Kara woke up to the faint sound of an alarm. She batted her eyes open when she realized the strange warmth surrounding her and the arm around her waist. She looked up to see a sleeping Barry and noticed that she has drifted to sleep with her head on his chest. She reached over to his phone and turned of the alarm. Barry began to stir, Kara rested her head back down and wondered how she was going to get up without disturbing him. She was so lost in thought that it startled her when she heard Barry groaned as he awoke, he smiled sleepily at her as he sat up.
"Morning" He greeted lazily. Kara laughed and stood up allowing Barry to get up as well. He stretched and picked up his phone.
"So any plans for today?" She asked him. He nodded, yawning."
"Yeah, I have to head over to S.T.A.R. Labs in about an hour to help Cisco and Wally out with a speed test, you're welcome to come with me." He offered hopefully.
She smiled and nodded; "Ok, sure. That would be fun, plus we could go out for lunch after you're finished."
"Great! I'll get started on breakfast if you want to go get ready."
"What are trying to say Bartholomew? Do I not look good enough for you?" She teased gesturing to the outfit she had on from the day before.
"No you look beautiful I just meant, um-" Barry said flustered.
Kara blushed and placed a hand on his arm "Barry I was joking." She explained.
"Oh, right." He said with a chuckle as he cheeks turned pink. She laughed and headed down the hall. He went into the kitchen and got to work, occasionally running out to grab some more ingredients. Kara listened to the noises coming from the other room. 'What is he doing now?' She thought as she finished putting on her shoes. She took one last look in the mirror, she wore a yellow dress with tan heels and her hair was parted down the middle flowing freely as she moved. She walked down the hall, the noise finally ceasing as she approached the kitchen. She went in and saw a surplus of food stacked on the counter. She laughed in disbelief "Barry I though you were gonna make breakfast!"
He looked at her confused "I did."
She walked forward and looked at him "This isn't breakfast this is a production!" She laughed and sat down at the table. She loaded up her plate with as much of the food as possible and began to dig in. Barry chuckled and admired her for a moment. He sat down next to her and started eating as well. Both of them eating through the food rapidly. Barry finished and Kara was on her last pancake. Barry got up and made some coffee while he waited for her to finish. Suddenly he felt two arms wrap around him and her small frame against his back. "Thank you. " She said letting go.
Barry turned around and kissed her forehead "Anytime." He said as he handed her a travel mug with coffee and took his off the counter. "Ready?" He asked her, she nodded and headed towards the door with him close behind. They ran to S.T.A.R. Labs zooming into the cortex. They came to a stop and turned around to face Cisco and Wally.
"You're late" Cisco said
"You said 11:50" Barry replied
"I said 11:15!" Cisco corrected.
"Oh, sorry." Barry said scratching the back of his neck. Cisco just rolled his eyes and motioned for them to follow him down to the speed lab. "Hey Wally!" Barry greeted hoping to get a better reaction from him.
"Morning Barry. What's Kara doing here?"Wally asked, he sounded slightly annoyed but Barry ignored it.
"Oh, right! You weren't here when she arrived -" Barry started.
"No, I meant, what is she doing HERE." Wally said as they came to a stop at the speed lab.
"Look Wally she won't be in the way. I don't see why it's a big deal."
"Really? You don't see the issue with bringing the girl you replaced Iris with to our testing the day after your break-up?" Wally said crossing his arms. Cisco and Kara watched them argue from afar, neither knowing what to say.
"I didn't replace Iris with anyone, Wally. The break-up was Iris' choice."
"Her choi- HER choice?! Barry she broke up with you because of her!" Wally said pointing at Kara. Barry looked at Kara seeing her eyes gloss over. 'I knew I shouldn't have come' Kara thought to herself.
"I'm just gonna go then" She muttered quietly walking towards the exit.
Now Barry was mad he moved slightly to block Kara from Wally's sight, "Look I don't know what Iris or Joe or whoever told you that said but don't you dare blame Kara for something that wasn't her fault. If you don't want to admit that the break-up was Iris' choice, fine. Then blame me. Leave her the hell out of this. I don't even know why your sticking your nose in it in the first place." He spat. Wally was taken aback by Barry's outburst.
"Whatever," he mumbled "let's just get this over with." Cisco watched as Wally walked over to the start. Barry turned around to see Kara timidly returning to where she had stood next to Cisco. She looked at him worriedly but a small smile appeared when Barry just shrugged and crossed his eyes at her. He then joined Wally and they began running while Cisco monitored their speeds and vitals. Kara just watched in amazement as the streaks of lightening intertwined. Eventually Cisco called for them to come down. They both zoomed down and came to a stop in front of them. Cisco and Wally huddled around the computer going over Wally's stats.
"We're gonna head out if you don't need me for anything else." Barry said. Cisco and Wally stopped talking and looked over their shoulders at Barry and Kara.
Cisco looked at Wally who looked ready to say something. "No, we're good. See ya later" He said before Wally could say anything to provoke another argument from Barry. Barry nodded glancing at Wally before turning around and leaving with Kara. Wally rolled his eyes as he watch Barry disappear around the corner, already deep in conversation with the blonde girl about nothing. Wally knew he was happy, but he shouldn't have been, not when Iris was still in tears.
