A/N: Alright, so right now I'm very happy with the way this sounds. I'm still writing with a broken finger, which sucks by the way, but I'm still trying to do what I love, which is writing. This has been a very crazy week, but...life goes on. I won't bore you anymore. Enjoy.

I did it. I asked Kara Danvers out on a date. I always kinda had a thing for her sister, Alex, but it was made clear to me that nothing was going to happen there. But, during that time of heartache and break, I developed feelings for who I hoped was the right Danvers sister. I guess I was going to find out.
I looked at the schedule. Luckily, Lord Tech. didn't have any upcoming meetings or special whole week, was clearer than day, which was impressive. I'm a very busy man. I wanted to do something for her, though. I mean, she did agree to go out with me. Then again, Kara Danvers was a special person.
I had picked up a bouquet of white roses up for her, and I wrote a card, expressing my thoughts on when we could have a date. She agreed to go on a 'coffee' date with me, but that would not be the case. I sent someone to leave the bouquet on her desk, and hopefully, she would go for it.

When I went into work today, I expected a lot of paperwork on my desk. Definitely not a bouquet of the most beautiful roses I had ever seen in my life. I admired their immensely pleasing smell, before picking up the card that went with it.
Kara, I though about when and where we should have the date. Meet me on the roof of my building at 6:30 tonight. I have something extra nice planned out for you.
Love always,
Max.
This man was really something else. I was really nervous about how I was going to look. Which is why, I asked for Kelly's help. Kelly worked a few desks away from me at Catco. and she was one of the closest things, I had to a female friend. Not all my friends were guys.
She came over after work, and helped me pick out the most beautiful outfit I'd ever seen on me. She curled my hair, and let it hang down, and I kept my glasses on, because I didn't need Maxwell Lord finding out his date is Supergirl. I looked at myself in the mirror, absolutely stunned! I wore a black dress that hugged my features nicely, and high black heels. Kelly did a nice job.
Finally, I was ready to go on my date. With Maxwell Lord.

I had never been so nervous in my entire life! I was fidgeting so much, I thought my hands were gonna fall off. This was just like any other date, I told myself, except it's with a ravishing, delectable, intelligent, beautiful individual...oh I was so dead.
I wore just about what I wear everyday. Suit. Burgundy button up. Shoes. Dress pants. I was still so nervous. I looked down at the back of my hand, and counted the stress veins, popping out everywhere. I was definitely not going to last this date, but it's nothing about Kara, it's all me. Speaking of Kara, I wonder if she's nervous. Probably not. That woman is tough. It must run in the family.

Walking up to the terrace at Lord. Tech, was definitely a sight for strong eyes. He had strung lights, and in the middle of everything, was a table for two. With the other person standing at the edge of the terrace, looking at the sunset. I walked over to meet him, and I stood by him. He looked amazed at the sunset, his beautiful topaz eyes focusing on everything, that look of contentment on his face. Wait-was I...was I checking him out?
"Hey." I said, and he smiled, looking my way.
"Sorry," he started, opening his arm for me to take, "I always get wrapped up in the sunsets. It's a beautiful thing." He said, as he led me over to the table
"And speaking of beautiful, you look divine." He said, making me blush.
"I didn't know you found beauty in such things." I replied, shyly.
"Please," He scoffed, "I'm not a complete narcissist. I do find beauty in extraordinary things." he said.
"If you continue down that road, I'll become redder than a watermelon, by the end of this date." I said, chuckling. He smirked.
"Shame. I would have no one to talk to." I laughed at his attempt for a joke, and shortly after, there was food brought out to us,

She really did look beautiful. I had never really seen anything like her. I met her gaze, and she smiled.
"Man, I'm having a great time. Everything is beautiful." she said, taking a drink from her glass. I spiked an appetizer, and stuck it in my mouth, relishing the tasty treat. She looked over at me, with those kind, smiling eyes.
"What?" I asked, in a laugh-like voice.
"You. I've never seen this side of you." She said.
"Well, you bring out the best in me." I admitted shortly.
I don't know what came over me, but I leaned in, and brushed my lips against hers. She was hesitant, but then she kissed me back. She actually kissed me back! This date was definitely better than any of the other ones I had ever been on.
A/N: Okay, that's done now. Don't hate me for the cliffhanger.
