I finished my morning routine just as I always do. Taking a shower, putting on a nice outfit, grabbing those panda flats that I love that complete my day just by looking at them.

I space out thinking about the night I had before. I still debate with myself at every second of the day for telling Oliver about the secret his mother kept from him about Thea. But, it was weighing on me to the point where I was almost going to blow up, and that rarely ever happens to me.

I space out thinking about the mess that is Oliver's family, and that gets me thinking about my own non-existent family. My mother wanted so much from me, and I tried my best to succeed at the things that I wanted to do.

She wanted me to be number one in everything and I just wanted to be myself. I couldn't possible be the best at everything but when I found my calling in being a computer technician and knowing all the facets of technology I became more self assured in the things that I can achieve. It felt great to find something that I could teach other people how to do, and to get paid for it.

I never knew my father as he left my mother and I at a very early age. I guess you can say I never really did cope with the fact that I never had a father figure in my life. But, as the woman that I have become I know now that I am doing just fine on my own without the presence of either parent.

I have times where it is hard to see other people with their families, but I tell myself that it's been so long now without them that I just brush it away. I can either mope about it and get no where, or I can be the person I always set out to be. Which is helping other people when they need me, and that's why I told Oliver. Because he trusts in me, and I trust him.

Moira Queen may want the best for her children but her lies have caught up with her, and I just can't fathom Oliver feeling as if his life in a lie. Telling him took a lot out of me, and I went through every scenario after my confrontation with her at the manor.

"Oliver will hate me, but he will hate you to." She told me with a sneer and It just felt like a thousand needles piercing my skin. I just couldn't keep secrets from my friend, my partner. I can't sit there and work with him in the lair all the while keeping something from him. He will know the signs to look for when I'm in a deep mindset. I can't risk him finding out the truth and me knowing about it, and not telling him. It would destroy our foundation, our work ethic. He wouldn't look at me the same way again.

So I decide to hurry my butt out of my apartment. Turning off everything in sight, and locking up my place. I begin my morning by going to the Big Belly Burger and getting coffees for myself and Oliver.

I just have this feeling where I know exactly where he is and that's at the foundry. I make my way through Verdant and place the drinks on the counter. I make my way downstairs, and grab the switch to turn everything on. As I'm walking towards my computers I see Sara bolt half naked to the side door, and then I see Oliver.

"Oh my God, oh crap I'll just go now." I turned myself around and ran up the stairs blocking all the noise Oliver was making. I just couldn't look at him for another second. I felt as if I violated them, I felt violated. The foundry? Why exactly there?

I kept telling myself as I ran out of Verdant towards my beat up car. Everything is such a colossal mess. I don't why I'm feeling this way as I drive myself to the edge of town. I turn off my phone and take the battery out so that nobody can track me.

I know it's a stupid idea something that will anger Digg and Oliver, but I just can't let them find me right now. Everything was bubbling up to the surface and if I don't stop the ways that they could find me I'd have to face him.

The deceit, pain, feeling abandoned once again formed a sick feeling in my body, in my heart.

"Well, well. Look at what we have here." A gruff voice with such a distinct accent came from behind her. She didn't notice someone was following her when she was driving. She once again didn't notice when someone was behind her until he made himself known.

"Who are you?" I let out in a strangled breath that I couldn't believe formed the words from being so terrified. I'm alone, in the middle of no where and this man was in my way of getting away.

Somehow I knew it wasn't possible for me to escape. My brain was such a mess I didn't even try to escape as I knew it was not meant for me to flee from him.

"Hello Felicity Smoak. My name doesn't need to be said right now. You can come with me in a gentle manner or I will not make this pretty for you. It's your choice to make."
