The Sawyer/Danvers clan has conditionally been released from the DEO but quickly realize their one bedroom "love nest" is no place to raise a family! How are they going to solve this problem AND adjust to being new parents AND keep their sanity intact? Cue the 'Super-fam'!


After retrieving their daughter from the mess hall, Maggie and Alex had headed to the medbay to both check on the agent's recovery and hopefully get some insight into their daughter's unique genetic makeup. Eliza had excused herself to spend some time in the labs with a promise to join the trio later that afternoon and Kara and Lena had slipped away with a mumbled excuse after promising to do the same.

Alex sat on the medbed with barely contained amusement as Rowan had climbed onto her lap warily tracking the doctor's every move. It would seem that extreme protectiveness was in fact a Kryptonian trait after all. Hamilton knelt to remove the brace and stocking from her leg, and Alex couldn't help but hiss in response. Even with all the medical advancements being used on the limb, it was still extremely tender to the touch. Her reaction did not go unnoticed by her daughter.

"No!" Rowan exclaimed, batting the doctor's hand away. "You hurt my Ieiu." The toddler explained, wrapping her little arms protectively around Alex's torso.

"It's okay, baby." Alex assured her, holding in her laughter at the offended expression on the doctor wore! "She didn't hurt me, my leg is just a little sore. Dr. Hamilton is making it feel better."

Rowan turned, eying the doctor suspiciously. "Pwomise to be nice to my Ieiu, Doc'or Hammy?"

Hamilton blushed at her nickname but nodded sagely. "Yes, I promise to be nice to your Ieiu. Can you sit with your Mama for a minute while I look at her?"

"Kay." Rowan chirped before pecking Alex's lips and reaching her little arms out for Maggie.

Maggie stepped forward and scooped her baby up, settling the child lightly on her hip. She had been observing the scene from the other side of the room basking in the mutual affection between her fiancée and daughter. It would seem Rowan would give Kara a run for her money in protecting Alex! Rowan circled her arms around Maggie's neck and rested her head against her mother's collarbone as she watched the doctor treat her Ieiu.

Maggie did her best not to feel jealous of the bond Alex seemed to have with their daughter. The pair were drawn to each other and the closer they got, the more she knew that it was the right decision for Alex to step down, for the agent to be the one to stay home with their child. Even if Maggie had elected to stay, she wasn't sure her daughter would be okay with watching Alex walk out the door and leave her behind. Before long, Hamilton was helping Alex readjust her brace and standing the agent up. Alex limped over to her family slowly and Rowan almost launched herself out of Maggie's arms to get to her!

"Hey, babygirl! Where's the fire?" Alex joked as she hugged the child close to her. She, too, had recognized Rowan's clinginess but wasn't sure what to do about it.

"What's fire, Ieiu?" The little one asked, ever curious in nature. She was truly a Danvers, Alex mused. But as the child cocked her head to the side just so, the Sawyer in her came peeking through!

"Something you don't need to worry about yet." Alex assured her before turning the child towards Hamilton. "Can we tell the doc thanks for taking care of us?"

While Rowan had been preoccupied with what the doctor was doing to Alex, technicians on the other side of the medbay were able to discreetly scan the child. The MRI would have to wait; as everyone was sure Rowan would NOT be up for such a restricting test, having just escaped one metal tube. Alex had been able to draw a small amount of blood, but the tantrum thrown afterwards quickly deterred another attempt.

"T'ank you Doc'or Hammy." Rowan mumbled around the Supergirl pacifier she had just popped in her mouth. Both mothers knew they should wean her off it at some point but seeing as Rowan was barely two days old, figured they had some time to conquer that particular challenge.

"You're very welcome, Rowan." The doctor replied with a sincere smile, as smitten as the rest of them with the happy toddler. "Why don't you take your Ieiu home so she can get some rest and I'll see you both soon, okay?"

"Kay!" The toddler beamed as she struggled to be set down. When Alex complied, she quickly grabbed her hand and then Maggie's before she began trying to drag them to the door. "Come on Ieiu! Come on Mama! Let's go home!"

Both women wisely followed, steering the child left when she wanted to go right knowing the little one was ready to go home but had no idea where that actually was!

"So bossy..." Alex muttered to Maggie with a smile. "She definitely gets that from you."


An hour later, the trio had made it back to their apartment without incident, Alex riding in the backseat with their daughter while Maggie drove. They had worried that Rowan would be nervous in a car but the toddler had been endlessly fascinated by the sights zooming past her window, asking a continuing stream of questions!

