Baby I'm thinking it over

Martha flopped onto Barry’s bed easily, head pressed against the mattress for a moment as her feet worked to kick off her boots one after another. She inched up once they were off, knees bent slightly before she propped herself up on her elbows. She was smiling at Barry pleased that their date night had gone off without a hitch. Dinner on the ledge overlooking the falls, followed by what felt like hours of talking with Martha lying in Barry’s lap, and then a swim in the pool beneath the falls. It was the first time Martha felt as if she were living in a paradise. They had spent so much time working on the medical facility (which she was very happy about), but it left little time to do other things like enjoying their surroundings or even one another.

She knew, inherently, that building a society from the bottom-up would be difficult, but she had no idea how much until she was faced with the small amount of supplies they had. The gifts they received were wonderful, and she was so thankful for the medical equipment that had arrived. She had worried for so long that the birth of children on the island would prove difficult without even basic blood tests. But those fears were slowly subsiding. The gods were rewarding their hard work with things that they needed to get by. But all of those worries were something she was determined to not think about until the morning.

Right now all she cared about was that she was on the bed, smiling a bit coyly at her date. Eyes twinkling in the moonlight that found whatever cracks it could filter through. “I had a wonderful time tonight,” she said before she shifted onto her side, and propped her head up with her hand. “But…” and she paused for a moment here as she bit down on her lower lip. “I do think we could make it better,” she said and then patted the empty spot next to her.

Dating wasn't one of Barry Allen's best skills. Dating on a tropical island with limited resources was even more of a challenge, but he seemed to be doing okay with it if Martha's smiles were any indication. He genuinely enjoyed spending time with her and found it endearing that she wanted to date and get to know him on a more personal level rather than just jumping into a physical relationship. Sure, the concept of 'Sex Island' was appealing, but the reality was not as fascinating as he would have expected. At least not for him.

He was sure that if Cisco was still here, his best friend would be mocking him for going skinny dipping with a beautiful woman — for the second time, though Barry would argue that it didn't count with Patty because of their history — without managing to close the deal. As much as he missed his friend already, Barry was okay without the mocking. Martha was a brilliant woman and worth getting to know, even if they just ended up being friends.

"Oh, is that so?" he asked, watching with amusement as she made herself comfortable on his bed while he kicked off his shoes and stripped down to a pair of boxers for sleeping. He went to sit next to her, raising his eyebrows. "And how do you propose we accomplish that?"

He was kind of hoping for some making out, but he wanted it to be her idea, so he didn't make the suggestion.

Travelling with The Doctor gave Martha a unique perspective of making the best use of her surroundings. There were times when they were in a situation that require ingenuity and guile - it forced them to think outside of the box. That skill was certainly helpful here on the island. Martha could find any number of things to do on a date - there were just so many possibilities. It was nice because it actually forced them to communicate and connect.

She watched Barry as he began to take off his clothes, a single brow raised in curiosity when he was only in his boxers. The temptation for her to strip down to her underwear was there, but for the moment she left her clothes on. She laughed at his question, and shrugged. "Oh, I don't know. You're on the bed, I'm on the bed. We are terribly close," she said as she inched closer to him.

"I think that kissing should definitely be on the agenda," and with that said Martha slid her hand around Barry's neck to pull him close and pressed her lips against his. She opened her mouth slightly, a silent invitation for him to do more.

Kissing was good - very good - and Barry was more than happy to let Martha pull him close, moving his own hand to rest on her thigh as he accepted her invitation and deepened their kiss, sliding his tongue into her mouth to tangle with hers. In hindsight, stripping down to his boxers may not have been his best plan, because as things heated up, it would be far more difficult to disguise his arousal, but it was too late to worry about that.

Barry certainly wasn't expecting anything more than kissing to happen, not that he would be adverse to it, and when he needed to take a break and catch his breath, he leaned his forehead against Martha's with a grin. "You are very intelligent, Dr. Jones," he teased. "Kissing certainly makes things better."

Especially since she was an excellent kisser, in Barry's limited experience.

I am super sorry for the delay!

Martha wasn't sure what exactly Barry was expecting, but like him she wasn't opposed to the idea at all. At least not at that moment. She liked Barry - he was sweet, and smart, and terribly geeky which she adored. And he seemed to like her if the way he was kissing her was any indication.

She moved her tongue against his and her hand slid down from his neck to his bare chest. She didn't need to hold him close when he was doing that on his own. A soft, pleased moan came forth from Martha's throat even when he stopped their kiss. A smile formed across her lips, and she chuckled a bit at his words. "Well, I am a doctor," she teased. "And you should always listen to your doctor." Her nose wrinkled for a moment before she leaned up to steal a kiss.

Martha settled fully onto the bed now, back pressed against the mattress as she looked up at Barry. "I think we should continue, don't you," she asked as she traced a finger down his chest. Maybe there were other things on her mind, things that she wouldn't mind doing when it came to it, but for that moment she wanted nothing more than to kiss and she really wanted him to make the next move.

"If the doctor insists," Barry said, sucking in a breath when he felt her finger trailing down his bare chest. He moved his hand a little higher on her thigh, tracing random patterns with his fingers as he leaned down to kiss her again. He wasn't entirely sure how far she was interested in going though he had no problem finding her limits. He just didn't mind taking his time to do so. Especially when kissing her was so enjoyable.

After kissing for a bit, he moved his hand from her leg up to the hem of her shirt, letting his fingers brush her skin just underneath the cloth, waiting to see if she was amenable before trying to slide his hand further up under it. He loved the way her skin felt under his fingers and hoped that she would let him keep touching her that way.

He was careful to keep his hips back from her leg so she wouldn't feel the erection that was already starting to stir.
