"I know Kara." Adam stated as he sat in the women's apartment.
"You know what?" Kara asked, she could feel her heart pounding in her chest.
"Look, I get why you don't want to start a relationship, especially with your bosses son but I care about you Kara. More then I've cared about anyone else. Please don't give up on this." Adam pleaded.
"I care about you too Adam." Kara looked down at her hands. She wanted nothing more then just to say yes, to allow herself to have a life.
"I can see that this is what you want, is whatever holding you back honestly worth losing this?"
Kara thought for a moment, right in front of her was an amazing man who was willing to fight for her. She would be an idiot to let that go.
"Okay," Kara stated.
"Okay?" Adam repeated, he hopped it meant what he thought it did.
"I wanna try to make this work." Kara looked up at Adam.
Adam didn't say a word, he just leaned in and kissed the girl of his dreams. He knew in that moment he would marry this women.

Kara and Adam were walking through the park, hand in hand, talking and laughing about every subject known to man.
"You know who I wanna meet?" Adam asked.
"No, who?" Kara asked taking a bite of her ice cream.
"I want to meet Supergirl. But not as her hero self, but as her human self. The person she is when she's not saving the city." Adam stated causing Kara to almost choke on her ice cream. She began to cough.
"Wow, you okay?" Adam asked stopping to look at Kara.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Kara gave a fake laugh. "Anyway, why would you want to meet the person Supergirl is when she's not helping people?"
"Because I'm sure that's when she's at her best. That's when she's a hundred percent her." Adam explained. "I bet she's pretty amazing."
"Wow, why don't you go date her." Kara teased.
"I'm pretty happy with what I've got now." Adam said pulling Kara into a hug. "As awesome as I'm sure Supergirl's human side is, she would be nothing compared to you."
Kara gave him a knowing smile before kissing him.
"Ew," A kid yelled as he and his mom walked by the couple, causing both Adam and Kara to burst into laughter.
"Tommy," the women chastised her son. But Kara and Adam were still in the middle of their laughing fit that they didn't notice.
"Do you remember ever being like that?" Adam asked with a laugh. "Thinking boys were gross."
Kara laughed. "I hatted when my parents used to kiss in front of me."
She couldn't help but think about how she would kill to see that sight again.
Adam took her hand and they continued their walk through the park.
"So what's your plan?" Kara asked after a moment of silence.
"My plan for what?" Adam asked as they made their way over to a small lake, both sitting down to look out across it.
"I mean this isn't where your life is." Kara explained turning to look at him. "What are you planning on doing now?"
"My girlfriend, my mom and brother are all here." Adam pointed out.
"Yeah but what about your dad and your job?" Kara asked.
"Well, my dad will always be a phone call away and I've already taken care of the job part." Adam explained.
"What do you mean?" Kara asked.
"I had a job interview this morning and got a call just before I came to meet you. I got the job, I'll be working in marketing at Wilson Inc." Adam said.
"Really?" Kara smiled. "That's great."
"Yeah," Adam smiled. "I'm also going to go look at apartments Monday."
Kara look up at him. She really didn't know what to say, she was so happy to know that he was staying in Central City but she still had that nagging feeling in the back of her head that this relationship was going to get him hurt, heck she wasn't even in a relationship with James and he was almost killed.
Kara lay her head on Adam's shoulder and looked out across the small lake.
"What are you thinking about?" Adam asked knowing full well that Kara's mind had left the conversation.
"Nothing." She said simply. "I'm just trying to enjoy you company."
Before Adam could say anything Kara's phone began to ring.
She pulled it out and noticed Cat's name came across her screen.
"Sorry." Kara apologized. "Hello Ms. Grant."
"Kiera why aren't you at the office?"
"Ms. Grant it's Saturday?"
"I don't need you to tell me what day it is. Get to the office!" With that Cat hung up her phone.
"I'm so sorry, I've gotta go." Kara half whined.
"Yeah, I caught that." Adam laughed. He stood up then offered Kara his hand, which she gladly took. They began to make their way out of the park. "Hey do you have any plans tonight?"
Kara and Adam both stopped just outside the park. "Not that I know of, unless your mom's mood continues this way I may be at CatCo all night."
"Well stop by my apartment when you get off work, I'll make us dinner."
"You cook?" Kara couldn't believe it, this guy was way too perfect.
"Don't most people know how to cook?" Adam asked.
Kara couldn't help but laugh. "No."
"Oh my god, you don't know how to cook?" Adam was now laughing.
"I never learned. That's why my sister and I always eat out."
Adam pulled Kara into a hug. "Well that's going to change, I'm going to teach you how."
