Summary:
The morning of the wedding.
Lena woke up with a strong but gentle arm wrapped around her waist. Alex had snuggled up behind her in the night. Lena smiled to herself remembering last night, the way Alex had been so attentive and so passionate as they made love. She was very much looking forward to many more nights like that one. She was about to fall back to sleep when the beep of Alex's phone alarm went off. Alex grumbled and turned over. Lena gave her a playful shove.
"Sleepyhead, your alarm on your phone!"
Alex opened her eyes, "uh? What?" Then she sat up and reached for her phone on the bedside table and turned off the alarm.
"Do we have to go to a wedding today? Can't we just stay in bed?" Alex smiled, she definitely could feel a headache lingering. Not exactly a hangover but not far off.
"Love, go back to sleep for an hour, I'll wake you after my shower," Lena said feeling some sympathy for her lover, especially after last night.
"Your the best," Alex smiled sleepily.
"I know," Lena smiled.
Alex pulled her pillow to her and closed her eyes.
Lena got up quietly and made her way to the bathroom. First she brushed her teeth then she took a shower. All the while she couldn't stop thinking about Alex, she was starting to think she was addicted to her, because she just wanted to be with her all the time. This was very un-luthor like she thought to herself, how will I cope when I get back to National City, when I'm working and she's working, when will we have a chance to be together, when will we make time for each other? But being a genius, Lena knew all obstacles could be worked around somehow. She was determined to make this work between them. And besides, now the DEO required her help more and more, she might see her a little more than she would have otherwise, even if it was in a professional capacity. At least they would see each other.
Lena stepped out of the shower and dried herself, then she looked into the mirror and combed through her wet hair. She was surprised when Alex stepped into the bathroom completely naked.
"Alex, your awake," her eyes raked over Alex's slender but muscular form appreciatively.
Alex winked at her, "See something you like?"
"Very much so," Lena caught her breath, then she teased, "if we weren't going anywhere today I would definitely be taking a closer look."
Alex stepped into the shower and turned it on, "I can't wait until later. I need a follow up to last night."
Lena smiled and walked over to the shower, she took in the form that was Alex Danvers as water ran down her beautiful body.
Alex had her eyes closed completely unaware that Lena was watching her, she started to soap herself up, starting at her shoulders, down and over her breasts and slowly across her abs until she reached the place between her legs. Lena started to stare at her longingly, she licked her lips involuntary. Right now she so desperately wanted to join Alex, because she was sure she could help, she gulped and shook her head, then she turned around and left the bathroom.
Alex heard her leave and once the door clicked shut she started to give herself some relief, she was so worked up still from the night before. It didn't take long at all to reach that high, she bit back the urge to cry out Lena's name while she thought about her. Afterwards she caught her breath and stepped out of the shower. When she walked into the bedroom with a bathrobe on she saw Lena sitting on the edge of the bed also still wearing her bathrobe, she had her phone in her hand and was reading something.
"You okay?" Alex asked.
Lena looked up from her phone and turned her head to look at Alex, "Yes, I was just checking my emails," Lena told her, "Jess my secretary is dealing with most of it but she sent me one this morning, I have to cut the trip short."
"Oh," Alex said a little disappointed, she was looking forward to more time away from everything with Lena, especially since they got together.
"I can hear the disappointment in your voice," Lena softly smiled and placed one hand on Alex's knee.
Alex felt the thrill of her touch, "I er, yeah, you got me."
Lena lent over and gave Alex a peck on the lips, "I am too. But work calls. Not yet though, but have to leave tomorrow."
Their eyes met and something unspoken went between them, a deep longing. Lena moved away and Alex let out a breath she had been holding.
Lena then stood and put her phone on the side then she walked over to the wardrobe and looked at the outfits she had brought with her for the wedding. There was a black pinstripe suit with a feminine cut, designer of course, and probably cost over two thousand dollars. There was also a black silk shirt that she planned to wear with it. She held both up to show Alex to get her opinion.
"What do you think?"
Alex's eyes went wide, it was a stunning suit, she could just imagine how good Lena looked in it and she certainly wouldn't mind seeing her wearing it, "It's gorgeous."
Lena smiled, "But should I wear it for the wedding? A suit or a dress?"
Alex stood and walked over to take a closer look, she took it out of Lena's hands, "I think you should wear whatever you want to," she touched the soft cotton, "this really is an incredible suit."
Lena took it back off her, "I'll show you the dress." Lena walked to the wardrobe and hung up the suit and then pulled out the dress. It was low cut at the back and the front, the length down to the knees and it was green. She held it up in front of her and smiled at Alex and raised her left eyebrow.
