"Anyone know where Felicity is?" Oliver asked as he stood next to the computers
"Yeah, she rang me earlier said she wasn't feeling too great and she will ring you later" I say surprising everyone, including Thea one of my greatest friends
"Erm thanks Roy" Oliver answers
Just as Laurel was about to speak, Licity's computers beeped and we all rushed into action, Diggle stayed behind to provide support from here and the rest of us so Thea, Oliver, Laurel, Sara and I all rushed into action and made our way to the scene. After we took down the suspect we dropped them all off at the side entrance of the SCPD Headquarters for Captain Lance and he thanked us before we headed back to the foundary. We entered the foundary and as I approached the last step Dig shouted me.
"Roy, your phone has been going crazy, it was Felicity" Dig spoke
I walked over to him and grabbed my phone before sending a little thank you his way. I clicked 'call back' and held the phone to my ear as i walked over to the armoury. After the second ring, she answered the phone.
"Hey Roy"
"Felicity, what's up?"
"What time will you have left the foundary at"
"Shouldn't be too long we just got back, why?" I ask knowing fine well, I walked back into the main area
"Will you stop and get some food from Big Belly please, im feeling a lot better and im hungry"
"Course I will, ill get you your normal order okay and ill get Dan's too"
"Yeah, thank you Roy"
"No problem Blondie"
"See you when your back home"
"Sure you will, see you later"
"Love you" She says and i smile as i sit down on the med table
"Love you too Licity, try and rest"
She laughs and then hangs up, i put my phone back into my pocket before looking to see everyone staring at me, i look at them and then Oliver speaks clearing all tension.
"Was that Felicity" he asks
"Yeah she is feeling a bit better and wants me to get her food on the way home"
"Aw, typical Licity. Let me guess Big Belly Burger"
"Yeah, even when she isn't feeling well she wants one"
"How is little Dan, it's been too long" Dan's Felicity's 3 year old son
"He's great, he wants to come visit everyone and i said soon. She will be back tomorrow no doubt about that"
"Aw good. When you see her tell her not to worry about that, and ill call her later"
"I will Oliver"
"We should all go, call it a night and just go home" Oliver speaks and i nod
I grab my signature red zip up hoodie and slide it on. I walk into where we change and i grab my duffel bag and then i walk out the room. Thea approaches me and she hugs me tightly, before speaking to me.
"Your a good friend Roy, Oliver's just a little jealous that she didn't call him"
"Thanks Thea, see you tomorrow"
"Yeah course, dont be late for your shift"
"I won't"
I walk out the foundary and walk a full block to my car, well Felicity's car that i have borrowed for the day. It was easier to use hers because it was parked behind my car and so it was easier to get out and mine would have created too much noise and probably would have woke her up. It didn't matter we practically had the same cars anyway just hers was black and quieter and mine was red and very loud because i like loud cars. I get in the car and start it up; i pull away from my parking spot and start to drive to Big Belly Burger. I go through the drive-thru and get our orders before I drive back to Felicity's house.
Now that Ray Palmer owns Queens Consolidated, Felicity's life has been even better than before. She is VP of the company thanks to Ray and she has the biggest support group ever, everybody loves little Daniel, her 3 year old son. Ray gets called Uncle by him or gets called Robot, Oliver is Oli and Thea is Aunt, as well as Sara and Diggle gets called Digger. Everybody loves the little monster and i love him an awful lot, he's energetic, he loves all the superhero things and he knows about what we all do. Anyway back to Felicity, her life is amazing, she has Daniel, Support, a great job and an unreal house that Ray went halves with her for. I practically live with Felicity and she appreciates all i do for her. Truth is i dont know where i would be without her. I pull up and park the car before i get out and grab the meals i had just bought. It was only 6 so i know that Dan would still be up for at least another half hour.
I walk into the house, locking the door behind me since nobody would be leaving. I leave my duffel bag by the door and walk into the lounge to see Daniel and Felicity watching some form of cartoon. I put the food on the coffee table, followed by the drinks before i take off my jacket.
"Thank you Roy" Felicity says to me
"Roy, Roy look at the toy a got wit da food" Little Dan spoke to me as i scooped him into my arms and gave him a giant hug.
