Second Date. With chloeas.

[olliequeen]

Oliver stood outside the theater on the square, leaning back against the brick building casually and looking up at the sky. His mind was working over the details of the case in Gotham that Bruce had been trying to figure out, but he was just as stumped as his friend was. He frowned a little as a drop of rain hit his face and he sighed a little as it was followed by another.

He looked out to the street and smiled a bit as he saw Chloe's car pull into a parking place. He pushed himself away from the building and headed toward her as she climbed out of the vehicle.

She was surprised to see him standing right next to her car when she got out, smiling, she cocked her head, "hey, didn't expect to see you for a few more steps."

This time, she was on time and in the past couple of days, she had felt herself really looking forward to seeing him again, of course it was because he was the closest thing to a friend she had in town, but she was glad it was finally Friday night.

"Maybe you can earn your pulitzer from it," he told her with a small smile. "The Star City reporter who saved the lives of three young women." Guilt tugged at him. He knew he was dragging her into something that was potentially very dangerous. But resolve set in. She was willing to help, and he and Bruce needed just that.

It just meant he'd have to keep her close in order to keep her safe.

He smirked and turned his head to look at her. "I hear he's friends with a six foot rabbit that hands out Easter baskets in the spring."

Oliver nodded and rose to his feet, holding his hand out to her and offering her a smile. "What'd you think?" he asked curiously.

Cocking her head a little, she smirked, "I hate even using that word, but that's not what the tabloids say." Mostly, she was teasing.

"You don't know what you're missing, it's like drinking a Reese's cup." She told him before turning her own attention back to the menu.

At that, she laughed, shaking her head a little, "I guess I don't have a choice in the matter. Sure, going out every now and then is fun, but I really do enjoy my work just as much, and I get paid to do it. It's backwards already." She grinned.

"Ah, another sport, I think you were lying to me." She teased softly, "I like the cold myself, although snow can get annoying after a couple of days."

"And I wasn't even trying," she smirked at him, "but good to know."
