A Very Karry New Year.

-December 31st 2018/January 1st 2019-

Barry, Kara, Winn, Amelia, Len and the girls were all gathered in the living space of the Penthouse. It was one minute to midnight and, while most of the small group were sitting around the television, Kara stood by the open balcony doors, overlooking the bay. There were occasional fireworks going off as she looked back to the television, watching events on the local news – CatCo were covering the New Years' celebration, with Cat Grant herself hosting. They had seen Henry in the background occasionally, making Barry and Amelia smile.

"Five…" the countdown had started as Barry shot up, moving over to Kara.

"Four…" Amelia sat forward in her chair, as Len snored on the recliner.

"Three…" Romana and Star were bouncing with excitement.

"Two…" Barry smirked at Kara as she couldn't help but smile back at him.

"One!" As the clocks chimed midnight, Barry leaned in to kiss Kara, while Winn and Amelia kissed on the sofa. Romana and Star cheered happily as a round of Auld Lang Syne started from the crowds on the television, which the girls, and soon enough Winn, started joining in.

The noise and the fireworks woke up Len, whose beer was slipping in his hand.

"Huh?" He muttered looking around blearily as the girl joined Kara and Barry on the balcony, watching the fireworks go off in the city – they had a good height from up here to see it spectacularly. "Urgh, here's to another one," Len muttered, a little too sarcastically as Amelia gave him a look.

"Don't kid yourself – you've been snoring since London," Amelia commented as Winn chuckled by her side.

"Forgive me for not being too impressed, Millie," Len stretched, taking a sip of his beer.

"I told you, it's Amelia now," Amelia corrected. Since Len had come to Karry, he had not got used to her going by her full name.

"Of course," Len smiled weakly at Amelia for this. "But after the crappy year I've had, I don't look forward to another one."

"Hey, you found Amelia again – a new world, familiar faces…" Winn commented as Kara and Barry moved over to the couch, letting the girls continue watching the fireworks go off from the balcony.

"Yeah, but you try living with your gay double and his boyfriend for months – that Ray guy had a lot of strange ideas when it came to the two of us," Len took a swig of his beer at this. "You guys don't have a Ray Terrill here, do you…?" He glanced to Kara and Barry at this. The thought finally coming to his mind.

"Urm, I don't think so," Barry muttered. The name was not familiar. after all

"And if we do, it's a toss of the coin that he'd be gay," Kara continued. "My New Justice counterpart is with a girl." She added to prove the point.

"Besides if he was, he may not fancy you," Winn pointed out as well. He didn't have as much experience with the multiverse as others but he knew some of it.

"Hey, this face is very attractive you know," Len joked, causing Amelia to splutter with laughter. "Stop laughing, Millie."

"Happy New Years to you, too," Amelia now chuckled, dropping the topic.

"Right back at you," Len raised his beer to the group.

"Happy New Year," they chorused back as Star and Romana joined them.

"When do we have to go to bed?" Romana was the one to ask this, a little cautiously as both girls looked at Kara and Barry.

"Shortly," Kara answered. "Unless you're already tired?"

"No!" Both instantly protested.

"We can stay awake all night!" Star countered, just as she let out a little yawn. Barry chuckled.

"Tell you what; a midnight snack and a hot chocolate, then bed," Barry decided for the girls who seemed more than happy to stay up a little later than midnight. Normally their bedtime was around 7 or 8pm so this was a real treat for them.

As Barry started making turkey sandwiches for the girls, Kara sat down with Winn, Amelia and Len.

"Nice fireworks," Winn nodded to the balcony; while the main display was over now, there was still some going on.

"Pales in comparison to Disney though," Amelia stated. Winn smiled at this. He had come to learn that Amelia was a Disney Junkie. He considered himself one too, but didn't know as much as her. Although it had seemed she had to look up new knowledge since there had been some minor differences between hers worlds' Disney and theirs.

"Well, it's comparative, isn't it?" Winn pointed out. "The city can't afford such a massive firework display, while Disney can. Besides, it seemed the better New Years' fireworks were in National City anyway."

"Dad got a good show then," Barry called from the kitchen.

"Well, he is married to the CEO of CatCo," Amelia pointed out, smiling at the thought of their dad and Cat together. Just like it was meant to be.

"You know, this world isn't that different from ours," Len pointed out to Amelia. "Even New Years is the same."

"Reason why I choose this world," Amelia said with a nod. The fact this world was so similar to her own was what made it attractive. "Although All Hallows Eve is really different." Len gave a nod, having seen other worlds' Halloween celebration before too.

"I doubt New Years Eve differs much on any world," Barry pointed out, returning with a tray of hot chocolates for the room, as well as plenty of sandwiches and snacks, as the girls took their place on the couch, a sandwich each now.

