Chapter 6 - Awkward

Barry is a very awkward person and he has a very awkward life. It is really weird because his crush for 14 years is his step sister and her dad is his foster dad. So it's awkward all the time.


Iris turned to look at Joe. 'Hi Dad' she said with embarrassment. Joe grabbed onto Barry's shirt and pulled him out of the room

'What were you doing kissing my daughter?' Joe questioned.

'Joe, I don't know,' Barry replied, 'Iris kinda kissed me.'

'This is awkward. I walked in on my daughter kissing my foster son. Who happens to work for me. And my daughter is dating my partner.'

'I agree, super awkward.' Barry said. Although he knew that Iris and Eddie broke up, he didn't want Joe to know because he would beat up Eddie.

'I am going to leave through the back door and you can go and talk to Iris. You do realise that Iris is cheating on Eddie with you. Don't make it worse.' Then Joe walked to the kitchen door and left.

Barry went back into the living room where Iris was waiting for him on the couch. He smiled at Iris as he sat down next to her.

'That- Well- I- Um- That was a surprise,' Barry stuttered, ' Why did you do that?'

'I don't know, it just seemed like the right moment and you were there and we were alone, so I just did it,' Iris answered, 'And you are a really good kisser!'

'Joe said he saw everything,'

'I am sorry for getting you in trouble Barry, I thought he would be home later. I forgot to tell you but I'm moving back in.'

'That's great news Iris. Sorry, I should get back to STAR Labs. Dr Wells will be wondering where I am,' Barry was actually going to lock himself in his room so he doesn't accidentally go back in time and reset everything that has happened.

'Bye Barry, I will see you at dinner,' Iris said. As he stood up to leave, Iris also stood up. She leaned in for another kiss, this time Joe didn't come in.

Barry exited the house and rushed to STAR Labs, he needed a talk with Dr. Wells.
