They made it back to the Watchtower in no time and once they made sure Mia and Michael weren't going anywhere, they made their way to their floor, where Lois took the guest room Mia had been sleeping in when she was little and Chloe and Oliver made their way to their own room

His chest tightened at her words and he watched as she sat down on the edge of their bed. He slowly moved over to her side, swallowing hard. "I've missed you," he whispered, kneeling down in front of her and gently untying the shoes that were now on her feet.

"I missed you too," she whispered quietly, her chest clenching as she reached down to run her fingers through his hair, "you don't have to do that, Ollie, I need to take a shower."

He closed his eyes at the light touch and he carefully slipped one shoe off her foot, and then the other, pushing them beneath their bed. He blew out a breath, resting his head against her knees for a moment. "You're not hurt anywhere else, right?" He'd asked her already, more than once. But he couldn't stop himself from asking again.

[chloeas]

"No," she whispered, running her fingers through his hair as she pushed her lips together, she knew he was holding back, holding in whatever it was he really wanted to say, but she didn't want to push him.

"I know," she told him quietly, trying for a smile, "I know."

Oliver let out a breath and pulled away to look at her. "Come on," he whispered, shifting slightly and moving to stand up.

She looked up at him for a moment then took a deep breath and pushed herself up, taking his hand in hers for support so she wouldn't put too much weight on her feet, "shower?" She asked quietly, she couldn't wait to get rid of the blue uniform, but she also didn't want to be away from him.

Oliver nodded slightly, then slid his arms beneath her knees, picking her up and suppressing a wince as the move pulled against his still-healing ribs. He kissed her cheek softly, carrying her toward their bathroom.
