CHAPTER 1:
It all starts in the dark. The rains pours, lightning and then the brutal noise of thunder. it seems so stupid. I'm The Flash, how can i tell anyone I'm scared of lightning…. and thunder. Maybe it was a child's fear that turned into real fear after the accident that made me the flash. That's like a joke within a joke, The Flash is scared of what made him The Flash. How pathetic. I haven't slept in 3 days. It's 6am and other than the fact that the weather is escalating, nothing has changed. I know damn well that quivering and tearing up in a corner won't help but what options have I got. Either tell Hal what's happening or tell the league. I choose option C, none.
Going the watch tower at 5pm was all but okay for Barry. Everyone had already realized that something was off about him. He wouldn't really act as perky as he did in meetings and he wasn't eating at all. Even Bruce, who never really cared, was worried. probably because he was jeopardizing their missions by being there. Barry took a seat next to Hal in cafeteria. he had a large espresso in his hand. Hal turned to face his friend and ask the question on everyone's mind "what's wrong Barry?" he casually said. Barry looked up taken off guard and bickered, saying: "u-umm… n-nothing Hal".
Hal was getting curious so he asked if he could come over, more like he insisted on staying the night. As Barry got up to leave Hal grabbed him arm and said he'd be there by 8pm. Not knowing how to reply he just grimaced and nodded. Barry slowly walked to a zeta-beam and he teleported to an alley near his apartment in Starling City. While walking he checked the time, it was 6:30pm. As awesome as his friend Hal was, he didn't want him to come over, let alone stay the night. What if he learned his secret? All the world would know about it. Just before reaching home, Barry went into a convenience store to buy some of Hal's favourite snacks and some frozen pizzas.
Barry's P.O.V
I got home by 7pm, it was getting dark and so i turned the tv on to the weather forecast. "60% chance of precipitation huh?" Life couldn't get any worse could it? I sat there playing every possible scenario in my head. They all ended with Hal finding out. Not good, definitely not. I need to keep myself busy. Barry got up and walked to the kitchen where he had placed the now defrosted pizzas on the counter. removing the boxes and wrappers of the first three and placing them in the preheated oven. He poured the assorted snacks into different bowls. He then checked the time, 7:50pm, "oh shit, I need to change into something that doesn't smell!" Barry said. Damn how could I only have 10 mins left. Barry fumbled upstairs, as fast as a speedster can, and he cleaned and changed into a tight flash shirt with baggy pants, as comfortable as it gets. The clock hit 8:05pm and the doorbell rang. Barry fell down the stairs with a loud thud, crashing into a lamp and breaking it.
Hal's P.O.V
"thud.. thud.. thud… CRASH!" Hal leaned in closer to the door and said "Uh… Barry.. Are you okay?" About three seconds later, the door flew open and inside was a panting Barry Allen. With a bunch of cuts all over his hands and a bruise on his face. Hal leaned in and looked around. He then asked Barry "Dude… What kind of villain were you fighting?" Barry huffed and said "...I.. wasn't…. fighting….a villain.." blush creeped onto his face. Hal was the taller of the two and always thought of his best friend as "cute". He is bisexual and so he has always had this undying crush on Barry. Barry walked in and went into the kitchen, leaving Hal to enter and make himself comfortable. He sat on the couch and looked over to Barry who was shaking slightly. "aww..shit… Bear what's up?..need some help?"
Before Barry could protest, Hal was standing next to him, taking dished out of the cupboard and taking the pizzas out of the oven. Barry just stood there and watched. he was discreetly rubbing his cuts with one of his hands. Hal turned around to face a very zoned out Barry. "Barry...Baer…..Barry" nope not a flinch. He then grabbed the speedsters hand and he shook in surprise. "H-hal…. what a-are you doing?" Hal gave Barry a light smile and dragged him to where the weather forecast was still on. Barry sat while Hal went to grab the pizza. He returned with three delissio pizzas, two plates and some pop. Hal set everything down and looked towards the tv. "Barry, are you an old man? who watches the weather forecast?" Unable to hold his laughter Barry, smirked then covered his mouth and laughed hard. "I thought you'd never laugh" Hal said.
They watched Green Lantern who was played by Ryan Renold. "Was that not awesome? huh…" "It was amazing Hal, only if you looked as good as he did.. tsk..tsk…" "Woah Barry, no hating, specially on the real deal." They both chuckled and Hal was right about to grab Barry and give him a kiss but he obviously stopped himself. "Self restraint Hal.." "did you say something hal?" Barry asked. "Nope, nothing bear." It was 10 pm, when it started raining. As soon as Barry heard the drops and the splashing. he froze up. Hal noticed and his curiosity was officially going up. What was wrong with Barry? As soon as Barry saw Hal's face he went back to normal, or at least he tried to conceal everything. Barry saw that Hal wasn't paying attention to what he was saying, as he knew how curiosity got to Hal. He decided it was time to sleep. "Hal.. I'm.. uh.. kind of tired.. I'm going to go sleep, you can use Wally's old room."
