You & I | The Flash FanFiction| BOOK 2

Chapter 18

"Y-you're what?" Savitar put the glass of champagne down on the table and looked at Caitlin shock and horror.

"I'm pregnant," she repeated with a softer voice.

Savitar sat down on the couch silently, fiddling with his hands.

After minutes of silence, Caitlin sat next to him and put her hands on top of his, which made him look up at her.

"Say something," she pleaded.

"I-I don't know what to say."

"I'm sorry. I should've told you the second I found out, but I had no idea if we were ready or not and with everything going on with Ron and Matthew, I didn't-" Savitar stopped Caitlin from rambling on by bringing his lips to hers.

He smiled, "it's not that I'm angry, I didn't know what to say 'cause I had no words to express how ... happy and excited I am."

Caitlin laughed, "seriously? I thought you'd be upset. That's why I told Joe first."

"Joe knew before me? Okay, well now I feel betrayed."

Caitlin rolled her eyes but couldn't come up with a comment as Savitar picked her up and span her around, arms around her waist.

"How long have you known?"

"Around three weeks."

He gently put her down and touched her stomach and she put her hand on his again.

"You think we're ready for such a big change?"

"I have no idea, but Cait, I think this child is going to be the best thing to happen to us."

Caitlin put her arms around his neck, "I love you."

"Not as much as I love you."

Just then, Savitar felt lightning travel through his arms from where Caitlin was touching him.

"Cait?" He looked into her eyes and saw the familiar lightning bolts flash through. As soon as it appeared, it disappeared, and Caitlin started to fall to the ground before he caught her.

"You saw the speed force in her?" Barry asked, confused.

"No," Savitar rolled his eyes, "I saw lightning in her eyes, but I felt the speed force."

"But you failed to mention that she's pregnant?" Harry walked out of the medical bay, arms crossed.

"Hm? Oh yeah, she is. Three weeks in actually." Savitar muttered.

"Caitlin's pregnant? ... that actually makes so much sense now that I think about it!" Iris exclaimed.

"Caitlin's what?" Cisco asked as he walked into the cortex.

Savitar ran a hand through his hair, "I just found out before she passed out on me!"

Harry put a hand up and Savitar took a deep breath in.

"Well, off of my research-" Harry started.

"That took three hours," Savitar mumbled.

"It's pretty clear that the child has powers."

"What?" Barry questioned.

"That's impossible!" Savitar agreed.
