Alex sighed, " I have no choice to help her then. " While walking towards her, his mind was racing with thoughts. Alex thought, " Should I blindfold myself and help her to undress? If I do, I might accidentally touch places where I shouldn't. " He thought of her breast and butt and shook his head to get rid of those evil thoughts.

Alex: " I just got to be brave. I can't risk using my super speed and getting found out about it. Even though she is drunk, she might remember if I use it. Too risky, so that's a no-go." He supported Caitlin and slowly removed her clothing.

In front of him, he can clearly see Caitlin's pearly white and flawless skin as well as her well-shaped body. Alex said to himself, " Ralph from Flash season 4 was very accurate and correct about Caitlin being 34- 25 -34." Alex had to control himself and not pouncing on drunk Caitlin as she was almost naked and had a body of a Greek goddess. He went to get the pajamas for Caitlin and helped her to wear it and tug her in bed.

Caitlin on the bed said " Thank you, Alex, for helping me. Can you come closer? I want to tell you something. " Alex went closer to her to hear what she was going to say and felt a peck on his cheek. When he turned around to question her action, he found that Caitlin was already snoozing on her bed. Not going to disturb her sleep, Alex went out of the bedroom quietly and back home and he knew that tomorrow, Caitlin will having a terrible hangover.

On the next day, Monday morning, Alex was already in S.T.A.R Labs visiting his twin brother before heading to work. It was an excuse to be there to see Caitlin in her hangover state and talk to her. His wish was granted not long as he saw Caitlin wearing sunglasses and a yellow scarf coming out from the elevator. While he was holding a cup of coffee, he said, "Hi." "So loud," said Caitlin as she walked together with Alex to the medical bay, Alex told her, " I just wanted to make sure you are okay."

She told Alex, "I'm not. How are you not hangover? "

Alex replied, " Let's just say that I have a strong alcohol tolerance level. "

Caitlin said, " I can't seem to remember much last night."

Alex: " Yeah... That's probably for the best."

Caitlin said, " Although, I think ... I remember someone bringing me back home safely. Do you know?"

Alex replied hurriedly, "It was me." Caitlin said, " Thanks, Alex. "

They reached the medical bay where Iris was seen beside Barry and greeted Iris. Iris walked towards Caitlin and whispered to her, " How was your night out yesterday? "

Caitlin replied, " It was fun. I got to know more about Alex and Barry..." She whispered, " Iris, I think that ... I kiss someone on the cheek yesterday." " Who's the lucky man?" asked Iris.

Caitlin: " I can't remember. "

Cisco, who was near to them when they were conversing, heard their conversation and went to Alex who was walking back from the medical bay to his Ferrari car.

Cisco: " Hi Alex."

Alex: " Hi Cisco. "

Cisco: " I heard from Caitlin that she kissed someone last night when she was talking to Iris about it."

Alex: " You were eavesdropping? Does she remember who? " He was surprised that Caitlin told other people about the kissing incident.

Cisco: " Never mind that. She doesn't ... I don't remember Caitlin kissing someone in the bar last night. "

Alex: " She didn't kiss anyone in Maclaren's bar last night."

Cisco was wondering about who did Caitlin kiss.

Cisco: " So it's not in the bar. Then she must kiss someone when she went back home. Damn ... Why did I help Caitlin go back home? Wait... " One person pop out in his mind. He turned to Alex, shouted, " It was you!!!"

Alex: " Shh, quiet down Cisco. It is not a big deal."

Cisco: " What did you do? Why did she kiss you? So many questions to ask..."

Alex: " I brought her back home safely, she was pretty loud and clingy on her way back when she was drunk. She kissed me on the cheek ... nothing more. It's only a thank you for me helping her... So chill, Cisco. We are just friends."

Cisco: " Yeah right. She might have feelings for you, Alex. You're kinda sought after by many women. You are handsome, rich and has a profession of a doctor. Who will not chase after you and seek your attention? "

Alex: " I got to go, Cisco. Going to be late for work."

They parted ways after that conversation. On the way to work, while Alex was driving, Alex thought, " Does she have feelings for me? I don't think so, I don't have much love interest in her. She's an interesting friend .. yeah a friend. Nothing more."

He reached a junction where a red light was shown. He summoned his stats to see whether anything had changed as he had no time to check.
