Summary: A Christmas mission, a flirty ice queen makes a certain speedster realize his true feeling for STAR Lab's resident doctor.
Cisco would admit that Barry Allen, his best friend, can face anything. The man has super speed, intensely brave, and a good man. Throughout their years of friendship, he has seen Flash overcome anything that was thrown their way.
From an evil speedster that vibrated his hand through Cisco's chest in an erased timeline (but he still felt a twitch near his chest when remembering it), capturing an oversized man-shark wreaking havoc in their city, stopping world war between two super Gorillas, saved the universe many times, helped a time traveler squad, Supergirl and the Green Arrow, and even face an evil version of himself.
He was also a hero, even without the red suit. Barry saw the good in everyone and tried to make everyone around him happy and feel loved. He also helped Cisco in many ways, cheering him up during his worst times, helping him in his romantic schemes, and just being a great and wonderful best friend.
But today, Barry Allen was facing another formidable foe, who seems to have no plan on backing down. Cisco believed that he can defeat this foe, yet a thought in Cisco's head, He can beat anything or anyone, meta humans or psychopaths but never an uptight and frosty doctor.
"If you just followed the plan, as we all agreed on before you flashed out, you could've avoided getting injured and beat up by Striker." Caitlin Snow huffed and glared at the man whom she was currently "patching up".
An exasperated sigh escapes the mouth of the man in the red suit, "Well, I didn't know he could make my world spin like Vertigo and then one punch me which felt like my supersonic punch but 10x stronger."
Caitlin rolled her eyes and walked away from him, finished in cleaning the wounds and forming some ice for the large bruise because of the one punch.
Barry Allen looks at her, "Cait, look, I'm fine." She didn't answer him and just continued working on her computer, ignoring him and giving him the cold treatment.
Cisco was sitting across the two, watching intently and wishing to have a popcorn beside him. Harry was writing something on their board, looking busy but was actually listening to Snow and Barry.
He groans and changes into a black Star Labs shirt and joggers. "Now, we know that Striker just doesn't have increased power in his knuckles but can also induce vertigo." Harry says to Team Flash who simply nods
"How about changing his name to… Iron Fist!" Cisco suggested with a grin causing Barry to chuckle and a small smile to appear on Caitlin's face.
She looks at Cisco, "Why don't you ask the reckless and careless one, if Striker's punch felt like that or much much worse." Caitlin finished a bit icily and stared at Barry, who runs his hand through his hair.
He looks at Caitlin with such intensity, "Wow, thanks for the synonyms, Elsa." Caitlin looks at him sharply while Cisco gulps and looks at Harry, He called her Elsa. Both of them knew not to call Caitlin that especially when she's at her furious stage.
The two continued looking at each other intently, Cisco almost admitting that he can see a line of spark between the two. "You got to stop being so worried about me. We've been doing this for years now, Cait!" Barry says with a frown, sounding a little bit harsh.
Caitlin looks at him, "Oh! I'm sorry for always and forever worrying about my best friend, who is always risking his life for the city. Sorry for not getting used to it and just ignoring the bruises and pain he felt because of being The Flash."
She ends and gets her leather jacket from the chair in the medbay and exits the room, leaving a trail of ice from her spot. Barry runs his hand through his face, completely frustrated and exhausted.
He speeds out of the lab leaving Cisco and Harry, staring at each other. "That was intense." Harry sighs and puts the cap back on his pen, "Those two are just having some misunderstanding. Tomorrow, everything should be back to normal. Let's call it a night, Ramon."
Harry leaves the room while Cisco sighs and leans back on his swivel chair, arms behind his head, I hope he's right.
~next day~
"Should I add this to the rare moments of you making a mistake?" Cisco asks teasingly causing Harry to elbow his side lightly. They were beside each other, watching Barry trying to find more things about Striker; who miraculously has gone silent.
From time to time, they would notice Barry look at Caitlin, who was at the Medbay organizing her already neat and organized flasks and papers. The two haven't talked since their clash last night, ignoring each other.
