In A Matter Of Seconds [Under Editing]

Chapter 26

"You told him?" Emely quesitoned the older man when he arrived back home and told her that he told Barry how she felt about him.

"You wanted him to know, and now he does." Before she could say anything, Barry came speeding in.

"You and I need to talk." Joe took that as a sign to leave. 

"What do you want to-" Barry went over and crashed his lips onto hers. 

Emely was surprised at first, but then started to kiss him back. Barry pulled away and let his forehead rest on hers. 

"I am so sorry. I'm sorry for leading you on the way I did. I didn't realize that until now." Emely stepped back and led him to the couch.

"So, Joe told me that he told you that I-"

"Yeah, he did." Emely bit her lip. 

"He told me that you told him. He told me this because I said that you didn't like in that way and he asked me how I knew you didn't and I asked him how knew if you did. He said that you him. He also said that everyone knew how you felt before you realized it yourself." Emely nodded.

"Yeah, they did. I guess it was pretty obvious." Emely smiled softly.

"I was thinking and that's when I realized that I was leading you on. I clearly remember all the times that I did," he scooted closer to her,  "I also realized how I felt about you. I really like you, and I guess that my feelings showed and I was really oblivious to it. I kept telling myself that I still had feelings for Iris, when I actually had feelings for you.  I miss you so much. I love your comments you make and everything about you. I don't know if you still do or not because of the whole Iris thing. If you don't like me anymore, then I understand. I led you-" Emely grabbed Barry's face and shut him up with a kiss. 

"You talk too much." Emely giggled which made Barry smile.

"But no." His smile faded and his heart started to break a little.

"What?" Emely saw the emotion in his eyes

"No meaning that my feelings haven't changed and I don't think they ever could." Barry smiled at her.

"I like you Emely Hart. A lot." 

"I like you too, Bartholomew." He placed a kiss on her lips. 

"Why was Joe laughing? He said something about you distorting your vocal chords." Barry smiled. 

"I can change my voice so no one could reconize my voice." Emely stared at Barry.

"You better not do that to me." Barry laughed.

"Don't worry, I only do that when I'm the Flash." Emely nodded.

"Oh, how'd it go with Iris?" Barry sighed.

"She posted another blog. But she's doing for me. To let people know that the impossible is possible. She even put her name on the blog." 

"She didn't." Barry nodded.

"She did." 

"But I know you'll save her. You care for her." Barry nodded.

"Not as much as I care about you." Emely smiled soflty at him before he kissed her.

The two of them made out for awhile before heading home to sleep. 

"Night, Barry."

"Night, baby." Barry chuckled as Emely hid her face in his chest as she blushed. 

They eneded up spooning as the soon fell alseep.
