A/N: Hope you enjoy the cheese ball ending...

Michelle lingers at a table away from the door. She's watching the reflection in the window in front of her, waiting for Kara to enter, it's been a week now that she's been watching Kara and she has finally returned to her regular routine.

Kara enters Noonan's and realizes that she's being watched. Then she feels the light feeling that she's come to associate with the Periwinkle Kryptonite. "Alex, she's here. I don't see her but I can sense her. Are you sure this will work?" Kara asks anxiously.

"It should, unless she has reformulated it," Alex admits, suddenly worried that she didn't take that into consideration. "Turn around so I can see your eyes," she commands her.

Kara turns to face her and Alex exhales, "I think you're good. Now, just remember to act pleased to see her," she prompts.

"Are you sure that I can't just grab her and fling her into space, because I'd really prefer to do that," Kara asks hopefully.

"No flinging her to space, we need to know where her lab is. Just grab her and distract her so that you can plant the tracker," Alex replies.

Moving to a better spot so that she can watch the scene unfold, Alex begins to fear that Kara's actually under the effect of the kryptonite, just as she's about to signal to Vasquez to move in, she notices Kara glance up to make eye contact with her in the mirror. Exhaling, Alex is relieved. And she exchanges nervous glances with Vasquez as they listen to Michelle and Kara making plans for later as they walk out together. Vasquez turns on the tracker and signals to Alex that it's working, before heading out the door after Michelle.

Alex rushes over to Kara. "That was really convincing, for a minute there I thought that you were actually affected by it," Alex exclaims.

Kara beams happily. "Okay, so she wants me to meet her for dinner tonight at 8 and she's going to text me the restaurant info later," she adds.

"Well, hopefully we'll have her long before then," Alex replies slipping on her motorcycle helmet. "I need to get going, I don't want them to get too far ahead of me," she adds before kicking it to life and taking off after Vasquez.

"How did it go?" Cat asks when Kara hands over her morning latte.

"Really well, they're following her now," Kara replies. "Did you hear anything new about Mr Armstrong?"

"He tried to throw Max under the bus, but Max had proof that Dirk was the one who approached him and provided him the access to CATCO security, which is why they released him," Cat replies.

"Wait, so Lord is free to go?" Kara asks alarmed.

"No, the FBI released him to Homeland security, where he's still being held as a National Security risk," she replies. "According to my sources," Cat adds with a smirk.

"It's weird, after working so hard to keep everything separate, to have you and Hank working together," Kara admits.

"He's been very helpful and I trust him, which I can't say about many people in government," Cat remarks.

After everything that's happened and finding out that Kara is, in fact, Supergirl, Cat has struggled to keep their relationship professional. She has so many questions that she's dying to ask, but she realizes that just because she knows Kara's secret, it doesn't mean that they are anything more than boss and employee. And Cat Grant doesn't befriend employees, so she can't exactly start asking her personal questions. Not to mention it could give the girl the wrong impression, especially after sharing a few kisses with her. Cat nods to herself to keep her mouth shut or this could get messy rather quickly.

"Kara, for what it's worth, I'm happy to know that you have reliable people in your life looking out for you," Cat finds herself saying against her better judgement.

Kara looks up at Cat for a moment, trying to hide her smile. She is so used to Cat ignoring her attempts to make their relationship more personal, that she's more than a bit surprised to hear Cat admit anything remotely close to concern for her.

"Thank you," Kara says confidently, coming around the desk to lean on it and look down at her with a shy smile.

"Why are you thanking me?" Cat asks sharply, hoping to sound annoyed instead of touched.

"Thank you for being one of the reliable people in my life who look out for me," Kara explains placing a hand on Cat's arm as she says it.

Cat's eyes dart from the hand touching her to Kara's blue eyes and then over to the bullpen.

"It's nothing Kara, you've been my assistant for awhile now. I'm not a monster, of course, I care," Cat says sitting back in her chair and rolling it back just enough to remove Kara's hand from her arm.

Disappointment flashes across Kara's face, Cat closes her eyes. I did that she notes to herself.

"I should get back to my desk," Kara replies with a sigh.

Cat opens her mouth to say something, but realizes there's no point. Softening the blow will only encourage something between them and that would be worse than letting this disappointment stand.

"Hank, we found it. Her lab is in an industrial area and from the looks of it, she's been working on this nonstop for the past couple of weeks," Alex says training the binoculars on the windows.

"I'll bring in another team for back up, just stand down until we get there," he commands.

"Yes sir," Alex replies, then relays the information to Vasquez.

"What do we do if she decides to leave again?" Vasquez asks.

"Hopefully she won't," Alex replies.

"Uh Danvers, she's leaving now," Vasquez remarks nodding towards the other building.

"Damn. Well hand me the tracker and I'll stay with her. You stay here and secure the lab until the back up gets here," Alex replies taking the small receiver and heading out after the other woman. Good thing they brought the motorcycle, Alex thinks as she climbs on it and takes off after the small car.

"Kara, have you spoken with Michelle today? She's heading back to CATCO," Alex says connecting the call through her helmet comms.

"No, I haven't heard from her. Why do you think she's coming here?" Kara asks worriedly.

"Maybe because she's pulling into the guest parking lot across from your building," Alex replies riding past and parking the bike in the ally before quickly pulling off her helmet and tac jacket and stuffing them into the saddlebag.

