It was one of the rare nights that Felicity came out into the field with the team and she was practically dead on her feet after running non-stop for at the very least five minutes and her life being put in danger at least three times. She knew that it wasn't the best idea to go into the field while still being pregnant and her and Oliver were both reluctant but it was the only way for the mission to work. They had finally gotten back to the apartment and Oliver parked the car and got out of the driver's seat but she didn't seem to be able to move from her seat.
"I don't think that I can move, I think you are going to have to carry me." Felicity opened the door and stuck her arms out as Oliver walked around the car and laughed at her. She was adorable when she was this tired, she was either slap happy or tended to just ramble on and on without being able to stop her, either way Oliver loved it.
"Really? Are your legs suddenly broken and they don't work?" He teased but grimaced suddenly realizing that that might have sounded a little insensitive considering her condition only a few years ago. Felicity looked at him with an eyebrow raised and her face impassive but Oliver could tell that she was too exhausted to be angry or hurt in any way.
"I'm so tired that I am going to pretend that you didn't just make a joke about my legs not working."
"I appreciate the gesture." Oliver smiled and moved in front of her giving her a quick kiss before turning around and bracing himself for her to hop onto his back.
"Alright hop on, your chariot awaits m'lady." Oliver said in a truly awful british accent making Felicity giggle as she smiled and hopped onto Oliver's back and wound her arms around his neck making sure not to choke him. She kicked the car door closed with a swift kick of her foot and Oliver started towards the elevator to take them up to their apartment.
"You should really never do a british accent, you aren't very good at it babe." Felicity smiled and gave him a sloppy kiss to his cheek and he readjusted his grip on her legs so that he wouldn't drop her.
"You know I could let go of your legs and make you walk the rest of the way up, keep teasing me and see what happens missy." They both knew that he was just giving her empty threats and that he would continue to carry until the got up to their bedroom where he more than likely just throw her onto the bed and call it good.
Felicity smiled and laughed some more as she used her toe to skillfully attempt to hit the button for the elevator, however her hand eye coordination wasn't the greatest and she kept missing. Oliver laughed even harder at every attempt that she made that she missed, he nearly dropped her after the fourth time of her missing because he was laughing too much.
Felicity's tongue darted out between her lips as she concentrated and finally on the fifth attempt her foot finally hit the button. She let out a huff of air as if that took all of the energy that she possibly had left.
"We both know that you wouldn't make your pregnant wife walk alllllllll the way up to our apartment, you love me waaaaaay too much for that Oliver." She smiled and lightly patted his chest as the doors to the elevators opened and he stepped inside still holding onto her thighs as she seemed to settle into his back and getting comfortable somehow.
Ever since Felicity had found out she was pregnant two things seemed to immediately follow, she was constantly nauseous and she seemed to be able to fall asleep anywhere no matter where they were. Recently they were on location on a mission and she was in the van keeping tabs on all of them and she somehow fell asleep for five minutes in the thick of the fight. That was when her and Oliver made the decision that maybe she should try and take things easy unless they wanted everyone to find out their little secret.
Oliver made the attempt to push the button for their floor but it proved to be difficult while still giving Felicity a piggyback ride, considering they lived in the penthouse apartment and that button was high up.
"Alright sleepy, you have one more job. You have to press the button for our floor." Oliver said looking sideways at her and her eyes were already hooded with sleep ready to go to bed and probably sleep well into tomorrow morning if she could.
"Oliver we both know that I may be flexible but my foot is not going to reach that button." Oliver threw his head back in laughter at the images that instantly popped into his head. He shook his head and chuckled trying to calm himself down enough to get the words out.
"Felicity, honey, just use your hand to press the button." He shook his had and looked sideways at her as she blushed not having even thought that was an option for some reason.
"Right. I totally knew that was what you meant." Felicity's tongue darted out between her lips in concentration as she stretched and pressed the button for their floor before relaxing into Oliver again.
"You're the best husband ever, my other husband's definitely wouldn't have carried me all of the way up to the apartment." She nuzzled her head into his neck and took a deep breath smelling him and instantly becoming more relaxed.
"Oh yeah? How many other husband's do you have? Should I be worried?" He teased as the elevator continued it's slow trek up to their floor, the longer this ride took the more Felicity was relaxing which meant that she was slowly becoming dead weight against his back.
"No. Nothing to be too worried about, you are definitely my favorite out of all of you." She sighed and smiled as she lightly patted his cheek and gave him a light peck to his neck as the elevator finally made its way to their floor and the doors opened up for them to get out of.
"Oh that makes me feel so better about the status of our relationship." Oliver laughed as he navigated through the halls of their building before finally coming to their door.
"Would it make you feel better if I said that you were the most attractive and handsomest of all of my husbands?" Felicity asked a slight slur in her speech from being exhausted, she was only teasing but she liked seeing the playful and teasing side of Oliver.
"Only slightly, now can you get the keys out of my jacket pocket and unlock the door please?" Oliver asked and smiled and he felt her dig around in his jacket pockets before having to go into the inside jacket pocket and grab the keys.
"You know I specifically remember you saying that I only had one more job before I got to go to bed and unlocking the door was not that job." She teased as she reached up with his keys and unlocked both of the deadbolts, she reached down and opened the door and hearing Archer identify both of them as they walked through the door making Felicity smile to herself.
Oliver kicked the door shut and turned around to relock the door, but before even attempting to lock the door Felicity did it for him making him smile.
"I feel lied to at the moment 'you have one more job' my ass, I seriously feel like I am carrying this entire marriage on my back right now." Felicity mumbled to herself as she laid her head on her arm and let out a tired sigh.
