I think I told you already that I really love the bond between Diggle and Felicity. So this is me writing about it, again. I'll probably do something about the talk they had when she called the engagement off and when he broke up with Carly. And with him on the army. Yes, I have a lot of ideas.
Another thing.. I'm working on this huge fic and I was wondering if any of you would like to help me with it.
WC: 299
I don't own Arrow. *sighs* (because if I did, Oliver and Felicity would be together already and OMG I'm loving season 5 already. Who doesn't love Bratva!Oliver?)
She jumps as she hears the knock on her door.
She's not expecting anyone. Earlier that day she texted them both, saying that she wasn't feeling well and she couldn't come in tonight.
In reality, she isn't ready to face Oliver yet. They've just returned from the island, after locking Slade up, and even though they've talked about it, she's still uneasy about it.
She should've known that at least one of them wouldn't leave it like that.
Looking through the peephole, she releases the breath that she didn't know she was holding.
Opening the door, she smiles at the big man standing in front of her.
"I come bearing gifts"
Leaving the door open, she sits on her couch, waiting as he locks her door behind him.
He walks to the kitchen and, after he retrieves two spoons, he sits next to her.
"How are you feeling?"
She opens the carton of mint chocolate chip and eats before answering. For a moment, she thinks about lying to him.
He raises one eyebrow at her, as if reading her thoughts.
"I'm tired, Digg."
He nods at her. She doesn't explain but she knows she doesn't have too. He knows that she's not talking about anything physical.
"I'm not going to force you to talk about anything if you don't want to, Felicity." - he says, choosing his words very carefully - "But I'm here if you ever want to."
She nods with a watery smile.
He turns the TV on and settles on the couch with her by his side.
She lays her head on his shoulder and with that arm he hugs her, keeping her close to his heart.
Sometime during the second episode of Doctor Who, he hears her sob and holds her just a little tighter.
