"There is no way Barry is taking me to the hospital" Felicity objected for the tenth time as Oliver reluctantly helped her into the front seat of the short black limo.

"So you would honestly rather take the limo" Oliver said defeated "Barry could have you there in 10 seconds".

"I don't blame her man" Diggle said amused, walking towards the driver's seat "That method of travel is not for the weak stomached...or those in labour".

Felicity nodded, settling herself into the seat breathing deeply.

"You're driving" Oliver asked with a smirk.

"The others are taking care of clean up. I figured I was needed over here, especially since the way your holding your side right now Oliver makes me think you have at least one broken rib. Also we both know I'm the better driver" Diggle said as he started the car.

Oliver looked down at his arm, clutched around his side and winced. He already knew he had a broken rib, he had taken a bit of a beating in Wilson's mansion but it had been worth it. Felicity was safe.

"Fine" Oliver grumbled sitting in the middle of the car so he had a good view of Felicity.

Felicity looked back at him nervously, beads of sweat were already appearing on her forehead. Oliver reached out and grabbed her outstretched hand and kiss her quickly.

"Wait" They all heard from behind the limo.

The back door opened and an out of breath Thea came tumbling into the car beside Oliver.

"I can't believe you were about to leave without me. There is no way I'm missing the birth of my first nephew" Thea said exasperated.

Felicity let go of Oliver's hand and grabbed her stomach moaning in pain.

"What's wrong" everyone said at once, Oliver looking especially concerned.

"Have you all forgotten I'm in freaking labour? It's a contraction, I think, I don't know I'm new at this all I know is that it really...REALLY hurts" She said letting out a breath she had been holding in. "Can you please just drive the freaking car" she said through gritted teeth, looking at Diggle desperately.

Diggle nodded and started driving, fast.

"Keep breathing honey. Remember those classes we went to" Oliver said, trying to be soothing.

Felicity had her seat leaned back and Oliver was massaging her shoulders.

"I remember the classes. They failed to mention what to do if you go into labor after being kidnapped by a psychopath and your absentee father. Remind me to write them a strongly worded email about that" Felicity muttered. She reached down and gripped the seats as another contraction hit her, screaming uncomfortably.

"We're almost there baby" Diggle said calmly.

Thea sank back in her chair, looking a little disturbed. "I'm seriously considering talking to Roy about adopting now" Thea said.

Oliver shot her a look. "Not helping Thea" He said quietly.

The car pulled up in the hospital and Oliver quickly reached for the door.

"Wait" Felicity practically scream. She let out a long breath. "I can't believe I'm the one in labor and still the only one thinking rationally" She sighed "Oliver, you can't come in with me".

"Why" Oliver said shocked and slightly hurt.

"Look what your wearing" Felicity said.

Oliver looked at himself, seeing his all green leather gear. He looked over at Thea, wearing her red suit.

"Right" Oliver nodded then he shook his head "I don't care, there's no way I'm letting you go in there alone".

Felicity laughed sarcastically. "There's no way I'm letting the Green Arrow escort me into the hospital with the rumors that have been going around about me and him" she smiled slightly and turned around in her seat to look at Oliver. "Diggle will get me checked in, his suit is pretty inconspicuous. I happen to know for a fact you don't wear anything under that suit" Felicity said pointing at the suit with a flirty smirk.

"Gross" Thea said as she fake gagged.

"Then Diggle can grab you guys some hospital scrubs" Felicity said, proud of her plan.

Diggle nodded and walked around the car, opening Felicity's door.

"I'll see you soon then" Oliver said, holding her face gently and kissing her resting his forehead on hers. He noticed her face was much hotter than it normally was.

"Now I don't want to leave" Felicity said quietly with scared eyes.

"You'll do great and I'll be there in a couple minutes, even if I have to go completely naked" Oliver smiled.

"I won't complain" Felicity laughed, kissing him again "Don't take too long Oliver Queen. This baby isn't going to wait forever. I love you".

"I love you too" He said, watching her as she walked into the emergency room entrance.

Once she was out of sight, Oliver opened the car door and hopped out.

"Where are you going" Thea called after him.

"I'm going to go break into the hospital and steal some scrubs" Oliver shouted.

Thea got up and followed him.

