You and Amelia are right, so I changed their age into 8 years old.

Hope you enjoy the rest of the story. 😊


Barry stood in a aisle of notebooks and pens while his godfather,Joe West,searched on the mugs section, when the bell of the gift shop rang

"Hello Tina!" the man greeted the woman in the counter and gave her a bouquet of flowers.

"Oh Hello Jay! " she smiled "Smart move. You know that I work in a gift shop but the store doesn't offer flowers so you bought me one." The woman commented as she stared into the flowers.

"You didn't like it ?" The man asked her and she replied "Of course I do !" then she laughed.

"So how was the interview in the Mercury labs ?"

"I got in."

"Well congrats ! I know you can do it. So are you free tonight ? Let's celebrate."

"I'll think about it." She winked at him.

Barry couldn't find the perfect gift so he walked towards the counter to search for more. The man and the woman is enganged in a chat when the woman asked him "Hello young man... What do you need ?"

Barry smiled at the woman. "Hello Ms… I'm just searching for anything that suits for my best friend." Meanwhile, Joe walked beside Barry.

"Awww what a handsome and polite young man you are." She looked at the man and pointed at him which made the man look at him.

Barry saw the man's face and opened his mouth due to the man's resemblance with his father.

"Hello Jay." Joe greeted the man.

"Good Day Joe. It seems like your young man's in a little shock." He commented in him. "Have we I met him before or do I know him?"

"Ssssh Jay Garrick, you always commit that aura that amaze me. Maybe that works for our little man too." She tease him.

"I'm sorry Mr, But you look like my father. You have a little resemblance."

"I can say your father is handsome because he looks like me. No doubt you are handsome too." The man joked at him.

"He's right, you resembles like his father. So he's in a little shock." Joe patted Barry's back.

"Anyway, you might want to take a look at the button pins here. It's a new addition to the shop." The woman presented a dozen of button pins piled up in bowl.

"Thank you." Barry looked at them and searched until he find a red button pin that has a lightning bolt sign with it.

"I'll take this one." Barry smiled as he gave it to the woman.

"That will be 50 cents. Is your friend a boy or a girl ?"

Barry paid and replied "A girl."

The woman get her bouquet and pick one of the white roses. She fixed it before giving it to Barry and said "Here take it, it symbolizes purity just like your friendship. And Girls like flowers." She winked at him.

"Thank you." Barry's smile grew wider.

"Goodbye Tina and Jay." Joe waved the two goodbye as he and Barry leave the gift shop.


"There's Caitlin !" Cisco stood up as he points where Caitlin and her parents are. Barry also stood up and approached Caitlin.

"Hey Caitlin !" The two hugged Caitlin.

"It seems like you guys arrived here earlier, seems like you're the one who will take a train and a plane to France." Caitlin remarked at them being earlier than her.

"We just don't want to miss the last time we'll be together before you move into France." Cisco replied.

"Hello Boys." Caitlin's father patted their heads.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Snow." They greeted and smiled.

"Caitlin, we'll just buy some snacks. The train will be here in 10 minutes." Caitlin's mother told her and walked away with her father.

"I can't believe you're leaving." Barry bowed down.

"Awww Barry, We can still communicate. I'll send you two letters." Caitlin patted his back.

"Now only 9 minutes and 30…29…28 left." Cisco said as he stares in his watch.

"Hey Cisco! Don't count time, spend it wisely." Barry commented.

"Says the boy who always manipulates time." Cisco rolled his eyes.

"I'm going to miss arguments between you two." Caitlin pouted.

"We're going to miss you so much." Barry said to her as his eyes start to water.

Cisco handed Caitlin a music box "Caitlin, hope you like it. I put another music in that." He said as he twist the knob.

Caitlin opened the box and stared. "This is so beautiful Cisco."

"You're always welcome Caitlin." Cisco put on a lollipop on his mouth.

"Of course I also have my gift for you." Barry searched in his pockets.

"Oh. I forgot it." His eyes grew wide and his heart began to race.

He bend down under to bench, walked through the bushes and even searched in Cisco.

"Dude." Cisco held his arms up.

"Shhhh ! I need to find it." Barry continued to search in Cisco.

Caitlin pulled his arm and turned his body facing her. "Barry. It's okay. Whatever it is. Your presence alone is a huge gift for me. I always appreciate whatever you guys do for me. Even just being there for me."

"But…" Barry cut in.

"Shhhhh." Caitlin put her index finger in front of his lips. "No more buts."

"Buts. PFFFFT" Cisco tried not to laugh but Caitlin bursted out laughing.

"Buts" Barry also laughed with them.

"Anyway, it is a rose." Barry scratch the back of his neck. "But, I have another one."

"Barry could you please stop using the b word. My stomach hurts !" Cisco said while laughing while Caitlin nudged him. "Oww."

Barry moved closer to Caitlin and attached the button pin he had bought earlier "Caitlin." He put his hands on her arms. "I give you my Flash logo. Cisco made some advancements with it." Cisco narrowed his eyebrows,shrugged and opened his mouth to say something but Barry interrupted him. "Whenever you're happy,sad, excited, whenever you need to someone to talk to, if you need a helping hand, when you need a compliment just press it and I'll will be there in a Flash !" He smiled.

"Thank you so much Barry…" her tears are starting to fall "…and Cisco" she looked at Cisco while he replied with a salute.

"A hug will be most appreciated." Barry said.

Caitlin tightly wrapped her arms around him. Her tears are starting to flood Barry's jacket but Barry didn't mind. She rest her head on Barry's chest and cry louder. Barry just patted her back and slowly swayed their bodies.

"Mind if I join ?" Cisco moved closer to them and joined the hug.

"I'm…I'm going to miss you guys." Caitlin is still crying.

"We're going to miss you the most." Cisco sais while trying to hold his tears.

"If this hug will stop you from leaving, I'm going to glue myself here and hug you forever Caitlin !" Cisco hugged them tighter.

Barry and Caitlin just laughed at him.

"Caitlin, ready your things. The train will arrive soon." Upon hearing these words, the three removed themselves from the hug.

"Can we take a photo ?" Cisco brought out a camera.

"Sureee !" Caitlin replied as she smiled to the camera.

The three took a lot of photos.

The train already arrived and Caitlin waved them goodbye
