felicity yelled over her shoulder.
Tommy grabbed his phone off the coffee table as he passed the couch. "It's Thea." He said turning back to her.
"Thea? When was the last time you talked to her?"
"When I drove her home from that club a few weeks ago. She was angry and said she was never going to talk to me again." He frowned down at his phone for a brief moment before answering it. "Thea? Is everything ok?...Hold on you have to slow down…who is?...What are you talking about?...When?"
"Tommy what's going on?" Felicity asked concerned as she entered the living room. Worry for the younger girl was all over her face.
He reached for her as he listened to Thea on the other end of the phone. Gripping her arm like a lifeline and making the worry on her face deepen. "Alright Thea. Thanks for letting me know. I'll call you later, ok? Keep me updated." He hung up the phone still Gripping Felicity's arm for support.
"Tommy what's wrong? What did Thea say?"
"He's alive." He whispered, still staring at the phone.
"Who's alive?" She ducked her head slightly to force him to look at her face.
"Oliver." He said finally looking at her. "They found him."
~!~!~!~!~
It had been three days since Tommy had first gotten the call from Thea. Three days since he learned that his presumed dead best friend was actually alive and found on a deserted island in the middle of the North China Sea. Today was the day that Oliver was coming home. After being flown home from China, he had stayed overnight for observation at Starling General. Moira had been the only one to see him but had promised a family dinner once he came home.
"I'm just finishing up a few things and I'll be right over." Felicity said. He was just leaving their apartment and had called her to see about picking her up before heading to the Queens for dinner.
"I can just pick you up on the way."
"No. I have some papers that I have to go over before the end of the day. This way you can have some time with Oliver before I get there." He could hear her moving around the office over the phone. He knew there was no way he would be able to convince her to leave work early. But that didn't mean that he wasn't going to try.
Tommy wanted Felicity there when he saw Oliver for the first time. Oliver had been his best friend since childhood, but Tommy was nervous to see him again after thinking he was dead for five years. So much had happened in the last few years for both of them. Tommy wasn't sure if the friendship they had before would last.
"Text me when you leave."
"Of course."
Tommy stopped right outside the car. "I love you."
"I love you too." He could almost hear her smile over the phone. "I'll be there in time for dinner."
Tommy smiled as he hung up and climbed into the car
~!~!~!~
Raisa greeted him as he walked through the front door. Tommy had never bothered knocking. He grew up in this house more than he did his own. Kissing her cheek, Raisa wordlessly motioned for him to head into the lounge where he assumed everyone else was. Though the open doorway, Tommy could see Moira and Thea sitting on one of the couches and a man standing by the mantel looking at the old pictures placed there.
"What did I tell you? Yachts suck." He laughed as the man turned around. Oliver looked older then he remembered. His best friend was never lanky but he had obviously gained muscle mass during his time away. Tommy wasn't expecting him to come back looking weak and frail but he defiantly wasn't expecting a prized fighter.
"Tommy Merlyn." Oliver's voice was a couple octaves lower then he remembered but the face was the same. The long wild hair he left with was replaced with a buzz cut a stubble along his jaw.
For the longest time, Tommy didn't want to believe that Oliver was dead. Even going so far as to travel to Hong Kong chasing a lead from Oliver's email. The two friends stepped toward each other. Slight hesitation in both of their eyes before they hugged. "I missed you, buddy."
"Missed you too." Oliver said as they pulled away.
"Moira, Thea." Tommy greeted them with a kiss on the cheek to Moira and a hug to Thea.
"Where's Felicity?" Thea asked as they pulled away from each other.
Oliver tilted his head questioningly and looked from him to his sister and back.
"She should be arriving shortly. She left the office just before I got here." He spoke to Thea. "Felicity is my girlfriend." He said turning back to Oliver. "I think you met her a couple times before…" He waved his hand around trying to find the right word for the situation but came up empty. Looks of pity flashed across Moira and Thea's faces, eyes directed at Oliver.
"Before I was stranded on a deserted island." Oliver stated his eyes trained on Tommy, willing him to continue.
