Thanks to all who reviewed I plan on writing a lot more on this story and probably starting others. Once again thanks for reading, please tell me what you think of the story so far and let me know where you think I should take it from here i have pretty good idea but I want your opinions. Thanks!
"She will staying at my apartment for the time being." With that felicity did her best to turn towards me.
"What?"The blonde questions. At this you gesture to the young man at the desk to give you a second.
"When did you decide I was staying with you. I mean not that it's a bad thing , but I don't have any clothes, and you don't have enough beds for three people and, and, i'm rambling because this..." she slowly tapered off. I put my hands on hers just to show that everything was ok, once she calmed down I sighed.
"Well I figured that since Ollie disappeared and my apartment has an elevator it would be easier for you. Plus you really shouldn't be alone, you could fall or get stuck, so this isn't really up for discussion. And F.Y.I Thea is at your apartment right now getting you clothes. I will not let Darke hurt you again, i know you think that because Oliver isn't here he will try to get you again but I guarantee you that no one will lay a finger on you, ok" I state, hoping for a positive response, because although she was whispering she knew some people were looking at them.
"Ok, but just so you know, someone already is laying a finger on me" she kind of giggled the last part out. I smile and chuckled along. With us both being at an agreement now we went back to the counter so she could finish her personal paperwork. Once she finishes her part she hands it to me so i can fill out all of my contact info and such. When I turn back around I see Felicity attempting what seems to be a doughnut in her wheelchair, and boy is she failing.
"If i'm gonna be in this thing for a while I might as well learn how to have fun with it." she informs me on our way out.
"Good luck with that" I say laughing a bit. as the doors open the cold February air hits us right in the face, I wince for a second before leaning down to pull her blanket up a bit more. She then leans back and says "Thanks Mom I would've froze to death if you didn't pull my blanket up those two inches" she starts uncontrollably laughing. I think to myself ' I really like this loopy, high Felicity'
"Come on" I say lifting her small body into the passenger seat of my car, I then fold up the wheelchair, tossed it into the trunk, and got into the car. When we were heading home I drove through the nearest McDonalds to get us something to eat that wasn't the nasty hospital food we have been eating the last few days.
When i finally stumble through the doors Felicity is babbling something about sleepovers and pillow fights. We settled in for the night and around 6pm Felicity was finally adjusting to her pain meds. It was about that time that Thea got home from work at the club she was just doing the day time stuff the last couple of weeks. but with her she brought 2 bag one had clothes laptops and other technological crap that Felicity said she needed, and in the other was an assortment of chinese food. I was so happy to see that Thea had brought food because that meant that Felicity might finally stop talking about whatever it was she was talking about now.
As they settled down for the night they mostly just watched sappy rom-coms until Felicity started to get tired and decided she wanted to go to bed. So I led her to my bedroom i helped her get her stuff out and was about to head out to give her some privacy but before I made it back to the TV I heard what sounded like a stifled sob. So I turn on my heals and quickly make my way to her on the bed looking for signs of injury or intruders, but there was nothing. I sit down next to her and before I can ask what is wrong I see her fiddling with something shiny and i realize its her ring, the engagement ring. I almost was able to speak before she did.
"He's not coming back… is he ?" she said quietly in between little sobs, and my heart broke. But at the same time I became infuriated but I had to hid that, I had to be her rock.
"Of course he is, why would you say that?" I say trying to sound as calm as possible.
" Because I represent all of his failures, I made him come back, and he wasn't able to protect me, he thinks i'll be better off without him… he'd be better off without me and my baggage anyway." with that I gently grab her chin and turn it towards me.
"If he really did think that then his loss, you deserve so much more than him. You deserve someone who will be at your side in heaven and hell, someone that would walk across fields of fire and death for you. Someone who will love you for and during anything…" and before I could finish my speech she leaned in and kissed me.
Oh no a cliffhanger! I think I will toy around with the Laurlicity relationship a little bit in the upcoming chapters. There will be Smut eventually I just wanna develop the relationship first.
