The birthday party went on as they usually did Felicity was questioned for why she was still ingle and Oliver was attacked by married and single woman. They were both trying to find and escape and when Laurel mentioned that they were going to blow the candles on the cake they both sighed in relief
They were all singing happy birthday once the cake arrived on the table in front of little Sophie. They all clapped as Laurel blew off the candles and Tommy filmed the whole thing as both Felicity and Oliver had sour smiles on.
"Come on I want to take a picture of Sophie with her godparents." Tommy said as he showed to Felicity and Oliver to come closer to the baby girl "Ok on three say Oliver has a widow's peak." Tommy said as Felicity laughed "One, two three." Laurel smiled at her husband as he took the picture and right after that Sophie hits Felicity in the face with the doll as Laurel walks over to the cake with a knife and starts cutting it
Time has passed and spring come around the corner. Felicity and Oliver will never forget that day it will be carved in to their memory forever. They didn't know it yet but tonight was gonna be a night of sorrow and tears.
That morning Oliver took off early for a run like he always did leaving his latest 'girlfriend' alone in bed. Once he got back home he expected the woman to be gone but boy was he wrong. The girl was still in bed naked once her returned
"Hi." She said as Oliver give her a sort of smile and replied with a simple
"Hey." She smiled at him
"You wanna get a late breakfast?" she asked seductively as Oliver walked over to her with a bottle of water in his hand
"Ah no I got to get to the company as soon as possible. I have a meeting." He told her as he walked over to his closet "I have to go shower." He yelled before he exited the closet putting the clean clouts on the chair and leaning in to kiss the girl
"Are you sure about that?" the girl asked once their lips parted
"I'm sure." He said as he made his way to the bathroom "There is coffee in the kitchen. Oh and mugs are in the cabinet." He told the girl who fell to the bed once again as he disappear behind the doors of his bathroom
Felicity on the other hand was already in her office going thure the designe of the softwear.
"It's bad isn't it. I shouldn't have showed you that the whole concept is just wrong." Daniel said as Felicity looked up to him and smiled
"You are a genius. Maybe a bit bipolar but a genius." She told him as she give him a kiss and making her way down to the ground floor and then she stopped. He was back.
"Oh her comes the ours system keeps crashing guy." Daniel said as Felicity pushed the papers to his chest and he just shook his head and she fixed her hair a little as she kicked one on her employs away taking the spot on the casher
"Hi." She said with a big smile as the man returned it and she charger for his batteries "Still having that charger I see." She said
"That obvious." He said as she shrugged
"Maybe you should make somebody see what the problem is." She told him as he laughed
"Yeah I probably should. Hi how come you don't wear one of those badges that says your name so I know what it is?" the man asked as Felicity bushed
"It's Felicity." She told him as he nodded
"Sam." He told her as she handed him the charger and he passed her the money "Well we finally meet after twenty times." He told her as she laughed returning his change and he refused it "Keep it." He told her as he w as about to leave she stops him
"You sure you don't want to throw your card in the ball. Winner gets a gift?" she asked him as went back and threw his card smiling to her "How about dinner on me." He said as he walks to the door and Felicity is about to look in to the bowl when Daniel stops her
"Be cool wait till he is out of sight." He tells her as Felicity looks at Sam walk away from the shop and on to the busy streets of Starling and she digs her hand in to the bawl searching for a card with his name on it
"Oh which one was it?" she asked as she looks at the cards "Ok this is a Benjamin. Oh here is a Sam." She said as she pulled out the card
"You know I could pick one up for you…" Daniel says as Felicity still looks threw the cards
"How many Sam's are in this city?" she asks as she keeps looking threw the cards as Daniel shook his head at his boss
Felicity was spending that evening in the bath tub trying to find Sam with little luck. There was a married Sam, and a woman Sam the last one was a doctor and it was the last one so her hopes were really high that it was him
"Sam Nelson. Dr. Sam Nelson this is Felicity Smoak form Smoak inc. and I'm really hoping that you are the Sam I have talked to today. If you are not then…then I'm screwed. Because you are the last Sam who put his card in the bowl for the free gift." She said as she laughed and then her phone biped "Oh I'm sorry I'm getting another call." She said hanging up and answering the other phone call " Hello." She listened to the person on the other line "Yes this is she." She told them her happy mood going down in seconds.
Once she hung up with the officer who had called her to notify her that Tommy and Laurel had died in a car accident she got out of the tub dressed herself to get to the station soon as possible.
