Mission: Ruin Lex Luthor. With chloeas

[olliequeen]

Oliver hadn't been home from the Metropolis office of Q.I. for a full hour before the sun began to descend, which meant it was time to put his plan into action. Feeling confident as he drank down the last of his coffee, he made his way to his secret room and changed into his Green Arrow uniform. He checked over his supplies, and satisfied he had everything he needed, he stepped out of the room, ready to call out and let Chloe know that he was going out for patrol.

Which was mostly the truth.

Except Chloe was standing right in front of him, her arms folded across her chest.

And he had the distinct feeling he wasn't going to be leaving quite as soon as he thought.

Oliver turned, as well, watching the night sky light up in flames. He lifted his chin a little, faint smirk on his face. That should successfully distract Lex for awhile. Until they were ready to make another hit against him, anyway.

Chloe took a deep breath and glanced at Oliver then grinned a little, "Well, I know what everyone will be talking about at work tomorrow."

He flashed her a grin. "Naturally." He pulled his glasses off and hooked them onto his belt for the time being. "So what do you think?"

With a raise of her eyebrows, she turned her face to look at him, "about?"

He gave her a look then motioned toward what was left of the building. "Going out on a mission."

Chloe shrugged a little then smirked, "I think I need something a lot more exciting than this to be able to judge."

He frowned a little at that. "Like what? Some guards chasing us on the motorcycle shooting at us?" he grumbled, moving over to his bike.

She squinted, watching him, confused by his reaction, "that's what usually happens, isn't it?"

"Fortunately not," he said wryly, turning to give her a look. "Is that what you thought?"

[chloeas.livejournal.com]

"I know exactly what happens on missions, Oliver" She frowned a little and shrugged, "what's wrong with you?"

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

"Nothing," he said with a slight shrug, not meeting her eyes as he pulled his glasses off his belt once more and slid them back on. "We should get back."

Chloe sighed and walked over to him, shaking her head, "I have done a lot of things like this before on my own, you know? I'm not incapable of breaking into places or doing any of the things you guys do on a mission just because I don't have as much training or I don't lift weight every day."

He frowned at her. "Correct me if I'm wrong, but did I ever state otherwise?" He shook his head.

She frowned back at him and shrugged a shoulder, "no, but I just want to make sure you know that I can do more than Watchtower work."

"If I thought you couldn't, you wouldn't be here right now, Chloe," he told her seriously. He gazed at her a moment.
