Because I really like doing these, and the community seems to like that I'm adding to the Danvers Sisters archives, I decided to make a compilation of one-shots! I'm still taking requests if you'd like to send them in, but do keep in mind that I have only watched Season one and YouTube clips of the other seasons at this point. Thanks for reading :)

Stories I'm already working on:

Sick Alex

Kara gets shot with a kyptonite bullet

Kara can't save everyone

xxx

When Kara blows out her powers, Alex offers to stay with her until her powers come back. But when Alex is needed at the DEO and Supergirl is down for the count, Alex has to leave on her own. After being gone for far too long, she comes back beaten and bruised. Now Kara wants to take care of her for a change.

Alex pulled Kara into her apartment by her wrist, Kara not even attempting to resist. "Kara, would it kill you NOT to solar flare in every major battle?"

Kara grinned at her older sister. "Oh, you're so welcome for saving the city again."

Alex sighed heavily. "And I'm proud of you. Really, I am. I just... I don't want to see you get hurt..."

Kara looked down at the floor for a few seconds, then back into her sister's eyes. "Hey, do you know what I want right now?"

Alex raised an eyebrow. "Pizza? Potstickers? Both?"

Kara shook her head. "No. Well, yes, but not right now. What I really want, is a hug from my favorite sister in the universe."

Alex's laughed a little. "Kara, I'm your only sister."

"All the more reason for you to be my favorite," Kara fondly replied, hugging her sister without waiting for a response.

Alex pressed a quick kiss to Kara's temple and hugged her back. "I'm glad you're safe."

"Can't get rid of me that easy," Kara whispered as she hugged her a little tighter. The only real advantage in Kara's book for temporarily losing her powers was not having to hold back when she hugged her sister.

Alex buried her nose into Kara's hair and took a deep breath. "I love you."

Kara grinned. "I know." She stepped back from her. "I love you too. More than anything."

Alex smiled a little, but it faded when her phone started to ring. She took her phone out of her pocket and put it to her ear. "Danvers."

Kara didn't need enhanced hearing to know it was the DEO.

"But-" Alex shut her mouth when the person on the other end interrupted her. "Yes, Sir." She then ended the call and slipped her phone into her back pocket. "That... was the DEO. They need me in the field."

"What hap-"

"No, you can't be Supergirl right now. Right now, you are Kara Danvers, and I need you here, where you're safe. I'm sorry, but I have to go." Alex was firm with her words, but her expression remained soft.

Kara nodded once. "Okay... Be careful."

"I will. And I'll be back before you know it." Alex reached down to squeeze Kara's hand, then walked out the door.

Alex was not back before Kara knew it. As a matter of fact, Kara though Alex would have been back two hours ago.

Kara was starting to get scared for her sister's safety when Alex walked in the front door. Well, limped through the front door.

"Alex!"

Alex smiled weakly. "Hey, Kara. Sorry I'm late."

"What... Alex, what happened?" Kara asked, stepping forward to hold Alex's face in her hands.

Alex flinched away. "Oh, you know, the usual. I'm okay."

"Don't. Lie. To. Me," Kara persisted through clenched teeth.

Alex stared at her for a moment, then dropped her usual posture. "Okay... Look, I'm fine, everything's fine, we got the bad guy, we won. I just got a little banged up in the process."

"A little?" Kara questioned, gesturing to Alex in general. "Are you sure?"

Alex bowed her head a little. "Hey... I thought I was the big sister."

"Uh, I'm actually older than you. It's not my fault my pod got knocked off course," Kara argued, but then realized that Alex was just trying to distract her. "You know what? It doesn't matter. Sit down, Alex."

"Kara-"

"No, Alex!" Kara yelled. "You are not okay! Now stop lying and just sit on the couch for gosh sake!"

Even one who was currently powerless, Alex knew not to test an alien. Alex took a seat on the couch and looked up at Kara. "There. Now what?"

Kara sat next to her. "Now, tell me the truth. Where does it hurt?"

"... Tell you what, I'll let you help me, but only after I take a shower and change my clothes."

Kara opened her mouth but was cut off by her independent older sister

"I am very capable of taking a shower without falling over, thank you very much."

Kara nodded once. "Okay. You go do that. Don't take too long."

Alex smiled a crooked smile. "Okay, Mom."

When Alex came back into the living room, her hair was still wet and she was wearing a tank top and sweatpants. "Alright, Kar, what are you-"

Kara jumped out from seemingly nowhere and gave her a tight hug.

"Ow! Hey, what was that for?!" Alex complained as she jerked out of Kara's grip.

"Aha, I knew you were hiding something! And..." Kara trailed off as she looked at her now sleeveless older sister. "Your arms... Geez, did they made you crawl under barbed wire or something?"

"Um... no?"

Kara huffed and bowed her head. "If only my powers didn't drain... I could've protected you..."

"Hey, no, don't blame yourself. I've been doing this for a long time, I can take it," Alex reminded her, lifting her chin back up.

Kara shook her head a little, remembering how Alex had kept her real job a secret for a long time. "Just... let me take care of you? You have taken care of me so many times, and I'd like to return the favor."

Alex crossed her arms and smiled fondly. "Alright then, Kara Danvers, do what you must. Even though I must tell you, I've already been checked out at the DEO and they gave me the go-ahead to go back home."

Kara playfully got into her superhero pose. "But you haven't gotten an evaluation from Supergirl!"

Alex laughed and poked Kara's forehead. "You're telling me that Kara Danvers knows Supergirl? How soon can she get here?"

"Allllexxx, come on!"

Alex scrunched her nose and patted her on the shoulder. "I'm just teasing. Now, what do you want me to do, doc'?"

Kara lightly pushed her away. "Just go sit down and I'll get you some ice."

"Ice?"

Kara pointed to the couch. "Sit. And yes, for your black eye."

Alex sat down and crossed her arms. "I don't get black eyes, Zor-El."

Kara shook her head and went to get ice anyway. "Then you seriously need to work on you're make-up skills."

"Hey!"

When Kara came back she sat next to her older sister, completely ignoring her earlier outburst. "Close your left eye." Alex did as she was told, but before Kara pressed the ice to it she gently traced under Alex's bottom eyelid.

Alex allowed herself to flinch now that she was safe with Kara and not with the rest of the fearless DEO agents. "Okay, fine, you got me... I got hit, but just to let you know I hit him back harder."

Kara shook her head disapprovingly, but still leaned in and pressed a gentle kiss to her closed eyelid. "I'm sure you did."

Alex smiled a little when Kara pressed the cool icepack to her eye, dulling the pain she had been ignoring since she first got hit. "Thank you. But you really don't have to do this."

"You've helped me ever since I got to Earth. It's only fair that I finally return the favor."

Alex shook her head and laughed a little. "No, I meant that you didn't need to hold the ice-pack for me. I got it, Kar."

Kara allowed Alex to take the ice from her, blushing. "Oh... Right, sorry."

Alex laughed, tossed the ice on the table, and pulled her adoptive sister into an embrace, both of them falling against the arm of the couch.

"Ah! Alex! But you're hurt!" Kara complained as she tried to squirm away, but Alex wouldn't let her go.

"No talking, just hugging," Alex whispered, tightening her grip around her waist.

"But-"

"Ugh, you talk too much," Alex complained. "The most you could do to help me right now is to hug me back. Come on, Kara, please?"

Kara gave in and let the tension in her shoulders go. "Fine. Gosh, you're so needy."

"Now you know how I felt when we were younger."

"Hey!"

Alex nuzzled Kara and grinned. "Love you."