Kara laughed again but this time didn't say anything, she just kissed him.
"Seriously! Is that all you people do!" The same little boy Tommy shouted as he and his mom made their way out of the park.
Kara and Adam pulled apart in another fit of laughter.
"I am so sorry, Tom apologize." The mother demanded.
"No it's totally fine." Adam said through laughter.
The women looked over at the young couple, smiling, before walking away with her son by her side.
"Oh my god." Kara laughed again. "What are the odds."
"Do you want me to walk you to CatCo?" Adam asked after they both calmed down.
"No it's alright. I'll see you tonight." Kara smiled, she knew it would be faster to fly and by the sounds of it Cat wanted her there quickly.
"See you tonight." Adam smiled before turning and walking the other direction.

Adam sat in his hotel room trying to figure things out. He had had every intention of bring up the fact that he knew Kara was Supergirl at Kara's apartment but for some reason he felt he should wait for her to tell him. Now he was wondering if he had made the right choice.
But he also didn't want to chase her away again and what if by confronting her about being Supergirl he did just that.
He cared a lot about Kara and he was going to do whatever it took to keep her in his life even if that meant keeping quiet about that one fact.
xxSupergirlxx
"Ms. Grant, what can I do for you?" Kara asked as she walked into her bosses office.
"Why weren't you here earlier?" Cat snapped.
"Ms. Grant you called me five minutes ago." Kara said confused.
"I meant why weren't you here at 7, like you are everyday." Kara could tell something was seriously wrong with Cat.
"Ms. Grant I don't come in on Saturdays, no one does." Kara pointed out look out to the completely empty room beyond Cat's office. In fact the only other people at CatCo other then Cat and Kara was security.
"Kiera when I am in the office so are you." Cat explained in a cold tone.
"Yes Ms. Grant." Kara said not really sure what to say. "What do you need me to do?"
"Just…Just leave me alone." Cat said turning back to her paperwork on her desk.
"Ms. Grant, is everything alright?" Kara asked cautiously.
"Get out of my office Kiera." Cat said in the same deathly tone she only used when she was about to fire someone.
Without saying a word Kara headed out to her desk. She quickly texted Adam.
Kara: Hey somethings up with Cat, not really sure what to make of everything. I might be pretty late.
A few moments later Adam texted back.
Adam: Sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do to help? And I don't care how late it is I still want to see you.
Kara: No there's nothing you can really do, I'm just going to lay low until Cat gets sick of me being here. See you tonight.
Kara put her phone back on her desk and decided if Kara Danvers couldn't get Cat to talk maybe Supergirl could.
She acted as if she was heading to the bathroom but at the last moment turned to make her way towards the balcony, fully dressed in her Supergirl outfit.
She landed softly on Cat's balcony, going unnoticed by Cat.
"Ms. Grant, don't you know it's a Saturday?" Supergirl asked walking into the Queen of All Media's office.
"Why if it isn't the Girl of Steel herself." Cat said without looking up. "To what do I owe this visit?"
"What's bothering you Cat?" Supergirl asked walking up to the desk. For the first time Cat looked up at the hero.
"Oh Supergirl how is it you always seem to know everything?" Cat asked as she stood up.
"I have my ways." She smirked. "But seriously, what's going on Cat?"
Cat looked over to where Kara's desk sat and noticed it was empty. "Where did that useless assistant of mine go now?"
"You have your assistant here on a Saturday? Is the rest of your company here as well?" Supergirl asked faking her surprise to the best of her ability.
"Honestly, what is so weird about coming into the office on a Saturday? You would think I asked the girl to stay here and never leave." Cat sat down on her sofa in a huff. Kara had to fight off a laugh, that's practically what she did anyway.
Supergirl didn't say anything she just watched Cat for a moment.
"I don't know what to do." Cat finally said. "I finally got my son back in my life and now that he's in a relationship with Kiera I'm worried I'm going to loss him again. Kiera has never been very good at relationships, I just don't want her to hurt him."
Kara had to think for a moment. Of course Cat was worried about that. "Cat, you can't think Kara would purposely hurt your son, do you?"
"Of course she wouldn't, but that doesn't mean it wont happen." Cat responded.
"Cat, I don't know your assistant very well, but from everything you've said about her she seems like a very nice person and I'm sure that if she thought she was going to hurt Adam she wouldn't pursue a relationship with him." Kara couldn't tell if she was saying this for Cat or herself.
Just then Kara could hear someone calling for help. "I'm sorry but I've got to go. Don't be so hard on yourself or Kara. Trust Adam, I'm sure no matter what happens he'll make a relationship with you work."
