Karry Universe
Disclaimer: you know this.
SHOUT OUT: I have to say thank you once again to an amazing reviewer. TheSuperFlarrowVerse has made not just one but two Karry Universe videos for this story. They are both amazing and the links are on my profile so go check them out.
Happy Columbus Day everyone. The guy who did not discover America but we celebrate him anyway. Oh and happy Supergirl Day too.
Story Time
Jesse was at the West household, a little unsure of what to do as she watched the family. She had been invited to dinner there to celebrate her becoming part of the team, which was nice, but she wasn't entirely comfortable around so many people. She smiled though as Jax was there too. He was cute and she could use a friend her own age around, and he had offered to help acclimatize her to Central City.
"I've been wondering something," Jesse finally voiced as she sat down, looking around at the large group that included Caitlin, Cisco, Lisa, Joe, Iris, Eddie, and of course Kara and Barry. "How did Supergirl and the Flash get together? Did you just bond over superpowers or something?"
The group actually laughed at this. "I didn't have superpowers when we met," Barry explained. "We met in college and I asked her out." He looked at his wife fondly before stating, "Our first date was that dormer barbeque, actually."
… Flashback …
"You going to eat all that?" Barry asked, looking at the plate of food Kara took. Kara looked down, a little nervously, unsure if her eating habits would be a turn off to the cute boy. "Sorry, it's err, not something to say on a first date. I mean it's not like you can't eat all that. You are very good looking and thin and it's just surprising how much you can eat… and I put my foot in my mouth." Barry rambled, feeling embarrassed. This was his first date with a girl he could really see himself with and he had messed it up already. "Stupid Barry," he cursed himself under breath as he added, "I'm sorry. I don't date much, not really my thin… and you want me to go."
Kara smiled. "No," she couldn't help but laugh aloud and snorted at the same time. She tried not to blush at this as she added quickly: "I don't date much either truthfully, and let's just say my family has good genes when it comes to food." Barry sighed, relieved that his comment hadn't been as foolish at it sounded.
"You seriously can eat all that?" Barry asked now, amazed, and Kara smiled, taking one of the burgers she had grabbed.
"You want to bet?" Kara asked with a raised eyebrow and a mischievous smirk.
"Okay," Barry said smirking back, thinking he would win. Girls didn't eat as much as boys – Iris was proof of that in his eyes. "If you can't finish your plate, you have to be my date to the movie they are showing in the common hall tonight." He added in thought. Braving it.
"And if I do, you have to watch my Gilmore Girls DVDs with me," Kara said. "All seven seasons."
"Deal," Barry said, grinning and shaking her hand.
… Present Time …
"I was totally taken there," Barry said after he was done revealing that one deal-sealer moment from his and Kara's first date. "You knew you could finish it. You could have probably finished two of those plate." Kara smirked as she kissed her husband who laughed regardless. "So, I watched Gilmore Girls, obviously not all of it, maybe the first two, three episodes, that night and well… it was pretty much smooth sailing from there."
"Ah," Kara said, pulling a face making everyone look to her. "Well, I did get kind of nervous dating a human. I thought about calling it off a week after our first date. During that carnival our school put on for the first week."
"What stopped you?" Jesse asked curiously, everyone was also looking at Kara, waiting for an explanation.
"Well I left Barry to freak out a bit," Kara started.
… Flashback …
Kara had sped away from the carnival to the side of the school, taking deep breaths as she fell to the floor. She put her head between her knees as she thought, physically shaking too. "I can't do this. I can't be with him. I can hurt him," she whispered to herself, a tear falling down her eyes as she realized this. She didn't want to leave Barry, they had so much in common on an emotional level, but he would be safer without her. He would find someone normal like him and live a normal life. He'd forget about her as time progressed. It was only a college crush.
"'Are you okay?" A voice asked and Kara turned and looked up. A man was standing over her. He wore a red baseball hat and a dark pair of sunglasses. His voice sounded a little weird, almost distorted. Maybe she wasn't listening properly, too emotionally distracted. "You should be enjoying the carnival."
"I can't," Kara said, wiping away the tears and not wanting to cry in front of a stranger.
"What's wrong?" The man asked. "Boyfriend hurt you?"
"No, but I'm about to hurt him. I don't want to. I don't want to leave him…" she couldn't help but confess.
"Then don't," the man said simply.
"But it's not right. I can't do this to him."
