"Did you forget who you're talking to?" Derek says with a tired smile of his own. He nearly mentions that he got knocked around pretty good too in the fight, but that pales in comparison to what Barry went through. Not to mention that every bruise and scratch are worth it to have Barry safe like this. "I'll be sleeping right next to you."

He notices the slight change in Barry's expression and leans down to kiss him, catching Barry's bottom lip between his own before he brushes their noses together. "I'm not going anywhere. Not until I get up and make waffles in the morning, at least."
