„Felicity, wait!" Oliver shook off the brief shock of seeing her leave and went after her.
"Oliver, please, just let it go," the blonde IT girl replied, trying hard not to cry. But the billionaire didn't give up so easily. He took her arm and turned her around to him. Her eyes were full of pain, just like his.
"Felicity, I love you and Sara will never take your place in my heart. I know that I have hurt you so badly and I also know that it will take time for me to earn your trust again, but I am serious – I want this thing between us to work, not for a few weeks or months, but forever."
Felicity took a step back, but Oliver closed the distance between them again. "I'm not letting you go, Felicity." His soft voice sent a shiver down her spine. Unable to say anything, she just nodded. His lips met hers, soft, gentle and loving, just like every one of his words in the last five minutes.
Oliver broke the kiss and looked at Felicity. He needed her to survive, she gave him strength and security. "Please don't go."
"I'll stay – under one condition," Felicity answered. One hand resting on the back of his neck, she pulled him close against her. "Show me, how much you love me."
Oliver looked into her face and gave her one of those incredibly sweet, erotic smiles she loved so much. Gently pushing her against the wall, he looked deep into Felicity's eyes for a moment and buried his hands in her shiny golden hair before he gently kissed her lips. A very pleasant shiver ran through Felicity's body.
Oliver had cancelled all meetings at QC for the next day. After the smoke had cleared, Diggle had informed him about the damage. It was worse than they had thought and both men were glad that Felicity hadn't been more seriously injured.
They met in the basement at Verdant early next morning. Diggle had brought coffee for everyone. Felicity switched on her computers, but found it very difficult to type with just one hand. She tried using both, but gave up quickly, when the pain became too bad.
Oliver put his hand on her shoulder. "Felicity, you're not supposed to use your injured hand."
Felicity took a deep breath. "I know, but how else are we supposed to find Tockman, neither of you will be able to track him."
"I can track him, if you give me instructions," a female voice sounded from the door. Diggle, Oliver and Felicity looked up. Sara smiled at them as she came down the stairs. Her eyes turned to Felicity. "Oliver told me what happened. I'm sorry."
"Good to see you, Sara," Felicity said – and meant it. Although Sara and Oliver had been together, Sara had never wished her ill, on the contrary, she had always been honest and friendly.
"Good to see you, too, although I'd have preferred a wedding to a psychodad."
"Sara…." Oliver threw her a dark look.
"I'm sorry, Felicity."
"It's okay, Sara. I couldn't have said it better myself."
Sara took a seat beside Felicity at the computers. "Have you found anything yet?"
"No, not really."
"Okay, then tell me where to search and what to look for," Sara offered.
Felicity pushed the keyboard over to Sara and began to give her instructions.
Diggle and Oliver stood behind the two women and grinned at each other. They were glad that both women had their place on the team and that neither of them felt left out.
"This could be something," Sara said after a few hours work.
"Yes, absolutely, this is where the signal came from," Felicity confirmed.
"Hey guys, we found something!" Sara called out to Oliver and Diggle, who had decided to train, while the two IT-girls were busy with their cyber search for Tockman.
The men interrupted their sparring match and hurried over.
"What did you find?" Oliver asked.
"Yesterday Tockman's signal came from an old warehouse at the docks," Felicity answered. " He tried to cover his tracks on the net, but he left a few small traces."
"Okay, I'll go change and head there," the billionaire said.
"I'll cover you," Diggle added.
Sara noticed the look Oliver gave his friend. "Don't worry, I'll stay here with Felicity. With this guy, you're going to need the backup."
Oliver nodded and disappeared into the small bathroom.
Twenty minutes late the two men were ready to go. Oliver grabbend his bow and Diggle pocketed a spare magazine for his gun.
Felicity looked at Oliver and their eyes met. He came over to her, ran a hand through her hair and gave her a quick kiss. "I will catch him."
"Please be careful," Felicity pleaded.
"I will, promise. After all, I want to go on from where we left off this morning," he whispered in her ear. Felicity blushed and grinned at him. Last night Oliver had almost driven her out of her mind and shown her more than once just how much he loved her.
Night had fallen over Starling City as the two men were on their way to the docks. Sara and Felicity stayed behind to supply the Arrow and his friend with all necessary information.
"Felicity," Sara said, after a brief silence. "What happened between me and Oliver…."
"Sara," Felicity interrupted," it's okay."
"No, it's not." Sara looked at her and took her hand. "Felicity, you accepted me so readily. You didn't judge me and you kept my secret. I had already noticed that there was something between you and Oliver, but I had no time to talk with you about it. When I came back, something had changed between you. You seemed to be more distant, or at least Oliver was. I wanted to say something then, but what with one thing and another…. I was disappointed by my family and Oliver felt the same."
Felicity closed her eyes. Every single word hurt. Sara saw her friend's reaction and quickly continued. "I know that I hurt you badly, Felicity, but that was never my intention. I love Oliver, but only as a friend. We've been through a lot together, that's not something you can just forget, and he saved my life more than once. But my heart belongs to Nyssa and Oliver's belongs to you. Felicity, the way he looks at you, the smile he gives you… he never looked at me or my sister like that. Hold onto him and don't let him go again, because after everything he went through on the island, he needs someone like you. You make him laugh, you see the good in him and you stand up to him when he needs it. And I, Felicity, need a happy girlfriend like you."
Felicity smiled. "Come here," she said, pulling Sara into a hug. "I already forgave you a long time ago."
