Summary:
Supergirl to the rescue!
Alex held Lena in her arms in the back seat of the SUV with a blanket wrapped around them. She couldn't quite believe it, they had kissed and now they were basically cuddling. And although it wasn't the ideal situation to be in right now she took comfort from the small things.
Lena rested her head in the crook of Alex's shoulder, blissfully aware of the strong warm arms that were wrapped around her, she could definitely get used to this.
"Lena?"
"Mmm?"
"The other night when you fell asleep."
"Yes"
"I wanted to ask you, if you would like to go on a date with me sometime," Alex told her and waited anxiously for her response, because right now she hadn't a clue where they were heading, after all they had only kissed.
Lena sat up in Alex's arms and smiled, "I would love too."
"You would? I mean, I can't promise much, I'm on DEO money," Alex was still worried about being out of her league.
Lena smoothed her hand down the side of Alex's face, "Alex, it's the thought that counts. I am sure I will love whatever you decide to do, or wherever you decide to take me. You could take me to the zoo and I would be over the moon."
Alex leaned into her touch and closed her eyes, "You are amazing."
Lena closed the gap and kissed Alex on the lips, "No, you are amazing. My brilliant Dr Danvers."
Alex opened her eyes, "I think you are the first person who's called me that."
"It's kinda hot, being with a doctor," Lena said softly then placed another kiss to Alex's lips.
"You have a kink. Who knew?" Alex said playfully nuzzling her nose against Lena's.
"Actually," Lena smirked, "Director Danvers is my kink, that uniform you wear…," she paused, "So hot."
Alex felt her face go warm and her nether regions were not far behind.
"Really?"
"Yes, really, remember all those times in the lab?"
Alex nodded and looked to Lena's sparkling mischievous green eyes.
"I had a fantasy, you and me," Lena began and stopped a little unsure if she should reveal so much so soon.
"Go on…" Alex was interested to know all about Lena's secret fantasies and especially if they involved her.
"I have this fantasy of you taking me over your desk."
Alex gulped and Lena blushed.
"Well it would be a cheap date," Alex quipped once she got over the initial thrill of what Lena had suggested.
Lena slapped her arm playfully, "So Director Danvers, tell me one of your secret fantasies."
"Are you sure we should be talking about this when were half naked?" Alex smirked.
Lena raised an eyebrow at Alex, so Alex continued.
"Okay, I used to imagine us both, in your office," Alex admitted and when she didn't elaborate Lena gave her the luthor eyebrow again, "and well, were up against a wall."
Lena felt the warmth spread through her, this was definitely a good way to keep warm, she thought to herself, the only problem was she was getting incredibly turned on.
They sat in silence for a while and then Alex turned her head to the right side and rubbed the car window where it had steamed up, she looked out, it had stopped snowing for now, but it was dark. The only light was reflecting off the snow. Lena was snuggled tightly into her under the blanket. Alex's back was starting to ache from the position she was in.
"Babe," Alex used the term of endearment without even realising it, "can we change positions?"
Lena sat up and had a thought, "Why don't we put the back seats down, it would be a lot more comfortable if we could lie down, especially if we are here until the sun comes up."
Alex agreed and with Lena started to push the seats back and when it was done they took some sweaters out of their suitcases to use as pillows.
Once they were comfortable under the blanket Alex rested above Lena and reached her hand to Lena's hair, running her fingers through it as she looked into her green eyes.
Lena sighed softly into her touch, "That feels nice."
Alex moved closer and kissed the brunettes cheek, followed by a soft kiss to her lips.
Lena closed her eyes and placed her hand in Alex's short hair at the nape of her neck, then she kissed Alex back until they were both a little breathless.
"I wish we had done this sooner," Alex smiled at Lena.
Lena pulled Alex down on top of her and kissed her, "Mmm me too."
Warmth spread through them both in their very intimate position, Alex on top of Lena, breast to breast. They started to let their hands wander, in places they hadn't dared explore before. Alex's unzipped her trousers and pushed them off, Lena followed, soon they were lying together wearing just their underwear.
"Nice boxer shorts," Lena smiled into Alex's lips as her hand squeezed the redheads butt.
Alex moaned while sparks shot through her from her head to her toes.
They continued to kiss more passionately, Alex's hand reached the apex of Lena's thighs, she pressed against the fabric of the brunettes underwear and Lena let out a moan of pleasure.
Then Alex removed her hand and sat up abruptly.
"What's wrong?" Lena asked breathlessly looking at Alex's worried face.
"I can't do this, I don't want our first time together to be in the back on this car." Alex ran a hand through her hair and then rubbed the back of her neck.
Lena was literally drooling at her arm muscles now as she saw them flex before her.
"Your right," Lena told her reluctantly, as much as she wanted Alex, she wanted to do it right, "back to plan A?"
Alex looked puzzled for a moment then realised she meant trying to stay warm without having sex, "Sure." Alex relaxed.
