Alex gave a stretch as she woke up, and turned to her side, smiling as she saw Maggie laying there, still asleep. She propped her head up with her hand and reached her other hand over, gently tracing a scar she'd spotted between Maggie's right breast and collar bone. "Cyborg Superman shot me with his laser eye." Maggie murmured, still half asleep.

"The bastard." Alex muttered.

Maggie scoffed. "Made me realise life was short though and that I should tell you how I feel and we got together, so in a way I guess it was a good thing." Maggie kept her eyes shut as she spoke.

"Well yeah if it got you to be with me." Alex smiled as she continued to trace over the scar.

"Such a prominent scar though because of your dodgy stitching skills." Maggie smirked.

"Hey," Alex slapped her chest. "I'm good at that and it's not that prominent."

"I know," Maggie yawned. "What time is it?"

Alex glanced around at the bedside table, looking to the clock. "Almost 6." Alex answered. Maggie groaned as she turned around, cuddling herself into Alex.

"Why are you always such an early riser?" Maggie's voice was mumbled as her face was against Alex's chest.

"I dunno," Alex shrugged as she wrapped her arm over Maggie, letting it rest on the small of her back. "I could try and get some more sleep or we could pick up where we left off last night…" Alex trailed off as she slid her hand under Maggie's boy shorts and cupped her bum cheek.

Maggie grinned as she looked up to Alex and finally opened her eyes. "That would be something worth waking up for." Maggie raised her eyebrows and met Alex in a kiss. Alex smiled into the kiss, letting it deepen as she felt Maggie's hand wandering down her stomach, stopping at the rim of her boy shorts.

"Please, Maggie." Alex mumbled before smacking her lips against hers again. Maggie took this as permission and she removed the boy shorts as much as she could before she had to break the kiss. She moved herself down the bed and slowly brought Alex's boy shorts all the way down her legs, pulling them off. She took her own off as well, seeing Alex suddenly looked a little shy. She crawled back up and straddled over Alex, smiling down at her, trying to make her feel comfortable. She gently stroked her cheek, before looking down to Alex's chest.

"Bras?" Maggie questioned. Alex didn't answer with words, but she arched her back slightly, Maggie taking this as permission. She reached her hands under and unhooked Alex's bra throwing it across the room before taking her own off. She saw Alex staring at her for a moment, or more accurately, at her breasts before she looked away, shyly, her face reddening. "Al babe, you don't have to be embarrassed. You can look at me. And you are beautiful, everything about you, I love," Maggie told her. Alex looked back around to her, a smile forming on her face. "Just…relax." Maggie said, before leaning down and placing a soft kiss on Alex's lips.


Alex walked into the bathroom and over to Maggie, wrapping her arms around her from behind as she placed a kiss in the crook of her neck. Maggie smiled as she turned herself around, Alex's hands sliding so they were around her waist as Maggie wrapped hers around Alex's neck. She looked deep into her hazel eyes, captivated by her beauty. "Good morning." Maggie grinned softly. After they'd had sex, they'd both fallen asleep again, their bodies all tangled. For a change, Maggie had woken first and had gone down to the bathroom to get herself ready for the day.

"I woke up and you were gone." Alex murmured.

"You looked so peaceful so I thought I'd let you sleep." Maggie told her.

"Well, I'm awake now," Alex raised her eyebrows before placing a soft kiss on Maggie's lips. "And uh….I would like it if you came back to bed," Alex spoke suggestively as her had went down and squeezed Maggie's bum cheek. Maggie smiled softly as she tucked Alex's hair behind her ear. "Unless you didn't….was it not good for you?" Alex questioned. "Did I do something wrong?"

"No," Maggie answered. "God no, Alex it was…" Maggie trailed off, her eyes widening. "Could you not tell how much I enjoyed it by that epic orgasm you gave me?" Maggie asked, Alex going all red in the face as she broke eye contact. "Al, it was perfect." Maggie told her with a smile.

Alex smiled at Maggie's words. "Yeah?"

"Yeah," Maggie answered. "Now instead of going back to bed, how about you join me in the shower?"

"That doesn't sound like the worst idea." Alex murmured before she leaned down and placed a soft kiss on Maggie's lips.

"I am known to have good ideas." Maggie grinned before she stepped back, taking Alex by the hand and leading her over to the shower.


Alex met Kara at Noonan's for a late lunch. "So, I've not seen you for a few days," Alex noted. "You been too busy with Mon-El?" Alex got a cheeky grin on her face.

"I've been working actually. You know Superheroing," Kara told her. "Although I have been out with Mon-El, but we are just friends," Kara emphasised. "For now, at least."

"Ah," Alex raised her eyebrows. "So, you do like him?"

"I don't know," Kara shrugged. "I just…maybe. I….he's a nice guy but when it comes to women he's a bit of a…." Kara pursed her lips. "Let's just say he'll sleep with any woman who so much as glances in his direction," Kara exhaled. "I don't want to be just another notch on his bed post. I…I want to be more than that."

"So, he's a man slut," Alex noted and Kara nodded. "Well sometimes when they meet the right person they can change."

"Maybe," Kara didn't sound so sure. "Anyways," Kara said, clearly wanting to change the subject. "How are things with you? Any more memories? How are things progressing with you and Maggie?" Alex couldn't help but get a big grin on her face. "That good huh?" Kara questioned.

"She's amazing," Alex told her sister. "Things are great and I am remembering more," Alex smiled. "It's a slow frustrating process but things with me and Maggie are great so that's all that matters."

"Well, that's good. I'm glad you are getting some memories back." Kara smiled.