Alex was basically drooling and wondering how on earth she was supposed to choose between one and the other, both would look absolutely stunning on Lena, in fact she thought anything she showed her would, "Wow, that really brings out your eyes."
"That's why I like it, I love green."
"Honestly Lena, both are beautiful, just like you."
Lena put the dress back and walked up to Alex, "You charmer."
"I try," Alex smiled and pulled Lena into her, wrapping one arm around the smaller woman's waist, "It's really not that hard when I'm around you."
"See, your doing it again," Lena chuckled as she placed a kiss to Alex's cheek.
Well Alex was done with the teasing, she wanted more, she placed her mouth to Lena's and they both sank into a deep kiss. Lena was so tempted to take off Alex's robe but she held back. She sensed Alex was in the same predicament. They breathlessly drew back from the kiss and looked to each other.
"How are we going to last today?" Lena asked with a slight frown.
"We'll have to find some private spots, I'm sure we will manage, if not they will just have to put up with us kissing and touching each other."
"I didn't take you for an exhibitionist," Lena teased.
Alex laughed, "I think I would be with you, I can't seem to keep my mind on anything else but you."
"The feelings mutual," Lena said moving in to kiss Alex again.
They eventually managed to stop kissing and touching each other long enough to get dressed.
Alex was wearing a greyish blue suit, with a white shirt currently unbuttoned a few at the top. A matching tie was hanging around her neck undone. She stood with her hands in her trouser pockets and watched Lena pull on a pair of black stockings as she sat on the edge of the bed.
"You are trying to kill me, aren't you?" Alex smiled.
Lena chuckled as she slowly attached suspenders, her eyes occasionally flitting up to take in the sight of Alex's face watching her. Then she stood, "There, how do I look?"
Alex smirked, "Fucking beautiful."
Lena laughed, "You can have the pleasure of taking them off later."
Alex had to seriously hold herself back from doing that now, "I can't wait, can we get this over with now?" she whined with a crease in her brow. She was horny again and it was only 8am.
Lena looked at her while she slipped into her green dress, "Please tell me you took care of yourself in the shower?"
Alex instantly blushed and rubbed the back of her neck. She was looking anywhere else but at Lena.
Lena noticed her lovers embarrassment, "Seriously Alex? You fucked me silly last night and you're embarrassed?"
"Well…" Alex looked up sheepishly.
"Come over here and help me with my dress," Lena told her turning around.
Alex stepped over to Lena and pulled up the zipper on her dress. Then she placed a gentle kiss to her neck, "I did yes," she whispered.
Lena chuckled and turned around, "You are adorable do you know that?" She placed her hands on Alex's shoulders.
"And you are incredibly sexy," Alex replied moving in for another kiss. The kiss grew more passionate, and Lena was very glad she had not yet done her makeup. Alex's hands were on Lena's ass pulling her closer, Lena's hands were in Alex's hair tugging her down to her. Their mouths were joined, tongues dancing and after a while there was breathless panting. They pulled apart and brushed themselves down.
"If we get through today it will be a miracle," Alex said stepping away from Lena.
"I think your right," Lena replied, "but isn't it fun," she winked, it wasn't a question.
Lena then helped Alex with her tie, Alex put on her suit jacket and sat down beside Lena in front of the big mirror. Lena opened her makeup bag and took out some light eye shadow, black eye liner and bright red lipstick. Alex looked into her bag and took out her black eye liner, she didn't like to wear makeup that much, but she did like a little around her eyes. She added a little natural coloured eye shadow and she was done.
Lena looked at Alex, "Kiss me," she said with a sultry voice.
Alex turned on the stool to look at her, then she placed her lips to Lena's. They both sighed into the kiss and broke apart and Alex smiled at her, "You can put your lipstick on now, I hope its smudge proof."
Lena giggled, "Of course and water proof."
Lena finished off her outfit with a small black jacket and her black high heels.
Alex put on a pair of flat black doc martin shoes over her black socks.
They walked downstairs together and entered the dining room. There was a spread fit for kings and queens. Most people had already finished but Sam was sitting there drinking orange juice and looking a bit pale.
Alex started to fill her plate with bacon and eggs and Lena sat down beside Sam.
"Hey, how you doing?" Lena asked quietly.
"I'm fucking terrified," Sam replied.
Lena had to bite back laughter, then she put her hand on Sam's, "That's only natural, it's the biggest day of your life."
Sam's eyes were wide as she looked at Lena, "What if…"
"What if?" Lena asked gently.
Sam shook her head and closed her eyes, "It's just pre-wedding nerves isn't it?"
