Chapter 5 – Welcome to the Family (Part 2)
Barry was happy that Joe and Wally liked Kara, Team Flash had never really got to know Kara, only Supergirl. Iris on the other hand, he could sense the anger, jealousy, whatever it was, and was just glad she didn't make a scene.
But now it was his turn to be introduced to Kara's family as her boyfriend. Kara's foster mother and sister (Which she considers her real mother and sister), her sister's fiancée, Maggie, and so was her surrogate father, J'onn J'onzz, was also going to be there. He wasn't nervous about J'onn, him and Barry had spent quite a bit of time together since he joined the Justice League, he was more nervous about Kara's scary ass sister, Alex.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Kara knocked on her sister's apartment door, which was answered by Maggie.
"Hey Kara. Come on in" Maggie greeted Kara, and then saw Barry. "Hey there Allen, how's it going?"
"I'm going great, how about you Sawyer?" Barry replied. Barry and Maggie had worked on several cases together when Barry would come to National City.
"I'm doing pretty good myself, come on in" Maggie told Barry.
"Barry, what a pleasant surprise" Eliza said walking up and giving Barry a hug. Eliza may have said it was a surprise, but she knew why Barry was there, and Kara didn't tell her. A mother always knows.
"Hello Eliza, it's good to see you too" Barry had met Eliza after he got hurt in National tracking down a Meta-human and she had to operate on him.
"J'onn" Barry said walking up to shake the Martians, in his Hank Henshaw form, hand which he took.
"Nice to see you speedy" Alex said walking from around the corner. Alex has known about Barry's crush on Kara and was relentless about it, always teasing him, cause she knew her sister felt the same way.
"Hey Alex" Barry said waving at her.
"Everyone sit down, it's time to eat." Eliza said putting the lasagna in the middle of the table.
Dinner was filled with laughs and smiles as there was no tension like last night, *cough* Iris *cough*. But the time has come to announce her and Barry's relationship.
"Um, everyone? Barry and I would like to tell you all something." Kara said
Everyone look at Kara and she continued "Me and Barry are dating."
"Finally made a move speedy, I'm proud of you" Alex said playfully hitting Barry on the arm.
"I'm happy for you sweetie" Eliza said giving Kara a hug, trying her beast to act surprised.
"Nice job Allen" Maggie said with a smirk, she suspected something was going on between them. She was a detective after all.
"Congratulations you two" J'onn told them.
"But if you hurt her, I'll make what Zoom did to you seem nice in comparison."
"Alex!" Kara yelled at her sister but had a smile on her face.
"Just saying" Alex said with a smirk. She was happy for her sister and the speedster, she really did like Barry like a little brother that she would tease and make fun of. And just because he was now doting her baby sister was no going to change that.
Nether Kara or Barry were ready to say it yet, but every else knew that they were in love and that there was nobody more perfect for each other.
Barry sat with Kara in his lap on the couch and was talking with Alex and Maggie, who were on the other side of the couch, and they were all laughing.
Eliza and J'onn were cleaning up the dishes.
Eliza was smiling just watching her girls.
"I know how you feel right now, to see both of your daughters happy. I remember both of my daughters being happy and that was the best feeling in the world." J'onn told Eliza
"Yeah, I'm happy they both found someone." Eliza said and got back to cleaning dishes with a bright smile on her face.
Barry got a text and started to laugh.
"What's so funny speedy?" Alex asked.
"Roy purposed to Thea" Barry started
"Well that doesn't seem too funny" Alex said not sure why Barry was laughing.
"But he also got Thea pregnant, and Oliver said 'I'm going to kill him'" Barry said and everyone started to laugh.
"Are crazy family is just gonna keep getting bigger and bigger" Kara said with a smile on her face. She knows it's probably early to think this, but she hopes that one day that will be her and Barry announcing that they are getting married or having a baby, hopefully both.
Hope you guys liked this chapter. I know last chapter I said that we visit Team Arrow next but I think a time jump would be better. For those of you who are wondering, yes Clark Kent aka Superman will return eventually and soon we might see The Gotham Bat. Until the next one, peace.
