Katrina laid in her bed tossing and turning, a mixture of strange dreams plaguing her, of the man in yellow chasing her. Quickly sitting up in her bed, her body shaking she decides to get up and get herself a drink of water, hoping to clear her head. Grabbing her robe, she gets out of her bed, wraps it around her body and leaves her room heading for the kitchen, trying to be as quiet as possible to not wake Barry. She heads to the kitchen, getting out a glass and filling it with water, she hears the shuffling of feet and sees Barry entering the kitchen, in just his sweatpants and no shirt. Katrina feels her face flush as she quickly looks down, "couldn't sleep" Barry asks her.

"Yeah, thought a glass of water would help" she says.
"Yeah I can't either" he says as he comes closer to her, to get himself a drink as well.
"Want me to put a movie on and just hang out on the couch, maybe it will put us to sleep, it's done it before" she suggests.
"Yeah, umm do you want me to put a shirt on though?" he asks her.

"Uhh, that's up to umm you" she says as she finishes her water and heads to the living room. Katrina goes over to her shelf to find a movie to throw on, and picks one out.  Once she puts the movie on, she sits down on the couch and waits for Barry to join her, seeing that he did decide to throw a shirt on.
"The Wizard Of Oz" Barry says to her seeing it start on the tv.
"Yeah, it's a classic" she smiles as he sits down beside her.
"I can agree with that" he says as the two of them move closer to one another, hoping to fall back asleep.

Katrina woke up feeling an arm wrapped around her, and a body laying behind hers.  Opening her eyes she sees that she is back in her own bed, rolling over she sees Barry beside her. He slowly opens his eyes and smiles at her, "Morning, you feel asleep right after Dorothy went to Oz, so I brought you here, and I crashed right after, I hope you don't mind" he says to her.


"No, umm, not all" she says her face flushing, "I just hope this doesn't become a habit" she quickly says

"No, umm, not all" she says her face flushing, "I just hope this doesn't become a habit" she quickly says.
"I don't mind" he smiles back at he, as he then reaches out and brushes a strand of hair on her face.

"Umm Barry, we should probably get ready, talk to Joe and Dr Wells, we can swing by Jitters for breakfast" Katrina says as she moves away.
"Yeah, yeah we should" he says as he then gets up from the bed.
"I'll meet you in a few seconds" she says to him.

"Oh, you think you can change faster" he smiles back .
"Yes I do" she smiles back, and he then takes off. Both speedsters get changed, within seconds, and both appear in Katrina's living room at the same time.

"Damn, it's a tie" Barry says to her.
"Race you to Jitters" she smiles at him, as she grabs her bag and takes off for Jitters.

Katrina gets there first before Barry, and grabs them coffee, when Barry meets with her, smiling as she passes him the drink. "Hey you two" they then hear Iris say and they share a look like they have been caught doing something wrong.
"Iris, uh hey" Katrina says to her.
"Hey, I stopped by last night, and you weren't home Barry?" Iris says to him.
"Umm yeah I was at Kat's last night, and we umm we feel asleep watching movies" Barry tells her.