"What was New Years like on Krypton?" Winn was the one to ask this, looking at Kara now.

"The Kryptonian calendar was a different than the human one so it's different day, obviously. But we did have a celebration of sorts for a new year. Nothing like this," Kara shrugged. "But with Rao being the sun god, and the sun representing daily change in our lives… well you can see the connection. It was celebration, but more intimate, like Thanksgiving here. A time for loved ones."

"Well, this is very much a time for loved ones," Barry smiled, an arm around Romana now, as she had her chocolate – the sandwich long gone already. Romana, like the rest of the family, had a big appetite being Daxamite. Star was a little different but could eat more than a normal human. She was still enjoying her sandwiches and taking cupcakes off a plate; Romana happily taking one as well.

"Do you guys do this every year?" Len asked now, frowning at the couple.

"Well, this year we wanted it to be a little more special with Star and Romana. We may not do it every year, but as the kids grow up too…" Kara stated, thinking of Nora and Alura in their rooms. Krypto and Hex were with them too, especially vigilante tonight, to make sure that the fireworks didn't wake the girls up or scare them.

"You want another one, right?" Len countered, curious now.

"Yes," Barry started a smile.

"Well, urm…" Kara added before her husband could finished. Barry met her eyes. "Someday," she finished.

What? Barry asked through their bond. I thought we agreed…?

We did, but that was before we took in Star and Romana, and before we got two lodgers in the form of Winn and Amelia, Kara insisted. Barry frowned at this.

You don't want another then? He asked.

"Are you two doing that telepathic conversation thing?" Len asked, but Amelia shut him up with a glare.

I do, but not yet. It can wait a year, surely? Kara stated.

Okay, Barry stated simply. We can discuss this more later – there is time now.

"Sorry," Kara was the one to speak aloud to the others. She knew some people got annoyed when they did that.

"Don't be," Amelia waved her off.

"Private discussion, we know," Winn added.

"I never could get the hang of my Kara and Barry doing that," Len however waved at the two. "Do you do it often?"

"Not usually in the company of others," Barry stated, a little coolly at this.

"Fair enough," Len shrugged.

"But I think these two had better head to bed," Kara nodded at the two girls, who were both nodding off now, their hot chocolates and food done.

"Oh, but we're not tired!" Star had woken at that, protesting bed instantly.

"Kara's right," Barry stated simply. "It's passed midnight, we've seen the New Year in – you girls need your sleep."

"Go off to bed now, both of you. Barry and I will be in soon to tuck you in," Kara smiled at the girls, who groaned at this, both standing and heading off to the stairs to their bedroom. Barry sped to pick up the plates and their mugs, returning them to the kitchen as he took his seat a second later.

"So, what's everyone else been up to for Christmas and New Year?" Winn was the one to ask this as Kara and Barry looked at him. "You know, our big old super-family," he clarified.

"Oh, well, dad as you know has spent this time with mom in National City," Amelia started, nodding to the silent TV which until recently had the National City celebrations on.

"Alex and Sara are of course there too – in the city though, not at the big celebration we just watched," Kara added. "I believe Sara's mom has been there a lot helping with the kids recently, as has Eliza; but she and dad had a nice celebration at the meta home last week. Not sure what they're up to tonight," Kara finished.

"Team Canary have stayed in Starling," Barry added. "A new baby for Olly and Laurel after all, but Thea and Jason were doing something, with Paula and Jack tagging along."

"That is if Jack hasn't snuck out with some boy," Amelia added with a laugh. Len rolled his eyes at this, damaged from his time with the Nazi Earth couple.

"Liam's obviously in Keystone, spending time with Cody and Michelle's family," Kara listed that one off.

"Not a clue what our Green Lanterns are up to," Barry added thoughtfully.

"Ronnie, Caitlin and the kids have gone to Disney though," Kara smirked knowingly at Amelia as Winn chuckled at this. "They took Crystal with them too."

"They got the good fireworks," Amelia joked leaning into Winn who put an arm around his fiancée, choosing not to comment on this.

"Diana and Donna are having a quiet one, given the year they've had," Barry stated. They had lost a lot this year.

"Oh, and Clark, Lois and the kids had Lucy, Ray, and Brandon over, so that was nice," Kara stated.

"I always thought Ray looked a bit like Clark," Amelia stated randomly.

"Really? I don't see it," Kara shrugged at that one.

"I know Lisa is spending time with that Ramon kid," Len spoke up, an edge to his voice now. He was very over-protective of his sister, especially knowing that his this-world double had died, leaving no one but Cisco to protect her. He didn't like that. He had seen one sister die after all and he could not let his new one die too, especially as he'd only just found her.

