Chapter 1

I rush toward the doors of the CCPD without paying attention to my surroundings. I open the door to run inside but I'm stopped by a man holding coffee. The coffee spills all over my new shirt. "Shit!"

"I'm so sorry I didn't see you, are you okay?" I look up at the man and see him looking at me with concern. I stare into his green eyes. Damn, he is cute. After a while I realize I'm staring and look down blushing a bit and the boy smiles.

"Yeah, I'm fine, but not my shirt." He looks at my shirt and just stares. I look down to see what he's looking at and realize I'm wearing a white shirt and he can see my bra.

"Damn it! Hey my eyes are up here." The guy looks up embarrassed and blushes a bit.

"I'm so sorry about the coffee, is there anything I can do?"

"No, I'm fine don't worry about." I put on my denim jacket and buttoned up. "Look, I got to go, I'm going to be late" I enter the building before he can say anything.

Once I get into the building, I look up to find everyone occupied with their own tasks, each one of them having something to do. I go up to guy who is wearing a trench coat and a tie. "Excuse me, I am looking for Captain Singh, I'm the new forensic scientist. I'm supposed to work with Barry Allen."

"I was never told we were getting a new scientist."

"You didn't need to know." Just then a man walks toward us and looks at me. "You must be Miranda Waring, I'm Captain Singh." He holds his hand out and I shake it.

"Captain, why didn't you tell me we were getting a new forensic scientist?" The man in the trench coat looks at Captain Singh with a questioning look.

"Well, Detective West it never crossed my mind to tell you. But it doesn't matter so go back to work." Detective West looks at me then at Captain Singh then leaves.

"So, what should I do?" I look at the Captain waiting for answers. "Ugh, why do they always ask so many questions?" Asshole I thought.

"Well, once I find Mr. Allen he'll show you around." says Captain Singh while he looks around the building probably trying to find my partner.

Just then the culprit of my ruined top walks into the building.

"Mr. Allen late as usual. This is Miss. Waring, she'll be working with you from now on." I look at 'Mr. Allen' and quickly remember his face and he seems to remember me too.

"Wait, Captain you're saying she's my partner, but I never had a partner."

"Well, now you do. Show her around." Captain Singh walks away leaving me and Barry alone. "Great! Now I have a partner I can't believe that Singh doesn't trust me."

"So Miss. Waring follow me I'll show you to the lab." Barry says as he starts walking up a flight of stairs.

"Call me Miranda, I don't like it when people call me by my last name." Barry turns around and grins.

"Well then Miranda, call me Barry."

"Okay Barry." I smile and he smiles back. We walk up to the lab and the first thing that I notice is the huge mess, there are papers on the floor and files piled on top of each other.

"Sorry about the mess." Barry confesses.

"I've seen worse. Once there was a guy who had a family of rats living in his lab, no matter where you were you would always see a rat." I grimace at the memory which causes Barry to burst out laughing, his laugh was so contagious that I joined in.

After a day of Barry showing me around the lab and telling me about his different cases. We decided to go and get lunch together.

"So how often do you come here?" I ask

"Jitters? Almost every day, it's one of my favourite coffee shops"

We order our food and sit in an awkward silence.

"So, when did you know you wanted to be a forensic scientist?" I ask breaking the silence.

"I have always loved science and believe in justice so I thought this would be the perfect job for me, and it is" He gives me a warm smile. " What about you?"

"Well, my mom was a scientist and when I was 6 she read me a book about matter and energy and ever since then I was intrigued by science. Don't judge me for this but I love helping the police find and catch the bad guy, it is exhilarating. The police would be clueless without us.

Barry smirks into his cup and puts it down. "I know what you mean."

I smile and look at Barry and I mean really look at him, He has amazing green eyes that brighten up your day and I really have the urge to play with his hair.

"You're staring" Barry says as he smirks.

"I was not!"

"Yes you were!"

"Nope, I have no idea what you're talking about." I look at Barry and he is staring at me. I stare back. I'm not going to look down and let him think he won. HELL to the NO!

"How long has it been?" Barry asks as his eyes bore into mine.

"I don't know, why don't you check?"

"I'll pass, and just to let you know I'm going to win."

"Wouldn't be too sure Allen, let me share a secret with you, I have the power to make people feel very uncomfortable."

"Well Waring, I feel very comfortable." Barry grins and I can't help but to grin back. Damn it!

"So Barry is there a girlfriend?"

"No, not at the moment, what about you?"

"Well, I prefer boys rather than girls, and I don't have the time for a relationship, plus no one has really caught my eye yet." I was lying. "I thought for a second that Miranda might have liked me even though we just met." I smile, that's the pro of being able to read minds, it is easier to know what people are thinking.

So I hope you like my fanfic so far I just wanted to clarify that Miranda has the ability to read minds and possibly more. When the words are written in italic it means she is reading their thoughts.