When Kara had mentioned she and Lena had gotten Rowan a car seat, the younger Danvers had forgotten to mention the design of said seat. Alex had balked when she opened the door to her very sleek, very intimidating black SUV to find a garishly bright red, blue and gold Supergirl booster in the backseat! It was everything the agent was not and she was even more put out by the fact that her daughter seemed to love it.

"Look, Mama!" She pointed excitedly to Maggie. "So pretty!"

"Yes it is, Mija!" Maggie agreed, barely hiding her amusement at the disgusted look on Alex's face. "Isn't it pretty, Ieiu?" She asked, nudging her fiancée with her elbow.

"Oh, yeah...it's...it's something..."She managed to stammer out. "You like it, babygirl? Kiki got it for you."

"Yeah! It's the best!" The little girl crowed as she clamored across the boring black interior to plop into her seat, dragging Ice Cream by his cape behind her. She played with the straps for a while before holding her hands out with a sad look. "Help, Mama?"

"Of course, baby." Maggie quickly buckled the little one in, finding a Supergirl sippy cup filled with juice conveniently in the booster's cup holder. "Kiki thought of everything..." she muttered to Alex with a smile.

Maggie pulled the SUV into their buildings garage only to be greeted by a moving truck blocking both their spaces! "What the hel-I mean heck is going on here?" She muttered, fully aware that little ears were always listening. Just as she threw the car into park and hopped out, Kara's beaming face appeared around the other side of the moving truck.

"Maggie! Hey! You guys are back early..." Kara fidgeted with her glasses before nervously twisting the hem of her sweatshirt as two burly movers continued working behind her.

"Kara, what is this? And why do those guys have our couch?" Maggie gestured angrily towards the truck.

"I'm afraid that's my fault, Maggie." Lena appeared beside Kara looking more casual than the detective had ever seen her though she was sure the jeans and white tee shirt the heiress wore were designer. "We were hoping to surprise you."

"Surprise us with what?" Alex asked, limping over with Rowan on her hip.

"Well, Lee and I were talking last night about all the stuff you guys were gonna need to take of our munchkin," Kara started explaining, reaching out to tickle her niece gently. "And, Rao is it like, a TON of stuff..."

"Kara..."

"Oh, right, so we started making a list and then we realized there's no way all that stuff was gonna fit in your place so..." She trailed off, nudging Lena lightly.

"I hope we've not overstepped," Lena began, looking bashful. "But, Kara and I, we found you...a new place."

Both Alex and Maggie stared at the pair open-mouthed, trying to grasp what they had just heard. The tiny Latina was the first to speak up.

"You found us a new place?"

"Yes."

"Overnight?"

"If you don't like the idea..." Lena began but was quickly cut off by the strongest hug she could remember getting that hadn't come from a superhero!

"Thank you, Little Luthor." Maggie whispered against her shoulder before pulling back. "I don't how you did it but thank you."

"Of course, of course." Lena nodded quickly, trying to keep the tears at bay. "Shall we go see it?"


The apartment that Lena had seemingly pulled out of thin air was better than anything either Alex or Maggie could have imagined. It was a spacious three bedroom with large bay windows, a chef's kitchen and a secure elevator that could only be accessed through a doorman. Not to mention, a balcony large enough for a certain superhero to land on. Lena, Kara and their movers had managed to get the majority of the couple's belongings moved that morning and the pair had one more surprise in store.

"Really, Kara?!" Alex fixed her sister with a playful glare as they stood in Rowan's room staring at a plethora of Supergirl merchandise, including bedding!

Just as the sibling's began bickering, Lena's phone rang and she excused herself to answer it. The call was over fairly quickly, Jess was simply checking on the move, and Lena was propped up against the counter, absentmindedly scrolling through her emails when a tug on her pant leg drew her attention. She glanced down to find the newest, littlest Danvers staring up at her. Apparently, the toddler had tired of the debate over her room décor and had wandered off to find someone who wanted to play.

"Hello little one." She smiled sweetly at the child, marveling at the resemblance she bore to both her parents.

"Up!"

"Excuse me?"

"Leelee up!" Rowan demanded, tiny arms raised then added belatedly, "p'ease?"

Lena couldn't deny such an adorable request and quickly scooped the child up. As soon as she was settled on her hip, Rowan tucked her head under the woman's chin. She yawned widely and snuggled closer with a sleepy smile. The CEO couldn't help but smile as well. She'd never considered herself to be good with children, had scarcely been around any since she was one herself.

