Chapter: The One and Once Super P.1
"That's the problem!", the ravenette yelled out. Olive green eyes narrowed in the direction of the blond haired fallen hero sprawled on the cracked marble floor.
Alex growled, she dropped her glass and bent down slightly, she pulled the bottom of her dress up slightly, revealing quite a bit of her pale creamy legs and reach to her thigh, she grabbed her favorite gun that she strapped to her leg and took it out, "Lucky I brought this"
Maggie did the same thing, and the so did the other ravenette.
"No fair, Danvers. We got normal guns, why do you always get the cool toys.", Maggie pouted as she and Alex ran off. Alex running ahead due to her concern over her sister.
The other ravenette sighed out and turned to the Luthor and her assistant, gun in hand, "Luthor, you both gotta get outta here."
Lena hummed in agreement, she knew she couldn't exactly do much to help, so she tugged Jess quickly.
"Lucy!", came Lois's voice.
Lucy turned to her sister, "Lois, for christ's sake, get the hell out of here.", Lucy urged Lois to go with the fleeing guests.
Lois scoffed, "Yeah...right. This isn't my first gig with Alien battles, Baby Sis, I helped the airforce take down Zod and his men back in the invasion of metropolis last year. You can't expect me to run now, this is probably some small fight."
Lucy rolled her eyes, Lois had some point.
"Fine, where's superman?"
and as Lucy asked this, out came Clark donning his supersuit and cape.
"Right here", the kryptonian floated to the two Lane sisters, "You two, leave, the DEO, and I will handle this, I found multiple bombs scattered around the area.", Superman explained.
Lucy released a breath, she noticed Kara getting up to her feet again, concern in her facial features as she saw how tired Kara looked suddenly, "What's wrong with her?", she asked suddenly.
Lois hummed and looked passed Clark, Clark also turned to see his cousin.
"Kara?", Lois said softly at the sight of...blood.
Clark's own eyes widened, his heart began to race, "oh no".
Lucy shook her head, "oh no is totally right, Superman you could be in danger yourself, let me and the DEO handle this.", the Lane's gaze was filled with concern.
if there was on thing everyone knew, it was that Kryptonian's never bled. unless Kryptonite was somehow in the mix.
Kara grunted as she coughed slightly and turned to Clark and the two Lane's, she looked spent, "Kal, we gotta go.", she muttered and with the strength she had left, she turned and began to leave, going the oppsite way she came crashing in from, she hopped in the air and her feet hit the floor again, she was attempting to fly away, to leave. She struggled.
Something about Kara's words surprised him, he'd never seen Kara flee.
but clearly she was doing just that.
it took Kara a few tries to managed to get off the floor, she fairly quickly flew out a broken window.
Lucy and Lois were slightly baffled, but they agreed with the female kryptonian, Kal needed to leave.
Lois grabbed onto Clark's arm, "Let's go superman."
Superman grunted, "I'm not leaving, people may very well still be here."
and as he said this, gunshots began to ring out, a bullet struck him, but it bounced off, he quickly dashed forwards, grabbing both Lanes, flying them to them to cover.
as they touched down, They noticed Alex and Maggie behind some pillars, both women firing their weapons.
Lois covered her ears, "I always hated guns", she sighed out.
Superman turned to Alex and Maggie, he noticed Winn taking cover at the very end of the large room, he had nothing to protect himself with.
"Winn's still here? kinda figured he'd be the first one to have gone with the guests.", Lucy said out loud, she crouched down and pointed her gun at a figure that was armed that stood on the other side of the room, she fired.
Winn scoffed, "I heard that!"
Alex snickered slightly.
Maggie grinned as she managed to shoot a man down.
"Got one.", Maggie said as she was shoulder to shoulder with Alex.
Alex sighed out slightly, she would have been concerned for Kara, but clearly Kara had left, she saw her sister flee.
it urked Alex slightly, but relieved her.
~~~~~
"Ms. Luthor, Where are you going?", Jess asked as she tailed Lena closely.
Lena hushed the woman following her.
"I saw someone going around back.", Lena whispered.
Both women had managed to get away from the fleeing figures, Lena had notied somethig odd, a figure roaming around, she got curious, and thus, here she was.
diving into danger.
once again.
Jess and the Luthor both hurriedly walked towards the back of the building, away from prying eyes.
"Ms. Luthor, Please, we're going to end up like last time.", Jess muttered in a hushed tone.
it was the first time she brought this up.
