Conversations on a Balcony

115

A/N: I was feeling kinda angsty today so… but makeup sex is awesome and NSFW!

Kara was sitting on her office balcony, coffee in her left hand, a red-ink pen in her right, a printed article on her lap and a box of donuts beside her on the couch. It was a warm and sunny day, and she enjoyed the breeze as it lifted her hair a little.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?!" Cat roared as she stormed out onto the balcony and practically threw a newspaper at her wife's head.

Despite her super hearing, the hero got such a fright that she fumbled her coffee and dropped it onto the printouts in her lap. Luckily there was only a small amount left in her cup and it didn't do too much damage. "Fuck! What?! What the hell, Cat?"

"I asked first," the CEO replied, her voice tight and teeth almost gritted.

Kara sighed and set everything down on the coffee table. Then she picked up the newspaper and turned it around to the front page. "Oh shit."

"Very eloquent," Cat snarked.

"Supergirl and her child spotted playing tag and blowing up rocks in the Mojave Desert," Kara murmured as she began reading the article. "Over the past few weekends, Supergirl and her daughter have been seen, through satellite images, playing together in southeastern California, supporting the superhero's obtuse statement about her last pregnancy not being her first. The child appears to be a girl, approximately five to six years old and seems to have at least some of the same powers as her mother."

"I told you to be careful!" the older blonde exclaimed. "What about this is careful?!"

Kara stood slowly, holding her hands out. "Cat, there's no way I could have known that this would happen. I was careful to keep both of us below radar. I didn't know that anyone was taking satellite images of the area."

"YOU SHOULD HAVE!" Cat roared again.

The hero drew back, her face and eyes cooling as her temper snapped, but she managed to maintain an even tone. "You need to go until you've calmed down, Catherine."

The CEO took a step closer to her wife, pointing at her chest. "Spare. Room."

Kara didn't back down and closed the distance between them with a step of her own. "My. Pleasure."

Cat sighed as she looked at the clock. It was almost midnight and Kara hadn't come home yet. And it wasn't just that she was out patrolling. Kara's car wasn't in her parking space, which meant that she was staying away. Earlier in the evening, Cat had found two freshly pumped bottles of milk in Liv's crib, but the hero hadn't stopped to say anything when she'd super-speed-dropped them off. She sat on the bedroom balcony for a while, looking at the city lights and kicking herself for being so hard on her wife, now that she really had calmed down, but she got up when she heard the front door close and keys land on the table by it. A moment later, the spare bedroom door snicked closed.

Cat knew she'd fucked up and tears welled in her eyes. Normally, even on the rare occasions when they were fighting, Kara would stop to check on the kids. X-ray vision was the method of checking tonight, the CEO guessed. She walked slowly up the hallway and stopped outside the door for a moment, before tapping lightly and then opening it. Kara had her back to the door and was in the middle of getting undressed.

"Kara…"

"Get out, Cat."

The older blonde sucked in a shocked breath. "Kara… I… Can I…"

"I said get out." Kara's voice was low and controlled but Cat could hear the pain in it.

"Kara. I was wrong to blame you. I was just so upset and…"

The hero whirled around, eyes glowing. "I said get out! Don't you understand that you HURT ME?! How could you blame me like that for something that I had no control over? Do you think that I would put our child's life or identity in danger purposefully?!"

"Of course not!" Cat replied. "Kara, Sweetheart. You're an amazing mother…"

"I KNOW!" the hero yelled. "I've almost KILLED for them."

The words hung in the air between them for a long moment as their eyes stayed locked, Cat's devastated and Kara's furious.

"I'm so sorry," the CEO whispered. "Kara… I'm so very, very sorry."

Kara's eyes slowly cooled, and she looked down, swallowing hard. "I need you to believe in me, Cat. If you don't anymore… we can't be together."

Cat's chest clenched so hard that it forced a whimper out of her, and it was all she could do to stay standing as a wave of dizziness crossed her vision. "Kara," she whispered, reaching out as the shockingly sudden panic attack took her to her knees and her breathing started to come in ragged pants.

Her wife was across the room and holding her a split second later. "Baby, I've got you," she said gently. "Just breathe, ok? It's ok. I'm not going anywhere."

Cat managed to reach up and caress the younger woman's cheek, even through her hyperventilation. "I… always… believe… in you."

And then her brain rebooted.

When Cat woke, she was in their bedroom, warm and comfortable in their bed with her beautiful, naked wife wrapped around her.

