As Kara sat in front of the fire, she rubbed her hands together, "Ahh." Kara breathed with a smile. She stoked the fire before turning to Lena.

Lena was sat reading Radio Times, "The TV over here is funny...BBC One looks appealing though." She then placed the magazine down on the table.

"So we spend tonight in?" Kara smiled.

Her smile lit a flame within Lena. The Luthor took a breath and leaned forward, "I have some ideas for what we could do with the rest of our day, but we don't even have a Christmas dinner."

Kara adored Lena completely, "Well, I got us a place at a pub that is just down the road from here."

Lena's eyebrows raised, could this woman be any more amazing? She thought, "How did you-"

"It turns out, the whole world knows about Supergirl, and as soon as I said to the bar tender that I know Supergirl and could get her to visit sometime...Let's just say, we got a discount and a place at a table."

"And he believed you, like that?" Lena asked, frowning.

Kara nodded, and changed the subject, "What did you have planned today?"

"Well..." Lena shrugged, "I thought, that you and I could go for a walk in the village, if you want-"

"Are you kidding?! I would love to!" Kara beamed, "After all." She shrugged, "Christmas is about spending it with the ones you love and family."

Lena chuckled, "Which one do I fall under?"

Kara only smiled further, "Both."

"Well, miss Danvers." Lena smiled, "I love you too."

Kara then blushed, moving her hand to pinch her glasses.

Lena rolled her eyes and joined her in front of the fire place.

Kara's heart pounded in her chest as Lena got onto the floor beside her.

"No one has ever done so much for me, and this is the first Christmas that I have...Had to celebrate with." Lena said softly as Kara stared at the Christmas tree, trying to avoid the green eyes.

The tree was black, decorated by blue lights, white and red tinsel, baulbles, crackers and Candy canes.

It was beautiful, with the presents sat beneath it.

"Lena." Kara began, "You deserve the world and more, and..." She began, taking Lena's hands in her own, "We have had rough times this year, "With the Daxamite invaision, and losing Mon-El, especially."

Lena then looked at the floor, "How are you with that?"

"I'm better. Lena..." She began, "You are my world, you mean everything to me and without you...I think I would still be wallowing in self pity and blaming-" Kara stopped herself, and took a breath, "I blamed myself for things that I couldn't have prevented...Supergirl did all she could and...That came to no prevail." Kara's blue eyes had softened and Lena was so warm and happy in this moment.

Lena reached forward carefully and removed Kara's glasses. Kara suddenly felt nervous as her and the other woman locked eyes with each other.

"Supergirl." Lena began with a small smile. Kara's heart was now pounding. The softness of her voice made Kara relax, gripping Lena's warm hand tighter.

"You did all you could to save the planet...You helped me save the world and you lost someone who was dear to you..." Lena's voice lowered, "I get it if you blame me."

"What?!" Kara gasped in disbelief, "We did what we could and yes, there were sacrafices, but...I'm over that now and you are important to me."

"So you are Supergirl?" Lena asked, her expression unchanging.

Kara stuttered, "I...I..."

Lena smiled, "Thank you...For everything...for being my friend...My confident and my..."

Kara frowned, "Your what?"

"Does it need saying?" Lena asked, before leaning forward and cupping Kara's cheek.

Kara leaned forward and kissed Lena in return.

The fire crackled behind them as they kissed more and more compassionatly. Lena found her fingers to the buttons of Kara's pyjama top and began undoing them, while Kara removed the knot in Lena's robe and slid it down her shoulders.

The Luthor smiled as she felt the heat of the fire on her naked skin. This was amazing.

Kara pulled her top over her head as enough buttons were undone and she smiled back at Lena sheepishly.

"What time is dinner?" Lena asked, out of the blue.

Kara chuckled against her shoulder, "Half Three."

"Good, I don't want to miss the Queen's speech." Lena smiled, before meeting Kara's lips again.

"When will we start doing your other plans?" Kara asked, breathlessly as Lena kissed her neck.

"After we are done here, now shut up." She said with a laugh. Kara did as she was told and let Lena take over.

Then Kara thought.

Where did I put the mistletoe?
