She had received the phone call offering her a job at STAR Labs exactly one week ago and honestly, it was the longest week of her life. After graduating at the top of her classes she was naturally drawn towards STAR Labs as a potential employer but the speed at which they accepted her was amazing. She was absolutely floored but her excitement also came with a great panic. What would life at STAR Labs be like? Would she make friends? Would there be other women there? The majority of Caitlins female peers had applied for jobs but as far as she was aware she was the only one who had been accepted at STAR Labs.

She walked into the massive glass doors at the entrance of the building and paused. She didn't actually know where she was supposed to be going. She had to meet with Dr Harrison Wells, the resident genius, as he was her assigned mentor and boss. She made her way slowly over to the reception to make an inquiry but the receptionist was missing. Caitlin sighed and checked her watch. She had literally ten minutes until the meeting was scheduled and being late on her first day was NOT the first impression she had in mind.

She stood at the reception for another minute. She began to bite at her lower lip and she could feel her stress levels rising when a man appeared from nowhere beside her.

"Hey there." The man said politely, "You look worried. Can I help you?"

She looked at the man. He was tall, muscular-built and incredibly handsome. "Uhh yeah actually. I don't suppose you could tell me where I could find Dr Harrison Wells? I have a meeting with him like now." She said in a rush.

He smiled and replied, "Yeah. I can take you straight to him. Follow me." He led her to the elevator and continued. "So Dr Well huh? Are you the newest member of the team? I think I remember him mentioning something about a newbie." He winked. "I'm Ronnie. Ronnie Raymond."

He held his hand out and she shook it quickly. "Hello Ronnie Raymond. I'm Caitlin. Caitlin Snow. And yeah, today is my first day. Hence the being lost thing."

Ronnie laughed as the elevator doors opened and he allowed Caitlin to leave first. "That's okay. I couldn't find my way around here for the first month. That's a lie actually, I still get lost in this damn maze." Caitlin giggled while he led her towards the main lab.

"Well I hope I can get used to it quickly." She responded. They arrived outside an office door and Ronnie knocked politely. The door was opened by a dark-haired man in a suit who Caitlin instantly recognised as Dr Wells.

"Hi Dr Wells, I found the newbie in the lobby and decided to deliver her personally." Ronnie winked at Caitlin. "She's nice so try to keep her with us, eh boss?" He spoke directly to Wells, giving him a cheeky grin.

"Thank you Ronnie." Wells replied. Ronnie nodded and waved goodbye before disappearing around the corner. Caitlin watched him go and decided that if the people here were as helpful as him then she just might be able to make it through.
