Chapter 7
Alex's POV
I got back to my place and smiled when I saw Maggie sitting on my bed with just a bra and underwear on. She smirked as she saw me staring at her.
I threw my bag down on the ground next to my bed and took off my jacket. "Well hello there," I said with a grin. She smiled and pulled me down so she could kiss me. I let her push me onto my back and kiss my neck. She stopped though pretty quickly.
"You alright Alex, you're awfully tense," she said and sat up. I followed and sat up as well. "Today was… well today was awful actually," I told her and got up off the bed.
I walked over to my kitchen and grabbed a bottle of wine and two glasses, then brought them over to the bed. "What happened?" She looked concerned as I handed her a glass of wine.
"Lena figured out that Kara is Supergirl. I think Kara is going to have a rough time the next few weeks," I told her. Maggie almost dropped the glass she was holding.
"Lena knows! Good! Do you know how long I've hated sitting around and her not knowing that your sister is the woman that keeps sweeping in and saving her life," she said with a smile. "Lena didn't seem to be super happy to figure it out though," I said quietly.
Maggie reached behind her and put a robe on. Which not going to lie, was a bit disappointing to see her get dressed. "They will work through it… anyone with eyes can see the two of them are crazy about each other," she said and took a sip of her wine.
My jaw dropped. "How did you know Kara likes her?" I was in shock. I didn't know that Maggie knew that.
"You can just tell, the way they look at each other when they don't realise the other is watching." She said all this nonchalantly. I reached over and pushed some of her hair behind her ear. "You think Lena feels the same way about Kara?" I asked her quietly. She nodded. "I'm sure she does," she stated and then took the glass of wine in my hand and placed it on the bedside table.
"How about we don't focus on your sisters love life and instead we focus on our own," she said and pulled me into a kiss. And any and all thoughts of Kara and Lena were pushed from my mind as I kissed the most amazing woman in the world.
Kara's POV
I landed on my small balcony and walked inside.
The next day when I woke up I had a text message from an unknown number. It was from Emily. The girl I met at the coffee shop. She wanted to know if I would go out with her for drinks tonight.
I do need the distraction and I did enjoy talking to her the other day. I sent her a text telling her I'd love to go out for drinks tonight. I spent most of the day flying around the city monitoring everything and making sure everything was okay.
I only broke up two fights and stopped one robbery before it even actually started. I also noticed a statue was being constructed in the middle of the city, but it was being blocked off from the public. I could have used my x-ray vision, but I wanted to be just as surprised as everyone else.
As I was flying above it I noticed two people walking away from the construction site. Lena and Cat Grant. Cat is my boss at CatCo. Lena was pointing at something and moving her hands around as she must have been explaining something to Cat.
Just then I noticed James coming up behind them. I felt a stupid rush of jealousy as I saw him put a hand on Lena's shoulder.
I flew away and landed at my place to change and head to Alex's place. I walked up and unlocked the door. "Hey, Alex I nee- HOLY SHIT!" I yelled in horror.
Alex and Maggie were in bed and not wearing anything. Maggie was ontop of Alex. "KARA WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Alex screamed. I kept my hands over my eyes and just stood there. The last time this happened I walked right through Alex's door and had to pay to fix it as I literally tore it off the hinges.
I heard them moving around and prayed they were getting dressed. "You can look now Kara, we're decent," Maggie told me. I peeked out from behind my hands and saw that Alex was wearing sweatpants and a tshirt, while Maggie had a robe on.
"You really have to start knocking sis," Alex said quietly. I nodded in agreement. "I think I have a date tonight… and I need your help getting ready for it," I told her. Maggie looked up in interest.
"Right on little Danvers, you finally got her," Maggie grinned. Alex looked at her and rolled her eyes. "What's the girls name?"
"Her names Emily, I met her at the coffee shop not far from my place, we sat and talked for a couple of hours and she asked me if I wanted to go for drinks and I could use the distraction," I stated with a shrug. Maggie looked disappointed.
"So, what do you need help with? Clothes or something?" Alex asked curiously? I nodded. "I need help with clothes I guess… everything I own is bright and happy and I'm not really feeling that right now," I admitted. Alex's face softened and she came over and put her arm around me.
"We got you covered little Danvers," Maggie told me, and she walked over to Alex's closet. I smiled at that. I love Maggie. She's been really good for Alex. She pulled out a black leather jacket, plain black tshirt, and a pair of black skinny jeans,
"Put these on and straighten your hair, she won't know what hit her," Maggie said with a grin. "Thanks Maggie, I appreciate that a lot," I said with a smile.
I went to the bathroom and changed. Alex left a straightener out for me to use. Once I was finished, I walked out of the bathroom and Maggie whistled at me.
"Looking good little Danvers," she said lightly. Alex smiled at me as I awkwardly walked over to the door. "You look nice sis," she told me lightly. "Okay, I should go now." I waved as I walked out the door.
I arrived at the bar around 10pm. I stood outside waiting for Emily. I nervously adjusted my glasses and folded my arms.
"Hey there stranger," a voice called from behind me. I spun around and Emily's jaw dropped. "Wow you look amazing, like actually amazing," she told me as she walked closer to me.
"Let's go get a drink, then shall we?" I said and she followed me inside the bar. We went to a booth in the back and sat down. "I'll go get us some drinks," she said and got up to go over to the bar.
I ran a hand through my hair and looked around. The bar scene isn't really my place, but this is the kind of place I can picture Alex and Maggie coming too. It's a nice bar.
Emily came back to the booth and sat next to me, instead of across from me. "Here you go," she said and handed me a drink. One good thing about being Kryptonian is that human liquor doesn't really get me drunk at all.
"Thank you," I said and took a sip. I smiled at her. "So, how have you been the last few days?" She asked me. The last few days?
Well Lena found out that I am Supergirl. I almost died from that guy who kidnapped Lena. I shook my head. "I've been good overall, just been working. How have you been?" I asked.
"Great actually, I just got a promotion at work and now I get to work alongside the boss in the lab, well when she actually is there. My boss is a very busy woman," she laughed and took a drink. "So, what company do you work for anyways," I asked suddenly having a really bad feeling?
"I work for L-Corp," she told me. Of course, she works for Lena.
"You work for L-Corp… so when you say you work with your boss you mean…" I trailed off.
"I work alongside Lena Luthor, she's brilliant and very smart." Emily stated this like I didn't know that already. "She is very smart," I agreed.
"Do you know her? Wait of course you do, you wrote that article on her for CatCo didn't you?" She said quickly. I nodded.
"Yeah, I knew Lena," I said quietly. Key word being knew Lena. Emily reached over and put her hand over mine. "You are interesting Kara Danvers," Emily said lightly.
We talked for a few hours. Talking to her was nice. I didn't feel nervous after a while and could talk to her about most things. Everything was going great until they weren't.
Emily waved at someone as I heard the door to the bar open. Whoever said person was walked over to us.
"Hello Emily and Emily's, frien…" The person trailed off. I recognized that voice. I'd know that voice anywhere.
That was the voice of Lena Luthor.
