That's so sweet! I think it would be impossible for Barry not to be attracted to KF and he'll be imagining Caitlin wearing that outfit a lot once he's back home.
Everything was taking too long for Harrison Wells so he stepped forward while flinging his tachyon gun over his shoulder .
"Fangirl on your own time, Allen. Every minute we're wasting down here my daughter could be in trouble. So let's give the lady some room to do whatever it is that she does and build that bridge to Zoom's hideout."
"It's called a lair, Harry" Cisco smirked.
Iris pulled her husband back to a safe distance and as they shared a moment Barry averted his eyes. It wasn't that he was jealous, the kiss with Iris proved once and for all that the puppy love he once felt for their Iris was just that, puppy love. What really stung was seeing that intimacy, the unspoken link of trust and support. Then it hit him. He had all of that back home. There was someone he confided in, that always had his back in any situation, someone that made him smile on even the darkest of days. He had all of that with Caitlin. But they were friends and he was sure that she never thought of him that way either.
"Allen, let's go!"
Harry's voice brought him back to reality and joined the others watching Killer Frost manipulate temperature by simply waving her hands and creating ice out of thin air. He wasn't the only one that was impressed by Killer Frost's powers judging from the oohs and aahs that sounded around them. Slowly but certainly a staircase materialized and when it was done Killer Frost turned with a smug smile on her face and her eyes on Harry's gun.
"I hope you brought more than just that gun because that's not going to stop Zoom. Last chance to bow out now."
Harry stepped forwards and snarled "Don't underestimate me, blondie. I'm getting Jesse back or die trying."
"Dying it is then," Killer Frost retorted cheerfully and then set her first steps on the ladder.
"Wait, we're all going up there? I don't know if I can make it. You know..wingtips" Barry2 whispered to Iris.
"Maybe you should this one out. Stay here. I'm sure we can handle this without you," Iris whispered back but Barry2 didn't seem convinced.
"No, you are my wife and if someone is going to protect you then it should be me." He glanced at Barry and then straightened his shoulders.
They all started climbing the icy stairs. Killer Frost leading the group, slowly followed by Barry and the others. The height wasn't the problem but the cold quickly started to spread through their bodies and slowing them down. In order to distract him from the freezing cold he caught up to Killer Frost.
"Soo…that kiss happened."
The moment he uttered the words he realized how awkward that sounded but the others were still a few feet behind and this could be the only time he had to address what happened earlier.. She didn't look back but kept climbing as if she didn't hear him at all. It made him try again but with less confidence.
"Don't you think we should talk about it? Well, maybe you don't but I think we should. It was pretty amazing. Even you have to agree to that."
She slowly turned her head to glare at him and then looked back down further down the stairs. He followed her eyes and noticed that she was glaring at Iris too. Then she started climbing faster.
He caught up to her without problem but by doing so they created more distance with the others.
"Oh come on. You can't still be mad about Iris. I told you, she's married to other Barry. When you were younger didn't you have a crush on someone? You probably liked Olav. Anyway, eventually you grow over that. Granted, for me that took a lot longer. What I would like to know is why you care so much about that. "
Now she stopped and hissed at him.
"Save your energy for when you face off with Zoom. I do NOT want to talk about that kiss. It was a mistake, so drop it."
"No. I won't and I know you don't mean that. You felt something when we kissed and that scares you. And something else..you don't get to be angry at me since you tried to kill me. You tried to freeze me with that kiss and don't bother trying to deny that either. You're making this about Iris because you're afraid."
Killer Frost's hand squeezed around the railing so tightly that a piece of ice broke off and tumbled into the deep. Their eyes locked and an involuntary shiver went down his spine again. The way she was looking at him he feared that he would quickly follow that piece of ice.
"There is nothing to deny. Yes, I tried to kill you because you wouldn't shut up and quite frankly, I'm very tempted right now to give it another shot. But if you think that I kissed you because I have a crush on you, you're mistaken. Ronnie is the only man I've ever loved and that will never change. You know what else will never change? Me. You want me to be someone I am not. I'm not like the Caitlin from your Earth so stop trying to make me like her. And stop calling me Cait."
Her last words echoed and bounced off the side of the mountain, making the others look up with curiosity and concern. Barry gave Cisco a nervous smile but then they started climbing again.
"You're jealous of Caitlin now?"
Maybe it wasn't smart to poke the bear further but her words were really starting to piss him off.
She chuckled mockingly and didn't even bother to look back at him.
"She sounds way too sweet and I don't do sweet. But if you like her so much, why haven't you asked her out? "
Her question took him by surprise and he took some time to think about it.
"Because..we're friends. And timing. First she was mourning Ronnie and I wasn't over Iris and then Ronnie came back and they got married.."
It now started to make sense why he felt so sick that day. At the time he thought it was because of the man in yellow and tension running high but now he realized that what really upset him was seeing her marry someone that wasn't him. For someone that smart he'd been pretty clueless.
Because he stopped talking Killer Frost looked back, a brow arched.
"But Ronnie is dead on your Earth too."
He flashed a sad smile.
"Yeah, he is. He died saving us when a singularity formed over the city. She was crushed and it was my fault. After that we didn't see each other for a few months but she came back to STAR labs and then she met Jay. And I met Patty."
He thought about he sabotaged that relationship. On paper Patty was the perfect girl for him. They both worked for the CCPD, they had similar interests and the same sense of humor and she was stunningly beautiful. Still, he couldn't bring himself to tell her about the most important part of his life. How the explosion of the particle accelerator had changed his and made him the fastest man alive. He convinced himself that he couldn't put her in danger by telling her but that wasn't the complete truth. Not that it mattered. She was gone and doing what she was always meant to do. Hopefully she was happy.
Killer frost groaned under her breath.
"Boohoo, you're breaking my heart with your sob stories. Now shut the hell up because we're there."
She gestured to the entrance to a cavity in the wall and then signaled the others to be quiet. He hang back to wait for Cisco while she climbed the last part.
"You okay?" he asked his friend while pulling him up.
"I bet you're regretting all those Big Belly burgers now, huh?"
"Very funny, Barry" Cisco replied while holding back a smile.
"What were you and Elsa talking about? It looked pretty intense"
Barry sighed and then shrugged it off.
"It's nothing. She's complicated. One moment she's trying to kill me and the next she's kissing. Women!"
Cisco looked at him with a stunned expression on his face.
"And the name Killer Frost didn't tip you off that that's what she does? She kills people. It's in her nature. Wait, did you say kiss?"
"Meh, she's not as bad as you think," Barry replied and helped Cisco onto the platform outside the entrance. While they waited for the others Cisco turned to him.
"She may look like our Caitlin but I don't think they have anything in common. She's a villain working for Zoom and you shouldn't trust her. I think you're playing with fire."
Barry looked at his friend knowing that he had a point but still he wanted to believe in Killer Frost too. That she was a victim of circumstance and that she deserved a second chance.
"I'm not playing with fire," he smirked. "I'm playing with ice."
"Oh boy.." Cisco muttered just as Killer Frost returned.
"No sign of Zoom but we should hurry just the same. I do not want to be here when he returns."
"Great, let's go" Harry answered for the group and pushed past the others to get inside. The had no choice but to follow closely behind.
So just E2 this chapter but I hope you like it anyway.
