Half past noon after getting a few, short hours of sleep, Kara and Barry were learning how to change diapers and hugging their new ones, now labeled as Baby Girl Allen A (blonde) and Baby Girl Allen B (brunette) Now just resting in the bed and the chair the two were figuring out a couple of things when their was a knock on the door and Cat stood at the doorway.

"Hi Ms. Grant," Kara smiled at her boss.

"Hello Kira, Billy." Cat said. She then saw both new parents each holding a baby. "You never mentioned twins."

"Oh, the little one in Barry's arms made a surprise after her sister was born." Kara laughed softly.

Cat gave a small smile. "I know nothing about baby girls."

"Do you want to hold one of them?" Barry asked as he stood up. "I was just about to leave and go to the cafe."

Cat seemed very calm, but her insides were a bit different. She hadn't held a newborn in over ten years. But Cat nodded as she hung her jacket over a chair and placed her bag down on the seat. Cat took the newborn in her arms and instantly felt her mother instincts takeover. "She's cute." Cat said as she walked over to the chair next to Kara and sat down.

"She looks like Barry and me mixed. This one here looks a lot like me with Barry's hair." Kara smiled and looked at the one in her arms.

She was grateful that neither twin had showed powers yet. Her hologram mother had mentioned that once both girls were outside the building, where the sunlight directly touched their skin, they would soon gain Kryptonian powers. They'll be very, very weak at first where they probably wouldn't be showing them so much. This would last until their first birthday; then precautions would have to take place.

Down at the cafe Barry stood at the pickup end waiting for the coffee orders and the sandwiches. He stood there skipping through his cell phone gallery and looking at the five photos he had taken of his daughters. His daughters. No, their daughters. It'd only been half a day and he still couldn't believe he was a dad now.

"Barry?"

Barry turned at the call of his name and came face to face with Kara's ex, Adam, next in the line. "Oh, hey." Barry said.

"Hi." Adam said, a bit awkwardly. "How's Kara?"

"She's good." Barry smiled.

"Good. And, uh, the baby?"

"Babies."

"Babies?"

"Yeah," Barry smiled with a small chuckle. "Twins."

"Cool!" Adam smiled. "That's an awesome surprise. Congratulations.

"Thanks."

The two were silent for another moment before Barry spoke up. "Hey, uh, Adam? Thank you."

Adam lifted an eyebrow. "What did I do?"

"Thank you for helping to get Kara here." He told him. "Kara told me everything...how you helped her get here."

Adam shrugged. "I didn't do a lot really. I helped her sit down then got my mom. She's been through two pregnancies, I've had no experience in helping women."

"Yes. But you drove her here, got her the wheelchair and wheeled her inside. You offered your hand for her to squeeze the living life out of. " Barry smiled. "You helped a lot."

"Yeah she......she broke her cell phone. And the arm chair I think." Adam recalled the events. "Twins probably pained her that much I guess."

Barry nodded. "Yeah. The girls."

Adam smirked. "Twin girls?" Barry nodded. "Out numbered." Adam laughed.

Barry shrugged in response with a laugh.

"Barry?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm really sorry."

"For what?"

"For...making out with Kara," Adam hung his head a little bit. "It meant almost nothing I promise."

"Almost nothing?"

"I still hate how we broke up and there was a part of me that wasn't over it yet." Adam explained. "But we're done, I promise. We're going on into new lives; I've got Kally and Kara has you and the girls."

Barry looked at Adam's face and saw the generosity in his face. He could sense and tell that Adam meant it. "Did you tell Kally?"

"Not yet."

"Tell her soon before she hears it ten years after you guys get married." Barry grinned. "It's cool. I guess I needed a wake up call. It helped us talk."

Back down in the hospital room the boys walked in to find both blondes finishing up a conversation. Kara saw the two of them and waved them in. "Hey. Ms. Grant was just about to leave."

"Adam I'll meet you back home." Cat said as she stood up from the chair and walked to the door. Barry held up one of the coffee cups. "What's this?"

"Your special latte Ms. Grant." He replied. "Kara's told me."

Cat took the coffee in her hands. "Thank you," She smiled. "Barry." She turned back to her assistant. "Have a good day Kara."

With that said, the Queen of Social Media left the room, leaving the three adults in a bit shock. "Did she just refer to you guys as Kara and Barry?" Adam asked.

"Who gave her drugs?" Barry asked.

"No idea," Kara said. "She looked at Adam and said, "The nurses took the twins down to the nursery. Just ask for Baby Allen A and Baby Allen B."

Adam smirked. "I wanna see them in person too." Adam said. "Congrats." He hugged her.

"Thank you."

When Adam left the room, Barry kicked his sneakers and socks off and laid on the bed next to Kara, placing the food and coffees down. Kara reached for one before Barry, lightly, smacked her hands. "You wanna get sick?"

"Barry!"

"So, Cat Grant knows my name?" Barry bit into a sandwich.

Kara sat up and choked on her coffee. "No, that's not even the odd part."

"What's the odd part?"

"She knows."

"Cat knows what?"

"Cat and Adam, they know." Kara's eyes went big and expressed wildness.

Barry understood in a flash of a second what Kara meant. "She knows we're-"

"Yes."

"That you are-"

"Yes."

"And that I'm-"

"Yup." Kara smiled.

"How?"

"Did you zoom in here and then brought your friends here one at a time? In the same room?" Kara asked.

"Well...I just got excited and after accidentally bringing everyone to Earth 2 and then to another Earth called Gray Earth, where everyone has no emotions, then I brought them here." Barry explained. "I didn't want to miss any second of it. I'm glad I came at the right time."

"Well yes. And that Supergirl interview I gave, she figured out who I was right there and then." Kara smiled. "She told Adam and that's it. She's going to keep her promise."

"I feel like that's the truth." Barry smiled.
