I... I... want... I want you to become my wife Lena, you are the love of my life and I don't want to waste another second, I want you to be part of my life forever
Kara had just pronounced these divine words, Lena did not move any more, as if paralyzed by this sudden request. Her heart missed several beats, the heat of her body increased, her breathing became jerky and a strange and magical feeling invaded her whole being. Had Kara really just proposed to her right then and there or had she been dreaming? If it was a dream thought Lena, what a wonderful and sweet dream. The thought of staying for the rest of her life with the woman she loved was a divine feeling, and now that she had heard her words, she wanted it more than anything else in the world.
The Kryptonian had backed away from Lena slightly, she still had tears in her eyes from the events that had just happened, feeling guilty for not having arrived in time to save this elderly couple.
She planted her azure blue eyes in the emerald green of Lena's eyes, waiting for any sign from her.
Then Kara resumed her tirade Listen to my heart as it beats hard Lena, it beats for you, for us, for our love, never could I feel a stronger emotion than what I feel for you. Life is short, too short, it would take me all eternity to show you every day how much I love you. But we don't have eternity, and I don't want to waste another minute or live in a world where you wouldn't be by my side. I'm so in love with you Lena, so much so if you only knew how much.
Lena hadn't even noticed it, but the two women were floating three feet off the ground, making the businesswoman cling to her kryptonian like a castaway clings to his boat. Then Supergirl slowly walked down to Lena's room to lay them both face to face in bed, still in each other's arms. Kara was looking for nothing more than to be in the reassuring arms of the woman she loved.
Lena was still struggling to realize, she loved Kara Denvers so much and with such strength that it was almost physically painful. And when she finally decided to open her mouth to shout a big yes to her, Kara placed a finger on her lips so that she couldn't speak, to Lena's astonishment.
Lena, please don't answer me now, I want to make my request in the right way, something out of the ordinary for an extraordinary woman. I don't want an answer now, tonight, I just want you to take me tenderly in your arms and surround me with your protective arms. Tonight I just want you, me, us and nothing else.
Lena nodded silently, content to plant her emerald gaze into Kara's azure blue and gently replace the strand of hair that was dragging in front of her eyes behind her ear.
Neither woman was speaking now. Kara hadn't bothered to take off her Supergirl costume tonight, she didn't have the strength to do so.
Lena, finally took Kara's hand and put it on her own heart, asking her to listen to its beating, reminding her that it is only beating for her.
The two women fell asleep peacefully.
The next morning, Kara was no longer in bed, so it was alone in bed that Lena woke up, to her astonishment. It was not Kara's habit to leave Lena in the morning, but she had nevertheless left her a small perfumed note delicately placed on her pillow.
Sorry my love someone needed Supergirl and I didn't want to be too late this time. I ordered you a breakfast because I care about your life and in this case it was better that I didn't make it for you. It should arrive shortly after you wake up. Yes, my love, I'm getting to know the woman I love well and I know more or less what time you wake up now. See you later, I love you.
Lena felt quite amused by this message, humecting the delicious smell of the scented paper that Kara had deposited. She still felt a little frustrated not to have her beauty with her, but she understood that being Supergirl couldn't be easy to deal with every day.
Then she smiled when the doorbell rang. Kara was right, she was getting to know her like the back of her hand, the delivery man had arrived almost as soon as she woke up.
Then she began to smile when the doorbell rang. Kara was right, she was getting to know her like the back of her hand, the delivery man had arrived almost as soon as she woke up.
She had just enough time to put on a bathrobe before going to open the door for the delivery man. She took the package he handed her, wanted to pay for it but was unable to do so, assuring her that the order had already been paid for. Then he left, with the generous tip Lena had left him.
When she sat down on the kitchen counter to open her packet, waffles, pancakes, croissants etc... Lena thought that Kara had probably forgotten that she didn't have the same ogre appetite as she did, but seeing all her pastries in front of her made her want to.
And as she began to nibble a croissant, she almost choked with laughter when in the middle of the pastries she discovered a fully charred pancake with a little paper and a note inside that said:
It wouldn't be a real Kara Danvers lunch if there wasn't at least one pancake to burn
Decidedly Kara is really full of surprise she thought and she felt really lucky to have him in her life.
Meanwhile, Kara had gone to WD, she needed to talk to her sister about her intentions with Lena and she needed her help as well as WD's technology.
