"Hey." Felicity greeted slowly hands in her black jacket pockets walking towards her.

"Uh, Hi." Clarity replied just as slow taking off her helmet fixing her hair accessories kicking her bike's kickstand out.

"Everyone's inside already." Felicity jabbed a thumb back.

"Uh, I gathered. Am I the last one? I don't sense Cecile in there." Clarity drummed her fingers on her helmet.

"Oh, she's not coming. Something about morning sickness and really wanting to go to the actual rehearsal dinner. It's just Iris, Caitlin, Kara...you..." Felicity shrugged. "Me. No Sara? Thought she was coming with you."

"She changed her mind. I don't think she wanted to get rid of her calluses." Clarity got off her bike smoothing out her blue tutu. "Assassins. What can you do?"

"You really shouldn't drive that." Felicity gestured to the bike. "It's dangerous."

Clarity snorted in reply. "Yeah, right. My bike is what's dangerous. Besides Oliver drives a motorcycle all the time, he even added a side car for Will on his."

"Clarity, Oliver has been doing this longer than you. With your powers you don't need to take any unnecessary risks okay. You shouldn't."

"Are you still talking about my bike or..." Clarity frowned at her.

"I worry about the man I love every night. I do not need to be worrying about my best friend too. Your driving a death trap, you aren't talking to me like you used to and don't tell me I have nothing to worry about when your being nothing but reckless with yourself. The way you were at the bachelorette party-" Felicity's words were cut off by Clarity.

"Felicity, this weekend is about Barry and Iris, okay?" Clarity took a breath. "Lets not make it about us or me even. Please. This is their special days. It's their time to get all the attention anyone has to give. I don't want to be the thing that ruins it or-or gets in the way of this being the happiest days of their lives. Right now, Iris wants us to shower her in compliments, put on happy smiles and be her bridal party."

"You always have an excuse. What you want to wait till later when your too tired to talk about the way you've been acting?" Felicity demanded arms crossed.

"Yes, I mean no, look I won't be too tired. I'll be wide awake. I know I've been a little distant, I'm sorry about that, and about that not knowing me thing I said in the car. Our lives are different than what they used to be. Stranger, further apart, wracked with danger, life it's just been tearing me apart every which way it can. Maybe after the party tonight you and I can sit down at Joe's and catch up? Sleepover style like we did back in college. I'll tell you everything. I won't leave anything out. I promise."

"Okay." Felicity agreed with a nod. "We'll talk tonight. For right now," Felicity sighed grabbing Clarity's hand. "We can have some fun." Felicity pulled her into the salon. "Hey guys, look who finally decided to show."

"Clarity, Hey." Iris greeted. "I was worried you weren't coming. I'm so glad you're here. Are you wearing a tutu?"

"Mhm, I had some extra tulle leftover from your dress so I dyed it blue and made a skirt. Sorry, I'm late. I had to drop Jonas off with the boys." Clarity replied sitting on the pedicure chair next to Caitlin. "And Sara has to find a dress for tomorrow. So busy captaining she waited til the last minute. Can't say I fault her is legends are super hard to manage."

"Ugh, a dress isn't all. You guys waited so long to rsvp Barry and I only had spots left for a few of you." Iris shook his head.

"Sorry about that." Clarity apologized, "Time travel, can't keep dates straight very well on the ship. It's probably for the best anyways. Timeline doesn't put everything on hold just cause it's your wedding. I should've reminded everyone to get their invites in, but I was a bit preoccupied."