Barry wore his pjs as slow as he could and tried to control all the emotions that were welling up. There was lightning, but not thunder yet. Mother nature was onto Barry for some reason. About half an hour after saying good night, Barry arose from the noise and the rumbling. Tears running down his face and quivering, he got up and started walking towards the bathroom only to fall over his own foot. Just as he reached the bathroom door, he reached up to grab the doorknob only to have the door fly open. Barry's heart dropped. it was a joke, it had to be, he made sure Hal was asleep. As another bolt of lightning went up, Barry whimpered and slowly looked up to see a worried Hal. "N-no….uuuhhh...this can't be happening" Barry ran as fast as he could into his room where he locked the door and slid down the door, leaning on it. Sitting in a crouched position, Barry buried his face into his own knees. Hal slowly walked towards his door. he could hear the footsteps and he knew he was worse than dead.
"Bear open the door, why were you crying?.. what happened?" Barry told Hal he was okay but Hal wasn't about to give up. Barry then shuffled slowly toward his closet. away from the lightning and most of the thunders noise. As he was about to make his way into the closet someone grabbed his ankle. Barry swung around to see Hal. "H-how..d-did you g-get in?" Hal smirked and showed his ring "If i wasn't able to get into a place like this I'd be dumb as hell, wouldn't I?" Barry signed wiping away the tears and sat down staring at Hal for what seemed like forever. "what's got you so scared bear?" great just the question Barry wanted to hear.
Barry looked at Hal with eyes that looked like they couldn't take it anymore. Another 15 mins passed before Hal sighed and got up. "Okay Bear, I'll leave if that makes it any better." As Hal walked towards Barry's bedroom door, another flash of lightning hit hard and it was followed by thunder. Barry pounced up and grabbed Hal's waist, quivering and shaking as he whimpered. Shocked by what Barry had done, Hal finally understood what was wrong. The Flash was scared of Thunderstorms. Now it all made sense, the weather forecast and with all the thunderstorms Starling City had, had these three days. Barry hadn't slept. Hal turned around and picked up barry bridal style. "sniff sniff.. w-wait Hal, w-where are we going?" "To my room or Wally's" Barry wrapped his arms around Hal's chest and whispered "Thanks Hal… for saving me…." Hal looked down at the frailer man. he had never seen Barry like this. They reached Wally's room and soon his queen size bed. Hal put Barry down onto the bed and later he joined him. At first Barry was panting loudly and so Hal grabbed Barry's head and turned towards him. Barry was reluctant first but Hal said :Just relax i won't do anything to you and sleep." Barry nodded and nuzzled closer to Hal's neck. Now he felt at ease, not even the thunder was bothering him. The both slept soundly.
Hal woke to the smell of his favourite, bacon and eggs. Hal got off the bed and was walking down the stairs when he realized that Barry had music on. He had JRDN's "your love is like magic" on. He was wearing the apron Hal had bought him. The one with green lanterns all over it. and what's more is he was singing and dancing to it. Hal covered his mouth but a small chuckle escaped. Just as soon as Barry heard that chuckle, his head did a 180 to see Hal standing at the bottom of the steps. Hal thought to himself: aww he's just too cute. Barry fidgeted around and avoided eye contact at all. "You know I actually loved your singing and dancing… could i by any chance see it again?" Barry turned around to see Hal with a huge grin on his face. Barry's face went from pink to beet red. "n-no you can't, s-shows over." "aww but bear, it was just getting good." Barry took in a deep breath and shook his head in a horizontal way. "oh come one, Barry. It was cute how you were swaying your hips and.." Before Hal could continue Barry was standing over his head cover his mouth while burning up from embarrassment. Before Hal could remove Barry's hands, Barry looked into Hal's eyes and whispered "...Thanks Hal for letting me s-sleep with you yesterday…" Hal removed Barry's hand "no problem.. but you know we really didn't sleep with each other.." Barry went from blush covering face all the way to blush all over his neck and ears. "y-you ass, you know what i meant.." "oh did I?" Barry grabbed a plate and gave Hal His breakfast.
As Hal was eating he asked Barry "Yo Bear, what happened yesterday as I was knocking on your door?" Barry looked up "Oh.. well.. I fell down the stairs and broke a lamb.. but no biggy" Hal started laughing uncontrollably "I knew speedster were clumsy but you just hit an all time record." Barry blushed "Shut up Hal!" Hal looked at Barry and hoped that they'd always be like this. The problem was Hal's secret. He had started by having a crush on Barry but after that night it all changed, he was starting to love him. "Barry can never know of this? or he won't trust me ever again" These thoughts kept Hal's mouth shut for the rest of breakfast. For Barry it was waiting in anticipation for when Hal asks him about yesterday night.
