Hey guys. Man I read those reviews and decided I HAVE to write the next chapter. It wasn't the right thing to do to leave the story hanging just because some people gave me bad reviews. But the reviews I did read were awesome and gave me the boost I needed.

Speacial mention and thanks to the reviewers: ANASTASIA your words were just superb and kinda made me tear up. Thank you love.

ONETREEFAN: Always reading my story and commenting. It makes me happy all the time :)

GUNNERBOB76: Your review really touched me, thanks for reading my story all in one go. You have no idea how jumpy and happy I feel. I took your advice included and pushed aside all the haters. Thanks Sarah :) And its nice to know someone agrees Felicity should date other people.

GUEST: Who ever you are thanks for your heartfelt words in the review you gave me. Made me so happy and gave me a good push to not give two shits about pleasing everyone.

This chapter is long and awesome to write. A huge crazy ending is there. So please enjoy. Reviews are very welcome and make my life.

Felicity's heart stopped. It was a blunder and it was all on her.

"Bruce, this is restricted area. You can't be here. There must be some mistake." Felicity tried to get the situation under control but Bruce wasn't even blinking as he turned around to see the glass case with Oliver's arrow suit, phone beeping away. He quickly turned it off and stood there like some statue.

Complete silence dragged on for what seemed like forever. This was the longest silence she had to endure in her entire life probably.

Felicity was trying to say something more but nothing came out of her mouth.

"Is Oliver the Arrow?" Escaped Bruce's mouth after a long time. It was a whisper and Felicity was sure she heard it.

No answer.

"Oliver is the arrow isn't he?" Bruce asked once again, slightly louder than the last time.

Felicity dropped her head down and sighed closing her eyes. "Yes."

"You work for him?" Bruce was wandering around the lair near his quiver on the table.

"Yes." Felicity bit her lip. She was so busted.

"Look Bruce, we need to leave before Oliver comes back. A lot of people already know his identity and I don't want to cause another rift." Felicity blurted out very quickly.

He turned to look at her for a brief moment. "Rift? Is everything ok with you and Oliver?" He sounded angry. The thought of Oliver yelling or making Felicity feel like shit was not a great idea in his mind.

"Everything is fine. Let's get out of here before things blow out of proportion Bruce. Trust me on this one." Felicity was ready to beg if she had to.

"Ok, Felicity. But why are you hack…"

"Felicity!" Oliver shouted. "Why is the lair open? Didn't you lock it?" Oliver came down the stairs and his face looked certainly angry to see the scenario.

"What the hell is going on?" Oliver's teeth were gritted and his fingers curled up to probably punch Bruce in 10.5 seconds or less.

Bruce was angry too. His face turned to a bad shade of red. Both men were angry and Felicity's face was flushed.

"FELICITY!" Oliver yelled, his voice echoed through the unbearable silence of the lair.

"Oliver I can explain." Felicity hand was up in defence.

"I would like an explanation myself." Bruce was angry too. Oliver gave a cold stare at Bruce, pissed.

"Why are you here Bruce?" Oliver spat out.

Bruce shrugged, "I'm here because someone is hacking into my phone and it seems to be none other than Felicity for reasons I don't know why." Bruce yelled back at Oliver, hands crossed across his chest.

"Hey, you watch your tone with me." Oliver growled back pointing a finger at Bruce's face.

"And why would I even listen to you?" Bruce threw back, irritated at the tone Oliver was taking to him and Felicity.

"Because this is my lair and I make the damn rules, Bruce. Get out before I kill you or something." Oliver threatened, hands up to punch his face. He didn't know if he was angry Bruce was in the lair or he was flirting with Felicity.

Bruce let out a sarcastic grin. "You're really going to punch me Oliver? C'mon. Don't be dumb."

"Trust me I'm not dumb." Oliver tried to reach for an arrow but Bruce quickly swiped it off the table and threw it and landed on the concrete floor.

"My reflexes are faster than you think Oliver." Bruce huffed, jaws clenched together.

"Well than why don't you show me how good you really are Bruce. Since your ego is way up your ass." Oliver mocked not knowing the consequences of that statement.

"You really want to pick a fight with me Oliver? How am I not surprised?" Bruce cooly said as he took off his black coat and placed it on the metal table. Felicity couldn't help looking at how fitting the dress shirt clung on his masculine body. She shook it off immediately.

