I wanted this one to be more fluffy. I hope I made this one fluffy. Like I mentioned earlier, this is Chapter 2 of 5 so if you didn't read it chapter one, please read that first. You'll understand why as more chapters get posted but if not, this also works as a standalone chapter :)

Thank you for all your kind reviews from the first chapter. I'm posting with limit internet and I will respond to each one of them when I'm back in town.


Chapter 2: April Showers

Caitlin didn't know how it happened but somewhere along the way, she found herself coming to the realization that her little crush on their resident speedster wasn't so little anymore. She thought she kept her feelings under control until the Danvers Sister pulled her aside for some girl-talk.

"You've fallen in love with him."

Her eyes widened and she stuttered, adamantly denying those accusations. She saw the look that Alex gave her and shrank under her gaze. The sisters laughed in response and continued to tease her while at the same time, trying to encourage her to tell Barry about her feelings.

She halfheartedly dismissed their antics, playfully rolling her eyes at them. Kara merely smiled in return, making her promise that when she gets engaged to lover-boy over there, the invites better come. Needlessly to say, Caitlin only nodded her head, her cheeks turning a lovely shade of tomato red at the image of being married to him.

It also didn't help that Barry came over just moments later, a worried expression on his face as he kept putting his hand on her forehead, causing both Alex and Kara to burst out laughing. She promptly shushed them but the blush never went away. Soon after, they bid goodbye to their friends as they left the bar, promising to come back soon.

As soon as they started walking, the weather suddenly changed and the rain came pouring down, catching them by surprise. Barry immediately reached for her hand and pulled her along, laughing as they ran for some cover.

"You're soaked." He pointed out, smiling at her. "Do you want me to breach us home?"

She shook her head, unable to trust her voice. Her eyes flickered between his eyes and their hands, which were still clasped together. Even though she was soaked through her clothes, her body should be shivering but it was quite the opposite. She was rather warm and despite the weather on Earth-38, she knew it was just her.

"N-no." She managed to muttered, averting her eyes. "You had a nice day planned for us here. Maybe we can still do it?" She asked hopefully.

Barry chuckled and turned away, releasing her hand in the process. She balled her hand together, almost if she was trying to preserve the moment for just a little bit longer. "This is fine too." He answered, jumping out into the rain once more. He started dancing, moving his body to a rhythm that only he could hear. His arms moved in conjunction with his body, the smile never once leaving his face.

Her hands went up to cover her eyes, giggling at the same time. "Stop Barry, you're going to get sick." She urged, finding it hard to keep up her stern doctor persona. She saw him gesturing for her to come join him but she merely shook her head.

"Are you really willing to let me get sick on my own Doctor Snow?" He teased. "I thought you took a Hippocratic Oath to never allow a person to become a patient?"

"You don't get sick Barry." She flatly pointed out. "I don't think I've ever seen you sick ever since you became the Flash."

He gasped and clutched his heart, pretending to be in pain. "You wound me Cait. Am I the type of person who would intentionally get sick just to prove a point?"

"Yes you are." She said, sticking her tongue out but before she could blink, she found herself standing in the rain with Barry, who merely whistled as he tried to look innocent. She wanted to frown but with her best friend looking so adorable, it was hard not to smile.

"Haven't you ever seen Singin' in the Rain?"

"Of course I have but I'm not going to be singing and dancing." She answered, her cheeks turning red. She wasn't sure if it was because of the close proximity to Barry or the very thought of singing in public again.

"Then let me show you." Barry said, reaching for her hand. His sudden actions caught her off-guard and her eyes drifted away from his soaked t-shirt down to their hands, secretly enjoying the way his thumb was drawing circles on the back of her hand. "Do you trust me?" He softly whispered and she just nodded.

He slowly spun her around, her body moving alongside him. "I don't know why you hate dancing so much. You're a fantastic dancer."

"Barry..."

His eyes widened and his smile became even bigger. "What? You are!" With one smooth motion, he gently pulled on her arm, bringing her back closer to him and he took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her waist. "Are you at least having fun? I would hate that your first trip to this Earth was a disappointment."

"And what if I say it was?" She coyly asked. "Does that mean you'll have to try harder next time?"

"Of course. You know I would do anything for you Cait."

Her heart skipped a beat at the mention of his nickname for her. She felt his arms tightening around her waist and with Alex's earlier conversation still fresh on her mind, she took a deep breath and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Is this your way of asking me out on a date Barry?" She whispered, enjoying the closeness between their bodies.

He smiled at her. "Yes I am."

She could see it in his eyes, the affection that he had for her and she smiled in return. Despite the unexpected rain, she was going to remember today. It was a lot of firsts for her. The first time she came and saw her friends on Earth-38. The first time she actually danced in the rain and more importantly... the first time she allowed herself to act on her feelings for him.

"I would go anywhere with you Barry Allen." She answered honestly, staring into his eyes. She felt him leaning in and she closed her eyes, her feet tippy-toeing a little to meet him half way. His soft lips met hers, gently kissing her. Her arms tightened around his neck and pulled him in closer. It didn't matter that they were standing out here in the rain. As long as she was with him. She knew she was going to be fine.
