CHAPTER 1

I am shameless.

For the bar scene, I was thinking of their background music as "Do I Wanna Know" by Arctic Monkeys.

And during a... particularly steamy scene at someone's apartment, I was listening to "Keep Me High" by Adaline.

Please see end of chapter for notes.

Kara can't believe it. She feels furious and she can't believe a mere human would reject her. Her, Kara Danvers, Supergirl. He might be somewhat famous but who was Jimmy, to reject her?

"Oh well, his loss,"Kara shrugs. Raising her chin and straightening her posture, she thinks to herself, "I can get anybody in here that I want anyway."

Just as the thought passes her mind, she spots a beautiful, dark-haired woman sitting alone at the bar. Smirking, Kara saunters over to the bar and she settles right next to the woman who captured her attention.

Kara doesn't say anything, she simply signals the bartender for a drink, and she just confidently sends glances at the woman beside her. Seemingly catching her attention after a few obvious looks, the dark-haired woman finally turns to her and Kara felt her breath hitch – all thoughts of Jimmy Olsen fading from her mind.

The woman looking her straight in the eyes right now was exquisite.Her pale skin, toned body, angular jaw line, luscious dark lips, and sharp emerald eyes – everything about her screamed beauty, elegance, and just a slight edge of danger.

Plastering a smirk on her face, Kara fully turns on her seat as well as she meets the woman's gaze head on.

With a raised eyebrow, it was the woman's turn to give Kara a complete once-over. Once done, the woman met her gaze again, but this time, she had a smirk on her face too.

Extending a hand, the woman says, "The name's Lena."

Accepting the proffered hand, Kara slightly leans in as she replies in a low husky voice, "Kara."

Kara immediately noticed emerald eyes darkening, and with her super-hearing, she also heard the woman's, no, Lena's,sharp intake of breath as well.

After letting their handshake linger for a couple more seconds, Kara finally withdrew her hand. Tilting her head to the side with a raised eyebrow, she says in a seductive voice, "Want to get out of here?"

Lena breaks their gaze as she turns back to the bar, but Kara wasn't disappointed at all.

She saw Lena simply call the bartender over, settled their bill quickly, and standing up, she tugged Kara's hand and lead them to the dance floor.

A sultry beat was playing, and Kara's initial confusion immediately turned to arousal as Lena stopped, turned to face her, and beckoned her with a single finger to get closer.

Immediately complying, Kara stepped close to Lena, her hands immediately circling the shorter woman's waist and tugging her close.

In return, Lena places her hands around Kara's neck and she plays with the hair on her nape.

They don't talk. They simply exchange heated glances and small, seductive smiles. They move to the beat – hands roaming, bodies impossibly close; with breathy sighs and barely bitten back moans.

Kara isn't sure how much time passes, but she couldn't help it. She had to tasteher. She wanted to erase that smug grin and mess-up that dark lipstick.

So she kisses her. And by Rao, it was nothing like she has ever experienced before.

Without missing a beat, Lena kisses her back. Wandering hands that were on Kara's ass, were now back at her nape, tugging her closer and deepening their kiss. Lena tilts her head slightly and opens her lips just a fraction, but Kara wastes no time as she darts her tongue inside Lena's mouth.

Now with tongues tangling; Lena's hands tightening on Kara's neck, while Kara's hands are firmly planted at Lena's hips; their body movements has ceased and they got lost in their passionate kiss.

After what seemed like forever, but was in fact, just a minute or two of an intense make out session, Lena pulls back from their kiss.

Chest heaving and lipstick slightly smudged, Lena looks up at her and in a breathless voice, finally says "Now, we can get out of here."

Ignoring the lecherous looks around them, Kara lets herself be dragged by Lena outside the club.

Once outside, they stand at the curb for a couple minutes, waiting for Lena's driver to come around. Their hands are still interlocked and they continue exchanging heated glances at each other.

Finally, Lena's driver arrives and once they're inside the car, it takes all of Kara's remaining self-control to stop herself from jumping Lena's bones. She can feel the heat and tension radiating off of the other woman as well; however, as Lena says, "I don't live far from here," Kara can feel herself let out a breath.

"Rao, did she have to live so far up this building?" Kara thinks to herself as she leans back on the elevator wall, looking Lena up and down without shame.

As if reading her thoughts, Lena turns to her and suddenly kisses her hard. Kara immediately settles her hands on Lena's ass; however, the other woman apparently had other ideas.

