Lovin the speed

Just met a spark

Barry POV :

Central city. Ahh what a wonderful place. Though a lot of horrible things happen in this city I am here to help. I am the fastest man alive and this is my story.

It started when I was only 11. I was always on the run especially from bullies and sometimes I would get away but sometimes I didn't. But today, today was different. I fought the bullies and surprisingly I won! My mom and dad were proud of me but told me never to start a fight and I agreed with them. That night I fell asleep peacefully only to wake up by a loud noise. I heard my mom screaming so I ran out to where it was coming from and what I saw terrified me. There in the middle of the living room was my mother on her knees surrounded by what seemed to be a ball of light. But what really scared me was the man I saw standing within it. I tried to identify it but in a blink of an eye he was gone.

I remember vividly when by father said to run. He told me to run as fast as I could, but I didn't want to. Then suddenly I was a block away from my house and I didn't know how I got there. When I arrived back at the house there was a swarm of police cars out front. I saw my dad being pulled towards the police car in handcuffs. I shouted for him thinking "Why were they taking him? He didn't do anything". He told me to stay outside but I just couldn't I had to go see if my mom was alright. I didn't expect what I saw. Lying there in the middle of the room was my mom in a body bag. Suddenly all I could do was sob and that's what I did all night. From then on I lived with my best friend and started looking for who actually killed my mom.

Now 14 years later I'm working with The CIA as Forensic Scientist . I work in a lab above the police department. Today I was called to a crime scene to find out who killed a man. After that was done I headed back to the lab to do some testing on some evidence we picked up. What a tiring day it was today but the bright side is that Star labs is activating the particle accelerator!!! And guess what? I'm going with my best friend Iris , I've had a crush on her since forever but I have no chances now since she's dating Jo's assistant. And no I'm not jealous pffffft why would I be jealous? Anyway that's where we're heading now. I had to explain what this was to Iris because apparently she doesn't appreciate science like I do. I was snapped out of my inner nerd when Iris started yelling for someone to come back with her purse. I took off running after them but was soon out of breath and when I thought he was gonna hand it over he hit me with it and ran. God damn it Barry you suck! (JK he just thinks that).

Soon enough I heard Iris yelling for me "BARRY! Are you alright? What were you thinking you could have gotten hurt." I told her I was alright and went back to the lab to rest. I was surprised by the harsh storm that started after about twenty minutes of research. I tried to fix the leaks and right when I was under the glass part of the lab I was struck by lightning. All I could feel was excruciating pain and then all there was, was black. I don't know how much time had passed but all I know is that there was this really annoying beeping sound and i really want it to stop. All of a sudden I shot up and was gasping for breath. I looked up and saw a girl and a boy staring at me. Turns out I was in a coma for the past 9 months and now I have an incredible new power. Speed. I guess I just got that from how much I ran when I was a kid. But back to the story, That is what happened over the 14 years after my moms death.

Now, in the present I help central city with bad guys. But for now I'm on my way to see my favorite coffee maker, Iris. And no I did not sigh dreamily. When I got to Jitters, I was met by a new worker. And let me tell you, this boy was beautiful. His honey colored eyes, chestnut brown hair, pale face that's dotted with moles, and to top it off a cute little grin. "Hey welcome to Jitters", OMG even his voice is amazing. "Thanks, you're new here aren't you? My friend works here so I know just about everyone here. My names Barry" I started the conversation saying eh why the hell not. I learned that his name was Stiles and he was from Beacon Hills California, and that's how our hour long conversation started and quickly I became aware of the butterflies in my stomach when he laughed. Or the way my heart sped up when licked his lips. Realization hit me so hard It was like I was hit in the face with an iron rod. I am slowly starting to fall for this guy that I literally just met an hour ago. Every thing about him just draws me and I'm freaking out. Just this morning I was in love with my best friend, but now I'm falling for a guy I met less than 2 hours ago. Man my life is really weird. I was brought back to the world by my phone ringing. Guess what? Another meta human on the loose.