Barry sighs and continues to do his work in their computer while Cisco walks to him and tries to help. Harry goes back to reading the details about Striker on their board while Caitlin was inside the Medbay looking at the papers she was organizing.
"You want to talk to her, huh?" Cisco asks Barry who was staring at the lab's floor. He shakes his head and looks at him, "What?" Cisco chuckles and points at Caitlin while Barry sighs, "Yeah. But clearly, she doesn't want to."
Cisco rolls his eyes, "Of course she won't, she's Caitlin!" Barry chuckles, "Anyway, she can be cold and hard to approach but if you keep trying, she'll eventually melt." He grins at Barry who laughs and smiles, "Thanks, Cisco."
Suddenly, an alarm sounded inside the room, the four of them quickly gathering near the computer. Caitlin tried her best to distance herself from Barry, who pretends not to notice it.
"Looks like, Mr. Preston is throwing a Christmas Ball party tonight." Harry says, reading the newspaper flashed on the screen.
"And we know that Striker, a.k.a. Ferdinand Lux, has a vengeance on Mr. Preston." Caitlin concludes while biting her lip.
"Wow. It's the most wonderful time of the year to have revenge, ruin the party and probably Preston's face." Cisco said and looks at Harry, "Seems, you're not the Grinch this year." Barry chuckles while Caitlin shook her head amused and Harry ignores the remark.
"Well, I guess we're going to strike Striker tonight!" Barry said while Cisco nods and bumped fists with him. Harry nods, "The two of you can ambush him, now that we know more about him."
Caitlin looks at him, "Three. I'm coming with them." She says confidently while Cisco nods and Barry shakes his head.
"No, it's too dangerous." He looks at her with concern. "No. Like you said last night, Barry, I should get used to this. Besides, I think my frosty roommate would love to have some action tonight."
And as if it was magic, Caitlin's doe brown eyes turned blue, "Caity, here is correct. I wanna have some fun tonight!" Killer Frost said with a smirk and turned back to Caitlin who was smiling at the men staring at her.
"Cait, can I talk to you?" She looks up from her microscope and sees Barry leaning on the entrance of the medbay. Caitlin nods and he slowly enters her room, maintaining a few distance away from her.
"If this is about me joining you and Cisco tonight, you won't change my mind. I have Frost with me." Caitlin said gently but firmly. Barry nods, "Yeah, I know I won't. I just… wanted to apologize about last night."
She nods and wears a small smile, "Me too, Barry. I'm sorry for being my usual uptight Caitlin Snow last night. You were right, I need to be used to these kinds of moments. Specially I'm working with the Flash."
Barry gives her a sheepish smile, "I get you, you'll always be worried about me and I'm sorry for making it sound like it's stupid to get worried for your best friend. Still I want you to be careful tonight. I don't know what will happen if I lose you the two of you." He said sincerely, pushing away the dread of thought of losing her or even Frost out of his system.
Caitlin smiles and pulls him to a hug, "I won't. We won't. You won't lose me, Barry. You and Cisco would protect me plus I'm more careful than you." She pulls way with a teasing smirk causing Barry to laugh.
The pair continued talking for a while, asking about each other's lives. Cisco smiles across the room, watching his two best friends finally talking again and laughing.
"Ramon, stop spying on them." Harry said while drinking his cup of Joe, eyes directed towards Barry and Caitlin. Cisco rolled his eyes and decided to play something on their computer.
~night~
Barry flashes himself in front of the Kingsley Burk Hotel, wearing a black tuxedo paired with a black bow tie and black dress shoes.
His hair was tousled up in a casual yet presentable style. Minutes later a portal appears beside him then two figures stepped out.
Cisco was also wearing his own tuxedo just like Barry, his curly hair styled perfectly. Beside him was Caitlin, wearing a backless midnight blue dress with a slit on the left side paired with blue heels. Her auburn hair was braided into a bun, she had a snowflake necklace around her neck, and light make up on her face.
They walked towards Barry, who was staring at Caitlin especially at her legs. Cisco was talking to Harry about the plan while Caitlin moved to Barry, eyes flashing blue.
