So to all those Karry/SuperFlash fans who were quite unhappy about Barry and Kara not spending time together, That wasn't intentional. So I hope this chapter might give you guys a bit of relaxation, I hope it does (fingers crossed)
CHAPTER 22- A DAY OFF
"Then...who was it?" Kara and Barry said at the same time.
"That's the million dollar question!" Felicity said. "And of course we need to find them because they are the only ones who might give us the answers" Felicity said as everyone nodded.
"So how do we do that?" Joe asked.
"I've been trying to trace out the signal from which he or she who helped us was working... But right now, all that have gone in vain... I've already talked to Alex about this and Winn is also on this work... So hopefully..." Felicity babbled and then got back at striking the keys on the computer.
"Yeah Hopefully.." Jessie mumbled.
Unknown Location:
The Boss was sitting on a chair that looked like a throne, when an agent walked into the dark room.
"Sir, Mr.Allen is awake" He said.
The boss who had his eyes closed, until then, opened suddenly with a great amount of shock on his face.
"How did it happen?... He wasn't supposed to...This early?" The boss shouted at the man.
"Something...Something went wrong with Napier... Someone has interfered with my plan" The boss shook and stood from the throne when suddenly the lights flickered. Meanwhile, Fairchild was on her computer looking at her boss talking to the agent and smirked.
Central City Police Department-Central City:
After the talk at the labs, Joe walked into the precinct. He was so into his mind that he didn't reply to Captain Singh, who was speaking to him.
"Joe?" Singh shook him. Joe suddenly came out of his mind "What are you thinking?"
"Sorry Captain, Just some family stuff" Joe lied.
"You mean Allen?... How's he?... I hope he's good" Singh said which made Joe jump but he tried to act unknowingly.
"Ba..Barry?... He's off today...busy with fishing" Singh just laughed at what Joe said.
"You mean catching big fishes" Captain said.
"Big fishes?" Joe looked on puzzled.
"Oh C'mon Joe, you couldn't come up with any other excuse? You think I don't know."
"I..I don't understand" Joe said.
"I know that Barry is The Flash!" Singh said and Joe's face blanked.
"What? How?"
"Remember I'm a detective as well Joe! I have seen him catch those meta sharks. You thought I couldn't find out the match outs?" Singh said and Joe accepted his defeat and nodded his head.
"He's good now... but Caitlin suggests he needs to rest"
"Ask him to take care... But don't tell Barry that I know that he's the flash" Singh whispered.
"Why?" Joe asked.
"Just you know... He makes lame excuses every time he comes late and all...I could use some laugh in this busy work" Singh laughed and Joe laughed back as well. Singh patted on Joe's back and went back to his office.
STAR LABS:
Barry was in star labs and Caitlin was finishing her final check up for the day.
"So? I'm good?" Barry asked.
"Yeah, you're better than before... But that doesn't mean you can start running around as Flash again. Flash business needs to have a break..for a while!" Caitlin ordered and Barry nodded his head.
Barry came forward and hugged her.
"Thanks Cait... thanks for always patching me up" Caitlin wanted to stay in his arms forever but Barry came apart and smiled and she smiled back.
"Good night Cait" Barry said and started walking out when Caitlin stopped him.
"Barr... Can I tell you something?"
"Of course Cait!" Barry turned around.
"I..I think you should go to Kara... She blames herself for what happened.. I bashed on her unreasonably.." Caitlin said with her head low. Barry came forward and took her face in his hands.
"Hey..I know what would have made you to yell at her... She understands it as well... I'm gonna take your suggestion now and go to Kara" Barry said and Caitlin nodded her head.
.
Felicity walked into the loft to see Caitlin sulking with a glass of wine.
"Caitlin.. what are you doing?" Felicity asked reaching her.
"Umm..Nothing" Caitlin said lifting her head.
"Don't lie and tell me what's going on in your mind" Felicity asked taking out the wine glass from her hand.
"I'm fine... Barry's better now" Caitlin said and tried taking back the glass but Felicity pushed it out of her reach.
"No, You're not fine... If you are, you wouldn't be lying here and drinking out"
"Fel! I'm absolutely fine" Caitlin said.
"I know what you said to Barry earlier... Why did you do that? Why did you ask him to go to Kara?" Felicity asked.
