After 15 years of being abandoned by her dad, Skye came back to her hometown months after his death. Starting a new job was the only thing in her book but Central City had other plans for her. Secrets to uncover that may or may not change her comple...

SKYE
"You work for The Flash?!" My mouth was hanging open in astonishment.
"With the flash, actually. We're more like a team." Cisco corrected.
"I read about him before coming to Central City. He truly is a hero. So, you must know his real identity, right?" I turned on my heels.
"I- We-...
The three of them looked at each other trying to figure out what to say to me. "I get it. Secret Identity and all" I quoted with my fingers.
"Yeah. Sorry." Cisco awkwardly apologized.
"So.. my dad. He helped him too, right? And knew who he was." The truth struck me. "Of course, he did. I mean building a huge lab and working with a superhero is more fun than raising a kid or having a family" I chuckle nervously.
"Skye..
"I don't think..
"It's okay. You don't have to feel sorry for me. I mean, you don't even know me" I wiped a tear forming in the corner of my eye and I smiled. "Here. You can have this. It's all yours. I see you at the CCPD" I handed Barry the keys.
"Skye, wait." Barry said.
"It's okay Allen. I'm fine. Nice to meet you guys." I smiled and walked off.

"I feel so bad for her. She doesn't even know the truth." Caitlin sighed.
"She's been living in a lie for fifteen years" I fixed my eyes on the keys in my fingers.
"You should tell her, man." Cisco suggested.
"If I tell her the truth I will have to reveal my identity. I can't put anybody else at risk. I can't." I struggled.
"But her dad didn't abandon her. Thawne killed him. She deserves to know the truth." Caitlin insisted.
"I can't, guys. I can't."
"Barry, where are you going?" Cisco worried.
"To see if there's any news about the release of my dad" I said walking out of the room.
The moment I heard Harrison Wells had a daughter, guilt covered my body. Because if it wasn't for Thawne wanting to kill me the real Harrison Wells would be alive and he wouldn't have left a nine year old kid alone in this world. And man I know how that feels. The void that it creates within you. In my heart I knew they were right. Skye deserves to know the truth.But that would mean telling her the truth about my identity and I already ruined her life by taking away her dad. I won't risk her life by telling her who I really am.
"Hey, Joe. Is there any news about my dad? When is he getting out?" I said over the phone. "Really? Today?!"
