What's wrong with us when happy hurts

You feel hopeless hoping things will turn around

Notes:

Thank you so much to everyone who gave me kudos! I really appreciate it and I'm sorry I tend to forget to mention it! It means a lot!

Okay, so the relationship between Roy and Sara is along the way of the one she's had with Jax, and believe me it hurts me to not have the Sara/Jax friendship in here but Sara unfortunately doesn't know him that well and probably won't, because she's in Star and not traveling through time. But she has spent a lot of time with Roy while she was in Star the first time and they sort of developed the same kind of bond that she has with Jax in Legends. But Roy and Jax are total bros! That's my HC and that's part of this story now. Roy should've been Jax 1.0. if you'd asked me.
Just like Roy walked in on Oliver and Sara in the Foundry on more than one occasion. It may or may not have been on purpose to mess with them... lmao!

I hope you guys enjoy this part.

Chapter 26

You feel hopeless hoping things will turn around I can not face this alone I need you I can't get by on my own

Sara

"Are you sure about this, Sara?" Ollie looked at her concerned and doubtful. She understood where he was coming from and his feelings, but part of her was convinced that he needed to do this. He needed to put his suit on for, possibly, one last time and help everyone save the world. She couldn't say why, she just had this gut feeling that it was important, that it was something he had to do. She couldn't but he could, he had to.

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure. Just... stay out of unnecessary trouble? And come back home to me... to us." Fear suddenly gripped her, an icy fist was squeezing her heart painfully. What if he wouldn't come back home? What if he died? How was she... how was she supposed to do this without him? She tried to push those feelings away, knowing that Ollie wouldn't leave their apartment. Not if he felt that she was scared at the prospect of having him leave and never come back.

"Sara, hey, look at me Pretty Bird. I won't leave you. I promised you, you wouldn't have to do this alone. That I'd be right here, by your side, the whole time. I promise I won't let you go through this alone. I promise I'll come back home to you and our little Hummingbird." He sounded so sure and determined and she wanted to believe him, she forced herself to believe him at least until he had left, she'd let reality remind her that their track record told a different story once he was gone. That things rarely went the way they wanted them to. Life was never kind to them. Circumstances always tore them apart as soon as they had slipped into a routine after being pushed back together again. But she let herself believe him, for this moment in time she was willing to believe him. She placed her hand atop of his on her stomach, softly smiling at him.

"Okay." He returned her smile before bending down and kissing her, softly at first but soon it became more passionate, almost frantic, both of them knowing it might very well be their last kiss, ever. She held on to him desperately, trying hard to reign in her emotions, worried that he might change his mind if she couldn't get a hold of her feelings and ended up breaking down then and there. They pulled apart to catch their breaths before Ollie leaned in again to give her another quick, soft kiss before dropping to his knees and placing both of his hands on her stomach, bending forward and tenderly kissing it too. She placed one of her hands on his shoulder, just to caress his neck and burry it in his hair. He stayed like this for a moment, his head bent, forehead touching her pregnant belly, his hands still on either side of it framing his head. Her hand that wasn't stroking his hair was lying atop one of his. He gave her stomach another gentle kiss and then slowly got back up just to press a tender and lingering kiss on her forehead. He squeezed her hand before dropping it and turning around and striding out of their apartment right after, his back and shoulders held in a tense straight line and his head held high.
