Lena was home alone as she poured another drink, she hadn't heard from Kara in almost three days and it was tearing her up inside, she knew something was bothering her, she just wished Kara would tell her what it was so she could fix it. She stumbled to her couch as she took a long swig, the alcohol burning as it went down her throat. She tried her hardest not to think about Kara, but no matter what her mind always went to her. She jumped when she heard a loud knock echoing throughout the apartment. She stumbled towards the door hoping it was Kara; she frowned when she saw Alex.

"Are you drunk?" she asked as she stormed pass her into the apartment.

"Please come in," Lena said as she closed the door. She grabbed the bottle of wine she had been drinking and carried it back to the living room where Alex was pacing.

"Something needs to be done about Kara," Alex said as she stood in front of Lena.

"And what pray tell do you propose we do," she slurred.

"I can't talk to you when you're like this," Alex snapped as she grabbed the bottle before storming off to the kitchen and starting a pot of coffee.

"Hey I was drinking that!" Lena yelled as she stood up, she nearly tripped over a chair as she made her way to the kitchen.

"Drink this," Alex demanded as she handed her a glass of water.

Lena frowned as she took a long gulp before setting it down.

"Have you talked to Kara at all?" Alex asked as she poured her a cup of coffee before setting it in front of her.

Lena began to cry as she shook her head no.

"Hence the drinking," Alex frowned suddenly feeling like a jerk.

"I'm going crazy wondering if she is okay," Lena cried out as she put her face in her hands.

"I'm sorry," Alex said as she sat next to her.

"I just wish she would let me in," Lena sobbed.

"I'm sure she just has to figure things out in her head first," Alex told her.

"Maybe," Lena sniffled as she took a small sip of the coffee.

"Hey I know my sister, she will talk to one of us eventually," Alex told her.

"And I know my girlfriend something is eating her up inside and she is scared to tell us," Lena snapped.

"Kara tells me everything," Alex snapped as she stood up.

Lena snorted as she tried not to laugh.

"What is your problem Luthor?" Alex demanded.

"Oh I have no problem," Lena told her.

"I know my sister," Alex defended herself.

"And I know my girlfriend," Lena shot back.

"This was pointless," Alex said as she stormed out leaving Lena alone with her thoughts.

James was at Catco working late when her heard a noise, he looked up trying to see if he could see the source, but nothing but darkness greeted him, he shrugged as he looked back down. He jumped when he heard a loud crash as he ran out of his office. "Kara?" he asked as he turned on a light.

"Sorry didn't think anyone was here," she mumbled as she sat down at her desk.

"Where have you been? Everyone is worried?" he asked as he took a seat across from her.

"Been around," she mumbled as she began looking through some notes she had written down.

"Have you talked to Alex?" he asked as he crossed his arms.

"Why would I?" she snapped.

"What the hell is your problem?" he asked a little annoyed.

"Excuse me?" Kara asked as she locked eyes with him.

"I get maybe something is bothering you but there is no need to act like this," James whined.

"Act like what?" Kara asked as she set the notes down and crossed her arms.

"Look I'm sorry you got hurt but you can't keep shutting everyone out," James told her.

"I can choose to act or feel anyway I want to," Kara told him as she stood up to leave.

"Kara please," James said as he grabbed her arm causing her to stop.

"Let go of me," she demanded eerily calm.

"Kara you need to talk to someone," James demanded.

"One last time let go," Kara warned him.

James sighed as he let her go, frowning as she stormed out.

Everyone minus Lena was gathered at the DEO, as they all sat in the conference room.

"Shouldn't we wait for Lena?" Winn asked as Alex stood up to speak.

"She's not coming," she snapped as she glared at the man.

"She just texted she was on her way," Winn said a little scared at the look in Alex's eyes.

"You didn't ask her to come?" Maggie scolded her.

"No I didn't," Alex defend herself.

"She's Kara's girlfriend she deserves to be here," Maggie said.

"I'm with Alex she can't be trusted," James whined.

"I didn't say I didn't trust her," Alex argued.

"Sorry I'm late," Lena snapped as she sat next to Winn while glaring at Alex.

"Well you're here now," Alex snapped back.

"Well if someone would have told me," Lena began.

"ENOUGH!" J'onn shouted causing everyone to jump including a few agents who were passing by.

"Sorry," Alex and Lena mumbled.

"Alex you were going to say something," J'onn said as he sat back down.

"I think Lena should speak," Alex mumbled as she sat down next to Maggie who smiled.

Lena looked startled as she stood up, "I think something is scaring Kara and she may be scared to tell us."

"Why would she be scared to talk to us?" Winn asked.

"Because we all look to her to be the strong one and sometimes she's not," Lena told them. "She has weaknesses like we do and she gets scared and vulnerable and we need to accept that."

"Couldn't agree more," Alex spoke up.

Lena have her a small smile, "she obviously needs space, and time to process things, so the best we can do is let her know we love her and will be there for her anyway we can."

"Agreed," J'onn said as he stood up. "Anyone want to chime in?"

Everyone shook their heads no as he nodded before taking his leave.

"Hey I'm sorry about earlier," Alex told Lena as she grabbed her arm.

"It's okay we both love her," Lena waved her off with a smile.

Alex just nodded as she followed Maggie out the door.

No one noticed Kara outside listening in a sad smile on her lips.

It was pass midnight when Lena finally got home, she had decided to go to L-Corp and get some work done before heading home. She kicked off her heels as she started the shower, she undressed as she let the warm water wash over her. She wrapped a towel around her as she stepped out, she looked up when she thought she heard a noise in her bedroom, she rushed out to find the curtains moving, she frowned as she dropped the towel, and she smiled when she saw a note on her pillow.

Lena,

I heard what you said and you're right I am scared and I'm not sure how to talk about it just yet. Please know that I love you more than anything and I will be okay.

All my love, Kara.

Lena quickly got dressed as she crawled into bed, she pulled Kara's pillow close to her as she fell asleep.

Kara kept watch over her all night.