I sit down on the single chair and Dan grabs the remainder of his meal and also my meal before coming and sitting on my lap. I smiled at him and started to eat my chips, he was mocking me by following what i was doing. I looked at Felicity to see her laughing at him and me. This was the happiest i have seen her when she is unwell and that made me happy. After eating Dan decided to lie on me and watch TV while i spoke to Felicity softly and quietly.
"So Oliver asked about you earlier"
"Aw hope you told him i was feeling much better"
"I did and he said he was glad. He asked about this little monster to" I tickled him so he giggled
She laughed in response. "Aw i should thank him, ill do it tomorrow after work"
"Good good, everyone misses this one. I said ill take him to visit sometime soon"
"That will be good would you like that buddy, you wanna go visit everyone soon" She asks
"Yeah, can us mom, Roy. Pwease" Danny spoke before going back to his prior activity
"Course buddy. It's getting late, its time for your bath before bed, you've already had an extra half an hour" She says to her son who answers by hugging closer to me
"Why dont i bath and put him to bed while you just relax and catch up on your TV or call Oliver" I say
"You sure, he can be a little horror" She says laughing
"I cannot" He answers
"Ill do it" I answer
"Alright, come give mum a hug and kiss goodnight then" He hops over to her
He hops off of me and runs and hugs his mom before giving her a giant kiss. I watch the entire embrace before Dan runs back over to me and pulls me by my hand up the stairs. I smile at Felicity as i am dragged from the room and up the stairs to his bedroom. Its robot themed which looks awesome and i walk into his on-suite bathroom. I turn on the taps and start the bath with him besides me the entire time. Once its run and it's the correct temperature, i turn and look at the smiling toddler before speaking.
"Why dont you go and grab the pyjamas you want to sleep in, ill grab the towel and then we meet back here in two" I say to him
"Ready, set, Go" He says and rushes out the bathroom
I walk out the room and to the cupboard in his room; i grab a towel and a face cloth before walking back into the bedroom to see him already sat on the toilet seat smiling at me.
"I beat you" he says shouting at me
I laugh and he changes before jumping into the bath. I wash his hair and clean him before we just sit and play for a bit, we are playing with his little boats that float on the water until it starts to go cold and then i get him out. I dry him off before putting his Spiderman Pyjamas on.
I can see him practically falling to sleep already so i carry him out the bathroom and to his bed; i lie him down in the bed and pull the cover up over him. As i lie him down i realise that he has already fallen asleep. I smile at the image in front of me before i turn on his nightlight and switch off the main light, i look back at him before i close the door but not fully and then i walk back down the stairs where i see Felicity asleep on the sofa with her phone on the coffee table. I smile at that sight before i turn the TV off, i walk over to her and i pick her up bridal style i switch the light off with my head and then i gently walk up the stairs to her room, i push the door open and walk over to her bed. I take her slippers off and her robe, luckily she is still dressed in her pyjamas so it's easy for me since i dont need to wake her up. I shot the cover up over her before i too get ready to sleep. I strip off my clothes so i am just in my boxers before i climb into my side of the bed. I mean sure i sleep in Felicity's bed with her but we are best friends so its all good, i have my own bed and my own room but i know that she likes someone to cuddle and since Dan sleeps mostly throughout the night she doesn't get to cuddle nobody which is where i come in. Im only in the bed for what seems like a minute when she rolls over and curls into me, i put my arm around her and let sleep draw in on me.
-Hours Later-
I know it is nowhere near to the time we need to be up and yet im awake because i heard the door open. I look to see Daniel slowly enter the room with his teddy bear. I look at Felicity to see her flat out so i wave at him to come over to me. He does and i lift him up so he is sat on my chest as i look at him.
"What's up buddy?" I quietly ask
"Can't sleep"
"You want to stay in here with me and your mum for the night"
"Yeah, sleepover just like when i stay at Uncle Robot Ray" he says and i smile
I move him so he is between Felicity and I as i turn around to face him, he kisses my cheek before curling up into me. I pull him closer to me and i put my arm over him before i listen to him breathing, eventually it evens out and that's when i know it's safe to go to sleep too.