Lena paused in her tracks abruptly, causing for Jess whom was following her closely to bump into her.
Lena turned to Jess, "If this is scaring you, then I suggest you go back.", the Luthor was clearly growing annoyed
but as she said this, before Jess could speak, a loud crash got their attentions, they both jumped as Supergirl crashed into the grass, creating a crater in the ground.
Jess's eyes locked onto the figure.
Lena's own eyes were were drawn to the blondes ever still figure.
"K-Kara!", Lena found herself yelling, not helping it, not helping the fact that she wanted nothing to do with the blonde.
Or at least Lena made herself believe that.
Jess felt fear growing in her. "She doesn't look so good.", Jess muttered.
Lena's heart ached, it clenched in her chest, she felt a heavy weight set itself on her, her eyes watered up involuntarily, she moved before her brain could process her actions thoroughly.
Kara remained in place, she was laying face up, her chest slowly rising and falling.
The Luthor felt an undeniable amount of guilt begining to fill her. She huffed as she ran to the woman, eyes not leaving Kara's figure.
Jess remained still, staying against the brick wall, watching from afar.
"Kara, Kara!", Lena made it to the woman, she quickly dropped beside her, kneeling, she noticed the blood and bruising, she knew this wasn't normal. She rose her hands, she set a hand over Kara's heart, the other over the side of her face, she bent slightly, getting closer to the blonde. "Kara, Sweety, Open your eyes", Lena managed to say a bit out of breath. Her emerald eyes were watery.
Kara's eyes were closed, she was still for a moment, until her blue eyes opened just the slightest, quickly meeting emerald eyes.
"Wh-", she was going to speak, but before she could, her eyes fully snapped open, and in the blink of an eye she created space between herself and Lena, surprising Lena when dirt rose up as Kara used her superspeed to get away from the Luthor.
Lena once again felt a pang in her chest.
she saw fear flashing across Kara's face.
Kara...feared her.
"Kara-", Lena's voice sounded so small and broken, it cracked.
Kara's blue eyes broke eye contact, she settled her gaze to Jess, "Jess, You need to get going!", the blonde warned, and without giving Lena a glance more she spoke to her, "and you too, Ms. Luthor. It's not safe here, I don't have the strength to protect you.", Kara sounded slightly out of breath suddenly.
Lena glared at Kara suddenly, She wasn't going to let Kara be this far from her, no.
Lena got up to her feet and walked to Kara's kneeling figure, she was determined, she reached out and grabbed Kara roughly by the arm, tugging her, "If you aren't strong enough, then you should be leaving too!"
Kara growled, "Let me go!", she said slightly aggressively, finally giving Lena her full attention, "What's it matter to you?", Kara spoke with a bit of bite.
Lena held Kara's strong gaze, she frowned heavily, "You're weakened, no doubt Kryptonite is present, you can get killed."
"So! Why do you care!?", Kara rose her voice, she felt her heart begining to ache, in one swift movement she tugged her arm out from Lena's grasp, "You don't get to tell me what to do!", Kara stumbled back slightly, but managed to keep her balance, "I don't have to do what you people want, not anymore.", she began to step away from the Luthor.
Lena gritted her teeth, trying not to show emotion, this was her fault, she pushed Kara away, maybe to far out of reach.
"Kara-"
"No! You can't just pretend to care all of a sudden!", Kara yelled, she was angry, hurt, her voice shook with anger. "I'm a Super! You're a Luthor! We don't mix remember! You said it yourself", Kara pointed a shaky finger at the ravenette, "Now Go!", she yelled.
Lena balled her fists up, she sneered out of pure anger, she cared, she really did, she was hurt back then, she said things she didn't mean. "Kara you don't understand-"
"No!", Kara cut her off, "You don't understand, Lena! You don't understand anything! You don't understand what I go through, or what I've already been through, You don't and you never will!", the blonde was just yelling. Tears rolling down cheeks. "I messed up, I know, But you had to understand my fears, but you didn't, you broke me!", Kara's voice shook at the last three words.
Lena winced at the blonde's words.
Jess whom was still standing by, wasn't sure what to do, she was merely struck stiff.
"You hurt me. Because you didn't see where I was coming from, why I was so afraid! But I get it, I somehow Get where you're coming from, You're human, your instinct is to fear things you don't understand. I get it, and I must of looked stupid to think that you'd get me", Kara threw her arms fown to her sides, her chest heaved, "You wanted nothing to do with me, then suddenly you pretend to care again!"
