You want a second date between Barry and Kara, here you go. I just hope you like it.
Leave a review after reading, please. Feedback is always appreciated.
Special thanks to CallMeMiles, hi, NeoTyson, and Chevalier Lecteur for reviewing the previous chapter.
To Chevalier Lecteur: Yeah, I guess a second date between Flash and Supergirl before the identity reveals would've been better, but I just wanted to rush the Arrow V Flash storyline because, well, I was really eager to write it. As for Linda, I haven't forgotten about her. I just have to think about what to do with her storyline. I'll try to come with something. As for Reverse Flash and Zoom, I can promise you that they will meet at some point.
To hi: About what Barry and Kara did after school in the previous chapter, they never got that coffee date. You'll find out here.
Axel Walker strikes again. This time, he left a toy puppet for Winn that squirted paint all over his face. Knowing this is a slam about his father being a criminal, Winn chases Axel to spray him with his own toy. However, the two were stopped by a whistle, blown by Maggie Sawyer, Silverstone High's hall monitor.
"You know the rules, boys. No running in the hallway," said Maggie. "Now, care to explain?"
"Look at me," cried Winn, gesturing to his face, which was covered in green paint.
"I assume this is your work?" asked Maggie, looking at Axel.
"Guilty," said Axel.
"Winn, you're excused. Just don't do it again," said Maggie. "As for you, Walker, you're coming with me to the principal's office."
Maggie drags Axel to Principal Waller's office by grabbing his ear. Winn laughs as Axel whines in pain as he is dragged away.
"Winn."
Winn screams in fright as he turns around to see who called his name. It was Kara and Felicity, who both screamed when she saw the paint all over Winn's face.
"Um, hi, Kara. Hi, Felicity," greeted Winn, pretending he was okay. "What can I do for you ladies?"
"Our computer 'project'," said Felicity, using "project" as a key word for something secret.
"Oh, right," remembered Winn. "How about we meet at 6?"
"Okay," said Felicity.
Felicity walks away, while Kara looks at her and Winn suspiciously.
"Are you cheating on Siobhan?" asked Kara.
"What? No, I'm not," said Winn, trying to sound honest and failing to do so.
"Your heartbeat says you're lying," said Kara, crossing her arms.
"Okay, look. It's a secret, okay? Not the cheating-on-a-girlfriend kind of secret, but more like a secret-project kind of secret," said Winn. "Felicity and I are just using our combined computer skills to work on a program that she came up with, that's all."
Kara wasn't satisfied with the answer. Clearly, she wanted the truth.
"Hey, all she gave me was code, nothing more," said Winn. "Now, what can I do for you?"
"My new suit," said Kara. "For my date with..." She lowers her voice, checks for eavesdroppers, and says, "Flash."
"Oh, right. Got ya," said Winn. "I finished it this morning. I'll send it to your apartment the second the final bell rings."
"You're a real friend, Winn," said Kara, hugging Winn.
Winn hugs his friend back and smiles, happy to see her happy.
Meanwhile, Caitlin was in the science lab all by herself, mixing chemicals in secret. Well, not for long. Barry Allen entered the lab. Caitlin reacted by pointing her frost-colored hand at him, threatening to freeze him if he tried to use his speed against her.
"I'm not here to fight," said Barry.
"Then what do I owe the pleasure of this intrusion?" asked Caitlin.
"I, uh, have a date tonight," said Barry. "And I want this night to be perfect, so..."
"No attacks tonight," interrupted Caitlin, knowing what he was asking of her. "Don't worry, Flash. I wasn't planning on doing anything tonight."
"Thank you," said Barry.
Barry was about to leave the lab, until Caitlin spoke.
"Let me ask you something, Barry," said Caitlin. "You kept quiet about Killer Frost's identity, which I knew you would do. I was just expecting that you'd come to your senses sooner or later. Like Oliver said, you can't keep letting me drop more bodies."
"And I won't," said Barry. "I'll stop you."
Caitlin chuckled, amused by Barry's bravado. "You can't even find me unless a dead body has been reported."
"I just want my friend back," said Barry. "I miss her so much."
