The Flash: Barry Allen (part two)

Barry remains silent.

"Barry, did you mean it when you said you loved me?"

He still doesn't speak.

"Barry, answer me. Did, you, mean it?"

"I don't know."

I scoff, "Well, I love you, Barry."

"Y/n-"

"The day you announced you and Iris were dating, I planned on telling you how I felt. But I hid those feelings and ignored them, just so you could be happy. That's all I want, Barry. All I want is for you to be happy even if it's with Iris."

I take a deep breath before continuing, "I was there for you last night when you were drunk, she wasn't. I was by your side through everything and where was she? I understand you may love her but, ask yourself, does she love you?"

Barry stays silent.

"You need to figure that out and talk with her before you get married. You don't deserve being married to a lying cheater. You deserve someone so much better. Somone who will be there for you. Someone who will get you from a bar in the middle of the night and take care of you. Then proceed to stay with you for 2 hours while they wait for your fiancèe come home. You deserve someone who knows your worth and will be by your side no matter what."

I leave with tears threatening to spill and go back into the cortex. I grab my stuff and go to leave. I turn and see barry.

"Talk to her," I say before leaving

Once I get in my car, I let my tears fall. I pull myself together, and leave the parking lot. I just drive wherever the road takes me. That ended up being a little ways from home, in Keystone. I pull into wallys driveway and get out of my car. I walk over and knock on the door.

The door opens and reveals Wally, "Y/n? What are you doing here?"

"I told barry," I say as tears begin to refill my eyes

"Oh Y/n," Wally let's me in.

We sit on his couch and I rest my head on his shoulder. I calm down a little bit before explaining.

"Iris told Barry that she had taken care of him while he was drunk. My guess was that she didn't tell him she cheated on him, so I told him. He brought me into the time vault and started arguing with me. He was saying how I've been acting weird and how Iris has been telling him that I've been yelling at her and trying to break them up."

"What?!"

"Yeah, so one thing led to another and I confronted Barry about how he told me he loved me then I told him I loved him. I then told him that he may love her but to ask himself if she loves him. I insisted he talk to her and figure things out before the wedding."

"Y/n, you did the right thing."

He pulls me into a hug and I start sobbing.

"Then why do I feel so shitty?"

"The truth can be ugly sometimes. But the truth is better than lying."

"Tell that to Iris."

He chuckles, "Why don't you stay here for a couple days? Just to get away from the tension."

"Okay. I just need to grab some stuff from my apartment."

"Okay."

I get up and leave wallys house. I head back to my apartment. I go inside and pack a bag that would last me about a week. I go back to my car and take out my phone.

Caitlin: Are you okay? You seemed upset when you left

Y/n: Yeah, I'm okay. I'm staying at a friend's for a little so don't worry

Caitlin: Okay, be safe and text me if you need anything

Y/n: I will

I drive back to Wallys and get settled in his guest room.

**Time skip 3 days**

Wally and I are having a movie marathon when my phone buzzes. I look and see a text from Barry.

Speedy Barry: Can we talk?

I stare at the message.

"Who is it?" Wally asks

"It's Barry. He wants to talk."

"Well, do you want to?"

"I don't know. It could either go very well or very bad."

"Only one way to find out."

I sigh and answer.

Y/n: I guess

Speedy Barry: Jitters in 30?

Y/n: Sure

"He wants to meet at Jitters in 30. I gotta go."

"Okay. Be prepared for whatever he may say."

"Got it, see you later."

I leave and get in my car before driving to Jitters. When I get there, I order a coffee then sit at a table in the corner. A couple minutes go by and I see Barry walk in. He orders a coffee and looks around. He sees me then comes over and sits across from me.

"What do you wanna talk about?" I ask

"I called off the wedding and broke up with Iris," Barry says

"Why?"

"I talked to Iris then talked to Joe."

"And?"

"Iris admitted that you were the one to take care of me. She also admitted to cheating that night and nights before."

I almost said 'I told you so' but stopped myself, "What did you talk to Joe about?"

"I told him the whole story and he helped me realize something."

"What?"

"He asked me a question. If you and Iris were both falling off a building, who would I save first?"

"Who did you say?"

"You, without hesitation."

"Is that because I'm like a sister to you?"

"No, it's because I love you. I think I always have and I just used Iris to try and hide those feelings."

I remained silent as I processed what he said.

"You were right. Drunk words are sober thoughts."

"Barry..."

"I'm in love with you, Y/n."

A huge smile grew across my face, "I'm in love with you too, Barry."

Barry grabs my chin and pulls my face closer to his until our lips touch. I pull away and see Barry smiling.

"And to think, I always thought you thought of me as a sister," I chuckle

Barry chuckles too, "I acted like that because I thought you thought of me as a brother."

I pressed my lips to his, savoring this moment. I'm happy we ended up together.

Iris can go rot in hell.
