Kara awoke at 6:45 as always only today she was exhausted, she'd had a massive day yesterday with Supergirl duties. Last night alone she'd, saved 112 people from a burning building, and stopped 3 aliens from terrifying the city. She was confused as to why she was so tired, normally she only needed an hour or two of sleep a night. She eventually decided to just get over it and get on with her day. She went to stand up but got a bit dizzy. She sat down confused before trying more slowly, this time she was fine. She ignored her bodies warning and quickly got ready for work.

Standing in front of the bathroom mirror she looked over her body, disgusted by what she saw. She stepped onto her scales and they read 57kg. She had only lost 1kg. She couldn't believe it, she was so angry at herself, she thought she was going so well. She hadnt eaten for 2 days and with all the flying she was doing she thought for sure she'd have lost more.

She looked at the fridge before she left, she knew she should eat something with how much she did yesterday but she couldn't bring herself to do it not with her weight still to high. So she grabbed her bag and slammed the door behind her before walking to work.

On the way to work she got that dizzy feeling again, she stopped and leaned against a wall and waited for the feeling to pass before continuing on into work. She finally reached her desk at Catco and she felt weird. She didn't feel sick per say but she didn't feel well either she just felt weird. Her skin was clammy, her heart was beating in her chest, her head was floaty. Kara really has no idea what was going on with her. She was pulled out of her thoughts and when she heard the elevator ding announcing Cats arrival.

"Here's your coffee m-miss Grant." She said hoping Cat wouldn't pick up on her slight stutter. Cat took the coffee and motioned for her to follow. Once they were in the privacy of Cats office she turned to Kara and asked: "Kara? Are you okay?" Cat noticed that Kara was paler than usual, and she wasn't her confident bubbly self.

"I-I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

"Kara, are you sure? You don't seem like yourself? I know you had a big day yesterday but it still normally wouldn't affect you this much," Cat was worried for her girl friend, she'd never seen her like this before.

"Cat I'm fine honestly, I'm just a little tired. Nothing to worry about." Kara replied anxious that Cat wouldn't drop the subject.

"Okay, then Kara. And since you're fine, come to mine for dinner tonight, We can have your favourite pizza and potstickers." Kara grimaced at the thought of eating food she couldn't eat that calorie filled muck! But she also couldn't let Cat find out what she'd been doing so she decided to say yes. She'd come up with an excuse as to why she hasn't eaten later she decided.

She asked Cat if that was all she needed and then turned and exited Cats office.

'Stupid! Stupid, stupid Kara! You can't even speak properly! How are you meant to hide if you can't even lie?' The thoughts were circling her mind. She couldn't ignore them, they just made her mood even worse. She sat down at her desk and finished editing the article one of the junior reporters gave to her.——————————————————————————————

A few hours later she was still on the same report and Cat was really starting to get worried about her young girl friend. She had never seen Kara this down, this unfocused and that worried her. She knew something was going on with her and she knew she wasn't going to stop until she figured it out. Then she had the thought of messaging Alex, no one is closer to Kara.

C- Hi Alex, it's Cat. Kara's been acting strange all day, she seems to be pale, and she's definitely unfocused and she seems almost depressed. Did something happen? Did I miss something? Please Alex if you know anything please get back to me, I'm worried about her.

A- Hi Cat. I haven't actually seen her outside of work for a while, she keeps cancelling our plans and saying she wants to spend time with you. So if there is something wrong she hasn't told me about it. Let me know if you figure it out.

C- We have only spent 1 night together in the past week and a half... she's hiding something.

A- I agree, let me know if you figure what. Also I don't like the sound of her being pale, does she have her powers?

C- I think so, she hasn't said she doesn't and she did get me lunch from all the way across town in under five minutes.

A- hmm, okay. Just keep an eye on her. Talk to you later Cat.

Cat put her phone away and called Kara into her office. "Kara!"

As Kara went to stand up to report to her boss and girlfriend, she got that now familiar dizzy feeling and leant heavily on the desk for a minute, before continuing to Cats office. "Yes miss Grant?" She started.

"Kara? Are you okay? You really don't look good. Have you lost your powers?" Cats worry was only increasing. The girl looked like she was going to pass out. Kara just stared at her for while not really knowing how to answer.

"I'm, I'm fine." She said very unconvincingly.

"Kara come sit please." Cat patted the piece of couch next to her.

Kara nodded and took the spot next to Cat. Cat gently picked up Kara's hands, and placed them in her lap. The first thing she noticed was how cold they were but Kara always ran warm... something definitely wasn't right. "Kara, please talk to me. Tell me what's going on? I can tell when you're sad, I can tell when you're sick, and right now you look like you're going to collapse. Please talk to me, I'm worried about you." Cat was using a voice she normally only ever used for Carter but Kara her supposedly indestructible girlfriend looked sick and that scared her more than anything, she couldn't lose Kara too.

"I... I'm fine honestly, you don't need to worry. I've just been doing to much lately between here and the DEO and my other duties, I haven't been having much sleep and I think it's all starting to catch up with me." Good Kara thought, that was actually believable. Cat stared intently at the young hero, trying see any hint of deception but surprisingly she found none. She just couldn't shake the feeling that Kara wasn't telling the whole truth and that something was wrong.