When she arrived in her Supergirl outfit, she was greeted directly by her sister who took her in her arms, while bumping her arm and asking her not to do the same tricks again as the night before, which made both women laugh.
Then Kara changed to super speed and asked Alex if she could talk to her alone.
So they went to Alex's office and Kara started talking. Kara spoke so fast while pacing around in the office that Alex could not understand a word that came out of her sister's mouth.
Alex stood in front of his sister and put both arms on her shoulders to stop her and asked her to calmly repeat what she wanted to say.
Kara took a deep breath, looked her sister straight in the eye and finally said to her:
I'm going to ask Lena to marry me
Alex, after a moment of floating in front of the news, exploded with joy, jumping all over the office and encircling Kara with his arms, who, if she hadn't been Supergirl, would probably have choked to death.
Kara tried her best to calm her sister down and when she finally managed to do so after several minutes of intense excitement, she finally told her that in order to apply she would need not only her help but also that of the WD, or rather, their technology.
Alex was intrigued by this request, but when Kara explained what she wanted to do, she thought the idea was absolutely brilliant and of course she agreed that WD technology would help her with it.
They both went to Kara's parents' office. They also had to tell them the news and they too exploded with joy when they heard the news because they were so happy for their daughter. And they thought Kara's idea for the proposal was absolutely brilliant. And for them, it was impossible to say no to such a request, which made Kara smile, and even though she already knew that Lena would probably say yes, the stress was starting to build up anyway.
In the evening, Kara had given Lena a surprise appointment and in order not to give her a precise destination, she had simply transmitted her GPS coordinates. Lena had been intrigued by the fact that the coordinates were on a hill.
But she went there anyway, in a hurry to find the woman she loved, whom she hadn't seen all day and who she missed very much.
It was now 8pm, night was beginning to fall, and she was in the middle of nowhere but knew that Kara was probably watching over her from afar. She walked for almost an hour before arriving at her destination after parking her car on the side of the hill.
Her heart was starting to throb, she was pining, wanting to get back to Kara's arms as soon as possible. Then she finally arrived at the destination indicated by the GPS. She was at the top of a hill, Kara was there, waiting for her impatiently. Her heart, she was convinced that Lena could hear her as it was beating so loudly and her eyes marvelled when they saw Lena arrive.
Lena found Kara beautiful at that moment and couldn't help but stop instantly when she saw her, her gaze lingering on the angelic shapes of her beautiful, sublimated by a beautiful tight dress that was just above her knees.
For a moment she thought it wasn't really the right outfit to be in the hill, but it was Kara, her Kara, and she was like that, always beautiful no matter what.
There was a telescope facing the stars and a blanket on the ground with a beautiful meal on it. Kara had to assure her that it was not her who had cooked and so not to worry, she laughed.
So they began to eat their meal, Kara never took her eyes off Lena while serving her a glass of wine.
Lena could see Kara's stress rising so she took both her hands, brought them to her lips and gently kissed them, and finally told her that she loved her and gave her a big smile, which instantly reassured Kara.
Then, when Lena finally decided to ask Kara what the telescope was pointing at, she explained that it was pointing at a planet full of diamonds and that thanks to the WD, she had been able to go there today, which is why she hadn't seen it all day.
Lena didn't quite understand, so she asked Kara if she could look through the telescope. And there Lena's heart leapt into her chest, her throat closed, she swallowed and suddenly felt paralyzed with happiness and surprise. She had known and hoped for a long time that Kara would propose, but this was beyond belief, Kara was magic, she thought.
From the lens of the telescope, Lena could see Kara's laser beams inscribing her simple words on another planet billions of kilometers away:
Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?
Lena turned around, emotion overwhelming her and tears of joy beginning to flow, and saw Kara, one knee on the ground, a small box open on a ring surmounted by a magnificent diamond, this time verbally asking her the question she had just read through the telescope.
Lena was expecting this question, thinking she was prepared for it, and yet the wave of emotion that overwhelmed her was so intense that it took her breath away.
But she pulled herself together and threw herself into Kara's arms to put her lips on hers, answering a big yes between kisses.
Of course I want to be your wife Kara Danvers Zor-L she replied.
And between kisses, Kara had to explain to him that her diamond came from the planet in question, since nothing on earth could come close to the ankle of the woman she loved.