"Go back to your boy. If it's right between you then there will be a sign," the man said, confusing Kara. "Trust me. It happened for my wife and me. It will happen for you." Kara stood up, smiling weakly at him and started to walk back to where she had left Barry. She turned around to look at the stranger again in curiosity but he was gone. He was vaguely familiar now she thought about it.
… Present Day …
"Sometimes I wonder if that man was real or just a figment of my imagination. I never saw him again, but when I got back to Barry the sign was there," Kara said smiling.
"What was it?" Caitlin asked after a moment of silence and everyone else was on tenterhooks now, curious as to their power couple's beginnings. Even Iris, who had been through most of it, had roomed with Kara for so long, had never heard this story before.
"Barry had won a Superman pin from one of the games. He was wearing it right here," Kara pointed to Barry's left side right above his heart. "Seeing my family symbol pined on his chest, right above his heart… I just knew I couldn't leave him. So that night I called Clark and asked for tips on how to spend a lot of intimate time with a human and not reveal the secret."
"So I owe our whole relationship, our marriage, and our baby to a random man who may or may not be real and a superman pin?" Barry asked and Kara smiled, laughed, and nodded. Barry grinned though, and put his arm around Kara. "You know; I remember winning that pin. I didn't think I would but then the ball just weirdly changed and went into the hoop."
"Can we please stop talking about that carnival?" Iris suddenly sighed, rolling her eyes.
"Why?" Eddie asked his wife.
"Barry knows," Iris said, nodding at Barry who gave Iris a strange look.
"I do?" Barry asked.
"Yeah, I never thanked you for that really," Iris said thoughtfully, and Barry looked at Kara and then back at his sister.
"For what?" Barry asked.
"Saving me," Iris said, a little concerned now. "It was you right?" She could tell from Barry's face though that he had no clue. "I could have sworn that was your hand writing on the note. Maybe I'm wrong."
"What note?" Joe had heard this part of the conversation as he came in with some food.
"Well… at the carnival someone spiked the punch and I got a little too much," Iris said. "I barely remember some guy putting his hand under my shirt. Next thing I know I am waking up in my room, fully clothed on my bed with a note saying to be more careful and to pick better guys." Iris looked at Barry. "I really thought it was you."
"Someone had their hand up your shirt?" both Joe and Eddie suddenly asked, concerned as Iris ignored them.
"I spent the whole day with Kara, after she came back from her freak out," Barry said directly at Iris, ignoring the two men too.
"Seems like you all owe it to some random guy," Lisa said, smirking. Barry, Iris, and Kara looked at each other and shrugged as they started to put food on their plates.
"Okay so you guys are together now," Jesse said, getting back to the topic at hand. "But Kara is still keeping a pretty big secret. How did the relationship survive that?"
"Oh I will say I was pretty mad when I found out, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I was mad at myself, actually." Barry said between bites of eating. "I mean all the clues. The Karaoke bar…"
"The day you saved Superman's life," Iris cut in.
"The day everyone but her got sick," Barry added.
"Okay, do we have to go through the list again?" Kara asked, annoyed and getting angry at her younger self for being so foolish at almost revealing her identity, even if it had worked out in the end. Barry sent calming emotions towards her though, knowing her hormones were acting up too. "I get it. I wasn't good at keeping a secret. You guys were just stupid." Barry and Iris looked at each other, knowing not to argue with a pregnant Kryptonian, so silently turned back to their food.
"Okay, here's something I have been wanting to know since forever," Cisco now said after a moment. "Did you guys first sleep together before or after Kara told you her secret?"
"I should go get the potatoes," Joe said embarrassed toward the sex talk of his kids now, getting up and not wanting to hear this story.
"After," Barry confirmed.
"I didn't feel right putting him in that kind of danger before he knew," Kara admitted. "Although we came close a couple of time."
"On Clark and Lois's couch," Barry said with a laugh. "The closet one time when we were babysitting J.J."
"Seriously? When you were babysitting?" Iris scoffed. "How cliché."
…. Flashback …
Barry and Kara were on the sofa bed with the TV on, but neither was paying attention to it. Jason had fallen asleep a while ago and the young couple had started making out which quickly began to turn into more. As Barry went to take off Kara's underwear, Kara suddenly heard a noise. "They're back!" Kara whispered, suddenly worried.
"I didn't hear anything," Barry whispered back, trying to lean back in and kiss her.
"Put your pant back on!" Kara said quickly and pushing Barry off her a little too hard. "Sorry." Kara apologized, grabbing her discarded clothes and quickly as humanly possible getting them back on and throwing Barry pants and underwear at him.
