Disclaimer: I own nothing of the wonderful world of Arrow and all the wonderful characters that inhabit that world. My first fic ever so be warned I welcome helpful criticism.
Prologue:
I walked the seventeen steps back and forth between my room and the living room for hours just waiting for the final bomb to implode. I knew better I knew what would happen if I broke the rules and yet I did it anyways. I was warned I told myself as I began to count the cracks in the paint on the wall. I knew what could happen if I even broke one of those stupid rules and, here I stand just waiting. Rose is going to kill me then she is going to bury the evidence so deep that my dental records won't even help. This is my fate all because I couldn't keep my big mouth shut. Yeah Kate was right I really do need to learn to shut up.
The door opened into my third hour of pacing and in she walked just as regal and distinguished as the day I met her. She was also pissed, or mad, or angry I still can't really decide what her usually emotionless face is attempting to convey. Rose Danvers my keeper or as she calls herself my case worker; yeah I really should have kept my mouth shut.
"Felicity Meghan Smoak you have broken the rules and now I have to decide what fate is going to befall you. You were warned the day you decided to join our ranks and, you were even given a case worker to make the transition easier. All you had to do was say nothing that's it and you would have been just fine. Now please explain why you couldn't simply hold your god damn tongue?" My response to her little speech was to start from the beginning; my response was to tell her why I couldn't hold my god damn tongue.
"Rose I told you when you assigned me this case that it wasn't going to end well, I told you the moment I started to feel something for him. I begged you to just listen to me when I stormed into your office proclaiming I was in love with him. Why couldn't you just listen to me?"
Rose looked me up down with her usual distain and without any real change she stated in her calm cool voice.
"Fine you're in love with him, but that doesn't mean you had to tell him the details of how you came into his life. That doesn't mean you can just destroy all our plans to ease your own soul. We had a deal we gave you a new life, which means we can also take it away. Now that you've told him everything I have to decide how we're going to handle you. So my question to you is why, why couldn't you just keep quiet?"
I responded back with "Because when this started he was just some guy in a hood and I was the A.R.G.U.S recruited agent sent to lure him in. Now I'm in love with him and guess what he's just as in love with me. Now that I love him and he loves me there is nothing that could make me hurt him anymore than I already have."
Rose waited to respond like she was sizing me up; attempting to decide if she could still salvage this situation. Her next response however made me flash back to the beginning of this whole saga. She reminded me that when this started I was working at QC in the mailroom, I was living in a room that made up 4 different spaces. I wasn't living up to who I could really be. She reminded me that I took this chance and, without it I never would have met him. I never would have fallen in love with Oliver Queen.
"Alright Felicity, I've made up my mind I have decided how we're going to proceed."
I waited holding my breath as the proverbial ax began to fall.
"I have always liked you Felicity, you have a fire that burns brightly within you. I saw it the moment we met, I've seen your flaws, your strengths, and you're weaknesses. I've also seen how much you care for people and how much they care for you. With this in mind how do you plan on getting out of A.R.G.U.S and Amanda's grasp?"
I responded before I even knew my mouth was moving. "Oliver has a plan. We both think that this can work but, I will need your help."
Her next response proved I was right to trust Rose Danvers. "Alright Ms. Smoak what do you need from me?"
