Barry watched in a stunned silence, but he couldn’t help but smile. “I didn’t know you and Hartley were together.” He smiled softly, running a hand through his hair as he kept an eye on his friend. “And you might want to stop because of your health as well.”
“We aren’t together, we just cuddle a lot and kiss sometimes. We aren’t official, anyway. I mean, going to the gala together was a pretty big step if you ask me.” Cisco smiled, finishing his drink and resting his head on his hand. “He’s great though. He listens and understands what I’m trying to say, even when I’m really flustered. He likes Harry Potter and I’ve already planned a marathon of all the movies while he’s recovering. Damn. I need to make a new set of earpieces for him.” He rambled, turning his head to Barry. “Can I bring him with me to work? Is that allowed? He’ll be like a puppy.”
Violet: I’ll always be here for you. I was with you before and I’ll be with you later. But why are you texting me when you should be paying attention to your boyfriend. Just have a good night and use protection.
Cisco: That’s really reassuring. Shhh. I had to plug in my phone. I heard it beep b/c it was dying. We’re not having sex, Vi. Be safe, okay? The streets are becoming less and less safe. love you
Violet: What part of you, Cisco? What part don’t I know? You as a sexual being? Cisco, it’s normal, okay? And I’m not leaving your life. I’m just letting you explore on your own. I’m not jumping to conclusions any more. I was told to stop judging you and needing to know every detail because it’s none of my business. I just want you to be happy. That’s it.
Cisco: I haven’t seen you since you came to the lab when I was locked up. Hell, there are times I’m tempted to go back and lock myself up. I’m happy when you’re around. Vi, I /need/ you.
“Okay, cool.” Lian replied with a nod as she stood beside him. “Hmmm, I think Italian works I haven’t had that in a while.” She smiled, “Since you know this place better then I’ll do we can go wherever you see fit.”
“Italian is my favorite. I like your taste.” Cisco said with a grin as he lead the way out to his car. “There’s a really good one in the middle of the city. It’s about a 10 minute drive in this traffic. You down?” He asked, opening the passenger door for the woman.
Violet: Cisco. Why are you angry with me. I’m leaving you alone. That’s what you wanted. That’s what I’m supposed to do. Let you be happy.
Cisco: I’m not necessarily angry, just frustrated. You’re jumping to all these conclusions before you even hear the whole story. You don’t know this part of me, and I’m not happy without you in my life. As cheesy as that sounds. I /need/ family like you in my life. Family that cares.