"I don't wanna pick a fight, your making me pick the fight." Oliver retorted back.

"Really Oliver. Tell me. What's really bothering you? The fact I'm in the lair or I'm going out on a date with Felicity. You sure as hell have a problem with me having any type of contact with Felicity." Bruce explained while he folded up the sleeves of his shirt.

Oliver's face turned red and he scrunched his brows together. "Don't you dare bring Felicity in the argument. I don't care if you date her. But if you don't keep her safe? Yea, then I have an issue."

"So now it's about her safety?"

Oliver turned to Felicity. "You've been telling him everything? First Barry now Bruce? What is this, you tell every guy you date about the work we do?"

"I haven't been telling him anything Oliver." Felicity tried to fight back. Her voice clearly was not reaching the pitch she wanted.

"You always do this Felicity." Oliver started yelling at her again for the Nth time this week.

"DO WHAT?" Felicity was yelling for her life now.

"Do what? Tell people your secret? First of all I don't do that. This thing is a mistake. You hear me a mistake. I was trying to find intel and check Bruce's phone record for you and by chance by the mistake I MADE. You hear me? My mistake he came in here." Felicity was now face to face with Oliver spitting out all those words in shear anger at how Oliver was treating her for the past week.

"What if he went to the police after this? Went to Gotham to give out my secret which was never yours to tell in the first place?" Oliver's face was just a few meters away from Felicity's face.

Bruce was observing their argument closely. He was still angry at the fact Felicity hacked into his phone records.

Bruce placed a hand on Oliver's shoulder and turned him around to face him. "I'm not going to the police ok? So stop yelling at her." He hissed through gritted teeth.

"Take your hands off of me NOW." Oliver looked at Bruce's hand on his shoulder. He didn't budge.

"Since we're on the same subject, Why did you hack my phone records Felicity?" Bruce tried not to sound pissed but the anger was rising. He hated things like this happening in the first place.

"I..I did it because half the banks in Starling city were being robbed and when we got one guy's laptop and phone records, your number was the only frequent number dialled. Ok?" Felicity asked him, exasperated.

Bruce looked at her hard. Oliver was still grunting.

"Do you want to explain why you were talking to those thugs? Oliver asked, calming down a little.

"I agree I was talking to them but it was because these guys found out I was in Starling, their boss wanted me to fund a project which gave a cure for curing cancer. I never accept a deal without researching myself so I found out that the cure was bogus. The money is for buying fire arms illegally." Bruce was saying.

Oliver sighed.

"Now you get why I hacked your phone?" Felicity asked slowly to Bruce. His anger had subsided and his beautiful face came back to neutral.

"I rejected the deal but they kept calling me back to accept and even threatened me. I don't have the resources to get these guys down here so I called them back whenever they asked me too." Bruce half lied to both of them. If he was caught here in Starling city as Batman, there wouldn't be any disgrace worse than that.

"Yes I do Felicity, I'm really sorry I yelled at you before." Bruce let his head lay low.

"Bruce, I don't want you to say anything about this to anyone. You hear me?" Oliver nudged him with less force.

"I won't. I can keep a secret." Bruce replied still not warming up to Oliver.

"It's quite the setup you've got here Oliver." Bruce was commenting on all the weapons, computers and monitors.

"Felicity was the one who helped set it up."

"Nice work Felicity." Bruce complimented her. She had settled in a chair and looked disappointed.

"Thanks. I did all of this when Oliver left for 5 months with the money he had left me." She recounted the day she felt shitty that Oliver had left after the undertaking. She spent nights trying to track him down. Nights spent on weeping for Oliver. While checking her bank account she had found 1 million dollars in her bank account.

She tried to track down the donor and realised it was Oliver. He had deposited the same amount for Digg too.

Felicity had caught his attention. He never knew she redid the lair with the money he had given her.

"You did this? Why didn't you tell me?" Oliver softly asked Felicity.

"Because you had your own problems and it just didn't seem important." She remembered how focused he was trying to find Thea's abductors.

He nodded, quietly thanking her. He still didn't feel what she did was right but maybe it was time to rethink his whole relationship with her.

It was 8 by the time the argument had receded. "I need to leave. I have a plane to catch Felicity." Bruce spoke up looking at his watch.

Felicity had settled into a chair and looked up at him. "Oh god it's 8 already." Oliver now had turned his attention to the both of them. He was feeling agitated that Bruce had been on his secret.

