Felicity(15 years old)
It wasn't surprising that they won the scavenger hunt. I mean with Felicity's love for solving mysteries, Tommy's out of the box thinking and Oliver's...well Oliver's "support" they even beat Caitlin and Cisco's team. Cisco pouted sorely as it was the first time in three years that he had lost. Felicity bribed him with her pretzel stick, and all was forgotten. The way to Cisco's heart was food after all.
The rest of the week flew by too fast much to Felicity's disdain. She loved that her two best friends from home got to hang out with her two best friends from camp. She mentally captured the scene of Cisco trying to explain Dungeons and Dragons to Tommy. Surprisingly, Tommy took a liking to it. His secret vice he said, promising to meet Cisco for a round if he ever was in Central City.
Felicity and Oliver had the time of their lives doing what they do best together: pranking their friends. They often saw opportunities to pull a quick one over the gang. They had unspoken cues that only two of them would understand, working and acting in total sync to come up with elaborate pranks .They were like mind readers, picking up each others clues.
Once, the two of them had sprayed shaving foam all over Tommy when he was asleep. They laughed for hours thinking about how he looked like a Foamed Snowman(Tommy wasn't as amused though).
Two days until the camp was over, Oliver knew he needed to up his game. Oliver took things a bit too far when he decided to play a prank on Felicity. He thought it would be a nice touch to prank the partner prankster herself.
Only 3 people knew of her weakness, her Kryptonite (the thing that would kill her): Caitlin, Tommy and him. Her outer demeanour screamed gothic, independent and nonchalant, however Oliver knew deep down inside she was just a girl with a soft heart.
There was only one thing that Felicity kept secret, something that was totally out of character for her.If you'd took a hard look at Felicity you would never know that she had a trusted companion(stuffed bear actually)named Rupert. Rupert was her lifeline, she took him everywhere she went, hidden in her suitcase never to see the outside world .He was her confident and her knight in shining armour against her nightmares.
Oliver knew that Rupert was her lifeline, and she would lose her mind if anything happened to him. He should have known better, but of course Oliver being Oliver, he lived in the moment, rarely stopping to think things through.
He snucked into her cabin after lunch, when he knew that she would be at a workshop where they built fancy robots or something. He took Rupert and hid him under his bed. He only wanted to "borrow" that dusty old bear for a day, or at least until she noticed. He was going to ask her if he could get Raisa to wash him as he was filthy. Wasn't she too old for stuff toys anyway?
Felicity loved the robotics workshops. Robotics was going to revolutionise so many fields in the future and she was so excited! She sighed in contentment when her dark brown hair hit the pillow."Ahh, finally let's get some shut eye Rupert!" she said reaching to the side of her pillow in search of Rupert.
Empty. Her hand hit the side of the pillow hard. She searched around her bed before jumping out of her bed to search for him.
"Flis, what's wrong? What are you searching for? "Caitlin asked as she put her book down.
"Cait, have you seen Rupert? He'd missing! He's not where I left him this morning and he's not in my suitcase either! Where is he!?!! " Felicity screamed as she frantically searched their cabin. She threw the pillows on her bed on the floor and even ransacked the closet. Rupert was not here.
"Where is he? I never take him out and he's not in this room. Gosh! No one could have taken him, no one knows about him! Only you, and the boys know about him anyways.Wait...THE BOYS!" she clenched her fists as she marched over to their cabin.
"Boys!!Open the door right now!" Felicity's voice roared over the boy's cabin. She ignored the stares she got from people in other cabins. She was a girl on a mission, she would destroy anyone that hurt her baby.
"Hey, hey stop knocking, I'm coming Smoak" Oliver said as he hid a mischievous smile. He opened the door trying to mask the smile behind a well formed poker face. He knew she would come.
"What are you screaming about in your angry voice?" Oliver asked innocently as he stretched.
"Move Queen! Where is he? What did you do with him??" Felicity shoved Oliver to the side as she entered the cabin. She ransacked the cabin looking for her stuffed bear.
"What are you talking about Smoak?" Oliver pretended, slightly startled by the reaction she was giving. He hadn't expected her to react that way.
"Rupert. Where is he? He's not in my room and I didn't take him out. Only you two know about him other than Cait.So...where is he Oliver? " she clenched her teeth, picking up on his startled face reaction. She inched up closer to him, trapping him near a wall. Inches apart from his face, she stared him down. Any other day, Oliver would have laughed at this tiny girl trying to intimidate him. Today, he was honestly threatened by the brunette.
"Okie! Fine! He's under the bed. I'm sorry , it was just a prank, don't have to bite my head off!" Oliver barked as he reached under his bed to get the toy. Felicity tried to grab it from him, but to no avail. He hiked up the toy higher and higher just to reel her in.
"Oliver Jonas Queen! You hand him over to me right now ...or ELSE!!" she shouted waving her index finger in his face.
"What will you do Smoak? Here show me" Oliver playfully mocked her,unaware of the storm brewing in her.
Felicity grabbed onto the teddy bear's hand and they struggled to gain control of it.Push came to shove , Felicity fell back onto the hardwood cabin floor with Rupert's left arm in her hand.Silence.She could only stare at the hand in her palm.
"Oh my gosh! Felicity I'm sorry. It was a joke. I'm sorry. I'll get you another one" Oliver said rushing to help her up. She shoved his hand away, teary eyed she stared coldly at him. Oliver almost shuddered, not recognising the look on her face. The icy cold stare she gave him.
"Oliver, never speak to me again," she said coldly as she got up and left the cabin.
AN: Phew! Okie, I know that wasn't fluffy at all. It was needed for where the story was headed.Pleaseee be patient. Camp stories is almost over, will be jumping ages again! Till the next time.