Barry started to put them on, a little hot and bothered now that he couldn't continue what they'd just been doing. "You're worrying for nothing," Barry said when he had his underwear back on, trying not to sound annoyed. "They aren't…" Barry then heard the key in the door and quickly got his pants back on and started looking for his shirt.
Kara was already re-dressed when Clark and Lois walked in. "You're early," Kara said with a pant, smiling as Barry found his shirt.
"Why is his shirt off?" Clark asked Barry quickly, giving Barry a dirty look but Barry just smirked.
"Um…. J.J. spit up on me. I cleaned it in the sink and let it dry and… oh, look at that its dry now," Barry quickly made up, putting the shirt back on.
"How many times do I have to tell you not to call him J.J.!" Clark groaned, annoyed.
"Oh, it's cute Clark," Lois said with a smile. "Is everything okay?"
"Ja's been asleep for a few hours," Kara said.
"Thanks," Clark said hugging his cousin. 'You two better get back to school before it gets too late."
Clark turned to go into his son's bedroom. "Kara," Lois said as Kara and Barry headed for the door. Lois held up a bra. "Don't forget this." Kara embarrassedly felt her bra was missing and turned red as she took it from Lois. Lois laughed as the two walked out of the apartment.
"That was a close one," Barry sighed, glad now that Kara had somehow heard her cousin's return, even if they didn't get the chance to be a little freaky.
"Yeah," Kara agreed thoughtfully, wondering herself if Kal's return had been more opportune than it should have been. If he had arrived five minutes later…
…. Present Day …
"Potatoes," Joe chimed as he walked back in to the dining area.
"You know, thinking it over I am so surprised Clark didn't kill you," Kara joked to her husband, who laughed at this.
"Same for me in the first month or so… But by that time Clark liked me and just pretended he didn't," Barry said confidentially.
"Okay," Jax said after a moment of silence as everyone ate some more. "I've got to ask what happened after Kara told you."
"After the initial shock? We were stronger than ever," Barry said, taking Kara's hand with a smile. "Especially when the bond completed formation."
"You were able to hear each other's thoughts even then?" Cisco asked, amazed. Of all the things he could experiment on and found out about, the Krytonian bond Kara and Barry shared was impossible to look further in to. Not to mention, he had thought the bond formed after Barry had become the Flash too, having not known Barry before then.
"No it was an empathic bond like what Clark and Lois have," Kara said, smiling at the memories that were still so clear to this day.
"So everything was just peachy," Jesse said with a sigh. Not everyone was lucky like these two in their love lives. She sure as hell hadn't been so far.
"Well our relationship was good, and we were closer than ever to Clark and Lois because of it. Clark had officially stopped trying to be scary with me when we finally got the bond," Barry said, but turned to Kara for an 'okay to go into this' look, which she obliged to mentally. "But another relationship had effectively crashed and burned. Kara and Alex relationship was at its lowest point after Alex called her an alien parasite."
"We didn't talk besides a few drunken phone calls. She did love to constantly thank me for destroying her life," Kara said sadly. "I never answered her calls though, deleted the messages if there was one – I never listened to them, well not after the first five. I really thought I had lost my big sister for good. If it wasn't for Hank and the DEO getting her sober I probably would have." Kara remembered the day things finally turned around. "The day Ella was born was a good day."
…. Flashback …
Kara smiled as Lois handed little Ella to Alex. She almost still couldn't believe she had her sister back. Her apology out in the corridor… yes they had a lot to work on, to work through, but already this was the first step in the Danvers sister's reunion. Barry kissed Kara's cheek and took her hand. "Okay, I'll admit to never actually having held a baby before," Alex said after a moment, clearly feeling uncomfortable.
"You're doing fine," Lois said with a small smile. "As long as you don't drop her." Alex smiled back as she looked down, barley noticing Clark with the camera as her cellphone inconveniently rang.
"That my sponsor," Alex said. She had set a special ring tone for Christie, her sponsor, so she always knew when she was calling and to pick up. "Probably wants to know what happened…." Alex handed the baby to the closest person to her, which ended up being Barry, before walking out of the room.
Barry smiled down at little Ella and so did Kara. Neither of them saw Clark taking pictures until he told them to smile. Kara grabbed little Jason for a picture with him as well. "This was a good day," Barry said. "Little Ella is here. Alex is back. Everything is right."
"Yeah," Kara said, smiling. She generally felt so good now, even if she had only been shouting and crying barely five minutes ago. "The future seems right. Nothing can go wrong now."
