Title: New Attractions

Language: English

Disclaimer: I obviously don't own the Flash or I'd be starring in it as Barry's girlfriend/fiancée/wife, etc. I don't own The Vampire Diaries either :(... Yeah I know life sucks :(! Don't own the Arrow :(. Actually I don't own any TV series or I'd probably be directing/creating now instead of writing fanfiction.

Summary: Barry is in love with Iris. Then a new girl shows up, with secrets. Now he's confused. (I know there are loads of stories with this plot but please give it a chance :)! )

A/N: I'm not up to date with The Flash yet :( so there may be some mistakes that's why it doesn't follow the series plot line according to the Superhero things...

Pairings: Barry/OC Barry/Iris Iris/Eddie and more. Give suggestions and/or prompts.

Rating: T for very suggestive language use and possible making out.

I'd like to just point out once again that Grant Gustin (sadly don't own :(! ) is freaking hot and his voice is addictive! I seriously can't get over his performances of Uptown Girl, Glad You Came and Smooth Criminal on Glee - All of which I don't own :( !

Welcome to Central City, Salvatores.

Ashmi's POV

The Flash goes to stop a kidnapping, he doesn't need any help, so I go home. "And where have you been?" Damon raises his eyebrow and has a stern look on his face. "We've been worried sick! You said you had some work to do and not to worry because you were coming home. So we decided you were working too hard, so we were going to come back and take you out with us. Only to find out, you weren't even here!" Stefan exclaims angrily. Damon being extremely observant notices a cut on my arm (from Green Ivy), "And what is that?" Stefan sees the mark on my arm and his eyes flash angrily, "Who did this to you? Was it that Barry guy?"

"What? No!" I say shocked, "Barry would never do something like that!" Damon and Stefan both stare at me. I bite my lip. 'Crap! Should I lie?' I debate to myself. 'No, Damon will figure it out or if he doesn't Stefan will,' I think, 'Just come clean.' Suddenly I notice something on the TV.

"Good evening. This is Daily News Live. We have received recent footage of the Flash and his new partner. We've been told her name is the Mystic Raven. They were spotted at a warehouse and saved Iris West, daughter of officer Joe West from another villain. His current whereabouts are unknown, but we've been told that it's been taken care of," The reporter of local news on the screen smiles. "Right, well," I let out a breath nervously, "I'm a sorta the uh urmm." "Get on with it," Damon says impatiently. "Imthemysticraven," I mumble. "What?" Damon says. "She's the Mystic Raven," Stefan says. I swear he can figure out any mumbling. "So, who wants pizza?" I say, breaking the silence.

"I do!" Stefan says, "Mushrooms, cheese and chicken. One chicken tikka. And one club pizza coming up!" "Are you crazy?" Damon directs at me. "Are you seriously letting this go right now? She's going to get herself killed!" Damon shouts at Stefan. "Look Damon, whether you say she can or she can't, she's still going to do what she wants. So it's either you learn to accept it or you guys are going to start fighting. And with both of you being stubborn asses, we would never know when that fight is going to end," Stefan shrugs, "Atleast this way we can help her if she needs it." "Thank you," I smile at Stefan. "Well of course he's going to agree with you," Damon rolls his eyes, "You both have the same stupid hero complex."

"And do you know what happens? You guys fall in love with someone. Someone tries to kill them. You go to save them because of that stupid hero complex. You get caught and I have to end up saving your asses," Damon says angrily. He turns away from us. I walk in front of him and place my hands on his shoulders. "Damon look at me," I say lifting his head up, "I'm not going to die. You hear me! I'm not going to die. Okay?" "Promise?" He grins at me. "Promise," I say hugging my brother. "Now that you guys made up, can I order that pizza?" Stefan smirks at us. "And where's my hug?" He grins to me. "Stef! You know I love you too," I say jumping and hugging him.

We all smile at each other. We hop on the couch, eat pizza and watch a moviemarathon. I didn't realize how much I love having family around more. It's been a while.

So New place. New city. New faces. New drama. And New Job. But same family. Good pizza. Old movies. And Home.

Chapter 7: Races & Rooftops

Barry's POV

After stopping the kidnapping, I was beat. I ate dinner and then a couple granola bars to keep my energy up. And as soon as I'm done I hit the bed.

