Barry had gone back to work the same day he woke up. Liz thought he might want to take it slow. But he was tired of missing out, though he wasn't even aware that he missed out for 9 months to begin with.

Iris had asked Barry to meet her at Jitters so they could catch up. When Barry got there he saw Iris kiss Eddie.

Barry and Iris went for a walk. During their walk Iris explained how things happened with Eddie. They caught up on lost time.

A police chase came down the road Iris and Barry were walking on. The car swerved and almost hit Iris.

No, not almost. It should have hit Iris. But before Barry knew what was happening he grabbed Iris and moved her out of the way. Seemed simple enough. But he ran faster than ever. Faster than even Liz could run. He didn't understand what he had just done. Weird things had been happening to him all day.

Barry headed to STAR Labs. He knew Dr. Wells would explain what was happening to him.

Elizabeth's POV

Barry had gone back to work. I didn't really understand why he would go back so soon. It kind of made me feel like he didn't want to spend time with me. It was stupid. Though most my thoughts are.

I went home and sat down on my couch. The room had stayed the exact same since the night of Barry's accident. My computer had been left open on my coffee table.

The piles of papers and pencils lay on the floor near my desk. Every room in the house similar to what she was looking at.

That night I had an anxiety attack. I couldn't find my Xanax. Barry had hidden it from me so I wouldn't hurt myself by taking too much. As of right now I still had no idea where it might be.

As I waited for Barry's shift to end I cleaned up my apartment. Once done it was around 7:30, Barry would get off around 9. I went into the kitchen and flipped through my grandmother's recipe book. I couldn't decide what to make. I just hoped I would have a great first night with Barry back.

Finally my eyes landed on the recipe I wanted. I had decided on a salad and lasagna night. Though I was gonna call and make sure what time Barry would get off.

The phone rang all the way through before going to voice mail. "Hey, its Barry. You know what to do." *Beep*

"Hey, Barry its me, Elizabeth. I wanted to ask you what time you got off so I could make you dinner. I guess I will go ahead and make enough for you too. Um... I love you. Bye."

I hung up the phone. Only making me more anxious that he didn't answer. I decided to make myself busy to distract me from the feeling. I looked in my cabinets seeing what I had in stock and what I needed.

It went great. Until my eyes saw the peanut butter. I never really liked peanut butter.

(Flashback)

"Babe, I can't find the peanut butter!" Barry shouted from the kitchen.

I was in the shower and wasn't sure I heard him right. So I didn't reply. He came to the door and knocked.

"You can come in." My body was hidden behind the curtain when I poked my head out.

"Where's the peanut butter?" He asked trying to avoid looking at me for longer than necessary. It was so cute how much of a gentleman he was. Despite what you may have thought, we hadn't had sex yet. So his awkwardness was understandable.

"Um... I am not sure I have any. It might be in the cabinet above the fridge. Why?" I didn't like peanut butter. I didn't like peanuts, let alone anything like it. (Almonds, cashews, etc.)

"I was wanting to put some on my toast,but its no big deal." He left closing the door behind him.

When I finished my shower I got dressed and went into the kitchen myself. I looked in my cabinets and couldn't find any.

"I guess I am out. What kind do you like? I need to go to the store soon anyway." I couldn't remember when I ran out. Let alone when I had last used it.

"Nonsense you don't need to buy any. Its fine, really." He was serious. We had been dating near a month and he didn't let me buy anything. He always insisted on paying or saying that he didn't need it.

"Babe, I need peanut butter either way. Now, which kind is your favorite?"

He sighed, "Crunchy."

I laughed, "That wasn't so hard, was it? Now, go get in the shower you kind of stink." I was teasing him and he played along.

(Present Time)

I missed those days. The early days when we were still getting to know each other. I still haven't ever told him about my distaste of peanut butter. He wouldn't let me continue buying it if he knew. That is if he was still the same person. I honestly didn't know anymore. I hadn't seen him since this morning. He hadn't texted or called. He went to lunch with Iris. I would have joined but I didn't want to intervene or be too clingy.

I went to the grocery store buying food for the next month. I made sure to stock up on a few of Barry's favorites that had expired while he was in his coma. I got another jar of peanut butter too.

I made lasagna and the salad. Around 10:30 he still hadn't called back or shown up. I sighed, I got up to clean up the dishes not really hungry myself.

There was a knock on my door. I set my plate back down and grabbed my wine glass and finished it off in one gulp. I had about four glasses already. I went to the door slightly irritated that Barry knocked on the door. Just cause he hadn't been here in awhile didn't mean he wasn't welcome.

"Hey, Elizabeth could I come in..?"

"What do you want?" I demanded.
