If she knew...

Chapter 9

Felicity’s POV

I was still surrounded by cold darkness and I was feeling extremely numb. I couldn’t remember the last time I had felt warmth. I was slowly started to drift away I was pulled away by an urge to stop fighting and I was feeling the urge to just let them, let it take me away and I slowly drift into something blissful. I started feeling warmth again and that is when I feel a sharp pain and hear people yelling. Was this death?

 One voice stood out from all the rest. “FELICITY! NO! OH GOD NO! PLEASE DON’T LEAVE ME!” it was Oliver.

That’s when I started feeling cold again I fought to feel the coldness and I was losing this battle than he said the words I needed him to say.

“Felicity, you can’t die. I honored the dead by fighting. I wasn’t done fighting and you aren’t done! FE-LI-CI-TY you are not done fighting! I asked you to join my crusade because I thought I could protect you but I failed you but you’re stronger than I am. You can make it!” he pleaded.

I started to struggle harder and I freed myself from death’s grasp and I was back in coldness and I slowly felt warmth, but this time it was…different. It started with my hand and it slowly spread to my body and I knew he was holding my hand in his. I felt a tear slip down my cheek. I was fighting not only for me but for him too, for our whole team. I had no idea how long it had been since I was in this cold hours, days, weeks? I had no idea it felt like forever. Every time he was here I felt warm the cold was gone and a pleasant warm would envelop my body and shield it from the cold, until he was gone again. I really hoped that he would not give up on me. I was hoping it wouldn’t turn like that one song by A Great Big world Say Something because I wouldn’t be able to say anything. I was slowly lost in my thoughts when his voice brought me back.

“Felicity Barry came by earlier, along with Laurel and Cisco, Catlin, Thea, Roy, even Walter came by.” He said all the people that cared about me didn’t give up on me they cared. I didn’t even know Thea that well and yet she came to visit me. I couldn’t let all of them down and I wasn’t going to let Death take me not from them and definitely not from him. I slowly felt his hand move to my face and he ran his thumb along my cheek as if wiping a tear away. Did it slip down my cheek? I wasn’t sure but I knew one thing I wasn’t done fighting.
