Alex chooses to wake up slower than she normally would the next morning, or maybe it was just the afternoon from the same day she didn't really know which. And she really didn't want to move just to look at a clock or check the window to see if it was day or night.
She was too comfy.
For the first time in a long while, she didn't care one bit about anything that could possibly be going on, on the other side of the currently gunmetal gray walls around her. What she did care about were the arms wrapped around her middle keeping her warm and protected while her girlfriend placed a teasing line of nibbled kisses along her shoulder her teeth scraping over Alex's skin just hard enough to have her whimpering into the pillow while Maggie lets out the downright sexiest giggle Alex ever heard so early in the whatever time of day it was.
"Sshh. Babe"
The more rational part of Alex's mind knew these little touches weren't meant to be sexual just something sweet while they enjoyed a rare lazy day cuddled up in each other's arms before some catastrophe would drag them out into the world, but seems that memo hadn't made it in time to the heat pooling dangerously low in her stomach.
They were going slow. Relearning one another after the end of their first for lack of a better identifier 'worldwide romance'. She knew that and yet here she was with that same giddy giggly feeling that Kara had once described as 'being hit with a love ray' as she lay cocooned in Maggie's arms letting more heat slip passed her wavering control on her hormones, but in her defense, she just couldn't seem to help it where Maggie Sawyer was concerned.
Especially when on top of what her lips her doing to her throat Maggie's delicately deadly fingers were tracing along the exposed skin of Alex's stomach under their shared bedsheet earning a flushed sleepy grin to Alex's lips.
Hmmm seems Sawyer is walking on the wild side this morning.
Yet for all her teasing Maggie's touch remained respectfully above the waistband of Alex's sleep shorts.
"Having fun Danvers?" Maggie giggles although why her sleepy voice would be coming from somewhere that wasn't directly behind her while she continued to innocently toy with the waking agent was a question for after Alex could think beyond how nice her girlfriend's fingers were against her DEO toned abs.
"You took your time."
The comment puzzled her more than her previous question. 'Took my time with what? And do they have to be so loud? I'm trying to cuddle here.' Alex wonders rolling over in the circle of Maggie's arms keeping her head tucked under her still dozing girlfriend's chin while she snuggles closer. Sure, she loses the less than PG feeling creating touch but at least it brings her and Maggie closer while her grumpy in the morning girlfriend tugs the comforter over there heads.
"What? Not my fault I had to go all Mama Captain."
Alex freezes and so too does the soft caresses against her skin the longer that silky deadly voice keeps speaking.
'Please Rao no." she begged whilst listening to the musical laughter the question caused her newly returned girlfriend.
"You didn't." was a scoffed scoff to something Alex hadn't caught but whatever it was brought a rather accusing "Would you rather we have the rest of the kids over here gaping at them like some sideshow attraction?"
Alex hissed at the anger being directed at her girlfriend. No one talked to her Maggie like that.
"you know she may try and kill you for that?"
"So, what. I've died what like three….almost five-ish times already."
"Really?" Maggie asks impressed
Alex didn't need to see her to know Sara was flashing one of her amused yet smug half-smile as she answers. "What can I say? Nothing can keep this pussy-cat down for long."
"Smooth Lance. Very smooth." Maggie laughs earning an even softer giggle in return.
Some part of her had foolishly thought the sudden appearance of her one-night stand was just a phantom from all the other world alcohol she'd drunk during her ill-advised drinking game with her little sister's literal demigod of a warrior best friend.
Apparently, she hadn't been so lucky.
"What besides the fact that my girlfriend is snuggled up like a sexy koala burrito with someone who isn't me?" Maggie questions answering something that again Alex hadn't caught.
"Yours? Look at mine."
Alex was looking.
It's reassuring in a way when she finds her blushing panicked expression mirrored perfectly back at her when her eyes find dusky gray instead of her returned brown.
Alex had to admit that even with that panicked look the blonde was rather beautiful. A beat later, however, the former DEO director remembered just where those other woman's hands were on her body making her wriggle backward as fast as her sluggish still waking limbs would allow. Amusingly so was the blonde meaning that not only did they fall off the bed in mostly the same comical fashion but the way they were both holding the sheet as they scrambled away meant that the poor strip of light blue cloth ripped apart in its effort to be in both sets of pulling hands at the same time.
"Why is it you're always seeming to be falling out of my bed Danvers?"
Alex felt even more blood heat her cheeks at the question as the real Maggie's arms close around her helping her up.
"Seriously Sara? You have to bring that up now?"
Had she not been hiding her blushing face against her girlfriend's shoulder Alex would have smiled at the annoyance in the other woman's voice.
"What? Oh, come on Ava. The last two times I've been in a bedroom with this woman she's fallen off the bed. Tell me how that isn't funny?" Sara protests pulling the other cute blonde in the room into her lap rather than let her stay sitting on the floor. Much like Maggie had once Alex had successfully untangled herself from her half of the tattered bedsheet.
"How about instead of arguing we get something other than more liquor in them?" Maggie offers "They didn't exactly want to finish breakfast once they got back here."
Well, that explains Alex's returned headache pounding away behind her eyes.
"Beauty and brains. You're the whole pack aren't you Detective." Sara hums
"You're surprised?" Maggie shots back in pretend shock.
"Hey, we're right here." Ava growls a hand against her head when the loud volume seemed to upset her own returned headache.
They possibly would have gone on longer had it not been for the louder than two of the four had expected music currently being carried down the hallways toward them along with the song that music belonged to.
