Private to Oliver || Voice
[There's a long pause as she's unsure what to say. Then, finally, she speaks. Her voice a bit shaky.]

Oliver, can we, um ... talk?

I'll be there.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

[True to her word Felicity is sitting on the bench with the ocean to her back. She's wearing a red dress with a frilled shirt over it and fiddling with her hands nervously. She hasn't actually talked to Oliver since the incident with her brain being out of whack. She's not used to not seeing him every day and it feels weird not seeing him. It feels like they're drifting apart even though it's only been a few days. She hates it, but that's not the most important thing. That's Tommy and how Oliver is holding up and handling his being here.]

	Oliver had woken Laurel up long enough to let her know that he was heading out for a little bit to meet up with Felicity. She had seemed upset enough that he wanted to ensure she was alright. As the bench came into view, he caught her eye, raising one hand in greeting. "Hey," Oliver called out, once he was close enough for her to hear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When he comes into view she stands and crosses he distance to give him a tight hug. She would have done that two years ago right? She's pretty sure she would have. Besides, she knows she'd need a hug in this sort of situation. In fact, she really did when her ex-boyfriend showed back up again. "Are you alright?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The hug caught him a bit off-guard. It always did when anyone other than his family, or Laurel, got too touchy. He wasn't really a hugging sort of person, but Felicity certainly was. He pulled away enough to look down at her, brow furrowing slightly. "I was going to ask you the same thing. Or weren't you the one who sounded like she was in tears?"

She looked down, frowning. That was, surprisingly noticing of him actually. She'd sort of assumed he wouldn't notice exactly how bad off she was at the moment. "Yeah, no, I mean I'm not really doing well, but that's not the point." She looks back up, eyes full of worry.

"I talked to your friend Tommy." She knows how much Tommy's death broke him, how he had to disappear to a deserted island and how she and Diggle had to hunt him down to bring him back. How Tommy's death still hurts him to this day in her time. She knows how deep that scar goes.

Oliver paused a moment, swallowing. But of all of the people he could share any pain with, Felicity wasn't exactly one of them. For all that their relationship had changed in her time, they weren't that close in his.

Arms dropped as he stepped away. "I'm fine, Felicity." Even if he wasn't. "What is going on with you? That is the point. That's why you wanted to meet right?" Not for him.

Her face fell at the reaction. Right, she forgot. That was stupid of her really. They're not friends, he probably doesn't even think of her like that. She stepped back, turning to look at the ocean. "I'll be fine. I was worried about you. Call it a habit but when I know something's going to bother you I worry."

SHe knows it's probably unwanted. She's probably unwanted, no longer needed now that Oliver doesn't have to be The Arrow. Still, she can't help caring and worrying about him. She always has.

He saw the face fall, he would have been blind not to, but he couldn't bring himself to open up to her. "I'm fine," he repeated, voice soft but firm. Or he would be. He'd promised Laurel that guilt about Tommy wouldn't come between them anymore.

"Do you need anything, Felicity?" He wouldn't completely abandon her. They weren't very close, but he didn't wish to see her hurt.

"No, I guess not." Of course, she wouldn't say anything like James had suggested. They were barely friends to him and no matter how much it hurt, no matter how much it ripped a hole in her heart that she probably would never be his girl again, she couldn't put that on him.

She'd just continue to try and live in four different worlds and not be torn apart. Even if, in the end, it would probably end in her asking Jaden to erase her from the program entirely. "Just, let me worry about you alright? Even when we were trying to find Walter I still worried when something was bothering you. I don't want to lose you; even if you barely know me."

	"Would you tell me if there was?" Potentially a rhetorical question there, but he didn't want to see anyone in pain if he could help it. Still Oliver half sighed at her next question. "I don't want you to worry if there's nothing you can do about it." He wouldn't really confide in her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She turns to look at him, eyes searching his face. He may not know her but she knows him. She knows what hurts him, she knows what drives him and no matter how much she tries to be Felicity of two years ago she can't change the things she knows or the way she feels. "Would you want me to? And I'm a worrier. I've worried about you since the night you hid in my car. That's not gonna change."
