I can't believe you let me down, But the proof is in the way it hurts.

Patty immediately regretted agreeing to see Barry, but there was no going back now. Things were going alright here. She managed to avoid Cisco as much as possible, something that she felt awful about but had to do for her own self preservation, and she even managed to make a few friends. She might have even caught the eye of Ray Palmer, the Ray Palmer, something that wouldn't have happened to her in her wildest dreams, and for the first time since she left Central City, Patty felt alright. No, she felt good, and that all came crashing down as soon as she saw his face.

She didn't know what made her more angry.

Patty didn't get angry, but Barry had certainly managed to get her there.

She was pacing outside of her shelter back and forth, arms crossed before her chest, and she was considering just leaving so she wouldn't be there when he arrived before she caught the sight of him out of the corner of her eye. She froze, suddenly painfully aware of the fact that she was wearing little more than cut up fabric tied in a makeshift bikini top and skirt, but she still tried to hold her head high as she eyed him. He was always so handsome. Why couldn't he have had a meaner face? It would have been so much easier to just send him away like that. "Barry..."
