3 months after the renovation of Star Labs and Barry Allen moving in with them, uncosciously, lab life began to be back to normal or so Caitlin think. With the close monitoring of Barry, she heard his friends call him that, she met a bunch of new people. Iris West, Barry's hmm significant other? Joe West his foster Dad. Where's his biological? The hot co-ed, Eddie Thawne and the bubbly owner of Freudian lips, Felicity Smoak from Starling City.
Honestly out of all the people who visit him, she warmed up easily with Felicity. That girl, when she smiles and talks, lights up like a beacon. Like summer when winter fall. Like light when darkness crawls. They maintain good friends. Maybe because they are like puzzles, they fit but they also share the same romantic pattern. They can't have the guy. At first, Caitlin waved the possibility of a guy dumping on Felicity but when she saw Oliver with her own eyes, she gaped. The man is a wrecking ball with his killer smile and charming good looks.
It was Barry's 5th month in coma when they were assigned to go to Star Labs warehouse in Starling City to make an inventory. She and Cisco were in a heated argument about Ronnie and her insistent moping when a big, burly masked guy came to them wanting to haul their ass. Luckily Cisco knew how to handle that plasma gun. After they reported it, Felicity strutted towards them and asked them if they were hurt. They genuinely told her that they're fine. She then ask if Barry's fine.
"He'll be. He's being monitored by Iris." Caitlin answered her tiredly.
"Who's Iris?" Felicity asked.
Cisco is going to answer that she's Barry's girlfriend when they were interrupted by the booming voice of Oliver Queen telling Felicity that they should leave. She said her goodbyes to Caitlin and Cisco.
On the car to Central City, Cisco apologized for his behavior towards Caitlin a while ago and that he will never do that again, ever.
"It's okay Cisco. You're my bestfriend. And hey we're even, you saved me from that killing machine that wants to squish us like little bugs." she relieved him.
"Yeah that man is a total steel. Must be Superman's brother? " Cisco asked jokingly.
"Oh for Christ's sake superheroes aren't real. Policemen are." she defied.
They never know that months after that incident, Felicity will contact them again for them to produce an antidote for Mirakuru, a medicine that can transform a helpless human into a fighting machine and that they help save Starling City.
"I feel like Wonder Woman." Caitlin told her lab partner.
"I thought you don't believe in super heroes?" Cisco answered.
"Oh shut up! Just savor the moment that once in for all, I ate my words." Caitlin told him, a twinkle in her eyes.
They both are proud of themselves not knowing that this is only a trial run for a bigger heroic scheme.