Immediately taking Kara's hands, Lena pins both of it to the wall instead, slowly guiding them up and keeping it locked there.

Just as Kara was about to break Lena's hold on her and change their positions, she heard the ding of the elevator, and Lena immediately stopped kissing her. Walking out of the elevator, Lena throws her a look over her shoulder that clearly says, "Follow me if you dare."

Composing herself, Kara immediately steps out of the elevator and follows Lena inside her apartment without hesitation.

Without bothering to turn on the lights, Lena locks the door and immediately pushes Kara into the nearest wall.

However, Kara was determined to gain control this time, so just as her back hit the wall, she immediately switched their positions – this time, it was Lena pinned against a hard surface and her body.

Lena released a surprised yelp with her sudden movement; however, it turned into a moan as Kara buried her face in Lena's neck.

Kara lightly bit the part where Lena's neck and shoulders meet and soothed it with a quick lick.

However, seeing as she wanted to taste Lena even further, she let her tongue out again – this time, she licked all the way up from Lena's neck up to her ear – where she ended up sucking the woman's earlobe as well.

Lena let out a guttural moan, and from there, everything became a blur of harshly removed clothes; kissing all over the apartment; stumbling over some furniture; until they finally landed, completely naked, on the dark-haired woman's impressively soft bed.

Breaking their deep kiss, Kara straddles Lena's hips and looks down at her. They still didn't bother with any lights; however, the moon was full tonight and it illuminated Lena's room.

She truly looked ethereal in this light. Like a sinfully sexy sorceress casting a spell on this entire night.

Looking down, Kara enjoyed seeing Lena's dark hair all spread out on her bed – its darkness contrasting the white bed sheet. Her pale skin looked even silkier bathed in this moonlight and Kara let her hands wander.

Using her index finger, Kara lightly traced a path down Lena's body – from her luscious lips; down the column of her neck; to the valley between her breasts; down to her sculpted stomach – where Kara lingered for a bit and dipped a finger into Lena's navel.

Apparently, that was the last straw as Lena surges up and kisses Kara deeply.

From there, everything became a blur of tangled limbs; breathless curses; gasped out names; writhing bodies; and numerous orgasms.

Lena awoke to an empty and cold bed.

And while she almost thought that everything from last night was just a dream, her sore body screamed otherwise.

Smiling to herself, Lena got up and started getting ready to head back to Metropolis – her head full of a certain blue-eyed, blonde woman who made her scream and writhe well into the early hours of dawn.

Her visit to National City was more… insightful than she initially expected.

It took awhile before Kara was able to fully repair all the damage that she has caused when she was affected by Red Kryptonite.

It was hard, gaining back the trust of National City's residents. Lucky for her, she had a supportive and forgiving family. And while it wasn't completely easy to mend things with James, Alex, Winn, and Cat as well, Kara's glad that they eventually found it in them to forgive her harsh actions and words – both as Kara Danvers and Supergirl.

Now, Kara's back to spending her days as Cat Grant's assistant; protecting her city; having game nights with her friends; and bonding with her sister.

And while it pained her to think back on her Red K infected day, Kara couldn't stop herself from thinking back on one particular event. Or rather, she couldn't stop thinking about a particular someone.

Lena.

That's all she knew of her. No last name, no number, no nothing.

A one night stand.

Only, it felt more than a one night stand.

She had only been here for a week, and Lena was just starting to settle in, in National City.

However, she's clearly about to have a bad start to her day as she walked into her building and saw the familiar face of Metropolis' very own golden boy reporter, Clark Kent; accompanied by one other person who seems to be a reporter as well.

Grimacing, she meets the eyes of Kent and tilted her head – a signal to follow her.

Just as they were getting into her office, Lena finally says, "There's a perfectly reasonable explanation for why I wasn't aboard the Venture yesterday."

To which Kent responds, "Well, that's why we're here."

Walking across the room, Lena hangs her coat while carrying on with the conversation, "There was an emergency regarding the planning for a ceremony I'm holding tomorrow. I'm renaming my family's company, and I had to cancel."

"Ah, lucky," was Kent's sarcastic response.

Chuckling, Lena turns around as she says, "Lucky is Superman is saving the day."

Laughing a little with humor coating his voice, Kent regards her saying, "Not something one would expect a Luthor to say."

"And Supergirl was there too," asserts the woman, who, up until this point Lena ignored.

Until she finally got a good look at her.

And while her hair might be in a ponytail; and while she might look pureand innocent in a white dress and peach colored cardigan – Lena knew better.

