So this is my first ever fan fiction! I hope it's not too bad!
"Close your eyes," Kara instructs, hands behind her back. "And hold out your hands."
Mon-El raises an eyebrow before complying. He cups his hands expectantly, a bemused look playing across his face. Kara places two small paper tickets into them.
"Aaaand, OPEN!" she exclaims, a beaming smile erupting across her features.
Mon-El peers at the pieces of paper in his hands, examining them closely. "National City Fun Land," he reads aloud. He looks at Kara, unsure of what to make of the brightly coloured paper and its contents.
Kara smiles. "We are going for a day of thrills, fun and ice-cream."
He still looks perplexed. "What is a Fun Land?"
"They didn't have those on Daxam?"
Mon-El's blank expression confirms to Kara that theme parks mustn't have existed on her boyfriend's home planet until he says, 'We did have places of pleasure on Daxa-"
"Totally not the same thing. Gross," Kara states, her brows furrowing slightly. "But you're going to love it. Alex and Maggie are coming too. They're going to be here in half an hour to pick us up, so go and get ready!" Kara plants a quick kiss on Mon-El's lips and ushers him towards the wardrobe before making her way to the kitchen to eat some more breakfast pizza.

Mon-El reappears just as Kara hears Alex and Maggie coming up the stairs to her floor. "They're here!" She flings the door open before Alex has a chance to knock.
"Wow, someone's excited," says Alex, smiling at Kara and then at Maggie.
"I am! I know we've gone literally every year since I got here but Mon-El has never been,' Kara replies, turning to look at Mon-El, who was finishing tying his laces. 'Plus Monstrosity is a right of passage. You haven't lived until you've tried it."
"That's true," Maggie says as Alex nods her head in agreement. She peers around Kara at Mon-El. "You'll love it."
Mon-El smiles back. "Well, I'm ready for my day of fun."
They filter out of Kara's sunlit apartment and make their way to Maggie's car. Alex hops in the front next to her girlfriend as Kara sits behind Maggie with Mon-El to her right. Alex flicks the radio on and they sing along to Barenaked Ladies all the way to the park. That is, until they see the kryptonite-green outline of Monstrosity forming as they approach. Its tracks stretch high towards the clouds, prompting Mon-El to gasp, 'what's that?"
"That," Kara replies, "is the greatest rollercoaster ever created. And I intend to go on it at least three times before we leave." She adjusts her glasses as she peers at the peak of the coaster, remembering the first time she came to the Fun Land with Alex and Eliza. Alex had dared Kara to ride Monstrosity with her. Kara wasn't afraid, and to her, it was the closest she could get to flying without getting into trouble for using her powers.
All four of them disembark from Maggie's unmarked police vehicle before making their way to the entrance where they're given a wristband that's more brightly coloured than the tickets.
"Okay, Little Danvers, where to first?" asks Maggie as they walk through the grand entrance.
"The ice-cream parlour," replies Kara excitedly. Alex laughs, unsurprised that her sister's first thought was of food.
Three scoops of ice cream each later, Kara leads the group back towards the park's famous attractions and game stalls. When she glances behind her, she notices that Mon-El has stopped. She observes him looking carefully at a game which entails trying to throw balls into big plastic tubs, before pulling a few bills out of his wallet to have a go. He weighs up the three balls that the man places on the counter as Kara makes her way back over to him.
The first ball bounces straight back out of the bin and onto the floor with the second one following suit. The third just about remains in the bucket, and the operator hands Mon-El a miniature cuddly teddy as a reward for his victory.
"For you, my sweet," he says, passing the teddy to Kara and bowing before handing more money to the man behind the counter. Kara gives Mon-El a peck on the cheek. Three more tries and three mini teddies later, Mon-El hands more money over to the man, unwilling to give up.
"Last try, Mon-El, otherwise we'll be here all day," Kara says, adjusting her glasses. She peers around, looking for Alex and Maggie. They're stood in front of a shooting game. Kara walks over to them, deciding that she's seen enough of Mon-El's terrible throwing for one day.
