Oliver woke up very early that morning, and the first thing he did was to call his son to be wife, knowing that she would be awake. He was at a hotel, by insistence of Thea, and Donna that said to them that it was bad luck to sleep on the same bed the night before the wedding.
“good morning” he said when she picked up
“I don’t know about you hon, by my morning is not so good” she mumbled
“well, for starters I had to sleep in this big bed alone, and I really don’t like it” Oliver chuckled
“I know baby, I wish I was with you, but my sister and your mother can be pretty stubborn”
“yeah I know” she pouted “ I still missed you”
“I missed you too baby, this hotel bed isn’t as comfortable as ours, but don’t worry, I’ll make it up to you”
“Oh I’m not worried about that” Oliver smiled, she paused for a second before she asked “are you going to the cemetery before verdant?” this question baffled Oliver, he was going to go, but he didn’t know how Felicity would know, he hadn’t talked to her about that
“how do you know?” he asked, still confused
“well, I was intrigued by the day you chose for our wedding so I did a little digging, it’s Tommy’s birthday” Oliver smiled, of course Felicity would notice
“why would I be mad? It’s a beautiful way to honor him”
“Call me if you need me, I don’t care what anyone says ok?”
“Love you too” she disconnected the call and with a smile Oliver dressed himself with jeans and a Henley, he would come back to get his suit on.
“Hey Tommy, happy birthday man” he said, standing in front of his best friend grave “I’m sorry, I know I haven’t visited you as I should but this is too hard most days…I miss you so much man, even more in a day like this,” he felt to his knees “I’m getting married Tommy, for real. My friend Diggle is my best man, and he’s like a brother to me, but I still wish you were here to take his place, to make an inappropriate comment on you speech or laughed at me and tell me that I’m whipped.” You would love Felicity, she is smart and sassy and beautiful, and she would’ve loved you, I’m pretty sure you would have team up against me” he chuckled “she made me better, she makes me so happy. Oliver had started crying, but he didn’t mind his tears, he kept talking “and you know? I have a daughter. Hope, she is 10 months old, and she is beautiful, you would’ve been her uncle Tommy. I’m sorry Tommy, I’m so sorry, I can’t bring you back, but I promise you, that I will try to live my life at the fullest, just like you would’ve had if you were here.”
Oliver cleaned his tears and stood up from the floor, with a last look at the grave went back to the hotel to get prepped, it was his wedding day.
