Supergirl: Midvale High
Chapter 11 football game
I didn't particularly like mornings though I didn't used to. After waking up one morning to find the world ending would do that to you. Even to this day I still remember the sky falling on Daxam and the nightmares won't let me forget. I groaned as I rolled over and slapped the top of my alarm clock. By the gods I wish that I could sleep in just a bit longer, sadly I couldn't.
"Mon El!" I heard the yell from downstairs. "You're going to be late if you don't get up now!"
I knew that voice well after all the times she'd woken me up in the mornings. Martha Kent, my adoptive mother and widow of the late Jonathan Kent. She was without a doubt the most intimidating human I had ever met that could make one mean omelet.
What she lacked in powers she more than made up for in experience, especially in regards to super powered teenagers. She'd gone through pretty much the same thing with Clark, Kai-El, and knew what she was doing by taking me in after I crashed on this planet.
"I'll be down in a minute!" I called back as I pushed myself up into a sitting position.
One good thing about living on this planet was the fact that it had a yellow sun. Because of that my body gained powers, one of which used to quickly get changed for school, my super-speed.
I rush out of the door and downstairs. I made sure to grab my school bag on the way out. Once downstairs I'm greeted to the sight of Martha in the kitchen making ham sandwiches.
"Here you go," Martha said as she handed him a small bag of sandwiches.
"Thank you," I said as i took the bag and started eating one of the sandwiches.
Another thing I enjoy about this world besides the superpowers was the food. I had many feasts on Daxam and even hosted a few myself however there was something to be said when you tasted a ham sandwich and thought it was better than all of that.
The sudden ignition of an engine caught our attention and we looked up. Through the window we saw the main road in the distance passed the fields and a lone yellow bus was pulling away. I turned to Martha who just laughed and smiled.
"I think i will drive to school," I laughed
"You do that, drive safe" Martha smiled
I made my way to the barn where my truck was parked. I opened the driver's door throwing my school bag in before getting in. I quickly put in the key turning them to start the engine I pulled away driving out onto the main road heading the direction of school. I arrive soon after the school bus has pulled up outside the school I wait by my car until I see Kara get off.
"Fancy meeting you here," Kara grinned. "Did you have a nice drive?"
"Yeah it was a hoot," I smirked back kissing her.
"So what made you miss the bus?" Kara asked me.
"I slept in a bit longer then I should have," I answered honestly.
"How did you manage that with Martha there?" Kara laughed in disbelief. She knew all about Martha and her wake up calls. Clark had told her the horror stories of his own teenage years under her roof.
"I don't know," I answered with a shrug.
The morning past quickly I met Kara outside of her last class as I had done all week. People have finely stopped whispering and staring as we walked thought the corridors. We head toward the cafeteria.
"So Kara are you coming to your boyfriends last football game tonight?" one of the football team asked.
"I don't know am I?" Kara asked me.
"Of course if you want to come I mean I want you there," I said.
"Then I will be there," Kara smiled at me kissing me get the wolf whistles from the team.
The rest of the school day was soon over I made my way to the football field, I changed and made my way on to the field. Kara caught my eye as soon as walked out she sat on the front row with Winn. I made my way over.
"Hey Kara," I waved as I approached.
"Hey," she waved back. "You look a bit nervous."
"Nothing like that," I responded "I want us to win today but at the same time I have to keep myself from going to far and doing better than a human can do."
That was something Clark told me once whenever he mentioned his own years in High School and playing for a football team. I had to limit myself to strictly human levels of speed and strength not just to protect his identity but also because if he went too far then he could have seriously hurt someone. Humans were fragile things after all and with my super strength and speed I could easily run through the entire opposing team.
"We good luck," Kara told me.
'Thanks Kara," I smiled back before heading off towards the changing rooms..
This was our last play and time was almost up. We could make it, I know it, my teammates knew it. Looking over at the others and saw our quarterback motioning for everyone to come over. We huddled together and he looked between us all.
"Alright this is it," he said. "This is everything we've been training for."
"What's our play?" I asked the question.
"You're running," he replied. "One shot, that's all we've got so let's make it count."
"I can do this," I said clearly. "We're going to win this."
"Let's go," the quarterback nodded.
We broke apart and moved into our respective positions. Seconds passed and the match resumed. I took off running, my legs carrying me across the ground at just barely the speed of a regular human. I evaded a couple of tackles from the opposing team and looked back just in time to see our quarterback throw the ball towards me. I caught it with both hands and kept running.
I reached it...
"Touchdown!" the announcer's voice sounded through the stadium.
I looked up as the crowd cheered and saw the rest of my teammates running towards me. They lifted me off the ground and carried me towards the changing rooms, cheering all the way. None of that mattered to me though, all that mattered was the wide smile on Kara's face when I saw her among the crowd.
I loved that smile of hers...
I got changed my plan was to get showered at home all i wanted was to go see Kara I left the changing rooms. She stood about ten feet away by a tree she was looking down at her phone so didn't see me coming.
"Hey you," I spoke making her jump and look up.
"Oh hey," Kara smiled at me standing away from the tree. "Congratulations captain."
"Thank you am glad you were there to see me," I smiled I could help but smile I had just won my last match and I had the girl of my dreams.
"Of course I would here to support you," she smiled another amazing smile.
I could help but lean in placing a passionate kiss on her. The kiss was getting deeper and deeper. I ended up moving Kara back so she was against the tree. We stood there in own little world for what felt like hours. It was more like minutes the kiss was soon interrupted but the shouts of the rest of the football team.
"Get a room you two," I heard mark shout coming from not that far from us breaking the kiss. "Is that your reward."
"You're just jealous I have a girl to get reward from," I smirked making Kara laugh.
"That may be true," Mark smirked walking away with the rest of the team "See you both tomorrow for graduation don't do anything I wouldn't do."