"Well, I don't miss you," said Caitlin. "We've only known each other for a few months, and yet you treat me as if I've been part of your whole life."
"We love you, Caitlin," said Barry. "We never give up on the people we love."
"Ever the hero, huh, Barry?" questioned Caitlin.
"Someone's gotta be," said Barry.
"And do you know what heroes get for trying to save the girl?" asked Caitlin.
"Uh, what would that be?" Barry had no idea.
Caitlin pulls Barry closer until their lips collided. Barry's insides started to freeze slowly as he struggled to escape the kiss. When he did, he falls to the ground, feeling too cold to stand up.
"Be careful which girl you choose to save, hero. You never if that girl can kill you with a simple kiss," warned Caitlin.
Barry grunted as he continued to shiver. Caitlin packs up her scientific equipment and leaves the classroom. On the way out, she passes by someone reading a science textbook, not knowing this someone was only pretending. It was Iris.
Iris had seen what happened through the glass window of the door. At first, she thought that Barry had found love with Caitlin, until something strange happened. It looked like Barry's face was turning blue. He was shivering, which can only happen if he's cold. She then wonders how a kiss would make him cold. She then remembers some reports about men who were killed by Killer Frost. Some of them were killed through internal freezing, caused orally. She can only draw up one conclusion from these clues.
"Caitlin is Killer Frost," realized Iris.
It was half an hour to eight o'clock and Kara was very excited for her second date with Barry. Well, more like "first" date with Barry Allen, because her first date was with The Flash, and she didn't even know who he was yet. This probably would've been their " She had received the box that contains her new suit, designed by Winn specifically for this occasion. Before she can open it, someone knocks on the door.
Kara answers the door and was surprised to be Barry.
"Hey," greeted Kara. "Um, it's not exactly 8 yet."
"Oh, uh, I came here to tell you something," said Barry. "I may have changed our plans for tonight."
"What do you mean?" asked Kara.
"I, uh, booked us a reservation at this fancy resturant... with Joe's help, of course," said Barry.
"What about the running-flying-donuts kind of date?" asked Kara.
"I just thought that since now we know each other's secret identities, we won't have to suit up for dates," said Barry. "Maybe we could try something normal."
"But Winn spent weeks on my new suit just for this occasion," said Kara, bummed. "But... if you really want a normal date, I'll go with it. Maybe I'll wear the suit on the next date."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner," said Barry. "Am I gonna be in the doghouse after this?"
"Too soon to tell," replied Kara. "I'm gonna dress up... in a dress. I'm sure there's something in there. Until then, you can just sit on the couch."
Barry sits down on the couch and watches some television while he waits for Kara. Les Miserables was on, and it currently at the part where Jean Valjean sings a soliloquy. Barry loved musicals. He used to watch them with his mother every week.
Barry's attention was captured by the sound of heels stepping on the stairs. He turns around to see Kara, wearing a sleeveless, red, short-skirt dress. Barry couldn't stop staring. She looked absolutely beautiful.
Kara twirls just to show off as she smiles at Barry.
"You look amazing," said Barry.
"Thanks," said Kara, blushing. "So, uh, should we get going? Alex is upstairs and I do 'not' want her to give you the overprotective sister speech."
"Why not?" asked Barry.
"Because I know you're a good guy, Barry," said Kara. "You're the most amazing guy I've ever met."
"I'm glad you think that," said Barry, scratching the back of his head.
To further assure him, Kara leans in and kisses him on the lips. Barry kisses her back, embracing her as well. They stopped kissing when they heard the sound of a camera. It came from Eliza Danvers, Kara's adopted mother. She took a picture of their kiss and she seemed happy to see them happy together.
"Really, mom?" questioned Kara.
"Don't worry. I won't tell Alex," promised Eliza. "So, this is the 'most amazing guy you ever met,' huh? Got a name?"
"Barry. Barry Allen," Barry introduced himself.
"Well, Barry, I just want you to know. Kara's curfew is 11, so just be sure you bring her back by then," said Eliza.
"No problem, Ms. Danvers," said Barry.
"Please, call me Eliza," said Eliza. "Any person my daughter is willing to lock lips with earns that privilege."