Oliver let out another laugh at the irony of the statement and shook his head as he made his way back to their bedroom.
"Is that so? Because I kind of feel at the moment that I am the one carrying everything on my back." He chuckled and got into their room and deposited her onto their bed and chuckled again at her dramatics as she just laid there as if she just got home from running a marathon.
"Well you aren't anymore now are you mister?" She asked looking up at him with a wink and a chuckle as he rolled his eyes still with a smile on his face as he moved over to the bed and leaned over her and gave her a quick kiss choosing not to respond to her. Instead he reached down and took off her shoes and sat down on the edge of the bed as he began rubbing her feet eliciting a moan from her making him laugh and shake his head.
Oliver let his eyes take account of her body as she laid on the bed her head on his pillow lying diagonally across the bed. He took in the way that her hair lay across his pillow in a golden halo around her head and how she allowed herself to stretch her body out as she got comfortable. He took in the slight bulge of her stomach that only the two of them seemed to notice. She was completely comfortable in presence, he thought back to those years where he thought that this was never possible. Those years wasted thinking that he wasn't ever going to get to have moments like these with her, moments where they were married or even together. He thought that he was only ever going to get to have her in his dreams at night, then there was that year and a half that he had known that he had lost her and he thought that he was never going to get her back. He was still amazed that this was his life, he was married to the most amazing and strong woman who was pregnant with their child. He was always looking around the corner wondering when the other shoe was going to drop and everything was going to be taken away from him.
"Stop thinking so loudly, I can hear you all of the way over here and I am trying to sleep." Felicity said taking Oliver out of his head and focus on her and seeing that she was now looking at him with a sweet smile on her face.
"What's got that look on your face? You have your brooding face on, haven't seen that one in a long while." She teased him and poked his thigh with the foot that he wasn't massaging, she could tell that he had something on his mind.
"I was thinking about how lucky I am to have you, especially after everything that we have been through, thinking about how I used to think that I didn't ever think I was going to be able to have this. A wife with a baby on the way, I didn't think that I was going to be this happy." Oliver stared down at her foot through his admittance until he felt Felicity poke him in the thigh again making him look up at her. She smiled as she sat up and scooted closer to him, she knew that sometimes he would go off on a tangent in his own little world wondering how he got this life. How he got to be so lucky and it often ended with him thinking that he didn't deserve her which broke her heart into a million pieces, mix that with all of the pregnancy hormones and she was bound to be a blubbering mess by the end.
She took his face in both of her hands so that he didn't have a choice but to look at her and look her in the eye. She gave him a small smile as she gently scratched her nails through his stubble.
"You deserve all of this Oliver, it may have come off as teasing or joking in the elevator but you really are an amazing husband. You are constantly there for me and always making sure that I have everything I need, I don't even think you realize you are doing any of the little things to make sure I am comfortable and taken care of. You make sure that I feel loved every chance that you get, you are a truly amazing man, and you are going to make a really amazing dad. You are the most caring, gentle, patient, kind person that I know. I just wish that you could see yourself that I see you, I hate it when you get it into your head that you don't deserve this life that we are building. You deserve this life and so much more baby." Felicity never took her eyes away from his as she talked to him making sure that he heard everything that she was telling him. She needed him to understand this. She had tears in her eyes threatening to spill out, she loved this man with everything that she had and she knew that he felt the same way about her.
Oliver smiled and turned his head in her hands to give her palm a kiss before leaning forward and kissing her putting everything he was feeling into the kiss. He somehow didn't know how to put everything he was feeling into words, he couldn't describe what he was feeling for her in that moment. He just had to kiss her so that she knew that he loved her with everything that he had.
Felicity leaned back and Oliver went with her leaning over and placing all of his weight onto his forearm as his other hand went up her shirt skating over the little bump that was now her stomach. It showed proof that she was in fact carrying their baby and he loved it when they were home alone and she would wear clothes that clung to her and you could obviously tell that she was pregnant.
Felicity moaned and arched her back as she felt Oliver's hand on her bare stomach, ever since becoming pregnant it seemed like whenever Oliver so much as touched her stomach she was instantly turned on. Her exhaustion long forgotten as her hands threaded into his hair and pulled as she deepened the kiss between them, she wrapped her legs around his waist bringing him closer so that she could feel him right where she needed him.
Oliver kissed down Felicity's jawline and down her neck biting gently onto the skin that was there before soothing it with a kiss making Felicity arch her back as he hit a sensitive spot of her neck. She moaned loudly and bit her lip knowing if Oliver really tried he could probably get her off by just that one spot on her neck.
Oliver kissed his way back up her neck and gave her a few quick pecks to her lips before pulling away and just staring down at her. He took in her flushed skin and the way that her chest was moving rapidly up and down from her erratic breathing. He smiled down at her and she smiled right back up at him as she opened her eyes.
"I love you Felicity Queen." He said making Felicity's heart skip a beat as she ran one hand down his jaw and let her nails lightly scratch their way down making his eyes grow dark with lust. She still went by Felicity Smoak professionally in the tech world because that was how most people knew her but legally he was Felicity Queen and she didn't think that she was ever going to get tired of hearing him call her that.
"I love you too Oliver Smoak." She joked with him scratching down his jaw with both of her hands with a huge smile on her face. It had become an inside joke between the two of them that they had just switched last names instead of Felicity taking Oliver's last name.
Oliver leant down again and kissed her like his life had depended on it completely forgetting that either of them had to be at work early the next morning. They spent the whole night making love and seeming to relearn everything that they could about each other's bodies. They had both barely gotten three hours of sleep when their alarms went off the next morning, but it didn't seem to matter much to either of them because they were both the most relaxed that they had been in weeks.
