You Are Not Alone | Olicity

Front Page

"Photo's of the multi- billionaire Oliver Queen leaving his assistants appartment  have been leaked, was this really a buisness call Oliver or do we see a little in office romance going on?" Noami Kingston news reporter for TMZ stated. 

"I heard she was recently promoted from IT to executive  assistant of the CEO,  they do say the quickest way to the top is sleeping with the boss.  Maybe we should all take a page out of this girls book though most of us like to work for our positions in  companies lets see how long this fling lasts.The notorious play boy is never attached for long even the formidable relationship with captain lances daughter laurel lance that didnt last long before he had his sights set elsewhere."

"Now now Katrina, maybe he has changed maybe their in love, i know dare i say it. Could oliver queen finally grow up and smell the coffee, maybe he has and now he realises at almost 30 that it is time to find a woman who works and is respected to settle down with even if she is at the same company"

"Oh come on Noami Mr Queen doesnt have it in him look at the wreckage of a company hes so called managing? if you want my opinion its that Oliver spends to much time shacking up with every woman under QC's roof and not enough time actually working."

"Okay well as harsh as that is and as juicy the story we will have to keep you updated online as this is all we have time for thankyou for joining me Katrina and i will see you all tomorrow bright and early" Noami cuts the show a couple minutes short, even she knew when the story had began to cross the line.

" see you thought i was crazy asking if you and your boss were together, everyone else and there mother believes it"  Donna wines muting the television. She meets felicity in the kitchen to poor herself a cup of coffee. her eyes locked on to a silent felicity who gulps back the last of her coffee. 

"mom!" she groans. 

"what youve not answered me still?"her mother pressed. Now foldng her arms to express her unhappieness.

Felicity sighs taking a  moment to regain her breath and thoughts, she had heard the new cast, She even tried blocking it out with the sound of coffee grinding but that attempt inevitably failed. "nothing like that is going we are very good friends and thats all i dont see him that way mom he's too, high maintence for me" 

"yes i can see how a handsome, intelligent, athletic and wealthy man is such a turn off. i really dont understand you sometimes felicity. And dont try to fool me i know somethings going on, you dont just turn up at your assistants house late at night to appologise for your behaviour, dont think i didnt hear things" donna pushes again this time infuriating felicity more.

"Ugh crap now i'm late, can you just please drop this entire thing mom and i dont know decide where we go for dinner tonight. I'd like to spend sometime with you and have normal mother daughter conversations that dont invlovle my boss and the dumb rumors of social media please." She beggs throwing on her coat barely taking a second glance at mother or the apparment before she had her bag swinging  behind her out of the front door.

"Argh, stupid computer!" felicity yells a disturbed oliver stops his work out to find out whats wrong. Brushing the swet from his body with a towl left on her desk. 

"Felicity?" He ponders whether to step closer. But he does turning her to face him. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, i'm fine just the computer doesnt want to what im asking it too"

"Felicity?" he pushes further. Now holding a hand to her jawline rubbing his thumb against her cheek. She steps in closer to him so they share breathing space. 

"Do you think we would be where we are now had i not worked at QC?" she sighs looking longingly into his eyes searching for the answer before he has chacne to reply.

"WHat does that have to do with you mood?" He shakes his head in confusion not ketting her go.

"Would we, i mean if i hadnt worked in the I.T department, this place where im standing right now, whats going on with us that would be some other girl. SHe'd have my place wouldn't she?"

"But it's not it's you."

"Humor me here"

"You're here nothing is going to change that, nor how i feel about you. WHy are we even having this discussion?" 

"Oliver i dont want to be another notch on the bed frame or a name off the roster whateverit is you have. This means more to me than that" She beggs almost a sob rises in the back of her mouth.

"It means more to me felicity i dont know whats made you think like this but i can assure you that i'm not going anywhere and we are stronger than you think but only if we are together" he says pulling her in for a kiss but not on the lips he places a tender kiss to her forhead and incloses her in his arms, her arms pressed agaisn his chest allowing her to feel the muscels beneath and to take in his oh so familiar scent. She found comfort there a buble where only the two of them existed where they both knew where they stood how one another felt about the other. Felicicty's problem however still llingered on she knew olivers past with other women, she'd expereiecned him go through multiple relationships since she began working with him. But that didn't hide the fact that other poeple saw him the same way as the playboy the man-child who couldnt hold down a drink let alone a relationship. She had seen the change in him herrself, she'd helped him get to this point but thats not what she saw. And that was what truely scared her. She knew nomatter hwo happy they were other people wouldnt see it that way it would a sawdid affair that they should be ashamed of not happy to announce. 

"I love you, remember that" He whispers into her hair.

"I love you too" She replies enjoying the moments within his hold.
