Disclamer: someday.
It was a long week, at day doing all the work as a CEO and at night going out patrolling with Oliver. It was exhausting, so when I finally came home yesterday after a long day I was so glad I could go to bed knowing that when I woke up it would be weekend. So here I am lying in bed 11 am Saturday thinking how lucky I am. Roy is back so he and John will go patrolling this weekend so Oliver and I were off the hook we had a whole weekend all to ourselves. "Here first of all coffee." "Baby you know me to well." He walked towards me with a huge mug, a smile on his face and nothing more than his boxer. That was a very nice view. "Thanks baby just what I need." "Me or the coffee?" "You're making me choose? Well in that case you know I love you very much but…" "You are choosing the coffee? You will regret that, come here." He put the mug down and jumped on the bed showering me with kisses. "Hahaha I choose you, I choose you." "That's my girl." He gave me a huge smile and start kissing me again. After a while I broke off the kiss. "Do I smell something burning?" "Oh no the eggs." He jumped off the bed and disappeared into the kitchen. "Need some help?" "No you stay there I'll just start over." "Okay I'm taking a quick shower."
Once I heard the water running, I took my cellphone and called Thea. "This is Thea." "Hey Thea it's me are you busy today?" "Only tonight why?" "That's okay can you do something for me?" "Yeah sure what is it?" "I need you to come and pick up Felicity." "Why what's wrong?" "Nothing's wrong. Do you remember what we talked about this week? Well it's going to happen tonight so I need you to distract Felicity. Go do something, ùi need to make some preparations. I'll text you when you can bring her back." "Really it's going to happen today? Aaah I'm so happy. I can totally keep her busy. I can go shopping or whatever." "Thank you Thea, ohh and one more thing, can you make sure she wears something suitable?" "Hey it's me you talking about, of course I can. When do I need to pick her up?" "In about an hour, thanks Thea." "Anything for my brother." "Hey babe who where you talking to?" There she was the woman of my life I nothing more than her towel. "It was Thea, she wants to take you shopping or something." "Really, I was looking forward to spend the day with you. I was going to making you watch all the Castle episodes, you have no idea what you're missing." "Ohh baby I know I was looking forward to it too but well it's Thea, no one ever said no the her. And once she made up her mind…" "Yeah I know she is your sister looks like you got something in common. When is she coming?" "She will be here in an hour." "Are you coming with us?" "Uhh no I know Thea, when she's shopping it could take all day. I think I'll go for a run." "Okay but tomorrow you're totally mine." "I'm always yours." I pulled her to me and gave her a kiss. "I better got dressed."
I had just enough time to get dressed and eat my breakfast before Thea showed up. "Hey Felicity it's you and me today. Let's get going we have a long day ahead of us." So that's how we ended up at the mall going from one shop into the other. Thea was clearly in her element. When it was finally time for lunch my feet were killing me. But it didn't look like Thea was ready to go home even when she bought bags full of clothing. So I ate as slow as I could so my legs got some more rest. After lunch it apparently was time for me to get something because Thea kept throwing clothes at me that I should fit. It was odd, the only things she gave to me were dresses with matching jewelry and shoes. I ended up in a deep red dress that hugged my body, ended half way my upper legs and had a nice V-neck. That was the one she found perfect, she insisted to buying me it and I couldn't take it off. "You will need it, you'll see." Something is definitely going on but I don't know what it is.
When the girls left I went to the store to get all the things I need for tonight. When I got home I got straight at work. I put the tablecloth on the table and set it for 2, putting one of the candles in the middle with one of the roses I bought, the others are in a vase. The rest of the candles I spread around the room so they were everywhere. Now that the room was set I got to work in the kitchen. I made tomato soup, the salad and scampi diabolique with pasta, knowing this is Felicity's favorite dish. When it was done I took a shower trying to calm down my nerves. I really hope she will like it I never did this for anyone but Felicity is special. She deserves that someone takes care of her once in a while. I only hope she let me be that person. I put on my black tux and send a message to Thea. "I'm ready, you can come home." "Okay just wrapping up here. :p" I tuned on some soft music and waited until Felicity got home.
