"Man, the stars are really shining tonight" Kara said as she approached Lena on the grass. Lena looked at her startled "Yeah, they truly are." Kara looked over her shoulder and saw Winn and James give a thumbs up through the glass, Kara rolled her eyes. "Do you mind if I sit?" Lena's heart was beating out of her chest and her face was starting to turn red, "be my guest." Kara sat down next to Lena accidentally brushing her hand against Lena's outer thigh, they both got chills. "So why are you stargazing out here when there's a whole party in there?" Kara asked, trying to break the awkward silence. "I don't know, I guess I'm trying to take my mind off some things" Lena said as she looked down at the grass. "Uh... you possibly wouldn't want to listen to my stupid problems instead of hanging out with your friends." The brunette said as she looked over her shoulder at the blonde who was starring at the stars. "Damn how could anyone be this beautiful," Lena thought. "I don't mind, I'm not much of a partier anyways." Lena took a second to decide on if she really wanted to spill her guts to Kara. "I'm just having problems at home with my adoptive mother." Kara looked down from the sky and starred at the Luthor confused. Lena was starring at the grass trying to think about what to say next. "You're adopted?" The blonde mumbled, Lena looked up at her. "Yeah" Kara began to smile "I'm adopted too!" Lena smiled back at the blonde, maybe they have much more in common than she thought. At this point she put Lillian's repercussions of liking women behind her and focused all of her energy on containing her feelings for Kara. Once Kara saw Lena smile back, she nearly fainted "fuck it" she thought, no more denying. "So you're having problems at home?" Lena looked at the grass again "correct." Kara didn't want to pry "about what... I mean, if you don't mind me asking." Lena smirked on how cautious the blonde sounded, "it's fine. My adoptive mother, Lillian, doesn't really accept me. She doesn't think I'm a real Luthor and she always sticks up to my brother, Lex." Kara looked Lena the whole time, while the brunette starred at the grass. "That's why I'm here" Lena said as she looked up and made direct eye contact with Kara. Their faces were about one foot from each other. Kara could feel Lena start to breath faster and louder, Lena started to move in closer. Kara broke eye contact and started to stare at the ground, Lena closed her eyes "she doesn't feel the same, I knew it" Lena said to herself. "I'm... g-going to stay in a motel... so I don't have to go h-home." Lena said as she looked up trying to stop the tears of rejection from falling. "What?! No, you're not staying in a motel by yourself... You can spend the night at my place." Kara hesitantly put her hand on Lena's knee "I appreciate the offer Kara but I'm fine. I do it all the time and it's only for a couple hours." The Luthor said while grabbing Kara's hand on her knee. "Fine, I just don't want you to be alone." Kara said as she squeezed Lena's knee a little. "Maybe she feels the same, I mean the way she leaned in earlier. Kara, you dipshit, why did you pull away from her. Fuck, what do I do?" Kara said in her head. "Maybe...I could stay with you, just for the night... So you're not alone" Lena looked at Kara with the iconic eyebrow raise Kara always seen her do, "damn it Kara, why the hell did you do that?" Kara couldn't stop what she was thinking. "Kara, you don't have to" Lena said as she shook Kara's hand off her knee. "This party blows anyways, I'm coming with you" Kara said as she grabbed Lena's hands and pulled the both of them to their feet. "Are you sure? I don't want to ruin your night." Lena wanted more than anything to spend the night with Kara, but probably not the way Kara wanted. "To be honest, you'd be making my night" Kara said as she held Lena's hands in her own, Kara had already wasted one opportunity with the girl of her dreams, she was not going to let anymore go by. "Kara, you don't have to, I mean it. If you are just doing this because you are worried about me, you don't have to worry about anything. I'll be fine." Lena tried to give Kara a way out, tried to give her a safety net to land on. "No, I'm coming with you. I'm not taking no for an answer." Lena was oddly turned on by Kara's confidence. "Okay, we can leave now if you want." Kara couldn't believe it, she was going to stay the night with the Lena Luthor. "Okay, just let me find Alex and tell her I'm staying the night with Kelly." Kara couldn't wait. "Okay, just meet me at my car at 12?" Kara looked at her watch, 11:50. "Okay, see you at 12, Lee" and with that Kara turned and disappeared into the crowd. Lena watched the blonde go and sighed. "Lee? Maybe this won't be a bust." Lena told herself as she traced over where Kara's hand touched her thigh. "Maybe, she feels the same way."
