Chapter 37
Kara/Supergirl's P.O.V.
Tonight went really well. Eliza finally met Cat and Clark got along with Cat, too. Carter seemed to enjoy himself as well. Tomorrow...Eliza's Chocolate Pecan Pie! Can anything get better than that? Well, I know one thing that's way better...Tehehe
I walk over to Cat, wrap my arms around her and give her a big kiss.
"Mmmm...Thanks sweetheart. Maybe we should have your family over more often."
I laugh.
"Sure...shall I go check on Carter, double check that he brushed his teeth?"
She rolls her eyes.
"Yeah. Who knows, he may have decided to become a rebel tonight and not do it. He may have also decided to put on his pajamas inside out. Da-da-daaaaa!"
I stare at her.
"Oh my. I know you're feeling alright or I would've noticed something...unless there's a glitch in our bond. Hmmm...nah. I'll be right back."
I knock on Carter's door as he allows me inside.
"Hey bud, your mom wanted me to make sure that you brushed your teeth and put your PJ's on the right way."
He looks at me sideways.
"My pajamas's are on correct...I think. I did brush my teeth, wanna smell?"
I giggle.
"No thanks, silly guy. I'll take you're word for it. Did you have fun tonight?"
He smiles.
"I had so much fun. I still can't believe I didn't figure it out until tonight that Superman is your cousin. Do you two go flying together? Do you two ever just do silly things like see who could fly the fastest or hold their breath the longest?"
I crack up.
"No, we've never done those things but we do rough house sometimes. We know we cannot harm each other so it can get a tad destructive if we get carried away."
His eyes get big.
"You two fight each other? Isn't that's wrong?"
I think for a second.
"Carter, have you ever watched pro-wresting on TV, you know, like WWE wrestlers Edge or Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?"
He nods.
"What do you think of that, of what they do?"
"I know it's staged or scripted rather. They practice ahead of time so they don't hurt each other. It's almost like a violent ballet."
I nod.
"That's a very interesting way to put it. Well, that's kinda what Clark and I do minus a script."
Carter smiles.
"I get it. You two are having fun."
I grin and ruffle his hair.
"Yep. I'm so glad you had fun tonight Carter. I was kinda worried you would be bored."
He laughs.
"Nope. I only would've been bored if they were celebrities. Some of them only like to talk about themselves. Big snooze fest."
He falls over on his bed pretending to have fallen asleep, making loud snoring sounds as I laugh.
"You know it bud. Well I've already kept you up more than I should've. Goodnight, Carter. See you in the morning!"
He gives me a big hug.
"Goodnight, Kara."
I walk out into the hallway where Cat has been standing the whole time.
"You knew I was out here, didn't you."
I give her a kiss.
"Yep."
"Could you sense me?"
"Yep. I also could smell your perfume."
She blushes.
"You can still smell my perfume? I thought that faded off hours ago. Amazing."
I smile.
"You are amazing babe."
She chuckles.
"Has anyone ever told you you're corny, sweetheart?"
"All the time. So, what would you like to do now?"
She sighs.
"I'd like to get off my feet, that's what I'd like to do."
With that I scoop her up.
"Where would you like me to take you, my lady?"
She laughs while shaking her head.
"Is it wrong that I get a kick out of how little effort it takes for you to lift me? Makes me believe I weigh as much as a feather."
I chuckle.
"But you only do weigh the same as a feather…to me anyways."
Cat sticks her tongue out at me.
"Just for that, I'm going to call Eliza in the morning and tell her that only Carter and I am to have her Chocolate Pecan Pie she's making for you and to make it extra tiny."
I almost drop her.
"You wouldn't dare. That's like, the best pie in the galaxy!"
She smirks.
"Well then she shouldn't have teased me. How are you ever going to make it up to me?"
I carefully place her down on our bed.
"Hmmm...I'm not quite sure. Can you give me a minute or two?"
I don't give her time to answer as I zip out of the room back down to the den to retrieve something.
** Before Kara can rejoin Cat upstairs, Alex calls her for a Supergirl emergency. **
"Cat, Alex just called..."
She frowns
"Go on, Supergirl. Please be safe out there as you have a family you need to return to."
I give her a quick kiss.
"I will always return to both of you, I promise. Here, Chewy will keep you company while I'm off saving the world."
She rolls her eyes.
"Gee, thanks. Please be quick before this fur ball gives me fleas."
I gasp.
"He can hear you, you know, so don't insult him. He's going to protect you."
She cracks up.
"Sorry Chewy, didn't mean to hurt your feelings. So big fella, do you like to cuddle?"
I stare at her.
"Um, I gotta go. Behave you two. I love you, babe."
"I love you, too, sweetheart. Oh, and we'll behave...maybe."
As I fly off from our balcony I can hear Cat speaking.
"Hey Chewy...wanna make out?"
I fly back past the windows and yell inside.
"I heard that!"
She giggles.
"Hurry home Supergirl."
** A few hours later, Kara returns home and crawls into bed, snuggling up to Cat as she sleeps. **
"You made it back to me."
I smile.
"I told you I would. Where's Chewy?"
Cat sniffs my hair.
"I put him back in his place of honor over on the pillow. Kara, your hair smells like *sniff, sniff* bay water and fish. Please go shower my love."
I pout.
"But babe, I've already showered at the DEO, washing my hair four times, before I came back home."
"Well maybe you need to wash it a fifth time. Chop, chop."
I slowly get out of the bed and head towards the bathroom to shower again.
** Kara is just finishing washing her hair when the shower door opens up. **
"Need some company?
I stare at Cat who's completely naked and is now climbing into the shower with me.
"C-Cat...hi. Yes, I'd love some company."
She smirks.
"Thought so. I figured you would need help washing your...hair."
"Totally babe, totally."