… Present Day …
"Wow, how wrong I was," Kara sighed, remembering that moment. "Things went wrong. Quickly."
"Ah, but we got through them," Barry said smiling. "Nothing like a little negativity to strengthen a relationship."
"Like what though?" Jesse asked, engrossed in this story. "What was the first thing that went wrong?"
"Getting jobs in different cities is a good starting point," Kara answered, giving Joe a look for that since he was the reason that had happened. Joe merely continued eating, knowing he getting Barry the CSI position had been the reason for that year of long distance but knowing it had worked out well for both parties. "We couldn't stand being apart like that for much longer. Even with my powers it was getting hard to see each other."
"And I knew I was going to marry her," Barry said. "All I needed was the ring. Bought it in Starling with help from some friends."
… Flashback …
Barry slowly walked up to the two blondes he barely knew. He couldn't believe he was asking them for this help, but so far they had been good friends. "Um… Felicity… Sara," Barry said, causing the two to look at him. "Could, err... Could you… maybe… Could you help me get my girlfriend something?"
"Sure," Sara said with a polite grin, wondering why Barry seemed so nervous.
"What were you thinking?" Felicity now added. "A t-shirt or something? Starling are trying this whole 'I Heart Starling' brand that…"
"No, jewelry actually," Barry said quickly.
"What type? Bracelet? Necklace? Maybe earrings?" Felicity now asked.
"No… I'm looking for a ring. A diamond ring," Barry said, forcing himself not to blush at this obviousness but grinning nonetheless as he continued. "I'm asking her to marry me." Both Sara and Felicity instantly made a soppy noise at the same time. "But I don't know rings at all so could you help." Barry added quickly, ignoring the girly moment between the pair.
"Which jewelry store do you think?" Sara said, turning to Felicity. "I mean Michaels is closest but I don't know about their ring selection."
"No, it's a bit farther but Lady Goldis the best," Felicity said. "Don't worry Barry, we're finding that ring." Felicity grabbed Barry's hand and the trio left to ring shop.
… Present Day …
"I'm surprised those two didn't have me spending more than I could afford," Barry said with a laugh as he remembered being in the store with all the different types of rings Felicity and Sara had been pointing out to him. It took a while for them him to find one he liked, that both Felicity and Sara agreed on was a good choice. It helped that it was part of a special Superman engagement range, not that the Team Arrow girls knew the specialness behind it for Kara at the time, even if Barry secretly knew something El-related was going to be truly special for his then-girlfriend.
Kara smiled as she played with her ring. She loved the thing, but it was sad knowing that her dead friend had helped pick it out. Barry knew what Kara was thinking though and took her hand. I could always buy you a new, more expensive, one now? Barry thought to her.
No, I love this one. And knowing Felicity helped with it makes it even more special. Kara thought and Barry smiled back, a little sadly.
"How many times do we have to tell you that your mental talk is annoying? It's so… inconsistent to us mere mortals," Caitlin said, and Kara and Barry smiled at her as they went back to eating, thinking their story time was over.
"Wait… Hang on. Something is missing here," Jesse said after moment, a hand raised as a thought coming to her. "Were you Supergirl by this point? What made you put on the cape anyway?" The room suddenly went silent as everyone looked to Jesse now and then to Kara. "What?"
"The Particle Accelerator explosion," Kara finally said quietly, knowing there was no hiding this from Jesse. "Barry was struck by lightning."
"It's what made me the Flash," Barry added quickly, and Jesse nodded; she had figured that that was how Barry had got his powers – she was a genius after all. "But it also put me in a coma for nine months. I didn't even get to give Kara her ring yet. I had it on me..."
"After failing…" Kara suddenly interrupted, looking into space now, her eyes glazed as she saw something no one else could see, although Barry did suddenly get a sharp vision of himself unconscious on his lab floor, surrounded by glass as the echo of panic and fear rose in Kara's mind.
"You did not fail me!" Barry suddenly brought himself back to now, cutting Kara off and blocking the thought. He really hated when she took things on herself like that. Especially that. Things she had no control over. She still felt guilty sometimes over not being there for Clark while she had been trapped in the Phantom Zone.
"After not saving Barry," Kara said suddenly, looking directly at Jesse now. Barry decided not to correct her here but still felt she was taking too much blame, even now so many years on. "I felt I needed to protect everyone that day. So I went to Clark and asked him to train me."
