Disclaimer - I don't own Supergirl or any of the characters (Unfortunately)
Cats P.O.V
Kara's sister seems nice enough although I can't help but feel like she was either twisting Kara's arm or she was sat on the poor girl.
Hmm. Maybe that's why she was screaming.
When she kissed me earlier today I couldn't believe I kissed back I mean yes I liked her for a while, a lot longer than I care to admit but she's my assistant who may I add is half my age.
The media would have a field day with something like this and I don't well actually no I just can't get that sweet innocent girl involved in all this.
I could have killed her when she ran off though.
How did she move so fast anyway? She was like a blur.
*Bell Rings*
I look at the clock. She's three minutes late.
Walking away from the cooker I head through the living room and towards the door. I make sure my hair and clothes look good and finally open the door to be met by the beautiful 23-year-old.
"Uhh hi Ms. Grant" she says awkwardly and bites her lower lip.
"Why are you late Kara I thought I told your sister to have you hear by half past" Kara winces and I realize that may have come out a little more venomous than I had intended.
Kara shuffles on her feet and avoids eye contact with me "I-I mean we got caught in traffic and…"
I put my hand up to stop her from speaking "I'm sorry Kara I shouldn't have spoken to you like that please come in make yourself at home" I can't believe I just apologized.
At least she's smiling now.
She steps in so I close the door and Kara follows me into the kitchen.
"You look amazing Kara" Kara blushes and I can feel myself smiling at her reaction.
Turning around I get two plates of food and set them down on the table.
"Thank you Ms. Grant"
"Call me Cat while your hear. Now come on sit down" I tell her and gesture towards the chair beside me.
"You really didn't have to do this Ms…Cat"
I'll wait till after were finished to tell her "I wasn't going to starve you was I Kara" she's not talking as much as she usually does I wonder if I scare her. "Once were done eating I'd like us to have a chat if that's okay"
I notice Kara gulps and uses the fork to play with her spaghetti.
This was going to be a long night.
20 minutes later -
I've seen that girl eat a whole box of donuts in less than seven minutes and yet it's taken her nearly half an hour to eat barely a quarter of her food.
And now she's playing with it again.
I've had enough "Kiera fork down I've grown tired of watching you play with your food" she immediately drops it and looks up at me.
"I'm sor…"
I interrupt her "No no none of that I think it's time for that chat lets go into the room" I don't even know what I'm going to say to her anymore.
A few moments pass and I can't stand the silence any longer if she's not going to start then I am.
"Kara" I say and pull her hand into my own. She looks down at our now intertwined hands and begins to go red.
I'm Cat Grant queen of all Media I can do anything I set my mind too and this is no exception. I've let my feelings for her eat me up for way too long and now I can finally admit them to her.
Stop talking to yourself Cat just tell her "Kara listen I'm not going to fire you so don't worry about that" she visibly relaxes and let out a shaky breath I don't think she knew she was holding in "I don't know exactly how to say this because I don't know how you really feel about me"
Kara opens her mouth and begins to speak softly "Ms Grant before you go any further listen, I've had feelings for you before I even worked for you I know it was wrong to kiss you but I couldn't help it" wow I didn't know she had it in her.
"I well I've had feelings for you for a while now too Kara but the thing is I'm twice your age with two kids, one whom is the same age as you and I don't feel like it would work I mean what if someone found out" it feels so good to get that out in the open.
Oh god she's got that kicked puppy expression on her face was I really that horrible?
"Cat do you really care if people find out because I certainly wouldn't, if they have nothing better to do with their life's than that's their problem not ours" She leans in and places a small kiss on my lips "dammit Cat I love you and from what I can tell you love me too so please give us a chance"
I sigh "Kara I love you too but I'm not ready I mean we have only just confessed our feelings for each other don't you think we'd be moving a bit too fast if we got together now"
"I guess" she replies and refuses to look at me.
I place my fingers on her chin and turn her head towards me "I'm not saying were never going to happen I just feel like we need time to get to know each other properly do you understand ?"
"Of course I do Cat and for that reason and that reason alone I am never going to stop trying to get you, because deep down I know if I try hard enough you will be mine"
"I'm counting on it"
