Information. With [livejournal.com profile] chloeas.

Oliver's mind had not been on work the entire afternoon, especially when he'd gotten a message from Chloe stating that Stuart had woke up, and that she was going to go talk to him. His stomach was tight with unease as he waited on the doorstep. It never felt right to just barge in on her. Watchtower was her place, and while she'd always made it clear he was welcome, it just felt wrong to let himself in.

So he reached up and rang the bell, looking up at the security camera and offering her a grin. Not as wide as it could have been, but a grin nonetheless.

"I just got back from the hospital, got here about ten seconds before you did." It was the truth at least, even if it didn't answer his question.

"Chloe." His voice was quiet and he cocked his head a little.

She glanced over at him, raising her eyebrows.

Oliver studied her intently. "What's going on?" There were different ways to approach different people at different times. He'd always been a fairly perceptive guy, more so than a lot of other guys. And he'd spent a great deal of time around Chloe lately, and one thing he'd learned was that beating around the bush with her was pointless. If he wanted or needed to know something, it was best to just ask her point blank.

He was right, it was usually the best way to get her to talk about something she didn't want to, but it didn't mean it always worked, "I don't wanna get into it."

She held his gaze, her voice completely sincere this time. Just because she and Clark were having problems, it didn't mean she wanted to drag Oliver into it or put him in the middle.