The Next Morning

I groan as I hear my alarm ringing. I yawn as I get up and switch it off. I get in the shower, have a quick wash, brush my teeth and change my clothes. I have a few minutes before work so I flash to STAR labs. "Barry, check it out!" Cisco exclaims excitedly. I look at what he's talking about. It's that thing Oliver has, the one with the metal pole that you jump and move up with. "Felicity says it's Oliver's one, he accidently ordered two and she wanted you to have it," Caitlin says smiling at me. "This is so COOL!" I shout excitedly and then I go to it and start using it, going up and down it with super speed.

"Looking fast there speedy," The Mystic Raven says with a smirk, walking in and crossing her arms over her chest. "Mystic Raven!" I say, "I didn't expect to see you, because there's no bad guys." "Yet," she raises her eyebrow. "Anyways," She continues, "I'm here about Roy. I wanted to know how he's doing." "Oh," I reply with a hint of disappointment. "Well he's doing okay," Caitlin says, "But if you want to contact him, here's his number." She writes Roy's number down and hands her a piece of paper with it on. "Thanks," She says, "He reminds me of someone. One of my friends, he was like a little brother to me." I smile at that, that's so sweet.

My watch beeps. "Oh shit! I gotta go! I'm late for work!" I exclaim before giving everyone a quick goodbye and hurrying off.

Ashmi's POV

I went to STAR labs and Caitlin gave me Roy's number. I text him, not using Ashmi's phone - wow it's weird referring to myself in the third person - but using the Mystic Raven's phone. Like the one I gave to the Flash and the team at STAR labs.

Me: Hey

Roy Harper: Who is this?

Me: The Mystic Raven, who else :D?

Roy: Oh hi :)!

Me: How are you doing? Did you speak to Thea yet?

Roy: I'm doing great! Whatever you gave me was awesome! No not yet, I don't know what to say...

Me: Yes you do. You're just afraid to say it.

Roy: How did you know that?

Me: I knew someone like you... Just tell her the truth. Oh and I'm invited to the Theroy getting back together party!

Roy: Theroy =D?

Me: Shut up =D! It's your ship name :)!

Roy: Sure it is =D...

Me: Now I remember what having a little brother feels like... Should I return you =D?

Roy: You wouldn't :(... Never had a sort of sister though, it's a good thing :D!

Me: Well have this thing called an actual job to get back to and unlike you I'm not dating my boss so... Bye lil' bro :)

Roy: Bye :)... You still haven't told me who you really are yet!

Me: I might...

Me: Someday =D

End of texts.

Being friends with Roy reminds me of one of my old friends. He was just like Roy and he was like my little brother too.

And it's nice to have friends again. Well there's still Barry. 'The same Barry with pink lips and abs and kisses that light you on fire,' My subconscious teases, 'That's how you see all your friends.' I'm about to reply when I groan and think, "Am I really about to argue with myself?"

Suddenly my phone buzzes - Ashmi's phone (third person thing is still weird) - and Barry's name appears. My heart skips a little beat and my hands race to pick it up. I click on the answer button and put the phone to my ear.

"Hi," He says. "Hey," I reply, trying to be as calm and smooth as possible. "So, I was wondering if you wanted to go bowling tonight?" He says nervously. "Like a date?" I ask unsurely. Does he mean as friends or as more? "No! No... I mean, because you said you never really saw Central City and your brothers never had much of a tour. So I thought that maybe you'd want to go out and you know hang out," He rambles. "Oh," I reply disappointed but trying not to show it, "My brothers are gone. They had some urgent business to attend to. But we can still go bowling. I love bowling!" "Uh great! So I'll be at your place at seven then?" Barry says. "Yeah," I smile even though he can't see it. Just because it doesn't start out as date doesn't mean it can't end as one.

Barry's POV

After the phone call ends, I ponder. Did she seem disappointed that it wasn't a date? Because I totally wanted it to be a date! But I didn't want to pressure her or anything. I mean she's getting over Lucas. I finally realized I was more in love with the idea of Iris than I was with Iris herself. Plus what if I mess it up? Maybe it's better to stay just friends. Like Oliver said, guys like us don't get the girl. Besides I doubt anything would happen. I mean sure we kissed. Twice. But that doesn't mean she wants to date me. And the first time was to make the fake blondes jealous and the second time got interrupted. Maybe she wants a sort of rebound thing. But I can't do that, I like her and I don't want to mess up our friendship. Besides after being struck by lightning, I could really use a night out.