"I'm sorry," Kara said quickly. "I'm sorry I pushed you away like that. I was angry and hurt and upset and I didn't mean it. I could never leave you, Cat."

"I'm sorry too," Cat replied quietly. "I was so afraid that someone was going to figure out Abby's identity and take her away from us. After everything we've been through, I just panicked. I should NEVER have blamed you, Baby. I'm SO fucking sorry."

The hero chuckled softly. "We're both idiots," she stated.

"I think maybe I'm a slightly bigger idiot than you are," Cat sighed.

"That could be possible," Kara deadpanned but then laughed when her wife pinched her in a sensitive place. But then the pinch turned into something gentler and teasing, and Kara closed her eyes. "Cat, that was a bad panic attack. You need to rest, Honey."

But her wife was already sliding lower against her body and her mouth closed around Kara's nipple as her hands gripped her hips and eased her onto her back. The sweet taste of milk coated her tongue as Kara moaned softly. "I'm ok," Cat murmured as she looked into darkening blue eyes. "Unless you don't want to?"

"I want to," came the whispered reply and the older woman smiled as she ducked her head and slowly traced her tongue around the defined outline of her wife's abs. She kissed every inch of soft skin, teasing her tongue into Kara's navel and making her giggle a little.

The Kryptonian's thighs parted, and Cat eased between them, turning her head to spend some time kissing and biting playfully as she guided Kara's feet to press onto her shoulders.

Then she dove, feasted and groaned softly as her wife's hips lifted to press into her mouth. Cat reached up blindly and found Kara's milk-laden breasts, very gently caressing their sensitive buds with her palms in time with the lashes of her tongue against her swollen clit.

"Cat… inside… please," Kara gasped, and she closed her eyes and tipped her head back as her wife's right hand left her breast and caressed down her body. Then two fingers were slipping inside her, and she moaned loudly.

Cat gasped and briefly lost her rhythm as the structures inside Kara gripped her fingers and fluttered against them. It never ceased to amaze her, no matter how many times she'd done this, and she fluttered her fingers in return, making Kara groan loudly again. The groan ended in a little growl and the throbbing between Cat's own legs doubled its pace.

She slowly kissed her way back up Kara's body, still thrusting inside her and rubbing her clit with her thumb. She wanted to look into her wife's eyes. To see the love and joy and heat in them. And it was there, and she couldn't look away. "I don't think I've ever told you this before," she said, punctuating the words with little kisses to the hero's lips. "But, with Liv, I really, really wished I could get you pregnant myself. I'm so fucking close right now just from making love to you that I wish I could just empty myself inside you."

"Fuck, Cat," Kara gasped, hands coming up to cup her wife's cheeks. "Strap on."

Cat grinned and a split second later, the younger blonde had the straps and buckles and double ended toy firmly in place around the older woman's hips. Cat playfully pushed her back onto the bed and lay on top of her, teasing the toy slowly through Kara's wetness as she slid one end inside herself. Then she lined it up and kissed Kara deeply as she slowly sank inside her.

Cat was already so close, she knew she wouldn't last long so she began slow, gentle thrusts to stave off her own orgasm and to bring her wife back to her peak. Kara's hands closed on her ass cheeks and encouraged her to go faster.

"I'm not sure I can stop myself from coming," Cat whispered.

The Kryptonian grinned. "It's not going to matter believe me. I'm about to explode. Harder, Cat, faster."

The older woman nodded and upped her pace, her breathing picking up too as Kara clenched around the toy and it became harder to thrust. Kara realized and suddenly flipped them over, taking over the work from her wife as she leaned down to grab her breasts and kiss her deeply. She bit and tugged on Cat's bottom lip as she rode her harder and Cat's moans got louder and breathier. "Kara… Kara…" she said desperately, and the younger woman smiled beautifully.

"I need to see you come," she groaned. And Cat obliged, tumbling over the edge into an orgasm that tore a ragged, broken cry from inside her soul.

Kara leaned down and gathered her wife into her arms, holding her tightly as she came around the toy, hips jerking as she gasped and whimpered through her pleasure. "Oh… Rao… I love you, Cat. I love you so fucking much."

"I love you too, Baby," the older blonde replied, body trembling uncontrollably as the tears came and rolled down her cheeks with heaving sobs. "I'm sorry, Kara."

"Shhh… no more apologies. We're ok," the hero smiled, tightening her arms just a tad. "We'll always be ok. I promise."
