Tuesday morning found a very antsy Kara fighting with her doctor. "I'm fine. I need to go to work. I've missed too much time lately, and I need to catch up."

Dr. Morris shook her head. "No way. You're staying home today. Director's orders."

Hank and Alex came in, and Alex grinned. "Is she fighting with you already? Glad to see she's feeling better. Come on Supergirl, Cat's penthouse is waiting. I'm accompanying you today, because no one trusts you to stay home if we leave you alone. So we'll be hanging out at Cat's place, and I'll be drinking all of her scotch while you rest. I think Lucy is coming too."

"We're going to Cat's apartment?" Kara said hopefully.

"We are. She wouldn't hear of you staying anywhere else. Apparently she feels better having you there, where she can keep an eye on you."

"Okay," Kara said quietly.

Alex, who had been prepared to argue for much longer, shook her head. "Wow. Talk about whipped."

Kara just smiled happily.

Alex discovered that Cat had more scotch than she could ever drink in her life, so she settled for making a small dent in the supply. "This stuff is amazing," she slurred happily, flopping down onto the couch.

Kara just rolled her eyes, laughing. "You're drunk."

"Well yeah, that's kinda the point, isn't it?"

Kara responded, smiling, "I wouldn't know."

Lucy entered the room with her fifth or sixth glass of whiskey. She had lost count somewhere around three or four. Alex declared, "Never mind that. I need a hot, rich girlfriend of my own to buy me scotch. And for sex. Lots and lots of sex."

Kara sighed happily.

Suddenly alert, Alex spun to look at Kara. "You've had sex? Why wasn't I told? I need details."

"Oh my God," Lucy squealed. "Kara, how was it? Tell me everything."

Kara blushed a deep crimson. "I didn't say that. I didn't say anything."

Alex responded, "You may not have said anything, but your face said it all. Come on, Kara, is she the Queen of All Sex?" She snorted at her own terrible joke.

Kara fidgeted uncomfortably, still blushing a deep red. "I am NOT talking about this. Not with two drunk people."

"Talking about what?" asked a voice from the hallway. Cat Grant entered, looking tired but gorgeous. Kara immediately wanted to end this conversation about sex and focus on the real activity.

"Finally, someone who will answer our questions," Alex declared. "Cat, you and Kara had sex?"

Cat laughed. Seeing the look on Kara's face, she laughed even harder. "I'm not sure that Kara is going to survive this conversation." She grinned and continued. "But yes we did, and it was the most amazing night of my life."

Lucy sighed happily. "How many times?"

Cat smirked. "I think I lost count around five or six."

"Five or… Oh my God," Alex said. "I need to know everything."

Cat was thoroughly enjoying watching Kara squirm. Plus, she was happy to talk about what had been an incredible experience. "Well, I probably would have waited longer, but Kara can be very… persuasive when she wants to be. Before long, I was begging her not to stop."

Kara buried her face in her hands. Lucy looked at Cat and grinned, knowing how much she was enjoying Kara's reactions. "Where, exactly, was her mouth when you were begging her?"

"Well," Cat said. "It's hard to remember. It seemed like it was everywhere at once. She's pretty talented." She laughed and glanced at Kara, determined to push this even further. "Apparently she has done tons of reading, and watched a lot of videos, in preparation for that night. She was an expert, and I hadn't expected that at all. It was so incredibly hot."

Kara moaned and sank down onto the floor. She curled into the fetal position and wrapped her arms over her head.

Lucy chimed in, giggling. "Tell me, Cat, is Kara a screamer?"

Cat grinned. "Let's just say that it's a good thing Carter wasn't around, because she wasn't exactly quiet. And I learned some Kryptonian phrases that I probably shouldn't repeat."

At this point, Alex was rolling around on the couch, laughing hysterically. Lucy was giggling, and Cat was grinning. Kara was trying to melt into the floor. When Alex finally regained control, she sighed and said, "So incredibly jealous right now."

Cat smiled and said, "Alex, you could have any of a number of women."

"Nah," Alex said. "I'm universally friend-zoned."

"That's not true at all," retorted Lucy. "You're just clueless when people are attracted to you."

Cat smirked. It was time to leave these two alone. "I'm going to go make dinner. Kara, I think I'm going to need your help."

Kara managed to peel herself off the floor and leave the room.

"What did you mean by that?" Alex asked, confused.

Lucy answered, "Alex, you're smart, kind, and incredibly hot. Who wouldn't want to sleep with you?'

Alex responded, "You're drunk."

Lucy laughed. "Of course I'm drunk. But I'm also being honest."

"Really?" Alex said, encouraged. She'd had a crush on Lucy for as long as she'd known the woman. But Lucy was straight. Wasn't she? "You and James…" Alex trailed off.

"Are over," finished Lucy. "And in answer to the question you're not asking, I'm bi." She stood up suddenly. "We're not talking about this while we're drunk. But…" She leaned down and placed a soft kiss on Alex's cheek. "I'm definitely interested, if you are." She straightened up, smiled at Alex, and left the room.

Carter came home, and the five of them had dinner. Carter was delighted to spend more time with Alex, and he insisted on showing her his collection of video games. The two were soon embroiled in a Mario Kart war, while Cat, Kara, and Lucy watched in amusement. Cat sat curled into Kara on the couch, and was watching her son with a fond expression. Lucy, meanwhile, was mesmerized by Alex, who had sobered up enough to give Carter a run for his money.

Noticing Lucy's gaze, Cat grinned. It appeared these two would need no further encouragement. She was pleased to see that things were progressing, and sincerely hoped it would work out. The two women were so perfect for each other.

When Alex and Lucy got up to leave for the night, Cat insisted on sending them home with her driver, because they had been drinking. She noticed that Alex took Lucy's hand as they were leaving, and that Lucy didn't seem to mind the contact at all.

Meanwhile, Cat was focused on her own girlfriend, and on finding the time to repeat last night's activities with the beautiful superhero. She sent Carter up to get ready for bed, and murmured for Kara to meet her in her room once she had said good night to Carter.

When Cat finally stepped into her bedroom, she nearly fainted in shock. There was Kara, lying on the bed in just a red lacy bra and a matching pair of underwear. She could hardly contain the flame of desire that surged through her, and she quickly stepped toward the bed. Kara looked at her shyly, a question in her eyes. Cat murmured, "You are more beautiful than anything I could ever have imagined," and then leaned down and kissed her with desperation. She spent the rest of the night making sure that Kara knew exactly how much she wanted her.
