Summer of '69-Bryan Adams
~two weeks later~
It was Saturday morning
A single golden leaf pirouetted down an invisible spiral of breeze, spinning through the air as it let itself be carried down. It shook slightly, as if it could have been whisked away any second by the grip of the rising lay cold wind, but it kept floating down the twirling course.
It blew past Frosts face and landed lightly on the ground, the shiny, vibrant colour standing out against the ambers and bronzes beneath light danced off the leaf making it appear as if it were made of gold.
It was so delicate, Frost wanted to reach down and pick it up and hold it close to her heart, smoothing out any creases, but something told her that it belonged there,Among the piles of leaves yet to fall and be piled. This corpse of what was once a summer.
She pivoted on her heel and headed back to her 'Ice Boutique' which was finally named by Lexi because frost just could not make up her mind.
The business wasn't blowing up per se ,but she had occasional customers coming in and picking up small trinkets and objet d'art which filled the racks and shelves.
Felicity had been coming over more often,forging a strong friendship between the two she ended up babbling about Oliver but nowadays (unlike when she was drunk) Felicity would try sculpting (and fail miserably) with Crystal.
Frost would fix a thing here or there with her powers and make the work a bit more better when felicity had her back turned to frost searching for her misplaced tools.
She turned around 7th avenue into the 8th which conjoined with aspen street ,Hence 8th and aspen.
She spotted two figures getting out of an expensive black Car whose brand frost could not make out because she was too captivated by the faces of the two visitors.
She recognised one ,but she couldn't make out the other
She teleported herself inside the shop and shrugged her jacket off ,absorbing the incredulous heat the heating system pumped out day and night much to the pity of the cold winds outside.
She switched off the central heating system but kept the floor heated by system checked her hair and
The bell,chimed,alerting frost .She came funbling down the stairs in her jeans and a shirt not caring to see which one it was before she had thrown it was a 'Flash' shirt with the flashs symbol on the mentally cursed her sub consciousness for picking that shirt but the bell chimed ,alerting her that she didn't have time to change into anything else.
She sprinted down the stairs
"Mayor sir!?" she suddenly felt shy and embarrassed for wearing a flash shirt on front of the green arrow
"I apologise for disturbing so early in the morning ,I came to give you something"
Oliver held out a small white envelope sealed with a clear circular piece of tape.
she noticed someone with him...someone she never expected to see for a long time
"and you are ?" she acted surprised
"Barry Allen"he held his gand out and she shook flowed from his hand and she craved for,the heat
"Thank you so much sir."She fiddled with the tape ,having long nails was always a ripped the tape off finally after three seconds of awakward pulled an invite out with her name on it
She furrowed her brows and looked at the blonde vigilante
"actually I also came to apologise for being... a little rude that day."Oliver spoke humbly
"that's quite alright,mayor sir"
"its Oliver queen please"
a mutual silence filled the room,Oliver looked flushed against Barry's was paleness he had dark circles under his eyes they were puffy.
frost clears her throat and gestures,for them to follow
"I have the statue ready, you haven't given me an address to deliver to"
she pointed at the statue in the corner of the room,life smiled at it ,but Barry was interested in the large half,made sculpture in the centre of the work room
"what is this?" he touched the ice,and it melted slightly ,he took his fingers away before he could ruin then went to the eagle she was making
"my piece for the museum's summer charity " it was so odd talking to Barry...she had a bad feeling about him
"Its perfect ,you are very talented indeed " Oliver commented ,still admiring the Black Siren's sculpture
Barry snapped his eyes up at the mention of frost
"The delivery address is on the invite"
Oliver gestured to the invite frost clutched in her hand.
"Oh ok ,I'll have it sent by tonight
"I would like you to come to the party tomorrow" frost look at the the invite unsurely
"mayor sir ,this is too much ,I cant possibly accept to party of such high level"
"its just friends,and it would be quite nice if you come,felicity insists"
She bit down on her lip .Despite being new to this life ,she felt comfortable around her old friends ...well ,some of them at least
"well thank you ,I'll be there,thank you"
Oliver smiled and walked out of the lingered a minute konger ,staring the ice work as if he was reminded of something
"I didn't get your name?"
"Crystal frost ,but you can call me crys" right now she just wanted,to crush the transmogrifier and reveal she was killer frost but she knew this wasn't time remenant Barry ,it was the real Barry.
"Nice to meet you crys" Barry smiled one of his famous grins ,but you could see the pain in his eyes,iris west was dead...
"I guess I will see you at the party tomorrow" so that's why he was here .Frost smiled and Barry left ,but before he glimpsed at one of the small ice eifell towers ,then he left to catch up with Oliver.
They got into the back side and the. Ar roared to life ,the driver driving away from the unit.
Frost ,inside was breaking her head on what to wear,or should she even opened the invite and it had the date ,time and location and a dress code
"party wear,perfect"she rolled her eyes and then remembered Barry would be Barry was there,that meant cisco would be she couldn't face them...she had to do something ...she wore a different face ,the two ,nor anyone else would recognise her ,she didn't need to went up the her loft and pluucked out a dress from the was peacock blue and came down to her knee and had vertical frills .She paired it with black stilettos and a pair of peacock feather glanced at her watch,it was almost 11 and she had to finish the other piece for the museum along with an order from a luxury hotel for a birthday party.
She started on those two ,managing to finish the matter by the end of the day and finishing half of the former.
she sighed and sat down on the snow.
This was tiring ,but atleast she didn't have to think of anything else...