"Mom?! Lock lips, really?" said Kara, embarrassed.
Eliza laughed a little. While she felt bad for embarrassing her daughter, it sort of amused her.
"Let's get out of here," said Kara.
Kara pulls Barry out the door, away from her mother. Just in case Alex catches her walking with a boy, Kara asks Barry to take her to the restaurant in super speed. He did. Although, he didn't exactly take her to the restaurant directly. He promised Joe he would let him drive them there. Besides, he would be suspicious once he figured out Barry went into town on his own.
At the restaurant, Barry and Kara sat down and looked at the menu. The restaurant was empty tonight, so it was mostly silent. It made the moment a little awkward for the two teenagers. Barry coughed for no reason. Kara adjusted her glasses. They constantly looked at one another.
"So, uh, h-h-how are things with your sister?" asked Barry, trying to end the awkwardness.
"Well, I'm no longer mad at her for the DEO stunt, so there's that," said Kara. "What about you? You, um... are you really dropping out of the science team this year? I heard you were so amazing last year, for a freshman..."
"Yeah," said Barry. "I hate to do it, but now that I'm the Flash, I can't..."
Police sirens were heard outside. Clearly, there was situation that required the cops' attention. Both teenagers were tempted to leave and take care of it, but they couldn't just abandon their date.
"Uh, you should go," said Kara. "No one would see you leave."
"You do realize that's admitting I'm faster than you, right?" said Barry.
"Just go, Scarlet Speedster," said Kara, dismissing his words.
In a span of five seconds, Barry stopped an armed robbery and made it back to the table without anyone seeing him leave and come back.
"Did anyone see me?" asked Barry.
"Only me," said Kara.
Barry coughed again for no reason.
"So, uh, how's this weather, huh?" he said, mentally slapping himself.
"Being a Kryptonian, I can survive a desert and a blizzard," said Kara.
"Sorry for asking," said Barry, feeling stupid.
More sirens were heard outside. This time, they came from firetrucks. Kara puts down the menu and decides to say what's been on her mind since the beginning of the date.
"Barry, I'm just be honest with you. I'm bored," said Kara. "Mind going back to my house and get my suit?"
Barry smiled in response.
A hotel was on fire. Firemen have arrived and are trying to save the people trapped inside. A couple and their 8-year-old son were surrounded by fire in their apartment. The ceiling above them collapses, but before they were hit, they were saved. When they opened their eyes, they can see themselves outside the hotel. The Flash stood in front of them with a smile.
"Thank you," said the mother.
"You're welcome," said Flash.
"Is that a new suit?" asked the son.
Flash was wearing a different suit. Instead of his usual dark shade of red, he was wearing a brighter red suit with silver piping and the Kryptonian "S" symbol merged with his Flash symbol.
"It's, uh, it's temporary," said Flash.
Flash raced back into the burning hotel. As he runs, he rotates his arms at super speed, creating wind funnels to extinguish the fire. Supergirl was also present on the scene, rescuing every person she sees while also using her super breath to extinguish some flames. It didn't take long until Flash extinguished all the flames burning the building. He and Supergirl had saved every single person trapped inside.
Everyone cheered, especially the children.
They also marveled at Supergirl's new outfit. She was wearing a red suit with flash symbols on the shoulders, a blue skirt, and gold boots.
One police officer approached them, reporting that the culprit of the arson was just seen in a getaway car. The two superheroes immediately race towards where the getaway car was last spotted. The crowd cheered as they watched them fly/run away.
Supergirl lands right in front of the car, forcing the arsonist to stop. The arsonist stepped out of the car and fires his flame thrower at the Kryptonian teenager. A huge wall of flames was created where Supergirl was standing. Just when the arsonist thought he was in the clear, Supergirl walked right through the flames. The arsonist was about to run away when Flash stopped right in front of him.
"You're not going anywhere, pal," said Flash.
The arsonist fires his flame thrower, but Flash dodges the blast. He uses a super-fast uppercut on the arsonist, sending him flying a couple feet in the sky. Supergirl catches him in mid-air and slams him on his car roof, knocking him out.
