It had been a week since the two women spoke; both were still upset by the way the other had acted. Both Winn and Alex watched them from across the room as they shot subtle glances towards the other before turning away.
"We need to get them talking again," Alex whispered to Winn.
"Agreed," the man replied.
"You take Kara, I'll take Lena," Alex whispered as they both separated and walked towards one of the women.
"Hey Alex," Lena mumbled as she glanced towards Kara before looking back down at her tablet.
"Lena," Alex replied as she sat across from her.
"You called me Lena?" Lena asked confused as she set her tablet down.
"Well that is your name," Alex said sarcastically.
"What's your play?" Lena asked as her eyes narrowed.
"I know you miss Kara and she misses you," Alex told her cutting straight to the point.
"I do but she acted really immaturely," Lena said as she picked her tablet back up.
"In her own little Kara way she thinks she is protecting you," Alex told her. "Is it wrong? Yes, but she loves you to damn much to care."
Lena frowned as she set her tablet down as her eyes searched for Kara's; she smiled when she saw Kara was already watching her.
"Thanks Alex," Lena told her as she walked towards the caped superhero.
Meanwhile across the DEO, "what's cracking blondie?" Winn tried to act causally as he walked over to Supergirl.
"Alex sent you to talk to me, didn't she?" Kara asked as she glanced towards Lena who was talking to her sister.
"She did yes," Winn answered.
"I'm fine," Kara assured him with a smile that didn't quite reach her blue eyes.
"Hey we're besties you can tell me anything," Winn assured her.
"She really hurt me when she said those things," Kara told him as she tried not to cry.
"Do you think maybe you also hurt her by not letting her help you? Or by taking her phone?" Winn asked as he saw Kara frown as he spoke.
"I'm just trying to protect her, if Lillian is the one who took me and captured that alien, what the hell do you think she would do to Lena?"
"Well tell her that," Winn argued as he pointed towards Lena who was already watching them.
Kara smiled at her as she turned to Winn briefly," thanks Winn." She said as she walked towards the CEO.
"Hey," Lena said with a sad smile.
"Hi," Kara replied.
Alex and Winn shared a high five as they both returned to work.
"I think we need to talk," Lena said.
"I can fly us home?" Kara offered.
"That would be great," Lena smiled as she took Kara's offered hand.
Kara landed with a thud inside her apartment as she led Lena inside; she turned on a lamp before super speeding to her bedroom to change.
Lena sat on the couch as she waited for her to get back, she gave her a tight smile when she reappeared, and she sat beside her as she turned towards her.
"I'm sorry," Kara said sadly as she handed Lena her phone back.
"I am too, I shouldn't have said what I said," Lena told her as she set her phone on the coffee table.
"Did you mean it?" Kara asked as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Of course not sweetheart, I was hurt and angry and I lashed out," Lena said as she wiped away the tears that fell from Kara's eyes.
"I never meant to hurt you, I just couldn't bear it if something happened to you because of me," Kara cried out.
"Hey deep breaths, its okay," Lena whispered as she rubbed Kara's back.
"I can't lose you Lena," Kara whispered as she wiped her eyes.
"You won't baby," Lena told her as she got up and grabbed some tissues before handed them to Kara.
"If Cadmus was the one to take me, "Kara began as it finally dawned on Lena what she was so worried about.
"Hey I will be careful I promise," she assured the hero as she took her hands.
"That's all I ask," Kara said as she sniffled some more.
"Hey nothing is going to happen to me," Lena told her as she kissed her forehead.
"I trust you," Kara told her as she kissed her hands.
"Good," Lena said with a smile as she kissed Kara's cheeks.
"I just love you so much," Kara whispered against Lena's lips.
"I love you just as much," Lena told her.
"Can we just promise to just always be straight forward with each other?" Kara asked.
"Deal," Lena replied as she and Kara shook hands.
Both women giggled as they fell back into the couch tangled in each other's arms.
"I'm glad we were able to work this out," Kara said as she kissed Lena's forehead as Lena got settled on top of her.
"Me too," she replied as she listened to Kara's heartbeat.
"Are you hungry?" Kara asked as her stomach grumbled causing Lena to laugh.
"A little," she replied as she got up and walked towards the kitchen.
"I can make something," Kara said as she watched Lena open the fridge.
"I love you sweetheart but you can't cook," Lena told her as she took out some ingredients.
Kara pouted as she sat at the table and watched her girlfriend flit around the kitchen.
"And all done," Lena said as she placed a plate of food in front of her girlfriend.
"This smells amazing," Kara said as she dug in.
"I guess you we're hungry," Lena teased as she took a bite of her salad.
"I didn't eat much today," Kara admitted as she kept eating.
"Me either," Lena replied as she took a sip of her wine.
The two fell into an awkward silence as they continued eating; Kara cleared the dishes as Lena made her way towards the bathroom, "mind if I take a quick shower? I've been working a lot."
"Sure go ahead," Kara said with a smile as she rinsed off the dishes before setting them in the dishwasher.
Kara sat on the couch and thumbed through her Netflix que as she waited for Lena to return, she smiled when she appeared wrapped up in a towel.
"Do you happen to have some pjs I could borrow?"
"Oh so you plan on staying?" Kara teased as she walked pass her into the bedroom.
"If you want me to," Lena replied as she dropped her towel.
Kara turned around to hand Lena the clothes; they fell from her hands as her mouth dropped open.
Lena smirked as Kara's mouth opened and closed as she tried to form words.
"Ummm ummm here," Kara managed to get out as she bent down to grab the clothes; she tried not to stare as her fingers grazed Lena's as she took them.
"Thank you," she smiled.
Kara could only nod as she blushed bright red before hurrying out of the room.
Lena just laughed as she got dressed.
Kara sat on the couch as she tried to get her heart rate back to normal, seeing Lena naked had made her nervous, sure she's seen her naked a dozen times, but somehow tonight felt different. Maybe it was because it had been so long, she wasn't sure, but she knew she definitely wanted to see and feel more.
"Kara darling are you alright?" Lena asked as she opened the bedroom door.
"Fine," Kara replied as she stared at the wall.
"Why won't you look at me?" Lena asked sadly as she leaned against the doorframe.
Kara slowly stood up as she walked towards Lena; she locked eyes with her as she pulled her into a fiery kiss, both women moaned as their tongues slid against the others. Kara picked Lena up as she carried her to the bed; she laid her down gently as she crawled on top of her.
"I've missed this," Lena moaned as Kara left kisses up and down her neck.
"Mmmm me to," Kara replied as she pulled off Lena's shirt as she tossed it blindly behind her.
"I like this side of you," Lena smiled as she pulled off Kara' shirt.
"I just missed you so much," Kara told her as she pulled off her sweats, she then stood up and pulled off her own followed by her underwear.
Lena watched with rapt attention as Kara crawled back on top of her, she left trails of kisses over every inch of Lena's body causing the woman to moan in pleasure at the sensations running through her. Kara left kisses all over every inch of Lena's body as she took her time.
Lean moaned as she came undone under Kara's ministrations, "oh God!" she screamed as she collapsed on the bed.
Kara smiled as she crawled back up next to Lena, "are you okay?"
"Holy hell that was amazing," Lena moaned as she pulled Kara into a kiss to start round two.
