Iris was in her room reading a book. When she heard a noise by her window. She ignored it and continued reading. After a few seconds, she heard the strange sound again.

"What the hell!" Iris shouted. It was Barry Allen crawling through her window.

"what the hell are you think you are doing!"

"That's not how friends greet each other" Barry said as he looked around her room.

"We are not friends, and what the heck are you doing in my room?"

"I wanted to show you this." He replied as he pulled out a crumpled piece of paper. Iris took the paper and a smile lit up her face.

"That's amazing Barry you passed your math test!" Barry smiled.

"I couldn't have done it without you Iris, most people just give up on me but you didn't and I appreciate that." Iris couldn't help but smile maybe he was not as bad as she thought.

"your welcome Barry"The two smiled at each other awkwardly till Barry said 

"Well I shout get going, I don't want your dad to catch me in your room not that we were doing anything" His face getting red he started walking to the door. without really thinking Iris blurted out 

"My dad is never really home and I don't have a mom." Barry turned around.

"were dose he go?" Iris hesitantly replied.

"he is either at work or at a bar drinking but I don't even know why I am telling you this you probably don't understand." She sat down on her bed her eyes on the floor.

"Actually I do, Barry said as he sat down next to her.

"My parents died when I was 13,I bounced around a few foster homes and then landed in one at Central City."

"I am so sorry" Iris mumbled "I shouldn't have assumed that you didn't go through any tough times." 

"it's fine, you know what through your the only person who knows the truth"

"same" Iris replied They sat there for awhile enjoying the silence there thoughts thinking the same thing "why?"  After a few moments, Iris's eyes started to water. Barry looked at her and carefully put his arm around her while she rested her head on his shoulder. It was nice for both of them to be in each other's arms. They found comfort in each other Soon the sun started to set and Barry got up.

" I should probably head home." Iris nodded

"um wait, Iris said thanks for sticking around you were a great friend"Barry smiled 

"I thought you said we weren't friends" Iris laughed softly 

"People can change their minds" oh yes they can.

The next chapter will be longer I promise.I also hate preciving Joe in this way because I know that in the show that he is a very nice and caring character but in this fanfiction,He will not be.
