Author's Note: Even though they are not together anymore ( :( ) I still can't stop loving them. #QuickWestWillLive!
Jesse and Harry came from Earth 2 to visit for Christmas.
Wally was overjoyed to see his best friend/crush hop through the breach with her hair in a bun, wearing a pretty velvet Christmas dress.
"Jesse!" he cried, giving her an awkward hug.
She patted his shoulder, smiling shyly, "Hey, Wally. Merry Christmas."
He was broken out of the trance of her eyes by another figured stepping through the breach. Harry gave him a disapproving look and Wally quickly made the space between him and Jesse about a foot wider.
Barry, Cisco and Caitlin gave both of the newcomers hugs, and Joe took care of handing them both cups of alcoholic eggnog. Harry took at least half of his glass in one sip and then wandered over to go argue with Cisco about something.
Just a normal Christmas at the West's house. Normal conversation. Normal interactions. Normal decorations.
Actually... there was one difference. One difference that Jesse Quick picked up on, and decided to use to her advantage.
She wandered over to a specific spot in the room, covertly checked to see that Wally was watching, and dropped her mug.
In a flash, Wally had raced across the room and grabbed it, just before it hit the floor. Jesse let out a partially-legit sigh of relief, not having actually wanted the cup to shatter.
"Thanks, Wally," she breathed, sending him a whoops! face and taking the mug back.
"No problem," Wally shrugged, looking pleased with himself.
Jesse smiled. She had him right where she wanted him.
One finger pointed upward, eyebrows raising, "Mistletoe..."
Wally gave her a smirky sort of grin, "You dropped that mug on purpose, didn't you?"
"I don't know what you're talking about," Jesse grinned, and kissed him.
Author's Note: When you find out that there should be a comma instead of a period at the end of a quote... among other grammatical mistakes that I have written of thousands of pages of fanfiction over the past three years... : |