"Right, exactly. Anyway, we were just friends back then." Tommy finished moving away from the topic of the island.
"The goth girl?" Oliver asked.
Thea burst out laughing. "Felicity was goth? Oh I need to see pictures of that."
"Yes, she looked different back then but she is the same person that she has always been. Just blonder." He added with a smirk. Felicity never spoke much about her past to anyone besides him. He didn't want Thea to ask about what happened in college to make her change her style because he knew on some level Felicity wasn't over it yet. "I think you'll like her Ollie."
"If she was able to tame you I have no doubt about it." Oliver said, clapping his hand on Tommy's shoulder.
The sound of the front door closing directed everyone's attention to the entrance to the room. "Hello? Tommy?" A small voice called out. No matter how many times she had been in the Queen Mansion, Felicity never felt fully comfortable just walking in and around the place.
"Hey. We're in here." Tommy walked to the edge of the living room just as Felicity appeared around the corner. A brief look of relief flashed across her face before she tilted her head up for a brief kiss from him. "You made it just in time."
"Oh, I didn't realize everyone was going to be in here." She said taking a look around at the room full of people. "I was hoping to be able to run to the bathroom quick to freshen up. Not that I'm trying to impress anyone I've been with Tommy for years and known everyone else for almost as long. It's just that I've been in the server room all day and despite the air conditioning running at full blast the amount of heat they kick out makes me sweat more than when me and Tommy…" Felicity's eyes went wide as she realized what she was saying. Tommy and Thea were looking at her with amusement; Walter and Moira with disinterest, as if they had heard her wild tangents before. But she couldn't read Oliver. There was amusement and curiosity in his eyes but he face was rigid and showed no emotion.
Felicity closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened them, she turned directly toward Oliver. "I'm sorry you had to hear that. It has been a very long day. Hi, I'm Felicity Smoak, Tommy's girlfriend." She said, holding out her hand for him to shake.
"Oliver Queen." He said with a small smile.
"I know. Tommy has told me all about you. And I've seen you all over the news. Since you were found and before when you were dead. But you're not dead. Your father is-oh my god why can I not stop talking?" Her eyes went wide again and she turned her back on everyone in the room. Mortified at what she had just said.
"As you can see, Felicity tends to babble." Tommy said walking over to her. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders from behind. "Take a breath." He bent down to whisper in her ear. "It's ok." He kissed her cheek and spun her around.
"I'm sorry." Felicity had her eyes cast down, unable to look at anyone's face.
Suddenly Oliver let out a soft chuckle. "You were right Tommy. I do like her."
Smiling down at his girlfriend, Tommy wrapped an arm around her waist resting his hand on her opposite hip. "Felicity is one of a kind." He said as he kissed her temple.
"Excuse me. Dinner is ready." Raisa said poking her head into the room.
~!~!~!~!~
No one said anything as they entered the dining room. Oliver sat at the head of the table with Tommy and his mother on either side of him. Felicity and Thea sat next to Tommy, while Walter sat in the seat next to Moira.
"Ok. What else did you miss? Super bowl winners…Giants, Steelers, Saints, Packers, Giants again. A black president, that's new. Oh, and Lost, They were all dead…I think." Tommy said turning to Felicity as he added that last part.
"Tommy I have a genius IQ and I couldn't figure that show out." She joked placing her hand on top of his on the table.
"A genius IQ?" Oliver spoke up. "What do you do, Felicity?"
"I work at Queen Consolidated actually." She said proudly.
"Felicity is the head of our IT Department." Walter said, a proud look on his face. "We hired her right out of MIT and she has shown amazing potential at the company. I daresay she is on the short list for the head of the new Applied Sciences division we're planning."
Felicity ducked her head again. "Walter…"
"What was it like there?" Thea asked. Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at her. They had all been avoiding asking Oliver direct questions about the island and his father.
"Cold." Was all Oliver said in reply.
After a few more moments of tension, Tommy spoke up again. "Tomorrow, you and me, we're doing the city. You've got a lot to catch up on."
Oliver nodded. "Good. Then I was hoping to swing by the office." He smiled softly at Raisa as she walked into the room.
