Positive things came off last chapter, except the revelation that is most shocking. Ray is in love with Felicity but Felicity is with Oliver how is this going to work?
This chapter, Felicity and Ray have work things to attend to and Dan spends the day with Oliver, should be calm right?
After my morning routine and after Ray arrive with Dan, Oliver shocks us all by saying the he would take Dan for the day while I work. Since Dan was already changed, i gave the keys to my car to Oliver and he and Dan left straight after breakfast. Ray however waited around until i was finished doing my morning things and so he gave me a lift into work with him. It wasn't unusual to see Ray and I arrive together nor was it unusual to see us leave together after the work day was over so everyone had become accustomed to seeing us together most of the time.
Today was different though, instead of both heading to our separate offices we both went straight into the board room to attend a meeting with some high up businessmen about how we can possibly extend our company and about our new products which Ray and I were hard at work with. We walk inside the room and we walk right up to wear the big monitor was, he pulls out a chair for me to sit in and i sit down as he stands at the head of the large table.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting. Palmer technologies, what is it exactly? A science company with a brilliant IT department. We want it to be more than that though, we want to advance the company into much more, and we want to extend it into more cities. Starling is great as is all the other places but we want to have a department based in Central City. The city of fun or so it is known. I know what you are all thinking they already have Star Labs but why not have Palmer Technologies there as well and with the help of my Executive CEO we will be able to get the help we need from Star Labs and we will be able to cooperate the two of them into one huge company" Ray spoke confidently
"But Mr. Palmer there is no way you could handle the communication between Central City and Starling City" One of the businessmen asked
"If i may, we would hire more people and create a department solely based on communications. That way we could handle business more smoothly" I but in and Ray smiles at me
"Well i for one think this is a huge move and i think it will be good for the company but who is the one who goes to Central City to help Star Labs and to talk to them" Another man spoke
"I can do that, i have vacation time and i know all the people inside of Star Labs and so i can do that" I answer and Ray looks at me curiously
"So that is a go which is great, Miss Smoak and I will talk about that further later on and we will sort out all the plans for the new move. Back to new products though we are going to be creating a new piece of technology. A phone with enough power that it could change the whole view of technology. Enough processing power to run a computer. It will be great" Ray spoke and i smiled
"Right Mr Palmer, have a prototype ready within the next few months and the funding for it is yours. It was nice doing business with you" A business man stood up and shook our hands
Everyone followed after that one and everyone in the room had eventually shook both Rays and I hand. I felt proud of everything we were doing for this company and it made me happy to think that i had participated in almost all of Ray's plans. After walking everyone to the elevator and saying goodbye to them all, i turned to look at Ray who had his arms open. I ran up to him and gave him a huge hug before we separated and went into his office. We sat down on the comfy chairs before he started to speak to me.
"You can't go to Central City. What about Dan?" He says to me
"He can come with me, everyone loves him there. I am the only one who knows everything and everyone inside of Star Labs and Barry agreed to do this because he doesn't want that company to die, he wants it to continue without Dr Wells and so he wants me and only me to go and sort plans with him, Caitlyn and Cisco. I can do this Ray"
"I dont doubt you, i am just worried about the time you may be gone for and about Dan. He will miss everyone"
"Ray i won't be gone more than a few days and if Dan misses everyone too much i will Skype you or i will ring you and you can collect him"
"Oh My God. That's a good plan, why dont you let Dan stay with me while you are in Central City. You deserve a break by yourself and maybe you can take Thea or Sara with you, it will be good for you"
"Ray i can't ask you to do that"
"You can and i want to Felicity, you deserve it and God knows you need this break, you are here every day, you work every night. You look after Dan by yourself so you deserve a few days with just you and your friends in Central City"
"Thank you so much Ray, I can't wait to tell Dan about this. He will be so excited to stay with you because he really loves you and he will be scared for me to leave because i've never left him. No Ray we cant, i can't leave him i have never left him, and he is going to be so scared…"
"Felicity… We will Skype you when we can, he will love it"
"Okay…you're a life saver Ray. Thank you"
"Thank you Felicity, gives me more time with my favourite little champ and we have so much that we can do. It will be so fun, he can help me with not dangerous work things and we can build things with his Lego and have so much fun. This is going to be great Felicity"
"You sound more excited than i think he will. He will love this though, i bet you when i tell him later he will want to ring you and come to your house straight away"
"Well then you both come over and we will chill out and watch TV or play with his toys"
"Might just do that Ray"
He was about to speak when my phone started ringing, i look at the ID to see that it is in fact Oliver. This excites me a lot because my little monster is with him for the entire day and he is probably calling to ask about when i will be home. I smile at my phone as i show Ray who was calling and he sighs and smiles at the same time which confuses me. I click answer and hold the phone up to my ear.
"Hey Oliver is everything okay?" I ask
"Felicity, i…i dont know what happened he was just…"Oliver was hyperventilating down the phone
"Oliver" I shout down the phone and Ray immediately perks up
"He's gone. We were in the park and i looked away for a minute i promise, i looked back up to see someone taking him from the park. I ran after them but someone hit me in the back of the head and i fell. Felicity please dont worry, i will find him i know who has him. Im so sorry" I can hear the fear
I go into shut down mode with the phone sat in my hand. Did i just hear correctly, Oliver let my son get kidnapped but lets not worry because he knows who it was. How could i be so stupid, how could he be so stupid? What am i supposed to do, to think now? I feel the phone get taken out of my hand by Ray and he holds it up to his ear.
"It's Ray…She's in shock right now, she is like frozen what did you do?…Wait what!…Oliver you cant be serious…How could you let this happen…Dan has been kidnapped this isn't something that you can just fix and just go after…No police we will find him your team and I…We will meet you there…See you soon" Ray puts the phone into his pocket.
"Hey Licity, you must be so scared right now but we have to go. Oliver called everyone and we are meeting them all at the foundary. We will find him and i will make sure he goes to jail for what he has done" I snap out of my shock by the sound of Ray speaking to me
"Who?" I ask him
"Felicity!" He says
"Who has him?" I ask again
"Damien!"
So there we have it, Felicity is both upset and annoyed at Oliver. Who is going to save the day and is Dan ever going to forgive Oliver, in fact is Felicity ever going to forgive him? I dont know we will have to see wont we!
