Prompt #11

Who makes fun of the other for having a crush on them, and who has to remind them that they are in a relationship?

Sara stretched in her jump seat as it turned around to face her crew. Her eyes quickly found her husband's. Leonard Snart was seated at weapons control, his station since a month after his miraculous return nearly a year before. He gave her an easy smirk, one she lovingly returned. Next her attention was turned to her navigator, Mick Rory. Though his face was as blank as ever, she knew he was excited to be home for a bit; she could see it in his eyes. He finally had someone waiting for him, and though it had only been a couple of months since he'd been back for a visit, he was anxious to see his girlfriend once again. Her eyes drifted across the others, each looking as excited and relieved as she felt. It was time for a well-deserved break after the insanity that they'd been through on their latest mission.

"Well, everyone, we have arrived." Sara stood and leaned against the panel beside her husband. The fact that the thief was her husband was a secret that no one outside her crew, her father, and Lisa knew.

The time they'd landed was not a full year since they'd been there the last to announce Leonard's death status had changed to not dead. With much flurry of activity and excitement, everyone disembarked for home.

The next morning, Lisa entered Len and Sara's apartment. "I called and left a message, you have no excuse for not being decent, brother and sister mine," she called through the space.

Moments later, Leonard stepped out of their bedroom. "After some debate, Sara and I have decided we are skipping the little party you warned us about."

His sister rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms over her chest. "You say that like you were given a choice in coming or not. I wasn't warning you, I was telling you since the Star City crew is coming along with the Earth 38 group. You know if you don't show up, Quentin and I won't be responsible for Ray announcing your marriage to Sara."

The man sighed because she was sadly correct. Raymond was wanting to announce the wedding to everyone. In fact, he'd pouted at not being able to throw the large event he wanted with all the superhero crews involved. They'd had to actively restrain him when he told them he was going to Saints and Sinners to find some of Len's friends from before his time with the Legends. The Rogues wouldn't have taken well to the bubbly scientist, they were all sure of it.

"Fine," he waved the notion away that he was anything more than bored with the concept, "I'm sure Sara will want to see her father and friends anyway."

"You've got that right, Snart," came the voice of his wife in their bedroom door. She sauntered toward the siblings and let herself be pulled into a hug by the younger. When they pulled away, she smirked at her husband. "Besides, I really want to show you off to more than just our crew. They've started ignoring us now."

Len snorted as he rolled his eyes. "I've already said I'd go."

Sara smiled impishly as she stretched up to kiss her husband. Lisa rolled her eyes as her brother easily sunk into the kiss. After a couple of minutes, she cleared her throat. "Still here, guys," she grumbled good naturedly.

The blonde laughed as she pulled away from the man. "So, the little get together is going to be at STAR labs?"

Lisa nodded, "Most room, apparently. Barry did suggest the hanger, but it would take more to fix up."

That made sense, of course the couple wondered just what all the STAR labs crew was going to do for this little party. With a shake of their heads, the two went on to prepare for the social interactions of the day.

That night, Leonard and Sara met Mick, Caitlyn, and Lisa outside of STAR labs. Len and Mick smirked at each other as they all entered. Once inside, Len felt himself begin to case the place, just as he always did, to see what was new and what all had changed.

Suddenly, his best friend called out, "Skirt!" before putting a hand in the middle of his back and pushing him forward. "You haven't got to meet Skirt yet. You were dead when she came and helped us with the aliens and the Nazis." There was a manic grin on the pyro's face. "She's got x-ray vision, Lenny."

Leonard rolled his eyes. Leave it to Mick to focus on something like that. He was led to stand in front of a petite blonde with glasses on and a wide smile on his face.

"Mick!" She lunged forward and wrapped her arms around him, lifting the large man a few inches off the ground, and well, that was unexpected.

Mick's boisterous laughter washed over him. The larger man hugged her tightly once he was back on the ground. Once that was over he turned to the man he'd forced over. "Skirt, this is Leonard Snart, my old partner in crime. Boss, this is Skirt."

Len quirked an eyebrow at the blonde who blushed. He smirked, "It's Len by the way." He held out his hand for a shake.

She smiled brightly. "Kara Danvers. It's great to finally meet you! Barry was so upset when he was told you had died back during the Dominators attack."

"So, I've been told. The Speedster hug was all the evidence I needed that he missed me," he shook his head.

Kara giggled, "That sounds like Barry."

"So," Leonard drawled, "Barry drug you all the way from another Earth to help clean up a mess here?"

She nodded. "My planet dealt with the Dominators before. They wiped out a lot of our population before a virus was produced to fight back. A lot of lives were lost on both sides."

The ex-thief was quiet for a moment. "So, they love trying to take out Earths in every edge of the multiverse? Barry brought you here because of the virus your Earth made?" It didn't seem like Barry, but Len didn't really know how desperate the younger man had been.

Kara shook her head, "No, Barry came and got me to have an alien on their side. I'm not originally from Earth. I'm from Krypton. I was sent away with my cousin before it exploded. My cousin and I are all that are left of our planet, that we know of."

Len frowned. "Sorry to hear that. But, got to admit, I never would have pegged you as an alien."

She smiled, "Yeah, it's easy to blend in on my Earth, fortunately. I have to use these glasses," she tapped the glasses on her face, "to block my x-ray vision. They're lead lined."

"Yeah," he drawled, "Mick mentioned something about that little ability." He smirked at the preppy girl, "That's one that would be real useful on a heist."

Kara blinked before she began to laugh. "I have to say, I like that idea much better than Mick's!"

The large man grumbled, "Just asked if you could see people's bits with those peepers."

