Summary: Caitlin reacting to kissing Barry.
Notes: Did a few Cailtin/Barry drabbles, this is the first one.
First Published May 12, 2015.


She had felt Barry Allen's lips.

It felt different from Ronnie's. Strange, but still good. She had kissed him again because it felt good. Having his arms around her, his lips on hers. But at the same time she knew something was wrong.

However, she hadn't felt Barry Allen's kiss.

She had felt someone else's kiss in Barry Allen's body. The Everyman's kiss. Barry wouldn't have kissed her. He was still in love with Iris. But for that brief moment? She wanted it to last. Which is why it's so hard to look at Barry now - why she overreacted when he tried to touch her earlier.

She never expected to feel this way about another person again.

Not after Ronnie.

But she does.

And she wants to kiss him.

For real this time.

But she can't.


THE END.