"Okay then Kara, if you're sure. You will still come to mine for dinner because I miss you and we both still need to eat and you can sleep at mine so I can make sure you actually get some sleep. Sound good?" Kara wasn't used to hearing Cat talk to her like this, she wasn't used to being talked to like she actually had worth and like she wasn't a total fuck up. It took everything in her to hold back the tears at the fact that someone actually cared for her.

"It sounds like a plan Cat, thanks." She replied and pulled her in for a hug. To say Cat was surprised would be an understatement but she returned the hug nonetheless.

The eventually broke the hug and Kara made her exit, thoughts circling like vultures once more.

'You can't eat, if you eat you'll be fat.'

'If you eat tonight, you'll make the last few week pointless, you'll prove to your coworkers you are the fat pig they think you are.'

'You eat and Cat will have to hire a crane to get you out of the house, you be slower as Supergirl and people will die, you will kill people because you're to fat to fly.'

The thoughts became to much for her and instead of returning to her desk she headed for the bathroom.

CAT'S POINT OF VIEW

Kara eventually broke of the hug and made her exit. I watched as she made her way out. I couldn't help it as my eyes wandered below her waist. She had almost made it to her desk when she stopped and it looked like she was in some sort of debate with herself. She looked overwhelmed. Then as quickly as it started it ended and she walked to the bathroom. I knew then that Kara was not okay, I have never seen her like this. This isn't Kara and I am going to do everything in my power to help her with what ever is going on.

THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW-

Kara and Cat left Catco and we headed to Cats penthouse for dinner. Kara's thoughts were trying to kill her once again; 'you can't eat'

'How could you think she loves you? No one could love someone as fat as you! No one deserves to die more than you, you can't even think of excuse to get out of eating, you think people care but they don't. You're selfish and you're the worst kind of person, you're an alien.'

Kara had been so absorbed in her own thoughts she didn't realise she was now standing in Cats apartment with tears streaming down her face. She was finally pulled out of her mind when Cat pulled her in for a hug. "Kara? Are you okay?" Cat asked worriedly but gently. Kara did the last thing she expected she pushed Cat away and backed up into the corner before sliding down the wall, sitting with her knees pulled to chest hyperventilating. Cat slowly approached not wanting startle her more. "Kara..." cat tried but got no response, "Kara I need you to calm down and take some deep breaths okay?" Cat was now kneeling next to Kara rubbing circles on her back. "Come on darling, you need to breathe deeply and slower for me okay? In... and out... follow my breaths you can do it, I love you."

KARA'S POV-

I can't breathe, I can't breathe. I don't know what's happening, I've never felt this bad before. I can here someone speaking to me in the distance but it sounds drowned out, I can't make out the words. I still can't breathe. My heart is beating so fast it feels like it's going to beat out of my chest. Then I hear three words. Three words that snap me back to reality... "I love you."

THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW-

Kara's head snapped up "Cat?" She asked shakily and still out breath, "what did you say?" She asked not believe what she heard. Cat looked at her curiously before saying "I love you?" Kara just looked at her blankly once again stuck inside her own mind. 'She's lying no one can love you, who could love an alien from another planet, a dead planet. You couldn't even die right, you couldn't even arrive on earth at the right time, your entire life is one big fuck up. Of course no one love you.'

"No! Don't say that! Please stop!" Kara half yelled tears once again flowing down her cheeks. Cat knew this wasn't Kara talking, she placed her hands on either shoulder and squeezed gently trying to calm the young girl. "Kara listen to me, I love you. Whatever you're going through right now remember that I love you, I will always love you. Come back to me Kara, I need you. I love you baby." Kara once again looked at Cat blankly almost focused almost out of mind then cat added "I love you Supergirl." And it was like a switch went off. Kara leaned forward and collapsed in Cats arms. "I'm so sorry Cat, I'm sorry..." she managed to get out between sobs. The elder woman just rubbed soothing circles on her back and held her close, quietly speaking positive statements to her. "I'm sorry Cat, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry, I can um... I can go..." Kara went to move but cat held her closer. "Kar, there's no need to be sorry, these things happen. I want you to stay, you're sleeping here tonight. And when you're ready we will talk about this but right now I think you need some sleep. I love you." Cat placed a kiss on her head before gently guiding Kara to her feet than to the master bedroom where she tucked Kara into bed before joining her.

"Cat?" Kara asked sleepily, "are we going to break up now?" She was scared to hear the answer but she also needed to know.

"Why on Earth would I break up with the worlds best girlfriend?" Cat was confused she couldn't possibly see a reason as to why she would break up with Kara.

"I just thought after what happened tonight, that..." she trailed off not wanting to give Cat the reason to break up with her.

"Yes Kara? What did you think?"

"I thought you wouldn't love me anymore." A single tear slid down her cheek and she ducked her head to avoid Cats eyes.

"Kara? Look at me." Cat gently took her chin and lifted so she was looking at her. "I love you, and nothing, I mean nothing will change that."

"You'll leave, maybe not today but everyone leaves me, I'm the worlds biggest fuck up." Kara started crying more and cat pulled her in closer, Kara's head now resting on her chest.

"Kara, you are not a fuck up! You are the strongest, most good willed, most beautiful person I have ever known." The CEO was trying her best comfort Kara and she was now extremely concerned about her current state of mind. Kara was definitely not her usual bubbly self.

Sleep was slowly claiming Kara and she closed her eyes and fell asleep, still half atop of her girl friend.

Cat stayed awake for quite a while longer deep in thought on how she was going to help the most important person in her life.
