#7 Which one constantly wear the other's clothes?

"Are you sure you're going to be okay?" Felicity asks as she and Oliver get out of the car. She was going to Gotham City for a few days to work on a project Smoak Technologies and Wayne Enterprises were collaborating on.

"Felicity it's only for 2 days. I think I can survive." Oliver jokes as he gets her bags out of the back of the car and winks at her as he sets her bags on the ground next to them both.

"I know but we haven't been apart for more than a few hours since we started dating, let alone for 2 straight days…Plus, I'm gonna miss you." She says jutting her lip out in a pout as she takes a step closer to him wrapping her arms around his waist.

"I'm going to miss you too, but you have been talking non-stop about this collaboration between you and Wayne enterprises for weeks." He says wrapping his arms around her waist as well getting as close to her as he can. She does the same and snuggles her head into his chest taking in a deep breath of him for the last time for the next 2 days.

"You're right. I just don't want to leave." She mumbles into his chest hoping that he doesn't hear her admittance.

"Wait. What did you just say?! Did you just admit that I was…Right!?" He asks with a knowing smile spread across his face as he slightly pulls back from their hug so he can get a good look of her face.

"Don't push it mister, I'll only say it once." She gives him what she thinks is a stern look which causes Oliver to chuckle as she pokes him in the chest.

He kisses her forehead quickly the smile not leaving his lips. He picks up her duffle bag off of the ground and hands it to her. He didn't want her to go at all but he knew that it was necessary for her company. He didn't want to go through two days let alone two nights without her by his side, he has endured nights without her before and it always resulted in horrible nightmares.

"You should probably get going if you want to make your flight." He says sadly not being able to look away from her face. Felicity nodded and threw the duffle bag over her shoulder with a sigh feeling the same way that Oliver did, she wanted nothing more than to just stay here with him. She took the few steps that were separating them and kisses him letting her lips linger on his for a few seconds and melting into his body before separating from him knowing that neither of them would have had the courage to do it if the kiss went on for any longer.

"Alright, I'm leaving. If I don't leave now then I am going to end up dragging you back into the car and heading straight for home." She says sweetly and pats his chest taking a few steps backwards away from him

.

"I love you. Don't miss me too much." She says sending him a wink while slowly backing away towards the terminal.

"I love you too." He says as she turns around satisfied with his reply. He stands there and watches her until she in absorbed into the crowd. He lets out a sad sigh and turns around heading back towards the car and gets in heading towards the bunker.

He spent most of his evening with the team canvasing the city looking for any criminals that they could get off the street, trying to distract himself. But it didn't feel the same without Felicity there, they all agreed to call it a night and head home.

Once he got home he facetimed Felicity and she told him all about what her and Bruce where working on but he didn't know much of what she was saying, he just liked being able to hear her voice. After a few hours of them talking about their days they decided to hang up because Felicity had an early morning. He knew that she needed to go to Gotham to work with Bruce but no matter how much he trusted Felicity he would always hate Bruce Wayne. The man is constantly flirting with her and she always turns him down saying how Oliver was going to kill him one of these days if he didn't stop which is true. He might actually kill Bruce if he didn't cut it out.

Oliver laid in his bed starring up at the ceiling for what felt like hours, but it was useless he couldn't get comfortable let alone sleep without Felicity lying in bed next to him with the weight of her head on his chest. Having her there always lulled him into a dreamless sleep. But without her there next to him, sleep didn't seem to want to come. He got up out of bed a bit frustrated and started to do some pushups and jumping jacks in the hopes that they would tire him out to a point of sleep, but it was no use, it was just making him restless.

He then sat down on the bed and noticed something on the chair that sat next to their bed, it was one of his Henley's that Felicity stole and slept in most nights. He smiled to himself and picked it up putting it on, a smile grew on his face as her scent enveloped his senses instantly causing his nerves to calm down. She always seemed to be able to do that for him.

He laid back down in bed with a small smile on his face. It wasn't going to be fun or easy but he could definitely survive the next day without Felicity by his side. He would just have to not take off the Henley until she got back home.

He slept most of the night, only waking up twice in search of Felicity but not finding her on the other side of the bed. After waking up for the third time at around seven he just gave up and got out of bed and did a quick workout to try and busy himself and not to think about the fact that he had the entire apartment to himself. He took a quick shower and started to make himself breakfast as Felicity facetimed him again, he smiled as he answered and saw that she was already ready for the day and looked to be already working on whatever it was that she was collaborating on Wayne enterprises with.

"Hey there gorgeous, how's the east coast treating you?" He asks as he sets the phone down so that he can continue making his breakfast while talking to her but making sure that she can still se him and vice versa.

"Hi handsome. It's good, it's a little cold but it could be worse, I figured that I would call you knowing that you would be up already. Knowing you like I do, you've probably been up for a few hours already." She smiled knowing that she was right just by the way that he shook his head a smile already adorning his lips.

"What time is it there anyways? Shouldn't you be working on…whatever it is you're working on?" He looks up at the phone seeing that she is smiling and shaking her head. She has told him a million times what it was exactly that she was working on, but he honestly never actually comprehended it. She always lights up whenever she talks about one of her new projects but she starts talking in tech talk and she looses him automatically.

