Hi friends :) I’ve no idea what fics/pairings people here would like, but here’s a coldwestallen I wrote a few days ago. It’s not one that I write a lot, but I enjoyed writing this. Hope you enjoy reading it!

He gave her an indulgent smile. “Fine. I’ll be patient.” He hummed a bit, his eyebrows squeezing into a frown. “Is it bad to have fantasies about someone when you’re actually dating them?”
She laughed and patted his shoulder. “Oh my god, Barry. You’re so demi. And so cute.”
”I know.” He chuckled. “Can you believe it took me till college to figure that one out?”
It had been a long time since she’d heard him talk like this about anyone except her. The thought didn’t make her jealous, she was almost surprised to find—just excited for a future with their new third. If they could get Leonard to stay. It was just going to take some work, for all them. Slow, patient work.
But Barry, at least, knew all about waiting till the person he loved was ready. He was still grinning at her comment, a little of the boyish charm peeking through that used to be so familiar. It was fading as he got older and wiser, as his innocence was chiseled away like a sculpture by a multiverse that had taken a knife to his heart too often. Her own youth was too fast disappearing with everything they’d seen, too. But she still saw sides of her Barry Allen that he didn’t show to anyone else. She didn’t doubt that Leonard got to see facets of Barry that she didn’t, too. And again, Iris found she was nothing but pleased for the two of them.
It was too early to be so sure that this was real, but she was.
Barry was watching her, eyes thoughtful and sparkling. “Penny for ‘em?”
“Hmm?” She dropped her gaze from where it had locked onto the ceiling and looked over at him. “Got distracted. Sorry.”
“I can see that.” He leaned up on his hand, raising a beguiling eyebrow at her. “You wanna get back to what we were doing, or…?”
She grinned at him. “You were heading in a very positive direction.” She reached out to kiss him again. “Feel free to tell me a bit more about these fantasies about Leonard Snart, if you’re in the mood for it.”
