Foundry
"I'm heading out Oliver"
"Wait up for me, I'll drive you home" Oliver walked towards her.
"NO!...I mean, ummm I can handle myself, no need for you to come with me...Okay bye" Felicity hurried up the stairs closing the foundry door behind her. She leaned on the door letting out a sigh before going to her car.
Standing alone in the foundry, Oliver wore a confused look.
Felicity has been acting strange the past few days, so he made a decision to follow her home just to make sure she got home alright, so he told himself.
For two days Felicity has been living at a hotel due to her apartment building being flooded. She was devastated finding out that her 'babies' could be drowning in all that water. Felicity felt weird asking Diggle to stay with him. Even though Oliver was her boyfriend and she knew he would welcome her into his mansion with open arms, she didn't believe his family would be as welcoming.
She did not want to feel helpless, she had enough money to stay at a hotel even if it was making a bit of a dent in her bank accounts.
She sighed as she parked at the hotel building, it was a great hotel, but nothing like sitting in front of her tv with a nice cup of coffee.
Oliver was confused at this point. This was not the way to Felicity's apartment, where was she going? His questions were answered when she pulled up at a hotel. Oliver's face immediately darkened, was she meeting someone? Was she cheating on him? With those thoughts he followed her inside.
Oliver watched as she passed the sign in desk and walked towards the elevator
"Felicity!" she turned around quickly, shock written on her face. "Oliver? What are you doing here?"
The elevator door opened, he grabbed her arm and pulled her into the elevator pressing a random floor and the stop button. He turned to her abruptly.
"What am "I" doing here? What about you? Are you cheating on me?" Oliver said angry. Felicity looked pissed "you followed me here? I cant believe you, even if I was meeting someone it's not any of your business"
"Not any of my business? Of course its my business you're my girlfriend! I see you walk into a hotel, what else was I suppose to think"
"you don't trust me?" Felicity questioned tears gathering in her eyes.
His anger faded instantly "I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me, it's just you have been brushing me off every night. I just thought you might have came to your senses about being with me"
She looked at him guiltily "Oliver no, never, I would never stop loving you, you're it for me"
"I love you too" Smiling at each other. He leaned in to brush a soft kiss to her lips.
She pressed the stop button and pressed the one to her floor. As the door opened she led him to her hotel room unlocking the door.
"So.. What are you doing here?" Felicity started to fidget
"Well I know your my boyfriend and all, but I feel weird asking you and I couldn't ask Diggle he is trying to make things work with Lyla, not saying that you wouldn't help me, I know that you would but.."
"Felicity" Oliver looked at her encouragingly to get to the point
"My apartment building flooded" looking down again
"Felicity" he tilted her chin up looking at her fondly "There are so many rooms at the mansion, why didn't you just ask me?"
"That's the thing Oliver, I didn't want to be a burden. You already see me at work and the foundry, I thought maybe you would get tired of me. There's also the fact that your mom hates me since the whole thing with Thea and I'm sure Thea would think I'm just another notch on your bedpost, even though we haven't slept together yet."
"Yet?" Oliver questioned his eyebrows raising suggestively
Felicity slapped him on the chest blushing red.
"Of course you heard that"
"With all your cute rambles how will I ever get tired of you" Felicity scoffed looking at him incredulously
"Felicity I'm going to have to introduce you as my girlfriend at one point, and you need a place to stay that's not a hotel. You're coming home with me."
"Oliver..."
"Non negotiable, you're coming home with me and that's final... so do you want to ride with me or..."
"Nope! I will not ride on that death trap you call a motorcycle. I have my own car."
Oliver chuckled leaning down to peck her one last time on the lips. They walked down to the parking lot, as he walked towards his bike he turned around to give her a wink "suit yourself" Felicity huffed and stepped into her car.