Lena felt her heart throbbing in pain, she stepped forwards, wanting nothing but to comfort the woman she hurt out of pain. but stopped when to her surprise something landed in front of her in a blur, she stumbled back when she noticed what it was.
a sword.
Jess yelped when she realized whom it was that threw the object. She looked on as the Amazonian figure walked towards the two women.
"Little one.", The woman spoke softly, gaze set on the kryptonian.
Kara turned to the ravenette. "Wonder Woman.", she stiffened. Eyes teary, cheeks stained with Tear tracks.
Lena was shocked that a sword was practically thrown her way.
The Amazonian released a breath, she was all decked out in her superhero look.
"Ms. Luthor, I believe the Civilians are running that way.", Diana said as she pointed towards where Lena and Jess had come from to get here.
Lena frowned heavily, "I didn't notice.", She said with sarcasm.
Diana's facial features were bland and plain, she walked to Kara's side, she wrapped an arm around the woman, with her free arm, she reached out and grabbed her sword that had so firmly dug into the ground to prevent Lena from coming closer to Kara, she took the sword and put it behind her strapping it to her back against her shield. she ignored the Luthor's sarcasm and gave Kara her attention, "Come, Superman and Batman have handled the bombs, the crooks got away, but everything has calmed down. I can take you home"
Kara nodded her head and allowed for the woman to sweep her off her feet and carry her.
Diana gave Lena one last glance, and then turned away from the woman, she then flew off with Kara in her arms.
Lena's emerald eyes not leaving Diana's back until her figure left completely out of sight.
"Damn it."
~~~~~
"Kryptonite was present, Clark", Bruce said as he sat in his hotel's bed.
Clark sat down on a chair and released a heavy sigh, "I know, but that's never stopped Kara before, she's never ran from a fight."
Bruce shrugged, "I was surprised myself when Diana told me she flew her home. Barbara and Dick were able to collect the kryptonite gas canisters, They think that was what the bombers shot Kara with to weaken her so."
the kryptonian merely nodded, he felt horrible, tonight was supposed to be a good night, but it went to shit, and he also heard that Lena and Kara encountered each other outside, Diana intervened.
"What's going on with her?", Bruce piped up, "Kara's tough, But lately she hasn't been showing up as Supergirl. Crime rates are increasing."
Clark nodded, "I don't know. Lucy managed to have a few words with her, but that was it."
Bruce hummed, "Words?"
Clark nodded, "Kara wants to give up being supergirl."
~~~~~
Kara released a shaky breath as she hit the shower, still feeling tired.
it was no doubt on an Emotional level.
Last night was quite the drainer for her, she was hit was gas that had kryptonite in it. She was still felt the burn in her chest from inhaling the gas.
as she got out of the shower she ate and then began to go, to just head out for a walk.
She told Lena how she felt, but not all of it of course, only what came to mind in that moment.
She was hurt, hurt that Lena had rejected her true self.
Lucy's words came to mind suddenly, the Lane was nice and sweet. It must be a Lane thing, Lois was always so gentle towards Clark, she accepted him right off the bat. and Lucy did the same thing, Lucy knew her and encouraged her to be herself.
'Lucy'. The woman sighed out heavily. The Lane was beautiful, smart and tough.
Kara thought she could totally stand to have her romantically.
even though James dated her in the past, but that was the past. and James missed that chance, Lucy seemed to have moved on. and so has Kara.
The blonde knew that she only liked the Lane, not loved, her heart didn't do those funny acrobatics and odd thumps and skips for for the tough Lane, her heart however, did do that...But for someone she couldn't have.
and Kara gave up, she thought that there was a chance, before The woman that holds her heart woke up, before the woman forgot that she accepted Kara then and there.
Kara stepped out of her loft and began to leave the building, she released a breath and as she turned the corner to head down the stairs, she bumped into someone, that someone was about to fall back, but Kara reached out and grabbed the person.
"Umph! Geez", the figure squeaked out.
Kara hummed, and pulled back, she saw the woman, and smiled sheepishly, "Hey", she said.
The woman returned the smile, her eyes stared gently and tenderly at the blonde that held her, "Hey yourself, ya' brick wall.", the woman chuckled softly.
Blue eyes gazed softly into Olive green ones.
Kara released the woman, she rose an arm to rub the back of her head, "Uh-heh. Lucy, What brings you here?", the blonde couldn't help but get to the point.
