So here is the next chapter. Not very much Felicity but something else. I chose the middle name Gage because I love it. If I would have had boys for children I would have named one of them Alexxander Gage. I own nothing and I do not have a beta, all mistakes are mine.

Dean's POV

Felicity was resting while the baby was in the nursery. All the guys were looking at Colt through the window. Dean couldn't get over it, he was a father. He didn't want his child raised like he was. Always on the move and with nothing to call home. Granted him and Sam were stationary when they were not on a hunt but they were always on a hunt. Dean glanced at Oliver. Could Oliver give her and their child what they needed? Oliver was here and he was not. He wasn't blind, he saw the way that Oliver looked at Felicity. Dean knew that look, he also looked at her that way. He just knew that he couldn't be there. Crowley was out and he knew that over time more and more Demons would make their way to the surface again. Once it was out that Dean Winchester had a child, Colt would never be safe. It wasn't only that but if they brought him back the Angels also knew that he had a son. A new vessel and another way to keep Angels around. He may be a righteous man but he could not put that on his son. He was going to talk to Oliver. They needed to have a heart to heart and even though Dean hated those kinds of talks, this one needed done.

Oliver POV

They were a family. Whatever happens in their lives they were a family. He loved Felicity and her son so much that he didn't know what he was going to do. He saw Dean glance at him. I wonder what he is thinking. Dean is this boys' father and Felicity's lover. He hated that but didn't think that was going to change. Today was a weird one. Dean was supposed to be dead. How was he back? Is this one of those things that were never going to be explained? Even Felicity thought he was a ghost at first. He saw Dean's body when he and Sam went to put him in there. He was flat out dead. Then hours later he pops up with Cas and he is there for Felicity. Weird. Not bad at all but still weird.

Dean and Oliver

A couple hours later Oliver had announced that he needed to hood up and see what was going down in the Glades. Felicity made sure that he had his key for the house and told him to be careful. Dean said that he wanted to check some things out and he was going to head over there with Oliver. He didn't really need to check anything, he needed to talk to Oliver.

Once they were in the car an awkward silence settles over them. Dean didn't know where to begin. "Oliver…"

"Yeah?"

"You are in love with Felicity." Oliver whipped his head around to stare at the man. "It is ok. It is what I want to talk to you about."

Oliver didn't want to have this conversation. It couldn't be anything but bad. He wasn't going to lie though, his life was surrounded by lies. "Yeah, I do. I don't do anything about it though because I don't think she loves me back. I mean I have seen you together and only a blind person could not see the way that you love each other."

"That may be true but there are things in this life that can't be."

"I thought that once. I thought because of the life that I lead I could not be with someone I care about."

"Then you understand where I am coming from. I love Fee. I love our child. I just can't be the father I need to be. I raised Sammy on the road because our Dad kinda checked out. I don't want to burden Felicity with knowing that I cannot be what she wants. There are things out there that if they found out that I had a child, more than likely it will happen, but when they find out I have a son, he will be in danger. He is a vessel just like I am for an angel. Granted that Angel is trapped and won't be getting out anytime soon but the Demons are trying to find a way back out of hell. I have more than enough enemies at the things I have done. He will never be safe with me."

"What are you talking about?"

"Oliver, this child needs to stay hidden for as long as possible. I have never been vulnerable except for Sammy. If my child dies because of me it is not something I will be able to come back from. I can't allow for that to happen."

"What do you want from me?" Oliver definitely didn't know where this conversation was going.

"I need you to take care of them. I will be around but I can't be a father. You have the ability to be what I can't."

"I was already going to protect them with the best of my abilities."

"I know. Felicity has surrounded herself with some of the best people for her. Now my son needs that. I am not the best for my son. Him having the Winchester name is going to stir trouble and I need to know that you are going to be there for both of them."

"I already told you I would be. Dean just spit out what you are trying to say."

"What I am saying is that Felicity does love you. She can be happy with you. My son can be raised in a loving home with two people who know what the score is and I could not be happier about it. Granted if my life wasn't what it was I would do anything and everything to be there day to day but that is just not who I am."