"Are you currently questioning my work ethic Mr. Queen?" She asks teasing him in an incredulous tone feigning anger, he knew that she was only joking with him. He loved getting little moments like this with her and just teasing each other back and forth.

"I would never do such a thing Ms. Smoak, just the longer that you are there is longer that we are apart, and I don't want you to have to be there longer than you are already." He said with a little pout as he stopped chopping the vegetables and looked down at his phone and saw her smiling face displayed completely across it. She had a sad smile across her face knowing exactly how he felt.

Felicity missed him insanely, she hardly got any sleep last night because he wasn't there beside her to keep her company and for her to snuggle into his chest. She tilted her head and took a deep breath knowing that he was missing her just as much and she was him.

"Plus, it's more time that you have to spend with that douche bag Bruce Wayne." He mumbled under his breath and she let out a bark of laughter and shook her head as she leaned back in her chair and looked back down at the screen to see him glaring back through the phone at her. She knew that he didn't like Bruce, but she also knew that he trusted her, little did he know that Bruce just did it to get on his nerves because he knew how much Oliver disliked him.

"He does it just because it gets under your skin and his knows it, if you wouldn't let it affect you, he wouldn't do it." She smiled and teased him and watched as he rolled his eyes and she did her best to hold in the giggle trying to escape her lips. He took a long breath and blew it out and she could tell that he was trying to forget about Bruce and just enjoy the moment between them.

"I should probably get back to work, I just took a little break because I wanted to see you and hear your voice." She gives him a sweet smile and sees the annoyance from the topic of Bruce Wayne dissipate from his features making her feel more relaxed as well. She pauses for a few moments before adding something needing to reassure him.

"You know that I love you right? That I would never even think of Bruce like that?" Felicity asks nervously needing to know that he knew that she wasn't going to run off with him, she jokes with Bruce sometimes because it always gets a rise out of Oliver and sometimes it's cute and adorable, but she always shuts it down before it goes too far.

He tilted his head with a sweet smile that was mirroring her own, she had noticed that he had started to pick that up from her and she found it irresistible and couldn't ever not smile when he stared at her like that.

"Of course I know that! I know that you wouldn't ever run off with him like you two sometimes tease me with. I trust you and no matter how much I hate the guy I can admit that he is respectable and wouldn't ever actually make a move on you."

She took a deep breath and nodded glad that he knew that it was all just a joke and that she didn't have any plans to leave him for Bruce Wayne, no matter how much she loved Oliver's brooding Bruce was at least ten times worse and it scratched at her nerves sometimes.

"Good I'm glad that we have cleared that tidbit up, I really do need to let you go babe. The guys I am working with are currently trying to fix the prototype and they are just brutally murdering the poor thing." She frowned and Oliver laughed and nodded knowing that he had to let her go if he wanted her to finish things up.

"Alright go and stop them before they destroy the thing and you are stuck there even longer." He winked and caused her to chuckle and shake her head. She blew him a kiss and sent him a wink back.

"I love you. I'll see you tomorrow when I come home."

"I love you too baby." With that Oliver hung up and continued to make his breakfast with a smile on his face, just a few minutes of talking to her had calmed down his nerves. She would be home the next day, he could totally do this.

Oliver walked into the apartment and was exhausted and spent from spending the entire night canvasing the streets, before he knew it was midnight and he figured that he should probably head home and try and get some sleep. He walked up stairs and walked right into his and Felicity's bedroom not even noticing the suitcase by the door.

He started to take off his clothes absentmindedly not even noticing when the bathroom door opened, and Felicity stood there watching Oliver strip down to nothing but his boxers as she wore the same Henley that he had worn the night before to help himself sleep. She let her eyes roam over his body and just take in the beauty that were the muscles in his back, she would never be able to understand why the sight of his bare back did the things it did to her, but she definitely did not mind.

"Damn, my man sure is sexy." She let out and she watched him whirl around at the sound of her voice startling him, but the second that he saw that it was her he instantly relaxed and smiled and took the few strides towards her and wrapped himself around her tiny frame. She smiled and wrapped her arms around him and hugged him to her body letting him just hold her. She snuggled her head into his chest and let herself take the first deep breath that she has since she last saw him at the airport.

"I thought you weren't getting back till tomorrow afternoon?" He asked only pulling back enough to smile down at her and give her a quick sweet kiss. He didn't realize how much he actually missed her touch until this moment when he was holding her in his arms.

"I didn't, but after I facetimed you I just dove right into the work and got everything done that I needed to. Then had a few meetings with Bruce to sign some contracts. After everything was settled, he offered to take me out to dinner to celebrate but I turned him down and told him that I needed to get home to my man." She smiled and reached up onto her tiptoes to give him another kiss, she would never get tired of getting to do that whenever she pleased.

"Well I can't say that I am disappointed." He says against her lips making her smile and kiss him again as they both start moving towards the bed at the same time without a second thought. Oliver finds the hem of the Henley that she was wearing and pulls back just enough to pull it off of her body and threw it absentmindedly back onto the chair that he had found it on the night before.

They spent the whole night making love, getting to know each other's bodies as if it was the first time. Oliver smiled as Felicity settled against his chest and slowly began to fall asleep, he kissed the top of her head and thought how he didn't think that life could get better than this.
