Y/N stood there for a moment, just taking in Barry's embrace, his arms wrapped snugly around her. Barry bent down and kissed her, he pulled away just barely, "Are you sure you're-" Y/N quickly closed the distance and kissed Barry deeply.

She pulled away and whispered a gentle "I love you," followed by another soft kiss.

Then the two heard an awkward cough to the side, Barry pulled away unwillingly. Y/N looked and saw that Barry's cheeks were now bright red. Oliver stood there, arms crossed, but smugness was written all over his face. "I'm gonna go back to Star City now if it's all the same to you," he said walking away.

Y/N stood there in Barry's arms, "Please tell me I didn't hurt anyone," she said looking ashamed of herself.

Barry was quick to lift her chin and bring her eyes back to his own, "You didn't," he said shaking his head, he could see a visible relief in her expression. He knew that this was a lie, but it was a lie he meant to protect her with.

--At S.T.A.R. Labs--

Y/N squinted as Caitlin continued to shine a bright light in her eyes, "So no desire to go all MMA on any of us?" she asked, Y/N simply shook her head. "Well, it looks as though any effect Bivolo had on you is gone," Caitlin said as she finished examining Y/N.

"Thank you," Y/N replied.

"It's not me that you should be thanking, or apologizing to," Caitlin said.

Y/N didn't understand what Caitlin was getting at, "Excuse me?"

"You don't remember do you?" Caitlin questioned as she noticed Y/N's confusion.

She shook her head in response.

"Let's just say that Barry didn't get that black eye from any old metahuman," Caitlin answered as she left the room.

Y/N sat there for a moment in her own thoughts, finally putting the pieces of the puzzle together. She always hated seeing Barry hurt, she just never thought that she would be the cause of that hurt. She looked over at him as he spoke with Cisco and Julian in the Cortex, he must've noticed as he had ended the conversation and made his way over to her.

"You lied to me," she said as Barry entered the med bay.

Barry was brown knit with confusion, "What are you talking about?" he asked.

"You said that I didn't hurt anyone," she said getting up and cupping Barry's cheek in her palm.

Barry put his hand over hers, "I didn't want you to beat yourself up about this, it is not your fault," he explained.

"It's hard not to think that."

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him, "You didn't do this, this is not your fault," Barry repeated.

"I'm sorry," Y/N interrupted. "For earlier, before this whole Bivolo fiasco, for what I said, and what I did..."

"I'm sorry too," Barry added. "I guess we're both in the wrong here, huh?"

"I know, but I'm still so sorry, I don't know what happened, I am sorry," Y/N started, but Barry was quick to interject.

"Baby, you've apologized so many times, you know that we both made a mistake, but we're both okay now."

Y/N shook her head, "I just don't want to lose you for such a stupid action."

"You won't...come on, we are Barry and Y/N, we are the gold standard. We've had good times and bad, but somehow we always manage to come back to each other. Okay, and I promise right here right now that I will always come back to you...always."

"Promise."

"I love you," Barry said with a smile.

"Words don't even begin to say how much I love you," Y/N replied.
