A few months have gone by and in that time Kara hasn't really gotten Lena to open up about anything. All she knows about her is that she has really unique ideas and designs for technology. She just wished that Lena would let her in and not keep pushing her away. Kara also isn't happy with Alex because she doesn't approve of their friendship and would rather Kara drop the whole thing entirely.
"She's a Luthor, Kara. We all know what Lex has done to your cousin. What's to say she won't do the exact same thing? Just be careful and don't tell her you're from Krypton either. Not now. Not ever," Alex ordered. Kara just rolled her eyes and walked away from her sister instead of trying to defend her friend. She was annoyed that not even her sister would try and trust her. Without taking a backwards glance, she headed into the school.
Her locker was only a few feet from the first class of the day, and when she entered Lena was drawing something. Instead of walking over to talk she went to her desk at the back of the room. The green eyed girl looked behind her and was puzzled for why Kara ignored her. She had saw her in the corner of her eye go to her desk. 'Why did she ignore me? Did I do something wrong?' she asked herself.
Before she could go and ask, the bell rang, signaling that class was starting and no one could get up unless permission was granted. Mrs. Striker saw that Lena was actually on time today and was quite shocked.
"Did your mother force you to finally come on time today? I was beginning to think she never got my voicemails," she joked. The entire class was then filled with laughter as all the students turned their eyes toward the Luthor. Kara felt sorry for her, and decided that she would talk to her after class. Only because she wouldn't be able to talk to her until third period.
"Actually, I decided to get here on time for myself because I'm tired of everyone thinking that I'm like Lex. My mother, who does not concern you, has nothing to do with this decision," Lena retorted. Silence filled the air and not one person talked until the bell rang for the class to be dismissed.
As soon as the bell rang Kara leapt out of her seat and went after Lena. She wasn't that far ahead so she gently grabbed her arm to get her attention. After the green eyed girl turned her way she let go.
"I'm sorry for not talking to you when I first got in the class. I had an argument about you with Alex. It's solved now, I hope," Kara apologized. Lena gave a small smile in reply, but didn't want to talk because of onlookers. The kryptonian then saw they were being watched as well and let go of her arm. She gave a small smile and then turned away, trying to get prying eyes away from the scene before them.
Lena let out a sigh, grateful for Kara getting the attention off of her. She entered Mr. Hawthorne's class and sat down in her seat, grabbing her binder and folder out of her black bookbag. A moment after almost everyone was seated, Kara walked in and approached the Luthor.
"That was really embarrassing. After I walked away, three people came up to me and asked if I had threatened you. I didn't know what to say so I stayed silent and I guess they took that as an affirmative," she whispered.
Lena smiled at the scared and shaken Kara and decided to let down her walls for the moment. She knew that this would be the first time since they've known each other for Kara to actually see her real smile.
"It's okay Kara. It will most likely die down and not turn into anything," Lena reassured.
The kryptonian then let out a sigh of relief and her eyes lit up out of nowhere.
"This is the first time you've ever smiled at me! And not any of those small smiles either. Here I thought I'd never get you to do anything," she joked.
Lena stayed silent for a moment, not wanting too much attention drawn to them again.
"I just don't want you to worry about me. This is nothing compared with what.. nevermind. You should just go and sit down before the bell rings," Lena suggested.
Kara nodded in agreement and turned away, taking a huge breath. When she sat down all eyes were on her, including Mr. Hawthorne's. She internally groaned knowing people were going to start asking her questions. Questions she herself probably wouldn't know the answers to.
'And what was Lena going to say before she suddenly stopped mid sentence. Was there something she wanted to tell me?' Kara thought.
