I am changing the premiere dates to suit the storyline.

The Arrowverse family gathered around at Tom Cavanaugh's house to watch the premieres of all the new seasons. The actresses and actors welcomed the new actors and actresses, Nichole Maines, Jesse Rath, Jessica Parker Kennedy, etc. 

"Melinda, no, please don't eat that" Caity tried pulling the remote from Melinda. "Okay, who left the remote near the babies?" 

All the guys held their hands up in defense. Nick walked over and picked up his daughter, "You having fun with your cousin?" The baby girl gurgled.

"You okay, Mel?" Grant asked, placing his beer on the table she was leaning on. 

"I'm fine, just getting closer to the due date" Melissa rubbed her growing belly.

"Caity got a minor case of Braxton Hicks," Grant said, "Did your doctor tell you about this?"

"Yea, he just said there was not a lot to do since I was a few weeks from the cradle," Melissa said, "Can you grab my purse for me?"

"Yea" He walked off.

"The Flash episode starts in 5 minutes" Tom announced to the group. "Remember, the pregnant lady gets the most comfortable seat"

"Speaking of the seat, can someone help me sit down?" Melissa asked. Stephen jumped up and held her arm, guiding her to the large armchair Maureen had pulled in from the porch for her. "Ow, ow"

"What is it?" Maureen asks.

"Braxton hicks" Melissa sighed. 

"Ah" Caity nodded, "I hated that"

"Is she supposed to be eating that?" Chyler asked, Caity turned to Melinda and sighed.

"Melinda Katie Gustin, stop eating everything" Caity reached to take away the coaster Melinda had gotten hold off. "Grant, your daughter is eating everything"

"So when she does something sort of bad, shes just my daughter?" Grant asked, placing Melissa's purse next to her and picking up Melinda. "She's just hungry, do you have a bottle"

"I put some bottles in the fridge" Maureen smiled.

Melissa dug through her purse, pulling out her phone and texting her doctor about Braxton hicks. 

"It's starting!" Tom exclaims. 

The casts sat down, the TV began playing the first episode of season 5 of Flash. "My name is Nora West-Allen..." Melissa blanked out as pain ripped across her torso. 

"Melissa?" Stephen looked over, "What's wrong?"

"Its fine, just sitting on the pillow wrong" Melissa nodded, turning back to the TV.

The episode started coming to an end and Melissa was occasionally in pain. "When are we going to start supergirl?" Melissa asked.

"In a few minutes, why?" Tom paused the TV.

"I need some air" Melissa stood up and made her way to the balcony that overlooked the water, she leaned on the railing and took a deep breath before realizing something. "STEPHEN!"

The protective family members immediately jumped up and rushed to her aid. "What? What's wrong?" Stephen scattered to her side.

"My water... It just broke" The four people at her side took a step back to see the puddle at her feet.

"Someone start the car!" John exclaimed.

Olivia Caity Amell was, in her families eyes, a dramatic child and her birth fit that title to a T. 

Melissa's water broke at 9 pm, and after being rushed to the hospital, she gave birth almost 30 minutes after being checked in. Of course, doctors feared she wouldn't be fully developed, but nope, Olivia was completely healthy and was ready for her life.

In DC's Hall of History, Olivia's birthday (as well as the day of the premiere of Flash season 5 and Supergirl season 4) was given its own holiday. In over 40 comics, her birthday is mentioned as International Queens day, which is supposed to celebrate the Queens of the world, but fans from 2018 know its a reference to Olivia Amell.

Not only that but Olivia, Melinda, and Amelia Zano (I looked up Nick's kid's name but I don't think he's mentioned her name yet, so I just gave her a name I thought would fit her) got a comic issue dedicated to them during the Arrowverse reunion 20 years later labeled 'Iron, steel, and speed' which showcased their teen lives as daughters of some iconic heroes.

They truly were the dynamic duo from day one.

Melissa smiled sweetly down at her daughter, tears stinging her eyes as she caressed Olivia's head. "She so beautiful" Stephen smiled, "Can you believe we created her?"

"No" Melissa sniffled. "God, I'm going to cry again"

"Awe, Angel" Stephen kissed his wife's forehead.

"Hey, Look who came to visit" Caity walked in, holding Melinda, Leah walking in behind her with Amelia.

"Hey" Melissa greeted. "Look, Olivia, it's your new best friends Melinda and Amelia"

The small girl simply gurgled before watching as Leah and Caity sat down. Melinda, already 5 months old and Amelia, only a month old watched as the newborn stared at them wide-eyed. Only years later they would be dancing on set with their uncles, breaking hearts of any boy who dared look their way, causing trouble whenever wished, and becoming the Trinity of Trouble. 

But hey... that's a whole other story...
