Caitlin nodded at her in reply. "Hi."

"Oh...oh. Oh!" Clarity was wide awake now remembering everything that had happened last night. "Oh my, oh god! I..." Clarity scrambled out of bed, pulling on her clothes or well what was left of them. The only thing that really remained from last night was her dress and that was practically in tatters thanks to her powers or maybe a combination of her and killer frosts powers, the only thing keeping it from falling apart was Clarity's arm placed over herself. "I...I gotta go. I'm so sorry, I go. I-I need to go."

"Clarity, hey wait. Calm down it's-" Caitlin reached a hand out towards her but didn't get to finish as she glitched away. Caitlin staring back at the place she'd just been in with a little sigh. "It's okay."

"Hey! Hey! I'm here, don't call the boys! I wasn't abducted or anything, everything's fine. Sorry I'm a little late getting in, I know, or maybe it's early at this point-" Clarity began padding into the west house completely bare foot, her shoes forgotten at Caitlin's.

"Where the hell have you been!?" Felicity demanded as she came marching into the living room from the kitchen positively fuming. Not only had Clarity blew her off last night, but she'd been worrying about her all night long. The IT girl was not happy with her friend to say the least. Especially after Oliver had pulled that will you marry me crap. She needed her for emotional support and Clarity hadn't even bothered to show up to give it.

"Oh my god what happened to your dress?" Kara asked Clarity. Unlike Felicity, Kara hadn't been all that worried though as she saw Claritys dress she got the feeling that maybe she should have been. "Did you get attacked!?"

"What? Uh, no." Clarity replied eyeing her dress. "No, not exactly. Oh are those pancakes?" Clarity pointed to the plate in Felicity's hands. "Can I have some, ple-?"

"No, no." Felicity held the plate away from her poking Clarity in the chest. "Pancakes are for good besties who come home at a reasonable hour not ones who stay out all night doing god knows what. You didn't even shoot me a text to tell me you were okay. You told both me and Kara you were coming back here after the reception and you never did."

"I did now." Clarity gave Felicity her most innocent smile.

"Clarity." Felicity said her friends name sternly.

"Look, I had a change of plans. I would've texted honest but I blew up my phone." Clarity replied looking innocently back at her. "On accident." Clarity added when Felicity looked about ready to bite her head off. "My controls not exactly airtight when I'm on a pleasure high. Things got hazy. I really wasn't thinking at the time."

"Clarity! I cannot believe you." Felicity snapped getting into her personal space. "Do not tell me you took drugs again!"

"It wasn't that kind of high." Clarity rolled her eyes. "I drink some meta tears one time at a club and you think I'm gonna go try out every drug in the city. You don't have to worry anymore. I was fine."

"What else am I supposed to think? With the way you've been acting...where were you?" Felicity repeated her earlier question.

"I was at Caitlin's." Clarity admitted her tone making it clear that it wasn't a big deal.

"Caitlin's, and-and what she couldn't call either?" Felicity demanded.
