A few months passed, Carter healing more each day, the distraction of Savitar helping her. Carter arrived at S.T.A.R. Labs to find Barry jumping through the portal with Jay by his side.
"Jay?" she asked, in shock, "Barry, why didn't you tell me you were bringing him to our Earth?"
Jay moved toward her, pulling her into his arms, "I told you I'd be back."
Barry replied, "I didn't want to get your hopes up, in case, he couldn't come back with me." He looked at the two of them, neither letting the other go, "I'll let you two catch up and then we can figure out Savitar."
Jay gave Barry an appreciative nod, finally pulling away from Carter. "I've really missed you, Kid."
"You can't call someone you've been intimate with, kid," she laughed, all her sadness gone. "How has Earth 3 been?"
He looked into her eyes, "Not anything like having you by my side," he leaned in to kiss her, Carter deepening it, immediately.
Jay moved her against the wall, his enthusiasm pressing against her hip. Carter broke the kiss, "Why did you travel in your hero outfit? It's so much harder to remove."
"I'll remember that for next time," he quipped, "Is there somewhere more private we can go?" he whispered, moving to her ear.
Carter nodded as she pushed him away, gently, and led him to the sleep quarters. She led him to a bed and gestured for him to sit down. Once he did as she requested, she climbed onto him, straddling him and resuming the kiss. She moved her hands to the waistband of his outfit, working it off of him while moving her lips to his jaw, then his neck.
Just as she was about to have success getting him undressed, the alarm went off. The one that summons everyone to the Cortex.
Carter stole one more quick kiss before she stood. "I'm guessing that sound means we aren't going any further, right now," he said before letting out a frustrated groan.
She shook her head, "Nope, that evil sound means all hands on deck," she answered, fixing herself before the pair made their way to the Cortex.
"Alchemy is live," Barry announced once everyone was present. "Are you ready Jay?"
"I'll come too," Carter added, only to be shut down by both men.
Barry spoke, "We only need two speedsters for the moment. Plus, we may need Momentum as a backup."
"Exactly," Jay agreed then looked to Barry, "Let's go."
Barry and Jay zoomed out of the room leaving Carter in the unusual task of watching their backs from afar.
She heard Barry and Jay divide when Savitar appeared, Jay taking him. "Be careful, Babe," Carter said into the comms, her anxiety levels high.
"I'll come back in one piece," he replied before he wasn't able to speak again once Savitar got a hold of him.
All Carter could see was the vitals tracker being thrown against walls around town. Her stomach sank as she watched. She was finally able to breathe when Barry said he had the stone and Savitar left the scene.
Carter was waiting for them to walk back in and was immediately at Jay's side, helping him to the medbay so Caitlin could check him out. "I told you to be careful," she fake chastised him as he sat down, letting out a groan of pain accompanied by a wince.
"I tried," he offered in reply before Carter took his hand while Caitlin checked him out.
"You'll be ok, but you need to take it easy," Caitlin spoke, "You broke a few ribs. I'm assuming I can leave Carter in charge of making sure you don't overdo it?"
Carter nodded, "You know it," she answered, causing Caitlin to leave the room. Carter shook her head, "Now, we can't even finish what we started."
"I truly regret that," Jay replied as he tried to sit up to stand, speaking through his teeth. Carter helped him as much as she could. "We could always just spend time together, maybe binge TV like you enjoy?"
"You know how to win me over," she agreed, helping him stand and then walk back to the sleeping bunks.
Once they reached them, she assisted him in changing out of his costume into jeans and a olive green button down. She, then, helped him into a bed before setting up the TV and then joining him. He moaned in pain as he lifted his arm to wrap it around her, but he wasn't going to let their time together go to waste.
"So, what are we going to watch?" he asked, turning toward her and placing a kiss on her forehead.
She pulled up Netflix, "You pick. I'm just happy to be in your arms," she replied as she began scrolling through the menu until Jay picked a show. She hit play and then put down the remote so she could snuggle into him.
