I want to make tonight perfect for Lena but I'm so nervous that I have no idea what to get for dinner. I also need to clean my apartment because it looks like a bomb exploded in here. I have no idea who could be at my door; everyone I know is at work right now.
"What are you doing here?", I asked J'onn as I opened my door and gave him a big hug.
"I wanted to check in with you. How's it going being the director of the DEO?", J'onn asked me with a smile on her face as we walked into my apartment and sat on the couch to talk. It's good to see him again, I haven't seen him since he promoted me to Director. I've spoken to him on the phone but I haven't gotten the chance to talk to him in person.
"It's going, it has it challenges as you know but it's going good.", I said to him with a smile on her face.
"That's good I knew you could do it, I have faith in you. How's it going with Lena and Kara? Are they still not speaking to each other?", J'onn said then asked.
"Well Kara wants to talk to Lena, but Lena doesn't seem to want to talk to her. At least not right now, I'm hoping they'll get back on speaking terms. Especially if her and I are going to be dating. It would be nice to have my sister get along with my girlfriend.", I said to him as he smiled and chuckled.
"That is true but both said women are very stubborn and thick headed. How are things going with becoming a mom?", J'onn said then asked.
"I'm more stubborn and thick headed then they are. I can get them to talk again. I went to the doctors today, so we'll see if I can have kids, if I can then I'll go from there. If I can't then I'm going to look into adoption and see what happens with that.", I said to him with a smile on my face.
"How does Lena feel about all this? I hope she supports you.", J'onn said to me sounding like a father more than a friend. I love that he thinks of Kara and I as his daughters' it's nice to know we have a father figure looking out for us.
"She does, we have talked about this and she knows I want to be a mom. She has no problem with it at all.", I said to J'onn as he smiled at me.
"Good, I didn't want to have to scare her.", J'onn said which got me to laugh.
"I don't think you've ever scared or intimidated Lena. She's a hard shell to crack that one.", I said to him as he also laughed because he knew I was right.
"I would have found a way to scare her.", J'onn said after he was done laughing.
"I believe that.", I said to J'onn as my phone started to ring.
"You can get that, she wouldn't be calling unless it was important.", J'onn said when he saw that Lena was calling me.
"I'll be right back.", I said to him with a smile on my face.
"Hey is everything okay?", I said into the phone as I picked it up.
"Someone tried to attack me, I'm okay Kara's here she heard what was going on. I just wanted to call you to let you know.", Lena said into the phone.
"Are you hurt? What happened exactly?", I said into the phone.
"I hit my head but really I'm fine I got checked out by the EMTs. I'm not so sure what happened, it happened so fast. Two men somehow got past my security team; they were rambling about Lex and other things that I couldn't really make out what was being said.", Lena said into the phone.
"I'm coming over.", I said into the phone.
"Really, Al I'm okay. I'll see you later, you don't have to come down here.", Lena said into the phone before I heard rustling then my sister's voice on the phone.
"She's just saying that, she did more than hurt her head. She's giving me the death glare but you need to know. She sprained her ankle and her wrist as well. She doesn't have a concussion though. I'm taking her to the DEO because I know you'll want to make sure she's okay.", Kara said into the phone.
"I figured she wasn't tell me the whole truth. I'll come over I'll be there shortly.", I said into the phone before I hung up.
"Sorry to cut this visit short.", I said to J'onn as I walked back over to him.
"That's okay Lena needs you. Is there anything I can help with?", J'onn said then asked.
"I think we have it covered, but if you want to come and visit everyone you are more than welcome too.", I said to J'onn with a smile on my face.
"It would be nice to see everyone again. I'll tag along.", J'onn said as we headed out of my apartment.
"I left Vasquez in charge hopefully she's doing okay. I haven't gotten any phone calls so I'm assuming everyone is on their best behavior.", I said to J'onn as we got into his car and started to drive to the DEO.
"I'm sure Vasquez can handle whatever is thrown at her. Other then you she's one of the best Agents when I was the director.", J'onn said as we pulled up to the DEO.
"She's great she's my best Field Agent. I actually promoted her to Senior Field Agent so she's in charge when they go out. She's also acting Director when I can't be in.", I said to him as we headed into the building.
"Thank god you are here. Kara and Lena have been fighting for the last half hour. Sir it's good to see you again.", Agent Vasquez said to me then to J'onn as she hugged him.
"It's good to see you again too. Congrats on the promotion.", J'onn said as Kara came storming into the HQ part of the DEO.
"Your girlfriend is unbelievably. She's pissed at me because I told you that she was hurt. She insisted that she was fine, but I could tell she was in pain and just didn't want to say anything. I figured if anyone could get her to take meds it's you. Now it's your turn to deal with her.", Kara said to me as she slumped into a chair with a pout on her face.
"I don't even get a hello?", J'onn said with a smirk on his face.
"J'onn! I didn't see you there.", Kara said as she got up and hugged him.
"I'm going to go check on Lena, you guys catch up.", I said to them as I headed to the medical bay. "What's with the pout?", I asked Lena when I walked into the med bay and saw her sitting on the bed with a pout on her face.
