Felicity had been ignoring calls all day. It seemed every single person in the freakin' universe wanted to know if she and Oliver were dating, she even avoided the break room. She had to wait an extra hour to eat! It was seriously annoying. Felicity wished there was some new gossip. Something to make her old news.
Finally the work day ended. Felicity decided since Oliver hadn't actually asked her to work tonight, she was off the clock. She knew she was avoiding him, but she was ok with being a little bit cowardly. Felicity exited the building as fast as possible, but if felt like everyone was whispering about her. She was probably being paranoid. People had their own lives to worry about. But she couldn't shake the feeling.
She drove to her apartment, looking forward to a quiet night. Maybe sleeping at a normal hour.
She walked up the flight of stairs, she really needed to move into a nicer building. One with an elevator.
Once she got to her floor, she saw her door open. Her door was open! Could Diggle or Oliver just let themselves in? It was very them. Felicity pulled out her phone.
Oliver picked up immediately when he saw it was Felicity.
"Hello, Felicity" Oliver said calmly.
"Oliver please tell me you or Diggle broke it to my place. Because the door is open, and I didn't open it" Felicity said quickly.
Oliver was immediately scared. "Get out of the building. I will be there as soon as possible."
Oliver ran down to the lobby, jumping on his motorcycle and breaking every traffic law imaginable. He made it to Felicity's apartment in minutes.
When Oliver saw Felicity his heartbeat returned to normal.
"Hey Oliver" Felicity said softly, she was kind of embarrassed about the phone call.
"Wait here." Oliver said as he made his way up the stairs. Felicity followed, it was her home. She was not waiting.
Oliver went into the building and saw a man crouched in the kitchen. O' he was dead.
Oliver walked up behind him and cleared his throat menacingly.
"Felicity" The forty year old super said. That voice sounded weird, the man thought.
Oliver was confused, why wasn't he scared? He seemed to be expecting Felicity. This made Oliver hesitate for a second.
The man stood up, from beneath the sink.
"Oh my god you're Oliver Queen!"
"I think the more important question is who are you?" Oliver asked, now very confused.
Felicity walked in. "Bill?"
Oliver's eyes widened, why was she here? He told her to wait downstairs.
"There was a leak, I fixed it." Bill said. He had been double checking his work. He had not expected to see one of the most famous people in the city to be in his apartment complex.
Felicity was so embarrassed. It was just her building manager!
"O' Oliver this is Bill the building manager."
Oliver had a desire to laugh. It was actually a misunderstanding. "Well nice to meet you." Oliver said softly.
"You too." Bill said, after a handshake. "Call me if it stops working."
Bill walked out of the apartment.
Felicity was beyond embarrassed. "O' my god. I am so sorry, Oliver I didn't realize that it was Bill. I didn't mean to call you away from whatever you were doing."
"Felicity!" Oliver interrupted. "It's fine. I am glad you called."
Felicity took a calming breath. What now? Should she offer him a drink? That's what people did as a thank you, right?
"Want a beer?" Felicity questioned.
Oliver smiled slightly. "Sure, why not?"
"OK, the couch is over there." Felicity motioned. She grabbed two beers from the fridge.
Felicity opened hers taking a sip, to calm her nerves.
Then she opened Oliver's and walked over sitting next to him, handing her a beer.
Oliver took a quick sip, he was nervous, which was a new feeling. He tried to remember that Oliver Queen was good with women.
"I don't know about you, but I am hungry." Oliver stated. A meal was always the next step.
Felicity realized she was starving. "I am starving, but if you expect me to cook, I warn you there are less painful ways to die."
Oliver chuckled. "Well I can't cook either; all I can do is find berries in the wilderness."
Felicity was surprised Oliver casually brought up the island, he was usually so careful about not mentioning his past.
"I will order in." Felicity decided. "What do you want? Chinese, Indian, Mexican..."
"How about pizza?' Oliver suggested.
"Sounds perfect. What toppings?"
Before Felicity could list every topping known to man Oliver answered. "Is pepperoni good for you?"
"I love pepperoni." Felicity got up and ordered a large pepperoni pizza.
"Hey there was a major traffic accident, on 5th street, there is a ton of traffic so it might be a while before the pizza get's here." Felicity told Oliver.