A few minutes into their cuddle session, Alex came limping furiously down the hall with a panicked expression! She relaxed visibly when she spotted Lena settled into their plush couch with a dozing toddler on her chest.

"Oh, thank God!" She sighed, slumping down next to them. "Lena, this place is too much! We couldn't possibly-"

"Alex, please." Lena freed a hand from beneath the sleeping toddler to stop the agent's objections. "I own the entire building. Helping my friends get an apartment for their new family is hardly an imposition."

"Thank you." Alex was truly touched by the gesture. "We had no idea when we would find the time to apartment shop."

"I assumed as much." Lena replied with a small smile.

As soon as she had left the DEO the night before, Len had called Jess and had her compile a list of all her real estate holdings in National City. It turned out one of L-Corp's newly acquired subsidiaries had several refurbished apartment buildings in their portfolio. When she saw there was one 15 minutes from the DEO and 10 from NCPD headquarters, she knew she'd found the one.

She also knew the pair would never allow her to give them the apartment outright so she had made sure that the asking price was far lower than it should have been. Of course, Alex and Maggie knew she'd pulled some strings but they were grateful Lena had at least attempted to set some boundaries.

By the time she had met with the pair for breakfast that morning, her lawyers were drafting the paperwork for the sale and finding a loophole in the pair's current lease so they wouldn't be penalized for moving out early. It had been Kara's idea to get the couple's things moved as soon as possible and it had taken all of Lena's persuasiveness to keep the super from moving everything herself!

"I had no idea you were so good with kids." Alex mused with a small smile as her daughter snuggled contently with the younger woman. "You're a natural."

"I'm not sure if acting as a 'body pillow' requires any natural talent!" Lena mused with a quiet chuckle. She immediately glanced down to ensure she hadn't disturbed Rowan.

"Of course it does." Alex argued, nudging her shoulder good-naturedly. "It means she's comfortable with you."

"Perhaps." Lena agreed with a shy smile, reveling in the thought. "But what about you? As I predicted, motherhood suits you."

"You think?" Alex wrinkled her nose in contemplation, a blush rising quickly to her cheeks.

"I do. I've seen you with Kara and Ruby. You, Alex Danvers, were destined to be an amazing mother."

Alex ducked her head in embarrassment as she reached out to caress her daughter's face, pushing back a wayward curl that had fallen against her cheek. "We'll see if she agrees with you once she turns sixteen..."

Lena chuckled, hand quickly going to Rowan's back to secure the child as her chest shook in laughter! "Oh, Alex. I'm afraid every girl hates her mother at sixteen. It's a rite of passage!"

"Great," the agent muttered with a bemused smile. "Maybe she can stay with her 'Leelee' for awhile then...just until she graduates high school..."

Lena hummed noncommittally as Alex laid her head on her shoulder, reaching over to rub her daughter's back. "We'll see..." she murmured, echoing the agent.

The pair continued to chat quietly about a variety of things from Sam's test results to L-Corp's newest merger and even Ruby's latest soccer game until Alex, too, drifted off to sleep against Lena. This is how Kara and Maggie found them some time later.

"Wow, Little Luthor," Maggie gasped with mock dismay. "Both my girls? You've got game!"

"Have you been sitting out here like this the whole time?" Kara asked with a tender smile as she approached the trio.

"They were so comfortable...and I didn't want to disturb them..." Lena explained, rambling slightly and blushing furiously.

Maggie rescued her from her embarrassment, giving her a tender smile as she bent to gently remove Alex's brace. As a testament to her exhaustion, Alex didn't react to the movement, nor when a soft blanket was draped over her legs. Rowan was already contently wrapped in Lena's blazer.

"Since you're on 'cuddle-duty', Little Danvers and I will get some lunch started," Maggie offered as she pressed a tender kiss to both Alex's and their daughter's foreheads. "Are you sure you don't want me to-?" She reached out to take Rowan but Lena quickly declined.

"No, no, it's quite alright." She assured the worried mother. Maggie nodded her agreement before dragging Kara towards the kitchen.

Kara allowed herself to be led but not before snapping a few pics of the trio to send to the 'Super-friends' once everyone was finally introduced to Rowan later that night. Lena rolled her eyes good-naturedly before returning to her phone and emails, content in her 'cuddle-duty'.


"Lena..." A warm hand on her shoulder alerted her that, much like her charges, she too had drifted off. Lena opened her eyes to find Kara hovering over her with a gentle smile.

