CHAPTER 2

Lena pov

"So, are you going to tell Kara tonight?" Alex leans against my locker after school, her bag slung over her shoulder, ready to leave school behind for the weekend. In the week since I came out to Alex, she has been extremely supportive checking in with me every day, keeping up normal conversations to reestablish our friendship, and reaffirm the fact that my coming out won't change anything for the negative.

"I don't know. I want to tell her, but it seems like not the best idea to awkwardly blurt it out in conversation." I shut my locker after triple check I have all the school books I will need for the weekend.

"I thought you might use something like that as an excuse. Don't worry Lee I got you covered." She smiles, giving me a side hug before heading out the double doors, leading to the student parking lot.

"Wait Alex, what does that mean? Does this mean you're finally going to start joining Kara and I for movie nights again?"

"Hm. I guess you'll just have to wait until tonight to find out." She shrugs shooting me a smirk as she goes. I can't help the smile on my face as I watch a little of the Alex, I've missed these past months peak back through.

"Do you want to come to movie night with me?" I ask Lex as I shrug on a jacket getting ready to leave for the night. "I think Alex will be there, and it's been a while since the four of us have hung out?"

"I can't this time. Dad is dragging me to National City for the weekend for a business trip combined with father son bonding time." This is the first time I look at him since he entered my room. He is wearing a blue button up with dark dress pants. A gray striped tie hanging loosely around his neck. His bright blue eyes pleading at me for help.

I start laughing before I even reach him. "You really need to learn how to tie a tie on your own, as the future C.E.O of LuthorCorp. I have to stand up on the tips of my toes to knot and adjust the tie properly. "I assume there is a business diner tonight?"

"Yep, we leave in about an hour."

"Lex you really need to learn how tie your own ties. Your sister has a life of her own. She'll have better things to do, than to sit around and make sure her brother has a straight tie before every meeting you may have." Dad comes into my room smiling. Clasping a hand on Lex's shoulder.

Lex laughs, "look at it this way, Lena's future husband will probably thank me for making sure Lena is able to tie the perfect tie."

I bite back my comment about how I could possibly have a future wife instead, but I'm not ready to voice that out loud, so I just laugh along. I'm not ready to tell them yet. I don't even know if I'm ready to tell Kara tonight.

"Would you like to come to the city with us? I always love to show off my kids." Lex gives me a hopeful look, knowing that Dad's bragging can get more embarrassing once he has a couple drinks in him.

"I have plans with Kara and Alex tonight, I'll come next trip?" I offer hoping my dad and brother aren't too disappointed that I'm declining their invite.

"Of course, Lena" dad hugs me.

"Since you're going to be gone for the whole weekend, can I spend it over at the Danvers'? I ask him as he is about to follow Lex out of my room.

He nods giving his permission with a slightly sad smile. I know he wishes Lillian could have a different relationship, but he knows that is simply because Lillian has no interest in having a relationship with me. So, he knows leaving us alone with each other for a whole weekend, is like begging to feuding countries to go to war with one another.

"Make sure you don't let that get in the way of your schoolwork. Be polite and grateful for their hospitality." He reminds me of these things like I haven't spent extended amounts of time with them on multiple occasions over the last four years, and like these people aren't my best friends. "Have a good weekend. I love you Lena."

"I will. I love you too dad."

"I'm so excited to have you over all weekend!" Kara squeals in my ear wrapping me in a tight hug, barely giving me enough time to walk through their front door.

"Me too. It's been to long since we've done something like this." Kara deposits my duffle bag on the couch for me. "Girls I don't feel like cooking tonight. I assume pizza is alright with both of you?" Eliza asks coming in from the kitchen. Kara and I nod in approval.

"Thank you, Eliza, for having me over for the weekend."

"No need to thank me Lena. You know you are always welcome here anytime you want." Eliza promises heading upstairs to make sure pizza is good with Alex.

Kara and I sit in the living room she is smiling wider than usual. She is bouncing on her heels.

"Do you want to sit down and tell me what's got you so excited or are you going to run a marathon instead?" I smirk up at her raising an eyebrow.

"I think I like somebody. I think I have a crush on someone. Like I think I have feelings for a boy. At this I have to hear more because Kara isn't a typical boy crazy teenage girl. So, I need to hear about this boy that has caught Kara's interest.

"Kara sit your butt down and tell me about this boy." I drag her down to my level on the floor. She is blushing and fidgeting with her glasses, looking down at het lap. I'm not going to get any real answers out of her on my own. "Alex, I need your help!" I call her over when she follows Eliza back down the stairs. "I'm trying to get her to spill which boy she likes."

"Oh, that's any easy one. The new kid Mike Matthews." Alex answers easily, sitting down next to me. Our hands brushing in the process and I try to ignore the spark in my chest.

"Alex that's not fair!" her face now a very deep red. I see her toss a pillow in Alex's direction; it grazes my arm, but I can't feel it. I can't focus on the words she is saying or Alex's witty comeback, because all I can focus on is Kara.

"Um… Kara you're literally floating." I mummer in amazement as I watch my best friend no longer touch the ground.