And with that, I hop in the shower and try to decide on what to wear. A while later - in normal people time so that tells you how long it really was - I finally decide. I go for the black skinny jeans and a black button up shirt. And then I set my hair with a little gel and walk downstairs. "What do think?" I ask Joe. "I think if you change one more time, Imma shoot you," Joe says. I put my hands up in an 'I surrender' motion and grab my jacket before walking out the door. I check the time - Half past six. Then I get a message from Caitlin. Without even checking it, I head over there. No time, I really didn't want to be late for once. It's probably important, because I told her I was hanging out with Ashmi today.

"Barry what are you doing here?" Caitlin asks surprised. "I got your message," I reply. "And?" She asks confused and tilts her head. "So what's wrong?" I reply quickly. "I just wanted to wish you luck on your date," Caitlin raises an eyebrow. "Oh," I say sheepishly, "I though something happened." "Nope, nothing yet," Caitlin smirks. "And it's not a date!" I shout before flashing over to wait for Ashmi outside her building. 'No matter how much you wish it was,' the voice in my head teases.

Ashmi's POV

Okay, so which of these tops. The black is sexy and says "I'm exciting." The red one says, "I'm hot and sexy." The pastel blue one says, "Girl next door." And the white says, "Comfy and Casual."

I look at them before smirking. Definitely the red then! That'll teach him to not notice me. I'll make him notice me.

I pick some black skinny jeans, the red top, a pair of long red earrings and a pair of black strappy heels. I apply light, barely there make-up with a slight blush and add some lipstick. I look at the mirror satisfied. "You clean up nice," I reassure myself in the mirror, "You look hot and you're going to make him wish he asked you out!" I nod to myself before grabbing my bag and phones and exiting my apartment. As I walk down the stairs I start to get nervous. What if he doesn't like red? What if he's still in love with Iris? What if he doesn't even like me like that? What if he just wants to be friends? I mean I don't want to ruin our friendship. What if I forget how to bowl? Holy Crap!

I reach the doors and walk out. He's standing in front of the building, waiting. He actually looks nervous? He then turns around and sees me. His jaw drops and I smirk. Just the reaction I was going for! "You ready to go?" I ask innocently. He blinks at me and says, "What? Oh uh yeah sure... The bowling alley isn't far from here. Just down the road actually. Oh and I got you this!" He hands me a cup of coffee. My favourite coffee. "I'd ask if you were trying to get me drunk but I'm pretty sure coffee can't do that," I say with a grin. He grins back and with that we walk towards the bowling alley.

He selects a red ball and rolls it down the lane. It looks shaky for a split second but he scores a strike and I see his face light up. I grab the black one and roll it down the lane. "Yes!" I say jumping excitedly. I still got it! He laughs at how excited I am and I stick my tongue out at him. He grins at me and I roll my eyes, but I can't help but grin back. We continue bowling until about nine in the night. We joke and play around and just have fun. Once we're done we walk back to my apartment building. We're both standing outside and I turn to face him.

"Well I guess this is goodbye," I say giving him a chance to say something. I wait and he doesn't do anything, so I guess he doesn't like me. He was just attracted to me, but he doesn't actually like me. So I hold out my hand for him to shake and at the same time he leans in for a hug. Then I lean in for a hug and at the same time he holds his hand out for me to shake. We just high five awkwardly and I walk upstairs disappointed.

Barry's POV

What the hell was that? A high five is the best I can do? I mean she walks out jaw dropping, we have an amazing time bowling, I get her the coffee she loves, I walk her back to her apartment and then I end up high fiving her! I groan. Maybe she doesn't like me like I thought she did... Great Barry. You messed up another possible relationship!

3rd Person POV

The next day Mystic Raven stands atop of a tall building looking at over the city vowing she will protect it to the best of her ability, now that she is a super hero. Her cute mini skirt sways in the wind as she gets ready to practice her flying some more. She wasn't really worried about the skirt lifting up, because of her black tights underneath. She was still excited that she flown last time and she couldn't wait to try again! She really didn't think it would work. With determination Mystic Raven gathers her magic and steps off the building and hovers in midair. She gently floats in place and grins widely. She looks down at her sandaled feet and wiggles her toes, her pedicure glistening in the sun.

Mystic Raven then lifts her arms and slowly rises higher and higher into the sky until she is level with the tallest building in the city. She giggles then concentrates as she starts zooming around the building like a rocket going around in circles as her mini skirt flaps around her like a cape. Soon Mystic Raven is flying around all the city, making sure to avoid the more populated parts of the city. The few people she sees, smile and wave. Mystic Raven's heart swells with pride as she waves back and smiles at them. She happens to see a red blur streaking across the city. "That must be Flash!" She thinks to herself. "I know I can catch him!" she says out loud before zooming off.