They both lay back down and once again Alex became the big spoon because if they were not facing each other at least they couldn't kiss, the only problem being her breasts were now pressing against Lena's back and Lena could feel Alex's nipples hard against her skin. Lena tried to remain calm but her heart was racing.
Alex reached her strong arm around intending to place it on Lena's stomach but Lena took Alex's hand and placed it on her chest.
"Your making my heart race Director Danvers, can you feel it?" Lena asked her.
Alex placed a kiss to the back of her neck then whispered, "If we were anywhere else right now I would…"
Suddenly there was a thud outside of the car.
"What was that?" Lena's eyes went wide, she now had visions of a big grizzly bear outside the car and very hungry.
Alex was already sitting upright and grabbing her gun from the rucksack, "Stay down," she told Lena.
Alex slowly moved towards the car window and looked out just to see two big blue eyes staring at her naked torso, "Kara?"
Lena sat up, very much alert, "Did you say Kara?"
Alex looked to Lena and then back at the window speechless, she quickly covered her chest with her arms as the blush rushed to her cheeks.
Supergirl opened the door and cool blast of air made Alex and Lena shiver.
"Ewwww, no...Why are you naked?" Supergirls eyes were wide in shock.
"Er…" Alex started to explain as she scrambled to put her t-shirt on but she was interrupted by her sister, "And where is Lena?"
Kara bent her head into the car and looked for Lena, then she saw the brunette sitting up with a blanket wrapped around her with a sheepish grin on her face.
"Lena! Oh Rao!"
Kara looked away quickly and frowned, "I don't know what you two have been up to and quite frankly I don't want to know. But Sam called me. She was worried about you both, seems like she didn't need to worry! Looks like you were warm enough."
Kara rambled on to herself, then she glared at Alex, "And with my best friend Alex!"
Alex shrugged, now pulling on her trousers and boots. Lena was pulling on her clothes and for the first time feeling a little embarrassed, this was not how she wanted her best friend to find out she was seeing her sister. If she was, I mean they haven't even talked, all they did was kiss, and touch a little.
Kara then stepped away from the car to give them both privacy. She stood, arms folded, waiting for them both.
Lena chuckled at the absurdity of their situation and Alex passed Lena her t-shirt from the front seat while raising her eyebrow at her, "I'm glad you find this amusing but I am never going to hear the end of this."
"Sorry," Lena said as she pulled on her t-shirt and tried to bite down her laughter.
Alex frowned, she was definitely not taking this very well and Lena could tell.
Once they both had their sweaters on Alex went to get out of the car but Lena stopped her with her hand, "Hey, it will be okay."
"This was not how I wanted Kara to find out about us," Alex told her seriously. Because Alex Danvers always wanted to do things properly, and nothing about their situation was proper.
"Are you ashamed of me?" Lena looked serious now too, her lack of confidence came back, she couldn't stop it, it was due to years and years of being told she wasn't good enough.
Alex took a hold of Lena's hand, "Of course not," she took the brunettes hand to her lips and kissed her fingers, "Don't ever think that."
Lena relaxed a little, "Okay, but Kara does not look happy."
"She will be fine, she's just surprised, besides she doesn't know the full story yet, we only got naked to keep warm."
Lena nodded, "Your right."
"I always am," Alex joked and Lena swatted her arm.
They both stopped and looked at each other, that invisible force drew them back together into a gentle kiss.
Then they heard a tap on the window.
They broke apart with a start.
"We better go before she as a meltdown," Alex said.
"Lead the way Director," Lena replied.
They both stepped out of the vehicle then Alex pulled their warm weather coats from the boot. Alex was relieved that the snow had stopped falling but could see the road was still un-passable.
While Alex was doing this Lena approached Kara.
"Hey Kara," Lena smiled, "How did you know how and where to find us?"
"Your heart was racing, so was Alex's, now I know why."
Lena felt a little embarrassed, she looked down at her feet because she couldn't meet Kara's eyes.
"Are you and Alex, you know…you were naked Lena!" Kara said as the familiar crinkle appeared on her brow.
"No, yes, but not like you think," Lena replied quickly, "let me explain?"
Kara bent her head to the side in confusion and folded her arms.
"I mean, we kissed, touched a little..."
"No, I don't want to hear about how you touched," Kara butted in quickly with a hand up, "that's my sister!"
"I really like Alex. Does that help?" Lena replied seeing the look of distress on Kara's face
Alex stepped up having heard the conversation, "It was completely innocent, we were just keeping warm."
"Oh," Kara said relieved, "My bad, I thought…"
"I know what you thought," Alex rolled her eyes.
"So, when did this happen?" Kara asked a bit more relaxed about the idea, she looked to them both.
"Today," Lena replied and pulled on her coat that Alex had handed to her.
"Wow, well, I guess this is okay," Kara started to smile a little more excitedly, "this is great! We will be sisters!"
"Hey slow down there," Alex raised her eyebrows at her sister, "we've only kissed. It's not like we're getting married."
