Summary: He knows his mornings are hectic, but they're his favorite part of the day anyways.

Every morning, no matter what, Ollie Queen wakes up at exactly 6:23. It's just something he's always done. Next, he would go to their personal gym, and he would run on the treadmill, watching the news until 7:00. After his work out, he goes and showers, by the time he's done with that and is dressed, it's about 7:20. This is when he goes and makes coffee and breakfast.

By 7:30, the smell of food has roused the rest of the family. Artemis is the one who's usually out of bed first. She comes bounding into the kitchen with her matching pajama set and her teddy bear, she sits at the counter, in one of the "spiny chairs" as she calls them, and swings her feet as she waits to be served.

Next to walk in is Dinah, she comes in a little after Artemis because Artemis usually wakes her up on her way to the kitchen. Dinah doesn't say anything until she has at least three sips of her coffee, and the family knows by now not to disturb her until she gives Ollie a kiss on the cheek and sits down next to Artemis. It's just a known rule.

Last to come in is Roy, it doesn't really surprise Ollie that he's the last up. Roy's a teenager now and has he's studies and extracurricular activities, and Ollie also noticed that he stays up later. Artemis even told him that she heard Roy on the phone really late one night talking to a girl.

He can't believe it but he's boy is really growing up.

Anyways, Roy walks in last, he usually walks over to the fridge and grabs the orange juice, pours himself a glass, and plops down next to his sister. Out of the four of them, he's the worst person when it comes to mornings. He likes to the eat his eggs and bacon in silence.

Which is quite the opposite of his sister. Artemis loves to tell the family about what her plans are for the day. She tells them when she has a test, or if a classmate of hers has a birthday, or if she might just punch Wally West in the face if he tries to kiss her again.

Ollie knows that one day, Artemis isn't going to be denying him those kisses, and that's exactly what he's afraid off.

Roy is usually the first one done with breakfast too. Since his bus comes earlier than Artemis', he has no time to waste, so he goes and showers quickly so he can make it to the bus that comes a little after 8:00.

Dinah stays for a little longer before she has to go and get ready for work, she almost always has early meetings, but on the rare occasions she doesn't, she likes to stay and bring Artemis to her bus, something Ollie usually does.

After Dinah goes to take her shower, Artemis and Ollie talk more about their plans for the day. Usually since Roy is at sports practice and Dinah works late, they make dinner together, so every morning they plan what they're going to make and what they're going to have to get from the store after Ollie picks Artemis up from school.

(Her bus ride home is a mess.)

Once they have that settled, they say goodbye to Roy as he runs out to catch his bus, he's always running late in the morning. And that's always their cue to start getting Artemis ready. It's Ollie's job to make sure she gets out the door, she likes to take her time in the morning.

Ollie picks out her clothes while Artemis plays with her teddy a little more. Today he picks out shorts and a pine green t-shirt for her to wear. It takes a little coaxing, like always, for her to stop playing and change. Once she's changed, Dinah runs in and brushes Artemis' long hair and ties it up her favorite way because Ollie for the life of him just can't seem to brush hair or tie and ponytail. After this, Dinah has to leave, she give them both a kiss, Ollie on the lips and Artemis on the forehead, she tells them she loves them and she's out the door.

Ollie packs Artemis' lunch while she packs her backpack, she always has the same: peanut butter and jelly, no curst, a small baggy of chips, three cookies, and a rotation of grapes, cantaloupe, pineapple, and strawberries. By the time they're both done, it's 8:30 and if they don't head out then, they might not make it to the stop if the bus is early.

They walk down to the bus, she still holds his hand most of the way down, she wouldn't be his little girl if she didn't. At the stop, there are two other families from the neighborhood, their children are younger but they're nice people. She holds his hand until the bus comes at 8:43, she lets go and he kisses her head, they share "I love you's" and she gets on the bus. When the bus pulls away, she's waving to him from her seat.

When he gets back home, it's a little after 8:50, he has until 9:00 before he has to start getting ready. Today in particular, he goes through one of the photo albums. It makes him realize how fast his babies are growing up, how soon they won't need him as much. But he doesn't have to worry about it now because they still have their mornings together.

He knows his mornings are hectic, but they're his favorite part of the day anyways.

This was actually quite fun to write!
