"I mean, I guess you can be…" Kasey said teasingly, blushing at her words.

"I'll take that, for now." His eyes sparkled, and he held out a hand to her. "Could you help me up? That cereal is weighing me down." Obviously it wasn't, he just wanted an excuse to touch her hand and he knew it.

"What, did one bowl of cereal make you fat?" Kasey teased, reaching out to him with a light laugh.

Barry clasped her hand in his and used it to pull himself up, ignoring the rush of adrenaline that pulsed through him when their hands met. "Yeah. Gone are the days of flawless abs and perfect muscles."

Kasey, sorry)

(Lol. It's okay.
And totally! That's perfect. I was thinking Kasey has a crush on him, but she hasn't quite admitted it to herself.)

Kasey snorted and rolled her eyes, biting back a smile at the feeling of his hand in hers. "Yeah, I'm sure you had either of those."

(great :)

"I'm all for showing you my flawless six-pack, or at least I would be if it hadn't been destroyed by the murderer that is Fruit Loops.", he joked, sitting down next to her on the bed.

"Uh-huh. Sure," Kasey chuckled, gently pulling her hand from his as he sat down.

Barry sat a safe distance away from her, giving her space.

(what should we do next?)

(Idk, I was kinda enjoying their awkwardness. Lol.
We could skip to morning, if you want.)

"Do you need any pillows or blankets to sleep here?" Kasey asked suddenly.

(lol)
(could we do a bit of the sleepover thing?)

"I'll just grab them from my room and put them on the floor."

(Sure!)

Kasey nodded. "All right. Did you want to do that now, then? Or wait a bit longer?"

"Yeah, I'll get them now." Barry pushed himself off the bed and slipped out of the room. He knocked carefully on the door to his room, not wanting to walk in on whatever Caleb and his girlfriend were doing in there. After a moment, he heard his roommate's voice saying "Come in, the door's unlocked.", and stepped inside. Caleb Xu was sitting on his bed with a young woman in his lap, his girlfriend Naomi. Barry grimaced jokingly and pretended to shield his eyes, grabbing his pillow and blanket. "Hey, Caleb, Naomi. Lucky for you two, I will not be sleeping here tonight so feel free to… snuggle or whatever." Caleb grinned, his hair as messy as usual. "Thanks, man. Who are you staying with?" Barry smothered a grin. "None of your business, Mr. Romantic. See you tomorrow." He left quickly before either of them could guess.

Kasey quickly cleaned up a bit, moving things with her mind as well as her hands. She was careful not to overuse her powers, though, so that she wouldn't get the dizzying, lightheaded migraines that came with that. After a while, the floor was clean and Barry would have space to sleep.

Barry pushed the door of Kasey's room open with his shoulder, his arms full with his blanket and pillow. "I feel like a little kid again.", he laughed, setting them down on the floor. "I haven't had a sleepover in ages."

"Really? I feel like I have one every night with McKenzie," Kasey said with a small laugh, speaking of her roommate. "That girl can talk."

(Omgomgomg Kenzieee)

Barry chuckled. “Not Caleb, he’s out like a light the moment his head hits the pillow.”

(Lol. Yup. That's one of my favorite names.)

"Kenzie blabs so much when she's tired but still awake. It tends to focus on her boyfriend…" Kasey trailed off, rolling her eyes.

(Omg hunterrrr)

Barry laughed. “I feel for you. My insomniac self promised not to keep you up too late tonight. Speaking of which, what time is it?”

(XD I'm so subtle.
Speaking of Huntzie, how far are you on the RP?)

Kasey pulled her phone out of her back pocket and turned the screen on. "It's about four pm. Should we order pizza or something? We could eat as we binge watch the show."

(I started again from the beginning and I’ve been bouncing back and forth between it and re reading some other rps, so I’m only up to the part right before I left notebook for a few months— sorry bout that btw)

“Sure, pizzas always a good idea.” Barry began arranging the pillow and blanket to resemble a bed.

(Omgosh, the beginning is so cringy. Lol. Callie and I both agree.
And that's okay! You have a life outside of this, so I'm not bothered by it.)

"Totally. What do you want on it?" Kasey asked, pulling up the number on her phone.

(Thanks)

“Ummm pepperoni? You choose.” Barry leaned back against the side of the bed, silent for a moment. Lifting one arm and rolling the sleeve of his flannel up to his elbow, he watched two (magic) bird tattoos fly around eachother in joyful circles. One was a crow, matching the tattoo on his collarbone, and the other was a skylark. He sighed, eyes following their movements.

Kasey glanced up when he sighed, smiling when she saw the tattoo.

"I still find it so cool that you can do that…" she declared before trailing off thoughtfully. She cocked her head to the side and blushed a bit before asking softly. "Could you, maybe, give me a tattoo sometime…?"

(Yassss great idea)

Barry glanced up at her, a lopsided smile forming on his lips. “For sure, what are you thinking of?” Although he would never admit it, his pulse quickened when he imagined touching her skin for a prolonged period of time.

Kasey chewed on her lip for a moment as she looked away in thought.

"I want something meaningful, but I haven't decided yet… Do you have any ideas?" she asked as she glanced back over at him.

Barry thought for a moment. “Uhh, I could ink a bunch of objects meaningful to you the occasionally float up and down or move around, sort of like your telekinesis? The names of people you love that erase themselves and write themselves again? Your favourite animal that moves around on your skin? A constellation that appears at night and turned to clouds that mimick the weather of the day?”

"I like the stars one… What about the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper? And they fade when the sun comes up?" Kasey suggested with a shrug, blushing.

"That sounds great, where would you want it. A warning, ribcage tattoos hurt a lot." Barry ruffled his mess of hair.