"Well, there's plenty of time for that." Walter said. "Queen Consolidated isn't going anywhere."
Before anyone could say anything else, Raisa tripped as she turned to leave the room. Still sitting Oliver reached out and caught her before she could hit the ground.
"Oh, I am so sorry, Mr. Oliver." She said in a gentle tone placing her hand on his shoulder.
"It's no worry." He responded in Russian. Everyone besides Felicity and Walter, looked at him stunned. Oliver could barely pass an English class before he had disappeared let alone be able to speak another language.
"Dude, you speak Russian?" Tommy asked.
Walter spoke up before Oliver had the chance to speak. "I didn't realize you took Russian at college, Oliver."
"I didn't realize you wanted to sleep with my mother, Walter." Oliver said calmly, turning to face the man in question. Moira opens her mouth to say something to Oliver but closed it and turned to look at her daughter.
"I didn't say anything." Thea held her hands in the air in defense.
"She didn't have to." Oliver said in her defense.
Moira hung her head slightly, reaching to grab Walter's hand. "Oliver…" She began, taking a deep breath. "Walter and I are married, and I don't want to think that either one of us did anything to disrespect your father."
"We both believed that Robert, like you was…uh….well…gone." He finished, not entirely sure what to say.
"It's fine." Oliver waved it off. "May I be excuses?" He asked standing up. He wasn't giving anyone room to argue with him as he made to move around the table.
"Hey don't forget about tomorrow, buddy."
Oliver nodded toward his best friend but stopped behind Felicity's chair. "It was nice to officially meet you again Felicity. Maybe this time we can get to know each other better."
"Of course." She nodded as he walked out of the room, leaving the tension behind him.
~!~!~!~!~
"Well that could have gone better." Tommy said walking through the front door of their apartment. They had to take separate cars home and Felicity had arrived back only minutes before her boyfriend.
"It was his first day back around everyone." She called from their bedroom. Tommy followed her voice as she continued. "It is going to take some time for everyone to get used to having Oliver around again. Just like you had to get used to him being gone in the first place." By the time she finished, he was leaning against the door jamb watching her.
Felicity had a night routine that Tommy always marveled at watching. From the way she folded and sorted the laundry as she changed to the careful way she took off her makeup and washed her face. It was a simple process but Tommy had never seen anyone take so much care in what they did before he met her.
She was in the process of taking out her earrings when she noticed him standing behind her in the mirror. Catching her eye he pushed himself off the wood and walked toward her. "You know, you are more than welcome to join us tomorrow around the city." He said placing his hands on her shoulders.
"No." She said firmly. "This is your chance for some alone time with Oliver. Plus I have to work anyway." She turned and made her way to her side of the bed.
"Yes. But I want the two of you to be able to get to know each other. I want my two best friends to get along and be friends." He said pulling off his shirt.
Felicity paused for a moment watching as he changed before climbing into bed. "And I'm sure we will but right now it's about you reconnecting with your old friend. He just got back Tommy. You can't be afraid to be alone with him."
Tommy stepped to the side of the bed and looked down at her. He knew she was right but he just wasn't sure how to deal with what he was feeling in that moment. "I know. It's just…" He paused and ran a hand over his face. Tommy dropped down on the bed next to her, laying his arm across her legs. "So much has happened since he got on that boat. To both of us. I don't know how to act around him anymore."
"So just be yourself." She said simply. "You two have been friends forever. You're going to get passed this you just have to be willing to give it a chance."
"I love you." He said turning his head toward her.
"I love you too." She said leaning down to kiss him.
~!~!~!~!~
Felicity had just gotten out of a meeting when her assistant told her about the messages from Moira. Shortly after Felicity had left for her lunch meeting, Tommy and Oliver had been kidnapped off the street outside the CNRI building. Felicity didn't even want to think about why they had been doing there. After she got out of her lunch meeting, she was in and out of a few other meeting with throughout the bu8lding. By the time she made it back to her office it was hours later and there was a second message from Moira saying the boys had been found and we're on their way back to the mansion to meet with the police. As soon as Felicity got the message, she was in her car and driving toward the Queen Mansion.
