Oliver's POV
I hear sobbing coming from the bathroom. Getting up I follow the sound, finding Felicity on the floor.

"What's wrong...?" I sit down next to her, pulling her in my arms tightly.

"Ray... He's gonna kill all of us..."

"Felicity, I'm not going to let him near you, or Thea, or your mother. I've told you this..."

"That's not it..." She chokes out, tears rolling down her cheeks. I quickly wipe them away. Pressing my lips to her forehead, I try to comfort her.

"Then what's wrong...?" She purses her lips, before pulling something from her pocket. My eyes go wide as I realize what it is.

"Are you sure?"

"Are you mad?" A smile spreads across my lips at the thought. Felicity, the woman I love, was going to be the mother of my child.

"I could never be mad at you."

"But I'm pregnant, and there's already everything going on with Ray and-"

"Everything is going to be okay. I promise." I cup her cheeks, pulling her lips to mine. Afterwards she rests her head on my shoulder.

"Let's get back to bed, then we can worry about this tomorrow."

"Thank you." For the rest of the night, I lay awake, a smile spread across my face. I'm going to be a father, and I'm going to have a family again.

I haven't spoken with my mother, or Thea in six months. It didn't matter though, Felicity was all I needed. She was the person I cared about most, and now I had my child.

As the sun begins to rise, I get out of bed. As I get dressed, I feel a pair of eyes on my body.

"Morning."

"Since when does Oliver Queen wake up before ten?" I walk over to Felicity, pecking her on the lips.

"Since I have so much to look forward to."

"Are you really that excited?" A blush begins to rise on her cheeks.

"Of course. We're going to have a baby! How can you not be excited?"

"It just makes me think about..." She looks down, avoiding my gaze.

"Felicity, I won't let anything happen to you or the baby."

"I love you Oliver."

"I love you... Now time to get up." I pull her out of the bed, leaving her alone to change. Twenty minutes later she wraps her arms around my torso as I make breakfast.

"What's on the menu today?"

"I was thinking cereal." I hand her a bowl, and she takes it to the table.

"What should we do today?"

"Well I made an appointment to meet with an OBGYN."

"For the baby?"

"Yep.  After what happened last time, I want to make sure it won't effect this time..." I take her hand in mine.

"Everything will be okay. I can feel it."

"And your gut feeling is so trustworthy?" She smirks, a smile growing on her face.

"Very. Or else we wouldn't be here right now."

"Well we wouldn't be here right now if I knew any better, but lucky for you I didn't." She pecks me cheek before glancing at her phone.

"We're going to be late!"
