Happiness is difficult to find and even harder to keep. No one tells you that when life makes things easier for you that disaster is just around the corner.
*Season 4-6 of The Flash

It feels like someone punched me so hard in the gut. The Monitor left as easily as he appeared. Leaving more destruction. "I stared at that newspaper for so many years. First, it felt like a guide. You know, like proof that things were headed in the right direction. Then it became a word hanging over my head. A part of me always felt like...if I vanish in whatever crisis is coming...maybe I was still out there somewhere, looking for a way to come back to you. According to The Monitor, that doesn't happen." Barry tells me as he continues to be slumped against the wall on the ground. He seems defeated. I turn the lights back on.
"What he said was complete bullshit." I state.
"It's not. It will happen, and there's nothing I can do to stop it." Barry argues with me.
"No, it is bullshit. You vanish in five years, and now that asshole comes back after messing with our lives and says you will die on December 10th. That is utter bullshit. Last time I read that article, it said you were in a fight with Thawne. Not this disaster."
"The article changed." Barry says to me as he keeps his head down.
"And if it can change, then we can still change the future." I say with confidence. "Our daughter came from the future and changed everything. We can do the same." I say to Barry. I grab his hand and hold it tight. "I can come to grips with losing you in the future. But this sudden change of when it will happen is something... that's only seven weeks Barry. We went from five years to seven weeks. That..." I place my hand over my bump. "Our child will not know you." I begin to cry.
"Hey, hey. Look at me."
"I feel like my heart is breaking and...I never want you to leave my side. I...I feel like I'm shattering from the inside out." I admit to him. I try and control my emotions. "I...I am going to support you through this. What are we going to do first?" I ask my husband.
"If a doctor told you were dying, you'd get a second opinion. So I'm gonna go see this Crisis for myself." Barry answers.
__________________________________ With everyone gone, this gives us the chance to find some answers "Are you ready?" I ask Barry.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
"Where will you go?"
"December 11, 2019." He answers. "It's the day after I'm supposed to disappear."
"And it's right for us not to bring the team into this?" I ask, not feeling sure if we're doing the right thing.
"Not until we know the truth."
"I wish I could go with you." I admit.
"I know and...I wish you could too, but I need to keep you and our precious bundle safe." He places his hand on my stomach. He smiles.
