|| Promise || Zach Herron

I'll come running home to you..

Lizzy:

Today the day... Daniel and I run for reverse flash.
I don't know how to feel because I am pregnant and I don't know if this will hurt the baby. Zach has been bugging me not to go but I've told him I have no choice, Daniel's life depends on it and of course Zach took it the wrong way.

- Flashback -

"Zach I have to do this, Daniel's and possibly my life depends on this" I say motioning to myself. He looks at me and shakes his head "so what you love Daniel now?" I scoff and start yelling "I don't love Daniel like that! I still care about him as much as I care for you Zach!" He looks at me "you guys have been spending so much time together, even out of work." I squint my eyes at him and step closer "it's because we were running around town trying to find out a good place to time travel for this run"  Zach takes another step closer "is that baby even mine?" I widen my eyes and step back from him "w-what? Of course it is Zach! Are you really saying I cheated on you, with Daniel? " he nods and I take my hand and slap him right across the face "I love you. You are my husband Zach" and with that I run out of the house.

- End of flashback -

So yeah, not really talking to my husband at this moment. It's not Daniel's baby whatsoever, nor do I have feeling for him in that way. What really hurt me is he had the audacity to ask me if the baby was his. I slept in the guest bedroom last night because I did not wanna be around him. I am sitting in my closet look at my wedding ring, the words engraved. "I'll come running home to you" I smile and run my finger over them gently. I take a deep breath and I put it on Zach's nightstand with the note

      " I don't wanna loose this today. I'll be home as soon as I can. I love you and forever will Zach

- Lizzy "

I kiss Zach on the forehead, I go over to the door and I look behind me one last time to look back at him. He looks so peaceful right now, I just don't wanna break his heart if I don't come home. I love him so much, I would hate to leave that boy heartbroken.

I run to S. T. A. R. Labs and I see Daniel in there saying goodbye to all the guys, even Zach somehow. I hope that makes sense, maybe, possibly, and okay. "Lizzy!" Jonah says running up to me and crushing me in a hug "be safe" I nod and I hug Corbyn "I love you Liz" he whispers "I love you too bean" then jack "noodle!" I yell and he laughs "make sure to stay safe and come back home to make me ramen." Then Zach. He walks up to me and just engulfs me in a hug "I love you so much Lizzy. I can't tell you how sorry I am. I just had so much stress about me not being a good parent and I just let my thoughts get to me. I want you to be safe and I love you so much Mrs. Herron" I smile and look at him and kiss him " love you too Mr. Herron" I smile and I get into my suit and I hug Caitlyn and Cisco "thank you for everything" I walk over to Daniel and we both look back at everyone and run off.

We run and run until we enter the portal to where the reverse flash currently is and I see him running around and just setting up his little plans. I run over and I stand in front him "HEY!" I yell and he looks at me "Well well well isn't Lizzy Quick. Also know as Elizabeth" I step back and Daniel comes running over. "We wanna make you a deal" He says and the reverse flash laughs "what's that?" I step forward "a race me and you. If I win you leave me and my family alone. If you win, y-you take my power" Daniel looks at me and whispers "what are you doing?" I shake my head "deal?" I say putting my hand out. "Deal."

Daniel runs over to the other side of town and on three we do a countdown.

"Three" I say and we take off.

I start running and running and I put everything I have into and I pay no attention to Reverse Flash. I look up and I see him in front of me. I scream and push myself for my husband, my mom and dad, and my baby. I don't wanna see him win. I push through and as soon as I cross the line I fall to the ground, panting. "Did I win?" I ask looking up and I see the reverse Flash just crossing the line

I won