Lucy shrugged, she reached out and placed a hand on the super's bicep, "Just wanted to come see you, I was a bit worried.", the woman admitted, her hand grasping gently at the super's muscle. "Besides I'll be leaving soon."
Kara's smile died off her face, she frowned gently, she was disappointed of course, "Oh...How soon?", the kryptonian questioned.
Lucy hummed, "I'll be leaving first thing monday.", Lucy licked her lips slyly, she then bit her bottom lip for a moment and then she began to tug the blonde by her arm, pulling her down the stairs, "How's about we hang out?"
Kara nodded and she follwed the ravenette, she allowed for Lucy to hug her arm, the woman was basically clinging to her, but she didn't mind honestly.
the duo left the building and began to walk around, they made their way to Lucy's car, but Kara told her that she wanted to just simply walk, and Lucy accepted the idea, and so they walked to the park, they stopped by an ice cream cart, They brought ice cream and just wondered around.
"It's so nice today", Lucy couldn't help but say, she gave her strawberry ice cream a few laps and glanced at the bright clear blue sky.
Kara agreed, it was nice out, she expected it to be rainy, but it wasn't. She found an empty bench, she geastured for Lucy to follow her, they both sat down in front of a large sand box, Kids ran around or simply just played in the sand. Kara managed to finish her cone before Lucy, she licked her lips and merely gazed forwards. she looked at the kids play.
"How do you feel?", Lucy piped up.
Kara shrugged, "Okay.", she answered, her eyes following a dog that ran around with it's owner.
she faintly remembered her own dog, a dog she had named Krypto, it was a white furred dog, he was merely a puppy, she didn't have him for much time since she was sent away with Kal to come to earth, avoiding the fate of the rest of their race.
She sometimes wondered what life would have been like if she'd come on time with Kal, If she'd been the one to raise him.
as Kara develed deeper into her thoughts, she felt a warm hand fall onto hers, she felt the woman shift closer to her.
Kara came out of her thoughts and looked up, blue eyes met with green.
"If there's anything you want to talk about, I'm a good listener.", Lucy said softly, her gaze was sincere.
The kryptonian thought for a moment, eyes darted to those pink lips for just the shortest moment, she then took her eyes of the woman's very alluring lips, and nodded.
Lucy released a small breath, "C'mon, let's walk some more.", the woman stood up, taking a hold of the blonde's hand, she tugged her up.
Kara stood up from the bench and allowed for the woman to lead the way, Lucy's hand was in her own. Kara didn't mind, she merely smiled sheepishly as Lucy intertwined their fingers.
"are Clark and Lois going when you go?", Kara spoke as they walked down a path that was leading to a short walk/bike trail. the sounds of running children and dogs or just chatting people began to die down the further they walked into the secluded path.
Lucy shrugged, she turned her head to glance behind them, and hummed when she noticed no one behind them, then turned to the side and began to pull Kara off the trail, she answered Kara. "They'll be sticking around a bit longer actually, I think Ms. Kent'll be coming too."
Kara looked around when Lucy pulled her behind a few trees and thick bushes and shrubs, they were no doubt out of sight, "Martha's coming to National City?", this slightly surprised her.
Lucy merely nodded when she stopped in her tracks, her hand still in Kara's, she turned to directly face the kryptonian. "Yep."
Kara's eyes filled with questions, she looked around and knew they were completely alone, she began to grow a bit nervous, she wondered why Lucy led her here. "Uh...oh.", she said in reply to Lucy's word, she swollowed thickly. her heart began to pick up pace.
The ravenette's eyes seemed to darken slightly, she released Kara's hand and rose her other hand, she placed it over where Kara's heart was begining to thump a tad bit faster. the woman smiled slyly, she felt the kryptonian's heart thumping wildly and strong against her palm, her facial expression softened.
Kara was at a loss for words, she swollowed thickly once again, she began to catch on to what was going on, she ran her tongue over her bottom lip to moisten them slightly, she slowly began to reach out with her hands, she settled them over the hips of the woman in front of her.
Lucy's heart sped up a bit, she allowed for the kryptonian to pull her closer. She rose her other hand and settled it over the side of the blonde's face, she held the cheek gently, the pad of her thumb carassing the skin there.
Kara released a small faint breath, "Lucy.", she merely muttered, it was in a small soft voice. the Blonde began to lean down and forwards, eyes softened considerably.