"And you became Supergirl and everyone was thrilled," Jax said, remembering when Supergirl had appeared and how happy everyone felt to have another Superhero around, and one related to Superman with equal powers. It was almost a holiday after that horrible day in Central City. He remembered being in the hospital and thinking if only she had been there to protect him, and how maybe he wouldn't have gotten hurt. Still, on reflection there was never going to be any 'ifs' or 'maybes' surrounding that day. Things had worked out in the end.
Kara made a disappointed face though. "Not everyone." She said darkly, making people look at her.
… Flashback …
After leaving STAR labs Kara had gone back to her apartment to find Alex waiting inside. "It's kind of late," Kara said, putting her keys down.
"You won't answer my calls," Alex said, clearly mad as she gave Kara a look.
"I knew you wouldn't be happy," Kara said, closing her door as she walked in. She hadn't answered any calls from Alex or Eliza while she had been training with Clark, and Clark and Lois also ignored their calls. They had agreed that it was for the best until Kara was ready. She was almost surprised they hadn't come to try in person, but Kara guessed they were waiting for her to get home. Where she wouldn't have Clark as backup. She had told them of her week off work after all – boy plans had changed from their originals.
"Of course I'm not happy," Alex said, standing up now and pointing randomly out of the window. "You exposed yourself! You're out there in the world now, Supergirl." She practically spat this last bit as she continued her rant regardless. "You can't take this back Kara. You can't have a normal life and be who you were. You can never just be yourself now."
"I felt more like myself this past week than I have since I came to Earth. I was always meant to protect more than just myself. Supergirl is who I am meant to be," Kara said, folding her arms and getting angry. "I only wish I had done this sooner."
"Sooner?! Are you mad? What does Barry think about this? Weren't the two of you supposed to be on vacation this week? You blew him off to train with Clark."
The words shocked Kara so much that she was stunned to silence for a second. "You… don't know," Kara said, her voice barely a whisper now but this alone calming Alex as she took a cautious step toward Kara.
"Don't' know?" Alex asked softly now, seeing Kara was getting upset. "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Barry was… He was struck by lightning created by the accelerator. He's in a coma." Kara said, her voice suddenly hollow as tears now began to pour down her face, she turning her back to Alex to look out her window as she started sobbing, unable to control herself. She hadn't let herself come to accept this while she had been with Clark, but now... "I couldn't save him."
No words were spoken, but Kara felt Alex approach and then put a hand on her shoulder as turned her around to face her sister. Kara cried into Alex's shoulder as her sister pulled her in to a hug, neither saying a word.
… Present Day …
"The next day I was introduced to the DEO and started becoming the Supergirl we know today," Kara concluded, having to hold Barry's hand as she talked about that week. She did not like thinking about the time without him. It was too emotional for her.
"So being Supergirl is how you dealt with Barry's coma?" Jesse concluded, almost not wanting to ask it.
"Yes, but well… I don't think I would have survived without Krypto either," Kara said, and Krypto barked at this from where he was eating. "He was there when I needed him most."
… Flashback …
Kara lay down on her bed after a long night protecting National City as Supergirl. She had taken her outfit off already and was in her pajamas. It was one of those days where Barry's coma seemed worst than ever on her; she was missing him so much. She took a picture she kept on at the bedside of the two of them and just stared at it. Lost in a moment the picture portrayed, so happy and so carefree.
Tears formed in her eyes as she started to cry into her pillow. She dropped the picture on the mattress and just wept. She felt a weight next to her and a canine head gently nudging her. Looking up from the pillow she saw Krypto staring at her, the pup clearly not liking the tears on his mistresses' face. Krypto whined as he licked the tears away and a small smile appeared on Kara's lip.
"Oh Krypto…" Kara said, taking her dog into her arms. "I miss him." Kara kissed her dog's forehead and petted him softly. "But I am so glad I have you. I don't know what I would do without you." Krypto yapped, laying on his mistress's stomach as the two remained in this position until they both fell asleep, snuggled together.
… Present Day …
Barry picked up one of the rarest pieces of pork he could find in the plate and threw it towards Krypto. The dog caught it in the air and started to eat. "Enjoy boy. You deserve that," Barry said making some people laugh.
"And Barry woke up, became the Flash, and they lived and fought crime happily together. The end," Joe said. "Now let's finish eating before it gets cold." Kara and Barry laughed, more than happy to eat.
"Okay. Sorry, but one more thing I have to ask," Cisco said, making everyone put their forks down and Joe groaned. He liked dinner conversation but this story was taking over for dinner. It was taking over the night. "How did the bond go from being an empathic bond to a full out hearing-each-other's-thoughts bond?"
