Hey guys, here's the next chapter! I hope you enjoy and feel free to read and review. I won't be able to post on Monday because it's my B-day (cue Cas and his confetti), but I will definitely be posting on Tuesday. Still don't know how many more chapters there will be but I am still having a blast with this story.

The three of them arrived back in Starling around 8:00 P.M. All of them were exhausted and ready to crash after a long day of flying. Oliver told them both to go home and get some sleep and that they both could take the day off tomorrow.
"Are we still on for tomorrow night?" Felicity asked standing at the bottom of the stairs in The Foundry.
"Yes, you still want me to come over around six o' clock right?" He asked.
"Sure thing, be ready to be updated in pop culture," she said excited.
Oliver chuckled and said, "Good, apparently I need it. Alright, go get some sleep and I'll see you tomorrow." He kissed her forehead and sent her on her way up the stairs. After she left Oliver walked over to the bed Felicity had gotten for him and sat down. He looked over near Felicity's desk and saw the fern she had bought. He smiled and yawned.
"So this is where you have been living huh?" Thea asked walking into the room. "And you and the blonde? She's cute."
"Thea what are you doing in here? How did you even get in here?" Oliver asked standing up.
"Roy gave me the code and I wanted to see all your stuff," she answered looking at his bow. "You know Malcolm, as much as a douche he is, did train me pretty well. I'm really good at fighting. "
"Thea, what are you getting at?" Oliver questioned.
"I want to help Oliver. I want to save people like you do. I want to join your "Team Arrow" or whatever you call it," she answered truthfully.
"Thea," Oliver started before getting a look from her.
"Look I can defend myself. I want to help you. Roy thinks it would be a good idea," she said standing her ground.
"I don't want you in danger Thea," Oliver argued not wanting his sister to follow in his footsteps. "It's dangerous out there."
"Oliver this whole city is dangerous, it's Starling City for crying out loud. If it's not Mirakuru soldiers it's a friggin earthquake machines in this city. I am tired of just sitting around and watching it happen when I can do something about it. I want to make a difference Ollie, so please give me this chance," she pleaded with her puppy dog eyes.
Oliver sighed and shook his head. "You aren't going to stop even if tell you to. I really don't like this idea, but I guess I can't stop you," he said.
She smiled and said, "Great! I already have a name picked out! I think Speedy sounds good. All I need is a costume," she said running up and kissing him on the cheek. "I gotta go tell Roy!" She wrapped him in a hug and ran towards the stairs. "I'll see you tomorrow and have fun on your date!"
Oliver stood there in shock for a minute after she left wondering what had just happened. He snapped out of it and sat back down on the bed, getting ready to go to sleep.
…
Six o' clock rolled around quickly for Oliver the next day and he was a little nervous. Their last date had been going so well before the explosion and he was nervous that he would somehow mess it up again. He dressed in something casual and picked up some red roses on the way to her house. He arrived at exactly six and knocked on her door.
She opened the door and her lips formed into a big smile. "Right on time, I like it," she said praising him. "Are those for me?" She asked noticing the roses in his hands.
"Yes, do you like them?" He asked smiling back at her. She was dressed in a Star Wars T-shirt and some leggings.
"They're beautiful, thank you so much. Come on in," she said inviting him inside.
"Well beautiful flowers for a beautiful woman," he said entering her house.
"Trying to be smooth huh? Well I like it. Food should be here in a few minutes and I have Netflix all set up for us," she said taking the roses he gave her and putting them in a vase of water. "What should we watch first?"
"Surprise me," he said smiling. How could one girl make him feel so giddy inside like a child?
"Hmmm this should be interesting. I think I know just what to start you off on," she said stepping closer to him.
"Oh really, and what is that?" He asked grinning.
"You told me to surprise you, so you will just have to wait and see," she taunted. A knock at the door interrupted their conversation and she looked up at him and said, "Food's here."
After paying the delivery guy, Felicity and Oliver headed to the living room with their take-out and sat on the couch. "Alright the first thing I have planned for you is, wait for it, Supernatural."
"Supernatural? What's that a movie or something?" Oliver asked giving Felicity a confused look.
"Oh my gosh you look like Cas. It's a Tv show about two brothers fighting monsters and demons. It has a lot of action and is hilarious, but also emotionally heart wrenching and totally angsty," she said to a still confused Oliver.
"Um okay, who is Cas is he one of the brothers?" Oliver asked trying to piece this show together in his head.
"Um no, see he is an angel who comes in play in season four and helps the two brothers out," she explained like it was common knowledge.
"Okay well let's watch it then," he said smiling. He was amazed at how much she was into this kinda of stuff. She looked so cute explaining her tv show.
After a few hours Oliver and Felicity had watched six episodes of season one. Felicity had snuggled up against him and had her head resting on his chest. It was almost eleven o' clock at night and he could tell Felicity was starting to get tired. Their take-out laid finished on the coffee table.
"This show is really interesting," Oliver said to Felicity.
"Good, this show is like irresistible. Just stay away from the Tumblr fangirls though, they are amazing but can be utterly terrifying at times," Felicity muttered.
"Tumblr? Fangirls?" Oliver asked confused.
"You have a lot to learn," she said sitting up and yawning.
"Well I'm sure I will learn fast. I have a good teacher," he said looking into her tired eyes.
"Someone wants their brownie points," she said leaning in and giving him a soft kiss. "I had a lot of fun tonight, and look things only went boom on the show."
He chuckled and returned a gentle kiss onto her lips. "I had a lot of fun too, and I'm glad things only went boom on the show," he said agreeing with her.
"Well the next time we get a night off would you like to do this again?" She asked.
"Absolutely, is that supposed to give me incentive to get all crime off the street?" He joked.
"Maybe," she replied giggling.
"Alright well I guess I better head out. I love you Felicity," he said giving her one last kiss before getting ready to go.
"I love you too Oliver," she replied as his lips retreated from hers. She saw him smile and then stand up.
"Goodninght Felicity," he said as he stood at her door.
"Night Oliver," she said as he opened the door and left her house.
