Oliver held Felicity hand tightly as they sat in the waiting room for Roy to come out of surgery. Oliver squeezed her hand every few minutes making sure that she was sitting next to her. When he had heard, Diggle yelling and then found out she had gone on a suicidal mission for Slade his heart had almost jumped out of his chest.

Felicity's eyes were beginning to close; the day had been long, and tiring and all she wanted was to know that Roy was safe so she could sleep.

"I was so scared" Oliver admits pulling her attention towards him.

"I can imagine, Slade having that information meant, the end of the organisation possibly the end of you and ..."

"That's not what I was afraid of" Oliver turns in his seat and cups her face stroking her cheek lightly. "I was terrified that something would happen to you and that I would lose you." He places a kiss on her forehead another thing to ensure him that she was safe and alive and in front of him.

"You're not going to lose me" she smiled up at him dropping her head on his shoulder.

A couple of hours had passed; Oliver had told Felicity to rest, and he would wake her up when Roy was out of the theatre. Oliver had called his trusted doctor and asked him to look into Roy's new kidney in case Slade had done something to it. He hoped that he hadn't and had genuinely given Roy a kidney as a gesture of good will for Felicity, who retrieved the hard drive for him. He worried that the moment Slade realised the drive had been wiped he would be seeking revenge. He would come for her, for her family, for him. He knew Slade would stop at nothing to take her away from him; he was hell bent on revenge against Oliver; hell bent on making his life miserable. Oliver had done many things since he had joined the Bratva; he had even killed innocent men. Since joining the Bratva almost 14 years ago Oliver's life had been consumed by darkness, he had given up pieces of his soul up for the life he led. He had been with many women, one woman Laurel he had been with on and off and she had been the only person who knew of his life as a member of the Russian mob.

Oliver had believed he was in love with her; he knew that his parents or should he say his mother had expected him to marry her. But since meeting Felicity Oliver knew that he had never truly loved her. If he had cared about her and loved her, he never would have cheated on her endless with numerous amounts of women. Since meeting Felicity, his life had become stressful, yet he had done not seek out any woman looking for a release. He was happy and content, and he did not want to be with anyone; he did not want to have a meaningless fling with a woman. Meeting Felicity on the plane and having her bubbliness thrown at him, it had made him feel something he had never felt before. In the short month that had passed and spent practically every day with her, he had fallen for her. They were still miles away from starting anything despite being married; he wanted to get to know her properly. She was special, and he wanted to woo her, he wanted to take her to restaurants, buy her flowers and go for long walks in the manor's gardens.

Oliver looked down at the sleeping blonde and smiled softly, this blonde had changed his life slowly, and the thought of her not being there was unimaginable. He knew the moment they left the hospital he would have to protect her by all means; he had to become her personal bodyguard he could not let anything happen to her.

Oliver kissed the top of her head waking her up when he saw Donna, his father and the doctor entered the room. Felicity opened her eyes and looked up at the doctor, Oliver felt her tense as she sat up a little straighter. He squeezed her hand in support and stood up alongside her never letting go of her hand.

"Roy is out of surgery; everything went well, kidney is good once he recovers from the surgery he can go back to living his normal life" Donna choked out, tears in her eyes. Robert placed his hand on her shoulder and smiled at her then back at Felicity reassuring her that everything was ok.

"That is great news, oh … I think I'm going to pass out" Felicity sighed as she hugged her mother.

"Donna and I spoke while we waited for Roy to get out theatre" Robert interrupts the two women. Oliver stands next to Felicity, his hand on her lower back as he listened to what Robert was about to tell them. "I know that Oliver would probably want his space you both would. So I would love it for the time being if you moved into a cottage on the Queen grounds" Robert smiles and Oliver is relieved that it was something serious. Oliver looks at Felicity's face and can see a confused a look with a hint of excitement. "I have spoken to Donna and I think it is best for her and Roy to move into the pool house. The pool house is much smaller than the cottage but has plenty of rooms, bigger than the townhouse," Robert explains. "Until the Slade situation is taken care of our family is only safe on our grounds. I know what happened with one of the men today but once we return we will be questioning all our men and make sure we can trust them."