"A Full Kryptonian Mental link," Kara corrected Cisco. "And well…"
… Flashback …
Kara had flown them to the North Pole. Barry had wanted to try to run at first, but Kara pointed out that it was over water and strong ways which Barry hadn't quite tackled that yet, so consented to being carried. Damn it's cold here, Barry thought. All he was wearing was his superhero outfit with the mask down.
It's the North Pole, Kara thought back simply, not feeling the cold herself as she looked for the key. Barry started looking and found it first. He tried to pick it up but failed miserably. Seriously Barry? Kara asked, leaning against the fortress with a smirk. Haven't we been through this before? Kara accidentally sent the memory of the first time they went to the fortress to Barry. She had explained the key back then to him.
"Wanted to see if my strength was enhanced any," Barry said. "Conclusion: It's not."
"Definitely not for White Dwarf Alloy," Kara smirked as she easily picked up the key and opened the door, letting the couple into the fortress. "Hello Kara Zor-El," Kal-X the mini robot servant of Clark's said, flying up to. "And Kara Zor-El's mate. What may I do for you?"
"Hello Kal-X, we have some questions about the bond," Kara said, getting straight into it.
"I will start the hologram for you," Kal-X said automatically; all answers about Kryptonian bonds were part of the hologram of Jor-El and not programed into the robot.
After a moment Kara saw the familiar face of her uncle. "Hello my niece," Jor-El's hologram said. "You have questions?"
"Yes, Uncle Jor," Kara said. "I'll get right down to it. Please, how can a human and a Kryptonian have a full Kryptonian mental link?"
"It isn't. A full link is only possible between Kryptonians," Jor answered.
"But my… mate," she used Kal-X's term, "and myself have now developed a full bond," Kara said, hoping the information was in the program.
"It's impossible. You're bonded with a human. An empathic bond is the most advanced you will experience," Jor said.
"But what if that human was struck by lightning created by a particle accelerator and became superhuman?" Barry asked.
"That event is a one in a million possibilities," Jor said. "And extremely unlikely."
"It happened, though." Kara said, and immediately saw the familiar glow of a scan happening on the pair of them.
"It seems like the lightning caused an unlikely strengthening of the bond already there. It was enhanced from an empathic bond to a stable full Kryptonian bond," Jor said after the light was gone. "This has never happened in the history of our people. Congratulations Kara."
The hologram turned off, causing Kara and Barry look at each other. Well that was helpful, Barry thought sarcastically. It's not like we didn't already know that.
Oh shush, there's no information Kara thought back.
Maybe ask about the full bond instead? Barry suggested. It seems like it'll be the closest explanation to what we have.
… Present Day …
"So that's it. The lightning strike?" Cisco asked, and Barry and Kara nodded. "Right..." Cisco turned back to his food.
"I got one more question." Jesse said after a moment.
"Okay," Kara said as Joe now groaned, wincing into his food now.
"How can you two sing like you're the stars of some stupid high school musical TV show?" Jesse asked.
"How do you know we can sing?" Barry asked. They hadn't sung since Jesse came to town; especially not in her presence.
"Googled you before I came here," Jesse said with a smirk. "Found those pretty popular 'Karry Karaoke' videos."
"Popular? I never thought they got a following," Kara said, and Iris started to hum to herself. "Iris?"
"Oh come on. You are multi-billionaires running STAR-Freaking-Labs. It's not like this is not my fault," Iris said holding her hands up in defense. "I just put them online. You two went into the spotlight with STAR labs. People, like Jesse here, googled you and they found the videos. They have been shared over a million times now."
Kara and Barry actually snorted at this. "To think some old videos from when we were in college got popular," Barry said amused.
"College?" Jesse asked. "There are a lot of recent ones. Including you two singing at weddings – even your own, I believe. More popular than that dude from the British boyband…"
Barry and Kara stopped laughing at this and looked at Iris. Iris laughed nervously before standing. "I'll… err, I'll clean up the plates," she tried.
"Iris?" Barry asked, half-annoyed, half-bemused. He had never contented to her uploading every single video of his and Kara's karaoke sessions since the original.
"It's fine," Kara giggled to herself.
"Iris!" Barry tried again, but his sister had already left the room.
Post Chapter note: I hope you all liked these flashbacks and don't feel it's a wasted chapter for having flashbacks, but it's a kind of cool way of bringing Jesse (and even Jax) up to date on our main power couple and revisiting the early Karry years. Oh, and hope I did not miss anything you wanted to see.