"That not much," I shouted after him. "Come on then miss your chauffeur awaits I will drop you off at yours then go home I stink."
We walked back to my car, we get into the car. The drive from school back to the Danvers was short I drove us back in a comfortable silence. Finally after about ten minutes she finally spoke, breaking the silence in the car.
"You were good," Kara told me. "I don't know much about football but I saw how you won and what you did. You controlled your powers enough to play against them without hurting them and were still able to pull off a win."
"Well yeah, I mean that was one of the first things that Clark taught me when I first started trying out for the team," I explained. "It's tough trying not to hurt people when I have these powers."
One slip up and someone might be hurt or worse. The amount of effort it took me too physically limit my strength and speed was ridiculous. It was like trying to hold back a river using a wooden stick, the stick had a tendency to be carried down the river instead of stopping it. I was better at it now but it still took all of my concentration to do it and it was still very taxing to do so.
"I was never that into sports or stuff like that," Kara admitted. "I was always more interested in finding out what Clark was up to and that Lex Luther."
"Those two huh?" I mused. "Have you thought about maybe trying to be a reporter like Clark? I can definitely see you as a reporter..."
"...Maybe," she sighed. "But I wouldn't want to work at the Daily Planet even if I did, at least not with Clark and Lois there. I would want to be my own person, not just his cousin, especially since I still remember changing his diapers back on Krypton."
"Kara Zoe-El, changer of Superman's diapers," I laughed at the image of it in my head. "I bet that would make the front page."
It wasn't long before we were both laughing and carrying on. It had to come to an end sometime however and that was proven true when I turned a corner and pulled up in front of the Danver's house. She opened the door and climbed out.
"Congratulations on winning the game," Kara smiled as she closed the door. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow," I waved before driving away.
I soon arrived back at the farm I went to drive my truck into the barn but was stopped by a car already in front of the barn I didn't recognize the car I got, grabbing my school bag. I opened the door I was about to shout to Martha that I was home but I was meet with Clark and Lois.
"Hey Mon El long time no see," Clark smiled at me giving me a brotherly hug.
"Hey Clark I didn't realize you were coming for a visit," I said sitting down at the table were Clark, Lois and marcher sat.
"Yeah I thought I would pay Kara a surprise visit since you graduates tomorrow," Clark said.
Kara
I was sat on the seats outside when all of a sudden the door flew open and Alex came out. She sat down on the seat beside me she had funny look on her face smiling at me.
"Care to explain this," she said before turning her phone around and showing me a picture of me and Mon El kissing against the tree after the game
"There is not much to explain," I blushed making Alex carry on.
"You two seem to be getting a bit heated by the looks of it," Alex laughed my face going more red.
"I don't know what your talking about it was just a victory kiss," I tried to say but Alex was laughing more at how flushed I was getting.
"Yeah of course against a tree," Alex said sarcastically. Luckily my phone went off in my pocket so didn't have to say anything else to make myself blush. I pulled my phone out Mon El name was on the seen. "And she smiles more I gather that's lover boy."
Hi Kara
Just wanted to warn you, the big man in red yellow and blue with a s on his chest is about to show up at yours.
PS Good luck
Your handsome hero
Mon El
"Oh shit," I said."What the matter?" Alex asked alarmed.
"Clarks in town and coming here," I said.
"And why don't you want to see your cousin," Alex laughed.
"I haven't told him about me and Mon El," I said.
"Oh you're in trouble," Alex commented.
"Thanks Alex," I deadpanned.
"You should probably tell him before he finds out," Alex suggested.
"You don't say," I responded in the same tone before texting back to Mon El.
Hi Mon El
Thanks for the warning and I'll take care of it
Somehow
See you tomorrow
Your Supergirlfriend
Kara Zor-El
We went inside so it looked like we didn't know he was coming. We had been in the house five minutes before the door bell rang
"I'll get it," I said jumping up from the couch were me and Alex sat. I got and made my way to the door i opened it to see Clark and Lois standing on the doorstep. "Hi Clark," I greeted with a smile. Or at least I think it was a smile.
"Hey Kara," he smiled back. "Can we come in?"
"Yeah," I replied as I stepped out of the way and allowed them to enter. "Come on in."
They walked passed and I made sure to close the door behind them. Lois greeted me with a hug and smiled at me. I hugged her back and sighed. When was the last time I saw them? Months if I wasn't mistaken, though I kind of got used to their presence whenever they were around, especially Lois. I don't know why but she kind of reminded me of my mom at times.
We went into the living room where Eliza and Alex sat we all sat talking for a bit before Eliza said that her and Alex would leave me and Clark to talk. Lois joined Eliza and alex out of the room.
"So how has school been?" Clark asked.
"It been fine exams went well I think," I replied I didn't know how i was going to tell him about me and Mon-El. We sat talking for a while longer.
"I heard you were at Mon El's last football game today. I didn't realize you and him got along when I have spoke to you in the past you didn't like him," Clark said finally the subject of Mon El was brought up.
"Yeah we became friends we ended up going to prom together as friends," I told him I had the perfect change to tell him but I chickened out.
"Well am glad you are friends, he's just like us Kara. He's good person," Clark said. I'm pleased to hear that Clark thinks its good were friend but I don't know I he would be ok with us being more.
A while later Lois and Clark are about to leave. I see them to the door Clark headed toward the car. Lois stayed behind to speak to me.
"You didn't tell him, did you?" Lois asked confusing me.
"What?" I asked.
"About you Mon El," Lois replies I look confused at her. "I saw the picture of the two of you on his phone."
"Oh I will tell him I just don't know how he would react," I said.
"I'm sure he would be fine with it," Lois said before smiling and walking away.
I wish I had her confidence...
