Y/N L/N was always a believer in the impossible, but he never suspected he would become the impossible. When a fateful lightning strike gives Y/N the power to move at super fast speeds, he must learn to step up as a hero against similarly affected p...
Y/N L/N and his wife, Caitlin L/N, stood contemplatively in their apartment. The two scientists stood by one another, their tongues sticking out of their mouths as they worked together on a project. They moved slowly and with extreme caution. Caitlin directed Y/N as he performed his very fragile and very serious surgery.
Caitlin: Careful. This is a critical time.
Y/N: Okay. I've got this.
Caitlin: Steady hands.
Y/N: They're as steady as can be.
The two held their breath as Y/N laid down his last piece. He looked at his disaster and shook his head.
Y/N: We've lost him. Call time of death.
Caitlin: 11:26.
The married couple stood before Y/N's abomination. He had failed at covering the soft dough lines of his apple pie. It looked like a Chernobyl accident compared to Cait's neat and well made pie.
Y/N: I will never complain about your healing palms again. How you manage to keep your hands steady and neat while working precisely on every detail. It's just... I don't possess it.
Caitlin: It's okay. It's just a pie. It's not supposed to be a piece of cake.
Caitlin bit her lip and tried to hold back a laugh. She failed when Y/N smirked and looked at her with a raised brow.

Y/N: Wow. Wow. And I thought I was supposed to be the one with the bad jokes.
Caitlin: I guess that means I'm a L/N after all.
The two chuckled together. The husband and wife duo had now been married for a little over a year, and it had been one of the best years of their lives. Apart from the League having to meet up one time and the occasional metahuman, their lives were not too hectic. In fact, they had never been better.
Cisco had soon settled into his new position as owner of S.T.A.R. Labs. Not that it entailed much. Besides a few business calls and short meetings, he was left free to continue his work with the team acting as Vibe and doing what he was really passionate about: making odd machines that did cool science shit.
Y/N and Cait soon found themselves as millionaires alongside their friend. They donated a large portion of their money to various charities, schools, hospitals and fundraisers across the city, preferring to live a more modest, but beneficial lifestyle. Together with Cisco, they'd even installed a small memorial site in honor of Dr. Wells. The L/Ns put the rest of their money into savings and personal expenditures. It was nothing crazy. Only once did they enjoy a nice yacht cruise in the Bahamas. The rest was purely spent on improving their living conditions and saving for the future.
Caitlin suggested moving into a new apartment, but Y/N instead suggested saving for a house in the suburbs. He never said why with Cait simply agreeing with him, liking the idea of a quieter home life away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Little did she know that Y/N had actually gotten the idea from his little journey into the Speed Force the previous year. He'd even found the right house and neighborhood. All he was waiting for was the right time.
