Short on Time

Chapter 79

"Barry, Ginger, we have a major problem," Iris said over the comms.

"Yep. Fighting it right now," Barry said.

"One would think ARGUS would keep this guy from breaking out," I muttered as I blasted Killer Shark.

"No, no, it's about your wedding," Iris said.

"Look out!" Barry shouted at me as he was tossed to the ground over my head.

"This is not the best time," I told Iris as I fell on my hands to avoid my flying husband.

"Well, the caterers need a final count tomorrow morning and not everyone has RSVP'd yet," Iris said.

"Who hasn't RSVP'd?" Barry asked confused.

"The other super's," I told Barry as I formed a barrier of light to keep Killer Shark from rampaging.

"Why didn't you do that before?" Barry asked.

I shrugged, "I hadn't thought to do it."

"Ginger, you are really glowing," Felicity told me as we sat getting pampered before the big day.

"Thank you," I said smiling.

"Wait, it's pregnant women who glow, brides blush," Caitlin said.

"Blushing bride I can do, the other one, been there, done that," I said.

"Oh, It doesn't get better than this, ladies," Iris said.

"I know. It feels so good to just be away from it all. Everything," Kara said.

"Where's Mon-El?" Caitlin asked.

Kara sighed, "you know what? It's a long story, but thank you for letting me bring my sister as my plus-one."

"Absolutely," I said.

"I'm actually really excited to meet her," Iris said.

"Me, too," I agreed.

"Uh," the woman doing Kara's nails gasped as her tool was broken.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I should have warned you. I take a lot of keratin," Kara said.

"Super strong nails," Felicity said.

"So, um, you and Oliver? You guys next, you think, to walk down the aisle?" Iris asked Felicity.

"Maybe once the city is not being attacked and Oliver is no longer under indictment and he's spent enough time with his son who is still mourning the loss of his mother," Felicity said frowning.

"So, any day now," I said.

"Any day now," Felicity agreed.

"Well, cheers, Ginger, to your big day," Caitlin said.

"Again," Iris added.

"I can't believe my baby is getting married," my mother said.

"Their one-year anniversarry is coming up," Chloe pointed out.

"Don't ruin it for her," my father whispered.

"I think it's time for Joe's speech," I said trying to get them to not argue at Barry grabbed my arm.

"Can I have everybody's attention for a second?" Joe said. "All right. So, the old man has a few words to say. What can I possibly say about Barry and Ginger that everyone in this room doesn't already know? How they're special, and kind, and brave.
