part 9.

"are you going to read the texts or listen to the voicemails?"

"I'm not sure yet"

"Ok...I'm going to bed I'll see you in the morning don't forget to take your pain medication before you go to sleep" she announced standing up.

Barry stared down at his phone screen and opened all the unread texts from his mother.

2:23 pm- barry get milk on your way home x

2:25 pm- it's ok I found some x

8:36 pm- when will you be home??? x

9:12 pm- barry me and your father are getting worried I've called you 4 times and it's going stright to voicemail just let us know your ok x

10:45pm- anwser the phone barry your friends have no idea where you are they said they haven't seen you since last night.

10:47pm- Bartholomew Henry Allen where are you!!!

11pm- Barry come home I'm really worried and so Is everyone else.

Texts from a week later of course there's more texts in between.

2am- please come home you could be dead for all we know me and your father are up all night worrying x

2:20 am- we love you come home x

A month later and of course she's sent him texts daily in between.

10 pm- Barry we know what we asked of you was alot but we're doing this for you and your future she really is a lovely girl and she might not be your iris but iris never truly loved you Barry and everything me and you father have done we've done for you x

From what barry understood his mother had been texting him twice everyday since 2 weeks after his disapreance during the first 2 weeks she'd text him almost every half an hour.

His mother also called him twice a day once in the morning when she woke up and once before she went to sleep and every other day she left him a voice mail.

His father text him once everyday and called him once every other day but didn't really leave any voicemails other family members had tried to get a hold of him and so had his friends and his ex girl friend iris but she'd only text him 3 times.

At some point he moved into his room and read all the messages he'd been sent over the last 9 months.

8 months and 2 weeks after his disapreance.

8am- we just need to know your ok even if you just send us a small message we just want to know your ok x

11pm(henry)- son I know your mad at us but you need to come home your mother needs you she's making her self ill on your birthday she set up a dinner for you just incase you came home this is killing her she barely sleeps or eats anymore she doesn't even leave the house just let us know your ok

Barry let some tears roll down his cheeks he felt so guilty for what he was putting his loved ones through but he wasn't going to do what they wanted him to do.

He just couldn't do it.

He wasnt awear of the time untill caitlin came into his room in her pajamas rubbing the sleep from her eyes with a glass of water in her other hand.

He was listening to a new voicemail at the time and caitlin stood in the door frame to listen to it too.

Barry it's your mum again your cousin thinks your dead but I told him you wern't because I'd feel it your not dead I feel it in my heart... I think at this point I only ring your phone to hear your voice even though you never anwser I know your out there barry we just need to know your ok and I want you to know we all love you very much come home baby boy.

At the end it sounded like his mother was crying caitlin walked towards him and sat down next to him on the bed and rubbed his arm to comfort him "your mother really loves you" she spoke softly.

Barry nodded not trusting his voice.

"Barry?" She asked her voice thick from sleep "What are you still doing awake it's 3:30am?"

"My mother's been calling me twice a day or more since the day I left my father has too" he mumered his voice half muffled by the pillow.

"I could take you home tommrow if you'd like"

"I want to go home I do but... they'll be so disappointed and I know they wouldn't have changed there minds they'll still want me to-" barry wasn't going to tell her what they wanted him to do she'd call him a coward for running away.

"Maybe you could just tell them your ok?"

Barry shook his head "I don't know... it'll only make them want me back even more and it's not fair on them"

"Why don't you just sleep on it?"

Barry sighed "good night caitlin"

"Good Night barry"