Lucy closed her eyes, she met the taller woman halfway, her hands remained where she had them. Kara's however, moved once their lips met, their lips just crushed against each others, the Blonde had wrapped her arms around the shorter woman, eager to deepen their lip lock.
The ravenette didn't hesitate to part her lips for the blonde, she could feel the kryptonian's heart thumping against her hand, she moaned into the woman's mouth when the super's tongue pushed against hers.
they fell into a deep makeout session, Heavy petting here and there on Kara's part, the kryptonian was secretly bold, this Lucy discovered within moments, before she knew it, Kara had her against a tree, kissing the side of her neck and soon went back to deeply kissing the woman on her lips.
"Wait", Lucy halted the kryptonian once Kara had her pinned up against a tree, the Lane's legs wrapped tightly around Kara's waist, she panted slightly, their lips were a mere centimeter apart, a small string of saliva was the only thing that kept their lips connected.
"Wh-What?", Kara said a bit breathless, her nose against the Lane's own, they both breathed a bit uneven. Kara had the woman against a tree, she wanted to move forwards, but clearly didn't think so clearly.
Lucy had buried her hands into Kara's blonde locks, she sighed softly, "Can we take this somewhere more...comfortable?", Olive green eyes were half lidded with lust.
Kara nodded, she felt her body growing hot, she needed to finish what's been started here.
~~~~~
"Jess?", Lena spoke with slight surprise in her tone.
The Luthor was certainly surprised to have the Assistant here standing on the other side of her penthouse's door.
Jess smiled weakly, a small bag in her hands, she reached out with it, "Sorry to bother you Ms. Luthor, But I wasn't sure of what to do with these.", the woman's eyes had drifted to the small black bag in her grasp.
Lena rose an eyebrow and looked at the bag for a moment, hesitant to reach out and take it, she released a small breath, and then her eyes looked up to meet Jess's gaze. "What is it?"
Jess blushed slightly, "Um...Dave, head of the Security cameras dep. gave it to me, told me to figure out what to do with it. After the hack last time he was a bit concerned."
Lena was still unsure, she took the bag and opened it, "a tape?", emerald eyes darted up to meet dark brown.
Jess nodded, "I saw nothing wrong with it, but he thought it better to just hand it over to you. I guess he thought it was a bit compromising"
"Compromising?", Lena was still at a loss.
Jess sighed softly, "The physical contact you shared with...Supergirl. He thought that getting the tape in your hand was better than just leaving it around, risking it leaked out or something. The press would have a fit, definitely if they got a hold of it."
Lena facial expression grew into one of slight hurt, physical contact? She wondered for a moment, if it happened, if she and the super actually made an attempt to step forwards.
Lena looked down for a moment, "physical contact?"
Jess shrugged, "It isn't serious, but it's definitely not someone would expect you to do...Not because you're...who you are, but...", The woman struggled for words, "Just take it", the woman gave up on finding words.
Lena nodded and sighed, she gave Jess a small weak smile, Jess was fairly aware of everything that's happened to her and Kara's friendship. and even before she woke up, Jess had a better grasp over the situation.
she grew curious.
Jess was going to leave, she released a tired breath and said her goodbye, "Once again, sorry for the bother. Good day, Ms. Luthor."
The Luthor hesitated, her eyes were on Jess's back as she began to take her leave, Lips parting just as Jess was almost out of arms reach, "How did I react?", she said a bit out of breath.
Jess stopped in her tracks. She thought for a moment, "From what I saw and what you told me, you were okay, just worried for her.", Jess sighed and turned to face her boss, "After she left to fight the Alien, before we encountered Mr. Lord, and before the DEO partially raided L-Corp for Superman's body, which so happened to have crashed into HR. We talked...about it, I mean, at the time I didn't know Supergirl was Kara, or at least I wasn't sure, I had an idea when you said you were all attacked at the café, and well, Supergirl was wearing what Seemed like Kara was wearing that day.", Jess explained, "You accepted her, tried to help her, You and Superman spoke over it, you called him 'Kal-El'."
Lena hummed, "Kal-El, I always knew the name, but it's not the earth nam-", and it finally hit Lena like a tome of bricks. Lena pieced it together, Superman's identity.
Clark Kent.
Lena's mouth fell agape for a moment as she finally realized.
Jess noticed Lena grow silent, the Luthor fell into thought.
