Love Triangle

Good bye

Lily: Babe where are you?

Len: I'm on my way. I got caught up with a few things.

Lily: Okay. Well I'll see you in a few.

Lenny had been acting a little weird today. I'm not sure what's going on. I went into my kitchen and made something to eat while I wait for him.

After eating, I waited another hour and he still wasn't here. I got impatient so I decided to take a nap.

*****

I woke up to the feeling of arms around me. I turned around to see Lenny laying next to me.

"You're here." I said.

"Yea sorry I took long. I had things to do." He apologized.

"That's fine," I mumbled as I closed my eyes again and laid my head on his chest. He left a kiss on the top of my head.

We spent the rest of the day together but Leonard kept checking the time like he had something to do. I ignored it and instead enjoyed our time together.

*******

I opened my eyes expecting to see Leonard next to me but he was gone. I reached for my phone and saw a message from Barry.

B: call me as soon as you can. It's important

I called Barry, worried that something bad happened.

L: I just saw your message Barry. Is everything okay?

B: Are you with Snart?

L: He was with me last night. I don't know when he left. Why?

B: Can you meet me in my lab?

L: yeah I'll see you there

I quickly got ready and made my way to CCPD. I sent Leonard a message asking where he was at and then walked into Barry's lab.

"Hey Bar."

"I need to talk to you about Snart." He said. "He's after me."

"What do you mean? He was just with me yesterday. Basically all day."

"He wants a fight with me and I just don't know what to do. Wells says I should just ignore him and hope he backs off. I need advice from my best friend." He explained. I smiled and grabbed his hand but then I frowned when I remembered the position I was stuck in.

"This is weird." I said

"Yeah totally weird. I just really don't know what to do and it's stressing me out. There's another meta with super speed and he's dangerous. Wells thinks I need to keep my attention on him."

"Let me try dealing with Leonard first and I'll tell you how it goes." I suggested.

"Thanks Lily." I smiled, gave him a hug and then went back home. I tried to reach Leonard again but couldn't. I called a bunch of times and sent even more messages. This was all getting to complicated to handle. Just as I was giving up, my phone rang. It was Leonard.

Lily: Leonard what the hell is going on?
Leo: calm down. Everything is okay.
Lily: no nothing is okay. You left without telling me and then I find out you're after the flash. This is all too much Leonard.
Leo: what are you trying to say?
Lily: this was a bad idea. I think we should break up.

Leonard was silent.

Lily: Lenny?
Leo: if that's what you want then alright. Goodbye, Lily

As soon as I hung up, I dropped on my bed and cried. I really wish things weren't this way. I wish my boyfriend wasn't trying to kill my best friend. I stayed in bed the rest of the day watching movies until I got a call from Cisco.

L: hey cisco. What's up?
C: you do realize your boyfriend is trying to kill Barry and he kidnapped Caitlin right?
L: What? Where are you?
C: we're tracking down their location trying to find Caitlin. I was just calling to make sure you were okay. Stay home, we got everything handled.
L: be safe, Cisco. Love you
C: love you too

There was no way I was going to stay home knowing that Caitlin could be in danger and Barry could be a popsicle. I got an alert on my phone. It was an article about Barry, well the flash. I checked their location and got there as fast as I could.

I saw police and a ton of people surrounding the scene. I saw Iris within the crowd.

"Iris you shouldn't be here." I said.
"He's real Lily." she replied looking at the flash.

I wanted to go and help Barry but we were surrounded by police. They would probably lock me up for being a meta. Barry got hit by Leonards cold gun. Eddie grabbed a shield and ran to cover Barry. He barely got there in time. I watched Barry in confusion as he walked slowly towards Leonard and Mick. He got hit by both their guns. I tried to run towards him but Eddie and Iris held me back. Barry sped away which caused the guns to cancel each other out. I sighed in relief. It was part of his plan to get hit.

Leonard and Mick were arrested. I went to the precinct with Barry. Everyone was there cheering that both Leonard and Mick were arrested.  My breath stopped when I saw Leonard coming closer to us. I stood closer to Barry and avoided eye contact with Leonard.

"I guess this is an even weirder position for you?" Barry asked.

"Not really. I broke up with Leonard as soon as you told me he was after you." I said. He looked at me with sad eyes but I could tell he was fighting back a smile.

"Go ahead Barry. You can say it." I said.

"I'm not gonna say it. I'll let you get over the break up and then I'll say it." I playfully punched Barry and laughed. He opened his arms and I accepted his hug.

*****

The next day I was with Barry helping Iris and Eddie move. Once we finished I sat on the couch next to Barry.

"Wanna order some pizza and watch the ball game?" Joe suggested.

"Make it pizzas and you're on." Barry said. "You know if you ever need somebody to come and eat your food, I'm there. Besides the laundry machines at my apartment have been broken for like a month."

"I suppose it would make sense to move back in. I mean I am a millennial. That is what we do"  He sped out and came back with his stuff. We helped him unpack and just had a fun time together.

"Hey Barry? Can I stay with you tonight? I don't want to be alone." I asked.

"Of course."
