Sweet Creature

[8]

Dani looked wide eyed at Barry.
"Leonard Snart?"
Barry nodded.
"Yes."
Dani looked down.
"Do you have his picture?"
Barry brought picture and show it to his sister. Dani scoffed.
"He's a liar."
Barry's eyes widened.
"He's a criminal, Elle."
Dani sighed.
"How could I be so stupid? He was the guy that I went on a date with."
Barry growled.
"He didn't hurt you, right?"
Dani shook her head sadly.
"No. I was so stupid."
Barry pulled her in a hug.
"You are not stupid. You just didn't know. I should've told you about Snart."
Dani nodded and pulled away.
"I'm going home, Bare."
Dani pulled out her phone and called Leonard.
"Elle? Is everything okay?"
"Why didn't you tell me, Snart?"
"I didn't want you to find out like this."
"When were you going to tell me you were a criminal?! Who does that?"
"Calm down, Ellie."
"No! I won't calm down. If you hurt Caitlin I will personally murder you."
"We both know that won't happen, darling."
"I don't want to see you ever again."
"What? No, Elle, listen..."
Dani just hang up. She sat on couch and started crying. Barry run in and stopped when he saw his sister. He sat next to her and pulled her to his chest.
"Hey. Don't cry, Ellie."
Dani looked up at her big brother.
"I was so happy. Why can't I ever be happy, Bare? I miss mommy. She would knew what to do."
Barry kissed her forehead.
"I'm not mom but I can make cocoa."
Dani giggled and nodded. In a flash, Barry was back with two cocoa mugs.
Dani looked at him.
"Is Caitlin okay?"
Barry nodded.
"She is fine. Don't worry."
Dani nodded. Barry pulled her to him and two siblings fell asleep.
A message beeped on Dani's phone.
Please, Elle, forgive me. I was trying to protect you. I miss you.
Lenny
Barry sighed as he deleted the message. He doesn't want his little sister hurt.