"No problem. I don't mind waiting." Oliver said casually.
Felicity sat back down. She thought it was better to get the elephant in the room out of the way. Then maybe she and Oliver could return to a somewhat normal place. "You know I am sorry about all the rumours about us."
Oliver looked at Felicity. "You have nothing to be sorry about. I am the one who should apologize, I never wanted your privacy to be invaded. Or over complicate your life."
Felicity laughed. "My life was complicated the moment you stepped foot in my office, but I don't mind. Honestly I thought I was going to mess with your image."
Oliver was shocked the Felicity could think something like that. "You could never hurt my so called image. You could do far better."
"What do you mean?" Felicity was confused. "You are like a hundred time out of my league."
"You are perfect. In case you haven't heard I am self absorbed, dangerous and bring bad luck." Oliver said he was being completely honest.
The two of them replayed the conversation wondering what it meant. It felt too stupidly high school. Felicity hated feeling confused, she didn't know how to respond to Oliver.
Oliver thought screw it, he was an adult, and attraction was normal, healthy even. Why the hell shouldn't he act on it?
Very consciously, Oliver moved towards Felicity. Felicity realized Oliver was about to make the first move.
After a brief internal freak out, she smiled. Oliver smiled softly, and gently kissed Felicity.
For once Felicity's mind went blank. She didn't think she only did what felt right.
Slow wasn't what Felicity had in mind. She had had a huge ball of lust stored up. She needed a release.
Felicity deepened the kiss, pulling Oliver closer. Oliver got the message, slow was not what the lady wanted.
Instantly he had her pinned underneath him, on the coach. Her moans of pleasure were driving him insane. He wanted to taste every inch of that body.
Felicity loved every moment of Oliver's lips, exploring her, moving lower and lower, Oliver made to her collarbone, as he started to unbutton her blouse.
Felicity realized she still had her glasses on, it was a miracle they hadn't fallen off. She couldn't believe this could screw up the mood, she tried to focus long enough to move them, but Oliver was so distracting, he had her shirt unbuttoned.
Oliver felt Felicity move her arm in an awkward direction, it distracted him long enough to look up, he noticed that she was trying to get to her glasses, it made him want to laugh.
"Here" Oliver grabbed her glasses and put them on the table. "Better."
Felicity felt the blush starting, she just nodded.
"Good, now where were we." Oliver said.
Felicity smiled and entwined her arms behind Oliver's neck, pulling him closer.
It was her turn to drive him crazy, the kiss was heart stopping, but she wanted more, to feel more. She pulled of the shirt, to feel the body she so greatly admired. It felt better than she imagined.
The two moved in sync.
Heat and tension was building, each trying to drive the other crazy. Felicity was barely able to breathe, Oliver had the most amazing hands, and currently they were making their way down to her pants.
She was dripping with anticipation.
As quickly as possible Felicity unbuckled Oliver's belt, and unzipped his pants.
"Hurry" She moaned. She could barely stand the wait.
The two moved as one, over the brink.
Felicity was exhausted, but beyond satisfied.
Oliver was thunderstruck.
The two had repositioned themselves on the couch, Felicity rested her head on Oliver's bare chest, the two completly naked. Though Oliver hand considerately pulled down the throw blanket Felicity kept on the couch down.
He didn't want Felicity to be cold, but he never wanted her to get dressed again either.
Felicity wondered what she should say, she could still feel Oliver's chest hammering, it matched her heart beat.
"That was..." Felicity couldn't think of an appropriate word.
"Ya" Oliver agreed.
Felicity sat up, and grabbed her beer, she took a sip, but her throat was still dry.
Oliver thought a sip of beer was a good idea, he was reaching for Felicity's beer, she pulled it away.
"Get your own." She declared.
Oliver laughed. "So we can sleep together, but sharing a beer is off limit."
Felicity hadn't meant it like that, she just didn't want to share. "You have your own. I want my beer."
Oliver put his hands up in surrender and leaned over to grab his beer.
Felicity didn't know what to do now. The beer was not helping her thought process. She wondered what was going through Oliver's mind. What did he think? What did he want? What did he think she wanted? Why was everything so complicated after sex? He was kind of her boss? And he was Oliver freaking Queen.
