Charlie's first... illness

Barry's pov

Today I had left Central City under Kid Flash's protection, for my little Charlie was sick and I couldn't leave her if I felt able to, she had latched herself onto my arm with no intentions to let go whatsoever. Cait was helping, thank goodness; and my little baby was fussing up a storm.

" Charlie, Baby; it's ok. Daddy's got'cha. I'm here." That seemed to soothe her enough for Cait to check her throat, and for once, she did not gag and puke all over me. Her temp was oscillating between 98 and the 100's; which left my precious baby quite unhappy. As I soothed her once more, Cait checked her ears and diagnosed a sore throat with a double ear infection. At least her rapid healing would relieve her of this pain sooner than normal.

Cait smiled " I gave her meds, she should be better tomorrow morning. Some daddy cuddles should work wonders." Not needed to be told twice, I scooped up my baby in my arms, soothing her instantly, then sung her to sleep.
