Trapped in My Own Little World

Late. Not Like She's Complaining.

Kara pov

I am running so fricken late holy crap I'm so fired. I ran to Noonan's for Cat's usual order, I'm physically shaking. I've never been late for something like this. Frick frick fricken A.

"Hi, Cat Grant's usual please," I told the barista when I got inside.

"Okay," She turned around and gave another barista the information.

I waited by the counter biting my lip watching the small clock on the wall tick. I was brought out of my thoughts when a tall guy, with dark hair and green eyes came over to me, "Hi um, sorry to bother you, I-I'm new around here and was wondering if you could help me find Catco. Worldwide Media?" he asked.

"Yeah, sure I'm headed there right now," I answered trying to be nice. He was hot, I will admit that, which is why I don't know why the hell he would choose me of all people to show him to Catco.

The barista from earlier handed me the bag at the same time as he said, "Thank you," to me.

"It's no problem, oh I'm Kara by the way," I said, Kara by the way? What the hell is wrong with me.

"Barry," Barry held out his hand. I took it and we shook hands briefly before continuing walking.

"So uh where are you from? I mean like, because you said you were new around here," I said quickly. Jesus, Lord please help me.

He chuckled, that's a good sign, right? "I'm actually here on business, I work for the Central City Police Department."

I nodded, Central City is where that streak, the Flash, resides, "So what brought you to the infamous Cat Grant?"

"I'm the forensic scientist and they moved a case that I have to work on from here to there. I need Cat's intel on what really happened," He explained.

"Well if you ever need any help around here just ask me, I'm Cat's assistant so I'm just outside her office," I offered.

He smiled, Yes I'm doing something right! "Okay, thanks Kara."

"I just have one question," Don't you dare say it, Kara! He looked at me, "Out of all the people, how come you chose me to show you around? Not that I don't enjoy talking to you it's just, I'm usually just kind of looked over," Well that is my main goal is to be looked over due to my alienness, not that anyone looking at me could notice that I just am trying to fit in... but I seriously just had to say that?

I just stood there mentally slapping myself before he answered, "I don't really know, your smile kind of lit up the whole room, it was hard not to come over earlier."

I felt the warm tingly feeling of a blush creeping up my neck, "That's probably one of the cheesiest things I've ever heard, but it was also probably the sweetest."

"That's kind of what I was going for," he chuckled and put his hand on the back of his neck, what does that mean? What do I do? "I-I'm not really the type that does that, I'm usually more the quiet one," He was blushing now, I could tell, he's so cute.

I couldn't help but giggle a little, "It's okay, so am I. But for the record you're pretty good at those pick up lines."

He flashed me a smile, and to that I smiled back at him, "Oh yeah? So if I asked you out, what would you say?"

"I'd probably give you my number so we could figure out a time and day," I tried to tease, I'm really not that good at this.

He blushed again, dang, why does he have to be so cute when he blushes, "Okay, so Kara, do you maybe wanna go out sometime?"

I handed him Catco. card that had my name and number on it. Those were just for when Cat had someone she didn't wanna talk to so I was forced to get the message to and from.

"Yes, I will go out with you," I answered.

We were walking for what seemed like forever, not that I'm complaining. Barry's really sweet. But soon enough we were in front of Cat's office. Too soon. I walked into the office and set the coffee and breakfast on her desk. "Before you say it, I know I'm late. But I ran into your 8:30 on the way here," Barry held out his hand for Cat too shake.

Cat ignored his hand, "Keira you are dismissed," she shooed me away like I was a school kid and she was the teacher.

Well at least I have a date. A really cute one. And we didn't meet from a website.
