A/N: Honestly, Oliver being a jealous little shit over Felicity and Barry hanging out together is amazing. By the way, can someone tell me what episode of Arrow (or I think it might be The Flash) does Barry show up as the Flash and enters the Arrowcave with Cisco and Caitlin?? I'm looking for that big initial crossover moment.
Anyway, back to the story!
It had been a couple of hours after the whole Queen Consolidated thing with Moira returning to the company problem and the kid, Barry Allen, showing up after the centrifuge was stolen. Oliver walked into the living room, where Moira, his mother, was staring at a small photo frame. He'd just helped Evelyn get to bed for her afternoon nap. She still wasn't sleeping well.
'Hi,' he said. His mother looked up. 'I'm sorry about what happened at the office this morning.'
'There are a lot of people who think I got away with murder, Oliver,' she replied, placing the photo back on the table behind the couch. 'Maybe I did.'
'Mom, the trial, the Undertaking, Malcolm Merlyn, all of that is behind us now. And we need everyone to see that.'
'How are we going to do that?'
'We throw a party.' Just then Thea walked in, her boyfriend Roy Harper with her.
'Thea,' Moira greeted. 'Roy.'
'Did I hear you guys say something about a party?' Thea quizzed, a small smile on her face.
'A welcome back to Queen Consolidated party for Mom,' Oliver explained.
'I don't think so,' Moira replied.
'If things are going to get back to normal, then we need to start acting normal.'
'Normal for us is a lavish party,' Thea spoke up. 'Wait... shouldn't Evelyn be in on this?' Thea asked.
'She's sleeping. Afternoon nap,' Oliver supplied. She nodded, making a face of understanding. Roy looked at his phone, then back up at the small family group.
'Oh, I'm sorry. Mrs. Queen, I can't stay for brunch,' he said.
'I guess we've got to go,' Thea said, walking towards her mother and got a kiss on the cheek from her mother, saying softly, 'Bye.' The two walked away, leaving Oliver and Moira alone once again in the room.
'I'll take care of everything,' Oliver said with a soft smile, then left the room.
In the Applied Sciences Center...
'What exactly are you looking for?' Felicity asked Barry. He walked over to the remains of the torn-out centrifuge and moved over to where there was a footprint outlined from the UV lights that were stationed all around. He bent down and looked at the footprint.
'Your thief's shoes touched the ground, which means he tracked in dozens of clues as to where he's been the past few days.' He picked a particle up with a pair of tweezers. 'Got ya.' He brought the particle over to the table where Felicity was working at and slid the particle into a small examiner tray, where it slid into a machine. 'Shouldn't take long.' The computer beeped as the sample was being analysed. She turned and came face to face with Barry.
'So you've seen them, right? The vigilantes. I read that they saved you. What were they like?'
'Green and red.'