Oliver was watching Felicity closely, he could see her getting more and more worked up. What was wrong? Was she having second thoughts? Was she unhappy?
"Felicity, are you alright?" Concern was clear in his voice.
"Of course that was awesome, and everything's good, why wouldn't I be alright?" Felicity answered.
Oliver could hear the nerves. "Are you having second thoughts or regrets?" Oliver tried to not let the hurt in.
"Of course not" Felicity exclaimed. How could he think that? "Nothing, just over thinking, you know, I tend to do that."
"What is making you looked stress?" Oliver asked, what he wanted to know was how did he fix it.
"Nothing, really" Felicity said. "things just always get complicated after this point. I am no good with the after the sex point."
"Neither am I" Oliver said. He sucked at relationships.
Felicity laughed, Oliver usually made her a bundle of nerves, but now he made her calm down, even relax. Something she never thought she would do in his presence.
"You're right, we should just enjoy the moment." Felicity said leaning closer for a casual kiss.
Oliver wanted more.
Things were heating up nicely, when the doorbell rang.
"Pizza's here" Felicity said softly. She untangled herself from Oliver.
The doorbell rang again.
"Coming!" Felicity shouted.
She got up and looked for something to put on, answering in the nude was a big tip, especially since the pizza took an hour to get there.
She grabbed Oliver's shirt and ran to the door.
"Almost there" Felicity said, as she rushed to get the buttons down.
She opened the door, and a teenage boy was standing there.
"Um...your...pizza" He stuttered. Man this girl was hot, he thought. Lucky bastard, whoever he was that was with her. What he wouldn't give to be in her place.
"How much?"Felicity asked as she tried to grab the pizza and stay as hidden as possible behind the door.
"Um...21.60" He said, taking a calming breath, trying not to sound like an idiot.
Oliver had pulled up his pants, luckily he knew where his wallet was, unlike Felicity who seemed to be scrambling to find her purse.
He went over to the door, smirked at the kid who was obviously checking out his girl.
Oliver pulled out thirty dollars. "Keep the change."
"You're Oliver Queen." The kid said in a shocked tone.
"Yes I am, good night." Oliver said as he closed the door on the kid.
"Pizza?" Felicity said.
"Sounds perfect." Oliver said.
Felicity was walking into work the next morning, unable to stop smiling. She felt so happy.
After her first freak out, things calmed down in her head. It wasn't like they had to define anything. She could to do in the moment.
She had fun with Oliver, they laughed over pizza, and bad reality TV. Something Oliver had missed out on during his time away.
Felicity was happily in her own world, not worried about the rumors anymore.
Felicity walked past the coffee machine, today she was awake and energized.
Once her system was booted up, Felicity began working. She wanted work done quickly today. Oliver wanted to do something tonight. She wondered what, hopefully it didn't involve the list in any way. She wanted a repeat of last night. Without playing some sort of damsel in distress. Felicity still felt embarrassed about the call. But then again she was usually embarrassed about everything.
Felicity looked up to see Diggle walking in.
"Hey what's up?" Felicity said cheerfully.
"Just checking in." Diggle said calmly. "I wanted to know if anything new had happened."
"New..."Felicity trailed off. She knew what Diggle was getting at.
"Ya, you know life or love?" Diggle said.
"Fine, ya." Felicity conceded. Diggle was going to find out sooner or later.
"Wait the rumours are true?" Diggle said. He had been planning to tease Felicity about Oliver, unaware that there was anything actually there. Diggle wasn't oblivious he knew that the two had something, he just never thought one would be able to make a move.
"I guess, not really. It's not like we are in a relationship or something. We are just...I mean we are...I guess we are kinda dating, you know what, we aren't putting a label on it." Felicity summed up.
Diggle didn't follow that, but from he could piece together, something was happening between the two of them. Diggle hoped to god that Oliver didn't screw this up.
"Do you want to talk?" Diggle asked, he wasn't very good with relationships, but he was willing to listen to Felicity.
"Nope" Felicity said, because then she would start worrying or over thinking about the situation.
"Ok but I am always here." Diggle said. "I leave you to your work."
Felicity smiled, Diggle could be awesome.
"Later," Felicity said. She started to work again. She had been too distracted about her thoughts to even check for anymore stories.