"Excuse me I'm looking for an officer Young?" Felicity said as the policeman on the front door pointed her in to the right direction
"The highway patrol officers found your name and member on an insurance contact card in her wallet.." The officer standing in front of her said as Felicity could not believe her best friend and her husband were dead "Now, we need numbers for the nearest next of kin."Officer Young said as Felicity tried to be brave and not cry in front of him "Can you supply those?" he asked her cheerfully
"Yeah…Laurel's dad is …a police Captain …her mom lives in Central…her sister…Oh God Peat's dead." She said as she sighed and her voice shaking "How did you say the car flipped? It flipped when it hit the...?" Felicity started as she broke down in tears
"Are you sure I wouldn't like to sit down?" the officer asked as Felicity looked up at him realizing something
"They…they had a baby girl Sophie. Was she in the car? Was she in the car with them?" she asked as tears filled her eyes
"No. She was in the care of a minor, a babysitter, at the time of the accident. So the officers placed her with CPS for the night. She's perfectly fine." Officer Young said as Felicity nodded calming herself down
"CPS?" she asked her brain not functioning at the time while she wiped the tear form her cheek
"Child Protective Services. Where they take cases like this." He said as Felicity looked at him in confusion
"Cases like this?" she asked the officer
"Orphaned children." The man said as Felicity nodded as officer Young left her alone. She didn't know what to do who to call. If she called Captain Lance she was sure to brake and calling her mother right now was out of the question and as for Sarah well let's just say that calling anybody form the Lance family would be a bad move. So since Tommy didn't have any family she called the one person who was kind of his family. Oliver Queen.
In about ten minutes Oliver was parking his bike in front of the station looking for Felicity who had not stopped crying since officer Young left her. Once she noticed Oliver enter the station she yelled his name
"Oliver!" at the sound of his name being called he turned to look at the broken blond in front of him. Her eyes were puffy and red from crying her nose was becoming red as well as she walked over to him "Oliver they are gone." She said as she hugged him and without even noticing it Oliver returned the embrace
"Hey it's ok." He told her as he held her tight and she started crying in to his shirt once more. After they talked they decided to spend the night in Laurel and Tommy's house to wait for the news off Sophie and try and contact CPS tonight if they could see her.
The house looked so lonely when they entered it. It was as if somebody had ripped the happiness out of it. They turned on the lights and Felicity took the set on the couch
"I don't know how I'm going to tell this to her family. This is going to brake them." Felicity said as Oliver sat next to her
"I know. Do you know if Laurel and Tommy had a will?" Oliver asked as Felicity shook her head
"I have no idea." She told him as she sighed "What's going to happen to Sophie now?" she asked as Oliver said nothing to her question "I mean Sarah can't take her she is still in her crazy years, and Laurel dad…he is never home so who would look out for Sophie." She said
"What about Laurel's mum?" Oliver asked Felicity who sighed
"I don't think that would be a good idea. She works as a professor of law at the university in Central city." She said as Oliver sighed and Felicity looked at him "I'm gonna call CPS to see if we can see her tonight."
Felicity picked up the phone and dialed the number asking for permission to see Sophie tonight but they wouldn't let her
"No, no, no. I just don't understand why we can't see her tonight." Felicity argued with the woman on the phone "No, ma'am, I don't care about your protocol. This is-" Felicity said as the woman on the other end interrupted her "Yes, I will be here at this number. Yes." As she hung up she looked over at Oliver who was watching her "They won't do anything, not till 8 a. m. tomorrow." Felicity said in frustration as Oliver got up on his feet
"Okay, okay. I'm sure that she's fine." Oliver said reassuring her as she nodded "You know, why don't we sleep here tonight?" he suggests "That way we're here if they call early. All right?" Oliver asked as Felicity nodded her head in agreement
"Okay." Was all Felicity could say
"Why don't you take the guest bedroom?" Oliver offered as Felicity sighed and nodded
"Okay, you can take their room if you want." At that Oliver shook his head
"No, thank you. I'll sleep over here." he said pointing to the couch as Felicity nodded almost walking out of the room
"See you in the morning." She told him as he nodded his head "And Oliver." She started as he turned his head to face her once more "Thank you." Oliver just give her a nod before he saw her go up the stair in the guest bedroom and he made his way to the couch. The first moment they both lied down the only thing in their mind was 'Why them?' as sleep slowly took over them.
