As she walked through the campus on Monday morning, she pulled her coat around herself, trying to keep the biting cold away. It was already twenty-past eight. She got up really early just to make sure she got to her class soon. It was her first day as a lecturer at Lincoln University, National City.

Considering this was a city, it was very quiet for a Monday morning.

Eventually she made it to the Jane Austen building, where her first lecture of the day was taking part. She thought the name of the building was odd, considering she taught science and technical science. Once she made it into the building, the air conditioner blew down warm air on her. That was welcomed.

As she made her way over to the small cafeteria, she saw a blonde woman in glasses with a smile on her face as she was waiting for what she had ordered. The blonde must have been making conversation with the woman behind the counter.

The blonde was wearing far more less than her, a white T-Shirt with an art print on it, accompanied by a red cardigan and blue jeans. What struck her was the way that the blonde spotted her instantly.

"Hey!" The blonde smiled at the raven-haired woman, "You look very cold. It's late October, it's to be expected. Are you new here? I haven't seen you before around here."

"I-Yes, I am." The woman replied, a little bewildered, "And yes, it's mighty cold for this time of the year. I'm Lena by the way."

"Kara Danvers." The blonde smiled, holding out a hand for her to shake.

Lena gratefully shook her hand with a smile, "Are you always this happy in a morning?"

"Well." Kara shrugged, "It's best to be happy than sad, I also think that if I'm happy that the students will feel warmth and it'll encourage them to do work. We all know how all of them hate Monday mornings so I'm like a light of positivity." She smiled, before pausing, "Would you like a coffee? You look like you need something to warm you up. I'll pay, it's not a problem."

"Oh-Thank you." Lena smiled, "So what do you teach?" She asked after she made the order.

"I teach journalism here, and I work at Catco. What about you? What's your specialised subject?" Kara asked politely.

"Oh, I teach technical sciences. I own L-Corp."

Kara's eyes widened dramatically, "No way! You're Lena Luthor."

"The one and only." Lena chuckled, "I must say, to say you have just found out my name, you don't seem at all horrified."

Kara picked up their coffees and passed Lena hers.

"Thank you." Lena said softly, following Kara to a table.

As they sat down, Kara leaned forward, "What your brother did was his fault. I don't see why you should be judged for something that you didn't do. And from what I have seen over the past two years, L-Corp is a force for good. I think it's great that you are trying to move away from that past and bring the business forward into a brighter light."

"Thank you." Lena smiled, looking down at her Styrofoam cup of coffee, "So, you know an awful lot about L-Corp, why would that be?"

"Well." Kara laughed nervously, "While I have an interest in literary, I also am very interested in science. And what you do for the aliens of this city is amazing."

"Why am I teaching in the Jane Austen building?" Lena asked quickly.

"Oh, um, they do that sometimes. They just randomly choose where people teach. I work upstairs in my office in JA3004. The third floor."

"Hang on, so you work here as a lecturer and at Catco? How do you juggle the two?" Lena asked her.

"Right back at you. Are you a guest lecturer?"

Lena nodded, "I have an office here though but it's in another building and I don't understand why they gave me an office if I'm only going to be here every three weeks."

Kara frowned, "Me too. So, where is your office?"

"Ah, mine is just past the Argo building…Why is it called that?" Lena asked with a frown.

"I got the chance to rename it one day and I…Chose that name." Kara said, fidgeting with her glasses, "It's a part of where I called home many years ago."

"And where are you from?" Lena asked, "I mean, if you don't mind telling me."

"It's uh…A very small town…Um outside Midvale."

Lena nodded slowly, "Oh, is it nice there?"

Kara smiled sheepishly, "Yeah, it was very nice…It was a beautiful place. It's not there anymore now…They destroyed it and turned it into flat land."

"I'm sorry to hear that." Lena said softly.

"It's no one's fault, well, other than the stupid council." Kara laughed sheepishly. She then looked at her watch, "We have ten more minutes. So, what made you come here?"

"I wanted to teach young people about L-Corp and what L-Corp is really about. It's great, just to teach people that not all aliens are bad. They just want a home just like the rest of us, you know?"

Kara nodded slowly, "I do."

"How long have you worked here Kara?"

"Two years and it has been the best two years ever." She smiled as she saw one of her students walk in.

"Morning Kara." The young girl smiled at her, "I looked at the reading for the seminar later and it's incredible."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it." Kara smiled, "How are you today Nia?"

"Tired." She laughed, "But I did have a great night last night."

"Reading or drinking?" Kara asked her with a smile.

"Reading, obviously." Nia laughed, "And maybe a little drinking."

"I'll see you in class, okay Nia?" Kara smiled.

"See you Kara." She said before leaving.

"Wow." Lena said to Kara, seeming amazed, "You really do have a good relationship with you students."

"As long as they do their work and they enjoy it, what can I say?" Kara chuckled, "Well, I hope to see you at some point today." She said as she got up.

"Upstairs, right? JA3004?" Lena asked as she stood.

"Yep." Kara smiled, "I'll be there at lunch if you want to drop by."

"I'd love to." Lena smiled, "Catch you later Kara."

"You too Lena." Kara beamed before leaving.
