"When your soul finds the soul it was waiting for
When someone walks into your heart through an open door
When your hand finds the hand it was meant to hold
Don't let go
Someone comes into your world
Suddenly your world has changed forever"

"Well done. All of you." Amanda began with, smiling in a way Oliver had never seen her do before. "We have Damien Darhk in custody as we speak, being interrogated by our top agents. Roy and Oliver, we are releasing you from your duties with honours. That is all." Amanda waved everyone off, and the room disbanded. Oliver headed straight for Roy, clapping him on the back. "Well done, Roy! We are free now. How does that sound?" Roy smiled without humour.
"I'm not so sure it's a good thing. I had purpose working for A.R.G.U.S. I don't want to go back to the man I was. The boy I was." Oliver looked at Roy speculatively, taking in his expression. "Come to mine for dinner tomorrow night. I'm going to speak to my family tell them I'm back tonight. That I'm here to stay." Roy paused, before nodding, his shoulders rising.
"Thanks, man. That sounds nice." Oliver nodded, giving him a manly hug.

"Where are you going?" Felicity asked her mother, who was walking away from the group. Donna hesitated. "I've been asked to become an A.R.G.U.S agent full time, Felicity. And I've said yes." Felicity's eyes widened, and smiled happily.
"That's great news! I'm so happy for you!" She said, confused by her mother's sombre expression. "What's up? Are you not pleased?" She questioned. Donna shrugged her shoulders slightly. "It's not that. They want to send me to the A.R.G.U.S base in Australia, in Perth." Felicity's eyebrows shot up in horror.
"Oh. I see." She said nonchalantly, not giving anything away. Donna's face softened. "Felicity. You will see me again. I'm a phone call away, and you can come and visit me any time."

"What happens with all my father's assets?" Felicity asked curiously. "I mean, I've never had a job. Or been broke." Donna laughed.

"A.R.G.U.S will take care of that and transfer all his funds to you. Don't worry." Donna said, smiling proudly at her daughter. "I'm proud of you, Felicity. You made the right decision, without any casualties. You and Oliver make quite the team." Felicity nodded, brushing away a tear from her face.
"I love you, mum." Donna pulled her into a warm embrace, stroking her hair. "I love you too. So much. I'll see you soon." She said, before letting go to talk to Amanda and Nyssa. Felicity walked away, sobs racking in her chest as she buried them deep.

"What are you going to do?" Oliver asked Felicity, still euphoric from his release from A.R.G.U.S's hold. "You can always stay with me. At my mothers house I mean." Oliver said. Felicity shook her head sadly, her heart shattering at her choice.
"Oliver... I'm going home. To China. I've lived there most of my life. I can't give up everything I've ever known up just to be with you, that's... Mad." Oliver's face dropped, his smile vanishing from his face. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I..." Felicity held up her hand.

"It's better if I just leave." Felicity said, her heart heaving at her own words. Oliver's eyes crinkled, his face clearing of any pain and going blank. "If... If that's what you want." He choked out, his voice breaking. Felicity nodded, moving to turn away when Oliver pulled her back, kissing her on the forehead, his warm lips ghosting her skin. "Goodbye, Felicity Smoak." He said gently.

"Goodbye Oliver Queen."

Lyla sat behind her desk, looking on at Diggle as he spoke to Amanda. Seeing him again had brought back fond memories, when they had first met on her first tour, when he had thrown a can of beans at her and she knew she loved him, when they had married under the harsh desert sun. And she knew she couldn't bear to let him leave her again. "Johnny?" She called out as he headed to leave. He looked at her curiously before heading into her office. "What's up?" He asked, standing uncomfortably in front of her desk. She got up and stood in front as he sat on the chair. "I want you to stay here. With me." Lyla said nervously, looking him in the eye. Diggle looked back, surprise colouring his face. "Lyla. You left me. Because you didn't want me once we came back."

"I know." Lyla said mournfully. "And it was the worst mistake of my life. I tried to track you down, but your a hard man to find."

"Lyla..."

"Johnny. I missed you. Every day. Please don't leave me. I promise, I will do everything in my power to get your trust back." Dig fell silent, lost in thought.
"Lyla. I missed you too. But my first obligation is to Felicity. Let me get her back safe first, then I will come back. Fair enough?" Lyla smiled brightly, feeling happy for the first time in a long time. "Okay." She said, leaning in and kissing Dig firmly on the lips, which he reciprocated.

"Felicity!" Sara called out to her friend, rushing after her.
"Sara. I'm guessing your staying with Laurel." Sara nodded, scrutinising her face carefully. "Felicity. Stay safe okay? I'm one flight away, I will jump if you call, you know that." Felicity nodded, giving her a tight hug.
"Good luck, Sara. I'll see you again." Sara nodded, tears spilling down her face. "Bye, Felicity." She said. Sara walked off, and found herself standing in front of Nyssa who smiled at her. "Hey." Nyssa said, a little shyly.

"Hi." Sara replied. "Well done." She added. Nyssa nodded.
"You too."

"You're really not coming back with me?" Diggle asked Felicity as she helped him pack his stuff into boxes.
"I can't. I have nothing here for me Dig."

"That's not true. You have Oliver."

"I'm not sure I'm enough for him, Dig. Maybe I was just a passing fancy. I'm not so sure I can move my whole life because of someone I've known for barely 2 months."

"Felicity. Don't play the 'I barely know him' card. He loves you, anyone can see that. And you wouldn't have gone to all that trouble to save him if you didn't feel the same way."

"Sounds like you want to date him, Dig."

"No, I just want to see you happy. And if there was a word for how much I want you two to be together, I would use it."

"Aw. Do you ship us?"

"Yes. In fact, I made up your name. You know, like bradgelina. Yours is Olicity."

"That's cute. And also my first born child's name now." Felicity said with a laugh.

"Felicity. Joking aside, you should go to him." Dig said seriously.

"Dig. If he wants me, he can come to me. I'm insecure and I need him to make the first move." Dig rolled his eyes, shifting the boxes into the van parked outside. "Okay, if that's how you want to play this."

Felicity shifted slightly. She was unsure about a lot of things, but her feelings for Oliver weren't. If he was true to his word, if he truly wanted to be with her, then he would come.
