Part 21
Six months later
Caitlin and Barry held their twin boys. The doctor who had delivered them had been sent and paid for a month ago by Bruce Wayne. The doctor knew if she disclosed anything about who Barry or Caitlin were that she would never practice medicine anywhere ever again.
"We need names for them." Said Caitlin
"Yeah I know. I was thinking for the one you are holding how does Ronald Joseph Snow Allen sound? We could call him either RJ or if you want Ronnie." Said Barry
"You want to name one of our sons after Ronnie?"
"He was a hero Cait. I know how much you loved him."
"Joe will be honored that we give him his name."
"Yeah he will be."
"If we are going with another person who died a hero then how about Edward Henry Snow Allen for our other son?"
"Eddie?"
"Yeah. He did save us from his future descendent."
"That is just so weird."
"Yeah well weird is just another Tuesday for us."
"I know."
Barry Kissed his wife as Kara poked her head into the med bay.
"Not to interop this cute moment but you got a lot of anxious family out here." Said Kara
"Yeah, uh send in Cait's parents, Joe, Wally and Iris if she arrived." Said Barry
"Yep she is here so is Barbara Gordon."
Kara left and the West family members and Caitlin's parents walked in.
"Everyone meet Ronald Joseph and Edward Henry Snow Allen." Said Barry
"We will call them Ronnie and Eddie." Said Caitlin
"You are naming one of them after Eddie?" asked Iris
"If you don't mind. Iris we like the idea of naming all three of our kids after people we admire. People we see as heroes even if no one else does." Said Caitlin
"I think Eddie would be honored that the two guardians of Central City named one of their sons after him. You think Ronnie would like that you named a son after him?" asked Iris
"He would tell me not to. That he was no hero. But in my eyes he is. He helped save this city." Said Caitlin
"They are very cute honey. Though I think they are taking after their father." Said Carla
"Yeah well don't hold that against them." Said Barry
"I personally hope they turn out just like their father. He is one of the best men I know." Said Caitlin
"How about we let the others have a turn to see the twins?" said Iris
"Good idea." Said Joe
"Caitlin, you make a beautiful mother." Said Thomas
"Thank you dad."
Things were not good between Caitlin and her father. But they were slowly working on their relationship. But it was not going to be easy to repair the damage that had been done in the nearly twenty years apart.
"So Barry and Caitlin if they are speedsters will you let me train them or at least help?" asked Wally
"We will see Uncle Wally." Said Caitlin
"Who do you want to see next?" asked Joe
"Send Kara, Alex and Barbara in." said Barry
Alex walked in a few minutes later with a couple of gifts. Barbara was behind her walking using a walker, with Kara right behind her just in case she fell. Caitlin smiled at the red headed woman happy to see her walking again even if it was with a walker.
"Bruce, wanted to come. But unfortunately Clayface and Riddler are up to no good again. But he sent gifts with me. Alex was kind enough to help me bring them in." said Barbara
"I am just glad that you are walking." Said Caitlin
"Well speedsters and you have some really amazing cells. But I still have a long way to go."
"You will get there. Kara why don't you come and take Ronnie so I can see what Bruce sent the twins." Said Caitlin
"Well one is from me. I think there is something for Laurel in Bruce's as well." Said Barbara
Kara took the baby from Caitlin who had been sleeping but at the change in arms opened his eyes and looked at her with warm green eyes. He then closed them without a sound.
"I guess Ronnie likes me." Said Kara
"Why wouldn't he like his Aunt Kara? He knows that he is safe with his Super Aunt." Said Barry
Barry started to sing softly. The only one besides Caitlin that could hear him was Kara.
"Barry! I thought we agreed to never bring up that song ever again!" said Kara
"Am I missing something?" asked Barbara
"Short version is several years ago right before I went full Killer Frost. This interdemential being who called himself Music Minster trapped Barry and Kara's minds in a musical world, because these two it seems love old movie musicals. It was to teach them a lesson about love. But they had to play out the plot of the musical. In it the wrote a song called 'Super Friend'. I heard Barry sing it to Laurel a few times. It is rather cheesy." Said Caitlin
"Says the woman who can't carry a tune in a suitcase." Mumbles Barry
Caitlin glared at Barry as his foot became covered in ice. He vibrated his foot to thaw it out.
"So Caitlin, you can't sing?" asked Barbara
"No. I can't." said Caitlin
"Summer nights had me a blast…" sang Barry
"Stop bring that night up!" yelled Caitlin
Barbara raised an eyebrow at them.
"Apparently one night while hunting down a meta human they went to a bar that she and her boyfriend frequented. Caitlin got drunk pulled Barry onto stage to sing karaoke." Said Alex
"If I have the name of the bar and date I might be able to see if the security footage still exists." Said Barbara
"Tell her Bartholomew and you will be not only on the couch for a week but on diaper duty for the next month." Said Caitlin
"Yeah uh sorry not telling you." Said Barry
Caitlin opened the gift Bruce sent. She pulled out several outfits with the Batman insignia on them.
"Well I guess we just add those to the collection of Superhero outfits our kids have." Said Barry
"Yeah. Oh Barbara take a look at what he sent for Laurel." Said Caitlin
Caitlin held up a doll that was dressed as Batgirl.
"I have never seen one of those before." Said Barbara
"He put a note in. It's two of a kind. He had them made just for Laurel and you. He will give you yours when you get home. He knows that you are too old to play with a doll. But it's too remind you that you will always be a hero."
"I'm no hero."
"Says every hero ever. Weather you are Batgirl or Oracle by trying to make Gotham a better place you are a hero. Caitlin and Barry are heroes weather they like it or not. Oliver and his team are heroes. My cousin is a hero, and so am I. Barbara none of us got into this life to be heroes. We did it because it's who we are. We want to help others even if it means putting our life on the line. Real heroes aren't born they are made." Said Kara
"Super cheerleader is right. As a guardian of the timeline and history I know these things." Said Sara walking in.
"So in theory you could go back and prevent me from being shot by the Joker?" asked Barbara
"Actually no. That event is a fixed point. Can't be changed or we break time. You were always meant to become Oracle. Barry was always meant to become the Flash, Oliver the Green Arrow. Caitlin was always going to become Frost. Though there was a small percentage of possible outcomes Gideon ran where it was the villain Killer Frost." Said Sara
"You probably don't have any future knowledge of Alex and me." Said Kara
"Actually I do. But I can't tell you. But I can tell you that you both will have a big role to play in the future. Now if you don't mind I need to speak to these two alone." Said Sara
"No problem." Said Kara
Once the other three left Sara turned to the Barry and Caitlin.
"We need to talk about the twins."
Barry and Caitlin looked at each other wondering what problem they were going to cause.
