Glitching to Fix Time {Poor Execution, Rewrite occurring in diff book}

Ch 10: Bachelorette Night

"But enough about me, your the one with the special sash." Clarity pointed at her.

"A toast to the future Mrs. Allen." Felicity proposed.

"West-Allen." Iris corrected her.

"Hyphenating's nice." Clarity nodded. "Unless you really hate your last name. Bet your groom would kill to steal someone else's first name. Does the priest have to say the full thing? He's going to cringe so bad."

"Mm, for it to be legitimate I think so." Caitlin nodded. "You know Clarity you should hyphenate when you get married one day if you like it." Caitlin told her. "Springs is a pretty name."

"Yeah it sounds nice. But not as nice as West-Allen." Felicity praised Iris segwaying back into her toast. "Although your life with Barry may be fast-paced, I hope you guys take the time
to enjoy the special moments."

"Aww, thank you guys for coming out." Iris smiled. Her eyes flicked to Caitlin and Clarity. Both team flash women having been hesitant to come. "It really means a lot. Cheers."

"Well, all right, who wants my champagne?" Cecile dropped down her glass. "Craziest thing I get to do tonight is order two desserts."

"I'll take it." Caitlin replied snatching it up. Not that Clarity wanted it. She'd barely taken a real sip of her own getting lost in her thoughts. All this wedding talk it kept making her think of Tyler, the night they got engaged. The night they broke up. They'd been drinking champagne that night. And now..now he was dead. She'd killed him just like he'd feared. Like the radioactive freak she was. Her fingers drummed silently on the edge of her champagne flute.

"That's right." Felicity recalled unaware of Clarity's currently sinking thoughts beside her. "Iris told me you were pregnant. How's that going?"

Iris's eyes flicked between the two of them. Realizing she was frowning she smiled the slightest bit before it dropped back down. The bride to be couldn't help but notice how Caitlin was drinking much too fast having guzzled down both her and cecile's champagne and how Clarity wasn't drinking enough. It didn't even look like the glitch had taken a sip. She knew the two had been hesitant to come but was it really that bad?

"Yeah, it's g... it's good. I mean, it wasn't exactly part of my plan, but I just could not be happier." Cecile chatted on with Felicity.

"I know exactly what you mean." The blonde agreed with the older woman. Clarity wished to hell that she didn't. Jonas was a good kid, but it wasn't like he was her child. She wasn't his mother. Rip should be taking care of him. He's his freaking dad. But instead he's rotting in prison for murders that she committed. Well, she finished. If it hadn't been for her all those agents could have been saved instead of robbed at their chance for life. Even so she wasn't doing a good job taking care of the kid anyways. At least that's what she thought.

"Oh, yeah, how is everything with Oliver and William?" Iris asked her.

"Do I hear wedding bells ringing in your future?" Cecile asked with a shimmy of her shoulders.

"You gonna drink that?" Caitlin asked her.

Clarity passed her champagne to her wordlessly and Caitlin downed it as she caught sight of some shady looking biker thug.

"Oh, no, the last time we did anything that resembled a wedding, Oliver got shot with an arrow, so...Clarity how about you? How are things? How's life for you on the waverider?"

"Huh? Uh, My life...my life is fine. Everything is fine." Clarity replied flashing a tight smile.

"Clarity." Iris turned her head to level with her. "Come on. Seriously."