Oliver and Felicity nodded and looked towards Donna to see if she agreed Donna nodded and looked at Felicity giving her a small smile.

Once everyone scattered Felicity faced Oliver and smirked, "I guess we are living together, well we already are but this is different our home and …"

"I look forward to it" Oliver grinned.

"If you want, we don't have to share a room, the reason we are, were, was for the cover but now, I mean if you don't want to we don't …"

Oliver kissed her hard, sucking on her bottom lip and then pulled up for air. "Absolutely not" he raised his eyebrow and gave her a small wink.

The next few days had gone past quickly; they had not heard anything from Slade, and there had been no incidents. Oliver and Felicity had moved into their cottage on the Queen grounds; Felicity had been adamant that because the place was small they did not need a cook or a cleaner. As they had spent the last few days packing and moving into the cottage and with Oliver making sure all his men was to be trusted, Oliver and Felicity had not spent much time together. However that night was going to be different, Oliver had decided to order some food and spend some time with her. Roy was still in hospital recovery from surgery; Oliver had added extra security to Roy's room, and Donna had moved into the pool house.

So Oliver had decided to spend some time with her, with his crazy life and with Slade he didn't know when he would get a chance to sit down with her.

"Hi," he said as Felicity had walked down the stairs into the kitchen, she came down wearing a tight orange dress with cut-outs on the back.

"Hi" she smiled as she walked towards him with a glint in her eyes.

"I hope you like Chinese" he placed the food into bowls and placed it on the table that he had lighted with candles.

"I love Chinese" Oliver pulls out her seat, and she smiled up at him, "Thank you, and for this, this is nice" she giggled like a school girl.

They ate and shared stories of their past. Oliver revealed being kicked out four colleges; he had attempted to juggle being in the Bratva and college but he went to parties, got drunk and wasted and had to be in the Bratva also. They laughed and giggled and drank a whole bottle of red wine.

"Can I ask you a question?" she asked looking down at her empty plate.

"You just did" he teased, "go on."

"Why didn't you just leave me there, back in Russia, it would have been easier if you had just left me there" she whispered the last part.

Oliver reached over and took hold of her hand, brushing his fingers along her knuckles. "When I met you on the plane and for a split second you did not know who I was, you made me feel something I haven't felt in what seems like forever."

"And what was that?"

"Light, like the whole world had been lifted off my shoulders like I wasn't a Bratva Captain, a man with ghosts in the closet." Oliver stands up and goes around and kneels down in front of her.

"When you were put in my room I was terrified. All I wanted was to kill whoever had touched you, in the past I had tried to save girls from that fate, sometimes it didn't work because they kept returning." Oliver took her other hand in his and kissed both of her knuckles. "I have watched first-hand what … men in this life do to women, women who they have turned into whores and their wives." Oliver sighed and looked away for a moment, "I was not about to stand back and have someone hurt you, taint that light and spark I saw and felt from you. Felicity I … we went around it the wrong way, but I am so glad you are in my life. I could not have asked for a better wife" he laughed, pulling her out of the chair and now stood up straight.

"Thank you, Oliver, I … you saved my life and … I could not … thank you enough and I …" she laughed, "I am so glad that, well not glad but glad you are in my life that I met you …"

Oliver kissed her, interrupting her sentence. Pulling back for air he looked at her and smiled as her eyes remained closed. "You liked that?" he teased her, rubbing her nose against hers.

"You make me see stars" she giggled.

"Well if a kiss makes you see stars" he kissed her neck slowly.

"Oliver."

"Sorry" he pulls back.

"No, not that … don't stop just … I don't usually put out on the first date" she smirked.

"Well Mrs Queen I think I owe you a few more dates and …" Oliver stops talking, all his time training had taught his skills, his senses had heightened like hearing. He turned his head and saw it, a missile.

He pushed Felicity out of the way, and they both hit the ground hard.

Their new home had been destroyed, and they lay on the floor under the rumble.