"Ms. Luthor?", Jess said as she fully turned her body to the Luthor.
Lena rose a hand and ran it through her loose curly hair as she realized.
"I...messed up.", Lena said as she released a small breath, over and over again she felt guilt rising in her, brewing in her chest.
Jess felt the air between them shift, she gave the Luthor an apologetic smile. Never would she have thought that she'd grow closer on a personal level with her boss, the woman was always reserved and private, but ever since Kara dropped into the woman's life, she had changed, she smiled more often and relaxed a bit more.
Jess could see the hurt between the two women. She wanted to help. But was hesitant.
Lena's eyes teared up, unshed tears shining in those Emerald eyes.
Jess sucked in a breath and with slight hesitation stepped forwards, warily she stepped in front of her boss, she rose her hands and slowly opened her arms, hesitantly offering a hug. Afraid to step over the thin line of privacy Lena seemed to always retreat behind to avoid people from getting to close.
Lena looked up slowly, noticing Jess standing there, fear and hesitation was noticable, Lena could tell Jess wanted nothing more than to try and help her, but for obvious reasons, Jess was afraid of getting to close or crossing that 'line'. For a brief moment, The Luthor processed the moment, then hesitantly stepped forwards and closed the gap between their bodies, Jess was hesitant of course, but eventually the younger woman wrapped her arms around the Luthor firmly, she held her gently, Lena closed her eyes, she only ever felt physical affections from Kara, hugs were always something they shared.
But now Lena found that she allowed another person to slip passed her defenses, and she wondered if it was all Kara's fault, this...thing of failing to keep people at arms length like she'd been doing all her life.
Lena returned Jess's hug, they stood there for a moment, just basking in each others presence
"People make mistakes, You were both hurt.", Jess said softly.
Lena nodded, her chin was resting on Jess's shoulder, "I...Overreacted. I supported her then, but I acted out this time. She really doesn't want anything to do with me anymore, I-"
"You didn't want anything to do with me", a voice piped up.
Jess and Lena pulled away from each other and they turned to see a certain blonde, clothes ruffled up, hair a mess, her glasses were currently not on her face, her chest heaving as she panted slightly.
Lena eyed the woman up.
Jess pulled away completely from her boss. Unsure of what to do.
Kara stood there, "You even told Hank- You...You had conditions. I was to stay away from you, the DEO even attempted to enforce it against me.", the blonde's voice shook slightly.
Lena saw the hurt in those eyes, she felt her heart ache, she made mistakes, she overreacted, she hurt the super.
"Kara, I just...I...", the ravenette felt her voice begining to crack.
Jess sighed softly, she realized that maybe she should leave, allow for the two women to talk things out. so she did, "I'm going to be taking my leave, Good bye, Ms. Luthor.", the woman said with a weak smile, she then began to leave, she gave Kara a weak smile as well, "Hello and good bye, Kara."
Kara acknowledged the woman and nodded, "Good bye, Jess.", she stepled aside to allow Jess by.
once Jess had left, Lena stood there in front of her door, her heart racing in her chest, Kara was right here, standing in front of her.
Kara looked broken and sad, surely she came to talk, and talk was what Lena wanted to do.
"This was a mistake I should-", before Kara could further lose her nerve and leave once again, Lena stopped her.
"Wait!", Lena said a bit too loud, then she lowered her voice, "Wait, Please, just...come in.", the Luthor spoke softly this time.
Kara released a sigh, she hesitated, slowly stepping towards the Luthor, hesitation in her steps. She averted eye contact for a bit.
Lena's heart began to race, she felt anxiousness building within her, nervousness clawing in her chest.
The blonde chewed on her bottom lip, she walked passed Lena and slipped into the spacious Penthouse. The Luthor stepped in, and shut the door behind her.
the air was silent and filled with apprehension.
Kara wasn't sitting down, she remained standing, nervous raising a hand to the back of her head to place it over her hair, she rubbed the area for a lack of anything else to do at the moment.
the heiress sighed, she wanted to talk, she did, but she wasn't sure how to start a conversation. She merely stood rooted in place, her back against the door, she used it to stable herself.
The blonde merely looked out the large glassed windows that led to the balcony, she hummed, "You got it fixed"
Lena's emerald eyes followed Kara's gaze, she quickly stumbled for words and answered, "Yes, I did.", the woman began to step towards Kara, her back finally coming off of the door, she felt her legs grow slightly wobbly as she drew closer and closer to the kryptonian.
