Summary
All of the air seems to be sucked out of the room. There’s a dazed moment where Barry thinks he hallucinated the name that just came out of Wells’ mouth, but Wells is waiting patiently for his reply so Barry hesitantly repeats, “Hartley… Rathaway.”
Wells nods. “He is the prodigal son. And he has returned. Come,” Wells gestures at the front door. “We can talk more at the lab. Hartley and I have quite the history.”
The only thing stopping Barry from saying, “Me too.” is the fact that he thinks he’s dreaming. He pinches himself but doesn’t go anywhere. He remains rooted in reality, stumbling after Wells as he calls his personal driver to escort him to the lab.
(Or Barry and Hartley meet long before he becomes The Flash and become very close, but things take a turn when Barry goes into a coma and wakes up nine months later to find that Hartley has dropped off the face of the Earth.
Things only become more complicated when Hartley reappears again, only to become dead set on being an enemy to The Flash but maybe… Barry can make things right again, and make a very useful ally in the process.)

Summary
He takes a seat on the bed, head hanging. His shoulders shake with suppressed sobs and his hands tremble. The first tear escapes on its own accord. Barry wipes it furiously, not giving into the torrents of emotion threatening to break past his stronghold. If he did, he’d never resurface for air again.
“Are you alright?” Oliver asks, uneasiness in his voice.
It’s a simple question that requires a simple answer, but Barry is anything but simple. So, half truth: “I don’t know.”