With that Supergirl made her way to the balcony and flew off in the direction of the call for help.

A few minutes later Kara made her way back to her desk and sat down. She decided that since she didn't have any work to do that she would just play games on her phone.
She picked it up and noticed that she'd missed a call from Alex. She quickly dialed her sister number.
A few rings later and Alex answered.
"Hey," Alex answered.
"Hey, sorry I missed you. What's up?" Kara asked as she glanced over into Cat's office to see her boss already going for a drink, it was like three in the afternoon.
"Oh it was just DEO stuff but we got it figured out. What's going on with you, I stopped by your apartment but you weren't there." Alex asked. Kara could hear the regular noise of the DEO going on in the background.
"Oh I was with Adam and then Cat called me into the office." Kara explained. It was taking everything out of her not to just go into Cat's office and take away all of the alcohol.
"Seriously? Ruining your whole week isn't enough now she's got to take up your weekend?" Kara knew Alex didn't like Cat, it was understandable but she sometimes wished Alex would give Cat a break.
"It's not a big deal." Kara said. "So what was going on with your end of things?"
"Oh we just had an escapee but Hank and I got him situated." Alex explained.
"Do I want to know?" Kara could tell there was more to the story.
"No you don't." Alex said with a laugh.
"Are you hurt?" Kara asked. But before Alex could answer there came Cat's voice.
"Kiera, get in here!"
"Sorry I gotta go, this conversation isn't over." Kara said before handing up and running into Cat's office.
"Yes, Ms. Grant." Kara said standing in the door.
Cat just glared at Kara, without saying a word. There was a very awkward silence between the two women, broken only because Adam walked through the office door.
"Hey, am I interrupting something?" Adam asked cautiously.
"Oh, hello Adam." Cat greeted in a cheerful tone. "Kiera, go down to maintenance and see if they can't fix this desk."
"Ms. Grant, maintenance isn't in on Saturdays." Kara reminded her.
"Then go call one of them in, chop chop." Cat ordered.
Adam shot Kara an apologetic look before turning back to his mother.
Kara had left the office and was back at her desk, about to ruin yet another persons Saturday.
"Mom what are you doing?" Adam asked walking up to his mothers desk.
"What do you mean?" Cat asked as she continued to look through the papers on her desk.
"What is going on? Calling Kara in on a Saturday? Why are you even here on a Saturday?" Adam continued to press for answers.
"Kiera is doing her job and so am I." Cat informed him. "Unless you came here for anything else I really do need to get back to work."
Adam just stared at Cat, he really did want a relationship with his mother but she was making it so hard.

9 PM
Kara had been sitting at her desk, doing nothing, for the last five and a half hours. The guy that was supposed to come in and fix Cat's desk refused to come into the office for something that could easily be dealt with on Monday. This resulted in Kara being screamed at by Cat, as if it was Kara's fault the guy didn't want to come in on his day off. Kara could think of a million things she'd rather be doing then sitting in an empty office building, with a pissy boss.
Kara had spent most of her time trying to ignore Cat and focus on other things, so she didn't notice when Cat walked up to her desk.
"Kiera." Cat said in a rather monotone voice, startling Kara.
Kara's head shot up from her phone, "Yes Ms. Grant?"
"Go home." The Media Queen ordered.
Kara sat there not sure if she had heard Cat correctly, was she really free?
"Well don't just sit there. Go!" Cat ordered, this time much louder. Kara stood up and began cleaning up her desk.
"Yes Ms. Grant." Kara said grabbing her bag and cell phone, she wanted to get out of there as quickly as she could before Cat changed her mind.
When she got down to the street she quickly called Adam.
"Hey," Adam answered cheerfully.
"Hey, I'm free." Kara said happily. "Do you still want me to come over?"
"Of course!" Adam responded. "It's late so instead of me cooking does pizza sound okay?"
"Sounds perfect! I'm going to stop by my apartment and then I'll be over to your place." Kara said happily. This is the first time she'd felt happy all day since her and Adam's walk in the park.
"Alright, can't wait to see you." Adam said then hung up the phone.
Right before she was about to start flying Kara's phone began to ring, James' name flashed on the screen.
"Hey," Kara answered.
"Hi, Cat called me, she needs to talk to Supergirl."
Kara grounded. "Seriously… She just can't leave me alone today."
"Do I even want to know?" James asked.
"No, I'll head over there and see what she needs now. Thanks James." Kara said.
"Sorry, have a good night."
"You too." Kara replied and hung up the phone.
Kara really did like her job, most days…
