Kara and Alex groaned simultaneously when their alarms went off at seven the next morning. Kara normally was a morning person, waking up with the warmth of the sun kissing her skin and making her feel energized and ready for the day. Her powers on this planet were from the yellow sun, after all. She loved waking up to soak up the sun and pray her morning prayers to Rao.

There was an exception to Kara's morning routine, and that's when her sister had her up late drinking. She made sure to not get too drunk, not wanting her first official day at L-Corp to be seen through a hungover haze. She drank enough to groan when her alarm went off, wanting to stay under the covers for a few more minutes.

Kara reached a hand out and gently felt around until she found her and Alex's alarm, and turned them off. Kara then rolled over to see her sister staring at her with sleepy eyes. Kara blinked, and shot Alex a questioning look.

"Drinking on a work night was a bad idea, Kara." Alex stated, sitting up to rub the sleep out of her eyes. Alex had definitely drank more then Kara, but she wasn't starting a new job the next day.

Kara looked at her sister with an appalled look on her face. "Are you insinuating drinking last night was my idea? Because I specifically recall that it was you who grabbed the tequila out of my freezer." Kara argued with a huff, and slipped out of bed.

Alex groaned again, and followed Kara out of bed. "Whatever, it was a bad call on both of our parts. You shower first, I'll make breakfast. And yes, before you ask, I will make pancakes." Alex said, and laughed at her sister smiling and skipping into the bathroom happily.


Kara and Alex said their goodbyes in front of Kara's apartment building, then went their separate ways. Kara had shaken off her nerves in the presence of her sister but now that she was alone, she was nervous. She quickly checked Lena's coffee order while she walked into the coffee shop, not wanting to screw up right off the bat. She got the coffee, and walked the rest of the short distance to the L-Corp skyscraper. Once she got into the building and situated at her desk, she heard Lena coming up the elevator.

Kara jumped up and checked her outfit, making sure everything was in place. She had a white button down with small black polka dots on and a light blue sweater over top, and a navy skirt that fell to right above her knees. She had a pair of kitten heels on as well. She reached up and fixed her glasses, and picked up Lena's coffee when she heard the ding of the elevator.

When the doors opened, Kara had to remind herself not to crush the coffee cup in her hands. Lena had a simple yet elegant black dress on, and minimal jewelry. She went light on the makeup, but had bright red lipstick coating her lips. Lena had her hair up in a bun, and Kara hadn't realized she was staring until Lena was right in front of her.

Lena fought to keep a smirk off of her face at the sight of Kara checking her out. Lena cleared her throat and that seemed to snap Kara out of her daydream.

"M-M-Miss Luthor! Good morning! H-Here is your coffee!" Kara said brightly, trying to cover the fact she just got caught checking out her boss. She thought she did well covering, but the ghost of a smile on Lena's lips told her otherwise.

"Thank you, Miss Danvers." Lena said smoothly, and turned around to walk into her office. Kara followed quickly, and said, "Please, call me Kara." Kara stood a few feet into Lena's office, and waited for the CEO to get situated before she said anything. Lena smiled and said, "Kara it is, then." The way Kara's name rolled off her tongue, oh Rao.

"Is there anything I can do for you at the moment?" The blonde said while she adjusted her glasses, trying to forget the way the brunette said her name. Kara felt nervousness spread though every spot that Lena Luthor's gaze brushed over her outfit, and eventually her face.

"No." Lena stated, and quickly turned to her work. Kara nodded and walked out of Lena's office and shut the doors. Taking a deep breath, she got started on the long list of things she had to do before lunchtime.

After a few hours, it was nearing lunchtime. Kara had done all the morning assignments James told her needed to be done daily, and she had finished the few things Lena emailed her asking her to complete. Hearing her stomach grumble, Kara hopped up and walked energetically to Lena's office. Knocking softly, she entered when she heard a soft "come in" from the CEO.

Lena was pacing behind her desk, periodically pausing to glance out the window. Kara stood at the door, not wanting to interrupt the CEO. She had a determined look on her face, and Kara let her finish her train of thought and acknowledge her before she said anything.

"Yes, Kara?" Lena asked with her back to Kara, gazing outside the big windows in her office. Kara took a few more steps into her office and started to ramble.

"Are you hungry? It's lunchtime, and I didn't see any deliveries to your office, and I wanted to ask if you wanted anything? I personally was going to get Chinese because I love potstickers, but anything you want I can get. I know you tend to forget to eat and all and I just want to make sure you do eat, because it's important, a-and I'm going to stop rambling now." Kara said, shutting herself up when halfway through her monologue Lena turned around and smirked at the girl.