"Rowan?" She asked sleepily, realizing quickly that the child was no longer curled against her chest. She noted absently that Alex, too, had been moved, leaving her alone on the couch.

"She's in the kitchen with Maggie and Eliza. I put Alex in bed since it seemed like she won't be waking up anytime soon." Kara informed her as she stretched her sore limbs.

Lena nodded her understanding as she took Kara's offered hand and allowed herself to be pulled to her feet. She followed Kara to the kitchen, her mouth instantly watering at the smells wafting out.

"Something smells delicious." She remarked, growing hungrier with each step.

"I can't take any credit," Kara laughed as they entered the kitchen. "I just made a quick run to Noonan's."

"Oh!" A sudden though struck Lena. "We forgot to bring the food!"

Kara nodded before confirming with a laugh. "We forgot to bring the food. Don't worry, Winn and James agreed to clean out the fridge before they come over later."

"Thank goodness," Maggie piped in from the table where she was preparing her daughter's lunch. "This little one eats like her Kiki!"

Kara laughed again loudly, only to be shushed by a scowling toddler! "Kiki no," Rowan scolded her in a stage whisper. "Ieiu is sneeping."

"I'm sorry baby, I'll try to keep it down." She assured the child, fighting to keep a straight face. Rowan nodded her approval before tearing into her chicken nuggets and fries!

"If I didn't think she was Alexandra's daughter before..." Eliza mused; noting the disapproving scowl her grandchild wore was a tiny replica of Alex's 'Agent Danvers' face.

"Yeah," Maggie agreed with a fond smile. "She's definitely got Ally's expressions."

"But those dimples?" Kara poked the baby's cheek gently, causing her to giggle. "The dimples are all you Detective."

Maggie blushed at the compliment but before she could respond she heard a lopsided thumping from the hallway. "Babe?" she called out.

"Yeah?" came the grunt of a reply.

"You okay?" She called back, already rising from her seat.

"Ummm..."

Maggie didn't wait for the rest of Alex's excuse and hastened down the hall to their new bedroom, her fiancée's brace in hand.

"There it is, " Alex sighed when Maggie entered the room with her brace. "I thought I lost it and I didn't want to have to tell Winn."

"How would you lose a brace?" Maggie wondered aloud, gesturing for Alex to sit on the bed so she could slide the brace back on.

"You'd be surprised..." Alex mused with a snort. "How long was I asleep?"

"A couple hours," Maggie hummed, pressing a gentle kiss against her fiancée's knee before rolling her pants back over the brace.

"Did I miss anything?"

"Just me and Kara trying to put that damn racecar bed together!" Maggie snorted as the pair headed back to the kitchen.

"You built it without me?" Alex pouted adorably!

"No, babe, I said we tried!" Maggie assured her with a laugh, attempting to kiss the agent's pout away. "Apparently, furniture assembly requires a PhD, so you and Lena can have at it."

"Serves you right for starting without me..." Alex grumbled, still not placated in the least.

"I'm sorry, baby." Maggie cuddled closer to Alex as they walked. "I promise from here on out, nobody but you gets to put things together!" Before Alex could respond, a little voice called out to her.

"Ieiu!" Rowan squealed, ketchup smeared all over her face and hands. "You wakes up!"

Alex couldn't maintain her grumpy demeanor when her baby girl was looking at her like she hung the stars. "Yeah baby, I woke up."

"Did Kiki wakes you?" Rowan asked, narrowing her little eyes at her aunt. "Kiki was too loud!"

Kara nearly inhaled the pot sticker she was eating and Lena thumped her back to little effect as she herself was doubled over in laughter! Eliza tried to muffle her laughter as well, not wishing to encourage her granddaughter's 'bossy' streak. Maggie didn't even try to hold her laughter, though she did have a brief flash of panic when she thought forward to Rowan's teen years.

"No, baby, Kiki didn't wake me up." Alex assured the child with a chuckle. "But she is noisy!"

"Hey!" Kara protested once she could breathe again.

After the laughter died down, the family settled in for a quiet lunch. Rowan insisted that she sit by both her Mama and her Ieiu, spending most of the meal offering them her soggy fries. Alex had choked down a few because she couldn't stand how sad their daughter looked when she refused but soon convinced Rowan that she was just too full to eat anything but her own food. Kara introduced her niece to the wonders of pot stickers than immediately regretted the decision as she was now forced to share her favorite meal!

