Kara was asleep when a worried Alex shook her awake.
"Ugh what?" Kara whined as she pulled a pillow over her head.
"Where have you been?" Alex asked as she pulled the pillow away as she tossed it aside.
"I got in late and didn't want to wake you," Kara answered as she turned over.
"Yeah I got that part but that doesn't really answer my question.
"I went for a walk and ran into Lena," Kara started.
"Who's Lena?" Alex asked cutting her off.
"The woman I saw at the bar," Kara said as she got a dreamy look in her eyes.
"Oh so she's single now?" Alex asked her voice conceding.
"Don't start, nothing happened she almost fell overboard, I saved her," Kara said proudly.
"Almost fell? Or intentional?" Alex asked.
"Shut up," Kara snapped as she got up and began to change into skinny jeans, and a tank top.
"Where are you going?"
"To find her," Kara answered as she grabbed her sketch book and bolted.
Kara walked around the ship aimlessly but found no sign of the other woman, she was about to give up when she spotted her alone near the pool reading a book. She smiled as she walked over.
Lena looked up when she heard footsteps fearing it may be James or her mother she beamed when she saw Kara. "Kara hi."
"Hi," Kara said shyly.
"Join me," Lena asked as she set her book down.
"Okay," Kara said as she set her sketch book down and sat beside the black haired woman.
"So what brings you to the rich side?" Lena asked a hint of a teasing undertone as she smirked at the blonde.
"Was just walking," Kara told her as she felt those green eyes studying her.
"Right of course," Lena said as a waiter walked over to ask Kara if she would like a drink.
"Oh um no thanks," she told him as she fumbled with her glasses.
Lena found it utterly adorable as she smiled, "we are both good thanks," Lena said as she waved him off.
"So is that you're sketch book?" Lena asked as she noticed the book sitting next to the blonde.
"Yeah," Kara answered as she grabbed it.
"Mind if I have a look?" Lena asked as she eyed it curiously.
Kara grew nervous, what if she didn't like them?"
"Kara?" Lena asked gently when she saw how nervous the other woman had become.
"Sorry yeah okay," Kara said as she handed her it.
Lena smiled as she thumbed through it, there were drawings of all kinds of things, from mountain sides, to waterfalls and lakes, to people some naked, she gasped when she saw the last picture.
"What is it?" Kara asked as she leaned over to see the picture of Lena she had done from the first night she saw her. Kara blushed bright red as she began to babble. "I'm really sorry, I know it's probably creepy but I just thought you are really beautiful and I wanted to draw you."
Lena set her hand on Kara's thigh, "It's beautiful, thank you."
"You're not mad?" Kara asked as she looked up to meet green eyes watching her.
"No I'm flattered," Lena told her a hint of a blush graced her cheeks.
Kara beamed, "really?"
Lena nodded, "my insecurities could eat me alive, and its nice knowing someone thinks of me."
Kara blushed, she did think about her all the time.
"Did I say something wrong?" Lena asked as she smiled at Kara.
"Not at all," Kara responded as she smiled.
"So what made you want to draw?" Lena asked curious as she lay back down but made sure she was still facing the blonde.
"My mother was an artist," Kara told her. "I used to watch her when I was little."
"Was?" Lena asked with a frown.
"She died when I was nine, I was adopted," Kara said as she tried not to cry as she remembered that day.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to bring up a painful memory," Lena said as she reached over and took Kara's hand.
It felt warm and comforting and Kara longed to interlace their fingers together as she locked eyes with Lena who was smiling at her, "its okay it was a long time ago."
Both women continued to hold hands as they smiled at each other completely oblivious to upcoming company.
"Lena what is going on?" Lillian asked as she and Rhea approached.
"Mother you remember Kara?" Lena asked as she pulled her hand away much too both their disappointments.
"Of course, the artist," Lilian snarled.
"She's an artist?" Rhea asked interested.
"Yes her art is in my room Aunt Rhea," Lena told her excitedly.
"It's lovely dear," Rhea told her as she smiled at Kara who returned it briefly.
"Well if we are done yakking dinner will be up shortly," Lillian spoke up as she ignored Kara.
"Right of course, I will see you there," Lena smiled at Kara who instantly returned it.
"Bye Lena," Kara said as she smiled at her.
"Bye Kara," Lena said as she walked off with her mother.
"So what are you planning on wearing tonight honey?" Rhea asked once her sister and niece were out of earshot.
"I hadn't really thought about it," Kara said shyly as she looked down.
"I might have something, come with me," Rhea said as she ushered Kara along.
"I was right you and my daughter are the same size," Rhea beamed as Kara turned to look at the back of the flowing gold dress, Rhea had did her hair for her so it was curled and flowing pass her shoulders. She also did her makeup and took her glasses away.
"This all too much, "Kara told her as she faced the older woman.
"Nonsense, you look beautiful and my niece will think so too," Rhea told her knowingly.
Kara blushed as she looked down, "thank you."
"You're welcome now let's go."
Rhea smiled as Kara nervously looked around for Lena, she frowned when she spotted James and Lillian in deep discussion descending the stairs. They both ignored the blonde as they walked right pass her.
Kara frowned as she watched them go, it quickly turned into a smile when she looked back towards the stairs and saw Lena smiling at her as she walked down.
"You look amazing," Lena said as she placed her hands on Kara's biceps.
Kara blushed, "so do you. Green is your color."
Lena also blushed as she took Kara's hand and led her inside the dining hall.
Kara took it all in as she saw all the rich people of the ship talking amongst each other.
"You will be great," Lena whispered as she interlaced their fingers as she led them over to James.
James turned towards her and smiled as he noticed her.
"James you remember Kara Danvers?" Lena asked as she let go of her hand and placed it on her lower back causing the woman to shiver.
"Umm?" James asked confused.
"The woman who saved me," Lena reminded him a little annoyed.
"Right the artist," James said a smirk on his lips. "Didn't recognize her in lady attire."
"James," Lena scolded.
"No it's okay," Kara assured her as the band started to play and everyone found a seat.
Kara was next to Lena who kept shooting her glances to make sure she was okay.
"So how is life below deck?" Lillian asked Kara with an evil smirk as she took a delicate bite of her fish.
Lena frowned as she placed a hand on Kara's knee under the table, "It's lovely hardly any bugs," Kara answered causing laughter amongst the table.
"This woman saved my fiancé," James told everyone as he accepted more wine.
"She's a hero," the captain spoke up causing Kara to blush.
Lena kept her hand on Kara's knee the remainder of dinner.
"Well I'm off to play poker," James said as he and the rest of the men stood up. "Want me to escort you back to the cabin?"
"No thanks I will stay here," Lena told him.
James leaned down and kissed her cheek as he and the men took off.
Kara used the distraction to scribble out a quick note, which she set in Lena's hand as she stood up, "I should be going as well. Thank you for the invite," she said as she smiled at Lena before walking off.
Lena looked down at the note which read; meet me at the pool on ten minutes. Lena quickly folded the note as she waited before faking a yawn and saying her goodnights.
Kara smiled as she heard approaching footsteps, "care to go to a real party?" she asked with a smirk.