"Yeah me too," Alex said. "Did uhm, did you know she proposed to me?" Alex questioned.

"Yeah, she told me about it," Kara told her. "I guess that's something that you have remembered?"

"Uh huh," Alex nodded. "I just feel so awful. She was ready to commit the rest of her life to me and I…I remember I was about to say yes but then that stupid truck," Alex shook her head. "And that's been ripped from her. She didn't get a fiancée, she got woman who couldn't remember her."

"Yeah but you are still with her and you are trying and you are remembering." Kara told her.

"I…want to do something for her, something nice," Alex said. "But, I…I know that she loves bonsai trees and scotch and guns and tiramisu but I….what can I do for her?" Alex asked.

"She probably doesn't want anything," Kara told her sister. Alex sighed as she tilted her head to the side ever so slightly. "I…just take her out for a nice meal. She loves that Mexican place that's in Victoria Square Mall, or you could go bowling, she loves bowling."

"Yeah, she told me she loves bowling," Alex replied. "I'm just not sure how well I will be able to do the bowling action. My knee still hurts sometimes."

"You could use one of those roller things that the kids use." Kara laughed. Alex furrowed her eyebrows.

"Because that wouldn't look stupid." Alex mumbled.

Kara just laughed again. "She always likes going to the alien bar to play pool. I'm sure she'd be up for a night there." Kara said.

"We've been there a few times though," Alex told her. "It's a hangout place for us. I wanted to make it more special." Alex sighed. She hated that she didn't know what would make her girlfriend happy. What would be something that she'd enjoy.

"Oooh," Kara banged her hand off the table, causing Alex to jump in fright. "You could take her camping. She likes camping. It could be all romantic, gazing at the stars as you toast marshmallows on the fire."

"It's the middle of winter," Alex screeched. "And we are going to Mum's in a few days," Alex sighed. "Which reminds me that I still need to do Christmas shopping. You are so going to have to help me with Maggie's gift."

"We can go shopping after lunch." Kara told her sister.

Alex gave her an appreciative smile. "Ah she likes basketball, right?" Alex questioned and Kara gave a little nod. "I'm sure there's a game here tomorrow night. Maybe there will still be tickets."

"Sounds good," Kara said. "You guys have been to a lot of basketball games."

Alex gave a little smile. "Well, I have some ideas." Alex said, just as the waitress came over with their lunches. Alex thanked her as she picked up her knife and fork, ready to eat her lunch.


Maggie yawned as she walked into the house, locking the door behind her. She took her beanie and coat off, hanging them on one of the coat hooks by the door. She walked up the stairs and down to the bathroom. She cleaned her teeth and took off her make-up. Not that she wore much to work. She yawned again as she walked down the hall and pushed open the bedroom door. "Oh hello." Maggie smiled as she saw Alex sitting in the bed, the side light on as she was looking through a photo album.

"Hey, is this okay?" Alex questioned.

"Of course it is," Maggie answered as she took off her t-shirt, throwing it into the laundry basket. She walked over to the bed and sat down on the edge, leaning down to take her boots off. She stood back up and unbuttoned her jeans before she stopped and looked around to Alex. Sure, they'd had sex and she'd seen her naked but she wanted to make doubly sure that Alex was okay with Maggie undressing in front of her. "You don't want me to change in the bathroom, right?"

"No," Alex gave a little laugh. "If you change in the bathroom I won't be able to see you," Alex murmured. "Besides, if you did, then you'd have to come back in here just for me to take it off again, so…" Alex raised her eyebrows as she closed the photo album and put it on her bedside table. She shuffled over on her knees in the bed and pulled Maggie close to her, her hands going on her back as she pulled her into a kiss.

"Mmm," Maggie pulled back as Alex's hands moved to her front, pushing her jeans down her thighs. "You are a keen little one, aren't you?" Maggie noted, tucking Alex's hair behind her ear. "We've already had sex twice this morning."

Alex glanced to the clock, seeing it was 10 to midnight. "Well pretty soon it's going to be tomorrow and we've not had sex tomorrow yet," Alex murmured and Maggie laughed. "Do you not want too?" Alex asked.

"I want too." Maggie smiled as she kissed Alex. She'd missed being intimate with her, and now that Alex wanted to do it, they had almost a month of making up to do. The kissing became more passionate, tongues fighting for space in each other's mouths.

"Mmm, wait, hold that thought," Alex pulled back and leaned down, opening the top drawer of her bedside table. Maggie pulled her jeans the rest of the way down her legs, throwing them to the side, before pulling her socks off. "I uh….sit." Alex patted the bed and Maggie sat down.

"What's this?" Maggie questioned, taking the envelope from Alex's hand.

"Maybe if you open it you'd find out." Alex muttered. Maggie stifled a laugh before she opened the envelope and saw two tickets to a basketball game. National City Stallions vs the Los Angeles Lakers.

"Babe," Maggie smiled up at her. "What's this for?"

"Just because," Alex shrugged. "You've been so patient and understanding and just….I want you to know how much I appreciate you," Alex said. "So, tomorrow night we are going out for dinner and going to see a game. You like basketball, right?" Alex questioned. "There was that picture on my Facebook of us at a game and I remember you saying that we went in New York."

"Yeah, we did," Maggie answered. "We are both into basketball. Thanks baby. You didn't need too." Maggie leaned forward and placed a kiss on Alex's lips.

"I wanted too," Alex told her. "And besides I thought we were due another date night." Alex said. The Valentines recreation date being their last one.

"Well I can't wait." Maggie smiled before putting the tickets on Alex's bedside table. "But first let's get back to what we were getting started." Maggie said as she pulled Alex into a hungry kiss.
