Caitlin pov
Needless to say that I did not go back to Joe's house after what happened between me and Barry.
I went home and told Barry to say I wasn't feeling well and that I decided to just go home and get some rest.
Liam called an hour or so afterwards asking me where I was and I had to tell him that I left the party earlier because I wasn't feeling well.
He offered to drive to my house to keep me company but I insisted him to stay there and enjoy himself to which he reluctantly agreed too.
I expected Dawn to come back home but when I got home she wasn't anywhere in sight. Instead I found Barry sitting in the living room couch as he stared at the tv blankly, the tv wasn't even on.
"Hey" i greeted shyly walking in and I hear him mumble a soft 'hey' back but not turning to face me.
"You know we didn't even held hands until the 5th of June of 2021" he commented in a jokingly taunting manner making my cheeks heat up from embarrassment
Of course he knows. He is future Barry, so he got those new memories.
Oh my gosh he saw me making out with him in a alley.
"Please don't tell me you saw i—"
"Saw it? No Caitlin. I felt it. His memories are my memories because anything that changes in the past changes in the future" He explains turning his head sideways to meet my eyes while giving me a small grin.
"So your memories are also his? Does he get to see your memories?" I asked curiously but trying to change the topic.
"No he can't, because he hasn't experienced them yet." He smiled at my attempt to divert the topic.
"This so so embarrassing" I said shyly placing my hands over my face to hide from Barr's gaze.
"Why? You know I am Barry just an older version of him. But I am him and he is me. We are the same. I am not a multiverse version of him, I'm just an older version of him" he chuckled shaking his head at my uncomfortableness.
"I know I know" I mumbled my cheeks still red from having to face him.
"You guys are still two different people. I mean yes you hours are technically the 'same' Barry but you guys are completely different" I replied with hand gestures.
"Well that's because I'm a lot wiser, mature, and less stupid" he joked smirking at me.
"You're kinda right" I laughed and he laughed with me.
We fell into a long silence as I was overwhelming myself with horrible thoughts and scenarios of what would follow.
"I know it may not have been the best ideal way to get me to admit my feelings for you, but I least I said them. I would've definitely gone a different way about it but I can't change what this version of me decided to do" He encouraged comfortingly.
"I just can't help but feel like a horrible person. I mean yes we knew that we would 'end up together' but I just didn't picture it to go down this way. Iris doesn't deserve this. Wrong is wrong and I shouldn't have made out with a married man" I said guilty looking at him and he gave me a emphatic frown.
"Barry shouldn't have put you in this position. But if it makes you feel any better; in my version our first kiss was after our third date" he grinned with a small glint in his green eyes.
"Wow. So not only are you smart, but your chivalry is uncanny?" I joked with a low chuckle.
"I guess so" he laughed lightly.
"Maybe you should speed up those traits of yours since everything seems to be happening a lot sooner than the original timeline" I challenged with a smirk.
"I'll have a heart to heart conversation with Mister Barry Allen very soon do not worry" He confirmed in a serious tone.
"We are long overdue for a talk" he added more lowly this time.
"Bring part of team Flash is truly is the most mine baffling experience of a life" I determined shaking my head in amusement
"Who knew a nine month comma would lead us to this huh?" Barry exclaimed with nostalgia.
"As horrible as it sounds, I am really glad lighting struck you that night" I smiled at him.
"Trust me Cait, me too" he smiled.
I decided to order some pizza while changed into my pjs.
Both Barr and I got comfortable in the couch and decided to rewatch yet again a Harry Potter movie. We both laid next to each other on the soft cotton couch. As my back rested against the firmer section of the couch, Barr rested his head on top of my legs while dragging a soft blanket to cover him and my lower body.
We ate and laughed for hours watching movies together before we both fell soundly asleep.