"No one is letting me leave here. I'm completely fine, I'll live to see another day.", Lena said to me as I got closer to her.
"Something's bothering you what is it? Don't give me that look, I know you better than you think.", I said to her knowing that something else was bothering her.
"I shouldn't let it bother me, but I have a feeling my mother was behind this.", Lena said to me.
"She's your mother it'll bother you no matter how much you tell yourself it doesn't. But you've gotten attack by her before and you've never acted like this. What's really going through your head right now?", I said to her then asked her as I sat down on the bed next to her.
"The difference now is that I have someone to live for. It freaked me out when I saw those men come barging into my office. All I could think of was you, of our future together; it scared the shit out of me that I could have died at that moment.", Lena said to me as she started to tear.
"Hey, look at me. You are a Luthor you kick danger in the ass just by walking out your front door. Nothing was going to happen to you. Kara always has ears on the people she loves. She was coming to you the moment she heard your heartbeat change. It's good to know that you aren't always so business like.", I said to her as I bumped my shoulder with hers.
"Shut up.", She said to me with a smirk on her face.
"Now can I take a look at you before we go home and I treat my lady like the queen she is.", I said to her which got her to laugh.
"You're such a dork.", Lena said to me after she stopped laughing.
"You love it.", I said to her as I started to look her over.
"I do.", She said to me as I leaned down to kiss her.
"Sorry to interrupt I just wanted to check on Ms. Luthor.", J'onn said from the doorway.
"J'onn, it's good to see you. How's life outside of the DEO treating you?", Lena asked as J'onn came over and hugged her gently.
"It's treating me very well. I just wanted to check on you before I left. If either need me just call.", J'onn said before he hugged us and left the med bay.
"So are you going to make me stay home for a few day to rest?", Lena asked me as I was stitching up the cut on her head.
"Yes, I want to make sure you don't develop a concussion.", I said to Lena.
"You and I both know that's unlikely. I'm not dizzy or nauseous, I'm not forgetting anything that is said to me. I'm fine.", Lena said to me with a pout to her voice.
"Just do it for me? Please, just relax for a day or two and then you can go back to work. Sam can take over LCorp for a few days and Jimmy can take over CatCo.", I said to Lena as I was covering up her cut.
"Fine, but you are staying with me. I'm not going to be bored for the next couple of days.", Lena said to me as I was checking her wrist.
"I think you might actually have a fracture not a sprain. Did they do x-rays?", I said then asked her.
"No I told them it was a sprain and I didn't want x-rays done. So I guess that means you are taking an x-ray. And let me think, you're also going to make me stay home longer if it's fractured?", Lena said then asked me with sass to her voice.
"Yes to both questions. Let's go take an X-ray.", I said to her as I helped her off the bed.
"You're lucky you're cute.", Lena said to me which got me to giggle as we headed into the x-ray room.
"Same to you.", I said to her as I helped her to sit so I could x-ray her wrist. "This is going to be uncomfortable but bare with me.", I said to Lena as I placed her wrist where I needed it to be for the x-ray.
"I got this.", Lena said with pain in her voice.
"Your voice says otherwise Miss. Luthor.", I said to her as I kissed her cheek.
"Just make it quick Danvers.", Lena said to me with a slight smirk on her face.
"I'll try.", I said to her as I left the room to take the x-ray. As the scan was coming up on the computer I could already tell that Lena was lying about how much pain she's in. She not only broke her wrist but she shattered part of her hand.
"I don't like the face you're making, Alex.", I heard Lena say as she was looking at me through the glass.
"You're not going to like what I see either.", I said to her as I walked into the room with her x-ray on an ipad.
"It's bad isn't it?", She asked before I could even show her the x-ray.
"Yeah it's bad, surgery bad. You not only broke your wrist but you shattered part of your hand as well. What exactly happened?", I asked her as she put her wrist to her chest.
"You're doing the surgery right?", Lena asked me with concern in her face.
"No, I don't do bones, but Dr. Hamilton is very good at her job. If it makes you feel better I can be in the surgical room with you while she does the surgery though.", I said to her as she started to tear.
"Okay.", is all she said to me before she clung onto my shirt and started to cry.
"You're okay, I got you.", I said to her as I gently hugged her and played with her hair.
"Everything okay?", Kara asked from the door.
"Could you take her back to the med bay and stay with her? I have to talk to Dr. Hamilton about surgery.", I asked Kara.
"Can't Kara talk to Dr. Hamilton? I really don't want you to leave.", Lena said to me as she was calming down a little.
"I'll be quick I promise. It'll take me longer to tell Kara what needs to be said. Kara will stay with you until I come back. I promise I'll be back and I'll stay with you until the surgery is done.", I said to Lena as I kissed her.
"Okay, is it too weird to ask you to carry me there? My ankle really hurts.", Lena then asked Kara.
"I can carry you.", Kara said as she gently picked Lena up.
