WestAllen short stories #2

Bella Notte

Barry was very excited. Tonight was the night that he was going on a date with his crush. He couldn't believe it. He'd been waiting so long for this night. He had knocked on the door of the house of his crush, Iris West.

She came out looking as beautiful as ever. Ready? Barry held out his hand for her, and she took it. He was taking her to a new Italian restaurant that just opened in Central City. When they got to the restaurant, they took their seats and looked at the menu. Excuse me for one second. Iris said as she got up and went to the bathroom. I hope you don't mind, but I ordered for you. Barry said when she had returned from the bathroom.

A few minutes later, the waiter returned with their food. Spaghetti and meatballs. But it was on one plate.  Which meant they had to share. They dug in to the savory food. They ate until there was only one meatball left. There's only one meatball left. Here, you can have it. Barry smiled as he moved it over to Iris. Thank you. Iris blushed.

As they continued eating the spaghetti, neither of them noticed that they were both chewing on the same string. As they ate, their heads moved closer and closer until eventually they found themselves kissing. While blushing, Iris slowly pulled back as she broke the string of spaghetti.

After dinner, Barry had walked Iris back to her house. Thank you for tonight. It was great. Iris smiled. Barry leaned in and kissed her.
