In A Matter Of Seconds [Under Editing]

Chapter 51

"My ears popped."

"You're lucky you didn't break your neck. What is it with billionaires being superheroes?" Emely looked at Barry

"I didn't know you were a billionaire." Barry shook his head with a smile.

"So have you picked a name yet?" Emely smiled at Cisco's eagerness 

"I'm kind of partial to the A.T.O.M. Shhew." Ray made a circle with his hand and then made it smaller.

"Are you married to that, or..?" 

"Your A.T.O.M suit. Quite the technological achievement, Mr. Palmer. I'm impressed." 

"And he's never impressed." Ray looked back to Dr. Wells.

"Thank you, but I can't quite seem to keep it up." Caitlin furrowed her eyebrows.

"He means the suit." Felicity walked closer to her boyfriend.

"Yeah, I mean the suit." 

"I can attest that everything else works fine. There's nothing we need to fix in that area." Felicity motioned at Ray's lower body. 

"The sex is great." Emely leaned toward Barry

"They're worse than we are." Barry nodded in agreement.

"I know from Felicity that you have been very helpful with Barry and the Flash suit. And I was hoping I could get another set of eyes on my..."

"Problem." 

"Any friend of the Arrow's is the friend of-"

"Hell yes." 

"Guys, we already have a lot going on here already. Finding this lady with her team of flying bees and finding Blake." Cisco looked at her.

"Emely, you don't have to worry. Caitlin and I will provide ample support for you and Barry."

"And I will be happy to sit this one out." Emely glanced at Cisco to Caitlin to Wells and then to Barry, before walking out. 

Without saying a word, Barry followed his love. 

"Ray, why don't you stay here and work on the suit, while I go with Emely and Barry to get some coffee?" 

"Sounds like a plan."

Emely stared at her cup of coffee as Felicity stared at her.

"What is going on with you?"

"What is going on with you? You can't even tell me what happened between you and Oliver, yet you expect me to tell you about what happened?" Barry grabbed Emely's hand and rubbed his thumb back and forth.

Before Felicity could think a response, Eddie came walking toward them. 

"Eddie, hey. You remember Felicity." Eddie smiled at the blonde haired woman. 

"Great to see you." Eddie turned back to Emely and Barry.

"What is wrong with you? Is everyone in Central City in a bad mood? I thought Central City was supposed to be the fun one." 

"It's just..."

"Felicity knows." Eddie nodded

"So everyone knows but Iris."

"Feels that way." Barry took a sip of his coffee

"How can you both lie to everyone you care about?" Felicity turned to Eddie.

"Don't think of it as lying. Think of it as protecting her from getting hurt. With a fib." 

"But Iris can sense that I'm hiding something and it's putting a wedge between us."
