Disclamer: pffft...
The next day Ray wasn't at work witch eased my nerves a little knowing I won't be confronted with him. But as the week comes to an end with everyday working my but off Ray still haven't show up. So now it's Friday. As soon as I got to my office Ray's assistant walked in with a bung of papers. Maybe he is back I thought. "Yes Peter?" "Ray asked me to get these documents to you immediately, he said it was urgent." "So he's back?" "No he called me and send the papers in an email." "Oh okay, what is it about?" "I think you need to see for yourself." After that Peter put the papers on my desk and left my office. I wonder what this is all about. My eyes started scanning the documents. I couldn't believe it. Ray made me temporary CEO of Palmer Technologies. But why? Why would he do that? I called him. "Hello Felicity I think you got the papers?" "Yes I did but why would you do that Ray? Why me?" "Because you're the best person Ii could think of to handle it without destroying the business." "Why are you leaving?" "I need to get out of town for a while, I don't know when I come back so yeah that's why." "Where are you going?" "Just out of town Felicity. But I need to go now. Talk to you later. Goodbye." When he ended the call, I somehow had a feeling I won't be seeing him anymore. But wow I'm CEO, for now. I didn't see that one coming. So the rest of the day everybody congratulated me. I was glad to go home that day, I was almost home when I remembered Oliver saying he was going to get some workout done. I turned around going to the foundry instead.
"Felicity that's fantastic!" She just told me she was CEO, okay maybe temporary but that's just great news. I am so happy for her. I picked her up and spun around. "Congratulation Felicity." Diggle gives her a hug and Roy a thumps up with a big smile. I'm so proud of her. "We need to celebrate. What do you want to do?" "Hmm well it feels like ages I went clubbing and technical were at a club so…" "Let's take the night off then." "I need to get home firs to change." "So what do you say guys meet here in like one hour?" "Yes please, you to need to go with us it'll be fun." "I'm definitely coming it feels like ages I talked to Thea, so see you in an hour." Roy did absolutely everything to be around Thea so that leaves John. "Please John come with us, it won't be fun without you." Felicity gave him her biggest smile. "Alright I'll come. For you." He hugged her and left also.
When we got home I got to my closet knowing perfectly what I would wear tonight. A really sexy dress I bought especially to get Oliver's attention , but we never went clubbing so I never had the opportunity to wear it. And today I finally could. When Oliver came into the room I quickly hid my dress not wanting him to see it until I got it on. "Got something to hide my love?" He smiled at me. "No just a surprise." I gave him a wink. "Can't I see?" "Of course you can, when I'm ready." He gave me a pout. "Can't I do anything to change your mind so you'd show me now?" He got closer to me. "You probably can, that's why I'm kicking you out of the room." I shoved him out of the room and locket the door. "You know I could just kick it in right?" "And you know I can kick you out of my apartment?" I hear him chuckle. "Yeah I know." When I heard him walk away I quickly showered and applied some make up. I put on my deep green bra and panties. Arrow green just as my dress. When I was ready I unlocked the door.
Finally I heard the door unlock. And there she was, looking as beautiful as ever. "So what do you think?" "I...I…y" She wore a silk dress that hugged her body, the dress ended half way her upper legs and have a half split skirt which gave a good view on her endless long legs. It had a deep V-neck that accentuates her breasts. And on top of it all, she wore my color, my green. " A speechless Oliver. Never knew that could happen." She smiled at me. "So you like it I assume." "Like it? Baby you look ravishing." I pulled her in my arms, that woman didn't know what she did to me. She ended up flat against me, now she could feel exactly what she did to me. "Well well mister Queen is that your lighter I feel?" She gave me a teasing look, but I could see her eyes darkening. I pulled her even closer to me. "That's what you do to me Felicity. I don't think I want to leave anymore. I know a few other ways how we could celebrate." I winked at her.
My legs turned into jelly when I looked in his eyes, I could see the fire burning in them. The promise of what he'll do to me. I wanted to tease him a little more. "If you like the dress already, then wait until you see what's under it." His eyes darken even more. "That's it we're not leaving." "Oliver Roy and Diggle will be waiting on us." When he kissed me passionately I almost gave in, almost. "No my love we're going, we have time enough when we get back." "Baby, let us stay home. I will make you a very happy woman." His lips brushed again my ear, it made me shudder even more. My whole body was on fire and he knew that. I escaped from his arms to stop the temptation. "We're going Oliver. They are coming especially for me. We need to go." "Felicity wait a moment." "No Oliver we need to go cause if we don't leave now we never leave." "That's not what I meant honey I... I just need a moment. To cool down."
Once Oliver 'cooled down' we went to the club. Roy and Diggle were already waiting at the entrance. "Wow Felicity you look really great." John said. Roy was about to comment also but when he saw the look on my face he quickly changed his mind. "I'll go find Thea." Felicity gave me a little shove. "Be nice." She said. I let my hand rest at the small of her back and we went inside Verdant. "Oliver. Where have you been? It's been 4 weeks since I saw you." It was Thea. I didn't know how I could explain my absent. Luckily Felicity stepped in. "I'm so sorry Thea Oliver was with me and…" When she said it she moved a little closer to me and led her sentence die out with meaning. "With you but… O ow yeah no problem at all. But you could at least have said anything Ollie. I thought something bad happened." We all shared a knowing look, something did happen but she didn't have to know. "I'm sorry Thea I think I kept him uum busy." She gave Thea a shy smile. "That's okay but now you need to come with me I think we have to talk. Boy's drinks are from the house." I gave Felicity a last kiss knowing Thea would not let this go till she talked with her. "It's going to be fine don't worry."
Thea grabbed my arm pulling me towards her office. I looked at Oliver for some help but all he did was laugh. "Don't be scared Felicity I don't bite." I gave her a nervous smile. "I just want to talk to you." "Okay what do you want to know?" "I'm just glad that you're finally together." "Finally?" "When Ollie came back from the island he was a different person, distant and hard to reach. He acted like he had fun but I could see it wasn't so. Then he met you. I could see him change over time. He relaxed more had even some fun sometimes especially when he was teasing you. He laughed more often and was reasonable. And if he did lose his cool you we're the only one who stood up to him, who wasn't afraid." "No of course I wasn't, Oliver is a good man he would never hurt me." "He probably won't but still nobody dared to be near him at those times except for you. And now he is a ganged man. I can see my brother form before the island again. More grown up but still my brother. Thanks to you I got him back. He is very happy with you, even before you to were together. He loved you for a very long time without even realizing himself." Tears welled up in my eyes when she talked, did she really think that about me? Sure Oliver was different then when he came back but did I helped with that? I liked the idea I did. "Thea I don't know what to say, here I toughed I was getting the 'if you hurt him I'm hiring someone to kill you' talk." "No I can see he loves you. You make him happy." "I love him to, I really do . And he makes me happy." "I can see that. So I wish you two the best. And I'm in your debt for everything you did to bring him back, but if you'll hurt him…" She winked at me. "I know, I know I'm dead." To my surprise she pulled me in a hug. It felt good, I think Thea and I will get along just fine. "I'm so happy for you two."
We sad by the bar when we saw the girls came back with their arms entwined together. "Ollie you picked a good one. She's a keeper." I pulled Felicity towards me so she could stand between my legs. "She picked me. But I'm not planning on letting her go." Felicity leant back against me. "I'm not that easy to get rid of." I kissed her deeply till Thea ended it. "Okay you guys, if you want to do that you would have stayed at home. Come on I want to dance" Felicity pinched my leg and gave me a meaningful look. She moved so her lips we're against my ear and wishers one word that send shivers down my spine. "Tonight."