Lena felt her heart sink a little, so that is all it was to Alex, a bit of fun? That's all I am to her. But then I never have been marriage material to anyone.
Lena was broken out of her thoughts by Supergirl talking to Alex, "It's probably best if you both get back in the SUV and I'll fly you there."
"Don't you dare drop us!" Lena told her quickly.
Alex smiled, "Don't worry, she won't, she's flown planes before."
"Yes I know," Lena said remembering the time when she didn't know Kara was Supergirl and she saved them both from crashing her private jet.
"Of course, I'm so sorry about that Lena," Kara said guilty.
"It's okay, were okay, really Kara." Lena smiled at her friend softly and touched her arm affectionately.
Kara smiled back at her and then pulled her into a hug.
Alex watched them both and started to wonder if she had competition, "Okay, let's go, Sam will wonder where we are."
It wasn't long before Supergirl dropped them outside the large wooden lodge that Sam and her fiance Jen had rented for the week. It was huge with eight bedrooms, all with on suite bathrooms. Christmas lights adorned the outside and there was a big Christmas Tree on the lawn outside beautifully decorated with colourful lights. The snow was thick on the ground so Kara helped them get their luggage to the front door and then said her goodbyes, she now had to go and find the lost Super watch.
Alex and Lena stood on the porch and knocked. As they waited with their luggage at their feet Lena slipped her hand into Alex's. She in turn looked to Lena and their lips met in a leisurely kiss.
"Sorry to interrupt," Sam grinned as she opened the door and caught them kissing on the porch.
Alex let go of Lena's hand, Lena immediately felt the loss of her warmth.
"Sam, so good to see you again," Alex greeted her as she stepped inside and gave her friend a hug, "Is ruby with you?"
"No, she is staying with her friends, but you will see her at the wedding," Sam replied and then she greeted Lena who was just behind Alex, "Lee, I have missed you so much."
Alex stepped into the lodge with the suitcases whilst Lena and Sam caught up.
Jen greeted Alex with a smile, "Alex, I have heard so much about you."
"Really?" Alex smiled back and shook her hand.
"Mostly about how brave you are, FBI I think Sam said?"
Alex nodded, "Sam said your a teacher?"
"Yes, I teach Art. We met at Ruby's school."
"That's wonderful," Alex replied taking in the large living room area, there was a log fire burning brightly, two large brown leather sofas, a large rug and wall lights giving the lodge a cosy feel. There was a Christmas Tree in one corner near the door, decorated with some presents beneath it.
Lena and Sam came up behind them both giggling.
"What's so funny?" Alex asked.
"Oh I was just telling Sam how we gave Supergirl a bit of a fright," Lena chuckled. And Alex shuffled on her feet a little embarrassed that Sam knew exactly what had happened. Especially the part about being naked.
"Anyway, you both must be hungry, there is some hot soup and warm bread in the kitchen." Sam sensed Alex felt awkward so decided to change the subject.
They both followed Sam into the kitchen where Jen was preparing their soup.
Both Alex and Lena were very grateful for the food. It warmed them both up instantly. Afterwards Sam made some hot chocolate and they all sat in front of the fire.
"So, are you both an item now?" Sam asked as she sipped her drink.
Alex looked to Lena for guidance, Lena looked to Alex unsure what to say.
"We haven't had chance to talk about it, but if Alex wants, I would like to see where this is going between us," Lena said looking at Alex.
"I would like that," Alex replied truthfully with a small smile.
"Good," Lena smiled back at her.
"You two are so cute," Sam grinned.
Alex hid her face behind her mug of hot chocolate and Lena just looked at her with love eyes.
Then Alex put down her empty mug and yawned. The day had completely worn her out and all she wanted to do was crawl up and sleep.
Sam looked at the cases and then at Alex and Lena, "I'll show you to your rooms, unless you would like one of the doubles? It would save space, we have quite a few guests arriving tomorrow."
Alex felt like she had been put on the spot, because of course she would love to be sleeping in the same bed as Lena but she didn't want to be presumptuous.
"I, er….."
Lena chucked to herself, "We'll take the double. It's fine."
Sam winked at Lena and Alex blushed. Then they stood and both followed Sam to their room. She stopped at the door, "I'll leave you both in peace, were just down the hall if you need anything."
"Thanks Sam," Lena told her.
The door closed and they were alone again.
Alex put her case down on the bed and unzipped it, she pulled out her favourite lounge pants and a t-shirt she liked to sleep in. Then she looked at the time on her phone, it was just after midnight.
Lena made her way to the bathroom while Alex got changed.
Alex got into bed, slipped under the warm blanket, it felt heavenly after spending all that time in the car, she sighed and turned onto her side. Tiredness was overtaking her, she was just drifting off to sleep when Lena got into the bed beside her. Lena was also exhausted she moved across the bed and cuddled into Alex's back, wrapping one arm around the Directors waist.
Alex softly mumbed, "Nite babe."
Lena closed her eyes, the wonderful feeling of Alex's warm back against her front, "Nite love."