"Probably," Lena replied, "Are you having second thoughts?"
Sam nodded, her anxiety was in overdrive. She was also rather hungover.
"Oh Sam," Lena squeezed her friend's hand, "Do you love Jen?"
Sam opened her eyes, "Of course I do!"
"Do you want to wake up every morning to see her lying next to you?"
Sam nodded, "Yes, I can't imagine my life without her in it. I adore her. And Ruby loves her."
Lena smiled, "Then you have your answer."
"Wow," Sam let out a sigh of relief, "well you made that sound so simple."
"That's because it is," Lena let go of Sam's hand, "feel better now?"
"Much thanks, Genius."
Lena laughed, "Now can I get some breakfast before Alex eats it all?"
"Go ahead," Sam said sitting back in her chair and drinking her juice much happier now, "by the way," she stopped Lena.
Lena looked at her curious what her friend wanted to say to her.
"Alex looks so hot in that suit, my god have you struck gold."
Lena smiled, "I know I have, believe me."
Sam's eyes lit up, " Last night, did you?"
Lena just nodded and grinned.
"Yes!" Sam exclaimed.
Alex looked across the table having heard that part, "You okay Sam?"
Sam just nodded, "I'm good thanks to your girlfriend here."
Alex smiled, "Yeah, she's good at making you feel better."
"I'm hearing you both made each other feel good last night," Sam giggled.
Alex blushed and Lena looked at Sam, "Sam!"
"Sorry, you two are too easy to tease."
Lena sat down next to Alex after filling her plate with scrambled eggs.
Alex's plate was already half empty.
"So I have the hairdresser arriving shortly, you are both welcome to use her if you so wish," Sam told them.
"That would be wonderful, thank you Sam," Lena replied.
Alex wasn't so sure, she didn't like strangers messing with her hair. She had a regular who she always went to.
"What about you love?" Lena smiled as she stroked the back of Alex's hair.
Alex felt the goosebumps erupt on her skin, "I'm good thanks."
"Oh come on Alex, live a little," Sam smiled, "She's very good, she won't cut anything if you don't want that, she can just style it for you, it saves you the job."
"Fine," Alex replied with a sigh, Lena's hand was distracting her, then she took a sip of her coffee and Lena took her hand away.
Well, the hairdresser arrived on time. Alex went first, because Alex's was the easiest. She wanted it flicked back and not hanging loose like she did when she was out of the workplace.
The hairdresser did it perfectly, making sure Alex was happy with it before she went on to do Lena and Sam's hair.
Alex looked at herself in the mirror in the downstairs bathroom, her hair was tucked back so there was no fear of it falling loose later if Lena ran her hands through it. It didn't look any different to how she wore it at work really but she did get it shaved at the sides and the back where it was starting to grow back. So when she touched her hair there she could feel the stubble of the hair and it made her smile, because she knew Lena was going to go crazy when she felt it later. She adjusted her tie and made sure it was straight. Then she made her way into the living room to wait for the women.
When Lena finally walked in Alex had to catch her breath. Lena walked up and smiled at Alex. Her hair was slightly curled at the ends and hanging loose over her shoulders. Alex had expected Lena to have it tight and up in a ponytail.
"Lena, you look," Alex didn't have the words, "absolutely stunning." Alex's heart was definitely beating faster as she took in the sight before her.
Lena stood in front of Alex, "So do you, and," she took a closer look at Alex's shaved back and sides, "its hot," she almost growled the last bit in Alex's ear.
Alex bit her lip, her hormones in overdrive, "do you want to feel?"
Lena raised her left eyebrow at Alex and without another word she gently ran her fingers across Alex's shaved hair, starting at the back and coming around to the side, "I want you so much right now, if this was anywhere else you would pressed up against a door, or a wall, or bent over something," she whispered in her ear. Alex almost moaned out loud but stopped herself when Sam and the hairdresser walked in. They both stepped apart and tried to act innocent. They were not fooling anyone, especially not Sam.
"You two okay there?" Sam grinned.
Alex looked at Sam with her hair done up, it was loose but pinned at the sides, she looked absolutely beautiful Alex thought.
"Wow Sam, Jen is going to fall for you all over again."
The Wedding
Finally they were all at the church. Family and friends filled the aisles. Alex and Lena sat together near the front, holding hands. When Sam and Jen exchanged vows Lena let go of Alex's hand and took out a hanky from her handbag because she had to wipe a few tears from her eyes. Alex just smiled and imagined that was her up there exchanging vows with Lena. She knew it was way too soon for that, but if all went well, one day she wanted to ask her to marry her, because she was totally and completely in love with Lena Luthor.
