Chapter 1

I was always in love with him since the first day I meet him. My father forgot about me once again so I went to his company, that's when I first met Oliver Queen. He was waiting for his father to get out of a meeting with mines. He was talking to Erick; dad's assistant before he turns his head and saw her.

"Oliver Queen and you are?"

"Layla Thorn," a smile started to form on his face.

"Layla, it's nice to meet you."

"And you as well," she smiles back at him. When the father came out they smile together.

"Oliver, Layla it's good that you met," Mr. Queen said.

"Layla, Oliver are you two getting along."

"Yes"

"Were becoming fast friends," she said.

"Good, then we have something to tell you," Erik said.

"Erik, I don't think that now is the time…"

"Say hello to your fiancé"

"Huh?"

"You two will get married in the future"

At first I was confused. I like Oliver of course he had a certain charm with him. But I didn't like how my life was being planned out without my say so. So for the first few months I didn't speak to Oliver or my father, but that just made him talk to me more than my father changes my school I started, to go to the same school as Oliver. I was alone all by myself. All of my friends were back at my old school. Then my first friend Tommy came and ask her to hang out with him. Of course he was friends with Oliver but that wasn't a huge deal. Over time I didn't mind that I was hanging out with Oliver. We soon became the three musketeers. Once was not seen without the other two. It wasn't until they were thirteen years old and Tommy was throwing a party while his dad was away. It was a hangout party they had pizza and a few friends were there. Then Tommy wanted to do seven minutes in heaven and Tommy choose Oliver to go first then the bottle landed on Layla. Tommy pushes the both of them inside of the closet and for the first couple of minutes they didn't do anything.

"You haven't kiss a boy haven't you?"

"Who would want to knowing that Oliver Queen is my fiancé?"

"Well it's not all that great on this side either"

"No and don't you dare tell Tommy," Layla went slowly and kiss his lips. It was quick but soon Oliver pulled her back into a kiss then they heard a ding from the other side when they walk out of the closet everyone was gone. They both look at each other and grab each other hands. It was at that party where they officially became a couple. They were always together as they grew older together but as soon as things got serious Oliver started to play around. At first Layla was hurt the first time, but Oliver always came back to her and ignore all of the other girls that came around him. She continues her education while he was in and out of college by the time she was twenty-one she graduated with her Master in Business. She was only able to graduate faster because she took college course classes throughout high school. Everyone was celebrating it then Layla and Oliver took a trip to Hawaii. When they came back Layla started to work with bother her father and Oliver's father. Soon after Oliver's twenty-second birthday Oliver took a trip with his dad.

"You're going to be okay without me?"

"It's going to be fine," he said.

"Okay… Oliver once you come back let's make everything official."

"Okay"

"Oliver… get everything out of your system by the time you get back and when you do I have a surprise to tell you."

"Can't wait!" they kiss before she left the dock and got in her car. As she pulls off she sees Laurel's car at the corner of her eye.


Weeks after she was out having Lunch and then Laurel came in the diner and saw Layla. Then she took the seat across from her.

"Laurel, what do I owe this pleasure?"

"Break off the engagement"

"Huh?"

"Oliver doesn't love you we been planning to get place together but he worries about how it would look because he is engaged to you, so break off the engagement."

"Laurel, your poor soul," she said. "As long as you know Oliver you know that he'll never be in a serious relationship with you."

"That's not true"

"He's been a playboy since he was sixteen, and I had to witness it first-hand. I wouldn't be surprise if he was on this trip with someone else. Matter of fact Sara has been talking to him. I bet a hundred dollars that there together." Layla phone rang. "Layla Thorn speaking," she said. "Moira no just having lunch… I am sitting down… yes, okay I'm coming home now." Layla threw a few bills on the table stood up and then fainted. That was the same day that they were declared lost at sea. Nearly a month later they declared all those who was on that boat were dead. But she never gave up the fact that Oliver was alive.