Police cars and an ambulance met Felicity when she pulled into the Queen's driveway. Just barely turning the car off, Felicity bolted from the car and ran up the steps. She had never been comfortable just walking in other the Queen Mansion but right now all she could think about was getting to Tommy.
"Tommy?" She yelled as she walked through the foyer. She could easily see the officers in the sitting room and knew that she was close. "Tommy?" She asked again entering the room. He was already on his feet looking at her. Felicity stared at him for a moment, trying to make sure he was really in front of her. Different scenarios ran through her head on her way there from Moira saying that she was wrong and the boys hadn't been found to finding out Tommy had been killed. Shaking her head and tears filling her eyes, Felicity ran to him. His arms automatically opened for her and be caught her easily as she launched herself into his arms, wrapping hers around his shoulders. She pressed herself close to him, feeling her grip her tighter every second.
"I'm ok." He whispered into her hair.
"I'm sorry I wasn't hear sooner." She mumbled, tears falling freely now, soaking his neck and shirt. "You were kidnapped and I was in a meeting as if nothing was wrong. What if something had happened to you? I never would have known. I would have just gone on with my day as if nothing was wrong when really my whole world would have been falling apart-"
"Felicity take a breath." Tommy said. He slowly moved them away from the Queen's and the officers. Seeing Felicity had calmed him in a way he hadn't felt in years. Probably since before his mother was killed. He didn't want to keep talking with the police. All he wanted now was to go home with his girlfriend and not leave their apartment for a day or two. Carefully, he pulled away from her so that he could see her face. "I'm ok. Everything is going to be fine."
She scoffed. "Here you are comforting me when you were the one who was just kidnapped." She moved her hands down along his chest and wrapped them around his waist under his jacket. Her eyes skimmed over him looking for any sign of serious injury.
He laughed softly at her. "Well, you can comfort me later." He joked, his hands lowing to grasp her hips.
"You have a one track mind Tommy Merlyn." Tommy smiled and bent his head to place a lingering kiss on her lips.
"Merlyn!" A shout from behind them broke the couple apart. Tommy turned his head toward the officer who spoke. Felicity didn't look at the others that were in the room as she entered. She had been strictly focused on Tommy. Now she could see that all the Queens and Walter were there as well as two SCPD detectives who were sitting in front of Oliver by the couch. "What about you?" One of the detectives she recognized as Quentin Lance. He had never liked Tommy but hated Oliver for what he did to his daughters. "You see the hood guy?" He asked, holding up a rough sketch of a guy with a hood covering his eyes. The sketch didn't have many details to it.
"I saw…just movement. Everything blurry. I was kind of out of it." Tommy said. Felicity looked up at him, wondering what exactly happened to them while they were gone.
"Yeah." The detective said sarcastically. He didn't believe a word of what the two were saying and he wasn't trying to hide his disdain for being in the Queen Mansion. "It's funny, isn't it? One day back, and already somebody's gunning for you. Aren't you popular?"
"Were you able to identify the men?" Moira spoke up from her spot by the mantle with Walter.
"Scrubbed identities, untraceable weapons. These were pros." Lances partner answered.
"Yeah. Well, they probably figured you'd pay a king's ransom to get your boy back or a Queen's ransom, as it were. After all, a parent would do anything to keep their child safe." Lance turned his glare from Moira to Oliver, not being subtle about the real meaning behind his words.
"I don't fine your tone appropriate, Detective." Moira took a few steps toward him.
Walter walked up behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "If Oliver can think of anything else, he'll be in touch. Thank you, gentlemen, for coming."
Lance chuckled, "Your luck never seems to run out does it?" Lance turned on his heal and stalked out of the house.
Felicity's grip on Tommy tightened and she rested her head on his chest. The Queen family talked briefly around them, but all Felicity could focus on what the feel of Tommy's arms around her and the light kisses he placed on the top of her head. "Let's go home." He whispered in her ear.
~!~!~!~!~
They ended up having to take two cars home but as soon as they arrived back at the apartment, they fell into bed together, arms wrapped around each other. Neither one had bothered to change, only making it as far as kicking their shoes into the corner of the room and Tommy's jacket being thrown somewhere in the living room.
