I sat down on table and looked at my phone.
"Lex."
"Yeah." I respond.
"Time to take your stitches out."
"Are you sure it's had enough time?"(not sure how long she will be affected by the stitches)
"I think it has been. Have you ever had stitches?"
"No. I have lived pretty safe." I say.
"It's not gonna be that bad." He says grabbing some things from the tool drawers.
"Not bad. Huh?" I say. Oliver looks up and looks back down continuing to take them out.
"It hurt more going in." I say with a slight giggle.
"Done." Oliver says backing up in his rolling chair.
"Do we have to the other ones?" I ask hoping he says yes so I can get the pain over with.
"You want to?" He asks.
"I mean I'm not gonna be any more ready anytime soon." I say. Oliver rolls back to me and starts again. Hurt less than the other ones. He has to take out a lot more than last time. I continue to watch him do it even though he told me not to. I like watching him focus.
"When you were little what did you want to be?" I ask.
"I never really had answer. Why?" He looks up.
"I think you could be a good doctor. You help people, you don't care about blood, and you can focus. I wanted to be a costume designer. That never happened." I say looking at his diamond eyes.
"I am no way smart enough to be a doctor. You maybe you can help one of my friends out with his suit."
"Who?" I perk up.
"The Flash." Oliver says.
"You're joking right?" I ask.
"No I actually do know him and his team."
"Oh my. How do you know him? When do I get to meet him?"
"Breathe." Oliver says.
"I don't think I can. You just said like my dream. When can I meet him? Do you do like team up and fight together? Talk to me." I say.
"You want to meet him? Work with him? Make a suit for him? And meet his team? But you have never met him." Oliver says.
"You scared I'm gonna like him more than I like you? Ollie he has nothing on you. Well I mean he can probably run a mile in 5 seconds and go on the salmon ladder in like 5 seconds. But no one and I mean no one will ever look better on the salmon ladder." I say with a smile. Oliver pulls out his phone and starts texting. A few seconds later papers fly of the table and I see a cute, nerdy, and happy guy.
"Hey." I say breaking the silence.
"Hello I'm Barry Allen. The guy who got hit by lightning and now have speed." Barry says.
"That's a new way to introduce yourself. I'm Lexi but call me Lex." I say shaking his open hand.
"Lexi wants to help make you a better suit." Oliver says.
"Yeah that would be nice." Barry says looking at Oliver's arrows.
"How long have you been the Flash? Can I meet your team? Can we team up?" I ask fast before I have time to regret it.
"A couple months. Sure and I don't know how Oliver feels about that." He says.
"Lexi can I talk to you for a few seconds?" Oliver says more of command than question. I follow Oliver to the back room.
"What?" I ask.
"We aren't teaming up. I don't need him. I got him here for you to meet him and help him with his suit." Oliver finishes.
"Cocky much." I say. I see Oliver's face go more serious than before.
"Why can't you just accept that fact that someone wants to help you. I know you're not a team person but Oliver get over yourself." I end and walk back to Barry.
"Tell me about yourself Barry Allen." I say sitting down putting my feet on the table.
"I live in Central City. I am a forensic scientist. Single, eat a lot, run fast, bad at flirting, and some say I'm awkward." He says.
"How is the suit situation?" I ask.
"My team and I have the design but can't find the right materials. If i don't stop right then the suit starts on fire. Oliver said you wanted to help. I don't want to cause any problems here." He says.
"You're fine it's just Oliver. I would love to help you with your suit." I say. We start talking and I see Oliver pass by us. I made him made I can tell. One way because he didn't give me a peck and he didn't say a word. Me and Barry talk about how we can improve the suit and material choices.
"Want sushi?" He asks.
"No thanks. Hate seafood." I say and I see that red streak run out and come back within seconds. He is seated eating sushi.
"You and Oliver?" He asks as he stuffs a roll into his mouth.
"We're a thing I guess. Please feel free to ask questions." I say.
"What happens to you leg?" I see him pause at the end.
"Drunk ex boyfriend." I say.
"What's the best part of working on this team and what's the worst?" Barry asks.
"Best part would have to being able to watch people do what they are best at and use that to save people. Worst part is I am sorta part of the team and not at the same time. Everyone has a place on this team but I don't." I say.
"You move here recently?" He asks.
"Almost a month." I say.
"You will find it. There gaps in places you think are flawless. Worst things happen and you can join team Flash."
"Wait you call yourself team Flash?" I ask with joy.
"Yeah." He says slowly.
"Oliver hates when I call us team Arrow." I say.