"Flash, my eyes are up here." She smirked at his flushed face. He looks away from Frost and clears his throat, "Cisco, what's the status?" He went to the curly haired man followed close by Frost.
"Well, looks like Striker is already inside and waiting for Mr. Preston." Cisco said as the trio entered the grand and luxurious hotel. Christmas was just around the corner, hence the giant Christmas tree at the center decorated with various tinsels, ornaments, and grand star at the top.
There were a lot of people inside, looking fancy and chatting busily; waiting for the arrival of the man of the hour. The three of them looked around, trying to find the face of Ferdinand.
"It sounds like a bad idea but, should we split up?" Caitlin asks making her way around the sea of people with Cisco and Barry following her steps.
"I think it is a not good idea because Striker must've been also expecting us or me only?" Barry replied scanning everyone's faces quickly with his speed.
"Sorry, my vibe isn't like Waze, I can sense him but no words like, turn to your right and 30 meters forward, you'll arrive at your destination." Cisco grumbles feeling someone accidentally or purposely stepping on his shoes.
The two laughed at his complaint and continued working their way through the crowd.
"There!" Cisco shouted whispered to the two, who followed the direction of his finger. Up on the third floor of the grand hotel was a man dressed in his own formal clothes, looking down on the crowd.
He had a dark grin, hiding himself within the shadows of the hallway in the third floor. Barry clenched his knuckles, staring intensely at the figure of Striker. "Don't strike, yet." Caitlin said grazing her fingers over his clenched fist, Barry looks at her and releases a breath he didn't knew he was holding.
"We have the element of surprise. Anyway, before everything else, here's a ring for you, Flash." Cisco said excitedly and pulled out a golden ring with a lightning emblem in the middle.
Barry's eyes twinkled with delight, "You… were able to make it." Cisco grins widely, "Of course, all by myself." Caitlin rolls her eyes fondly, "He had Harry help him." Cisco looks at him, mortified, "Cait!" Barry laughs at the two of them, "Thanks, man."
He puts on the Flash ring, shining brightly on his finger. "Everyone, may I get your attention please." The three of them looked to the stage, a woman smiling widely was speaking in front of the crowd.
"I see a lot of faces here tonight. And on behalf of Mr. Jack Preston, I thank all of you for attending this Christmas Ball that he organized." She smiles and the crowd applauds while Barry, Cisco, and Caitlin watched vigilantly from their spot in the side.
Barry turned his attention to the third floor, looking for Striker. The hallway was empty causing him to sigh, "Striker is not in the third floor." Cisco and Caitlin looked at him, "Should we split up?" Cisco asked and Caitlin nods while Barry sighs and nods, "If any of us find him, alert the others."
The two nodded and a rough and deep voice spoke through their comms, "Don't die, Ramon, Snow, and Allen." Barry and Caitlin chuckled then replied, "We won't, Harry."
Cisco laughs, "Thanks for worrying, Harry." They repeated the plan one last time and with a final, "Good luck." The three of them split up.
Barry made his way through the left side of the hotel, walking near the stairs. He looked around, seeing various couples dancing and flirting on the dance floor.
"Everyone, please welcome, Mr. Jack Preston!" The woman said and applause filled the room causing Barry and the couples to look at the stage. Beside the woman was a man with a blond hair wearing a bright smile while waving to the crowd.
He was wearing a blue tuxedo with a black dress shirt underneath paired with blue pants and brown leather shoes. Hm, he has looks. Preston has a handsome face explaining the looks that the women were giving him.
Barry rolled his eyes, He's alright. Cait won't find him handsome, right? He shook his head, What am I thinking? Why do I care on who does Caitlin like? He grumbles and continued looking around the crowd.
