You are the one

Chapter two

Flashback
Eddie felt both excited and nervous at the same time. Today is the day he started working at the police station, his dream is being fulfilled. He hoped he would do justice to those who needed help and put criminals behind the bars. "Help Officer" screamed a voice behind him, he quickly turned around to help. But to his surprise, it was his best friend Barry just pulling his leg. "Barry, what was that for"? Glared Eddie to Barry for making him edgy. "Relax, i was just making sure that you are ready for this job. Not to mention my parents invited you for celebratory dinner for getting the job. So be there sharp at eight clock. Mom and I are making your favorites." Answered Barry with a smile on her face. Barry, his best friend who meant more than anything and her family who treated him as a family member how did he get so lucky? It's a question he asked himself each day, his own family only cared for their own social status and looked down at other normal people. No wonder he is known as the black sheep at his own family, they never cared for his dreams and they didn't treat Barry much better when she comes to visit or for sleepovers when they were young.
He was supposed to meet his partner in the police station and on his way he bumped into someone. He quickly mentally groaned because he is pretty sure that he made a bad impression of himself and he should have really watched where he is going. But the moment the person who he bumped into looked at him, his entire world stopped for she was the most beautiful person he had ever seen apart from Barry of course. Had he have been in love before? Perhaps, but he was pretty sure he found the One for him. He can hear Barry's voice teasing him. Later he found out that the girl who captive his heart name is Iris West and she was his partner in crime and one of the best detective in the entire station. He had finally gathered his courage and asked her out and to his surprise she said yes. Soon they started dating and everything was following to pieces and Barry teased him about his love life. He endured her teasing with happiness and soon to his surprise, Barry has found someone too. They both are happy for each other and hoped they will live happily ever after with their partners.
One day, Barry suggested him for a double date where they can meet both of their partners over dinner and movies.
Eddie was thrilled with the idea and accepted it without any doubt, Iris would meet the most important person in his life apart from her. On the day of double date, Barry messaged him saying her date cancelled because of sickness but she would be there since she is eager to meet the girl who stole his heart. Her words not his own, he hoped that Barry would like her and soon they headed off to the restaurant where he made reservations.
But alas, how his own happiness got crushed and stomped on. He never thought it would happen but it did. What happened was when they went to the restaurant and sat at the booth waiting for Barry. When Barry came and saw Iris she introduced Eddie as her girlfriend but Eddie thought Barry was joking and told her that Iris is his girlfriend. Soon they started arguing revealing that Iris dated both of them. When they finally realized that Iris two timed them, they broke it off with her and went home. There and then they made a promise never to mention Iris ever again. So when Barry's parents asked them about their partners, they say it didn't work out.
