"Now we know his motives..." Cisco said leaning back on the rolly chair. "Now what?"

"We promised Emilia protection, we can't directly involve them again," Julian replied.

"But the thing is that we know who he is now," Barry responded. "No matter how much I want to, I'm not fast enough to beat him. And I don't think anything I do will help me beat him unless I do something bad, like take V9 or use the negative speed force. The best thing I can try is try to use what we know about him to talk."

"Really?!" Charlie remarked.

"What?" Barry replied.

"You're gonna try and have a heart to heart with a psychopath?" Charlie said.

"Do you have any other ideas?" Barry responded with a slight aggressive tone.

"Anything with less of a risk of just letting him walk away," Charlie replied in the same increasing tone.

Before Barry could respond, Cisco intervened.

"Guys stop! Do we really have to say this again. God Speed wants us to fight. Everything he does doesn't make sense together but it's all stuff we have to try and fix and stop. Plus... how do you think Caitlin would feel if the only two guys in her family that she had left, and loves so much, hated each other."

Barry and Charlie backed off eachother.

"We all want to stop Godspeed to protect the city, and to protect Caitlin and the twins. How we do that? I don't know yet. None of us do... but arguing is going to fix nothing," Cisco finished.

A moment passed and Charlie held out his hand in front of Barry, "Truce?"

Barry nodded and took Charlie's hand. "truce," he replied shaking his hand.

After making peace with Charlie, Barry  went into the time vault while everyone else went off to their own thing. Ever since Barry had escaped the speed force, he would sneak into the time vault to read and watch the notes on speesters the late Thawne had left behind. He was desperate to find a solution to this.

Hours passed and Barry speed read pages of notes and watched videos of his arch enemy's on triple speed, until he found it.

Barry got home late, everyone had already left the labs by the time he had left. Entering the upstairs hallway he stood in front of the nursery and leaned on the door, silently thinking to himself. 

After a minute, he turned to enter his and Caitlin's bedroom. He found her already asleep, bundled up in the whole blanket. Once he got ready for bed he laid beside Caitlin, looking at her sleep so peacefully. He wish he could make her feel like this all the time. He hoped that once all this was over, she would be at least safe.

...........................................................................

The sun shimmered through the glass window into Caitlin's eyes as she woke, she saw Barry glaring at her.

"Morning beautiful," he said softly. "How you feeling?"

"Like the whole world is against us," she replied, "and that I need a double cheeseburger and large fries from Big Belly Burger."

"One of those I can help with," he replied. "The other... I'll try my best."

She smiled softly at him, cupping his face, feeling like the rest of the world melted away. "I love you," she said.

"I love you, too."

She turned so she was on her back and she put her hands on her stomach. Barry slid closer to place a hand on her stomach too.

"They're awake now too," Caitlin said, "their kicking, feel it?"

"Yeah, they're strong. Just like their mom," he replied, earning a wider smile from Caitlin. It was nice to see that after a while.

Caitlin slid her hand on one side of her stomach. "There's little Henry Ronald Allen," she said then sliding to the other side, "and here's Nora Dawn Allen."

Barry smiled, "they're perfect."

Wanted to end on a little sweet moment there... Sorry I haven't updated in so long, and for the short chapter. I swear I will try my best to update more in these following summer months. Once this story will end though, which probably won't be for a bit, I will be doing EXTENSIVE editing. Just to give a heads up.

What did ya'll think?
What is Barry planning?
What did ya'll think of the baby names? Wanted to take from the comics, but change it a bit for a Snowbarry storyline.
