After the servers blew up Felicity felt like she failed all together, she tried not to cry and bit her lip as the mocking words of the clock king played over in her head.

She couldn't help it as the weight of everything came crashing down on her, she felt so alone for the last few days but tonight was the last straw to that turmoil she felt inside and the worst was the that the clock king bested her and she felt humiliated.

The sob that came out of her mouth and the tears running down her face were evidence of the turmoil she had been feeling for days.

Why John, why did I fail this time...sshh, shhh... Felicity you didn't fail while hugging her and trying to clam her down. "Felicity it's not your fault he said. –But I feel like it is my fault Dig, the one thing I am suppose to be good and it blows up in my face.

"Hey, it's not your fault...ok...he sighed and held her. She is like a little sister to him so seeing her all broken up about this was hurting him.

He had a feeling that some things were bothering her for the last few days but he didn't want to approach her about it so he waited that she opened up to him. He knew Oliver and Sara's getting together was one of those things.

That girl wore her heart on her sleeve when it came to Oliver and it was pretty obvious that she was in love with him but he seems to always over look her; and for that he wanted to really punch Oliver Queen in the face. The guy was a class A jerk ass for treating that wonderful girl like that; he truly didn't deserve her love and loyalty.

Hey Felicity, come on let's get you cleaned up before those two come back. They said they are going to be here in a few minutes. –"Ok she answered.

So she let go of him, gabbed her bag and was just about to go when she hugged him tighter and whispered..."Thanks Dig, you're the best big brother" and with that she made her way to the restrooms.

While in the restroom Felicity splashed water on her face to clean away the dried tears and mascara. She felt a little bit calm and better, she was grateful to have a friend like John Diggle who was like a big brother to her. I think he understood her better then Oliver and she knew that after this he was going to go into overprotective mode the minute she walked back down there.

While combing her fingers through her hair she looked in the mirror and said. –You can do this Felicity; no man is worth your tears. If he doesn't want you then so be it because it's not worth the pain your heart feels. So you can do this Smoak, you didn't graduate at the top of your class for nothing.

With that said Felicity finally locked away that part of her that was in love with Oliver Queen (not Ollie Queen). From now on she was going to keep her distance from him and keep it professional. No more letting her eyes follow him around while his training and no more letting him touch her, just no more intimate things with him. There was so much her heart could take so her best option was;

Out of sight, out of mind

John was just trying to pick up the things from the floor when he heard Oliver and Sara coming in.

While walking down Oliver could smell smoke and he was concerned. He hoped that Felicity was ok because John said something about their systems getting hacked and he heard the explosion.

"Hey Dig where is Felicity? We heard transmissions got intercepted by the clock king. "Felicity's in the restrooms and it seems the clock king got in some how an-

"What Dig is trying to say is that the clock king used the skeleton key to penetrate our system.

"I don't understand Sara answered.

"Well Sara he basically told out system to commit suicide and it did or you could say he told our system to go fuck itself"

To say Oliver and Sara were shocked with her swearing was something? John was just trying not to laugh out loud at their expressions. He tried to cover it with a cough when Oliver gave him a funny look.

Oliver was just trying to move towards her and ask her if she was okay when she side stepped him and walked straight up to Diggle. He stood there looking confused and a little bit hurt because this was the first time that Felicity walked right past him with out a glance. For that matter, she hasn't looked in his direction since she came down.

Dig lifted his head up and asked "Are you okay?

She smiled, squeezed his arm and said "Yes John I am okay.

"What the hell is going and why is Felicity avoiding me? Just when Oliver was trying to rake his mind and think of why she was acting like this, he saw her smile at Dig and whispered something...Fuck! I want to hit Dig right now...wait what! I'm with Sara, why am I feeling the edge to punch John? And then his conscious mind replied "Because you don't like sharing Felicity with anyone else, remember Barry Allen? You're still thinking of ways to pick an arrow in that kid for taking her attention away from us. Admit it dude, we're crazy in love with her...WHAT! Shut up brain...he answered.

Ok this was weird because he was arguing with his brain about Felicity...

He was just trying to walk up to the both of them when Sara said some thing...

"Do you need any help Felicity asked Sara? –I'm good so go to your family dinner. But this is more important she replied. Felicity wanted to tell them to get lost but she held in her anger and looked at Sara and said "And so is your family"

Sara sighed and turned to Ollie "Can you please come with me? – Oliver turned looked at the back of Felicity's head and answered "I think its best I stay here.

"Please Ollie come with me? –Oliver was lost and just wanted Felicity to turn around and look at him so that he could say no to Sara but what he heard next took the wind out of him.

"Just what do you think you can help me with Oliver?

With a hurtful expression, Oliver turned around nodded his head at Sara and walked out of the there a painful feeling in his chest. He didn't know how to describe it but it sure felt like his heart was been stabbed a million times.

He didn't know what happened but his IT girl was pulling away from him;

He felt it for days now and since he started seeing Sara, it was like she disappeared from his life. In his mind he kept repeating over and over

I'm sorry Felicity; forgive me for crushing both our hearts...
