You're Joking

You woke up slowly to the feeling of soft kisses on your shoulder, up your neck, and to your face. Barry's deep morning voice whispered sweet nothings into your skin causing you to blush, despite actually being married to the guy for over a year. You turn your head so his lips met yours. He smiles into the kiss, pulling away to look at your beautiful face. His beautiful eyes glimmered with happiness as he, once again, got to wake up next to his best friend and love of his life.

"Good morning, beautiful." He greeted you, leaning down to kiss your lips again.

You let out a little laugh, bringing your arms up to wrap around his neck, kissing him back. "Good morning, handsome."

"I still can't get over the fact that we are married." He whispered into your neck as he gently relaxed on top of you, absentmindedly playing with your hair.

You smile and kiss his shoulder as you ran your fingers up and down his back. "Right? Just over a  year and I still have to remind myself that we live together and we are allowed to sleep together. Like, neither of us have to go home after hanging out or whatever."

The both of you laughed at that, Barry pushing back up onto his hands, his smile lighting up the whole room. He leans down to kiss you before getting up and out of bed. "Marriage is a wonderful thing." He winked at you before entering the bathroom. "Hey babe, I'm going to be working late tonight so don't wait up for me with dinner. I'll just have leftovers."

You turn onto your side, propping your head up on your hand. "Alright, sounds good. Don't work yourself too hard. It's not like you have superpowers or anything." You smirk to yourself knowing Barry was rolling his eyes.

You stand to get dressed, suddenly you were overcome with nausea as well as a pounding headache. You fall back onto the bed and take deep breaths, not really sure what was going on. You hear Barry leave the bathroom, walk over to you and give you a soft kiss on the forehead. He takes his hand and strokes your hair.

"Hey, you ok?"

Your eyes pop open and you smile up at your worried husband. "Oh yeah, I'm fine. Just not ready to get up yet." You laugh nervously to yourself.

He smiles and nods, leaning down to kiss you on the lips. "Love you. I'll see you later tonight." And with that, he was gone.

You close your eyes and let out a breath you didn't know you were holding. Ever since the two got married, Barry made it a habit to do things at home a lot slower, or in your words, "like a normal human being,". You loved it because that meant he would notice more when at home and you didn't feel like you were competing with time for Barry's attention. Your head started to hurt again. Slowly, you got up and went to the bathroom. You guess it wouldn't hurt to check, right? You missed the last two months, but it could mean nothing.

You take the pregnancy test and it comes up negative. Dang it. Suddenly, your phone goes off. You pick it up and see that it's Caitlin. You smile as you accept the call. "Hey girl, how are you?"

Caitlin's happy voice traveled through the phone. "I am doing really well actually. Hey, I called because Barry said you looked a bit pale when he left. He didn't think it's much but I did ask how you were doing. You thinking what I am thinking?" She didn't even try hiding the excitement in her voice. Curse Barry and his observance.

You laugh and playfully roll your eyes. "I already checked. Twice. Both came out negative." You hear a deflated breath on the other end. Dido Caitlin.

"Well, how about you meet me at the hospital. I know a friend who will be more than happy to check you out. I had to go to her because I was worried other doctors would judge me for my superpowered husband. Despite mine being a false alarm, I would be more than happy to introduce you to her." Caitlin chirped.