Wow. He has looks. Caitlin thought while looking at Jack Preston, who was grinning at the crowd. I still prefer Savitar though. Frost said making Caitlin's eyes wide and feel warmth on her cheeks as she continued talking about her and Savitar, Too much details, Frost. She felt her smirk, Sorry, if only you weren't so afraid of telling Barry your feelings then both of us could've known the feeling of having a handsome speedster fi—
Caitlin shook her head, Frost! Stop. Please. She felt her giggle and nod making her breathe in relief. "I can't tell him my true feelings, he likes Iris and we aren't destined for each other.
Her eyes flashed blue, Really? Don't fuck with destiny. Only with Barry. Frost smirks before letting Caitlin take charge again, face burning red. "Frost! Please, let's focus on finding Striker." She continued looking around, ignoring the giggles of Frost inside her head.
"Guys, I see Striker." Cisco said through the comms causing Barry and Caitlin to suddenly stop, "Where?" Both asked, "He's near the buffet table." Cisco continued walking around the area, hiding from Striker who was currently drinking wine and staring at Preston, who was giving a speech.
Why is he alone in the table? He's not even hiding himself! Cisco thought while observing Striker who was simply eating his steak. Slowly, Cisco made his way to the table.
Suddenly, Striker stood up causing Cisco to stop behind a large pillar. "Enough with this bullshit!" He screamed getting everyone's attention and stopping Preston from speaking.
He raised his fist, glowing, "Time to strike this party down." Cisco's eyes widened, "Barry! Caitlin! He's striking!" He shouted as people started screaming and running around.
Barry raised his fist and activated the ring, using his speed and flashed himself with the Flash suit. He flashed himself to the location, in front of Striker who glared at him.
"Don't do this, they're innocent people!" He tried to reason out with the meta-human who sneered at him. Striker looked at the crowd, who were now a mess, "I don't care, Flash. Glad you're here, wanting another beat down?" He grinned evilly and punched the ground.
A massive shockwave was released sending Barry pummeling backward and the whole building shook, citizens panicking and screaming.
Barry crashes with the stage, a groan of pain escaping his mouth. Striker starts walking to him, both fists glowing brightly.
"Everyone, get out!" Caitlin shouted and used her hands to direct the people the way out of the hotel. Dozens of people were going out, "Please don't panic. Calm down, Flash will save us."
She said and glanced at Barry, slowly standing up on the ground while Striker walks closer to him. Barry, you can do this. I'll join in a jiff. She continued helping the civilians not noticing the stare of Jack Preston on her.
"Cisco, are there anyone else injured?" Barry asked while slowly standing up, wiping the blood from his mouth. "Just a few, Caitlin is helping in evacuating them safely out of here."
He nods, "Good." Barry focuses back on Striker, glaring at him with such intensity. "Stop this, Ferdinand. This isn't you. Whatever Preston did, we'll help you." He sneers at Barry, "Don't call me that Flash. Whatever Preston did, I don't your help. I know how to get justice, and that's by killing him!"
He was about to punch the ground again but Barry flashed beside him and kicked him using super speed sending him crashing with another pillar. Suddenly, four men came out of nowhere, pointing their guns at Barry.
"Nice kick. But I didn't come alone, Flash." He smirks at Barry while slowly standing up. Barry ignores his back up, "Me too, Lux. Me too." As the words came out of his mouth, two men were sent flying back by a vibrational blast.
Strikers eyes widened in shock, "I have friends too, Striker." The other two men were about to fire their guns but were also sent flying away. Cisco walked beside Barry, dressed in his suit, "Hey, Lux. Nice to see you."
Striker glared at the two, "Stop calling me that!" He punches the ground, causing another shockwave to occur. Barry ran around the walls while Cisco opened a portal, avoiding his waves.
"Thank you, miss." The last civilian said to Caitlin and rushed out of the hotel. She sighs and looks back at her best friends, trying to escape the shockwaves caused by Striker. She held on to a nearby table, maintaining her footing and waited for the waves to end.
Caitlin was about to run to them when a hand grabs her arm, "Don't bother calling for your friends, miss." A voice said near her ear sending shivers down her spine. This bastard. She felt Frost say, Don't. He has a gun.
Preston pointed a gun on the side of her head, "Let's go see your freaky friends, shall we?"
