Keeping it together {Snowbarry}

Fight/ flight

(Hehehe. I bet you guys are gonna be super shook about this)

Later...

Barry now laid on his back, staring at the ceiling.

Caitlin was sleeping quietly with her head resting on his chest. She was exhausted, while he was buzzing with energy, or anxiety.

"Cait..." he shakes her arm gently.

She grumbles for a few moments before tiredly opening her eyes and smiling.

"Is it morning already?" She rasps out then he shakes his head and kisses her forehead.

"No, not yet... I'm gonna go for a run, okay?"

Caitlin nods sleepily and removes her head from his chest.

He climbs from the bed and dresses in some jeans and a shirt then he covers her once more before speeding out of the house.

He comes to a stop at star labs. He looked around the empty hallway and makes his way to the cortex.

Nothing on his mind besides the creature in the window.

He should tell the team... they would know what it is.

What if it's nothing, what if he's going crazy?

"What if it's real and it's coming for you, Barry?"

He looks around swiftly, the raspy voice ringing in his ears again

"Are you? Real?"

"As real as Lucas... as patient as death.."

Barry firmly closed his eyes at the mention of his unborn child.

He would fight tooth and nail to keep them safe.

"Don't speak about my family"

The voice laughs coldly

"Your family is a joke..."

Barry scoffs then he speeds out of the room, refusing to listen to this voice spill lies.

It followed him through the hallway, then up to the rooftop.

"Your mother was murdered...your father went to jail for it..."

he shakes his head letting out a dry laugh "just leave me alone! I already know this!"

"You fell in love with your Adoptive sister..."

Barry steps up to the edge of the roof. Looking down at the empty side walk. Maybe a thirty foot drop.

"Do it Barry..."

The voice was a low rasp now. It growled in the back of his mind.

He could jump now and end this torment.

He would finally be at peace.

Or

He could step back. "No. Jump. They don't need you anymore, Caitlin doesn't need you anymore"

He could go back home and talk to her about this.

"Barry jump-"

-Tell them about everything-

"Do it! Do it now!"

About the nightmares and the figures.

Mindspace-

"Do it now and save yourself the pain. Save yourself Barry!"

He shakes his head sadly. The tears practically threatening to spill onto his face.

"No.. I won't" he steps back from the edge and he looks around the dark night.

"I tried to save you... I tried to warn you Barry..."

The voice fades out and then a loud warning sound in the back of his mind.

It progressed into a headache.

"Gahhh!" He groans while stumbling backwards.

It comes to a sharp stop then a light buzzing before a complete silence.

"What the hell was that?" He gasps out.

"Run"

So he did.

He sped off the roof, towards the house.

The sun would be up soon and he wanted to be there when his fiancé woke up.

That word instantly brightened his mood.

Fiancé.

He sped back into the house and stripped of his clothes, deciding some underwear would be good Incase her daughter woke up.

She makes a small sound in her sleep before wrapping her arms around his waist and falling back to sleep.

He sighs through his nose, Looking out the window again.

The blue lightening danced around the figure. A taunting smile on his hooded face.

"You're going to wish you died in the tornado"

Barry shakes his head.

"I'm glad I lived... my family needs me... Caitlin needs me" he gently rests his hand on her back.

Blinking a few times to see the figure disappear with an ominous laugh.

***

When he woke, he was laying on his stomach.

The smell of breakfast was fresh in his nose.

He smiles slowly then he climbs from the bed, heading to greet everyone with kisses and hugs.

"Caitlin?" He calls as he jogs down the steps.

"In here" she responds and then he heard the sound of the stove turning off.

"Good morning mr. Barry!" Madeline chirps.

He smiles, placing a kiss on her forehead then looking up to Caitlin.

He stares at her scraping the bacon onto a plate then he sighs contently. His heart felt a little less heavy, his world a little more full.

"I love you.." he said with the softest tone he could muster.

She side eyes him with a blush then she smiles approaching him. "I love you too..."

She kisses him twice on the lips, though he wanted more "let's just elope..."

She raises her brow then she lets his waist go and brings Maddie her plate. "Barry... I want our friends there.. Cisco? Wally? Jesse?"

He nods quickly then he follows her to the table "yeah.. well we can take photos and have a person record"

She shakes her head once "Barry, come on"

He sits next to Madeline "Cait, I love you... I want you to be dr. Caitlin Allen"

Her cheeks flushed and Mads looks up at her interested.

"What if I want to stay as dr snow? Would you change your last name to snow?"

He opens his mouth to say something then the doorbell rings twice.

"To be continued..." he mumbles as she walks towards the door.

She opens it, seeing a woman with auburn hair looking around quietly.

"Uhm Hey, can I help you?"

The woman looks back to Caitlin and she gives a small smile "yes I'm looking for my son... Barry Allen?"

Caitlin stares at her, confused then she looks behind her as Barry stand up his eyes wide as well

"mom?"
