It was now mid-May and the Central City was starting to heat up dramatically. The summer was always a busy season in Central City and the University was hosting a marathon festival in the city for anyone in the whole city who wanted to run it. There wasn't just a marathon, there were a half marathon and five and ten kilometres too and as he was a very good runner Barry had decided to sign up.
"You know, I'm running it too right," Caitlin stated as they walked home from Jitters hand in hand.
"You run?" he questioned din disbelief.
"Well, I haven't in a little while but I still run occasionally. At the end of senior year in high school, I ran the marathon and ran it in two hours forty-five minutes,"
"Wow, that's fast. I have run a couple and the fastest I have ever done it is two and a half hours. Maybe we should train together, I can help you get quicker," he complimented, surprised that he didn't know how good she was. The fastest female time in the world is just over two hours and fifteen minutes and the fastest male time is just over two hours.
"Woah, I knew you were fast but I didn't think that fast," she replied, bumping her shoulder against his with a smile. "We will be the fastest couple there. That's pretty hot, don't ya think?" she teased with a smirk.
"Yeah? It kinda is. By the way, I need to wash my car because I haven't done it in ages and considering the heat it would probably be best for me to do it today. Then we can maybe go out for a run together. Do some training for the heat," he suggested.
"Okay. I'll help you with the car. It might be fun," she replied teasingly, squeezing his hand then beginning to run so they could run the rest of the way home.
...
Barry started before Caitlin as she was taking ages to change. Before she was simply wearing an off the shoulder white shirt and denim shorts but she had insisted that she changed in case she got wet by the hose.
A few minutes later, she stepped out wearing a white crop top that showed her flat stomach and white running shorts with some white Nike trainers to match with her hair tied in a messy bun. She looked amazing and Barry couldn't help but stare.
"Hey! Eyes up, Allen!" she teased with a smirk, approaching him and grabbing some stuff to wash the car with. "You were doing just fine before I came down here. Maybe I should just watch you do it. You definitely look... hot. You would certainly look even hotter without the shirt,"
"Well, I didn't know that you would be looking like that. You look amazing. And I guess it is really hot today, maybe I will take off the shirt," he teased right back, taking her waist and pulling her close before removing his shirt and throwing it to the ground.
"That is much better. But I think I am feeling a lot warmer now," she continued to tease, running her hands up and down his chest flirtatiously. She giggled as he backed up against the car and kissed her passionately, lifting her up onto the bonnet so she could sit on it, her legs wrapping around his waist. Their tongues fighting for dominance and their hands exploring each other's backs. This was way too much fun.
Caitlin leaned downwards so she was laying down pulling him down with her
"Get a room!" they heard a male voice shout. They pulled away and blushed and Barry helped Caitlin off the car so they could get back to the task at hand.
Their playful and flirty behaviour didn't subside however as they continued to tease each other exchanging kisses every so often.
"Cait!" Barry called out.
"Yeah..." she was interrupted by a sponge hitting her in the face. "HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR!" she shouted, grabbing a sponge a throwing one right back at him.