"Lisa can handle herself and Cisco though," Winn spoke up smugly, knowing those two well.

"Yeah, I think everyone's just spending time with their respective families. Tantu's obviously going through some issues with her recent loss and this Totem thing we're helping her with, but Christmas to New Year tends to be quieter. I imagine that will all pick up soon," Amelia summed up now.

"I'll just check on the girls," Kara stated now as she moved off, heading to the stairs and up.

"January…" Len was the one to say this one Kara was gone. "Please tell me it's a better month on this Earth than back home?"

"What's wrong with January?" Amelia now asked. "It was a perfectly fine month back on Other Karry."

"Other Karry?" Len raised an eyebrow at this.

"Yeah it's what I call our original world," Amelia stated.

"Oh," Len frowned at this. "Okay."

"So, what's wrong with January?" Barry was the one to ask now.

"It's just so dreary and dull; wet and cold and no one has money thanks to Christmas and late pay checks," Len listed this all off. "I know I had trouble during my last January back home."

"Could almost get into the theft business, eh?" Winn joked, but Amelia lightly slapped him on the arm for this comment.

"It's good for birthdays," Barry stated.

"Poor idiots. January birthdays," Len continued his new-found maudlin aspect on life. "Christmas just passed and then they get presents again. I bet some people just give joint at Christmas."

"Barry's birthday's in January," Amelia pointed out. "As is Garfield's – January 3rd come to think of it."

"And isn't Laurel's in January too?" Barry questioned now.

"I thought it was mid-November?" Winn spoke up.

"You got the wrong Lance sister sweetie," Kara spoke, coming back down the stairs. Despite being upstairs she had no need to be caught up on the conversation – super hearing, plus a mental bond with Barry, let her know what was going on. "Winn's right, Laurel's birthday is in November. Sara's is in January. January 3rd too, so she shares with Garfield."

"Oh," Len didn't know how to respond to this as everyone fell silent at this reveal.

"Anyone want to play a game?" Winn broke the silence. "I've been wanting to play some of these STAR games."

"I'll beat you, nerd," Len said with a smirk.

"I'll make popcorn," Amelia said. "You two joining in?"

"We're going to head off to bed," Barry stated now. He wanted a word with his wife anyway. "Don't stay up too late you three."

"We won't," Amelia stated in an almost sing-song voice as Len simply gave them a nod, raising his beer glass again as Winn set up the gaming system.

…

Barry and Kara reached their bedroom but stopped. Barry turned to Kara.

"Okay, why hold back on more kids?" He had to know. After the Darkseid battle they both agreed to start trying at this time. He had been preparing, getting ready for when Kara was pregnant again.

"I'm not ready, truthfully," Kara stated. "I know we agreed after Darkseid was defeated but life was different then. It changed. I thought I would be ready in the New Year but with the Penthouse being filled thanks to Amelia and Winn, not to mention adopting Romana and Star… and do you remember how nasty I got when pregnant…?"

"How could I forget," Barry muttered, smirking though. That was one of the main things he'd been preparing for after all.

"I just don't want to go through it. Not yet. I'll let you know when I'm ready, because I do want to have another baby with you, just not so quickly," she leaned in to kiss Barry once more, who accepted these circumstances without question. Kara did talk a lot of sense – they honestly didn't have the room at the moment thanks to the new additions, and it was a trial for him too having to constantly send good vibrations over to his wife during her pregnancy last time. He had been wondering how that would work with kids in the house now.

"We'll wait," Barry stated simply when he pulled out of the kiss.

"Thank you," Kara nodded. "Oh, and I have a surprise for you."

"Oh yeah?" Barry raised his eyebrow, a playful expression on his face now as Kara opened their bedroom door.

"Oh," he muttered at seeing the two girls in their bed. Romana and Star seemed to have taken up residence in their bed once more. They had clearly gone to their room first because both were snuggling stuffed animals they had bought in Disney: Star had Pooh, while Romana had a Goofy doll.

"Came to check on them and found them both in here already," Kara stated quietly, so as not to wake the girls up.

"We really are too relaxed when it comes to when they use our bed," Barry stated thoughtfully as he quickly changed out of his casual wear to pyjamas; Kara did the same.

"Make it a New Years resolution then," Kara giggled as she slipped into her side of the bed, carefully.

"We'll tell them in the morning," Barry smirked as he too got into bed, careful not to wake the other girl.

"Happy New Year, Barry," Kara stated.

"Happy New Year, Kara," Barry added as they settled down to sleep.

Note: I hope you enjoyed. A nice bit of fluff for you guys as promised. There will be more fluff chapters – and ones written by Millie. One in fact, coming up really soon.
