Chapter 6 – Welcome the New Guy
"Roy William Harper, do you take Thea Dearden Queen to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for better or worse, till death do you part?" asked Ray Palmer.
"I do" Roy said a small tear in his eye.
"And do you Thea Dearden Queen, take Roy William Harper to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for better or worse, till death do you part?"
"I do" Thea said, starting to cry as well.
Laurel noticed that Oliver was starting to tear up as well, but decided not to say anything knowing that he would deny it.
"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride." Ray said happy for wedding two more of his friends.
After the kiss, everyone was clapping. Everyone was smiling and happy. Right now everything was going right for the heroes.
6 months later
Kara, Barry, Oliver, and Laurel were at Thea and Roy's new house. It was a nice 3 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms, a nice big dining room, living room and large backyard.
Thea was now 9 months along and was expecting any day now. Thea left to go get more water when everyone heard her scream.
"Thea!" Roy yelled rushing to her.
"My water just broke" Thea said with a shocked look on her face.
Oliver ran out grabbing Roy's challenger keys and yelled "I'll start up the car."
After several hours at the hospital, with the entire Justice League in civvies waiting, Thea and Roy came out with a little baby boy rapped in a blue blanket.
"Everyone" Roy called out "Meet Oliver Jason Harper"
Oliver was shocked. "Y-you named him after me?" Oliver asked with a smile on his face.
"No we named him after the olives you eat," Thea said sarcastically "Yes we named him after you. Come here and hold your nephew."
Oliver walked over and held his sleeping nephew. He was so fragile and Oliver was very careful and started to tear up with a bright smile on his face. After everyone got to hold the baby and everyone chatted for a bit, everyone went home. Barry had some pretty big plans for the night.
At Barry and Kara's pent house (Central City and National City are sister cities in this story and Kara and Barry live in Barry's apartment from season 3 in Central City)
"I don't think I've ever seen Oliver cry" Kara said when they walked in the door.
"And I don't think we ever will again, that's why I took a picture" Barry said showing Kara the picture he took on his phone and she started to laugh.
"So what's next for tonight?" Kara asked
Barry put his phone on the island and it started to play a song.
"Can't how the days will unfold, can't change what the future may hold But, I may want you in it, every hour, every minute. This world can race by far too fast. Hard to see while it's all flying past." Barry started singing
"But, it's clear now, when you're standing here now. I am meant to be wherever you are next to me. All I want to do Is come running home to you, Come running home to you. And all my life I promise to, keep running home to you, and Keep running home, to you." Barry continued gazing into Kara's beautiful blue eyes and sitting Kara down on the couch.
"And I could see it, Right from the start, Right from the start. That you would be, be my light in the dark, Light in the dark. Oh, you gave me no other choice, but to love you." Barry said as he touched her cheek and she leaned into the touch wondering why he was singing to her, but loving it.
"All I want to do, Is come running home to you, Come running home to you. And all my life I promise to, keep running home to you, keep running home, Home to you." Barry then got up and then down on one knee and pulled out a ring with a diamond on top.
"Can't say how the days will unfold, Can't change what the future may hold. But, I want you in it, every hour, every minute." Barry finished and Kara was holding her hands over her mouth staring to tear up a little. She couldn't believe that this was happening.
"Kara Danvers, will you marry me?" Barry asked, with a huge smile on his face.
"Yes" Kara said just above a whisper, she was shocked and was trying not to cry as he slid the ring on her ring finger. He got up as she did and they kissed.
"I love you" Kara told Barry.
"Love you more" Barry said as he picked up Kara and sped them to their bedroom.
I know I've rushed things quite a bit but I just want to get to the action bit of the story which I will take my time on, I promise. As for that chapter I hoped you liked it. Next is the start to what will eventually split up our heroes. Until the next one, peace.