"Thank you Thea I really had a nice day, it was fun. And thank you for the dress." "I had fun too, we need to do this more often. The dress looks good on you it would have been a shame to let it hanging there." "You want to come upstairs?" "No thanks I need to get to the club, maybe next time." I gave her one last hug and got to my apartment. I was looking for my key wen Oliver opened the door, all dressed up in his tux. "What's going on? Are we going somewhere?" "No we are staying in tonight." He gave me a kiss and pulled me through the door. That's when I saw it, there were candles everywhere and soft music was paying. "Wha…What is this?" "I decided to make you some dinner, I hope you like it." "Oliver this is beautiful thank you. So that's why Thea made me wear this." "Yes, and let me say you look stunning." "Did you ask her to take me out?" "Yes, I wanted to surprise you." "Well I'm definitely surprised. I didn't know you could cook." "My maid taught me. Do you want a glass of wine?" "Yes, thank you." I followed him to the table. "You even got some roses. You do know how to charm a girl." "Anything for you my love." "Now how was your day?" "It was really nice hanging out with Thea, I like her." "I'm very pleased to hear that. Now I will get the soup." Why is he so acting strange? "Oliver why are you so nerves?" "I'll just hope you like it, I never did this for anyone so."
"Mmmm Oliver that was amazing, now it's definitely my favorite dish. Who thought you could cook that good." "I'm glad you liked it." "I loved it Oliver." I got up and stood beside her offering her my hand. "Let's dance." She took my hand and stood up. I pulled her against me holding her hand and sneaking my other around her. We softly swayed on the music quietly enjoying each other. "Oliver, this is the sweetest thing someone ever done for me. Thank you." "You're welcome." I pulled her closer and kissed her softly. While we were dancing I tried to calm my nerves again. It didn't work, not until I do it. I could feel my heart racing, my hand palms sweating and my mouth running dry. Come on Oliver you can do this, what could go wrong? No, don't think about it. You love her, she loves you so no need to worry right. What if... No just do it. "Felicity." I took a step back so I was only holding her hand. She was waiting till I say something. I looked her deep in the eyes and bent on one knee. She looked at me questionably. "Felicity, when I came back from the island I was lost, thanks to you I found my way again. You were always here for me even when I pushed you away. You always listened when I wanted to talk, even if I didn't you truly understood me. I know I kept everybody away from me but you wouldn't back off, you stayed. Opened me up piece by piece. You showed me what true love is, and I found it with you. Everything I am now is because of you. When I look into your eyes right now I can see a part of me. It's a part I never want to lose. I see the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with, even if it is only one year or maybe 60. I want to get home to you, hold you while you sleep and wake up in the morning knowing you're mine. You're my future and I love you with all my heart. Felicity Smoak will you marry me?" I opened the little box I was holding.
The tears are running down my eyes. "Yes yes I will." Oliver let the breath he held go and smiled relieved and happy at the same time. He slipped the ring over my finger, it is a hollow heart made from little diamonds with an arrow running through it. "I hope you like it." "I love it." He pulled me in and kissed me passionately. "I love you." "I love you to." "I can't believe it." "You better believe it my love." "I never thought Oliver Queen was a marrying type." "The old one wasn't, you changed me Felicity." "Well I'm glad I did." I kissed him again. I am going to marry Oliver Queen. Wow, I never been happier. This is a dream come true. "This is best day of my life." "That makes 2 of us. In time I can call you truly mine." "I was always yours. And I always will be." "And I'm yours Felicity." We stayed up for hours cuddling, kissing and talking about the future. About starting a family one day. I know one day I will have that with Oliver, a family of our own. But for now I'm happy just the way we are. We enjoyed each other in pure bliss, and that night we made passionately love.
