Lena knows Kara is Supergirl. Lots of fluff and rambles. I don't think I'll have any smut, but I'll keep the rating just in case. Thoughts are italicized, yada yada enjoy! =]
Kara got the "tingles" every time the woman touched her. Her and Lena had grown closer over the past few months, and the brunette had easily become her new best friend. However, the feeling she had for her best friend, made her feel guilty. Rao, she shouldn't be trying to suppress whimpers whenever Lena put her hand on her arm, leg, or so much as hugged her. It was bad enough she was a naturally clumsy person when she wasn't in her Supergirl persona, but Lena Luthor would be the death of her.
They had gone out for dinner to Noonan's and Kara was consuming her usual amount of potstickers while Lena ate a salad with kale, of course. The blonde had been intently listening to the CEO's description of her new project and the pushback she received from some shareholders. The project was meant to help aliens and humans live together without divulging any personal information about the aliens, but a few of the shareholders accused her of having the same ideals as Lillian Luthor. Upon hearing this, Kara was appalled and launched into a ramble saying how pure Lena's intentions were.
Lena was truly touched by how passionate the Kryptonian was, and she was always amazed by how much trust the other woman put in her. "I mean how many times do you have to prove to them you are good and not like your…your bully of a mother! They must be so blind that," and the Kara's voice trailed off. Lena stopped listening when she noticed the blonde had bent her fork and hadn't taken a single breath during her entire rant. The CEO reached forward and laid her hand on her best friend's hand that wasn't holding a deformed eating utensil. She took note of a red flush creeping up Kara's neck and onto her face. "Kara sweetie," Lena chuckled, "I love how much you believe in me and how passionate you are, but please breathe. I can't have you passing out on me." She smiled at the blonde.
Oh Rao her hand is so soft, that feels good. "Right! Breathing is good because breathing makes the world go round. Or technically multiple universes," she rambled on whilst adjusting her glasses and fidgeting in her seat, "Or multiple Earths. There are some alien species that don't even breathe. They're not fish per say, but they definitely don't need to breathe like we do and I'm doing it again aren't." Lena just sat there with an electric smile on her face. She withdrew her hand and resumed eating her salad when she heard a tiny sound, similar to a squeak? She looked up to see Kara's face bright red. The Kryptonian opened her mouth to speak when her phone for Supergirl rang. "I'm sorry Lena I have to take this." The younger woman nodded, "Duty calls, I understand. Go save the town."
Kara ran into an alley, changed into her Supergirl attire, and flew off towards the conflict. Oh Rao! I can't believe I whimpered when Lena took her hand back. She just felt so warm, so soothing. Her smile really lights up the room. I wonder how many smiles her mother stole from her. Kara vowed to make sure she gave Lena as much happiness as possible, not realizing she ran into a few buildings on her way.
Lena was sitting in her office going over lab reports while simultaneously watching the news, anxious to see what conflict Kara/Supergirl would be deescalating now. The superhero was just finishing the scene when Lena noticed drywall debris in the woman's hair. She was merely helping put out a burning building; no casualties or injuries were involved. The brunette turned up the volume to listen in, "Supergirl! Thank you again for saving the day! What happened inside the building, you appear to be carrying pieces of the building on yourself." Lena smirked when she saw the normally stoic superhero blushing on national television. "Well you know, sometimes building structures weaken during fires or explosions, but thankfully no one was hurt as we all worked as a team," Kara maintained her stance with her hands on her hips and her chest puffed out.
"Yes, but why did you show up at the scene with drywall on you Supergirl? If I may-" with a nod from Kara, the news reporter pulled drywall from the blonde's hair. It wasn't small enough to easily miss, but it wasn't large enough that it would have smacked her in the head if she turned. Kara's face remained neutral, but she put her hand to her ear as if listening to an earpiece. "Please excuse me, duty calls!" And just like that, the Kryptonian goddess flew off into the air most likely on her way to the DEO.
Lena chuckled to herself realizing that her best friend was clearly distracted when she left dinner and must have run into some walls. She remembered Kara's reaction to her holding her hand and how much she blushed. She was truly falling for the woman and maybe that was a sign that Kara had similar feelings too.
