Chapter Text
Prologue:
‘Hi, my name is Oliver Queen’
The day the superhot billionaire playboy walked into Felicity Smoak’s office, she knew her life had changed forever. How did she know? Because she had experienced the exact same thing three times before in her young, 25-year life.
One of those times, was when she got into MIT. Before that, everything else had been pretty average, or as average as a computer genius’ life could possibly get. She had changed a lot about herself after the acceptance letter. She learned to be brave; she learned to stand up for herself. And she most importantly, dyed her hair blonde. That was the major change in her life because it meant she was cutting off all ties to a family that never treated her right in the first place.
The other two times, she never did like to go into, mostly because she kept a lot of secrets. That was how she understood Oliver’s need to be the vigilante. She understood the need to keep secrets so that you could keep those you loved safe. There was also the fact that she thought Oliver was really hot. That helped him, a little bit.
So she became a part of the team. An important part of a pseudo-family that needed her as much as she needed them.
There’s a problem with keeping secrets though. No matter how much you try to hide things from people, all they need to do is get close enough to find out. And then, you’re in trouble. A lot of trouble.
