Looks like I'm a liar. I'm so sorry that it took me this long to update. I didn't mean to keep you waiting this long, but college is more stressful this semester, which I really didn't expect-
This chapter is more of a filler than anything else, so there isn't much happening, but we get to meet Tommy for the first time (who is surprisingly reasonable). I hope you enjoy this. I'll try to update sooner the next time, but not promises.
As always: I don't own anything. Characters belong to Warner Bros. and DC, and the general idea of this fic belongs to iknowitainteasy.

Apparently, Laurel is mean to Thea.
3:07 PM
I'm working.
3:07 PM
Who's Thea?
3:07 PM
As if you don't know. I'm sure her name popped up when you did my background check.
3:08 PM
I didn't do a background check.
3:08 PM
That's what I'd say.
3:09 PM
I really have to work.
3:10 PM
I'm pretty sure they won't mind that you are texting. Aren't you just an intern?
3:10 PM
Yes. Which is why they actually would mind it.
3:12 PM
What are you doing there?
3:13 PM
Fixing computers.
3:13 PM
Seriously?
3:14 PM
I also do other stuff.
3:15 PM
Like what?
3:16 PM
Getting coffee.
3:16 PM
Sounds like a blast.
3:17 PM
I really don't need you to make fun of me. I have work to do.
3:18 PM
I'm not!
3:19 PM
I'm really not! I was just stating the obvious.
3:20 PM
I still have to work.
3:21 PM
Just quit. I bet you can find another internship or even a job for the summer, if you're as smart as you say you are.
3:21 PM
I can't. I need to gather experience for a real job.
3:23 PM
Are you really planning to fix computers for the rest of your life?
3:23 PM
No.
3:28 PM
Then do another internship. I bet I can get you one at my dad's company.
3:29 PM
An interesting one.
3:31 PM
Thank you for the offer. I really appreciate it. But it does look good on a CV if you have a 8-week-internship at Wayne Enterprises. I will take you up on that offer after this internship ends though.
3:33 PM
If you say so.
3:33 PM
And anytime.
3:34 PM
Someone's calling for me. I gotta go.
3:35 PM
But what about Thea?
xxx
6:58 PM
Talk to your girlfriend.
7:13 PM
What?
7:14 PM
Talk to her. About being mean to your sister.
7:15 PM
And then what?
7:18 PM
I'm not a relationship counselor, Oliver. How would I know?
7:20 PM
But you're smart.
7:20 PM
True.
7:21 PM
And then you could find a way to fix the problem. Do something so that your girlfriend won't be mean to your sister.
7:22 PM
Okay. Thank you.
7:22 PM
You're welcome.

7:22 PM
How's Laurel?
7:23 PM
Fine. Why are you asking?
7:23 PM
I heard she had some issues with her boyfriend's sister.
7:24 PM
What? Who told you that?
7:24 PM
Does Thea Queen really hate Laurel?
7:24 PM
She does?
7:25 PM
That's what I was told.
7:25 PM
By whom?
7:26 PM
By Mr. Oliver Queen himself.
7:27 PM
You two are still texting?
7:28 PM
I know you're making that face. Stop it.
7:28 PM
He keeps texting me. It's a nice distraction.
7:29 PM
A nice distraction, huh?
7:30 PM
He's your sister's boyfriend, Sara. You shouldn't be trying to get anything like that out of me.
7:31 PM
I'll do whatever I want. I ship whoever I want. You can't stop me.
7:31 PM
Wie aren't fictional characters, Sara. You can't ship us.
7:32 PM
Try to stop me.
7:32 PM
You are unbelievable.
7:33 PM
And that's why you love me.

9:23 AM
Awake?
9:25 AM
Yep. What's up?
9:25 AM
Are you still in Gotham?
9:26 AM
I still didn't quit my internship, Oliver. Of course I'm still in Gotham.
9:27 AM
I just wanted to make sure that you weren't visiting your parents or anything.
9:27 AM
It's your first time in Gotham, isn't it?
9:28 AM
It is. Why are you asking?
9:28 AM
Any plans for today?
9:28 AM
Why are you asking?
9:28 AM
Just answer the question.
9:29 AM
I thought about catching up with some of TV shows I've missed because of the finals. Why are you asking?
9:30 AM
That's boring. Get ready. You need to be somewhere in an hour.
9:31 AM
I need what?
9:31 AM
I prepared a surprise for you. You need to leave your apartment for that.
9:32 AM
What surprise?
9:33 AM
I thought you were smart. It isn't a surprise if I tell you what it is.
9:34 AM
I know Gotham. And I asked a friend a favor. So would you please get ready?
9:35 AM
Alright. But if I get kidnapped, I'm going to find you and make you regret that surprise.
9:35 AM
You won't. I promise.
9:36 AM
So where am I going?
9:36 AM
Are you ready?
10:05 AM
Now I am.
10:07 AM
Your surprise is in Otisburg.
10:07 AM
Please tell me that you don't make me go to the Amusement Mile.
10:08 AM
Please. I may be not as smart as you, but I'm certainly not dumb. Of course I'm not sending you to the Amusement Mile.
10:09 AM
Where am I going then?
10:11 AM
I managed to convince a friend to give you a S.T.A.R. Labs tour.
10:12 AM
You did what?
10:12 AM
You're welcome.
10:13 AM
How did you do that?
10:14 AM
I'm Oliver Queen, Felicity. I know people.
10:15 AM
How did you know that I wanted to go?
10:17 AM
I didn't. I guessed.
10:18 AM
Why are you doing this?
10:18 AM
I'm not that much of an asshole as the media makes me look like.
10:20 AM
That's not an answer to my question.
10:21 AM
I'm trying to be a friend.
10:22 AM
Thank you, Oliver. I mean it.
10:23 AM
Enjoy the tour! Terry will be waiting for you. Tell him to give you a S.T.A.R. Labs sweater. It's on me.
10:23 AM
You don't have to do that.
10:24 AM
I can afford it, Felicity. It's no big deal. :)
10:25 AM
Thank you.
10:26 AM
Any time.
xxx
1:01 PM
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!
1:06 PM
I guess you liked it then?
1:08 PM
It was awesome!
1:12 PM
Glad to hear that.
1:46 PM
You can prepare surprises like that any time, by the way.
1:53 PM
I don't know that many people, Felicity. But I'll do my best.
1:56 PM
Thank you again. It was great!
2:08 PM
You're welcome!
xxx
9:27 PM
Did it work?
9:29 PM
Yeah. She thought it was great. Thanks, Tommy.
9:30 PM
Anytime, bro. Although I still don't get why you're trying to please a girl you've never met.
9:32 PM
I told you that I was trying to be a friend, Tommy. I promise I'm not cheating on Laurel this time. And besides, Felicity doesn't seem like a girl who'd be with a guy, who is in a relationship.
9:34 PM
If you say so.
9:35 PM
I promise you. Just don't tell Laurel. She won't believe that.
9:36 PM
I won't. But I think you should. She'll be more pissed if she finds out herself.
9:37 PM
I know. But I really can't deal with her jealousy right now.
