A/N: Chapter 7 is here peeps. I left out conversations because...well because I couldn't think of a single thing to say, plus we all know that Lena freaking Luthor isn't going to go out of her way to talk Alex into liking her, she is a woman of science and action. Next chapter will be drinks at Lena's and Alex learns just how integrated National City's newest power couple really are.

I Can't be Angry about that

Chapter 7

Lena's P.O.V.

I was panicking...if Kara was here and asked I would say I was calm and collected...so not true. Why am I panicking? Because I am about to be involved in what can only be described as a double date. A double date with a federal agent and her detective girlfriend and with my girlfriend who masquerades as Supergirl...

"This is my life," I say under my breath while shaking my head with a smile.

"What was that?" Kara's voice makes me jump and spin to face her.

"My god Kara! You look like you flew through a forest fire." There is soot and leaves in her hair and she just generally just look worse for wear. "Kara you do know that you have to be ready in an hour so we can make our reservations."

"I know Lee, I had an unfortunate run in with a brush fire just outside of the city, but I am here now and believe me I am just as nervous as you are for this date." I go to speak but she silences me with a deep kiss. She pulls back and her lips brushing mine sends tingles to my toes. "Don't tell me otherwise sweetie. I can hear your heart remember, and when you are nervous it has a slightly different beat."

I pull back in shock, "You listen to my heart?"

Kara only chuckles as she leaves a trail of her uniform from me to the bathroom finally stopping stark naked at the door and looking at me over her shoulder. And I can't help it if my eyes trail along that godlike body those Kryptonian genes blessed Kara with and I can't stop the little groan that escapes.

"You should know by now Lena that I am in tune to everything you." And with that she disappears behind the bathroom door.

The only thing that stops me from following my beautiful girlfriend into what is no doubt a steamy bathroom is my perfectly done make-up. I turn to the closet and start to pick out a suitable dress for the date.

A good fifteen minutes later Kara comes out looking clean and in the blink of an eye she is dressed and hair perfectly done in a beautiful up do and glasses perched over those beautiful blue eyes. "You know, when you do things like that it is very hard not to feel envious." I say while putting my own hair in a tight ponytail until I feel Kara come up behind me, her arms encircling my waist, my hands falling to cover hers and my hair falling around my shoulders.

"I know, it's just never something I really saw as a perk until I solar flared for the first time." She said before placing a kiss to my cheek. "But do me a favor tonight?" I raised an eyebrow, knowing she would see it in the reflection of the mirror. "Leave your hair down? I love playing with it when it's down and the way is makes your eyes shine." Her eyes then make contact with mine and the amount of love I see in them makes my knees weak.

I turn in her arms and run my hands up and down her shirt covered arms, taking in her red button down and black pants. "I can't express how much I love you Ms. Danvers."

"And I love you Ms. Luthor and it is time I tell those closest that this is the way it is going to be from now on because if there is one thing that I am certain of Lena, it's that I am never letting you go. "

And if I have to touch up my lipstick...well that is just not my fault when Kara is involved.


Alex's P.O.V.

"Remind me again why I let Lena pick the restaurant again?" I huff as I pull on the sleeves of my dress once again, saving them from falling down my shoulders. "I feel ridiculous." And it's true, because while this isn't the highest of high end restaurants in National City, it is classy, meaning dress for me and a nice button down for Maggie.

"Well you certainly don't look ridiculous, you look beautiful and cut Lena some slack. She is nervous about this and places like this are her comfort zone." Maggie says kissing my cheek. I look over to my beautiful girlfriend and admire her deep blue shirt that barely conceals those muscles that I know are hiding beneath...and knowing Maggie, she has a gun holstered in the small of her back, just like I have one in the clutch on the table.

"That is fine," I say coming out of my thoughts. "But Kara has never liked places like this, she prefers places like Noonan's. I just don't want her trying to change herself just because she is with Luthor." I say looking down at my menu, knowing that I am falling back into my judgements of the youngest Luthor, but I can't help but fear that Kara will change the foundation of who she is if it meant she had the ability to keep Luthor in her life.

"Alex," Maggie's tone full of warning. "Behave, we are meeting the woman your sister is in love with and will no doubt one day marry, not the youngest Luthor, not the business woman and not the woman whose brother went on a rampage. Just Lena, no last name, just Lena. And besides, Kara looks right at home with Lena on her arm."

At that I look up and see the couple walk to the hostess. And fuck everything, if Maggie isn't right. Kara dressed in a blood red shirt and slacks, with the youngest Luthor draped in an emerald green dress that I have the suspicion is backless, her elegant arm looped with Kara's.

"Even you have to admit that they are the beginnings of National City's favorite power couple." Maggie whispers.

"That's exactly what I am afraid of, it will make it that much harder to hide you know who from the cameras." I bite back. It is known, that Lena is the subject of paparazzi scrutiny and that means cameras, lots of them, and it is only a matter of time before they pick up on the relationship they have hidden for... huh, how long had they been together...quite a while if the comfortableness of their gestures reveal. If I didn't know any better I would think they were already married.

As they draw closer I see Kara whisper something to Lena that makes her duck her head and smile. I can't stop the sigh. "They love each other, I can't be angry about that." I whisper to myself.

"No, no you can't." Maggie provides before standing and greeting the other half of the date night. "Ms. Luthor." Her hand reaches out to grasp Lena's in a gentle shake.

"Detective," her voice is guarded but kind. "Call me Lena, please."

"Only if you call me Maggie. I hope there is no hard feelings about me arresting you." I can see the grimace on my girlfriend's face.

Lena stares at her for a few seconds before she smiles, and my god even I have to admit she is beautiful. "None, Maggie. I know you were just doing your job, it did however take a while to convince Kara to let it go."

Kara huffs. "She arrested you with no..." A gentle kiss from Lena shuts Kara right up. "Right..." And the look on Kara's face is showing nothing but love for the woman on her arm. With that we all sit down and start the double date night.

Conversation flows stunted at first before the first few glasses of wine are downed. And I hate to admit it, I won't admit it for a few more weeks, but Lena Luthor is completely and utterly head over heels in love with my little sister, and I want to hate her, I really do, because nothing good ever follows the Luthor name but maybe just maybe she is the only exception, I pray for Kara's sake that she is.

As the dinner draws to a close we make our way outside, and the cold hits all of us but Kara. "We can go to my place, it's just around the corner? I have expensive wine and heat." Lena says timidly, as Kara places an arm around Lena's shoulder to try and combat the cold.

Maggie answers yes, that they could have a few more glasses before calling for a cab. And we begin the short walk to Lena's apartment. And as Kara and Lena walk a few paces in front of me and Maggie, I can't help but think I might have nothing to worry about.

Lena is huddled into Kara's side as they talk quietly, and something Lena says makes Kara throw her head back and laugh, and she sounds so carefree, so open. And if Kara has found someone who can break past the walls she put up over the years and help alleviate the burden of being the last of her race, we all know Clark is more human, then I can't hate a single thing about them.

By no means am I suddenly Lena's biggest fan but I find myself appreciating her just a little more for being one of the few people who can truly make Kara embrace her humanity.
