Amelia's POV:
Age 16
One new text from Barry:
'I can't make it today. Iris has a paper due and I said that I would help, sorry'
I can't believe it, this is the fourth month straight that Barry has canceled our Doctor Who marathons. And every time it has been because of her, Iris West.
Each time he cancels I have to remind myself that even though Barry is my best friend, I'm not his, not anymore at least. Iris is. And anyone with eyes (except for Iris apparently) can see that he is hopelessly in love with her. I hate her with every fiber of my being because she stole him from me. Every one thinks that Iris and Barry have been best friends FOREVER, but he was my best friend first.
Our moms used to be best friends in high school, and they became pregnant around the same time. So when we were growing up Barry and I were very close. But then when I turned six my mom died in a car accident, Barry's mom died just two years later. Barry needed a foster family once his father was wrongfully sent to jail but my dad wasn't even considered once Joe volunteered, because apparently, judges trust cops more. After Barry moved in with Iris and started to fall in love with her, we drifted apart. I mean we are still good friends but he would rather spend time with her than me.
Well his text just set the tone for today's mood, bitchy with a high chance of sarcasm.
