Could you please do one with grumpy, clingy Alex after a DEO mission leaves her with a broken bone?

A request from The-SuperLizard :) This one is quite fluffy.

"This sucks," Alex grumbled as she hobbled her way into Kara's apartment. She had broken her leg while on a mission, J'onn having to come to rescue her, and was now restricted to crutches.

"Well if you weren't so reckless maybe you would be able to stand on your own right now," Kara started matter-of-factly, playfully tapping her sister on the nose.

Alex scrunched her face up and pulled away. "Hey, only I'm allowed to do that."

"Ha, and what are you going to do about?" Kara asked, doing it again just to spite her.

Alex growled and hobbled her way over to the couch to sit down. "As soon as I get this cast off..."

"You'll what?" Kara challenged, taking a seat next to Alex. "You'll do nothing. You love me too much."

Alex looked her in the eyes for a few seconds, knowing she was right. "I hate you," she whispered before she kissed her on the nose.

Kara giggled and bumped their foreheads together. "I love you too."

Alex quickly hid her face in Kara's collarbone to hide her smile. "I'm so jealous off your invincibility..."

Kara wrapped her up and held her close, happy it wasn't worse than just a broken bone. "I do feel pain, you know. If I lost my powers, I'd be just as helpless as you."

"Gee thanks," Alex sarcastically muttered, leaning into her touch. They stayed like that for a long time, Kara stroking her hair occasionally until Alex groaned and moved away.

"Hey, are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm- ffffine, okay, maybe I'm a little sore." Alex laughed it off. "But it's nothing I can't handle."

Kara sarcastically nodded. "Uh-huh. Are you ready for your pain meds?"

"Yes please..."

Kara giggled and jumped off the couch. "I gotcha, hold on."

Alex rolled her eyes and put a pillow over her face. "Why must you mock me with your bounciness...?"

Kara blushed. "Um, sorry, I didn't think about that..." She came back over with the pain medication and took the pillow off of her sister's face. "You can sit up on your own, right?"

Alex grumbled and sat up, holding back her grimaces. "Watch it, Zor-el..."

"No, you watch it." Kara handed her the pills and a glass of water, shaking her head. "Breaking your leg on a mission is beyond stupid maneuver, Danvers. You could've been killed!"

Alex put down the objects and bowed her head.

Kara softened at Alex's submissiveness. "But you weren't, because you're one of the strongest people I know. And I know Superman, so, that says something."

Alex laughed a little. "Listen, I'm sorry if I scared you... It wasn't my intention, and I'll try and be more careful next time."

"It's okay, and yes, please do." Kara sat next to her again. "Now take your meds before I have to force you to."

"Alright, alright." Alex did as she was told then leaned her head on Kara's shoulder. "But you have to do what I say. I'm a wounded solider, Kara."

Kara rolled her eyes before she kissed the top of her head. "Uh-huh, you sure are."

"I am, so you're supposed to be nice to me," Alex mumbled into Kara's neck.

"Have the meds already started making you loopy?" Kara asked, petting her hair in a gentle manner.

"No, I'm just in pain and I hate everything but you," Alex answered honestly, drawing even closer.

Kara laughed. "Well, then I'm glad you still like me." She then slowly sat up so Alex would move. "Now come on, let's move you to the bed before these pain killers knock you out."

Alex huffed and allowed Kara to help her stand up. "Once again, it's Supergirl to the rescue..."

"Alex, don't be that way. I don't need to be Supergirl to help you out," Kara pointed up, wrapping an arm around Alex's waist. She knew she could easily just carry her, but wanted to leave Alex with some dignity.

Alex firmly held onto Kara's shoulder and nodded once. She knew she meant well, but Alex couldn't help but feel a little vulnerable. "I know... Thank you, Kara."

Kara bumped her head against her sister's before they started walking. "You're welcome." Slowly yet surely, they made their way to Alex's bedroom and Kara helped Alex lower herself into the bed. "Do you need anything? Like an extra pillow or...?"

"Yeah, a pillow for my leg would be nice," Alex conceded.

"Okay, I'll be right back." Kara used her super speed to grab a pillow from the other room and came back almost too quickly.

Alex blew her hair out of her face and shook her head. "Dude..."

Kara rubbed the back of her neck and laughed awkwardly. "Heh, sorry, I didn't think about that..."

Alex couldn't help but smile. "You're so cute."

Kara blushed and helped Alex prop her leg up. "Anything else, Milady?"

"Yeah. C'mere."

"Alex, I don't think-"

"Don't care." Alex crossed her arms and smirked. "I'm in pain, so you're supposed to be nice to me."

Kara huffed, then complied and climbed into the bed. "You're so clingy when you're hurt."

Alex tapped her on the nose and grinned. "Wounded soldier, remember?"

Kara snuggled closer and threw an arm around Alex's middle. "Right. My poor wounded soldier."

Alex relaxed and let her head rest against Kara's forehead. "Got that right."

Kara interlaced her fingers with one of Alex's hands and squeezed lightly. "I'm glad you're okay..."

Alex squeezed back and closed her eyes. "I'm always going to be right here, Kara..."

Kara sensed that the medication was kicking in so she held her sister a little tighter and allowed her eyes to close as well. "Good... Sleep well, Alex, and may you heal quickly."

Alex laughed softly. "You're such dork..."
