"So you're a metahuman too?"
Caitlin made a weird face. "I'm more like an experiment that my dad did. But my powers are similar to that of metahumans."
"Well okay." you were still trying to wrap your head around everything. After meeting them you made regular visits to S.T.A.R. Labs, especially after finding out they worked with the Flash. You wanted to help in any way you could. So whenever you were off at the hospital you'd drop by.
Harry strutted in with his head buried in a book. "Ramon I need you to-" his head raised upon entrance, catching sight of you. "(Y/N)." you brightened.
"Hi Harry." Caitlin watched the exchange in silence. She couldn't help but smile at how you always glowed when Harry entered the building. Maybe you didn't even realize. There was also a different gleam in Harry's eyes when he saw you. One of respect, that was for sure, but there was something else. Something she thought almost impossible for Harry to show.
"What were you asking for?" Cisco interrupted. His eyes were looking on the screen as he twirled a lollipop in his fingers.
"You know Cisco, your daily intake of candy is really high. According to my observations if you keep it up you'll have-"
"Nope! Not listening, not listening!!" he shouted, popping the sweet back in his mouth as he plugged his ears.
"I'm just saying." you mumbled. Caitlin gave a pat. "Trust me I've tried."
"You seem to be coming by more and more. Surely the hospital isn't that boring." Harry observed.
You wanted to be an asset to Team Flash, that was for sure. But there were ulterior motives behind your visits. Ones you'd never disclose to Harry.
Before he could question further someone came running in. You were almost thrown off your feet at the force of the wind. Whoever it was grabbed you, taking off. When your feet hit the ground again you almost fell. The person grabbed your shoulders keeping you upright.
"Woah, sorry about that. I guess I should have given you some warning but this was urgent." You turned to the scarlet speedster with a smile. "At least now I can say I rode with the Flash at least once." he led you to where he said there was someone injured. You noticed the girl that wasn't moving, you couldn't even tell if she was breathing.
"I was coming back from my patrol and I just found her in this alley. I have no idea what's wrong. I know I should have gone to the hospital first but if it turned out to be something they couldn't handle it would be hard for you to get close without others seeing you use your powers. " You understood. When you were close, you kneel in front of her. You did a preliminary check first, looking for open wounds, bumps or bruises. When you couldn't find any you held your hands over her body. They glowed and eventually a golden energy seeped from her body into yours. You grunted when you felt a burning in your chest. You lungs felt like they were being squeezed.
"Asthma! " you gasped out. It didn't take long for the girl to start breathing normally again. She coughed, groaning as she started to sit up. Barry looked back at you worried when he saw you struggling to breath. You waved your hand, telling him to get her to the hospital. He was gone in a gust of wind. You sat there trying to regain your breath. Your airways felt like they were closing in on you. When the familiar feel of wind hit your face you looked up. Barry lifted you off the ground, taking off with you.
In a matter of seconds you were back in the cortex. He placed you on a bed and everyone rushed to your side.
"What did you do Allen!" Harry accused. Barry shook his head.
"S-She helped a girl with asthma. Now she's like this. I had no idea what it was so I asked (Y/N) to help her."
Caitlin started plugging machines to your body. You pushed her away. After a few moments you started to let out regular breaths. "I'm fine." you sighed out pressing a hand to your chest.
Harry looked pissed. "You can't just go around blindly healing others. I told you metas have limits. What good can you do if you're dead!"
His tone made you a bit angry. "It's my choice what I choose to do with these powers! You can't tell me what I can and cannot do!!" you were furious.
"You're a doctor (Y/N), I'm sure you know what happens when the body is constantly placed under stress. "
"Because I am a doctor I also know that when the body is introduced to a certain amount of pain constantly it adjusts. How do you think people improve when exercising? Our body is built to handle a certain amount of pressure. That's how athletes condition themselves. It's the same with me. You think I don't know what I'm doing. I've been at this longer than you think. I've run every test, every experiment. So don't stand there telling me what I'm capable of!!" you and Harry were full on screaming now. The three other people present in the room were a bit terrified to get involved.
"That doesn't mean you aren't getting affected just listen to me!!" He bellowed.
"WHY THE HELL DOES IT MATTER TO YOU WHAT I DO WITH MY BODY!!"
"BECAUSE I CARE ABOUT YOU!!" you froze at his words. He took off his glasses, looking to the side as he massaged his temple.
"W-We'll just go, you guys look like you have a lot to talk about." Cisco said awkwardly. He didn't even use the exit. He opened a breach and Barry and Caitlin followed jumping in without a word. When they were gone you looked back at Harry. He still wouldn't look you in the eyes.
"In the short time that I've known you, I've come to regard you dearly. It's admirable what you do." His words warmed your heart. From the moment you met him you felt like he understood what you'd been going through. Even that story about your past. You didn't make a habit of telling strangers about yourself, yet something in those blue eyes made you want to place your trust in him.
You walked over, placing your hands on his cheeks as you raised his head to look at you. You could see the worry, the dread in his orbs. As much as he liked to put up a tough front you could tell. He'd lost people too. He knew what it was like. Maybe that's why you both were drawn to each other.
"I can't promise you that I'll ever stop helping people Harry. It's been graded into me, that's all I've ever wanted to do. What I can promise is that I'll be careful. From now on I'll try to limit how regular I use my abilities if it can be avoided. Sarah is almost completely recovered. When she is I'll take a break and let my medical degree do the work." he smiled at that.
"I feel as though that would be a challenge in itself." you giggled.
"It will be, but I have to try. So don't look so worried." He closed his eyes for a moment, just relishing in the feel of your palms on his skin.
"I guess I can live with that." he mumbled.
"By the way, what you said earlier sounded strangely like a confession. Did you have a crush on me this entire time." He pulled back with a scoff.
"I'm Harrison Wells, I don't get crushes." You laughed. "That's too bad, guess I'll just have to give this kiss to a Harrison Wells that does get crushes." He blinked.
"I mean..I'll admit to having strong feelings towards you.." he bargained. You just giggled. He really was too proud for his own good sometimes. You leaned up on your toes pressing a kiss to his cheek.
"I'll take it. "