After an awkward encounter with a hospital intern in the supply closet, Oliver and Thea found scrubs to change into.

Oliver then rushed into the maternity ward, finding Felicity's room just in time to witness the birth of his son.

Afterwards, Felicity was lying in the hospital bed looking exhausted. Her face was flushed and her hair was messy but Oliver still thought she looked beautiful especially because she was wearing the biggest smile he had ever seen on her face. Oliver couldn't help it either, his face hurt from smiling so much. He was lying in the hospital bed beside her and they were both entranced by the little bundle she held in her arms.

"He's got your blue eyes" Felicity said, not taking her eyes off of the baby, who was starting to fall asleep "His face is so squishy".

Oliver reached over and touched the baby's cheek. "I think he gets that from you" Oliver teased.

Felicity turned her head to look at him, narrowing her eyes.

Oliver took the opportunity to kiss her deeply. "Your beautiful" He whispered to her "He's beautiful".

Felicity yawned and the baby mirrored her.

Oliver laughed. "Uh oh. I knew this would happen" Oliver said happily "He's already copying you. I knew I was going to be outnumbered".

Felicity hummed "I'm the better example anyways".

"Oh really" Oliver smiled.

"Mr and Mrs Queen" A nurse said, knocking quietly on the door. She stepped in the room with a portable computer and sat down at the chair beside the bed.

"How's everyone doing in here" The nurse asked.

"Great. He already ate and now he's fallen asleep. Obviously he isn't too creeped out by how much we're staring at him" Felicity beamed. She placed a kiss on her son's head as he stirred slightly.

"Wonderful" the nurse said, typing some notes into the chart "Just a couple more question and your able to go home if you like, unless you would like to stay. I heard you had quite the journey getting here, with your husband working late and your car breaking down on the way here". The nurse turned to Oliver "And you Mr. Queen, how unfortunate that your suit was ruined by that taxi cab. I swear sometimes people in this city have no respect".

Felicity looked over at Oliver and smiled sheepishly. She had made up a ridiculous story about why she looked had so dishevelled and why Oliver showed up looking frantic in scrubs.

Oliver coughed to hold back his laughter. "Well, things DEFINATELY did not go the way we expected them too. So honey, do you want to stay or go home".

Felicity leaned her head back on the pillow to look over at Oliver "As tired as I am, I would really like to go home".

Oliver nodded, texting Diggle to ask if the penthouse was cleaned up and safe.

"Have you decided what name you would like on the birth certificate" the nurse asked.

Oliver looked at Felicity and nodded "His name is Thomas John Queen".

The nurse smiled, standing up to leave "What a beautiful name. I'll get the paper work ready for you".

Oliver looked at his son, he was perfect. Although Oliver knew that every parent probably thought their child was the most beautiful thing in the world, he couldn't help it. Tommy was the result of all the love between Felicity and him, how could he not be the most beautiful thing in the world. Even if Oliver tried to be objective, which he wasn't, he was sure that their baby could be in commercials. Tommy had bright blue eyes, a tiny nose and the beginnings of dark blonde hair coming from his head. Oliver was in disbelief because he never thought he could be happier. After Felicity and him had gotten together he had been but now, his life was truly complete.

"Earth to Oliver" Felicity said softly, turning her head into his view. She smiled at him "Wow, you're really in love aren't you".

Oliver leaned in and kissed Tommy's head, then turned to kiss his wife. "Yes" he said simply, his lips parting from hers.

"Me too" Felicity said tenderly. She shifted in the bed slightly "Now here, you hold Tommy while I get changed into the amazingly not bathrobe type clothes Thea brought me".

Oliver slid out of the bed and held his arms out hesitantly. He realized this would be the first time he would be holding his son on his own and was suddenly terrified he would drop him.

"Honey, you can shoot arrows at people upside down and have the reflexes of a ninja cat. You'll be just fine" Felicity said reassuring him.

Oliver chuckled "A ninja cat, huh".

Felicity nodded "Uh huh". She carefully shifted Tommy into Oliver's arms "But if he wakes up it's your fault".

Oliver stood up, walking with Tommy over to the window of the hospital while Felicity got changed.

