Default Problem with flash in Creative Modes on T2i

Hi,
I am very new to my camera and having trouble with using flash while in a "creative" mode. Based on my manual I should just be able to push the button that pops up the flash and then when I shoot in, say, Av mode it should flash, right? But I am not getting a flash at all. It will throw out the metering lights and then proceed to tell me it's going to give me a 5 second shutter speed. I'm obviously missing something.
