It was the day of Zack's 4th birthday and the house was raging with excitement. The decorations have been hung, the cupcakes have been made, and Maggie is slaving away making dinner for everyone.
"I'd say this party has been a success don't you think?" Kara says walking up to Alex, who was watching the little ones play in the ball pit they rented.
Alex smiled, "yea I'd says so. When did Clark say he was coming?"
"Soon. There was a last minute fire he needed to help. Lois is coming with him."
Alex nodded, "watch over the little ones I need to check on Maggie."
Alex walks into the kitchen, "Hey babe how's it cooking good lookin."
Maggie brought her hands to her face, "oh god Alex you need to stop. They're so bad." Maggie laughed.
Alex walked up behind Maggie, "true but it got you to smile didn't it." Alex kissed Maggie's neck.
"Alex there are little ones present."
"So that means I can't kiss my fiancé." Alex pouted.
Maggie shook her head, "the food is done help me bring it to the table."
They brought the food outside and yelled, "dinner is ready!" One by one they exited the pit and ran to the table.
"Who knew Agent Danvers could be so domesticated. Just wait till the other Agents hear of this." Alex shot Winn a glare and he squeaked.
"Thank you Mama for the food." Zack said running up to Maggie with a face full of ketchup. Maggie laughed and grabbed a napkin, "baby you missed a couple spots." Maggie wiped it over Zack's smiling face, "there you go buddy now go back to playing with your friends."
Lois walks up behind Alex, "Clarks here." She says as superman touches down in the backyard.
"I heard a special little boy was having a birthday." All the kids screamed and ran to him but Zack. Zack crossed his arms and pouted.
"What's wrong baby," Alex asked. Zack hugged Alex as Alex picked him up and he whispered in Alex's ear, "I don't like Superman."
Kara walked up to Zack, "You like Supergirl though?" Zack signaled to switch arms. Kara held him tight, "yes, I love you auntie." Zack tightened his grip.
"Superman is family too. I know he is far away but he saves Metropolis like I save National City."
"Did you know that I'm older than him." Zack's eyes went wide, "really?"
Kara nodded, "yea really but don't tell anyone it's our secret. I love him because he is my cousin. Will you try to get to know him for me?"
"yes super auntie," Zack kissed Kara's check. Zack puffed out his chest and walked over to Superman.
Alex whispers to Maggie, "I think our boy is up to something."
As Zack approach Superman, he held out his hand, "Mr. Sawyer-Danvers nice to meet you." With a confused look on his face, Superman looked up to see his Kara, Alex, Maggie and the superfriends laughing. Superman looked down to Zack and shook his hand. Zack held on tightly, "Ow," Superman said as he shriveled under Zack's grip.
"You have a grip there buddy, did your moms teach you that Zack?"
"It's Mr. Sawyer-Danvers and my Auntie." Zack said sternly.
Superman smiled, "She is a smart one your aunt."
"Yes. I want to grow up and be like her." This caused Alex to choke on her drink and says, "that is NEVER going to happen." Maggie laughed. Then Alex turned to whisper in Maggie's ear, "why does Zack think is our last names are hyphenated."
"Beats me, I never said anything to him. But you gotta admit there is a ring to it."
Lena walked up next to Kara and gave her a kiss.
"Hello love." Kara said.
"Hi darling, I'm sorry I'm late I got caught up with Zack's present."
"Oh and what did you get him."
Lena whispers in Kara's ear, "you'll see."
Minutes later the sound of a helicopter approached the house, only it wasn't a helicopter it was the batplane. It stopped above the back yard and Batman dropped into the backyard. He pressed a button on his forearm, signaling the flying craft to leave.
"Where is the birthday boy." Batman said. Everyone was left in utter shock, except for lena. She had a smirked and nodded to Batman. Batman walked over to Zack and squatted down, "hi Zack."
Zack's jaw dropped, "you know my name. MOMS he knows my name!" Zack jumped excitedly.
"I have a present for you," Batman took out a little box from under his cape and gave it to Zack. He opened it to see a personalized batarang.
"Thank you batman! You're the best." Zack hugged batman.
He laughed, "seems I've one upped you this time superman." Batman shook superman's hand. Internally Superman felt hurt that Zack like supergirl and batman but not him.
"For now. Trouble is calling I have to go. Bye kids," Superman shot into the distance. Minutes later Clark returned. As the excitement died down and the cake was eaten, the kids began to leave. Gabby and her dads were the last to leave. Gabby walked up to Zack, "thank you for inviting me Zack." Gabby hugged Zack and then kissed him.
"Bye Gabby."
The adults stood there in shock before Maggie says, "how is it that our son already has game at the age of 4."
"Mama, Gabby is my friend. She is nice. Don't be mean." Zack pouted. Maggie picked him up, "I'm sorry baby."
Batman walked over to Lena, "I'd say we are even now." Batman said.
"I guess so, but not for long." Lena smiled and Batman kissed her cheek.
"Until next time Ms. Luthor." Batman grabbed the rope and was hoisted up to his batplane leaving everyone in shock. Alex was the first to speak up, "you know batman."
Lena smirked and turned to Zack, "you like my present Zack?"
He nodded enthusiastically, "batman is the best."
"HEY!" Clark and Kara said in unison.
"Sorry."
Alex spoke up, "Lena how do you know batman."
"You can't expect me to give up his identity now do you."
"Wait you know he identity?" Kara asked stunned.
"I do and he is a friend who owed me a favor. Maybe one day you'll find out but it is not my secret to tell."
"Best birthday ever!" Zack yawned.
Alex asked, "why don't we all watch a movie in the movie room. Clean up can wait until tomorrow."
