DISCLAIMER: I do not own the office.
MUST-READ: When the Music Meister put Barry and Kara in "comas" Mon-El wasn't in the story yet. Barry and Iris weren't together. Cisco figured out some scientific way to get Kara and Barry out of the musical. This was all before Kara and Barry were together.
On the fifth month of their separation from each other, Barry visited Kara's world.
A breach opened on the head of the conference table. Out came Barry with a shocked look on his face.
"Hey, sorry, I didn't mean to come here, I was trying to get back to my earth. So, I'll be on my way," Barry explained.
Kara nodded her head and they all watched as Barry raced up the stairs and around the DEO. He kept running and running but nothing happened. He stopped and took his mask off. "What's going on?" Winn asked.
"I-I, I don't know," Barry answered scratching his head.
Suddenly, Music Meister appeared out of thin air. "Hello, Flash, Supergirl, everybody else," Music Meister said.
"Hey, Meister," Barry said with a small smile. Barry was actually fond of the Meister. Even though he used twisted ways, he was for the good guys.
"Can I talk to you, privately?" Meister asked.
"Yeah, sure," Barry said walking over to his "room".
"No, I mean like out of earshot," Meister said.
"Edge of the city?" Barry asked knowing Kara can hear far but not that far.
"I'll meet you there," Meister answered.
Once they both got to the edge of the city, Meister turned to Barry and asked,"Having trouble getting to your earth?"
"Yeah," Barry said suspiciously.
Meister laughed and said,"Maybe that's because I locked you out of your world."
"What?!" Barry shouted.
"Now, you have to figure out how to get back," Meister said disappearing without a trace. All Barry heard was "put a little love in your heart".
Barry raced back to the DEO. He changed out of suit and threw it to the floor and shouted.
He flopped down on the bed.
Kara wanted to go on but sent Alex instead. She nervously opened the see-through door and asked, "You okay?"
"He locked me out! He locked me out! How am I supposed to get back?! That's stupid son of a-" Barry started but got cut off.
"Barry, slow down. Locked out?" Alex asked.
"Music Meister locked me out of my world and left me to figure out how to get back," Barry said frustrated.
"We'll help you, Barry," Alex said. "Anyways, we're all going out for a nice dinner tonight, want to come?"
"No, I don't think so," Barry said shaking his head.
"Can I ask you something?" Alex asked.
Barry nodded.
"Is Iris a rebound?" Alex asked.
"N-," Barry took a deep breath,"Yes."
Alex patted his shoulder and walked out.
Alex told everyone that Barry wasn't joining them which everyone understood why.
Kara frowned and floated over to Barry's "room". "I hear you're not joining us for dinner?"
"Yeah, just not in a formal type of mood," Barry said not looking at her.
"I don't want you to be by yourself," Kara said.
"I'll be fine. I have my credit card in my wallet I have for here. I have clothes in your room so I'll be good. And I'll watch the office in my room at the DEO. I'm set," Barry said finally looking at her.
"Please," Kara begged.
"Kara," Barry sighed.
"I would hate it if you were by yourself," Kara said. Barry opened his mouth to argue but Kara talked first. "You even have a tux at my place," Kara reasoned.
"Fine," Barry agreed.
Kara's face lit up and he smiled.
A couple hours later they were all at Kara's apartment waiting on Barry. "Barry you're the fastest man alive how are you the last one to be ready?" Winn called out.
They just heard a thud. Kara flew over to the guest bedroom and saw Barry struggling with his tie. Kara giggled and helped him up.
"Stupid tie," Barry said, his voice muffled because of the tie covering his mouth.
Kara tied the tie still giggling at Barry. "Thanks," Barry said then noticing what Kara was wearing. "What?" Kara asked.
She was wearing a black strapless dress with a slit up her right leg. Her was straightened and she had dark eyeshadow and eyeliner on under her glasses. And had high heels on. Very un-Kara like.
"N-nothing," Barry said. He was very weirded out by her appearance. She didn't look bad, but didn't look like herself.
They walked out of the bedroom and Barry mouthed behind her (Mon-El not noticing) "What is she wearing?"
Kara and Mon-El walked out first Alex walking next to Barry. "She's been changing ever since Mon-El said something about her clothes," Alex explained. Barry furrowed his eyebrows but continued on.
After they were seated they ordered their drinks. (seating chart next 3 lines)
Lucy Winn Mon-El
(heads of the table) Barry Kara
James J'onn Alex
Barry couldn't help but stare at Kara, not for wanting but trying to figure out why she was changing.
"Hey, can you not stare at my girlfriend?" Mon-El asked taking hold of Kara's hand.
"I've stared at a lot more than that, just saying," Barry said sipping his drink.
Kara's face turned red and Winn almost choked on his water. Everybody trying not to laugh except for Kara and Mon-El.
"Why are you staring at my girlfriend?" Mon-El asked.
"Because she's not herself," Barry said simply.
"What?" Kara asked, readjusted her glasses. "I like my outfit."
"Really? You told me you hate long dresses because you can't move your legs as well, you hate straightening your hair because it takes long, you don't like dark makeup because well-it's dark, and you hate high heels because they make your feet hurt," Barry said smirking at Mon-El.
Kara's face turned bright red and she secretly smiled. "I'll be right back," Kara said walking out of the restaurant. In just a few minutes she was in her seat wearing her red shift dress with white flats her hair naturally curled, light makeup, and of course her glasses.
"Kara, you know I really like you in the black dress," Mon-El said smirking at Kara then at Barry.
"I l-like this dress better ac-actually," Kara stuttered nervous it would make her mad.
Barry had the cockiest smile on his face which he flashed at Mon-El.
Alex covered her mouth from laughing. Kara kicked her sister under the table playfully.
Barry gave a reassuring nod to Kara's nervous look. They continued on talking about how Mon-El and Kara met making Barry quiet and mad.
"And what would you like, sir?" The waiter asked.
"Nothing actually, thank you though," Barry said handing the waiter the menu.
Everyone had a confused look on their face.
"I uh, lost my appetite, I think I'm just going to go home," Barry said standing, apologizing to everyone.
Barry walked out but talked to himself, knowing Kara could hear.
"I'm sorry, but I just, I can't," Barry said.
Kara turned around and saw Barry through the window. She gave him a nod.
"I'm going to go to your place and grab my stuff, I'm gonna just go to the DEO," Barry said. Kara nodded and again and he took off.
Barry got to her apartment and he collected his stuff. He was walking out and saw her birth stone over her door. Barry smiled to himself and went to the DEO.
