"Felicity," Oliver paused pinching the bridge of his nose in a vain attempt to control his temper, "if I have the opportunity to save someone's life why wouldn't I take it?"

"Because you could lose yours!" Felicity yelled back frustrated with her boyfriend's careless antics. "You may not care about your life, you may not think it's worth something but I do!"

"You're missing it Felicity! I'm not on a suicide mission, I'm not trying to get myself killed. but if it happens it happens, I'm not going to let someone else die just because you're here waiting for me to get back." Oliver's face was turning red now and without really meaning to he thought of you.

You understood the dangers that came with his
work and you weren't constantly breathing down his neck about it. Come to think of it he couldn't really remember why the two of you had broken up, you were good for each other. You always had been, until you left the city... he remembered now.

He remembered how he yelled at you when you were feeling out of place, how he told you that you didn't belong on his team because you had powers. The next day he woke up and you were gone. You'd left him a note telling him that he was right and that you'd go somewhere where you did belong, Central City.

"So you're saying that me waiting here worried sick about you isn't enough?" Felicity's yelling brought him out of his trance and he rolled his eyes.

"It's not like you're out there with me Felicity! Y/N was. She understood the drive to want to do as much good as you could not bothering to think about yourself."

"Is that why she left."

The words hit Oliver like a kick to the jaw, even though you and him had broken up a while ago, he was still sensitive about the way he left things and that was a really low blow.

Oliver scoffed and backed away from his girlfriend, turning around and walking towards the exit of the arrow cave with his packed duffle bag slung over his shoulder.

"I'm going to help Barry whether you like it or not. He's my friend, he's in danger. I'm going."

"You're just like her, Oliver, running from your problems," Felicity called after him as he entered the elevator.

Oliver whirled around at the mention of you and squinted his eyes at the girl, "I'm taking John and Rene, we'll be back next week."

Felicity glared at Oliver with her arms crossed over her chest, "I don't think this is working out."

"Me either."

Not more than a day after Oliver's fight with Felicity he was standing in STAR labs surrounded by all of Team Flash, even their newest member, you. You stood next to Barry fully dressed in your navy blue leather suit that was almost identical to Barry's except yours had a DNA pendant instead of a lightning bolt.

Oliver's eyes never left you as you briefed your ex team on the threat you were facing today.

"They touched down on the port, Barry and I were the first ones there, since we were chasing zoom," you explained as Cisco brought up the location on the computer screen for everyone to see.
