I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has read, reviewed, favourite and followed this story – it means a lot to me I decided to change the plot so I had to re-write the end of this chapter and delete the other chapters…I haven't finished the next chapter yet. But I feel more confident about it and I think it makes more sense! This will be the last update before Christmas and there should be another one up before New Year! I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and I shall talk to you soon!

Chapter 5

Today was the day that Sara and Felicity were going to lunch with Sophie. They got up at 6 and went for an hour long run and the Felicity headed to work whilst Sara went to go and see Laurel and her father.

1 o'clock came round pretty quickly and Sara came to meet Felicity at her office.

'Wow, nice office!' Sara shouted and she walked into the large space and headed towards her desk.

'Thank you' Felicity got up from her desk, grabbed her purse and gave Sara a hug and then they walked out of her office together.

'You ready?' Sara said as she pushed the button of the elevator. 'As I will ever be' and with that they walked to the café around the corner of QC.

They walked in and spotted her instantly, she was sat in the corner and she looked like she was modelling the coffee cup she was drinking. They walked over to her and she lifted her head and recognised Felicity.

'Felicity hi! And you must be Sara it's great to finally meet you' they took a seat as Sophie greeted them.

'Likewise' Sara smiled sweetly as she grabbed a menu from the table.

'I've heard so much about you both and I just want to get to know you so that we can be friends, I know this may seem weird because you are both Ollie's exes but he speaks so well about how you are both such good friends, I want to be friends with his friends'

'That's really sweet and you seem really nice from what Ollie has told us about you, it would be nice to get to know you better' Sara smiled as she spoke and then looked to Felicity who looked stunned from the 'exes' comment.

'Same here but just so you know, Oliver and I have never dated. We are just friends' Felicity tried not to look at Sara as she spoke because she knew that she was smirking.

'Oh really, from the way he talked about you I just presumed'

'Nope, just friends' she smiled and Sophie returned it and then they ordered some lunch.

They talked about each other's jobs and Sara told her about Nyssa and how she was coming to Starling next week and told her about Laurel and her father. Felicity talked about her job as head of I.T and about her mother who was living in Vegas. They had just finished and were waiting for the bill when Sophie talked about her job and then about Oliver.

'Yeah the job is going well at the moment and Oliver is going to be moving in during the next couple of weeks, so that's something to look forward to'

Felicity was shocked into silence, he really did love her. He had never made that commitment with anyone. She tried to say something but no words would leave her mouth, which was weird because this is the exact situation where she would babble.

Then she felt a hand on her leg, which was Sara's. She was letting her know that she would handle it. 'Wow that is a big step, we're happy for you both'

After that they said their goodbyes and that they would see each other soon and then Sara and Felicity headed back to QC.

The walk was silent; Sara didn't really know what to say to Felicity. But then as they reached her office they both crashed on the couch and Felicity broke the silence.

'He really loves her. He has never taken that step with anyone' Felicity started as she chewed a pen nervously.

'Even though he might be ready to make that step it doesn't necessarily mean that he is doing it with the right person'

Felicity looked up and raised an eyebrow at Sara. 'I've got to move on. I have told him how I feel and he obviously has never felt the same way or is going to. I need more out of life than being the girl who waits for the unthinkable to happen, help me move on Sara'

Sara grabbed her hand and wiped the tears from her cheek. 'Ok, first step is team arrow going clubbing. It will be like a reunion except you're going to look so hot that you'll have a line of men waiting for you'

Felicity laughed as Sara lifted her up and dragged her out of the office. Sara loved doing this type of thing and Felicity wanted a night out so it was a win-win situation. Sara text the boys saying that they would meet at verdant at 9pm and it was a night off arrow duties, she then sent another text to liver saying they were going shopping and that Felicity wouldn't be back at work. The boys replied fairly quickly saying they were looking forward to the reunion and that they would see them later.

It took them both about 3 hours to find the perfect dresses and then took them even longer to get ready. But by 8:30pm they were completely ready and had eaten plenty of pizza whilst getting ready. Sara picked out a beautiful purple dress which had a plaited silver neckline and then the dress followed down to her waist and then there was a tight strip from there to high-thigh. She had wavy hair and nude lips and finished it off with silver heels and a matching clutch. Felicity was wearing a black dress which had a plain black neckline which then turned to mesh leading down to her chest and then it stopped and the dress continued and finished at high-thigh like Sara's. She had her hair lightly curled and wore the same nude lipstick as Sara; she had nude heels and clutch to finish off the look. They called a cab and were ready to go.

