*The next morning* *Sara's POV*

"So, how are things going with Barry?" Laurel asked, smirking.

"Great."

"Have you guys been on a date yet?" Laurel asked.

"--"

"No, they're going to the movies on Saturday," Ava chimes in.

"Ooh, this is a--'Sparry' memory to remember."

"Great ship name!" Diana chimes in.

"Speaking of the your 'boyfriend', here he comes," Ava squeals.

"Seriously, guys?" I sigh.

"Hi," Barry says, coming over.

"Hi."

"Hi."

"Just get on to the conversation!" Laurel screams.

"No, Laurel. They're having their moment," Ava explained.

"So, Bar--do you mind me calling you that?"

"No, not at all."

"Great--so I meant to ask yesterday, what movie are you inviting me to?"

"The Lego Batman Movie. If you want, we can change it?"

"No, it's fine."

"Sara--," Ava warned me.

"Barry--"

"Sara--," Ava tried to warn me again.

"What?!"

I turn around, seeing Robbie, frowning.

"Robbie, I can explain--"

"There's no need, I already the answer," he says, storming off.

"Well..."

"Go after him!" Laurel insisted.

I follow Robert to the back of the room.

"Robbie--"

"Why couldn't you tell me?"

"I was going to tell you this morning, but--"

"Yeah, I get it Barry can be a charmer."

"What?! What do you mean?"

"Hasn't he told you yet? We are half brothers."

"He was going to tell me at that moment."

"Well, sorry that I ruined the moment," Robert turns around.

"Robbie, listen---I know I should've told you sooner, so I'm telling you right now."

"I'm listening."

"Look, I'm sorry. But my feelings are gone for you...Plus, you deserve better....Sorry, I didn't tell you sooner."

"It's okay."

"Friends?"

"Friends."

I walk up to the group, with a gleaming smile.

"So, how did it go?" Diana asks, curiously.

"It went good. Everything's cleared up with Robert."

"That's good."

*Robert's POV*

I still don't understand why Sara sees in Barry. I mean, besides, his charm, his height, and he's really good with conversations. Why do I have such a perfect a half brother, but doesn't matter, Sara's under spell, it doesn't matter anymore.