Flash and Supergirl hi-five as the authorities arrived to take the arsonist into custody.
"I forgot to say. Nice suit," said Supergirl.
"You, too," replied Flash.
"If you had that with you, why did you suggest a normal date?" asked Supergirl.
"The same reason I had to change our plans. I just thought that maybe we could be a normal couple," said Flash. "But I guess you're right. Normal's boring. This is who we are now, and we can't change that."
"No, we can't," agreed Supergirl.
Supergirl gives Flash a quick kiss on the lips. While Supergirl smiled, Flash looked left and right to see people watching them.
"You do realize you just did that in front of witnesses," said Flash.
"Okay, now I feel stupid," said Supergirl. "But they don't know who we are, so I guess it should be fine. Besides, they've suspected we're in love for months. We're just confirming rumors."
"You're not worried that someone might come for me just to get to you?" asked Flash.
"I'm not worried, because we have each other," said Supergirl, cupping his cheek in her hand.
Flash smiled, feeling his worries wither away.
"You wanna go get some donuts?" asked Flash.
"How about we go to the waterfront and enjoy the view while eat?" suggested Supergirl.
At Silverstone City Waterfront, Flash and Supergirl sit down on a picnic blanket, looking at the stars and the beautiful crystal blue waters while eating their donuts. Since Flash wanted to take off his cowl, he covered the picnic blanket with a tent while making sure they can still see the stars in the night sky.
"This feels better, doesn't it?" asked Flash.
"Absolutely," said Supergirl. "I feel like everything is moving so fast."
"Why is that?" asked Flash.
"Just a couple years ago, I was an alien girl from another planet trying to adjust to a new one," said Supergirl. "Now, I feel like I've turned my life around for the better in the blink of an eye. I have a family that loves me. I have a promising future at CatCo. And I'm dating The Flash."
"You feel as if the pain you've been suffering from losing your home planet is cast aside by so many positive things in your life," guessed Flash.
"Yes," said Supergirl. "Is it wrong that I'm moving on so fast? I mean, I miss my home, my family. Yet, I feel like I can say that I'm happy here on Earth."
"You should be happy," said Flash. "To be honest, I'm jealous of you. I have so many things that should make me happy. Joe. Iris. Cisco. Dr. Wells. Oliver. Laurel. Being The Flash. You. Yet, I'm still caught up on what happened to my mother. I can't really say that I've moved on or that I'm happy."
Supergirl felt sad for Flash. There he was, sitting down listening to a girl who says that she's happy with her life following a traumatic experience while he's still caught up in the past.
"Just remember that you're not alone, Barry," said Supergirl. "We can face this together."
Flash smiled again. "I'm glad we're doing this."
"Me, too," said Supergirl.
The two move closer towards each other until they kissed. The kiss was so fierce that Supergirl pushed Flash down, causing him to fall on his back. He didn't care, because he was enjoying the moment too much. He runs his hand through her golden brown locks as they deepened the kiss. While his life may be far from wonderful, Flash knows that his life is taking the next step in a beautiful direction.
Meanwhile, Killer Frost was following the "Burning Man," as the news calls him, towards a pile of garbage. He appeared to be scouring for food, which sort of disgusted Killer Frost. Keeping a tight grip on her tranquilizer gun, Killer Frost slowly walks closer towards the Burning Man without trying to alert him of her presence. However, she accidentally stepped on a half-broken tea cup, creating a sound of broken glass.
The Burning Man turns around and sees Killer Frost. She immediately fires a tranquilizer dart at him, but he burns it with a fire blast, which she had to dodge after it incinerated the dart.
"Ronnie! It's me! It's Caitlin," said Killer Frost, taking off her mask.
The Burning Man growls in anger and confusion before blasting fire at Killer Frost again. Killer Frost fires an ice beam. The two beams cancelled each other out. Before the situation can escalate, they head police sirens heading their direction. The Burning Man flies away. Killer Frost had to hide in the dark until the police cars passed by.
"What is wrong with you, Ronnie?" asked Killer Frost, confused by her ex-boyfriend's behavior.
I hope this was as good or better than the first date. Let me know. It would really appreciate it.
