When Felicity woke up, the sun was already out. But something got her guard. Actually, it's someone. She then remembers the night before, and now she couldn't move. She sees that Oliver's arm is holding her by her waist. She freak's out immediately, but then realizes that she actually likes it, him holding her like this, in bed. She wants to see him, knowing how dangerous this could be, but she does it anyway. She slowly turns trying not to wake him. And there she is, being hold by a shirtless Oliver, and he looks so peaceful.
Then Oliver pulls her even closer to him and mumbles in sleep "…Licity" She couldn't believe it. Was Oliver Queen dreaming about her? And then, all the sudden she finds herself touching his face. And slowly he opens his eyes.
"Hi" A complete sleepy Oliver.
"Hi" She says back. They stare into each other eyes for like it seem an eternity. Reality crushing Felicity, she says, "We should get going they're probably making breakfast" "Okay" Seems to be the only word out of Oliver's mouth. But neither of them moves. They continue staring at each other.
After a few minutes, smiling, "We should really get going" And now, laughing, "Okay", Oliver makes his effort to get out of bed.
When they're ready to go to breakfast, they step outside, hand in hand.
The whole morning and afternoon passed quickly and peacefully. Oliver and Felicity enjoyed each others company. They spend their whole day in each others arms. Oliver, actually, spent the whole day learning more about Felicity, something that he couldn't get enough. But most importantly he couldn't get enough of Felicity, her smile that could light up the whole world, a laugh that is music for his ears, and the even the small touch from her makes his whole body shiver.
Now, it's boys at one side, and girls in the opposite, chit-chatting. Oliver talks to Felicity's brothers in law and father. He actually wasn't paying attention to the conversation; he couldn't stop watching Felicity that was now laughing about something Abby said. She seem so happy, she is really beautiful and amazing. And then their gaze meet, she has this huge smile on her, and he can't stop from smiling at her.
"Oliver! Are you listening?" Earth to Oliver.
"Yes, sorry"
"No, you are not. You're completely in love; it's all over your face man!" But Oliver didn't answer that. It was true, he is falling for Felicity.
"So, why don't you tell her?" Oliver turn to see Andrew, Felicity's father was asking the question.
"I honestly don't know, I mean, look at my reputation, and besides she doesn't feel the same way I do" Oliver had to face the truth.
"Honestly, I don't know. But I'm going to tell you something. She never brought a boy down here, and when I met some old boyfriends she never looked like know, with you. You are definitely someone special to my daughter" Oliver got a little more hopeful with that comment.
"But still, I don't want to hurt her. She deserves that"
"Maybe you hurt her, maybe not, but you have to try to find out. Or you prefer to live with questions?" Oliver realizes that Andrew was indeed correct. But he didn't know when to do the right move, if it was ever possible at all.
"Come Felicity we can't talk here, with the boys over there. We have to have a correct private girl talk" While saying this; Abby was pulling up Felicity from her chair. She actually didn't want to, because she like the feeling of Oliver watching her constantly, she felt protected. And the way he watches her, oh my god! It's melting her inside. But she knows she has no option. When Abby wants something, she gets it.
They entered a little room; they called it the room of secrets, which was something between Kate, Abby and Felicity, Lois was never the type of fangirl like them. They sit in the floor and Felicity was getting nervous because she knew what's coming. But before Abby or Kate said something, Lois started with all these annoying questions that only make her mad at her.
Oliver wasn't afraid that Felicity's sisters kidnap her, but he was begging to start to miss her, he needed to touch her again. So he went to look for her.
He was about to reach a small room with the door open, when all the suddenly, from there, came all this questions he did not like at all. Of the type of questions there where, he figure out it was Lois asking the questions. So he just stays still and listens.
"Felicity, are you sure he's the kind of guy for you? I mean, you know the reputation he has? Worse, you know what he did to his old girlfriend, he slept with his sister!"
And what Oliver heard then surprise him even more.
"How dare you talk about him like that? You don't know anything about him. He has a bad reputation, yes, but he change, he prove that to me. I know him, all of him. And nothing you can say will change that!" Felicity's face was red of all the anger she had at the moment. She couldn't believe someone would underestimate Oliver like that.
Oliver was speechless. No one ever defend him like that. And decided now it was a great time to interrupt.
"Felicity, sweetie! Are you here?" And when he entered the room he saw Felicity standing up and reaching for him.
"Want to go for a walk?" Oliver offered.
"Sure", was the only respond he got. So he grab her hand and walk her outside.
Once outside, he asks "Everything okay?" She look up at him, and the only she could read in his eyes was concern. "Yeah, thanks for caring", and squeezes his hand. They walk in the dark, under the stars. It was a really beautiful night.
He needed to say it, she need to know. Of course, she will get mad when she founds out that he overheard her conversation with her sisters, but still, he went with it. "Oh, and by the way, thank you for defending me" He look at her eyes and she smile. "Your welcome, besides you would have done the same thing, right? And yes, to answer your question, I'm mad at you because you overheard our conversation, but not that mad" The biggest smile appear in his face, and laugh. "Okay" He couldn't believe it, she answer his question without him asking it. That's one the biggest things that amaze him of Felicity, she could read him like an open book.
They continue walking, hand in hand. When suddenly he stops, because it couldn't be any better to tell her how he felt. He turns to meet her eyes. "Felicity…" "What?" she asks with her curious face. She seems to notice this was something serious. "You're completely beautiful and…"
"Dinner's ready!" Shit, he was so close.
"What?" she seems eager to hear the rest.
"Nothing. Come on, let's go eat", and grabbing her hand, they went to the kitchen.
Felicity couldn't believe it, did just Oliver Queen told her she is beautiful? And then don't continue saying what he wanted? He definitely was planning on killing her!
Dinner was quiet.
Oliver and Felicity arrive to the little house, desperately looking for some rest. When she was about to go to change into something more comfortable, Oliver call her. "Felicity", she turn, "I really meant it earlier, when I said you are beautiful", and with that he disappear behind the door to get change.
Felicity couldn't, there was no way that she believe what she just heard. Oh my fucking god!
While she was changing, Felicity tries, in vain, to calm herself. When she gets out of the bathroom he still isn't there, thank god, she thinks. She climbs inside the bed.
A few minutes later Oliver joins her, shirtless again, but this time he gets in and goes to grab her by her waist. And surprisingly she leans into his touch. They felt in a comfortable sleep with two big smiles in their faces.
