Before we get to today's drabble, I just want to quickly address yesterday's. I have no plans to write another chapter of the Presidential fic. It's a potentially great story, but it involves more research and dedication than I'm willing to put into it right now. As always, someone could request it on Tumblr the next time I'm taking prompts, but until that happens, that's it. Anyway, let's get to the new stuff.
Based on the following prompt from an anon on Tumblr: "Prompt: Oliver and Felicity taking care of baby Sara at QC and all the employees being like omg is so in love with Felicity Smoak and she doesn't even realize it. POV of one of employees."
I kind of cheated on this one. I don't think Oliver will get QC back until he and Felicity are dating and vice versa, so I couldn't really think of a scenario for the future. Instead, I went back to the premiere when Oliver came to the hospital to meet baby Sara.
John hugs Oliver a moment and then steps back. He turns to look at him a moment later, to say something else, and then stops when he sees the look on his face.
He's staring at Felicity like he's never wanted anything more, like he's utterly heartbroken that he can't have it. But he could. He and Felicity could be happy together if he would just let them try. But John knows that won't happen now.
He's has watched Oliver make a lot of stupid decisions in the last two years, but he's about to make the worst of all by pushing Felicity away. He wishes for both their sakes that he could say something that would make Oliver change his mind, but he knows there's nothing he can do. This is just something Oliver will have to learn for himself. He hopes it doesn't ruin him.
