Alright guys I have the next chapter for you guys, sorry it has taken me so long to get it up. I also want to say that for those who want to bash my writing and my story you can leave and not read it. I write for the fun of it, it's a passion of mine, yes I may not be the best at writing, but at least I enjoy what I do. Anyway, thank you for those who support me. I don't own any of the characters of the Flash except for Caterina and Lydia. I hope you enjoy this chapter!
To think Christmas was right around the corner again, I feel like time just keeps on going way to quick for me. Laying across Barry, I laid here watching an old Christmas movie while Joe put ornaments on the tree.
"Two boxes left," says Joe smiling at us
"By this rate we'll be done by Easter," sighs Barry
"You guys are no fun," I giggle wrapping Barry in tinsel.
Grinning from ear to ear, I hear Joe shaking his head saying, "Don't even," next thing you know the tree is decorated because of Barry's super speed.
"Ok, the only red suited man I want in this house is Chris Kringle," Joe states
"I agree on that Jojo, I mean come on Bare you're taking the fun out of decorating," I pout
Sighing Barry does it again this time taking down the decorations for us to put back up, plopping back down I flop on his legs smiling up at him.
"Uh these ornaments aren't going to hang themselves," states Iris with hot cocoa in her hand.
"That's what I keep telling them Iris," I pipe in grinning at Joe and Barry as they give me dirty looks.
"Oh, shush Kitty Kat that goes for you too," she grins at me
before we could continue Joe got a call in to answer some questions telling us not to leave anything for him when he gets back. Tuning Iris and Barry out, I look down at my phone to see a message from Leonard himself.
Leo: What are you up to?
Kat: Helping put decorations up on a tree, watching two of my friends become lovey dovey
Leo: Cute.
Kat: What about you Mr. I don't do Christmas? ;)
Leo: Again cute. Planning something and Christmas isn't that bad if you must know.
Kat: So, he does have a heart ;) what are you planning? :(
Leo: Nothing bad sweetheart.
"Kat!" Iris calls
"I'm sorry one more time," looking up from my phone hiding it in my back pocket
"I said it's time for you to open up our presents like we did as kids," Iris giggles
Seeing the necklace around her neck, I knew Barry would come through with the ring. Also seeing Iris got him the scope. Barry hands me his present but I see him watching where I put my phone, rolling my eyes I rip open the packaging to see a lightning bolt bracelet. Staring at it, I felt my eyes water, pulling Barry into my arms I whisper a thank you.
"My turn!" squeals Iris handing me her present.
Opening her present, I saw new pair of boots I've been wanting for like six weeks, I squeal hugging her tightly.
Barry's pov
As Rina pulls me into a hug I quickly pull her phone out of her pocket without her noticing. Iris pulls her attention giving me the moment to look at her phone. Stopping to see the words Leo pop up on her screen.
Leo: Don't worry sweetheart, I got you something for Christmas.
shaking my head, I quickly put it back in her pocket. Next thing you know there's a knock on the door and Eddie walks through.
Rina's pov
Scrunching up my nose as he walks through the doors, I get up and walk into the kitchen. Looking down I didn't realize I missed a message from Leonard.
Kat: oooh? I got to say that I did get you a little something too ;)
Leo: Really? is it something lace?
Kat: gross come on Leonard
Leo: had to ask.
"Rina?" calls Barry
"Sorry what were you saying?" I ask looking up at him
"I was wondering if you were coming to star labs?" he asked
"I uh will catch up, I have something else first but then I'll see ya," I said grabbing my coat walking to my bike.
Stopping at the front of the cemetery, I take a deep breath before walking in.
"hey mom I know it's been a while since I've come to talk to you," I whisper, "I still am really sorry for everything I have caused. I didn't know it would be like this, but I guess not everyone can be perfect. Things happen, and it changes people, I wish I could take back of what I did, but he deserved it. I just wanted to say Merry Christmas mom, I love you."
Taking a step back, I moved on to Barry's mom putting lilies down for her, closing my eyes, I can still see everything that happened so vividly.
flashback
"you think you're so great! I know you have been cheating!" Yelled my father
"Baby I don't know what you're talking about, I would never!" my mother cried
coming down the stairs slowly I walk into the kitchen and stop and see my father slam his fist into her face again. Blood was everywhere, my mom sees me and starts to cry.
"Baby go back to bed everything will be ok," she cries
"Sweetheart, I was teaching your mom a great move, how about you come over here and watch," he grins
shaking my head no, I get grabbed my the hair thrown into the ground, hitting the puddle of blood my mom was leaving.
"Leave her alone!" mom yells
"Shut up!" he yells taking the knife shoving it in her stomach
I let out a scream which ends up me getting slapped in the face, I could feel blood on my face. I look up and see him still stabbing her repeatedly, screaming I slam into him making him fall back and the knife dropping on the floor.
"You bitch!" he growls coming at me
Looking down I see the knife picking it up I run at him and trip him. stumbling I crawl on him and stab him in the chest, crying I do it two more times before I fall off landing in the blood crying my eyes out.
end of flashback
Snapping out of it when I hear my phone go off I stop to see that I have been standing here in the cemetery this whole time, it was growing dark on me.
"Hey Bare," I cough to cover up my weak voice
"Hey where are you?" he asks
"Uh just around got distracted," shaking my head
"Alright well if you can...Beep beep beep," Pulling my phone away I see I have an incoming call.
"Bare I'll have to call you back," I instantly tell him
"Wait!" was all I got before hanging up
"Lydia what is going on?" I asked
"Oh my god finally, the bar its gone it's been burnt to the ground, someone said they just saw a flash of yellow and that was it," she exclaims
"You're kidding right, man I'll be right there," yanking on my hair.
Getting to my bike I get to my work and to see it to shreds, this could not be a worst day ever. Lydia with her red hair running at me her eyes filled with tears.
"Hey, its ok don't worry we'll get a new job I'm just glad your safe," I smile softly at her
"Lydia, Rina!" Yells Emily running at us, but not before seeing the man in yellow coming up behind her and stabbing her in the heart.
Lydia screams getting behind me, closing my eyes, I pull myself off the bike. "what can't you find some other people to kill?" I growl
"Rina! you can't, lets run away?" she cries
"No! I'm sorry you had to find out like this, but I have to try," I growled
"Something wrong Ms. Jones?" he laughs
"Rina?" whimpers Lydia
closing my eyes, I breathe and open my eyes back open to show they are completely pink, my hair turning all pale pink. With a flick of my wrist I send a shock at him, but he dodges it. seeing him run at me. I smirk before grabbing Lydia and holding towards me letting out a wave around me which sends him flying. when I open my eyes, he zips out of here.
Letting go of Lydia she stares at me tears in her eyes, "I'm sorry you had to find out like this," I sigh
"You're her? Oh my gosh you're her that's so cool," she grins
blinking at her, I sigh grabbing my phone calling Joe about this whole ordeal. sitting on my bike I answer all her questions and now she wants to help be a part of this, damnit. When the cops show up so does Barry asking me what went down why I didn't call him back.
This just got a whole lot more personal.