Kara sensed the woman coming closer, she merely turned and met Lena's nervous gaze, she felt nervous herself, she remained put.
Lena reached the spot where Kara was standing, the blonde just stared at her.
for a moment Lena parted her lips to speak, but found words just kept dying on her tongue, they were unable to pass her lips. She wore an apologetic look, her gaze was soft, her eyes were tying to communicate her unexpressed words of sorrow.
Kara seemed to get it, she somehow seemed to understand the CEO's expression and body language.
Kara felt her chest tighten for a moment, she was still hurt, but she wanted Lena's friendship. She needed to accept the woman's silent apology, and give one of her own.
The blonde released a sigh through her nose, and reached out with a hand, slowly she took a hold of one of Lena's own, The CEO's heart rate picked up, Kara could hear the woman's heart thumping hard.
Emerald eyes met with Saphire eyes, both gazing into each others.
Lena and Kara both felt their bodies just draw each other close from there, neither knew who initiated the hug first, but then againe, they didn't care, they were holding each other again, finally, a good month and a half of ignoring each other only brought pain upon them, they needed this, they needed physical contact to heal.
Lena whimpered softly, She felt Kara bend slightly against her, and in one swift movement, Kara picked her up, carrying her bridal style. Lena didn't hesitate to place hand where Kara's heart thumped ever so strongly, she closed her eyes as she kept her head tucked in the side of the blonde's neck.
Kara seemed to release a sigh of contentment, and she was content, she was holding the woman she'd been harboring feelings for, in her arms.
"Shhh, it's okay", Kara said softly as she began to walk them to the couch, she sat down once she made it there, the CEO was in her lap, she herself closed her eyes to bask in the moment.
The Luthor calmed down, but remained in place, she felt comfortable in the blonde's arms, she felt so safe and...protected. Lena craved for the blonde's touch for the entirety of the month and a half they stood away from each other, she yearned for the super's presence, but she tried to ignore it, ignore the emptiness that came with pushing Kara out of her life.
but Lena couldn't handle it, she couldn't handle doing that to Kara, she wondered why, she questioned herself, she questioned why she had issues ignoring Kara, she knew damn well she was capable of doing that to everyone else, but when she tried it with the blonde, she only felt tight at the chest, and an ache in her heart.
Lena knew she had feelings for the woman, but she was afraid.
and she still is.
Kara leaned back a bit, her back was against the couches pilliows, she placed a hand over the woman's thigh, she kept her arm under the Luthor's back to support her, she put her chin on the woman's head.
for a moment silence came about, but it wasn't an uncomfortable silence, rather it was one of thought, one of just being in each others presence.
but Lena felt the need to speak, she snuggled into the woman a bit more, her nose nuzzled a bit into the super's neck. "I missed you, so much.", she spoke weakly, it was just barely above a whisper.
Kara felt a soft smiled coming on, she felt warmth fill her chest, she held the woman just a bit tighter, not enough to hurt her, but enough for it to be secure, "I missed you too, Lena.", the blonde turned her head slightly, and she pressed a gentle kiss against the top of the Luthor's head.
Lena smiled, she felt her cheeks burn just the slightest, she was going to say something more, but paused when she picked up an unfamiliar scent as she finally took in Kara's scent.
the scent of soft vanila lavender filled her senses, she didn't recognize this smell. It was different from what Kara usually smelled like, and that smell was always on the fruity side.
Kara hummed at Lena's stiffening form, using the pad of her thumb she began to caress the woman's thigh, "What's wrong?"
Lena's breath hitched for a moment, she wondered what gave her away, but then she remembered, Kara was a super, she had super senses, maybe it was the beating of her heart that reached Kara's ears, that gave her away.
The CEO bit her bottom lip for a moment, and she answered the question with one of her own.
"Are you wearing perfume?"

Extra Note:
I really am sorry about any mistakes I make, I try to catch them before I post chapters, but it's kinda hard. I mean, I write all the chapters on my phone, yep, on my phone. All of the fics that I've written for the SG fandom so far (which is 3), have been typed up through my phone. I re-read them as much as I can, but unfortunately mistakes still get overlooked. It seems that only after I've posted the chapter, that I managed to catch them and edit them out to the best of my abilites.
Some recommend Betas, but I have no clue how to go about that...sooo yeah XD If you catch mistakes, feel free to let me know. Some have taken to doing that already.
Once again, So sorry.
End Note.