She can vividly remember how those fingers and tongue felt inside her; can remember bite marks and scratches that this woman has left on her skin.

It was her.

To compose herself, Lena started moving again and in an attempt to hide her sudden nerves, she chuckles and asks ironically, "And who are you exactly?"

As she crossed to the other side of her office, she made sure to keep her back turned on the blonde woman, and distracted herself by pouring herself a glass of cold water.

"More like I'd need to pour this on myself,"Lena thought darkly.

Hearing her voice again, even if she didn't sound like the confident woman that Lena remembers, didn't help cool off her libido in the slightest.

Stuttering, the woman behind her replies," Um…. um, I'm Kara Danvers. I'm not with the Daily Planet, I'm with CatCo Magazine… sort of."

A little more composed now, Lena plasters a confident smirk on her face, turns around again, and looks Kara straight in the eyes as she says with a voice full of humor, "That's a publication not known for its hard-hitting journalism." She walks towards her desk and settles down, as she continues, "More like, high-waisted jeans: yes or no?"

"Um, well I'm just tagging along today…" Kara tells her with a shrug.

Dismissively, Lena raises a hand as she says, "Right, can we just speed this interview along? Just ask me, what you want to ask Mr. Kent."

"Right, because the faster we finish this, the faster I get to talk to Kara. Alone."Lena thinks to herself.

After which, she proceeded to answer all of Kent's questions and as a show of good faith, even gave him a flash drive containing all the information about her subsidiary company responsible for some parts in the Venture.

All throughout the meeting, Kara couldn't take her eyes off of her.

Lena.

Her no-number-no-last-name one night stand.

Except, Kara now knows her last name.

Luthor.

Luthor.

"Oh Rao, of all the people I could have slept with, I ended up sleeping with a Luthor! Not that her last name matters but Alex and J'onn are going to kill me!" Kara thinks to herself; however, upon watching the back and forth between Kal-El and Lena, she added another name to her list of potential murderers.

Kal-El. Clark Kent. Superman.

Her cousin who was almost killed by a Luthor.

Trying her best to keep her emotions out of her face, Kara didn't even notice that the conversation between Kal and Lena was over.

Hearing her cousin calling her name, Kara snaps out of it, and just as she was about to step out with him, she heard herself being called once again.

"Kara, right?" she hears a hesitant and mildly amused voice behind her, "Would you mind staying back? I just have a couple of questions about… fashion trends."

Kal turns to look at her and making up her mind, she signals her cousin that she'll be okay.

Nodding at her, Kal leaves and closes the door as he goes.

Leaving Kara and Lena finally alone.

Taking a deep breath, Kara finally turns around and meets the intense gaze of Lena Luthor.

This wasn't the look she saw earlier. Then again, Kal was in the room with them and apparently, Lena Luthor has a good poker face.

"Huh, maybe she'd make a great partner for game night! Wait, why am I thinking of bringing her to game night?"Kara thinks to herself; however, her internal ramble was broken by the sound of melodic laughter.

Blushing, Kara focuses once more on Lena and with a shy smile she says, "Fashion trends… really?"

Kara can clearly see amusement, and something else, coloring Lena's expression, as she starts "Well…" unconsciously, Kara felt herself gulp as she noticed Lena moving closer to her, "you do work in CatCo Magazine." Lena finishes, only this time, they were standing so close to each other, Kara didn't need her super-hearing to catch the other woman's slightly uneven breathing.

Reaching up to fix her glasses, Kara stands her ground as she tries to calm her erratic heartbeat, "Well, which… look are you interested in? I mean, well, you're the CEO of a multi-billion company so I'm sure you have a lot of corporate outfits. But are you looking for maybe a new refreshing addition to your wardrobe? I mean, not even to your corporate wardrobe but to your day-to-day clothing? Except, if you are always at work, then your day-to-day clothes would compose of corporate outfits!"

Kara would have rambled on and on except, her brain kind of short-circuited when Lena placed a hand on her bicep. Squeezing her arm, Lena tells her, "Well… I did like the lookthat I had one night a month ago."

Blushing to the tips of her ears, Kara shuffled nervously in place, having an idea of which night, Lena was referring to, "Um… ok… uh, what look was that exactly?"

Feeling her breath hitch as Lena leaned in, Kara couldn't suppress a shiver as the other woman hotly whispered in her ear, "Without a stitch of clothing on, and with you draped all over me."

Initially a one-shot, I added a second chapter to this story.