Lena watched the little family before her with envy, surprised and a little pleased, when Eliza began grilling her about her most recent projects. She couldn't help but wonder if this future could be hers? If she could have family dinners with Eliza, a beautiful child with dark hair and piercing blue eyes? All she had to do was get through to one stunning, oblivious Kryptonian.


The night ended with the new parents snuggled into their oversized bed with an adorable toddler sandwiched between them. Eliza had gone home with Kara to allow the little family some time to acclimate. Winn and Alex had managed to put Rowan's new racecar bed together, complete with Supergirl sheets and bedding, but neither parent was prepared to actually make her sleep in it.

At least not yet.

After a memorable family bubble bath in their new over-sized tub, the trio had donned comfy jammies and settled in for the night. Alex was currently halfway through her third reading of Where the wild things are, Rowan listening with rapt attention in yet another pair of Supergirl pj's, marveling at the variety of voices her Ieiu used to bring the story to life! Maggie too had to admit she wouldn't have guessed her fiancée was capable of such vivid storytelling. It seemed motherhood brought out parts of the agent that even Maggie hadn't seen. Kara had assured her that Alex was the best babysitter, once she'd warmed up to her of course, and Maggie could see it now watching how tenderly the agent cared for their daughter.

"Alright, babygirl," Alex addressed their daughter as she closed the storybook. "That was the last one. Now it's time for little girls to sleep."

"No, Ieiu!" Rowan pouted little arms crossed over her chest. "I not tired!"

Alex did her best not to laugh at the display noting how much their daughter looked like Maggie in the moment. "If you're not tired we're still gonna lay down and rest our eyes. It has been a very long day and I'm tired, Mama is too."

Not liking Alex's offer, Rowan quickly turned to her other mother. "Mama, you not tired, is you?"

Maggie chuckled at their daughter's insistence on having her way, doing her best not to give in to the big brown eyes staring up at her. Alex's eyes, the eyes she could never say no to. She pulled the baby into her lap, wrapping the blankets tight around her as she leaned back against the headboard.

"I think Ieiu is right babygirl. Let's rest our eyes a little, hmmm?" Rowan seemed unconvinced but did lay her head on Maggie's chest while still clutching Ice Cream tightly.

Before the toddler could protest further, a soft melodic sound filled the room. Maggie recognized the tune as a Kryptonian lullaby that she'd once caught Alex singing to Kara when she was recovering from her battle with Reign. The effect was instantaneous as Rowan began relaxing against her, eyes locked on Alex with pure adoration. The agent shifted closer, wrapping an arm around Maggie's shoulders as she continued to sing their child to sleep.

If Maggie wasn't in love before, she was surely done for now.

The detective laid her head on her fiancées shoulder and mused how wonderfully full their life currently felt, how thankful she was for their 'found family'. James, Winn and J'onn had come over to share a delicious dinner Eliza had whipped up and to help finish the move. Both younger men were instantly enamored with their new niece, having already brought her gifts. James bought her a toy camera, which showed different pictures of the city inside the lens, and Winn, predictably, made his gift, a tiny replica of Alex's new suit so the little one could be just like her Ieiu!

J'onn was also deeply enjoying being a Grandpa, sneaking Rowan candy when he thought no one was looking and scooping her into his strong arms when the little one was about to get in trouble with her parents. His protective streak was adorable, even if it did mean there were currently DEO agents posted at their front door and outside the building.

"Just until we put this Reign business to bed." He assured them with a fatherly smile before kissing Rowan on the forehead on his way out.

Maggie knew he was right and her suspicions were confirmed when Alex agreed without hesitation. As much as they believed Rowan was a blessing, they also knew the twisted science that had gone into her creation. She knew that Alex nor Eliza nor Lena would rest until the mystery of their daughter's birth was solved. That the DEO wouldn't rest until Reign was brought to justice. It was overwhelming and terrifying to think about what they may find and Maggie quickly banished the growing dread as she snuggled closer to her girls.

Alex was just finishing her song and Rowan was completely knocked out, mouth drooping open and limbs limp. Maggie maneuvered the baby to lie between them as she and Alex settled in for the night, shuffling beneath the covers as smoothly as possible so as not wake Rowan. When they were both lying on their sides, Maggie reached over their daughter to cup Alex's cheek.

"I love you." She whispered with a watery smile. "Thank you for this. Thank you for her."

Alex blushed, turning her burning face slightly away. "I love you, too. Both of you." She responded with more confidence.

"Getting soft on us Danvers?"

"Always Maggie." Alex whispered as her eyes slipped closed. "Always."
