Felicity doesn't know how she drove all the way to the new lair. She made it down the stairs before she melted down to the center platform stairs and cried. After her melt down she managed to get into her chair and mumble to herself 'i pick the perfect time to cry my brains out with no one around'.
Felicity must have cried her eyes out again cause the next thing she knew her chair was turned around and Oliver was kneeling in front of her chair. She couldn't hear him cause she was to busy trying not to cry again.
"Felicity, look at me" Oliver said but he started to get worried when she wouldn't do what he asked. So he switched tactics he placing his left hand on her cheek and waited for her to feel the contact of his hand. He knew she felt it from her moving her face into his hand and closing her eyes enjoying the warmth.
"Felicity, look at me" Oliver said again this time she responded by opening her eyes and looking him right in the eyes.
"Ok good, now take a deep breath"
Felicity put her hand over his that was on her cheek, never looking away from Oliver she takes a strong deep breath and lets it out also letting a tear run down her cheek that caught Oliver's eyes. Oliver wiped the tear, getting angry at whoever made his girlfriend like this would soon get his/her butt kicked by him. Felicity just for a second looked to see if anyone else was with Oliver. She was just now noticing Diggle, Laurel, Sara, Thea standing right behind Oliver.
"Is that offer about telling you about my day still open" Felicity said trying to figure out how she is going to tell him about her whole day. More importantly how is everyone else going to handle it.
"Always" Oliver said smiling about only Felicity would ask to tell him about her day.
"Now for me to tell you guys, I want no interrumptions, no cell phones going off, and no coddling me." Felicity looked all around the room at the nodding faces then back to Oliver for her to tell her story
"I was having the best day, you made me my favorite pancakes, which I am kind of craving right now. Anyway I left for work and you packed my lunch again, now that I mention it, I dont think I ate lunch with all my excitement this morning. Then I got more good news after my first meeting this morning. Then I got a call from my best friend from M.I.T. Then my day went down hill so fast I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't talk, couldn't breathe, I don't even know how I even made it to my car or even here" Felicity finished part of her story out of breath. She looked at all the faces around the room and took multiple deep breaths then spoke again.
"Do you guys want all the good news first or the bad news" Felicity said leaning back in her chair not looking at anyone but the ceiling "then again the good news tens to soften the blow of the bad news."
"Felicity" Oliver said
Felicity got up from her chair and started walking to her purse that was still on the steps after she first cried. She took out her tablet and turned it on looking for one specific thing.
"I am going to get this one good news done with before I tell you the rest" Felicity said looking at the picture on the screen. She looked up and everyone was just looking at her.
She took a deep breath and just spit it out.
"I'm Pregnant" she blurted out and turned the tablet over showing her sonogram
Everyone was speechless, but Oliver. He walked over to her and kissed her on the lips. He backed away but looked her in the face and said
"I am gonna be honest with you, I already knew you were pregnant, infact i've known sense last week." Oliver said smiling
"What, how did you find out" Felicity was a little angry and annoyed at to how he found out she was pregnant.
"3. You have been gaining a little wait, 2. You are having cravings for specific food and ordering me to cook them, but my dead give away was when you switched our coffee last week to decaf at home,at your office and here in the lair, not once have I seen you ever drink decaf coffee sense i've known you." Oliver said smiling
Felicity just looks at Oliver trying to figure out how he noticed all those things and not told her that he knew.
"I'm gonna be an Aunt" Thea screams and running up to her for a hug and to rub her belly but was stopped by Felicity
"Thea you so much as think of rub my belly, so help me god I will lock you out of the lair for a month and that goes for all of you" Felicity said pointing a finger at Thea, Laurel, Sara, Diggle, and next to her at Oliver.
"The child isn't here yet and you are already acting like a mother." Thea wigned
"What do you expect, I have to deal with all of you guys all the time. I swear if this child takes after Oliver while i'm pregnant, me acting like a mother is the least of your worries" she looked at everyone expecually Oliver.
'Now may I continue, Good, after that, a project I have been working on for Team Arrow sense last year has been approved. I am not telling you cause it was suppose to be a secret until I revealed it during the press conference next week. Then Nicole from college called and told me she is moving to Star City. Then Bad news from then on."
"I didnt expect that my father, a person i havent seen in 2 decades, walks into my office and starts talking to me like he never left. But that is not the reason why I am crying my eyes out, and some has to do with my hormones lately" Felicity said but stopped and started thinking and a sudden though made her was to hurl.
Everyone was waiting for her to keep talking when Felicity got uo quickly and ran to the hall to the bathroom. Everyone was on her tail until she headed to the bathroom. They all look at Oliver and he nods. Everyone stays outside the bathroom door but Oliver.
Oliver walks in and instandly goes to her side and holds her hair back while she pukes into the toilet. Instinctively he starts rubbing her back trying to make her feel better. When he does she rested her head on the seat.
"Oliver, I need you to promise me something, because once I tell you the reason for my puking, I know you and you will do something stupid." Felicity said not lifting her head from the toilet
"I will if your asking" oliver said still rubbing her back
"Oliver I need you to promise me" she said lifting her head and looking right at him
"Ok I promise" Oliver said while grabbing some toilet paper and whipping her mouth
"For me to tell you I need to tell all of you guys together" Felicity started moving to the door but was stopped with Oliver grabbing her elbow
"How bad is it"Oliver said looking right in her eyes and he knew it was bad if there was a tear going down her cheek
They walked out of the bathroom and as usual the team ask if she was ok, is it the baby, do you need to go to the hospital, do you want some tea, are you cold?.
"Heeeeeyyy" Felicity said in her loud voice silencing everyone while Oliver was at her side telling her to breathe and think about what its doing to the baby. Felicity takes some deep breathes and calmed herself before she dropped the biggest bomb ever.
"Everyone meet me at the table, I need to grab something" everyone was about to say something when she pointed to the table and gave them all a glare to do what she says or else face. Everyone without having to be told twice turns around and walks to the table. Everyone but Oliver of course, who is still at her side.
"Go, I just gotta grab something." Felicity said kissing his cheek and walking up to the platform.
Whispering to herself "here goes nothing." She grabs a tablet hooked up beside the touchscreen board. She stated finding a certain app on it and waited till she was at the table to push it.
"Ok before I tell you guys the big news, I am gonna have some insurance so certain people dont do anything stupid, She hits the button and the whole lair becomes locked and doors begin to close at all entrances. Everyone gets up and begins to be a little worried about what she is about to tell them, if she has to lock them all in the lair.
"What the hell Felicity" "Felicity what are you doing" something along those lines is what some of them say.
"I had cisco and somewhat barry install barricades on all entrances, so no one can get in, and no one can get out." Felicity said while sitting down and looking at everyone around the table standing or looking around the room at all the barricades.
