Conversations on a Balcony

A/N: Follow on from the last one!


After sharing a long hug and even longer make out session with Cat, Kara grabbed her phone out of her boot, took a picture of her left hand and sent it in a text message. Then she hit a contact and kissed down Cat's throat as she waited for it to be answered.

"Hey, Kara."

"Hey Alex," the hero said. "Check out the text I just sent you."

"Ok, hold on..." There was a moment of silence and then Cat laughed as Alex screamed down the phone. "HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

Kara grinned like an idiot and kissed Cat again just waiting for her sister to calm down enough to talk. "It's gorgeous, right?"

"Gorgeous?! GORGEOUS?! Jesus, Kara... it's..." Alex sighed, and Kara heard a creak as the director sat down. "Tell Cat she did good," she finished, sniffling a little and then clearing her throat.

"Thanks, Alex," the older woman chuckled as she leaned close to the mic. "Come over for dinner tomorrow night to celebrate?"

"I'd love to, thanks, Cat," Alex replied with a smile in her voice.

"Hey, bring James's sister with you," her sister added.

"Kara," Alex warned with a chuckle.

"C'mon, Alex, she's gorgeous and totally into you. I can tell these things."

"Matchmaker," Cat murmured, nibbling on her fiancée's earlobe.

"Really?" Alex asked. "Huh. Ok, I'll ask Kelly to come and… hey Kara?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm so proud of you. Congratulations... to both of you… and I love you both."

"Love you too, Alex," the Kryptonian replied, breath hitching as tears welled once more. "I'll see you tomorrow night. I'm taking Cat shopping for her ring tomorrow."

Cat's face lit up and she grabbed her phone to text Eve that she was taking the next day off.

"Cool. Have fun! Bye." Alex hung up and Kara slipped her phone back into her boot before looking sheepishly at her fiancée.

"So... um... I've been saving for a ring for you for a while, but I haven't quite gotten there yet."

"Don't worry about that, Sweetheart," the older blonde chuckled. "It'll all work out." She smiled then. "How long have you been saving?"

The Kryptonian looked down for a moment as she blushed a tad. "Since the paycheck after you got back from Europe."

Cat gasped softly as she calculated the time in her head. "Really? You've wanted to ask me to marry you for over two years?"

"Two years, eight months and nineteen days," Kara replied. "I've known that you were the one since the first time we made love."

"Oh Kara," the older woman sighed. "Sometimes you take my breath away."

"Good," the younger woman smiled. "Because you take mine every time I look at you."

"Sweet talker," Cat grinned.

"Truth talker," Kara replied as she leaned in for another kiss.