Instantly she changes direction from where she was heading and zooms down to where Flash is running. Mystic Raven flies up alongside Flash matching his speed and says "What's the hurry red? You late for a date?" Mystic Raven teases. Flash does a double take at seeing the Mystic Raven flying next to him and easily keeping up with his speed! Flash looks at her and grins, "Hi Mystic Raven!" Nice seeing you again and no I am not running late for a date. In fact I was just stretching my legs and decided to go for a run. Gotta stay in shape after all!" Mystic Raven just laughs as she continues to fly next to Flash the world around her a blur at the speeds they are going at. "I am sure that is not a problem for you handsome," The Mystic Raven teases him. Flash just smirks and says "Want to race back to Star Labs? I bet I am faster running then you are flying!" Mystic Raven grins behind her domino mask as her long raven hair twirls in the wind. "You are on Flash! What are the stakes?" The Mystic Raven says. Flash grins and says "If I win you take off your mask and tell me who you really are!" "And what about if I win? Can I have anything I want?" The Mystic Raven asks with a raised eyebrow. "Anything!" The Flash replies confidently. Mystic Raven smirks as she flies next to Flash. "You are sure are cocky aren't you."

I actually find his arrogance attractive. He's so positive he can win. Barry doesn't like me anymore, so what harm can a kiss with a very nice and heroic superhero do?

"Ok," She stops and ponders before smiling widely, "If I win I get a kiss!" Flash does a double take at her as he superspeeds. "You don't want to know who I really am if you win?" The Flash asks surprised.

Mystic Raven laughs. "Don't worry your pretty little head about that. I'm sure I'll find out soon enough. I will unmask you another way of that I promise! Though you won't be unmasking me for sometime Flash! Now let's race! Unless you're chicken!"

Mystic Raven then puts on a burst of speed and flies ahead of Flash as they turn a corner and race across a freeway zipping around cars and people like they are not even there. Flash races to catch up and pulls ahead of Mystic Raven as they reach the center of the city. "I told you I am faster!" Flash shouts to Mystic Raven as he speeds up with everything he has. "This is the fastest I have ever gone!" The Flash thinks to himself as his body goes into overdrive.

Flash looks over his shoulder and barely sees Mystic Raven in the distance as he leaves her behind. The Mystic Raven shakes her head and says "I don't think so Flash!" Mystic Raven taps her magic again and instantly flies even faster to catch up to Flash. Within a second she flies past Flash leaving a colorful shimmering trail in her wake. Flash is definitely surprised as he cannot catch up to the flying witch no matter how fast he runs!

Mystic Raven soon lands in front of Star Labs looking tired but not nearly as tired as someone else. The Flash appears a few seconds later and looking like he went three rounds with Gorilla Grodd! Flash stops in front of Mystic Raven holding his sides as he catches his breath. "Now you were saying Flash?" Mystic Raven says while grinning coyly. "Ok ok so maybe I had a off day! We will have a rematch when I am feeling better." Flash says while pouting. He can't believe he lost! 'Him pouting is really cute though,' The Mystic Raven thinks with a sigh.

"Sure Flash whatever you say. I do believe you owe me a kiss now and I will always collect!" Mystic Raven grins as she steps right up to Flash and rises on her tippy toes to kiss him soundly on the lips. Instantly his knees buckle as he feels lightheaded and Mystic Raven puts her arms around his neck and she continues to kiss him. After a minutes or so Mystic Raven steps back and giggles at seeing Flash dazed. "Not bad Flash! Maybe we'll get to do that again sometime. Come on let go inside and see the gang." Mystic Raven says as she turns around and waits so they can head inside. "Don't tell Arsenal though! He might go all protective brother on you and I think you look better without an arrow sticking out of you." Flash just nods still unable to say anything and thinking 'Wow what a kiss! I haven't really felt this attracted to anyone. Anyone other than Ashmi that is.'

Ashmi's POV

That race was exhilarating. I didn't even thinking I could fly that well. And when I was flying next to him, it felt like anything was possible. And that kiss! It reminded me of Barry actually. The kiss left me tingling and I felt sparks and electricity and saw fireworks, just like I do when Barry kisses me. Is it weird that I'm so attracted to two different people? And they both make me feel special?

