PREVIOUSLY...
Iris gives Barry a tight hug and kisses him goodbye; pressing her lips excruciatingly close to the left corner of his mouth.
Why did she do that? Had she ever done it before? These two questions appeared in the minds of both Iris and Barry.
This gesture drove him literally so crazy that he couldn't even dare look her in the eyes when he replied, "Yeah, see you tomorrow."
He then walked ridiculously fast down the street and when sure he was out of their sight, he used his power to speed off .
Shortly, he found himself in bed breathing very rapidly and vibrating uncontrollably.
Part 8
Iris spent the entire car ride home with Eddie questioning what she had just done and why. The entire scenario played on repeat in her mind as she constantly tried to analyze what could have pushed her to kiss Barry so close to his lips.
In the midst of all her confusion, one thing was clear. She loved how she could literally feel him tense up the second her lips collided with the bridge between his jaw and parted mouth.
She could've sworn she saw him gradually close his eyes for at least a second before quickly bowing his head down in embarrassment and backing away from her. Then, he refused to meet her eyes as he hurriedly vanished into the night.
After trying really hard and failing to suppress that warm bubbly feeling in the pit of her stomach, Iris finally admitted it. A part of her found pleasure in knowing she had the ability to make Barry Allen squirm under something so simple and small as her touch.
Consequently, she couldn't help but wonder what was going through his mind as he quickly sped off into the darkness. Will this make things even more complicated and awkward between them?
She had always viewed herself as very self - aware and most importantly, immensely self - disciplined. No matter the situation, she always took responsibility for all her actions. The belief that she had complete and utter control over her life was at the very center of her core.
But this, what she did, goes against all of it.
What was even more disturbing was the possibility that Eddie might have witnessed the whole thing. Needless to say, the guilt was eating her alive.
What the fuck was wrong with her? She questioned.