Len rolled his eyes and shook his head. He placed a hand in his best friend's shoulder, giving it a small squeeze. "I'm sure you weren't the only one thinking it, and I'm sure it wasn't the first time she'd heard it."

The woman blushed, "Actually, it was. My cousin has heard it a few times, but until a couple of years ago, I hadn't really told anyone except my adopted family and my cousin's about my powers."

Leonard hummed in understanding. "People don't exactly take nicely to those that are different. I know that very well."

Kara nodded before smiling mischievously, and Len wondered just how much time she'd spent with Mick the last time they were both in town. The woman said, "So, I heard how Mick got the name Heatwave. How'd you get the name Captain Cold?"

Ah, so his friend used the blunt family history review explanation, not the one based off the fact that he was an arsonist and had the Heat gun. He shook his head, "It was Ramon's idea; I just embraced it. The first heist of mine Barry stopped, I used a cryogenic fluid to instantly freeze the back door of an armored truck. Shortly after, I was...gifted my Cold gun."

Barry interrupted with, "And then this dork donned a freaking arctic parka and ski goggles, stole a diamond, and derailed a train in an overly dramatic fashion." The younger man draped an arm across Len's shoulders causing the ice user to adopt quite the put-upon look.

Kara laughed at the look just as Sara came over, and Barry felt the man shift to touch the small woman. "Is Len anything but overly dramatic?"

Leonard shrugged off Barry's arm only to rest his own along Sara's back. "So says the assassin quite content to cause a stir at every time period we visit."

The blonde in question rolled her eyes as she leaned slightly further into his side. Shortly after the little cluster separated.

For the next couple of hours, the groups mingled more as food was brought in. Those not knowing Sara and Len's relationship status were more than a little curious as to why one would track the other in the crowd, as if making sure they were still there, and why every time they came back together they had to be in physical contact with the other.

Finally, near the end of the night, Sara was standing around talking with her friends from Star City. Kara joined their group just as Barry and Oliver did. Oliver wrapped an arm around Felicity's waist. Sara was glad to see her friends back together and married even. She did feel it wasn't fair how they hijacked Barry and Iris' day, but no one ever accused Oliver of being courteous. Leonard then stepped over, taking his place at Sara's side, and draping his long arm across her shoulders. She leaned into him, enjoying his warmth and support.

Kara watched the two and finally, couldn't stop herself. "What's going on with you two? You can't not touch each other every time you meet." She waved her hands wildly, gesturing at the two of them. "It's been going on all night. So, what's up with you two?"

Sara smiled at her conspiringly, "Leonard here has a crush on me, Kara. It's really cute, but sometimes he's just needy."

All eyes turned to the tall man in surprise even as he rolled his own. "Sara, would you stop announcing it that way? Can't you just simply tell them we're married?"

That left a stunned silence all around them. Leonard could see the group searching them both for signs as if it were true or not. Barry and Kara were the first to see the rings they both wore and matching smiles bloomed across their lips. Oliver was next, and he looked more like someone that was shocked they'd never noticed something so obvious. Felicity and Thea squealed at the sight and darted forward to look at the matching onyx bands. Len's had Sterling silver snowflake inlays while Sara's had diamond-white and blue-canary inlays. Both were simple and beautiful.

Thea looked up at them. "Where did you even find these rings?"

Sara smiled softly as she looked at them once again. "Len found all the materials and made them himself." A mischievous smile slowly spread over her lips. "He is very good with his hands."

Oliver snorted with an eye roll. Barry choked on the swallow of drink he'd just taken. Kara squeaked, while Felicity laughed. Thea gave a sound that was somehow jealous.

Caitlyn and Mick walked up as Oliver was smacking Barry on the back to dislodge the poorly swallowed drink. Caitlyn glanced around the group, noting their expressions. Then she looked to Len and Sara and noted how they were standing. "Wait," she turned to the others, "you just now realized they're married?"

Barry, a few couple of sharp intakes of breath, turned to her, "You knew?"

The woman shot back, "You didn't?"

The man pouted but didn't say anything because no, no he didn't. Felicity narrowed her eyes at her. "And what about you? Are you hiding a boy-toy from us?"

Mick snorted, "I ain't a boy, ponytail."

The group, outside the couple in question and the Snarts, froze in stunned silence until Kara's face broke out into a huge smile. She launched herself at the large man, wrapping her arms around him. "I'm so happy for you, Mick!"

She quickly dove on Caitlyn next, then Sara. Leonard really should have seen it coming, but he wasn't sure it would have mattered since she literally flew at him. When she hugged him, he wondered vaguely if she'd broken any of his ribs, but it shockingly didn't send his proximity alarms screaming. He patted her back awkwardly. He was still tense, but not nearly as he normally would be.

She pulled away, still smiling brightly. "You both deserve to be happy, Leonard, and I'm so glad you get to be happy together." She hugged him again because she felt like he was someone that hadn't had enough of them in his life. And Barry may have needed someone to rant and talk to after he'd found out the man had been killed saving the world and giving it back free will.

Mick smirked as word quickly spread around the group that Sara and Len were married and that he and Caitlyn were together. Many congratulations we're tossed around. Everyone was extremely happy for the two of them; it was a little overwhelming, especially for Leonard, and Mick could read it all easily. He knew his best friend was a little uncomfortable, but he had to add just a little bit more. I mean, what are best friends and partners for? "Hey, Boss." The other man turned to look at him. "If they're this excited about you and Blondie marrying, how do you think they'll take the two kids you're adopting?"

The place went silent, Barry yelled "What?!", Leonard groaned, and Mick laughed.
