[Iris doesn't deny it... because it's entirely true. But she doesn't think that Barry would leave Oliver stranded on an island for very long. Like a couple of days. Tops.]

Well. Was it?

[unrecognizable]

Almost. I didn't actually get to set mine up.

[ As if to confirm his guilt he reaches into the pocket of his leather jacket and produces a small mistletoe, along with an arrow head to pin it with ]

Which means I think I'm allowed one kiss under good conscience.

[To be fair, Iris was always going to give him a kiss under the mistletoe and Barry was always going to freak out about it, so. Might as well make the most of it.

God he's tall. Not as tall as Barry but enough that she still has to tip her head back to look him in the eye.]

I think it's okay this one time.

[unrecognizable]

It is. Besides, I trust you'll protect me. One voice raise from you and Barry will submit.

[ His evidence being the way that Barry is constantly making puppy dog eyes at her; that and no one is going to call Iris timid

There's a...weak attempt at being a gentleman. Kissing her cheek. It falls by the wayside once their close enough though and he's leaned in to adjust for the difference in height. It isn't exactly chaste, how his lips press against hers, but he doesn't let it linger too long...maybe Barry won't lock him STAR Labs ]

Worth it, by the way. I'm willing to accept my fate now.

[She would protest... but Barry does listen to her more than anyone else. And he does tend to overreact and she's always there to pull him back towards sanity.

Iris tips her head back when he comes in for the kiss. She even returns it a little bit, because let's be honest. This is the only time she's going to kiss Oliver Queen and she's going to enjoy it, damnit. It's a good kiss.

He's just so very obviously not Barry and turns out she's a sap in love too.]

This can just be our little secret. He'll never have to know.
