You all are wonderful. SamanthaFrieta3 I love it but in the future Felicity will also be very protective of Thea also so it works both ways. Since the last one was so short I decided to do a longer one. Hope you enjoy, please review. Any ideas are very much appreciated. I also know I said this chapter would have Felicity and Thea in it sorry. I'll upload it as soon as I can after. I needed to put what was going on in the outside world too. Thanks for all your support.
Hey Speedy Mom wants to know if you want lobster tail or crab legs tomorrow night for dinner. Oliver hit send as he finished the text to his sister.
"So mom, what do you want to do the rest of the night? We could watch movies, because there are plenty I haven't seen. Or we could look through photo books?" he looked at his mother who was sitting on the couch beside him staring into space. "Or we could poke our eyes out with forks covered in hot sauce."
"Yeah, sure honey, whatever you like," she distractedly responded.
"Mom"
"Oh honey I'm sorry," she said sympathetically. "I've just had a lot on my mind lately.
"I know," he scooted closer and grabbed her hand. "But mom, Thea and I, we are here for you, and we're not going anywhere". Ping. He looked down at his phone.
One New Text from Roy Harper
"Is that from Thea? Did she say what she wanted because I really need to send a list with Raisa for her trip to the supermarket in the morning?"
"Um, no I need to take this," he paused, "its work," he reassured her.
Is Thea at home? She complained of a headache about an hour and a half ago. She went in the back to get some water and rest. Thought she was sleeping and wanted to leave her alone. Came to check and she was gone. No note, nothing!
That was weird. Thea wouldn't just disappear like that. He hit the call button.
"Hello Oliver? Is Thea with you?" asked a panicked Roy.
"No, I haven't heard from her all night. What happened?"
"Just what I said, she had a headache and asked me to take over for twenty minutes while she got some rest. I went to check on her and she was gone." Oliver took a breath.
"Okay, I'm on my way. Don't do anything." He hung up the phone. Maybe nothing is wrong, worst case scenario is Thea found the lair. Okay maybe not worst case but she is very nosey. Maybe Felicity was still there. He pulled his phone back out.
You still at lair? Thea went MIA at the club thought maybe she found it. Txt me back asap. Headed over there now. Keep you updated.
He hit send.
Text successfully sent to Felicity Smoak
"Mom," he stuck his head into the living room. She turned and looked at him. "I'm really sorry but it's urgent. I'll be back as soon as I can. Love you."
"It's okay honey, love you." He smiled and turned to leave.
When Oliver arrived at Verdant he was shocked to see how many people were there. He pushed his way to the back. When he got to the bar he saw a worried Roy. Roy looked up just in time for their eyes to meet.
"Oliver, you got here fast."
"It was important. So you're sure you didn't see her leave?"
"I'm sure; she went into the back room when I saw her last." Oliver opened the door to see a barley drunken Smart Water, a bottle of aspirin sitting in the coffee table and a half eaten bag of chips on the floor that he had left in the utility closet last week by accident. He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
Calling Thea the best little sister ever
She had put that in his phone a few weeks back and he didn't have the heart to change it. Mostly because it was true, she wasn't perfect but neither was he. Thea was his world and he couldn't lose her. Buzz. Buzz. Her pink I Phone was buzzing in between the two couch cushions. He picked it up.
One new text from Ollie
Two new texts from Roy
One new text from Margo
Four missed calls from Roy
One missed call from Ollie
He clicked on the text from Margo.
Bitch, do you know where I can score some Vertigo?
Of course it would be something stupid. He had to check the lair.
"Roy why don't you go out and make sure you just didn't miss her in there. I'm gonna make some phone calls and check in the basement." Roy nodded and left shutting the door behind him. Oliver walked over to the utility closet and opened the door. He pushed on the lever to make the closet spin. He walked down the stairs. When he got to the bottom he almost choked. He knew what had happened here, or at least some of it. Papers were strewn across the floor and two pools of blood one larger than the other. He quickly got a sample from each of the pools on the ground. He stuck it in Felicity's "10 minute Identification" Kit. 10 minutes later they came back. It was two female blood samples one read Thea Elizabeth Queen and the other Felicity Alexandra Smoak. He almost threw up. He called Diggle and explained to him what was going on.
"Who would do this?" asked Diggle racing down the stairs.
"I don't," Oliver interrupted himself when he thought of the text that Margo had sent. Vertigo. "Dig, what if it was the Count?"
This one is for the New Year Happy 2014 everyone. I wrote this in spare moments I had at my new years party I threw. It defiantly wasn't like the Queen's but it was fun. Happy New Year!
