Kryptonian Nights 35

Deanlu

Supergirl is the property of DC comics and the CW. I am borrowing the characters for a little fun and storytelling. After All, what better way to show the love for hero's than to extend their adventures. I also ask for forgiveness. I have been very ill since the New Years. So I haven't been writing as much as I would love too. I am hoping to change that now.

"Yelp, yelp" Krypto's bark called out to Kara Danvers as she worked in the drive in the back cleaning the inside of the Lena's car.

"Shhhh, Krypto. They're both sleeping and need it. I'll get you something to snack on in a minute." Kara told the dog softly. Krypto raised up on his hind legs pawing Kara's legs softly with intent. She glanced over to the backyard where Lena and Alex lay in the two hammocks in the shade sound asleep. The day was perfect. Sunny, cool air, with a light breeze The Spring garden was in full bloom with Iris's, daffodils, hyacinths, tulips, and Brecks white pearl.

Both of the sleeping women were pregnant and in their eighth month. Kara had been highly attentive to both and very protective. The last few weeks had not been easy for either women. Lena's pregnancy was dangerous with the mix of human and Kryptonian DNA. She had been carefully monitored by an alien doctor they had found through Doctor Hamilton. Hamilton and the alien doctor, Bezruss, had watched as Lena's blood pressure rise steadily over the pregnancy. She was now on bed rest. Kara had personally carried her out to the hammock.

Alex had decided to do Invitro fertilization to conceive a child after her two attempts to adopt a baby had failed. So one night while Kara and Lena were relaxing Alex had come by to talk. She had shared with the two women what she had decided. Lena had been joyous right away. Kara had been a little reserved. The young Danver's sister worried that her sister was getting in too deep without support. However, after a long talk that evening Kara finally came around to her sister's news. She had one caveat. Alex would move in with Lena and her so they could be there if something were to happen. Alex had argued at first, but even Lena had agreed it would be a wise idea. So three weeks after, Lena had bought a house in a quieter part of National City near the National City botanical park. Five bedrooms, three and a half baths, large back yard, large family room, chef's kitchen with large dining room, two labs, private offices, and an artists room for Kara and many more accouterments that they all liked. Alex had tendered her resignation to the DEO and been hired on by LCorp in biomedical research. Strangely, Brainy had agreed to stay on with the DEO and J'onn had been hired back by the new President.

Kara had been endlessly protective of her sister and wife. She had learned to balance CATCO reporting, Supergirl duties, and taking care of the two young women. Too say it had not been easy would be an understatement. Midnight craving runs, foot massages, a scare when Alex fell down a flight of stairs in her fifth month, Lex making another attempt on Lena in her third and seventh month, plus all the bullshit had Kara exhausted. She knew it would be even more difficult after the babies came. James's sister though had been stopping in quite a bit since Alex had become pregnant. Quite a bit! So maybe, just maybe there was someone who would invest in Alex in the long run. Her sister deserved an assertive, strong, loving women. She hoped James sister was the one.

"Come on." Kara moved across the lawn and into the house. She scooped Krypto's food into his bowl. She then check his water making sure it was filled. She moved to the sink and washed her hands. Once done she pulled out two small plates from the cabinet. Then moved over to the refrigerator and pulled out several vegetables and fruits. She quickly cleaned, cut, chopped and made up a fruit and vegetable plate for each of the women. She added some humus and two bottles of water. She then quietly moved outside setting the plates on a nearby table. She had covered the plates. Kara then moved off to the side where her chair and table set with her laptop booted up. She began working on her new article.

"Kara?" Lena called out causing the young reporter to rise and kneel next to her. Kara noticed that Lena was shivering, but she had a feeling it wasn't from the cold.

"Hey, I am right here. What's wrong?" Kara asked as her arms wrapped around her wife. Lena burrowed into the young reporters neck whimpering attempting to hide herself. "Hey..hey. It's okay. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere." Kara attempted to reassure her wife hugging her tightly.

"I had a dream that Lex... killed you. He took...our baby and imprisoned me. She grew up hating us Kara. Lex turned her against us." Lena cried as she spoke.

"Shhh, that is not going to happen. We have taken precautions against that Lena. Trust me. I will be here and our baby girl will be safe. I promise love." Lena nodded even as Kara reassured her. The young super kissed her head softly. "All will be okay. You need to come over to the table and eat love. You haven't been giving the baby enough lately. Come on." Kara helped Lena stand and sit at the table. She then woke and retrieved Alex. Both women sat and ate talking softly as Kara worked online. The young reporter stopped for a moment and just watched the two women. Lena's nightmare had let her go with her conversation with Alex and Kara's reassurance. The snack was helping along with the water. She would continue to assuage their fears and protect them. When you loved your family you did what was necessary.