"What you are trying to tell me is that you want me to raise your child as my own. What next? DO you want me to marry Felicity?"

"Would that be out of the realm of possibility?"

"I think that you need to talk to Felicity. I can't make her decisions. She will yell and say my life my choice."

"I understand that. I will be talking to Felicity as well. She already knows that I can't be there for her every step of the way. We have talked about that but I wanted to talk to you to see where you stood in all of this. Trust me, I hate these conversations and avoid them at almost all cost."

"Look, I would love to marry Felicity and be everything that she needs me to be but it is her choice. I do love her, I would do anything for her, but …"

"She makes her own choices. I get it."

They arrived at Felicity's. Dean went to her office to look up some things. Oliver was very much in his head right then. As he was getting his gear on her couldn't help but think of what someone would do to protect those that they loved. He would lay his life on the line if it was himself. Dean was doing this to protect his child. He could not fault the man for what he thought was best. He wasn't abandoning them but giving them the best option for their lives. He can see it and understand it. He just hoped that when Dean talked to Felicity that she saw it that way as well. He really didn't want to be there for that conversation either. Oliver was ready to face the glades. He became the Arrow and did his job. He could worry about the conversation later.

Dean called Sam to come and get him and take him back to the hospital. He wanted to spend as much time as he could with her before they figured out why he was back and what they wanted this time. He and Sam were going to have to go into research mode and find out why.

Sam showed up and took him back to the hospital. They didn't have to talk about the elephant in the room because they had the same questions. They arrived back at the hospital and made their way to the maternity ward and Felicity's room. When they got there, the air in his lungs got stuck. She was breast feeding Colt. He never understood why most men say that it is the most beautiful and arousing thing in the world. Now he did. She was beautiful. They looked beautiful. He finally let the breath out in a whoosh and she turned and smiled at him. "Do you want to hold him?"

"Very much." He moved over and she placed him in his arms. He wiggled a little and then settled down. "He is beautiful."

Sam who was quiet up to this point said, "He is going to be a handsome devil down the road." He started taking pictures with his phone. He could find a place to develop them later. Dean should have a keep sake.

"Well between you and me, he will be just like his father and charm all the ladies." She mock whispered to Sam.

"Yes, but will he use his powers for good or evil." Sam laughed along with Dean and Felicity.

"Hey, I am not that bad."

"Of course not Dean. We won't mention the teen years." Sam told him.

They sat in silence with the baby. They didn't get many moments like this in their lives. They were soaking up the pure love in the room. That is when Cas decided to pop in.

"Can I see the child?" Cas asked.

"Sure Cas." Dean handed the child over. Cas started to glow and chant in enochian. The baby glowed for about three seconds and everything was back to normal.

"Cas? What was that about?" Felicity asked.

"I was blessing the child. He is young enough that marking him against Angels and Demons won't hurt him at this age, in his early years. They will be there forever. Just like on Sam and Dean, he will be invisible to all Angels and Demons. Just like I marked Dean and Sam. They are etched into his bones. Be careful in the future when doing medical things in a hospital, they will be able to see if they do x-rays."

Dean was thankful. He could be hidden. Granted there were ways to find them if they ever found out who he was but it would take a long time. He breathed a sigh of relief. "Felicity, I want you to get him tattooed at the best possible time against possession. He doesn't need to know why until he is older but I want it done."

"I was already planning that. Wondering if maybe the foot."

"I say shoulder." This coming from Sam.

"I can work with that." She said. She will do anything to protect her child. "It will be done."

Two days later, she and the baby were released from the hospital. They were finally going home. They got settled in and Raisa was just so happy that she and the baby were home. The nursery was put together and waiting. Felicity handed the baby over so Raisa could see him and she sat down on the couch. Dean was sitting across from her. "Fee, we need to talk."

So what did you think about the conversation between Dean and Oliver? They got some one on one time and they didn't throw punches. Leave your reviews, like I said I love hearing from you.