"I'll be back shortly.", I said to Lena before they left to go back to the Med Bay. I headed straight for the head quarts area; I need to know if Brainy found who thos men were. I need to punch something and I rather it be their faces then a punching bag.
"If you are here to ask if I have found the men who attacked Ms. Luthor, I have. I sent you where they are located, punch them for me while you are at it Director Danvers.", Brainy said before I could even ask him if he had found them.
"Thank you Agen Dox, if my sister or Lena ask where I am, don't tell them. I'll tell them when I get back.", I said to Brainy.
"I can't lie, it's not in my nature.", Brainy said to me which got me to roll my eyes.
"Then don't say anything at all.", I said to him before I left to change into my gear.
"If you think you're going out there alone you are wrong. I can't have you next to Lena in the med bay.", Kara said to me as she came into the locker rooms.
"Damn you and your super hearing.", I said to her as I turned around to face her.
"Actually, I didn't have to use my super hearing. I know you, Alex, you're my sister. I know you protect the people you care about. I had a feeling you were going to want to go after them. Just please let me go with you, I won't do anything I'll just be there for backup.", Kara said to me.
"I can take care of myself Kara, I appreciate it I do, but someone needs to stay here with Lena.", I said to Kara.
"I know you can handle yourself, Alex. I've seen you do it plenty of times, but Lena can take care of herself as well; and look where she is. You don't know what these men are capable of doing. I don't want to have to explain to Lena why her girlfriend is in the hospital bed next to her.", Kara said to me. I know she's right and I hate the fact that she's right. She always has to be right, for once I would just like to do something without having someone watch my back.
"All I want is one punch then you can do what you want with them. They hurt Lena really bad, Kar. I've never seen her so defeated before; usually when she's attacked she gets right back up. But look at her, and tell me that her face isn't the face of someone that's about to give up.", I said to Kara as I started to tear.
"I know I saw it in her eyes the moment I got to her. But she's strong and with you by her side she'll get through this I know she will. And I know you, you aren't going to feel better until you get to punch someone. So we'll go and find them, you hit them a few times and then I'll call a friend of mine at NCPD and they'll arrest them. Lena might have to appear in court to put them behind bars, but I know she'll do that as long as you are right next to her.", Kara said as she hugged me.
"Thank you for being the best little sister ever.", I said to her as we headed to go find these assholes.
"You're the best big sister.", Kara said with a smile on her face.
"You didn't tell Lena where we were going right?", I asked Kara before we headed out of the DEO.
"No, I asked Brainy to keep an eye on her though. He likes Lena so I'm sure he'll keep her company. J'onn also said he might stop by and check on her, he texted me before.", Kara said to me.
"Good, I'm pretty sure she knows what I'm about to do but I rather not flat out tell her. I really don't need the disappointed Luthor glare. It's scarier than mom's disappointed look.", I said to Kara which got her to laugh.
"I know that look, it's not pretty. She gave me that look when I called you, I'm an alien that can't die but even that look could have killed me.", Kara said which got me to laugh as well.
"She loves with her whole heart though.", I said to Kara as we began to fly.
"She does.", Kara said with a smile on her face as we landed on someone's lawn.
"They're in a house? Isn't this a little weird to you.", I said then asked Kara.
"Yeah, something seems off.", Kara said as she was trying to use her x-ray vision.
"Supergirl, Director Danvers you might want to get out of there. Seems to be a trap. I've located the men that attacked Ms. Luthor at another location. They must have know we were looking for them.", Brainy said over the coms.
"Crap, Brainy where are they?", I asked Brainy as Kara was putting her cape around me before an explosion went off.
"Supergirl, Director Danvers can you hear me? Is everything okay?", J'onn said into the coms. "Girls' answer me.", J'onn said with fear in his voice.
"I'm okay, but Alex doesn't look so good.", Kara said back to him. I have no idea what she's talking about I feel fine.
"I feel fine.", I said to Kara and then I looked down to see that a piece of wood was sticking out of my leg.
"Yeah tell that to your leg. J'onn we're coming back, have Dr. Hamilton be ready to treat Alex.", Kara said as she gently lifted me up and fly towards the DEO. "Stay with me Al, we're almost there.", Kara said to me as I started to feel dizzy and everything was starting to go black.
"I lost a lot of blood.", I said to Kara.
"I know we're almost there, just hang on a little longer. Dr. Hamilton will patch you up.", Kara said to me as we landed in the DEO Med bay.
"We'll take it from here Kara. Go sit with Lena.", Dr. Hamilton said to Kara as Kara was placing me on a gurney.
"How do you always get yourself in danger?", Dr. Hamilton asked me which got me to chuckle.
"Just luck I guess.", I said back to her as they were cutting my pant leg.
"Bad luck if you ask me. By the way you have a very angry girlfriend on your hands. She overheard Brainy and Mr. Jones talking over the coms. She's not too happy with you.", Dr. Hamilton said to me with a smirk on her face.
"I'll have to make it up to her.", I said to her as I started to feel really tired.
"You will, we gave you a sedative so just relax and we'll get you patched up.", Dr. Hamilton said right before I fell asleep.