"Actually, I'd love Chinese. One condition- if we have it delivered, you must accompany me for lunch out on the balcony." Lena said with a smile, and gestures outside. "It's quiet a lovely day, and it would be an absolute sin if we didn't soak up some sun, don't you agree?" Lena asked and laughed freely at the smile forming on Kara's face.

"I would love to, Miss Luthor." Kara said with a beaming smile and excused herself to order their lunches.

Kara nervously fiddled with the bags full of food as she walked towards Lena's office. She was about to eat lunch with her boss. They haven't really sat down and had a conversation, other then Kara's interview. Kara suddenly felt very nervous. She was about to eat an enormous amount of food in front of the CEO of the biggest corporation in National City. It didn't help that Kara had a growing crush on the brunette. Kara shook off these thoughts and walked into Lena's office, determined to not make a fool of herself.

Lena sighed at the sight of food. She had forgotten to eat that morning, and seeing the food in her beautiful assistant's hands made her almost start drooling.

"Here," Lena said, reaching out for a bag. "Let me help you with that."

Kara smiled and side-stepped Lena. "Don't worry, Miss Luthor, I got it!" Kara said with a smile. Lena nodded, suddenly without words once Kara smiled. Lena gestured toward the open balcony door. "Please, after you."

Kara stepped out on the balcony, and set the food down. Sitting down in the chair across from the one Lena had claimed, Kara tilted her head back at the feeling of the sun caressing her skin. Lena smiled at the sight. Kara smiled back at Lena, and said "Yeah. Lunch outside was a great idea."

Lena nodded and started rummaging through the bags. She paused when Kara had not done the same, looking up to realize she was praying. Setting a carton of noodles out for the two of them, Lena waited until Kara finished before saying anything.

"I didn't know you were religious." Lena stated indifferently, wanting to get to know her assistant more.

"Oh absolutely, back on my planet-" Kara started and froze. "Which is this one," she tried to cover smoothly, "we prayed to the god Rao, which is the god of the sun. My family was deeply religious and prayed to him in the morning, before meals, at night, and anytime we needed strengthening. It's just a habit that stuck with me..." Kara rambled, knowing religion was a touchy subject with humans. The last thing she wanted to do was offend Lena.

Lena nodded, following along with Kara's explanation. "I think that's really sweet, you bonded with your family over praying. I admire that, Kara." Lena said with a small smile, and diverted her attention to her noodles. Lena was going to make a snide comment about her family not having the heart to pray, but she didn't want to dampen the mood of the lunch. The last thing she wanted was pity from Kara.

Kara blushed and adjusted her glasses, and opened the container for the potstickers. She stuffed a whole one in her mouth, and moaned at the taste. She loved these things.

Lena snapped her gaze up at the sound of Kara's moan. Noticing she had her mouth full and her eyes closed, Lena laughed out loud. "I don't remember ever meeting someone that actually moaned while eating Chinese." Lena observed.

Kara, swallowing the potsticker, looked at Lena. "Have you ever tried these?" She asked while gesturing to the container. Lena sheepishly shook her head, and Kara's eyes bulged.

"Oh you absolutely have to try one, here." Kara said, picking up a potsticker with her chopsticks and reaching over towards Lena. "You have to eat the whole thing in one go, none of this little bites crap." Kara said. She intended to place the potsticker in Lena's carton, but Lena caught her wrist. Lifting her wrist up, Lena made direct eye contact with Kara as she guided Kara's chopsticks to her mouth. Closing her eyes and taking the potsticker with her mouth, she moaned when the taste flooded her mouth.

Kara sat with her jaw hanging open. The way Lena quirked her eyebrow before closing her eyes and opening her mouth, oh Rao. Kara felt a blush racing up her neck when Lena flexed her jaw muscles while chewing the potsticker. Kara had to look away when Lena poked her tongue out and licked her lips after swallowing.

"T-thoughts?" Kara squeaked out. Lena looked at Kara and smiled. "Delicious." She smirked at the effect she had on Kara, and calmly went back to her noodles. Kara tried to get rid of her blush, but couldn't seeing as she kept replaying the sound of Lena's moan in her head. She was sure there was no other sound as beautiful as what just came out of the CEO's mouth.

Oh Rao, she thought. I have a crush on my boss!

Alex was going to have a field day with this.
