CHAPTER 1
Beep, Beep Beep
That was the only sound he was hearing when he woke up. Opening his eyes with difficulty, he saw he was in what looked like a hospital room. There was noone there in the room with him, he was alone. The last thing he remembered was him rushing to CNRI to save Laurel and being pinned by the concrete and Oliver. Before he could think anything further, he was pulled into sleep.
The next time he woke up, he felt someone was in the room and the fragrance in the air smelled familiar. Smiling, with the name Laurel on the tip of his tongue, he opened his eyes but there was no Laurel. Nope she probably was with Oliver now thoughts came to him bitterly.
The person in the room was huddled in the only chair in the room with their head bent looking and muttering at something, blonde hair from where he can see and bright pink dress. Felicity he remembered, Oliver's friend who helped him with his vigilantism. He remembered being yelled by her for the condition he kept his computers. Her baby she claimed them, he hurt her soul by keeping them not updated she said and just like that he smiled.
She was so engrossed in her tablet cursing Oliver's name and jumped when she heard "Hey Felicity." Tommy was looking at her a small smile on his face when it hit her he is awake, he is talking, and still looking at her to say something.
He was watching her and then suddenly she was at his bedside and talking "Oh my god Tommy! You are awake, thank god you are awake. You are probably wondering where you are and who I am. I am not a stalker or a groupie, I swear. Just because I think you are hot and visit you every weekend, I am not stalking you. I am friend of Oliver."
How she said all this without missing a beat was a great puzzle to him and he started to chuckle and suddenly there was a searing pain in his chest and he started to cough. He know his bed was being lifted and someone was rubbing his back and holding a cup with cool water. When he sipped it a little, he could see Felicity holding him and there were nurses bustling in and injecting him.
He tried to smile at Felicity but it was only a grimace and she was in near tear. Oliver was not there, Laurel was not there but somehow in his heart he knew it is going to be okay that he was going to be okay and he held onto Felicity's hand while sleep claimed him again.
