Truth be told, Caitlin Snow was rather excited to meet three new versions of Harrison Wells that had been his friends for months now. She was curious of the all the differences and similarities she could find and whether they would be just as overbearing like the man himself. She still found funny the expression she spotted on his face when she told him she wanted to go see them with him. Poor guy was probably jealous to which she quickly assured him that he was the one and only Harry Wells for her and she didn't want to date his doppelgangers, no matter how charming they might be. Maybe in the end she should lose the 'charming', she decided, still seeing him slightly on edge as he activated the holograms and they waited for the men to show up.
So far the thinking cap hadn't proven itself enough and after the accident Harry had had in the time vault – Caitlin still wasn't over that – she absolutely prevented him from ever wearing it again. That was also the moment she couldn't help but reveal her true feelings for him. In fact, it was a blessing in disguise since he happened to feel the same way, but he was afraid. Now, after quite a rocky start, they were finally dating, but they hadn't gone as far as doing more than just kissing. There never seemed to be enough time as they still had to figure out a way to stop DeVoe, especially after Ralph had sacrificed himself for the whole team. DeVoe was now back to his original body thanks to Dibny's powers and they still had no idea what his plan might be. That was why they called upon the Council of Wells. They simply ran out of options and this was the one clue Harry had managed to gather from Gideon before effectively frying her and almost his own brain in the process. Caitlin still shuddered at the very thought of it.
Ok, she then thought when looking at the two Wellses who had so far appeared and finding them more irritable and silly than Harry could have ever been. That was a good thing, she decided, because now he would definitely not feel jealous.
Only then the third Wells popped in and her mouth opened widely as she couldn't truly control her reaction. Because ok, his face was creepy and she frowned at that, slightly appalled by all the metal, but then… then her eyes traced down to the strap of skin between his pants and the strange armor he was wearing and… she felt color hitting her cheeks because this man just had the most tantalizing v line she'd ever seen in her entire life and…
"Snow," Harry's impatient and rather angry voice reached her and she finally shook her head before meeting his eyes.
"Ye… yes?" she asked hoarsely and then he was the one to shake his own head as he sighed heavily.
"Seriously? See, I knew this was gonna happen! I am standing right here and you're gawking at my doppelganger!"
"I'm not… I'm just…" She froze, feeling all the pairs of eyes in the room now focused entirely on her. "Oh, for God's sake! All right! And so what?! I wasn't looking at him! It just occurred to me that you are exactly alike when it comes to your physique…" Oh, God, what had she gotten herself into, exactly? She suddenly thought, seeing that he frowned and folded his arms over his chest, waiting to hear more.
"Oh, please do not let me stop you. Please, continue," he encouraged her.
"I can't say this in front of them all," she suddenly lowered her voice, desperately trying not to look at Wells's 2.0. v line and think what was lower. The fact was that it wasn't even that doppelganger that she wanted to explore said territory with. She wanted Harry. All of him. And suddenly she discovered it would even be better than she imagined.
"Is this your girlfriend?" one of the Wellses asked. "Do you think we all could maybe find a version of her in our worlds?"
"I got one," Wells 2.0. surprisingly said and all of them looked at him, including Snow and Harry. "What? I dress to impress. She loves when I'm wearing this! You should try it, man," he then spoke directly to Harry. "You clearly see just now what miracles it can do!"
Harry rolled his eyes and then he actually buried his face in his hands, groaning.
"Can we maybe start on the issue that is the most important at the moment?" he eventually asked.
"But what can be more important than banging a gorgeous lady?" the long haired Wells just asked. "And hey!" He turned to Caitlin. "If you're desperate to see more…" His hands reached to his pants and that was when Harry groaned again and quickly spun Snow around.
"Ok, enough!" he growled in his doppelganger's direction. "I'm taking her out of here!" And he pulled her to the corridor.
Once they were alone, she actually burst out laughing to his astonishment.
"Is this really so funny to you?!" Harry sounded appalled.
"Oh, yes! Yes, it most definitely is!" She actually had tears in her eyes because she couldn't stop. So he waited patiently, his arms again folded over his chest. "Harry, seriously, you know me! You know I would never lust over them! They are so… so inadequate when it comes to you! You are everything I see, ok? I just can't help being a little frustrated because our relationship doesn't move forward at all."
"Oh, so you want to jump into my bed, is that it?" he asked teasingly, actually pretty amused by now.
"Is that so bad? I mean… I know that right now we have DeVoe on our minds and Ralph is dead and… oh, I just want to be happy for a change, ok? And every time you're near…" She didn't finish because he was suddenly cupping her face, kissing her fiercely and deeply.
"That," she gasped against his lips when he stopped, their foreheads pressed together as they were still breathing heavily. "I need that. And…" Her hands traced down his stomach and he suddenly froze when he felt her fingers finding that v line she'd seen on his doppelganger. "Oh, yes," she murmured against his lips before she kissed him again. "I want this, too."
He had half a mind to just take her to his room and forget all about his annoying doppelgangers, but he knew he couldn't. The whole team depended on them now, so he did the only thing he was capable of – he chose compromise.
"Why don't you go to my room and I'll be there as fast as I'm finished here?"
"Oh, you got yourself a deal, mister!"
AN: We'll see in a month how right or how wrong – which is more plausible – I actually am…
