The Storm ➸ Arrow/Oliver Queen

Prisoner's Party

I DO NOT OWN ARROW

"FINALLY," I SAY to myself, collapsing onto the sofa, face first. After changing out of the horrible dress, I changed into a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie. I don't think I could handle dressing up again in such formal clothes, it's too much effort.

I roll over onto my stomach to face the television, closing my eyes to listen to the sound of people talking, when suddenly my stomach started to growl.

I groan. I don't even have the effort to get up and make something, but I also cannot ignore the feeling and thought of wanting food. When I'm hungry, there's only my own laziness stopping me from pigging out. 

After a few minutes of contemplating, I made the decision that I should probably make something too eat. I stand up to walk into the kitchen, picking up a plate from the dish cupboard and grab the loaf of bread before grabbing some ham and lettuce out of the fridge. After making the sandwich and eating it, I changed into my gym clothing.

I haven't been able to go to any of the Taekwondo practices for a while, even if I have a black belt, I like going and helping out to teach the younger members and freshen up on some of the moves. Me being the odd girl from school, I always preferred learning Taekwondo and gymnastic rather than ballet or a musical instrument. I guess these skills do come in handy. 

I start jogging slowly before speeding up, making my way towards where the Taekwondo school is usually located, warming up, ready to start letting off steam before Oliver's prison party.

.

I slowly walk through the huge crowd of people dancing, hearing the loud bass against the floor from the large speakers that were located around Oliver's garden. I have seriously been to too many parties during the past two weeks, I don't think I'll be able to handle another. I sigh, standing on my toes to see if i could see anyone over the loud noise, only seeing a large number of girls dressed in similar black and white stripped dresses and orange jump suits.

Suddenly the loud music stops with a voice calling out: "Hi, everybody." 

Looking up to see Oliver Queen standing on top of a circular stage, wearing a denim shirt with a white tag on the side of his chest. 

"Hey." Everyone cheers back. 

"I'm very touched that you came to celebrate with me before I am sent up the river." Oliver shouts, rolling my eyes I cross my arms over my chest and lean back on a white marquee, "Closest neighbours are 6 miles away, so don't worry about the noise."

Cheers were heard again, "Actually, on second thought let's wake those losers up!" Oliver shouts before the music starts to play and everyone starts dancing again. I start looking again before noticing Tommy near the bar, talking to a few girls. 

I run over to the bar, "Tommy!" My shout caused him to turn slightly to his right as I walking over to the bar. "Thank God I found you, I was by myself looking like a loner," I explain, pouting.

"Oh, I thought you would've been with Oliver." Tommy said, taking a sip of his drink.

"No, I only saw him when he was greeting everyone on stage. I lost sight of him after." I say, calling for a drink before looking back over at Tommy.

"Anyway, I see you're trying to pick up girls again... But aren't you still locked on Laurel?"

"Andrea, I've told you that it wasn't serious between us, I don't think it'll happen again." Tommy said, now fully facing me.

"I beg to differ, the way you look at her, I can tell you're definitely not over her," I say taking a sip from my drink, " Have you even told Oliver yet?"

"Do you think I could even tell Oliver that? Say 'Oh, Oliver thought I'll let you know that Laurel and I were a thing when you were marooned on an island for five years.'  Yeah, it's easy said then done."

I roll my eyes, "Tommy, you should act before it's too late, if you don't, you will regret it."

Tommy sighed, "You kno-" 

Tommy got interrupted when Detective Lance started to make everyone leave. I look over at Tommy, "I'm guessing something happened." I state.

"We should probably go inside and check on Oliver." Tommy suggested and I nodded, both making our way into the mansion and walking into the living room, seeing a distressed Oliver and Thea sitting next to each other.

"What happened? Is everything okay?" I ask walking over to the siblings.

"Not really," Oliver sighed.

"Someone tried to kill Oliver." Thea explained.

"Wait what? Are you hurt?" Tommy asked but Oliver shook his head.

"I'm fine," He said before moving his focus to Detective Lance, "How did you know I was in trouble?" he asked, while Tommy sat on the armchair and I stood behind him, watching Detective Lance walk towards Oliver 

"When the guy was fighting you, he broke the ankle monitor." Detective Lance explained.

Suddenly Moira comes into the room, rushing over to Oliver, "Are you all right?" 

"I'm fine."

"Oliver."

"Mom, I promise." Oliver reassured.

"This is on you."

"By accusing my son publicly, you've made him a target." Moira says, pointing at Detective Lance with a fierce look in her eyes.

"Do you have any idea who attacked Oliver?" Walter asks

"We haven't identified him." Detective Lance explains, causing Moira to turn around, "It must be someone with a grudge against the hood." He says squatting down to Oliver's leg with the ankle monitor on it, that was propped up onto the coffee table.

"What are you doing?" Oliver asks, eyes moving down to his leg and then back to Detective Lance.

"Just got a call from my lieutenant." Detective Lance says, removing the ankle monitor, "An arms dealer was attacked across town tonight." He stood up.

"By the vigilante." He looks over to Moira, "Multiple witnesses put him there. In light of that, all charges against your son are dropped."

"I'm truly sorry for what's happened to your family, Quentin. But would you kindly get the hell out of my house?" Moira says before Detective Lance turns to walk out.

"Mr. Lance?" Oliver calls, causing Detective Lance to look at Oliver, "Thank you."

I sigh, looking down at my shoes before looking over at Oliver. He seems too calm after just being told that he's not even going to prison after everything that's happened.

Wow, this is terrible and rushed...  -.-
