"I don't trust her." Oliver said, putting his suit back into its case. Felicity and Dig stood awkwardly by a table as Oliver lectured me about my love life.

"I don't care if you don't trust her, I do" I say.

"Sarah, she poisoned Laurel, kidnapped your mother, and almost killed me".

"Everyone's fine now." I said, getting an eyeroll from him. "Look, Nyssa loves me, but she doesn't really know how to deal with love very well"

"Yeah, clearly."

"Oliver, this isn't up to you. I love her, and that's that." I say, leaving the basement and exiting the club.

I spent last night with Nyssa down in Oliver's lair, but when I woke up this morning, she was gone. I do trust her, it's just hard dealing with someone who disappears all the time.

Nyssa said she hasn't heard from her father yet, but he won't be happy to learn that she released me from the League and that she won't be returning anytime soon. She said that she don't think he'll do anything, considering she is his daughter, but I won't be so easy to assume, we were in a League of Assassins after all.

"Sarah." I turn around, and there she is again. Only this time, she's in her normal outfit, hand on her blade, and a face full of anger.

"Nyssa, what's wrong?" I say, walking over and laying my hand on her hip.

"I must go."

"What? Why?"

"It's complicated." she says, pulling me closer.

"Complicated? What's happened, you know you can tell me"

She sighs, relaxing a little. "It's my father. He's gotten word about you being released and about me not coming back. He has sent someone..."

"Someone after me? It's fine Nyssa, we'll deal with it. He's sent many people after me and I'm fine" I say, trying to smile.

"Not for you, Sarah. For me."

"What? You're his daughter"

"He said that I will either be in the League or die. He knows about you and you're family. If I leave, you and them will be fine. It's better this way Sarah."

"No. No it isn't Nyssa. I can't... you can't just leave." I say, embracing her.

"I must. But I will return, I promise." She says, pulling back so we were face to face. She wrapped her hand behind my head and pulled me into her. She kissed me hard, and I kissed her back, the tears streaming down my face. I didn't care that we were in the middle of a street, or that someone could see, I just wanted to feel her. She tugged on my bottom lip as she pulled away. She stared at me, wiping a tear from the corner of my eye. "I love you Sarah" She says.

"I love you too. Please Nyssa, stay."

"I can't risk your life Sarah, I wouldn't."

"It's my life, and I can't live it without you. I thought that maybe I could lean on my family, but even when I'm with them, I'm thinking of you. Your hair running through my fingers, your soft skin, that faint smile I get to see every now and then" She smiled "See? How can you leave?" I asked. She looked at me, and I could see her calculating the situation in her head. Whenever she thought hard about something, she drifted off into space, and her eyebrow always lifted slightly.

"I can stay one more day. Then, we'll see what happens from there okay?" I nod happily, kissing her quickly.

"Good, because I want you to meet some people." I say, smiling.

"Like who?" She asks, smirking.

"Like my dad and mom and sister. Maybe Oliver, and Dig, and Felicity."

"I already met most of them" She says.

"I know, but I want them to meet the real you, not the assassin."

"Okay." She says.

"Okay." I say, taking her hand.
