Felicity woke up alone and jerked up into a sitting position pulling the sheet up with her. She looked around but didn't spot Sara so she walked to her bedroom door and grabbed her robe. Wrapping it around herself as she walked into her living room where she spotted Sara standing at her window just staring out into the night wearing only her tank top and underwear. Felicity approached softly and whispered Sara's name. Sara hummed in acknowledgement and Felicity stepped behind her, wrapping her arms around Sara's waist and kissing her bare shoulder. Sara relaxed into Felicity turning her head and kissing Felicity on the forehead.

"You okay? I woke up and honestly I thought you had left. Not that I'm trying to be all clingy just worried."

Sara chuckled, "I'm good, I just woke up and couldn't stay still. I didn't want to wake you so I came out here."

"What were you thinking about?"

Sara turned towards Felicity wrapping her arms around her, "I was thinking that I feel happy. It's a weird feeling but I'm adjusting to it. I was thinking that maybe we should come out and tell everyone because I want to be able to explore this with you. I don't want to hide anymore."

Felicity smiled and kissed Sara gently, "I think I like that idea. Perhaps Sunday dinner?"

"Perhaps, I think most of them already know they're just waiting for confirmation to figure out who wins the bet."

Felicity chuckled, "Of course there's a bet. I bet it was Tommy's idea. He would bet on the color socks someone is going to wear tomorrow."

Sara sighed and pulled Felicity closer, "Come on lets go back to bed. You need your sleep."

Felicity smiled and snuggled into Sara once they were back in her bed. She fell asleep to feel of Sara tracing patterns on her back.

Sara was nervous. It was Sunday and everyone was there except Felicity. Normally Sara and Felicity arrived together but today Felicity had a lunch date with a friend and so Sara had come home early and hung out with Thea and her Mother for a bit before hiding in her room for two hours. Now here it was five o'clock and Sara was literally pacing the entryway. She had texted Felicity a few minutes prior and hadn't heard anything back from her so Sara assumed she was driving. Felicity refused to even look at her phone when she was driving.

Thea came around the corner and watched Sara for a minute, "You know Mom is going to kill you if you wear out that section of the entryway."

Sara paused and glared at her sister who just shrugged and said, "By the way you left your phone in the sitting room. Felicity called said she was running late, something about getting caught up at lunch at it running over. She said to tell you to stop panicking and she'll be here in fifteen, she's leaving now."

Sara let out a breathe she didn't realize she was holding and grabbed her phone out of Thea's hand, "Thanks for the message sis, you could have just brought me the phone."

Thea smirked, "Yea I could have but then everyone would have known I had answered your phone and I wouldn't have this chance to corner you."

Sara quirked her head to the side, "Why do I feel like I should be worried?"

Thea crossed her arms, "Because no one wants to be on the receiving end of my interrogations. So tell me big sis when you going to tell everybody you and Felicity are together?

Sara just stood there staring at Thea before Thea finally sighed and continued, "Look I don't care, well that's a lie I do care I'm just torn. Like I want to threaten you that if you hurt her I'll hurt you but then I feel horrible because you're my sister and I should be threatening her. But come on its Felicity she couldn't hurt a fly. Also Oliver is extremely over protective of her so I'm sure he's going through the same dilemma because you two suck at discreet."

Sara moved forward and wrapped Thea in a hug to silence her, "Thea you can threaten me, its okay. We both know that between Felicity and I, I would be the one most likely to break her heart. You two are so close it doesn't surprise me or bother me at all okay?"

Thea nodded and mumbled into Sara's shoulder, "When did you get so understanding?"

Sara smiled, "I didn't I just learned its best not to argue with the youngest Queen, something she has an attitude."

Thea pulled away grinning, "Damn right she does. Now back to the original question, when you two going to tell everybody?"

Sara sighed, of course Thea would get stuck there. "Well it was supposed to be tonight but since she is running late I'm not sure what she will want to do. We were supposed to kind of talk about it first and hash out all the details but we never really got around to it and now I think we're just kind of going in blind and hoping everyone just kind of rolls with it honestly."

Thea laughed, "This is going to be priceless, give me a clue when its about to start I want to video everyone's reaction."

Sara stuck her tongue out at Thea but Thea just kept laughing as she walked back towards the dining room and turned right before entering, "I'll tell mom we're waiting on Felicity but I'm not explaining why you're the one doing waiting." With that she slipped around the corner and out of sight.

Sara resumed her pacing until she heard the sound of gravel crunching under tires and she opened the door and stepped out to greet Felicity. Felicity parked and opened her door to be greeted by Sara pacing beside it. "Thea knows and she said the rest assume. Oh God they're going to kill me."

Felicity laughed and put her hands on Sara's shoulders, looking her in the eyes, "Sara, everything is going to be fine. If they already assume then they won't be as shocked. Besides you said yourself there's a bet going let's see who won."

Sara hugged Felicity, "I knew you would have an answer."

They walked into the house together and Sara hung Felicity's coat while she greeted everyone. Once dinner was served and everyone was chit chatting waiting on dessert Felicity grabbed Sara's hand and squeezed it. This was it this was the moment so Sara looked at Thea and nodded. Thea grinned and pulled out her phone as Sara cleared her throat. Everyone paused and turned to her. Suddenly Sara wasn't sure she could do this.

Finally Oliver asked, "Did you want to say something Sara or where you just clearing your throat loudly for no reason?"

Sara opened her mouth but no words would come out. She turned to Felicity who just smiled and pulled their hands out from under the table saying, "Alright so who wins the bet?"

Everyone was silent for a moment except Thea who snickered as she filmed it all. Finally Tommy busted out laughing and said, "I do believe that no one wins. The first date was like a month from now."

After Tommy everyone else broke into talking at once and asking questions. Finally Felicity held up her hand, "Enough, we're dating, its new. Yes we know its fast, yes I'm being careful and I understand Sara has things to work through. No we will not reconsider and wait a little longer and no Oliver you may not go grumpy growl face on your sister or me so stop trying to figure out which one to do it to."

Oliver was pouting but Moira smiled at them, "I'm glad you have both talked about everything. I am concerned but if you two know what you are doing then I believe you'll be just fine."

Walter agreed and Tommy just tipped his glass towards them. Oliver finally came around saying, "I'm happy for you both. Worried but happy."

Sara stood from her seat and wrapped her arms around Oliver, "You big brother have always been worried. You're going to go gray if you're not careful. I remember you used to follow me on all my dates in high school. I wonder if you did the same to Thea?"

Thea smirked, "Oh he tried, right up until I started threatening to follow him on all of his. Suddenly he wasn't so interested anymore."

Everyone laughed at that. Sara went back to her seat ruffling Thea's hair along the way. Thea smacked her hand away and everyone started talking amongst themselves again. When Sara sat down Felicity was beaming at her. Sara took Felicity's hand and kissed her cheek before winking and joining Thea in picking on Oliver and Tommy.

Felicity just sat there for a moment taking it all in. She had nothing before she met Oliver and now it was like he had come into her life so that she could experience family and true friendship and love.

I don't want this to be the last chapter but it feels like the last chapter. Either way I'm starting a new story soon. Sorry this one was so short but I like where it ended. The rest can kind of be filled in by the imagination or maybe one day I'll come back to it but for now its finished. Wish me luck on the next story and may all of you have wonderful days.
