《impossible | barry allen》38

I emerge from Barry's room, walking downstairs into the kitchen, dressed in a pair of ripped jeans that I had left here, and one of Barry's crewnecks. My hair was straight, cascading down my back due to me being lazy and not tying it up.
Barry turns and looks at me, a smile taking up his features as his eyes land on me. I walk over to him, my lips forming into a smile, my teeth showing.
He pecks my lips, "Morning-"
I mumble one back before pecking his lips again, the smile not leaving my face. "You should wear my clothes more often. If I knew you looked this good in one of my crewnecks- I would've let you have my entire damn closet."
I giggle quietly, smiling, shaking my head lightly at him, "Are you going to work?"
"Mhm- I don't have time to go to Jitters, though-" Barry says, looking at his watch as I look at him with the most confused look I could make, "This coming from the guy who can run faster than anyone alive?"
"Shh- I just have to skip my coffee today." He pecks my lips before walking over to the door with me, holding my coat for me, as I put my arms through, slipping it on, looking at him, as Barry slips his own on.
"Or, I could stop by and get us both coffee and bring it to you?" I suggest, as he smiles, "That would honestly- be amazing. You're amazing- gotta go-" He pecks my lips and runs out the door.

My feet carry me down the sidewalk as I was walking over to by Joe, holding three coffees, the wind blowing, I mentally cursing at myself for forgetting my coat in my car.

I walk over to Joe, handing him a coffee, as a smile forms on my face, "Hey, Zee." Joe says, thanking me for the coffee.
"Hey- how are you doing?"
"Could be better." He bluntly says as I slowly nod, "Have you seen Barry?" Joe points to Barry, who was speaking to Patty.
It lightly bothered me that he was speaking to her, but it was probably for work conditions. I slowly start to make my way over them, making sure I didn't barge in over there too fast, or I would interrupt. I convince myself they're only speaking for work and push whatever I was feeling to the side.
He's talking to her because of work.
I thought. That's what I thought. Before I saw her lips press against his, causing my whole world to crush beneath me.
Barry goes frozen, as his hands move onto her shoulders, pushing her away, pulling away from the kiss.
Tears were already in my eyes as I slowly walk over to them, "You do realize I have a girlfriend, right?" Barry's raising voice halted when his eyes land on me, his breath getting caught in his throat as he goes slightly pale.
"I got you guys coffee." I lie about getting Patty as I hand them both cups, slowly stepping backwards.
"Zee-" Barry starts but I cut him off, my voice whispered, my eyes glossy, "It's okay."
Patty realizes what's happening and goes to apologize but I turn, quickly walking away, the wind hitting me harder.
I hear Barry call out my name, followed by the sound of his footsteps following me.
I jog to my car, and before I knew it, I was in an alley with Barry. "Barry- let me leave-" I say quietly, the wind growing stronger.

His hands put down the coffee, as he takes off his jacket, putting it around me as he starts to ramble, something I usually do, "You need to listen to me- she was talking about how she was going to make-"
I cut him off, "Barry- I-" I try to stop him, processing everything, trying to understand what I saw myself, but he kept going.
"-and she was full on serious, and I didn't want her to do something she was going to regret, and I was trying to convince her out of it- but how the hell am I going to convince her to not try to kill him when he killed her father?"
My eyes go wide, "Weather Wizard killed her father?"
He continues, not listening to anything I was saying, trying to get his side put out, "-out of no where she just kissed me- maybe it was freaking out- I don't know- but she literally- kissed me first- I pushed her away-"
My hands grab onto his forearms, as I stand on my tippy toes, pressing my lips onto his, stopping him from talking. He kisses back then slowly pulls away, but not his face, his voice quiet and raspy, "I'm guessing, that was to shut me up."
"It was-" I pause, "Although, it bothers me that I had to watch her kiss you- I'm happy you pushed her away."
"You're not upset? Are you okay- are you sure you're okay?" Barry asks, for reassurance.
I nod weakly.
He lets out a small breath in relief.
I didn't know if I was okay.
Watching her kiss him really sucked.
I wanted to be okay. I pretended to be.
I pick up Barry's coffee and hand it to him, going to slip his jacket off, but he stops me, "What're you doing? It's freezing."
"I'm not gonna be the one out here for the next few hours." I shoot back, trying to give him his jacket back but he replies quick, "I'm going back to ccpd right now anyway."
A huff leaves my lips in defeat, before my phone buzzes, as I take it out, staring at the text that I had just gotten that lit up my screen.
unknown: stay close to him. you won't have each other for much longer.
I stare at the text, as Barry looks at me confused, "Who texted you?"
"Just- Iris." I lie, looking away, shoving my phone back into my pocket.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
