Conversations on a Balcony
92
A/N: Hi Lovelies, I'm focusing on trying to get my Kalex story "And a Bottle of Rum" finished so just a very quick update. If you haven't seen it, I've also posted the first two chapters of a new SuperCat called "Life's Little Lessons." Go check it out!
Strolling out onto the penthouse's living room balcony, Alex glanced casually around. "Hey Cat, Kara? You out here? Did you get my text mess... OH MY DEAR GOD!" She spun; hands clapped over her eyes. "I have sunspots... I'm blind... and fuck me, do you do that out here all the time?!"
Cat laughed softly as she ran her hand along Kara's bare thigh. She was mostly dressed and curled around her deeply sleeping and very naked wife, barely maintaining a semblance of modesty for her. Covering up the high spots, so to speak. "If you don't want to see something you don't want to see, Alexandra... maybe wait for a response to your text message?" Her face sobered then. "Kara has been in pain and this is the first good sleep she's getting in a while. I didn't have the heart to move her."
Alex immediately flipped into doctor mode, making her turn back around and see her sister as a patient, not as a woman enshrouded in post-orgasmic somnolence. "What kind of pain?" she asked softly. "The same as her last pregnancy?"
"Back, pelvis, same as last time," the older woman confirmed. "But she's also had some cramping and a little bleeding last night."
Alex nodded as she moved closer and took a seat on one of the chairs. "Not unusual but... maybe we should do an ultrasound, just to make sure everything is ok."
Cat nodded her agreement. "We talked about that and Kara was going to call you."
"Good," the director nodded.
Just then a quiet voice spoke up. "Please tell me that this is a dream and that I'm not actually lying... naked... on a rattan couch in front of my sister?"
"Hush," Alex chuckled. "I've seen you naked a ton of times so just go back to sleep."
Kara just nodded and nuzzled her wife's chest before firmly closing her eyes and relaxing against her again.
"Can we come in tomorrow?" Cat asked softly as she dropped a little kiss on the Kryptonian's head.
"First thing in the morning," the director confirmed. "Have her fast after ten tonight so I can do some blood tests too."
"She's not going to be happy about that," the older woman chortled. "Be ready for hungry, pouty face."
"I heard that," Kara muttered.
And Cat just laughed and snuggled her closer.