"You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off you,"
"Who brought out the karaoke machine?" Ava laughs her head tilted to one side as she listens apparent haven gotten over the pulse in her head in the span of three seconds. Alex, however, didn't have that luxury as Maggie guided her to her feet then out into the hallways after Sara and Ava.
"Gid turn that down." Sara was ordering at the same time Ava directed a giggled "Gid turn it up." Toward the ceiling while Alex continued to sway against Maggie's side with her hands pressed over her ears to muffle the sounds.
You'd be like Heaven to touch, (Oh, Rao, Mags) I wanna hold you so much..."
Ava had her hand pressed against her mouth to keep from laughing while Alex lowers her hands her unfocused eyes wide as she listens to her own drunken voice blaring at her from overhead.
"Hey, I only had to be sure You didn't sing babe." Sara reminds bumping her hip with Ava's while Alex continued to try and remember which door would lead her to the closest airlock to make her escape the farther down the hall they got toward the source of her humiliation.
"I didn't say anything about someone else having the mic." Maggie was the one to answer Sara's playful wink with a glare of her own.
"Vey funny Lance."
Sara's proud smile only grew. "You're right I'm a freaking genius and this is hilarious." She nodes agreeing with herself. "Besides you were loving it yesterday when it was happening." She reminded while Maggie's chin dips so they wouldn't see her blushing.
Alex could feel Maggie smiling against her hairline as the detective's lips find Alex's ear. "I think its cute babe. I did then and I still think so now." She promised. Alex sighed a little of her humiliated anxiety fading at the feel of Maggie's arms tighten around her waist as she slowed them down a few steps "We'll catch up." Her tiny but intimidating detective promises when Sara gives them a curious eyebrow raise as she and Ava slow as well now a few paces ahead of them.
Maggie bit her lip to keep from giggling when her yet to full wake up girlfriend dropped her eyes in that shy scolded puppy way that never failed to have the detective's heart beating double time.
"Cut it with the cuteness Danvers I'm already more than a little in love with you."
The look didn't waver, but a pleased smile did join it the longer the couple held eye contact as they swayed to music all their own.
"So."
Alex sighed at the more serious tone of the single word. "So." She parroted feeling Maggie's fingers playing with the little baby curls at the base of her neck. "Sara may have filled in a few blanks for me about your little trip to that Earth X place while you and Ava had your little snuggle session."
"What blanks?" Alex was almost too nervous to ask. She had, of course, told Maggie the higher points including sleeping with Sara, the wedding being crashed, meeting the Kara, Winn and Oliver doppelgangers, finally getting to be part of a major cross over battle.
"Apparently, you didn't trust your instincts." The accusing purr in her voice as Maggie spins the dazed former DEO director out of her arms has Alex blushing a deeper shard of red than her sister's cape.
"You think so huh?" The detective lets out a pleased hum when she's tugged back until she's pressed as close along her girlfriend's front as their clothes would allow the same time her back hits the cool metal of the wall behind them.
Humm trapped between a wall and her Danvers. Not a bad way to spend her afternoon.
"Cause right now all my instincts really want me to kiss you. Even with morning breath."
Maggie rolled her eyes pulling Alex closer as her eyes dart between her lips and her mouth. "You better Danvers."
Maybe it was the fact that letting this go would lead to another first for them after all it wasn't every day, she was offered a chance to join the ranks of the infinite time mile high club. Maybe it was just having the warm weight of the woman she loved pressing her back against the wall as their mouths connect this time in a rougher kiss than the last. Maybe she was just making up for all those kisses (all ten of them because yes, she'd counted) Alex had shared with Ava the night before.
Maybe it was because a little part of her wanted Ava and Sara to come looking for them and instead find them making out like teenagers against the wall so both women would know Alex was hers.
"Sorry to interrupt."
The pair groan into the other's mouth pulling away with mirrored annoyed expressions as the IA chuckles overhead. Only to find when they turn toward the rest of the hallway that instead the IA voice as coming from a hologram image of what they both guessed to be a humanized version of the all-seeing computer currently more or less leaning against the wall opposite the couple. "The Captain wanted me to tell you that your presence is requested on the bridge."
"Wow."
"Um, would it be….."
"Nope but get in line babe." Alex growls her eyes flickering between the hologram and her fresh blood girlfriend as her tongue flicked out again to wet her kiss swollen lips.
Gideon smiled as she takes in both their aroused expressions pushing off the wall with a low sigh. "Yes, well as amusing as that three-way may be Agent Danvers, I doubt your sister would….."
Alex's eyes widened cutting off the rest of Gideon's comment with a squeaked. "Kara's here?"
Maggie groans hanging her head with a guilty sigh. "We called her like two hours ago why is she…."
"Ahh because Supergirl was needed at a warehouse fire while Miss Kane was assisting the police with a robbery in the more financial district of Earth-Prime."
"Miss Kane?"
"Wait Kate is here too?"
Alex feels a flash of jealousy creeping up her neck at the curious and strangely overly familiar note in Maggie's voice as she asks. They both lived in Gotham both before and after the multiverse was destroyed and rewritten so of course, they'd know of one another.
The more human Gideon nodes "She was worried for you." she explains with a shrug not saying if she was talking more about Kara or Kate as she looks between the still entwined couple. "So, I pulled up a few choice clips from my security system to put them at ease of your health and safety while they waited for you and Agent Pants Suite to wake up."
"You really didn't need to." Alex moaned while Maggie smiles interlocking their hands as they follow the IA down the hall.
"I know but it was cute." Gideon hums with a grin ant Alex's glare.
