I woke up in an unfamiliar place. My vision was blurred at first, but when it was clearer I glanced around. It was certainly not my house, and this was most definitely not my bed.
Clothes were scattered all around the floor and I could recognize some of them being mine. I also noticed someone else's scattered along with them.
I turned around and faced the truth. I didn't want to, but I had to come to terms with myself and a sleeping Barry Allen was laying by my side.
I put the pieces together and went into full blown panic. Many questions flowed through my head and it would be a lot easier to remember them if I remembered anything from last night.
And the biggest question on my mind right now was: "how come I can't remember?." Neither Barry or I drank last night. We didn't do anything we weren't supposed to do, so I don't understand how this happened.
At that moment, Barry stirred and he blinked a few times before walking up.
"......Chloe? What are you doing here?" He asked, shooting up out of his bed and grabbing a blanket. He wrapped it around his torso and stepped back. He stepped on his jeans and looked down. He then looked around and noticed the clothes scattered around the room.
"Oh......oh...no......We...We...-"
"Yeah....." I replied.
"I'm so sorry...I don't know how this happened.....We didn't drink or-"
"I know. That's why I'm confused.....what happened last night?" I asked. "All I remember was going to a party, and then waking up here."
"I remember most of the party, but not the "afterparty". We met at the party, talked, and had a good time. We flirted the whole night and danced the night away. When it got super late, you asked if you could crash on my couch and I said yes. I didn't think this was going to happen. Nor do I remember what happened leading up to that."
"I see. But it still doesn't make sense................You said we were flirting during the party...and we've always liked each other.............This was just possibly an act of love. Yes, this was a little too fast, but that shows how much we mean to each other. And knowing you, you'd never do anything to hurt me. You're a great person, Barry. And it's not like we're total strangers, i've known you for a long time. But if we want to progress with this relationship, promise me we'll take it slow?" I asked.
"Like the heathens." (TWENTY ONE PILOTS REFERENCE FOR Y'ALL!!!!)
