Survivors (Oliver Queen x Male!Reader)

You were on the Queen's Gambit, a boat owned by the Queen family. It had surprised you when the boat suddenly lurched and you were thrown into the churning waters. You barely made it through the freezing water to a piece of flotsam.

You held on to it for your life and reached an island days later. You could have sworn it was a hallucination until you felt the sand against your toes.

You made your way shakily to the shore and collapsed on the beach, happy to have made it to land. You knew you had to find food but you were too exhausted to move.

It took you several hours until you finally forced yourself to your feet and went in search of food.

You found a cave to make temporary home. Nearby there was a stream and a wild berry bush. With this and your knowledge of camping, you survived fairly well.

Each day you explored for any sign of civilization and rescue. You never found any but you did find someone else passed out in the forest. It was Oliver.

You brought him back to your cave and fixed him up, the best you could. You started to fix yourself dinner.

"(y/n)?" You heard from behind you. He sat up and you finished cooking. You placed pieces of meat in to your broth. When it was done, you used the half shells of coconuts to serve it to Oliver.

"You were hurt pretty bad, just relax. Here's some food." He almost inhaled the soup instantly.

He ended up staying with you for a while helping you hunt and look for a way off the island. You helped each other survive.

~oOo~

You awoke quickly from your deep slumber by snapping twigs in the woods. You turned to wake Oliver but he was already sitting up and getting ready to run at a moment's notice. You did the same, quickly gathering your stuff into a bag you'd made.

You crept to the mouth of the cave and gasped as you saw militia men. You were about to get their attention, see if they could save you but you were cut off by Oliver. His hand clamped over your mouth.

"Don't. I know these men, they tortured me. I'll take care of them but you have to promise to run and not come back for me." You shook your head. He knew you wouldn't and couldn't just leave him. "Please (y/n), just run."

He exited the cave. "You looking for me?"

"Mr. Queen, I thought you might be around here." You didn't hear more because you began to run. "After him!" you hear from behind you. You didn't stop until you were far away and couldn't hear them anymore.

<I hope you're okay, Oliver.

~oOo~

You had to find another place to call home for a while. You choose a place near the beach so you could see any boats and get plenty of sea life.

It wasn't long before you did see a boat in the distance. It looked like a fishing boat so you started jumping and waving to get their attention.

It seemed as if they didn't see you but then the boat started towards you. You could finally get off of the island.

~oOo~

You never told anyone what had happened on the island. You assumed Oliver had been killed by the men. You believed yourself the only survivor.

That is until years later when Oliver showed back up. You were so overjoyed that you almost instantly sprinted out of your house and to his.

You knocked on his door and when he answered you couldn't believe it was really him. You threw your arms around his neck and squeezed him in a tight hug.

"I thought you were dead." You said. "After I lost you I thought those men had killed you."

"I never stopped thinking about you, (y/n). I never knew if you made it off the island too but it seems so."

"I was rescued a two years ago. I missed you so much." You kissed him, startling him.

He didn't pull away though, he deepened the kiss and pulled you closer.

"I'm glad you're okay Oliver."

He kissed you and pulled you into the house.

"I love you (y/n)"
