AN: So I hope you enjoyed the last chapter. But I have had a few comments about Maya being the main character. Well I guess the point of the story was Maya getting done with Scott and Felicity showing how strong she is. Please tell me if you don't like anything, but be as nice as you can about it. For all of you wondering whether Maya will be part of team Arrow, your questions will be answered this chapter.
"Me, and Diggle. Maybe even Roy," Oliver said. The lights came on and Maya's jaw dropped (almost to the ground).
"You're the Arrow," she whispered, eyes wide and mouth hanging open.
Oliver just nodded, and watched while Maya walked around the foundry.
"You are the Arrow. The guy who has been saving this city. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say…"Maya said, trailing off…looking at Oliver.
"Well, let's start with questions you have?" Oliver said, pointing to the couch. Maya followed him and they both sat next to each other.
"Okay. How many people know? Why are you doing this? And why are you showing me?" Maya said, in one go. Thankfully Oliver was used to it, thanks to Felicity.
"You, Felicity, Diggle, Tommy, and Roy. That's who knows. The most important people obviously being Felicity, Diggle and Tommy, no offence or anything," he paused, and Maya shook her head, so he continued, "well it all started out as a list that my father had made. I took out all those people, then Felicity and Diggle made me realize that the city needs a hero, so I become the Arrow or Green Arrow, as people call me. Lastly, I decided to show you, because I think we could use you on the team. Not as a IT girl, but as an inside source. You can tell us what's going on at the DA's office, and what's going around the city."
"I could also go undercover," Maya offered, "I mean, I can kick ass and I'm really good at keeping secrets, and not panicking in sticky situations."
"We'll start with inside source, and then progress onto other things," Oliver said. Maya nodded, and it was silent for a while. The silence was interrupted by a pair of heels coming down the stairs, and anyone could tell who they belonged to. Felicity turned and saw Maya and Oliver sitting on the couch.
"Oliver…why are and my sister on a couch together?" Felicity asked, eyes widening when she realized what she said. "I meant, like sitting next to each other. I couldn't even imagine you guys doing anything else, not that you guys wouldn't look good with each other, but it's kind of weird, because she's my little sister, and you're my boss/friend/hero, and I….should really stop now."
"That's my Fliss," Maya said, smiling. "Oliver told me everything. Well not everything, but what I need to know. Which actually should be everything, but I guess in this situation the less is better. Anyway, I'm part of the team now."
"You've got to love these girls," Diggle said, coming down the stairs. "Welcome to the team Maya."
"Maya's on the team! Woo, finally someone cool," Roy said, following Diggle. The other three members raised an eyebrow.
"Not that you guys aren't cool, but I mean she's just…cooler," Roy said, nervously.
"Thanks Roy, you're sweet," Maya said, winking at him.
"I hope you're talking about me," Tommy said, slowly descending the stairs.
"Was there a memo for a team meeting that I didn't get?" Oliver said, as all the members of Team Arrow gathered in the Foundry.
"We all have the Arrow sense, when we have to be here. Right Smoaky?" Tommy said, throwing an arm around Felicity's shoulder, causing Felicity to laugh, Maya to look away, and Oliver to glare.
"Well since everyone is here, we might as well do proper introductions," Oliver said. "Diggle is our Trainer/Medic. Felicity is the IT genius. Roy is my sidekick. Tommy is the cover story maker. And now Maya is our inside source."
"And Mr. Queen over here, is the infamous Green Arrow," Tommy said, punching Oliver in the arm playfully.
"Well thank god I'm here, otherwise Fliss would be overwhelmed with testosterone here," Maya said, putting an arm around her sister.
"Hey! We're not that bad," Tommy said. Wedging himself between the two girls, swinging his arms around both of them.
"Yeah…they aren't. You on the other hand," Maya said, shrugging his arm off. Tommy grabbed her by the waist.
"Excuse you, I am insulted. I gave you a job!" he said.
"Actually Thea gave me a job," she argued, as she tried to wriggle out of his grip.
"I can still fire you," he said, tightening his grip.
"You can…but you won't. I'm too cute," she said, twisting her head to look at him. Giving him these big eyes, and pouty lips.
"Don't do that. You can't do that!" he whined, eventually letting her go.
"AHA! I knew that would work," Maya said, breaking free.
"No fair, you cheated," Tommy whined, he turned to face away and saw the rest of team watching them with raised eyebrows. Well Diggle and Oliver were giving him a 'what-are-you-doing' look, Felicity was giving him a 'you-hurt-her-i-kill-you' look, and Roy was smirking.
"Anyway, I really need some rest," Maya said, catching onto all the looks.
"Of course. It's been a long day. You'll be staying at the Queen Mansion," Oliver said, turning to face her.
"I will…?" she asked, surprise.
"Oh yes, I forgot to tell you. Oliver, being the protective guy he is, is forcing us to move into the Queen Mansion. They have like a million guests bedrooms. I already moved some stuff there. You can go straight there, and rest. You'll need it. Don't stay up too late, not that you'll listen to me. But anyway, get some rest, you have a job to get to tomorrow morning," Felicity babbled on. Oliver put an arm on her shoulder.
"I think she gets it," Oliver said, while Felicity blushed. "Roy can you drop her home."
"I'll drop her," Tommy blurted out, to quick. Everyone looked at him. "I mean, let Roy train. I'll do it."
"I'll just go get my stuff. I'll meet whomever is taking me home, outside," Maya said, running up the stairs.
As she disappeared the rest of the group turned to face Tommy.
"What?" he asked.
"I told you had it bad," Roy said, going to get ready for training.
"Tommy…her ex-boyfriend is a psycho, I'm not sure she's ready," Oliver started.
"She isn't, at all. But if you're serious about her, I'm giving you just one warning. Don't hurt her, otherwise if Oliver doesn't, I'll put an arrow in you," Felicity warned her.
"Forget them. I'll put 4, and I'm sure Thea and Laurel wouldn't mind giving you hell as well," Roy said.
"I haven't even admitted my feelings yet, and you guys are already threatening me. Great friends you guys are," Tommy said, shaking his head. He headed upstairs. He got his car and waited outside for Maya. Maya saw him and got into the car. They were sitting in a comfortable silence, before Maya decided to break it.
"They gave you the talk didn't they?" Maya asked. She looked at him. Tommy was so surprised by the question, he accidently hit the break. Thankfully they had just reached outside the gate of the Queen Mansion. He started the car again, but didn't answer. He parked the car outside the door, and went to open the door for her.
"How did you know?" he asked, timidly.
"I heard Roy on the way up. Is it true…?" she asked, looking down. Tommy went a slight shade of red.
"Umm…well…you see…" Tommy stumbled, and Maya giggled. He smiled when she laughed.
"It's okay. I'm just not ready right now…but it's sweet," Maya said, kissing his cheek.
"All I get is a kiss on the cheek and it's sweet…I feel deprived," Tommy yelled as she walked away. She laughed, and turned around.
"Give me time…and maybe you'll get much more," she said winking at him. Tommy's face was graced with a wide smile, and he watched as she entered the house, looking back at him once more, before closing the door.
Okay so I know there hasn't been much Olicity, but I promise you next chapter will have way more Olicity. The next chapter will be Laurel & Maya at the Office, Olicity talking about Tommy & Maya, Roy/Thea/Maya bonding at Verdant.