Striker stops his waves, glaring at Barry and Cisco who successfully avoided his attacks. Barry runs around in circles and throws several lightning bolts at him, who shouts in pain.
He charges to Barry but a vibrational blast sends him flying back to the pillar. Cisco continued barreling him with vibe blasts until he knocked out. Barry and Cisco started walking to the unconscious Ferdinand Lux, holding a pair of meta-human cuffs.
"Don't move. Or your friend's brain here is going to be spilled on the ground." A voice stopped the two heroes, looking back and eyes widening.
It was Jack Preston, holding a gun against Caitlin Snow. He was gripping her shoulder tightly. Caitlin was struggling, eyes flashing blue but stops because of the gun pointed at her.
"Caitlin." Barry says softly while glaring at Preston. Cisco was readying his hands, "Don't use any tricks, I can assure you that I'm faster despite your speed and vibrational blasts."
Barry holds an arm out in front of Cisco, looking at him. He sighs and puts down his hands. Preston smirks, "Good. Such obedient freaks with powers." They glare at him, "I wonder how much Amunet would pay just to have the Flash, Vibe and Striker in her business."
"You know, Amunet?!" Preston smiles widely and nods, "Of course. She told me all about you and your little team of heroes." He tightens his grasp at Caitlin, who struggles and glares at his hand on her shoulder.
"She even told me that this woman here is cold and frosty. Though I think she's gorgeous and quite amazing in bed." He licks his lips causing Caitlin to close her eyes in disgust and Barry clenches his hand tighter.
"Don't you dare." He glares at Preston, one that could rival Oliver's dark glares. Cisco looks at Preston and gives him a hard stare, "Leave her alone. Or else."
Preston laughs, "Or what? Threatening me because of her? Can't wait to have her later." He whispers at Caitlin's ears causing Barry and Cisco to glare more intensely.
That's it, this bastard is going to get it. Frost says while Caitlin finally lets her take charge. Time to freeze this idiot. She said making Frost smile widely.
"Oh, Preston. Such a shame, you have a gorgeous face but a hideous personality. Even my god of speed is much much better than you." Caitlin says and the gun pointed at her side was quickly getting frozen.
With wide eyes Preston drops the gun and his grip on Caitlin, "What's happening?! What are you doing?" She turns around, eyes blue and brown hair now white as snow, "I'm the cold and frosty." She raises her fist, encased by a frozen fist and punches him straight in the jaw.
She looks back at Cisco and Barry, both of their mouths agape in incredulity. Frost raised her eyebrow, "What? Can't a girl save herself?" She walks over to them, "No, but you actually knocked him out." Barry says looking at the unconscious Jack Preston.
Frost shrugs, "I got sick for getting knocked out too many times." She looks down at her gown, a small smile appearing on her face, "Wow, for the first time, Caity chose an outfit that I kinda like."
She brushes the dirt off her midnight blue dress, "Fits me perfectly, doesn't it, Flash? Got you staring at my legs." Frost asks while teasingly showing her legs to the speedster, who cleared his throat and blushed, eyes momentarily looking at her legs.
Cisco stifles a laugh, "There they are!" The three of them looked around and around fifteen men armed with rifles and pistols were surrounding them. Worse, Striker was slowly getting up, "Get them!"
"Get behind me, Vibe! Flash!" The two went behind the ice meta who conjured an ice shield just in time. Bullets were fired across the hotel, grazing the ice wall made by Frost.
"I can't hold them forever. Got brighter ideas?" She asked Cisco and Barry. "As long as Striker doesn't punch this ice wall, we're sa—Ahh!" Cisco didn't finish his words as the wall started shaking violently causing Frost to pour more of her powers.
"Nice jinx, Vibe." Frost said while concentrating on making her ice wall thicker against the punches of Striker. "Frost, Flash, and Vibe. You alive?" Harry asks over the comms, "Wow. If you were talking to us throughout the whole ambush then you would know." Cisco said sarcastically.
