•Barry's Pov•

I was running with Caitlyn in my arms when I heard that scream.

No!

That can't be Rose!

She said that she was going to be right behind us.

I was tempted to look back but I had to keep running to keep Caitlyn safe.

When the smoke clears and we're at a safe distance.

I look back and see no traces of Rose.

"No, no, no, no. She should have been behind us. She should have been--"

I start to run back but Caitlyn stops me.

"Barry? Barry what happened out there? Where is Rose? Is she beside you?" Dr. Wells says on my radio.

"Are you guys okay?" Cisco asks.

"We're okay, but I don't know where Rose is."

"Barry, the nuclear explosion. There's no telling how much radiation we were exposed to." Caitlyn says with a frightened look on her face.

"You're vitals are normal for your suit. But I can't ping Rose's..." Cisco then gets quiet.

"Rose!" I take off running into the smoke cloud and cough as I inhale some of it.

"Rose! Answer me!"

I look around and hear coughing so I run to it.

I find Ronnie...and Professor Stein.

But where is Rose?

I then feel something grab my leg and I look down to see a hand.

I move quickly and see that it was Rose.

My heart was finally beating back to normal ask pick her up from the ground.

"Hey...is everyone okay?" She asks as she leans against me.

"Yeah, everyone is fine." She smiles at me and for some reason my heart skips.

"Good, cause I'm tired." She passes out in my arms and I lift her up.

"I found her, guys. And the splicer worked." I say over my radio.

I'm happy that everything worked out but I'm mostly happy that Rose was alive.

"We're coming home...all of us..."

***
After everyone was checked out I was in the room alone with Rose.

She was still sleep and I just don't want to leave her side.

"I thought you died. Do you know how much that would hurt Joe? Iris? Me?"

I hold her hand and it was hot to the touch but I didn't care.

"Don't ever scare me like that again..." I lean over an kiss her head.

She groans and turns over.

"Mmm, Iris don't tell Barry.." She mutters.

"Tell me what?"

I frown at that but look up when I see Ronnie enter the room.

"How is she?"

"She's fine, just sleeping."

"I actually came here to thank her. She never left us."

"What do you mean?"

He pulls up a chair beside me and sits down.