Tucking her head under his chin, Tommy sighed. "You want to know the last thing that went through my mind right before I passed out?"
Felicity closed her eyes and shifted closer to him. "That you wanted to go out in one last big hoorah?" She said smiling.
He chuckled, pulling her hair free from the hairband. "Yes that would be a way to go. But no." He paused, burying his hand in her hair. "My last thought was that I was never going to see you again."
"Tommy." She said pulling away from him, leaning next to him on one elbow.
"That I was never going to get to hold you again. Never get the chance to say I love you again. Kiss you, wake up next to you, to see you give me that smile that lights up a room and makes me feel like everything is going to be ok." He sat up. Reaching out to grab one of her hands, he held it close to him.
"What are you doing, Tommy?" They sat facing each other on the bed. The only contact between them was the hand Tommy still held.
"I'm trying to tell you that you're it for me Felicity. If I had died today my biggest regret would have been to not have told you this sooner." He reached for her other hand. "I'm in love with you Felicity Smoak. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
"Tommy, please." She pleaded with him. The panic was clear on her face. She wasn't ready for what he was asking. Today was not the day for this. Tommy had just been kidnapped earlier that day. His emotions were running wild and in a few days they would move on and forget this ever happened. "Please…don't…"
Tommy smiled at her. "It's all true. I should have told you years ago. I knew I loved you not long after we met. I knew I was in love with you after just a month of dating. I was ready to ask you to marry me after one year because I knew that I was never going to be able to live without you."
The panic in Felicity grew. As Tommy kept talking all she could think about was getting away and ending the conversation right then and there. She squirmed and tried to pull her hands back from him.
"Felicity stop." His grip tightened on hers. "I know this is freaking you out. I know your just waiting for the day when I'm just going to walk away from you. From the life we have together. But I am not your father. I'm not Cooper or any of the others who left you. I wouldn't be able to walk away from you because you are everything to me Felicity Smoak." He paused. The look in his eyes willing her to believe what he was saying.
The blonde stared at him. Eyes searching his face for any sign that this wasn't real. That what he was saying wasn't true. But she couldn't find anything. Felicity could read Tommy better than anyone and knew when he was lying.
"This is not a proposal." He said after a moment. "Today is not the day for that. You deserve something special and now is not the right time. But this is a promise that I will be getting down on one knee and one day you will wear my ring and take my last name. We're going to spend the rest of our lives together. I love you."
Felicity smiled at him. It still amazed her sometimes how well he knew her. "I love you too. You're everything to me Tommy." She said leaning forward to place a kiss on his lips. They both smiled into the kiss as he pushed her onto her back deepening it.
~!~!~!~!~
Felicity could feel the pounding of the club music before she even entered. She had never felt completely comfortable in the large crowd but she had been to plenty of clubs with Tommy over the years to not look awkward anymore. She was here for Oliver tonight. Tommy had been looking forward to this party since he heard Oliver was coming home.
Tommy waved from his spot by the stage when he saw her walk in. They had agreed to meet at the club so that Tommy could get there early to set up. Her boyfriend knew she wasn't comfortable by herself and always stayed by her side when they went out. Felicity made a beeline for Tommy and was quickly wrapped in his arms.
"You look beautiful." He said in her ear. He had to practically yell to be heard over the music. Felicity smiled up at him, kissing him softly in response. They stayed like that, arms wrapped around each other, just watching the mass of people dance before them. They could feel the moment that Oliver entered the club. The energy lifted and the excitement of the prodigals sons return moved through the crowd.
"Go." Felicity yelled over the music when Oliver noticed them. "I'll be right here when you're done." He kissed her before motioning to Oliver and moving to the stage. Felicity watched with pride as the man she loved worked the crowd into a frenzy. Tommy knew exactly what to say to get the crowd going. She laughed when Oliver yelled out something stupid about tequila and the boys did a shot, Tommy winking at her right before he threw his head back.