"I've lost her visually, but I'm still tracking her. I think she's heading for the elevator," Alex says cursing under her breath for not having someone posted at CATCO today for back up.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for her," Kara replies standing up and moving towards the elevator with a handful of files.

The elevator opens and Michelle steps out and spots Kara immediately, "Hi," she says smiling at her.

"Uh, how did you know... Oh, right Ms Grant's assistant," Kara replies suddenly feeling that light feeling again as the other woman approaches.

"Can we talk for a moment?" Michelle asks noting Kara's response to her is what she expected.

"T-T-the break room is over there," Kara stammers pointing the way, anxious because she's sure that she's being affected by the Kryptonite again.

Winn looks up just in time to see Kara following the woman away from the elevator.

A few minutes later Alex rushes out of the elevator and over to his desk, "Where's Kara?" she blurts out.

Cat looks up, realizes that Alex is there and rushes out of her office.

"I think she just went into the break room with some woman," Winn replies nervously.

"Where's the break room?" Alex asks.

Cat rushes past her and Alex follows, "Cat, you're not equipped to deal with this stay back," Alex says reaching out for her arm.

"This is my building and that's my assistant," Cat replies jerking her arm away from Alex's grasp.

Alex looks at her a moment, then makes a quick decision. "Okay, you want to help? Then I need you to go in as a distraction but don't get too close to them. I'll wait a few seconds, then come in right behind you," Alex explains the scenario, hoping that this works out and maybe Cat's presence will help Kara fight off the Kryptonite exposure.

"I can't see them in there," Cat says pausing at the door before flinging it open.

"Kara!" She says angrily entering the room to find the two women kissing. "I don't pay you to do this at work, back to your desk," she snaps.

Kara pushes Michelle away and strides over to Cat, aggressively pinning her to the wall. "What's the matter Cat?" She asks nuzzling her neck. "Feeling neglected?" she taunts. Michelle is about to grab Kara again but the door bursts open again.

Alex waited until she could see them, then she enters the room and grabs Michelle. They fight for a minute before Alex gets the upperhand and shoves her against the wall.

Kara releases Cat and turns to help restrain the other woman.

Cat is still leaning against the wall in shock, when Kara turns around to check on her.

"Oh my god, did I hurt you?" Kara asks worriedly when she sees Cat standing still with her arms wrapped around herself.

"Uh, no. But I thought that you were ... you were faking it?" Cat blurts out the question as she unconsciously touches her neck where Kara's lips were just moments ago.

"Sorry, I knew Alex was on her way and I didn't want you to get hurt," Kara replies embarrassed.

"I just... well, that was quite convincing," Cat stammers shaking her head slightly to clear it.

"Kara why don't you take Ms Grant to her office, I think that she's in shock and needs to sit down," Alex points out.

"Nonsense Agent Danvers, I'm fine," Cat says still flushed from everything that just happened.

"Hank's on his way and we'll wrap this up without attracting much attention, but one of you should probably let your security people know what's going on so they don't call the police," Alex suggests, hoping that point will get Cat to go to her office.

"I must have pushed you harder than I thought, it's starting to bruise," Kara says handing Cat a glass of whisky, before lightly touching her neck and shoulder.

"Kara stop hovering, I'm fine," Cat snaps flinching at her touch.

"Ms Grant, it's okay to be shook up. I still can't believe that Alex let you enter that room," Kara replies.

"She needed a distraction and I wasn't going to stand by and let the two of you... I wanted to help," Cat says finishing the sentence quickly. Then rolling her eyes, she adds "Besides, it's not like this is the first bruise that I've received from being pushed against a wall and ...," she adds, then stops herself from finishing and takes a long drink from the glass. "I really thought that you were under the thrall of the Kryptonite again, I had no idea that you could be so convincing," Cat remarks again.

"I saw an opportunity and I made the most of it, Ms Grant," Kara points out, staring at her intently.

"Excuse me?" Cat replies slowly realizing what the girl has inferred.

"Are you surprised that I feel that way or that I am admitting it?" Kara asks boldly.

"Both. Why are you?" Cat blurts out anxiously.

"I saw the photos Ms Grant. And I was there, you may have been drinking that night, but you kissed me back and you were jealous, just like you were today," Kara points out. Her confidence growing at the sight of a flustered Cat Grant.

"I wasn't jealous that night, I was just concerned about you. Kara, I thought that you were drunkenly making out with a stranger in a nightclub and as my assistant, that's unacceptable behavior," Cat replies defensively.

"Yes, but that doesn't explain what happened in the car and how you were affected by me," Kara counters.

"Kara, is there a point to this?" Cat asks impatiently, hoping to get her to drop it.

"Yes, there is," Kara says moving closer to her and taking her hand. "Cat, it wasn't the Kryptonite that made me want to kiss you. The kryptonite just released me from the fear that I had of doing it," she admits.

"Kara, that's not true. Unless you're also saying that you kissed her because you wanted to," Cat points out.

"I kissed her because she was wearing the Kryptonite, but Cat, you weren't wearing any when I kissed you," Kara counters.

"No, but the Kryptonite was nearby and you were affected by it, I saw your eyes, Kara. They were a deep dark blue..." Cat stops talking because she is noticing that Kara's eyes are fully dilated and dark blue.

"I think that maybe you are my Kryptonite," Kara says smiling as she leans in to kiss her.
