Chapter Four
Felicity's POV
For god's sake! He weighs a ton! I can't believe that he couldn't keep his hands off my "tasty boobs"! His words, not mine! Anyway, I really need to get out of this bed. It's a new day and even if I have a tiny hangover, I'll enjoy the day! But how? How can I get out of this bed without waking him up? You guys must be thinking: "Oh god, that's not that difficult, sneak out carefully and its done!". Well yeah, but when you have some kind of Superman, without all the super powers (except for the senses), in bed with you, you just can't sneak out carefully without him noticing every damn move you make…But you know what, I don't care if he's sleeping like Sleeping Beauty. He has nothing to do while I'm here at least! Drugged or not! Sorry, Oliver!
General POV
Felicity throws Oliver across the bed. She is tired with a small hangover. And on top of that, her curiosity has been tickled.
"WHAT THE FUCK?" Oliver says wildly.
Felicity frowns, "What are you doing in bed with me? What happened when I left you and Diggle? And where's Diggle?"
"Felicity, we only shared a bed together and I don't have a clue as to what happened yesterday neither where Diggle is," says a barely awake Oliver.
"Oh… Yes, you're right!" she answers shyly. "How are you? Any headache?"
"Except the fact that I was violently awoken, I think I'm fine!" he says while getting out of bed. "Felicity, why did you take this…room?"
"Uh, it's just that, hum, Diggle told me to take this one. Why? Does it bother you? I'm sorry…I shouldn't have listened to him, I'm really sorry!"
"Is that my…shirt?" his throat is suddenly dry.
"Hum, yes! What's with all these questions Oliver?"
"Which wardrobe?" he asks quickly.
"Why?" she is curious.
"Felicity, please answer my question!"
"Why should I answer your questions since you never answer mine?" she says while she gets out of the bed.
"Look, I'm sorry! Rough night! You go shower, and I'll go see where Diggle is."
"Fine."
She starts moving in the room, getting her stuff together but she doesn't notice Oliver watching her with that dose of lust that no human being can resist. He was very close to jumping on her. She was in this room not somewhere else. This one. Wearing his very short shirt, with her messed hair. Oliver thanks every god that she hasn't discovered what was in the cupboard, because if she had, he would be done. Even if Felicity does not see or even think of herself as an attractive, sexy woman…she definitely is one for Oliver: the hard-on proves it. He needs to get out if here quickly!
Felicity's POV
He acts weirdly. What happened to him through the night? Did he have a nightmare? With a drug combination, I heard that it could bring damage in the long-term, but in the short one, only violence. I don't say that like I don't mind or anything, it's just that it's a part of our lives that we live constantly: violence and danger. Do you guys remember the first meeting with Isabel Rochev? See!
Ahh! Hot water! That. Feels. Really. Good! But I don't have time for this. New case on the desk for us, so time to speed up! There's a tiny, tiny but very important problem right now… I don't have clothes, I mean, yes I do, but those are dirty, and it's a dress or a shirt… I hadn't planned to spend the night here. Fuck!
"Oliver?…O-Oliver?…Diggle ?" For god's sake where did they go!? I need them! And for sure, luck is always with me, the towel is really smart. "Guys, where are you?"
Do I really have to go out of this room dressed like this? I could borrow Oliver's clothes… Yes, let's do that! You're a big girl, Smoak! Which one should I pick? The blue or the black shirt? Oh! The cupboard! I totally forgot about it. I'll pick the black one, more subtle. So, the cupboard, it's between you and…is it lace?
"Felicity!"
"AH! Don't you knock?" my heart began racing like a Ferrari!
"Felicity, we are in my spare room, which is in my house…" he says with a fixed look on the cupboard.
"And? I've could be naked!" Worse excuse I could come with!
"Anyway, now that you've finished, I came to tell you that breakfast is served in the kitchen and that Diggle is already there waiting for us."
"Okay, wait! Do you have trousers that I could borrow?"
"You know, I could ask Thea. She would be glad to dress you! The fashion vibe of the family, she says."