Oliver looked down at his son, who was making funny faces in his sleep. Oliver thought it was amazing, he wondered if he would ever stop finding everything Tommy did amazing. He doubted it and that was fine with him.

"Your remarkable" Oliver whispered to him "Just like your Mom".

Felicity heard him from across the room and smiled to herself. "Just like his Dad" she added quietly.

3 months later...

It was time for the annual charity gala again. The past three months had gone by without very many incidents in the city. Ethan Smoak and Joe Wilson were securely locked in an A.R.G.U.S prison along with all of their mercenaries. Felicity made peace with what her Father was, although it had been difficult breaking the news to her mother they were both stronger for it. Both Donna and Felicity had moved on from Ethan a long time ago.

"Honey" Felicity called from inside the walk in closet. She was standing in front of the mirror.

Oliver walked in tying his bow tie and stared appraisingly at her. Felicity was wearing a long black dress with a low neckline that was tight around her body, her hair was down but brushed to the side because the back of her dress was still undone.

"Zip me up" Felicity said looking back at him.

Oliver approached her slowly and slide his hands around her waist, burrowing his face into her neck.

"Nope" he said huskily, kissing the side of her neck "I would much rather take it off".

Felicity rolled her eyes playfully and ran her nailed through his hair with her hand. "Oliver, I feel like we haven't been out of the house for months. For once I'm actually looking forward to one of these things. Plus you know how sexy I think it is when you actually act like a CEO and schmooze the crowd with your charm".

"I am very charming" Oliver said sliding one of his hands through the zipper area to touch her back.

He smiled when Felicity arched her back slightly in approval as he ran his hand lightly up and down her lower back.

"What about the baby" Felicity said, her eyes darkening slightly as she looked at him through the mirror.

"Baby is sleeping. I was just in with him" Oliver said, caressing her ear with his lips.

Felicity let out a frustrated moan and quickly turned around to face him. "Screw it" she said pulling his shirt out of his dress pants and deftly unbuttoning it as she kissed him "But don't you dare mess up my hair Oliver Queen".

"Your late again" Thea said crossing her arms and smirking as Oliver walked into the ballroom. Roy was standing beside her, holding her purse and looking kind of awkward as usual.

Oliver pulled her in for a hug "Well I have to keep up appearances Speedy. It would be suspicious if I actually showed up on time".

"Where's Felicity" Thea asked.

"Here" Felicity said walking towards them from behind Thea. She was holding Tommy in her arms. Tommy was wearing a baby sized tuxedo, which had been given to them as a gift from Thea. Felicity rocked Tommy slightly. "He puked a little and I had to make sure I didn't have any baby vomit on my dress" She said nonchalantly.

Roy laughed. "You brought the baby to a charity gala" he asked.

Both Thea and Oliver looked over at him pointedly.

"Yes Roy" Oliver said sternly "What's wrong with that".

"It's sort of a rite of passage in the Queen family. Baby's first tuxedo. Baby's first gala. Baby's first stint in rehab" Thea said jokily.

Both Oliver and Felicity shot her a disapproving look.

"Relax. My nephew is perfect and way smarter than his aunt. Plus if he ever misbehaves we can show up in costume and scare him into behaving" Thea said in a baby voice, playing with Tommy's hands.

"He looks even better than you in a tuxedo" Diggle said approaching them with Lyla and Sara behind him.

Sara ran up to Oliver and practically jumped into his arms.

"Hey baby girl" Oliver said smiling at her as she hugged him tightly "Don't you look pretty".

Oliver brought Sara over so she could see Tommy.

"He's so cute" Sara cooed, poking his cheek gently.

Oliver put Sara down and she ran over to her parents "Daddy, I want a baby brother like Tommy".

Lyla and Diggle laughed.

At the end of the night, Oliver was sitting in the limo on the way home smiling. Felicity had fallen asleep on Oliver's shoulder but Tommy was fully awake and looking up at Oliver with his bright blue eyes. Oliver touched Tommy's face and the baby responded with a smile.

"One day I'll tell you all about this" Oliver said to Tommy "I'll tell you about the Island. The first time I met your mother. I'll tell you about how she changed my life, about all the times I almost lost her. You'll know then, like I do now that it has all been remarkable. Every minute of it and I wouldn't change a thing".

Tommy smiled and Oliver was happy.