I mean I like Barry, but he's in love with Iris. He doesn't even like me! I mean for god's sake, he had the opportunity to kiss me and we ended up high fiving! And can I really move on with the Flash? I mean I don't even know who he really is? What if it was just mutual attraction? What if we don't get along as normal people? He doesn't even know who I really am... Who's behind the mask anyway.

They both know sides of me, but neither of them know both of me. And I don't know if I'm ready to let them know just yet anyway.

Barry's POV

The race was great. And this kiss was wow! I actually didn't mind losing that bet. But now I'm even more curious to who she is. Considering how reluctant she is to tell us. To tell me. I think I might like her. Is it possible to like someone you don't even know? Or to have feelings for two people but to feel like you're only seeing one side of them.

I like her. The Mystic Raven. I feel attracted to her. But I also like and I am attracted to Ashmi. What do I do? I mean Ashmi doesn't like me, I think... And I don't know what the Mystic Raven thinks about me either. And I don't think I can be with her, I mean I don't even really know her. I just wish there was some way I could figure this out. I just wish there was a sign to tell me who I should pick.

I will figure out who she is. I will figure out who I meant to be with. I will figure out what I want. And I will do it at lightning speed!

My phone beeps and I see a message from Caitlin.

SOS. Call Mystic Raven, you have the phone with you.

I send a quick reply and then I groan as I realize I told Ashmi I'd meet her for coffee. Damn it!

Barry: Hey! I won't make it for coffee today, can we meet later maybe :)?

Ashmi: Sure. Later then :)!

And then I quickly send a message to Mystic Raven.

Flash: You free? We've got some bad guys to take care of =D!

Mystic Raven: Yeah I am, now anyway. Come pick me up, rooftop ;)!

I drop the phone of at STAR labs for now and flash to the rooftop to pick up the Mystic Raven.

Ashmi's POV

So I was right about him not liking me. He just cancelled on me and barely even made a real excuse. I sigh and groan. I was ready leave Jitters and to just get back to bed when I get a message from the Flash. I become the Mystic Raven and head to the rooftop. He wants to hangout with me a whole lot more than Barry Allen does, even though we're just fighting bad guys.

"Hey Flash," I grin, "You ready to go?" "Hey Raven," He grins right back, "I'm game if you are." "Let's go then," I say. He picks me up and we flash around the city, fighting crime and being superheroes.

After we stopped multiple robberies and a few other crimes, he flashes us back to the rooftop. "You know what I love about this place?" I say looking at him. "What?" He asks curiously. "The stars," l smile, "The view is just amazing and so beautiful." "Yeah it is," He says sincerely, looking at me. I blush. I turn towards him and look at him. He's red suit with lightning bolts. You can't see much about him, but you can see some things. His eyes for one, they're green and sparkling and tell a story of their own. You can see the happiness in them, but you can also see the pain. You can see his lips too, they're pink and kissable. I'm trying my hardest to resist. I may not know who he really is, but I know how he feels about being a superhero and how we can't always to true to ourselves and to our city. And then there's Barry. I'm still hung up on him, even though we didn't date and I wasn't his girlfriend. I just felt like I've known him all my life. And I'm hung up on him and he doesn't even like me. Not in the way I like him anyway.

Wow, you're great at picking guys - A superhero you don't really know and a guy that's in love with someone else.

Barry's POV

Standing on that rooftop, right there and then I wanted to kiss her. So I did, I leaned down and my lips brushed slowly against hers. She kissed me back. It was amazing. I feel like I know her and like I understand her and she understands me. And I thought the kiss would feel wrong because I have feelings for Ashmi, but it felt so right. Her kisses remind me of the way Ashmi kisses me. And I'm not saying I'm in love with her, because that wouldn't be true. I mean I just realized I was in love with the idea of Iris more than Iris herself. And I felt insanely attracted to Ashmi and I really like her. I'm not saying I'm in love with her, I'm just saying I could be...

Author's Note: So what did you guys think?

Better or Worse?

Did you guys watch the Comic con panel? It was amazing. And for anyone who was wondering why Grant Gustin wasn't wearing Superman, worry no longer! He was wearing Superman socks :)! I really want a pair of those :(! Check out the pic and comment on his Instagram profile ( grantgust - no spaces)

What about the Flash and Mystic Raven scenes? Do you want to see anyone from Ashmi's past?

Ideas are appreciated and so are prompts. What other powers should she have? Ideas for new villains? How should she find out who the Flash is? I have an idea, but what do you guys think? Because in the next chapter Ashmi will find out the identity of the Flash ;)!