Harry chuckles quietly, "I am watching your ambush. Nice punch by the way, Frost. I'm looking at the CCTV footage I've isolated from the feed. I didn't bother giving advice, the three of you handled it well."
Barry nods with a smile, "Thanks, Harry. But we need your help right now." Harry nods, "I know. Listen, all three of you."
"Got it?" Harry asks. "Yes!" Frost answered snappily, barely holding her wall anymore. Barry and Cisco mumbled a yes and she stopped making it thicker and as Striker readies for another punch, "Now!" Frost explodes her wall, sending blocks of ice flying right at the men and Striker.
Barry flashes around, quickly beating and disarming the men while Cisco and Frost rampaged Striker with the ice and vibe blasts.
"Ahhh!" Striker cried in anger, about to slam both of his fists on the ground, "Barry! Now!" Cisco and Frost shouted.
Barry ran out of the hotel, making a great distance away from Striker and runs back with his fist stretched out.
Frost and Vibe moved aside causing Striker to look up just in time for the Flash's supersonic punch greeting his face. Lux flies back to a pillar and gets knocked out.
Barry quickly puts the meta hand cuffs around his fists, "Now that's over!" He looks back at Vibe and Frost, smiling at him.
"Nice job, Team Flash!" Cisco cheered as the three of them stepped out of the portal into Star Labs. Harry nods and simply raises his mug of coffee to them. Barry and Cisco bumped their fists together while Caitlin smiles and opens the news on their computer,
Ferdinand Lux put to jail together with meta-human smuggler, Jack Preston. Flash, Frost, and Vibe saves Central City.
"Now that's a headline." Cisco said excited causing everyone to smile and sigh in relief, another day for Central City.
"Cait." She turns around and smile at the man, still wearing his tuxedo. "Yes, Barry?" He grins at her, "I just wanted to say… You did great out there, tonight. You saved me and Cisco."
She laughs and unconsciously pats her dress down, "Thanks. We all saved each other tonight. And, it felt so good and exciting finally being able to be out in the field with my two best friends, it was surreal."
Barry grins at her, "Yeah. You and Frost are getting along well." Caitlin smiles and her eyes turn blue, We sure are, Flash. Barry laughs and looks at Caitlin, taking in her beauty.
She looks at Barry, feeling warmth spreading across her cheeks. He's so handsome. She thought while smiling at him warmly.
Barry smiles back and they continued staring at each other with smiles, no words being spoken but just feelings being shared.
Last time we were in this position… It was after that time we caught Peek-a-boo and did that memorable night out. Both of them thought, smiling at their fond memory.
What? You're all just going to stand here and smile like fools? This is exhausting. Caitlin's brown almond eyes turned blue, Frost smirking at the confusion of Barry.
"Frost?" She chuckles at him, "Hello again, handsome." Frost! What are y— Caitlin was cut off Relax, I'm just finally getting you a man.
She raises her hands and conjures an ice mistletoe above the two of them, Barry's eyes widening at the sight.
"It's not the traditional mistletoe but you still need to follow the tradition." Frost smirks at him. "Look, Barry, Caitlin really likes you and I can tell that you feel the same way. And it's getting annoying, the two of you afraid of trying out something that can possibly be the greatest thing ever."
Caitlin… likes me?! He stares at Frost, eyes wide in awe, "Man up, Flash. Just tell her what you feel."
She pulls her black bow tie, giving him a quick peck, careful not to freeze him. "Just a reminder that when you date Caitlin, you're dating me too. Hurt her, and I'll make sure to make a frozen popsicle out of you."
Barry felt his face was set on fire, "Uh... Of course!" Frost nods, "Don't worry, I prefer Savitar. But you're a Barry, and I guess every Caitlin likes any version of a Barry. See you."
Frost winks at him then her white hair was brown again and eyes almond again, Caitlin was in charge again, blushing wildly. "What Frost said was real. I really really like you, Barry Allen."
He clears his throat, "I like you too, Caitlin Snow. I'm sorry for beating around the bush." She smiles, "And sorry for having Frost to confess my feelings, technically our feelings because we are one." True that. We are Frost. Frost said with a smirk in her head.
