BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!!!!!!

I guess it's time to go job hunting. I get up, find a cute fancy yet casual outfit. I head to the bathroom. Do my business and my hair. I look pretty good. Or at least I think I do.

I grab my keys and get in the car. I drive to town and go into several places. I am probably gonna regret this but this place pays good. I walk into Queen Consolidated. I really hope he's not here. I know he runs this place but I have heard that he isn't very good at showing up. I walk in and see a small blonde head pop out from behind the computer.

"Hey, how can I help? She asks in a soft voice.

" Hey I wanted to know how I can get a job here. I am new to the city but I have heard good and bad things about this place. Mostly good though. Sorry I ramble when i'm nervous. As you can tell i'm nervous. I will shut up so you can help me. Oh and i'm lexi." I end with a side smile.

"Well I am Felicity. I would need your resume and a picture of your license. Then I will give it to my boss and he will decide if you get a job here. But maybe I can put in a good word." She says with a slight perk.

"That would be great and here you go. Hey maybe you could make a new friend. I am a little lost in this city. Who knew a city could be so big?" I end hoping that she will say yes.

"I would love to show you around or we could go meet somewhere." She replied unsure of what we would do.

"That would be great." I say with some excitement in my voice.

"Meet you at Big Belly Burger at 7. Don't judge the name they have really good food. Plan?" She looks at her computer and starts typing again while she waits for a response.

"Plan, well thank you for everything and see you later."

  I walk to the elevator and press the button and wait. It opens and who do I see? Great it's Oliver.

"I didn't expect to see you here. I didn't know how you were going to get your phone but here you go." He says as he fishes his hand into his pocket for my phone. He finds it and held it out.

"Thanks and I should get going, I got places to be." I start to walk into the elevator. He grabs my arm.

"Can we talk for a minute?" He said it more of a command than question.

"Look Oliver I don't know what happen yesterday and the day before. But look Oliver that can't happen again. I am new I want a good start. Does that mean we are going to bump into each other. Yes. But does that mean we have to be friends, no it doesn't."

"Look Lexi I hope you are lying because I am not gonna give up on you. The last two days have been really fun for me and I bet this is easy for you." Oliver says in a gruff voice.

'Oliver look they days were fun but ....I....I can't do this. I left because I don't know what you wanted. I don't know if you wanted more than friends or if you wanted friend with benefits. But Oliver you can not say that this isn't hard for me. Last night I couldn't get you out of my head. Do you to want more? Oliver I don't know what I want I am leaving and there is nothing you can do about it." I start to walk away as the doors open. Oliver grabs my arm and pulls me in for a kiss.

"No, Oliver I am not play that game!' I yank my arm out of his hand. Look at him and turn around and leave. The last thing I hear is an anger grunt for oliver.

  I get to my car and I punch the wheel several times out of anger. But hey I did stand up to Oliver so at least I have some pride.

I end the job hunt early and go home and make a fancy drink the non alcoholic type that is. I sit down on the couch and start watching Supernatural. I watch a couple episodes and see that it's 6:30. Well time to go. I grab my purse, phone, keys and start to head out.

  I see Felicity and head over to the table.

"Hey."

"Hey you actually came." She said a little surprised.

"Yeh I did and i'm gonna go order somethings. Want anything?"

"No i already put my order in, just wating."

A couple minutes later we each have our food. We each have already dug in. She was right you can't judge it by it's name. Although I don't think the name is so bad. After all there are worse named places. This place is on the list but not at the top.

"How long have you worked at Queen Consolidated? Tell me all about it. I am a good listener." I say with a little giggle.

"A years now, don't really know. It's a good job. Pays well and nice people. Oh have you met Oliver? My boss, the ceo, and  hot rich millionaire." Felicity said in a faze.

"I have not met him but I have heard that he's not the best ceo."

"You need to meet him maybe you to have a love connection." She stops and giggles.

"I doubt it lol."

We continued to talk. Felicity continued to talk about Oliver. I can't help but think maybe Oliver is clueless about her. I currently don't know what to think about him. Felicity isn't wrong. Oliver is hot and is a rich millionaire. But she doesnt my story, my past. But Oliver does. Why am I so stupid? Do I talk to Oliver? Do I make things right? I hear my phone buzz. I dig in my purse. Oliver ain't stupid, he added his number to my phone. The buzz was a text from Oliver saying Look Lexi I want to fix things. Maybe we could meet somewhere. Please Lexi. At least let me talk you can listen. You don't even have to say anything. I promise no moves, no flirt, and I won't touch you. Please meet me at Queen Consolidated tomorrow at 9:30. Hope that's not to early. See you then. -Oliver

  Do I go tomorrow? God Oliver Queen is so complicated. Is he though? Is it just me? Am I just an over thinker? I go to my bathroom and turn on the sink and wash my face. Look at myself in the mirror. I start thinking about me over thinking. Maybe I do like Oliver. Maybe I love Oliver. I think I'm  giving him a chance. I am going tomorrow but I am gonna be late. Hah Kinda like in the Grinch. When he gets invited to the party thing. Why did I even think about that? I need to sleep. I have a big day tomorrow. Goodnight to all and all a goodnight. Did I just quote someone. Hmmm I actually don't know. But know me I just did.
