"Felicity, are you alright," he said as he approached her very slowly.

The noise startled Felicity to some degree. When she realized it was Oliver standing behind her, with his hands on her bare shoulders, she allowed herself to relax a little, leaning her head against his chest. She could feel his heart beat.

"Oliver, I am fine," she said very calmly. Her back was still turned towards him.

"Then why are you out here, all alone," he asked as he tucked her head underneath his chin.

"I just needed some air, that is all," she answered, taking a deep breath in, in taking his heavenly aroma. "I may have forgot to mention that I am claustrophobic," she ended.

"I am sorry, we can stay out here as long as you want," Oliver spoke as he stroked her hair.

She turned around, "I am okay now, lets go back, people are probably wondering where their gracious host is," she said as she started to turn back towards the door. Before they got to the doors, he leaned in and gave her a gentle yet passionate kiss before she walked back to the party.