"Oh no, it's fine, it's just for the time being, until we go to Verdant, I have yoga pants there…"
"So take this," he gave me a pair of jeans. These clothes are too big for me.
No time to discuss, I'm hungry, but we don't have time as usual. I take a cup of dark coffee and two pain au chocolat. I love pain au chocolat. While Diggle drives us to the basement, I feel Oliver looking at me very oddly. I really want to know what was in the cupboard. He has stopped me once, but I swear I will find out what's inside! Finally we arrive and I quickly go to the bathroom to change. I don't usually go to this place, I feel weird here! Time to go to my babies, and try to analyze Oliver's blood sample. But for that, I need a blood sample…which means I have to do a collection, and to take a sample, there must be a needle...Oh shit, I hate needles!
"O-o-Oliver!" Gosh, calm down, no need to stutter…
"Yes, Felicty? "
"Could you come here please? I need to collect your blood! For analysis…" This needle is too big. It will pierce him!
"Yes, hum, are you ok? You seem a little bit pale."
Oh, you noticed, fuck!
"No, I-I'm fine! Just tired, I guess so." Liar! "So, hum, are-are you ready?"
"Yes! You can do it."
"You know, I kinda have a search to do, I'll call Diggle for the blood sample, he's around here somewhere…" For god's sake, why can't I do a fucking blood collection!? I'm so pissed!
"Come on, Felicity, we are not going to call Diggle for this, I'll do it! But you have to tell me why you can't do it!"
"Oliver Queen, man of few words, but definitely wise! Hum, I'm – don't laugh okay! – I'm afraid of… of… needles…" Open your eyes! "I know this is ridiculous, I mean, I went undercover in a mob casino, jumped out of a plane, though I made sure I was safe once I jumped out, faced The Count, and hum The Undertaking, so why should I be afraid of a fucking needle! Did I mention The Undertaking? According to your face, yes, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought up sad memories, and I'm babbling, please Oliver stop me, don't let me babble because you know that I could say a lot of things that might not be platonic at all. Don't look at me like that, Queen! Why are you laughing? Why are y…"
"It's fine Felicity, and I don't try to stop your rumblings because, it so happens that I like it." Not the time to turn bright like a red tomato…. For that, I'll hit you!
"AAAAH! Are you made of steel or what?" My hand hurts so much, I may have a strain.
"You need to train, you don't really have strength"
"That's not helping, Oliver!"
"Hahahaha." Listening him laughing is so rare, I like the sound of his laugh. I think I'm staring. Yes I'm staring, that will stop in …"3…2…1… now."
"Sorry?"
"No! That's not what happened, I did not speak out loud."
"Yes, you did, you actually did a countdown from three to one and said 'now'."
Oh . My. God!
"Oliver Queen, are you making fun of me?" I can't believe it! He's really handsome like this…focus Felicity!
"Yes!"
"I like that! I mean, I like it when you let the mask fall and let me see a bit of the real you."
Don't do that face, not that smile or that look…I'm falling…
Oliver's POV
"I like that! I mean, I like it when you let the mask fall and let me see a bit of the real you," she says with her innocent look.
If only she knew the darkness in me, if only she had looked in that cupboard, she would know…
A/N:
First of all, THANK YOU! THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO EVERYONE! A big thank you to my beta tenyaaaaah. You do a really good job because correcting a French person who's trying to write a little story in English is not that simple. Hum, to the reviewer and the follower, thank You! It makes me happy to know that people enjoy my ideas. A hint for the next chapters: this story is way more complicated than it seems and less fluffy after a few chapters. Remember, we are only at 5 months ago ;) it will get darker and darker, but still with humor. And also remember that the rating is M. It won't be for nothing!
To Gothic Fairy Girl: I hope you still want to read it. Even your tiny review totally pleased me :) I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
To Madlenita: thank you, I appreciate you review. I'm glad that it was funny. I kinda had doubts about that point in my chapters. I hope you liked this chapter! It's a little bit more serious but still funny, I hope :) Don't apologize for your English, it's not my mother tongue too hahaha :) I just have an amazing beta!
Bisous, bisous ,folks!
