'Fake Out'
A/N: Okay so with the hiatus and the confirmation that it was a fake out wedding, and all the angsty fics I've been reading I thought I would write a less angst one and a more where Felicity is nervous and hurt type story. I hope you enjoy!
"I can't."
"Can't what?"
"I can't do this. I changed my mind."
"Um, Felicity don't you think it's a little late for that?"
"What do you mean, there's still some time."
"I think you passed that. We're walking down the aisle already."
"I know. But you know the part in movies where the dad asks the daughter if she really wants to do this. And says he has the car up and ready outside?"
"Yeah, but that's only in movies Felicity."
"I know, I just thought we'd give it a try? I mean I know you're not my dad but… you're always there for me and I wouldn't have anyone else walk me down the aisle. I was going to ask you before…everything happened. You're always there for me and if not like a father then an older brother." She smiled at him.
"Felicity, I would've loved to walk you down the aisle. It would've been a privilege. Maybe if things work out later who knows, it still could?" He said hopefully.
"Hmm…maybe. It's just I didn't expect things to be like this. And I definitely didn't expect this 'fake out' wedding."
"You know it's not real. You two aren't really getting married, if not I would've asked if you wanted to high tale it out of here." He said as he smiled and winked at her.
"Thanks, Digg. It just really hit me that this could've been real and it hurts you know."
"I know."
They finally reached the alter and he kissed her cheek and went to take his place.
She plastered on a smile with a brave face and stood by the man who she thought was supposed to be her future husband.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today…" The officiant stated.
