Barry's POV:

Hey, this is Cammie. Sorry I couldn't pick up the phone, but if you leave a message I'll be sure to get back to you as soon as possible. Have a great day!

"Hey Cammie, this is Barry but I'm sure you already knew that... I was just calling to see how your liking Star City and Team Arrow. It's weird, you've only been gone three weeks but it's felt like forever... Iris was telling me about this new guy friend of yours, Logan she said. I'm, uh, glad your making new friends while your there. Call me back when you get a chance. Bye."

I angrily toss my phone on to the couch of my new apartment. Well I guess me and Iris's new apartment. I don't even know how we came to get a place together, I was looking for a newer place now that I could afford it and after I showed Iris this place, she decided that she loved it too. Now we share an apartment and live together... It's been great!

Sorta.

Nothing is unpacked so there is still a lot to do and with Central City being busy lately with criminals and meta humans, I haven't had much energy to unpack. Well that and I haven't slept well in the past three weeks.

Not since Cammie left.

Oliver calls me twice a week to update me on how she's doing. Lately he's mentioned her new friend, Logan a lot. Apparently, Cammie really enjoys spending time with him. I don't know why but I really hate that. Her spending everyday with some guy, a guy that she met in a club too. We don't know anything about him or what his motives are with being her friend. I mean, Felicity did a background check, after I begged her too, and he came up clean but that doesn't change the fact that he could be a danger to Cam. Especially with her spending everyday with him...

Why does this bother me so much!

"Barry, are you ok?"

Spinning around I'm met with the worried face of Iris. Apparently I had started pacing back and forth in front of the couch.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just got something on my mind... Why are you so dressed up?"

She's wearing this fancy red dress and her hair is done up in some intricate style. Even though this might be one of the nicest things Iris has ever worn, I don't feel overwhelmed by her appearance. It's like I'm not looking at my girlfriend,  just a friend.

But I'm sure it's nothing. That's just how I've felt the past few months we've been dating. It's why I kept talking about how amazing Iris looks, to try to get that old feeling back. It doesn't mean anything though, I love Iris. I've always loved Iris.

"We had a date tonight, remember. Dinner at the new restaurant downtown and then a walk in the park. You told me about the reservation, like a month ago, you were so excited."

Last month... Cammie and I had lunch at a nice restaurant and she said that it would be a great place for a date...

"Right! Dinner, um... give me two seconds to get dressed and then we can go."

I quickly speed to the bedroom and put on the tux Cammie picked out for me for the policeman's ball last year. She had gone as my date since I didn't have the courage to ask Iris and we had the best time.

She looked perfect that night... I must miss her a lot, I'm starting to think of her so weirdly.

After speedily putting my tux on, I stop in front of Iris again and hold out my arm for her to take.

"Alright let's go!"