Barry chuckles, "It's fine, Cait. She actually made a nice mistletoe." He looks at the twirling ice mistletoe above their heads, smiling widely.
Caitlin smiles, cheeks flushing red, "Yeah. Wouldn't want to waste it, do we, Mr. Allen?" Barry looks at her, a smirk appearing on his handsome face.
He moves closer to Caitlin, confidently with a wolfish grin. His hands grip her waist, feeling the perfect curves enunciated by her evil dress.
"This dress is evil, Dr. Snow. Showing all this perfectness to the world." Barry says in a husky voice sending tingles down her spine. He grips her tighter, remembering the way Preston touched her hours ago. Only mine. He thought and felt his cheeks burn red but ignores it anyway.
She lets out a soft and breathy moan as Barry continues to caress her waist, sometimes going up the exposed skin of her back. Caitlin looks at him, running down her hands through his tuxedo clad chest causing groans to escape Barry's mouth.
He looks at her, "I think this is the part where I kiss you first. Then the hands later." Caitlin giggles and stops her actions, "You're correct. Do your thing, Mr. Allen."
"With pleasure, Dr. Snow." He pulls her into him, their lips finally meeting, the feeling of something good and right radiated by their simple contact.
Caitlin wraps her arms around his neck as he pulls her closer by the waist, deepening the kiss. She pulls the ends of his brown hair, pushing him closer to herself.
"Ahhh!" A girlish scream broke their passionate moment causing the pair to pull away, eyes both wide at the sight of Cisco covering his eyes. Caitlin quickly pushed Barry away gently while Barry moves away, both of their faces bright red.
"I like the two of you finally managed to get together after all those years of silently loving each other but please I don't want to see the two of you, my best friends, practically eating each other's faces." Cisco kept on covering his eyes.
Caitlin and Barry shared a look, chuckling at their dramatic best friend. "Calm down, Cisco. We're not kissing anymore." Caitlin said gently as if talking to a scared puppy.
"Yeah. We'll continue it later, away from your sight." Barry says smugly earning a playful smack from Caitlin. "Barry!" She gives him a stern look.
"That's a good idea actually! Even make out in the Time Vault!" Cisco said whilst covering his eyes while Barry suggestively wiggles his eyebrows at Caitlin, who shakes her head in disbelief. Great. Having an overly dramatic best friend and touchy/needy boyfriend.
"Frost helped in getting you two together?" Cisco asks while eating a slice of pizza, a treat and apology of making out from Caitlin. Barry, on the other hand, promised to watch the whole Avenger series with him again for nth time.
Caitlin volunteered to watch with them but Cisco strongly and wholeheartedly disagrees with it, "No. Me and Barry only. Bros only. If you came with us, I'm the only one going to watch the movie while the two of you do unspeakable things beside me." Barry rolled his eyes and laughed when a snowball was thrown at Cisco's face.
"Yeah. She made a frozen mistletoe above our heads." Caitlin retells blushing at that thought then looked at Barry, who was also staring at her. He smiles at her when their eyes met and she does the same.
Cisco notices their shared look of love and chuckled, remembering how the last night he saw them staring at each other like that; a line of sparks, because of being annoyed, was clearly visible.
"I'm happy for both of you, Cait and Barry." He says and breaks the stare of the pair. Caitlin smiles and pulls him to a warm hug and Barry joins in.
Thanks, Frost. Caitlin said to her mind before leaving the lab, carried by Barry in his arms.
Don't mention it, Caity. You're stuck with me. Frost replied as Caitlin and Barry made love that night, the night when snow started falling to the ground.
Not all snow fell and crashed to the ground.
A single snow fell but was caught by a speedster.
She smiles at sight of him the morning after. All the years of wishful thinking and imagining him, now all a reality. Caitlin snuggles closer to Barry, who tightens his grip around the best present he has received this Christmas.
A/N: KF and Caitlin dynamics, mostly inspired by Venom lol. Hope you all enjoyed it! :-)
