Baby Brother

A/N Written by @Icylightning.

Barry woke up shutting his alarm clock.

He groaned.

The weekend was over and today was Monday. It meant he had to go back to work. Why did he have to go? Why? He asked this question to himself everyday. Don't get him wrong. Barry loved his job. He really did. It was his childhood dream after all. But that didn't change the fact that his workplace was living hell for him.

Laying back on his bed Barry's mind drifted off. His problem being the Officers and Detectives working at the station. Because of his young age Barry was teased and called names by his seniors. They always seem to gain pleasure in tormenting him. Barry remembers each of the names he's need called like Baby face...Junior...Lab rat...and the worst one...Kid.

Barry loathed that name.

Who calls a twenty five year old a 'Kid'?. It should be against the law.

Barry was sure no one there cared about him. They were tolerating him because of Joe. He wondered if they would even notice if he went missing one day. Not that all the officers were mean. Few were good and respected him. But then again there were 'FEW'!

Barry sighed getting out of his thoughts. He lazily made his way to get ready for the day. After taking a quick hot water bath he got ready wearing dark blue jeans with red checks shirt. The clock read seven thirty. He still had time for breakfast.

Making his way down Barry was met with silence in the living room.

Neither Joe or Iris were to be seen. His eyes fell on dinning table with a covered plate waiting for him. It had a note attached to it. Barry picked up the note and read: "Eat your breakfast! Dad's already left to the station. I have an early presentation. Wish me luck. See you in the evening. Iris"

Deciding he only wanted an apple, Barry made his way out of the house.

He made a quick stop at Jitters for his caffeine. That trip made him miss his bus so he had to take a cab which proved difficult seeing the morning traffic. Now Barry was almost two hours late. He made a run towards the door as soon as he reached precinct.

In doing so Barry bumped into someone, "Sorry!"

"Hey baby face! Watch were your going...this isn't your playground," one of his senior growled at him.

"Sorry Ryan!" Barry apologized immediately

"It's Detective Miller to you!" the man adjusted his tie and coa.t

"Yeah..sorry Detective Miller. Actually I was..."

"Whatever!" Miller brushed off Barry and walked pass by him.

Barry face fell. It was nothing new. He was walking to his lab when Officer Conell stopped him, "Kid...Captain wants to see you now!

Barry rolled his eyes, "Thank you Officer Conell!"

"Don't thank me yet Allen...I want the fingerprint test ready on the Raphael murder case within an hour at my desk!" Conell ordered threateningly.

Barry nodded quickly and went to see Captain Singh. He knocked twice and entered. Joe was standing with a file in his hand while Captain was pacing around the room.