When the music started again, Tommy pulled Felicity up on stage and wrapped his arm around her shoulders, tucking her into his side tightly. Felicity watched the crowd as Tommy did his wingman thing for Oliver, stating that he had been celibate for five years and apparently it was Tommy's job now to get him laid. Felicity saw Thea dancing and so did Oliver if his quick departure was any indication.
"Want to dance?" Tommy asked. Neither of them danced much but made exceptions for special occasions. His best friends back from the dead party seemed like a good one. She nodded and laughed as Tommy pulled her into the crowd by both hands, the two disappearing into the mass of moving bodies.
~!~!~!~!~
"Starling City police!" The couple was sitting at the bar getting a couple drinks when the music cut and they heard the voice cut across the crowd. "The party's over, kids." Tommy grabbed her hand and followed the sound of the voice. As the host of the party he needed to see what was going on. "Oh, Mr. Merlyn." Detective Lance said as the two emerged from the crowd. "Imagine my shock at finding you here. Did you roofie anyone special tonight, huh?" Lance sneered, his eyes shifting to Felicity for a few moments before moving back to Tommy.
Felicity gripped Tommy's hand tightly. Lance never liked Tommy due to his association with Oliver before he went missing but Tommy had never gone as far as drugging a woman to get her to sleep with him. Lance seemed to try to place him in the stereotypical rich boy category which could be farther from the truth. Oliver stepping out from the side of the crowd and addressing Lance gave her the chance to pull her boyfriend's attention to her.
"Hey." She said cupping his face and forcing him to look at her. "Don't listen to him. He's just upset and taking it out on you."
Tommy nodded but their attention was drawn back to the police when Lance's partner was holding him back from trying to attack Oliver.
"It's way too quiet in here!" Oliver yelled as the detectives left. "This is a party!" The crowd cheered and the music started again. Tommy turned back to Oliver and spoke with him briefly before the three headed to the bar.
~!~!~!~!~
"That was some party." Felicity said as they entered the apartment. She kicked off her shoes and tossed her purse onto the table before sinking into the couch. They had stayed at the party till the last party goers had left to make sure that everything went ok. Oliver had left a couple hours after the incident with the police saying that he still wasn't used to being around this many people and needed to leave.
"We haven't had a night out like that in a while now." Tommy said sinking beside her. He had unbuttoned the top few buttons on his shirt and rolled up his sleeves halfway. She loved this look on him.
"I work all the time and you have been helping your dad with Merlyn Global." She said leaning into his side, sighing when his arm wrapped around her.
Tommy ran a hand over his face and pulled her in closer. "You know he still doesn't understand why you chose to work at Queen Consolidated instead of Merlyn Global."
"I didn't want to be known as the girl sleeping with the CEOs son."
"But you are the girl sleeping with the CEOs son."
"I never would have made it this far at Merlyn Global. I would never be taken seriously for my work and I wanted to make my way to the top on my own. Not because I have an in with the family."
"You know the Queens."
"It's a different situation and you know it."
"I don't know if I want to work with my father anymore." He said suddenly.
Felicity sat up and looked at him. "What brought this on? I thought you were happy there?"
"I was. I am. I just don't know if I can see myself working there for the rest of my life."
She took one of his hands into hers and held it in her lap. "Tommy, I want you to be happy. If that means working at your family's company then so be it. Or if that means going out and finding something that you love to do then you can do that too. Whatever you want I'm going to be right here next to you supporting you."
Tommy looks at her with admiration and love. "I always knew you would but I was still a little nervous to tell you. I love you."
"I love you too." She said returning to her spot curled into his side. "I'm so tired right now."
"Come on the night is still young! I'm sure there is something fun we can do." He joked running his hand down her side suggestively, his hand landing on the upper part of her thigh fingers just brushing over his backside.
"Only if you do all the work. I'm exhausted." She yawned.
Felicity was barely able to register Tommy moving from under her when he lifted her up and began carrying her to the bedroom. "I have no problem with that. You just lay back and enjoy."
The sound of Felicity's laugh echoed throughout the room as she threw her arms around his neck and he shut the bedroom door behind them.
~!~!~!~!~