When they arrived at verdant the boys had a booth sorted and were having a drink. They headed towards them and slid into the booth whilst they watched all 3 boys' jaws drop when they looked at them.

'You both look so hot!' Roy said just before he took a sip of his drink, which made both girls laugh before dig complemented them and then Oliver was still in shock.

'You both look beautiful'

'Thanks' they said in unison. They were sat around a round table. Oliver sat on the end and then Dig was next to him followed by Roy, Felicity and Sara. Sara fist bumped Felicity under the table as they accomplished the look and Roy smirked at them as did Dig and Oliver was clueless.

The boys got the girls drinks and they caught up as this was the first time they got to talk without being on patrol. After about an hour Sara and Felicity moved onto the dance floor with Roy whilst Dig and Oliver watched from the side-lines.

'You're an idiot' dig spoke as he sipped his drink.

'What are you on about?' Oliver had a really bad poker face.

'You're in love with Felicity'

'I am with Sophie'

'Yes you are with Sophie, but you are in love with Felicity'

Oliver was speechless; he hated it when Diggle was right. 'I will just put her in danger'

'I hope you know that its killing her, the fact that she doesn't know that you meant it at the mansion is stupid and you need to tell her. Plus how do you think she feels knowing that you will date other women who have no idea who you really are, she is right there and accepts every part of you and you just push her away. Look at her; she is trying to move on from you, what are you going to do about it?'

'Nothing, she deserves to be happy and I'm with Sophie'

'Man you are a stubborn idiot. You know I'm right and denying it isn't going to help the situation'

Oliver just downed the rest of his drink and Dig just chuckled to himself whilst they watched the other 3 dancing.

Sara noticed Dig and Oliver having an intense conversation and hoped that he would talk some sense into him. The three of them were dancing until a guy walked up to Felicity and asked her to dance and she accepted. Sara gave her the look whilst she continued dancing with Roy. Roy and Sara glanced over to Oliver when he saw the guy sweep felicity away and he had his jealous face on and then laughed before walking over to where he was standing.

'Are you jealous now Ollie?' Sara teased as she did a shot with Roy.

Oliver just clenched his jaw and ignored them.

Then Sara looked over and Felicity and her new guy friend and they were standing at the bar and were very close and they were hitting it of great. Then he whispered something in her ear and she giggled and whispered something back.

Oliver then moved and started walking towards them where Sara and Roy stopped him before he could even move a metre.

'You cannot do that to her, you have no right' Sara had her canary face on. 'She deserves to move on with her life and be happy, let her have fun'

Oliver then turned around and went to sit in the booth but as he turned to apologize to Sara he looked back at the bar and saw the guy she was with lean down and kiss her and she responded.

That was it, he was done and he walked straight over to the bar, pulled them apart and then punched him straight in the face. Dig, Roy and Sara never got a chance to stop him.

'Ray, are you ok?'

She then looked up at Oliver and gave him such and angry and hurt look. 'We need to talk' was all she managed to spit out before getting Ray some ice telling the others that she would see them tomorrow and Sara at home before she went down to the foundry.

Oliver was stood in the middle of the foundry and as she walked up to him he looked as if he wasn't going to apologise but as he went to speak she cut him off by punching him in the face.

'I deserved that' he managed to say as he recovered from her very hard punch. He then went to speak but then she put up a hand to stop him.

'Damn right you deserved that! I once told you that we were unthinkable, you want to know why? Because you don't fight for me; you have fought for everything that you want in your life. You fought for Laurel, Helena, McKenna and Sara, but when it comes to me you give up. That is why I left after the siege; I needed to fight for myself because no one ever has'

'We were never unthinkable'

Her breath hitched and she a sudden intake of breath; now she had no idea what to say. But she wouldn't have got the chance because Oliver closed the gap. He cupped her face with his hands and pressed his lips against hers. She moved one hand to his bicep and one to his back as he deepened the kiss. Once they finally broke apart for air and Oliver closed his eyes again and then within a second he was gone, he left her standing there and she didn't know what to do. She was still in her nightclub outfit and just wanted to go home and sleep, but she needed to talk to Oliver so she headed for his apartment and left Sara a quick message and let her know briefly what happened.

She left out of the side door in the foundry but before she made it to the door a dark figure blocked her way. She took a few steps back to give her some room so that she could attack when she recognised the shadow.

'Hello Felicity'

She would never forget the voice of Slade Wilson.