"Why should she become the victim here? If she makes him happy, I'm okay with it... All we ever want is to keep our loved ones happy and safe isn't it?"
"But seeing them like this is..is hurting you" Felicity said but Caitlin stopped her.
"This is something I've decided... I'm not going to take my frustration on her"
"Then why are you sulking ?" Felicity asked.
"What?...I'm not sulking..I'm just worried about what's going to happen... there's no way a guy like Charles got hold of Kyrptonite... There is someone behind this who helped him" Caitlin said and Felicity nodded.
"We'll find them" Felicity said squeezing Caitlin's hand. Caitlin just gave a weak smile.
"Now will you give me back my wine glass?" Caitlin laughed. Felicity pushed back her glass.
"I'm gonna pour one for me as well" Felicity said taking a glass for herself and they both started laughing talking.
National City:
Kara was in her loft when someone knocked the door, she x-rayed it to see Barry. She opened the door and hugged him immediately.
"What are you doing here?... You were supposed to be resting" Kara asked after taking him inside.
"Thought I could give you this" Barry took out the bag he's been holding it to reveal pot stickers. Kara's face immediately lit up. She started eating them and Barry smiled .
"But, you need to rest Barry" Kara said.
"I am resting now!" Barry said "So? Is the couch empty for today?" Barry asked and Kara smiled.
"Barry.. you're sleeping with me... In my bed ... You cannot rest in the couch... Not with your present condition" Kara said smirking and Barry smiled.
"As you wish Girl of steel" Barry laughed.
After their food, Kara snuggled with Barry in her bed. She rested her head on his chest.
"How are you feeling now?" Barry asked and Kara looked up to his eyes.
"How am I feeling now? I'm not the one who took a bomb in the face!.. you tell me how are you feeling now" Kara said.
"I'm fine Kara... But you didn't answer my question"
"I... I don't understand" Kara said.
"About Cait...she told me what happened between you two.. She might have gotten terrified after seeing what happened... I'm sorry for her" Barry said taking her face in his hands.
"Barr, I'm not angry on Cait... I know how important you both are to each other... I was never angry on her... I was angry on myself that I was careless and wh..what would have happened if you didn't survive or get back... I'm sorry!" Kara started crying and Barry quickly wiped her tears and took her in to his arms again.
"Don't... Don't blame yourself for things which were not entirely your fault... I've learned that hard way" Barry said remembering all the times he blamed himself for all the mistakes happened. He slowly patted her back as Kara snuggled more into his arms.
"I..Love you Barry" Kara whispered and slowly drifted off to sleep in his arms. Barry slowly kissed her temple.
The next morning, Kara woke up to see herself alone in her bed. She wanted to spend time with Barry but things weren't working out. Kara groaned and jumped back on to bed and buried her head in the pillow.
"Kara? You awake?" Kara heard Barry shouting. She rose from the bed smiling.
"Barry.. I thought you left" Kara said walking past her room towards the kitchen to find Barry making breakfast.
"No, I'm making breakfast for us" Barry said smiling while handling the bacon on the pan.
"You were supposed to take rest!" Kara said sitting across the counter.
"I'm fine, now go freshen up, we have a lot to eat" Barry said laughing and Kara laughed back and went back to her room.
As they finished their breakfast, "You need to go back now.. don't you?" Kara asked putting out her puppy dog eyes.
"Save them for another day" Barry said laughing as Kara went back sadly.
"I said it because today I'm off duty" Barry said and Kara smiled returned a bit. "And that includes Flash duty as well.. It's a Dr. Caitlin Snow's strict orders and one thing I've learned all these years is not to break her orders" Barry finished smiling and Kara had a happy face.
"So what do you think we can do today?" Kara asked.
"May be we can decide when you can clear off your work schedule"
"Oh! Don't worry about that. I have Lena's back in that... She owns the company so she won't mind if I take a day off"
"Wait, I thought Lena sold the company to some of her friend" Barry said.
"It didn't happen here.. Lena still owns the company" Kara said.
"Good thing I think?" Barry asked as Kara nodded.
"So what do you have in your mind Scarlett Speedster?" Kara asked laughing.
"Oh, I have a lot in my mind.. Depends on what you want" Barry laughed...
