Like Lightning and Water | Barry Allen x Reader

Barry Allen was awkward. That you knew.

If it wasn't for the quick remarks he makes, or the adorable faces he pulls when he's concentrating, or the bad habit of spitting things out when he's not supposed to, you might have just remained good friends.

He loves you, and you love him, but what's stopping that love from forming a bond?

You've got a bad habit of altering people's emotions, making them feel whatever you want them to feel with just a swish of your hand, and you're not sure if he's truly feeling what he thinks he is.

There's something awfully wrong between you and Barry, and you want to fix it before your love runs away - literally. There's only so much time that can be spared to decide, and you want to know now.

You're like water, and he's like lightning. The electric part of your life you want to keep, but things can only go so far before you get shocked.

(Sorry for the puns, I couldn't help myself.)
