Re: Oliver/Tommy
Tommy chuckled. "Right and she was so good that you formed an aversion to sex apparently. You might want to reconsider your choices of women." He wasn't even touching the fact that Oliver had thought that taking Laurel's sister on a boat was a good idea.
"Do you want to go inside and talk?" he asked. "And no, that wasn't a subtle way to have sex with you. If you're more comfortable talking inside, where we aren't exposed, and you don't have to worry about people trying to kill is and whatever else goes through your mind, then, we should go inside for a while."
He laughed. "So you think of me as the damsel in distress. You do know that I was joking when I said that, many moons ago, right?" He kissed Oliver again, smiling against his lips. "It's ... well, a little weird to be honest, and humbling that you care this much, and I'm not saying that you need to stop, but you can't spend your life worrying about me, treating me like I can't take care of myself. I don't care how good you Re with a bow, or how many people you can shoot. We are doing things together and that means we are equals in this. Also I'm pretty sure that every woman in this team would shoot you if you treated them like damsels in distress. So you really have it easy with me."
He looked up to where TJ was sitting with Travis, before turning to Oliver. "If you had told me that TJ Hammond would end up with a cop who has no money or pedigree, I'd have laughed at you. I know that the future isn't something we can predict under the circumstances. TJ is the perfect example, but he's also proof that you can find happiness here. That's all I want, Oliver. I want us to be happy."