"Maybe we'll meet another time Felicity?" Bruce took her small hands in his and her cheeks like fire just flamed to a bright red.

Oliver turned away from their moment and left to wear his arrow gear, they still had to do some arrowing. He could use Bruce's help to catch the boss of the gang who tried to contact him but it was something his team was capable of doing.

He didn't mean to eavesdrop but his heart couldn't help it.

"I'm sorry for all the mess Bruce. I wanted to talk about this situation at the Verdant but you got to know about in the worst way possible. And I'm sorry for that."

"Hey, hey. Don't say sorry. If someone has to say sorry it's me. I should have never been angry at you." Bruce cooed. Felicity stood up and they were face to face.

Oliver went to take his shirt from the draw and he saw Bruce still holding her hand and making small circles on her forehand that made his stomach lurch with jealousy.

He saw the way they looked at each other and he could see why Felicity would be friends with Bruce. He was not like what others even portrayed him to be.

"Take care of yourself ok?" Felicity told him sincerely, her brows furrowed as she looked at him worried and hurt.

"I will. Come down to Gotham sometime. I've actually brought down some cool computers that aren't in the markets yet." Bruce remembered and smiled crookedly at her knowing she would geek out even looking at them.

Her face lit up. "Seriously? I definitely need to see them then." They both laughed together for a moment.

Bruce took deep breath. "I'll see you then. Walk me out?"

"Uh huh."

"Oliver, I'll see you soon. Tell your mother I said thanks for calling me down here. It's a pleasure to be here." Bruce thanked him while looking at Felicity.

"Yea, thanks for coming down then." Oliver gave him a hand. Bruce shook it back.

"Keep up the good work. Starling City needs a hero." He grinned and exited the lair holding Felicity hand.

Oliver watched them go feeling hurt and lost.

*Outside of the lair*

It was cold and the breeze was lightly blowing Felicity's hair. She looked so beautiful. It was tough to breath for Bruce.

He kept looking at her. "What are you looking at?" Felicity asked wearing her coat. "Nothing." He smiled lightly and helped her pull the coat over her.

"Soooo, it's goodbye then?"

"It's goodbye for now." Felicity corrected him. "Yeah, sorry. Mistake duly noted." He grinned.

"You look beautiful Felicity." He said out of the blue.

"You're very charming. Have I told you that?" Felicity teased, big grin on her face. Her lips looked more pink than before.

He looked doubtful. "People have told me that before Felicity. Too bad you're not the first."

Felicity sighed and smiled at him. "Thanks Bruce. Really."

"It's been amazing meeting you Felicity Smoak." He said while taking a loose strand and putting it back behind her ear. Her hands were in her pocket, slightly muffled by the cold weather.

"I'm glad I got to know you." She said and took the scarf Bruce had in his hand and put it around his neck.

"Yeah, me too. We could totally use you in Gotham, your al…" Before he could say anything else Felicity pulled the ends of the scarf causing Bruce to move forward and kissed him. It was first soft and Bruce was slightly shocked she kissed him but gave in and after searching each others lips, feeling every crevice Felicity wrapped her hands around his neck and kissed him harder. His hands entwined around her waist and slowly made way to her face.

She smiled while kissing him as he started kissing her around her jaw and down her neck as he pulled the jacket she was wearing off her shoulders. Felicity could feel her body warming up with every kiss as he started kissing her back up from her neck, his lips finding hers again.

He lifted her off the ground as she kissed him to come up to his height. It was so touching with the breeze blowing through her hair. They both didn't want the time to stop.

After a moment Felicity was out of breath. She rested her forehead against his chest. "If we're going to keep doing this, you're never gonna go home. Not that I want you to go home. I would love it if you could stay here."

He chuckled and Felicity could feel the rumbling of his chest. She looked up at him.

"I need to go." Bruce said and looked back at her.

Oliver had come out by then, to see Bruce and Felicity embracing each other. He knew he had to leave but didn't, they were standing a few yards away from him but Felicity was shorter than him to notice Oliver and he could hear them if they said anything.

"Remember you wanted to tell me something on the phone? You want to tell me now?" Bruce prompted her. She had an offer for him.

"Yeah. I do." She reached up to kiss him again.

"I want to come with you to Gotham." She breathed against his lips.

Oliver had heard it for his heart to go into emotional shock of losing Felicity to another man.
