[Caitlin]
To say Caitlin was feeling awkward was an understatement
She was avoiding Barry at any cost and tried her best not to think about what happened the night before.
She was perfectly aware of what went down between them and was super embarrassed at what was said
'But you liked it, didn't you'
No, I didn't
'It's okay to admit it'
I can't admit because it's not true
'suRE Jan'
Caitlin shook her head to get rid of her inner voice and got ready for her class. Barry had already left, which relieved her and Natalie was nowhere to be found. Caitlin's headed to her class and Jessica stopped her on the way.
"Hey, Caitlin."
"Jessica, it's good to see you."
"Where'd you go last night? I saw you coming in with Barry, and you guys danced. I loved your costume. And coincidentally, it matched with Barry's."
Caitlin wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. Suddenly, the feeling of Barry's hands in her hair as he kissed her deeply replayed in her head.
Jessica knew what had happened, but she didn't want to tell Caitlin that she knew. She wanted Caitlin to tell her.
"I wasn't feeling too good. I think it was the punch."
"Ohh. Okay."
"I should get to class, but I'll see you later?"
Jessica gave her a smile. "Yes, of course."
The two said goodbye and Caitlin sighed when she was out of earshot. Caitlin was blushing hard as her mind replayed everything that happened with Barry the previous night. She found it hard to concentrate in class, but tried her best to do so. After class, Cisco had met her halfway to her class and looked concerned.
"Why didn't you tell me you had a sister, let alone that she goes here?"
"You met my sister?"
Cisco nodded. "She was wearing a Star Wars costume last night."
"She's a big Star Wars fan. But yes, I do have a sister."
"What happened to you last night?"
"I left. Wasn't feeling too good."
Cisco nodded suspiciously. "Right."
The two began to walk to her next class and for a second, Caitlin forgot about what happened last night for a little while
Once her class was finished, she went to the cafeteria to grab some lunch to eat on the way when someone had stopped her. They turned her around and when Caitlin saw who it was, she didn't know what to say
"Simone."
"Hi."
[Barry]
His lips were on hers and his fingers had found themselves in her hair
There was a fire inside that grew with each kiss they stole from each other
Somehow, she ended up on his lap and his hands were on her waist
His lips were now on her neck
He left love bites
And she returned them
"Barry?"
Barry jumped in his spot as Natalie glanced at him. Caitlin was still asleep and it was just him and Natalie awake. It was early in the morning, and Barry had gotten ready early because he wanted to avoid running into Caitlin
"Are you okay?"
Barry nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Natalie started at him as he glanced back at Caitlin. He remembers them together, and then when he sat her back down and ran away
He felt ashamed, embarrassed and downright guilty for pushing her away like that
But he didn't even know how to approach this situation
"Barry!"
His eyes met Natalie's and she gave him a look
"Is this about last night?"
"W-What about last night?"
"I saw you two were kissing. Then I left."
You don't know the half of it, Natalie
'Are you going to tell her what happened?'
No
'Because you feel awful, but yet you liked it'
I didn't
'Oh, but you did. Your time in the bathroom last night said otherwise.'
Shut up
"Did you not like it?"
Barry snapped out of it and sighed. "Natalie, what happened between your sister and I just made things complicated. So I really just don't want to talk about it anymore. Okay?"
"Got it. Won't mention it again."
"Thank you. I'll see you later then?"
"Yeah. Bye, Barry."
"Bye, Natalie."
Barry grabbed his stuff and headed out to his class
On the way, Barry was stopped by someone
"Barry, where were you last night? I wanted to dance with you."
"I left. Didn't feel like dancing too much."
"But you danced with Caitlin."
Barry could sense the jealousy in her tone. "Because I wanted to dance with her. I have to get to class. Bye, Iris."
Without hearing her next words, Barry walked off to his class
