Chapter 1
Present day…
"Kara, now isn't really a good time. I'm trying to get EJ in the bath. Alex is better at this than me. By the way, where is my wife? She was supposed to be home an hour ago." Lena Luthor held her cell phone between her ear and shoulder as she turned on the water of the bathtub.
"Listen Lena, there was an incident today. Alex was in an accident."
"What happened?" Ever since Lena and Alex had been dating there had been more than a fair share of 'accidents' concerning The DEO director.
"Alex went to do some recon at a warehouse and a small bomb went off. She hit her head. She's in the med bay here. She hasn't woken up yet." Kara had explained. Lena could tell by Kara's voice that she was worried.
"Okay we're on our way" Lena turned off the water in the bathtub.
"Do you want me to fly over and get you?" Kara asked.
"No, I'll drive. Stay with Alex please?" As excited as EJ would have been to fly with her Supergirl aunt, Lena wanted Kara to stay with her sister.
"I won't leave her side."
Lena ended the call. She was brought out of her thoughts by a small tug at the bottom of her skirt. "We're going to see mommy?" She looked down to see her four-year-old girl smile excitedly about the prospect of going to the DEO.
Lena put on a smile. "Yes, sweetheart we're going to go and see mommy" Lena ran her hand over poorly French braided hair. Alex had done it hastily during breakfast before she had to run off to work.
Lena grabbed her purse and left the apartment.

Six years ago…
"I still cannot believe you poked me with a stick."
Alex laughed, taking a swig of her beer. "You deserved it."
"Ha. Ha." Lena mocked, taking a sip of her wine. She had happened upon her best friends' sister at her hotel bar sitting in a corner booth ripping apart the label on her beer bottle. She had ordered herself a white wine and went to sit with her. "You never did tell me agent. What brings you to my hotel?"
"I came here once with Sam. I guess she had been visiting you?"
"I see now." Lena smirked.
"No, no! It was never like that." Alex quickly back tracked and looked away. Lena thought Alex was cute when she was flustered. "Sam wasn't gay." She looked to Lena, "was she?"
"Ha! I knew there was something there. But I don't know if Sam was gay or not; we never really talked about stuff like that."
"Honestly I think I miss Ruby more. I loved that kid. I love kids and I cant wait to have them."
"So you never wanted kids with that cop who arrested me?" Lena swirled the wine around in her glass before taking another large sip.
"I'm not drunk enough to talk about this with you."
"Then by all means Agent, lets order another drink."
Alex was confused. She could have sworn that Lena Luthor was hitting on her?
After a couple more beer and a few more glasses of wine accompanied with small banter, Alex finally answered Lena's earlier question. "Maggie didn't want kids."
"And that was a deal breaker for you." Lena concluded.
"At first no. But the thought of never having kids kept eating away at me and we finally had to break it off." Alex explained sadly.
"I'm sorry." Lena said genuinely.
"Thank you. It's taken some time, but I'm slowly moving on. What about you?"
"what about me?"
"No plans for kids?"
"Oh god no. I'd be a horrible mother."
"I hope you're not saying that because your mother is an evil bitch?"
Lena smiled.

Present day…
Lena smiled at the reflection of her daughter in the rearview mirror of the car talking to herself excitedly about the DEO. Her smile faded as she remembered why they were going there in the first place.
Lena flashed her DEO ID to the security guard as she drove into the parking lot. She could see Alex's motorcycle parked in its usual spot. Brainy and Nia were there waiting for her in the parking lot. The two had gotten married last year and EJ was their flower girl. Nia now worked at the DEO after she had gotten her 'narcolepsy' under control.
"Uncle Brainy! Auntie Nia!" EJ cried happily. "Mama let me out!" She squirmed in her car seat.
"You don't have to tell me twice." Lena hurried out of the car and helped EJ out of her car seat. The little girl ran excitedly towards Brainy and he scooped her up. "Uncle Brainy turn blue!"
While Brainy kept EJ entertained Nia walked over to Lena and gave her a hug. "There's been no change she hasn't woken up yet." She whispered.
Lena nodded, "E, why don't you go with Brainy and I will go and see if Mommy is still working okay?" She hated lying to her daughter, but she didn't want to worry her.
"Okay Mama." Lena knew she'd say it was fine. Uncle Brainy was her favorite uncle after all.
Lena made her way through the DEO to the med bay, unfortunately knowing the route far too well. Kara must have been able to hear her high heels on the floor because as soon as she neared the med bay Kara, still in her Supergirl suit came running towards her. "Lena! I'm so sorry I wasn't there. It was just supposed to be a simple recon. I was there as soon as I heard and I flew her back here and-"
Lena placed her hand on Kara's arm, "where's my wife?" Lena asked calmly.
"Sorry. She's in here." Kara led Lena into the med bay.
