Kara lay limp with her arms wrapped around a sleeping Cat, the sun shining warm and bright on her face. The memories of yesterdays events running through her mind, after their little adventure on the pier they came home and Cat immediately fell asleep but not without dragging Kara to bed with her. Smiling Kara nuzzled her face into the back of Cat's neck and breathed her in. But she was soon interrupted by her phone going off, reluctantly removing herself from around Cat she gave a guilty look as she saw Cat shiver without her warmth. Pulling the blanket around Cat in her absence and grabbing her phone she took the call out on the balcony.
"You better have a good reason for interrupting my wonderful sleep this morning, Alex!"
"Kara. We got Cat's test results."
Kara could hear the reluctance and worry in Alex's voice, "What? What is it?"
Alex clears her throat and thinks about how she should word this but there's no easy way around saying this, "I think what we're dealing with here is Cadmus territory, Cat's DNA has been genetically modified. Those track marks, the blood under her fingernails, to go through your DNA being altered like that. It's painful. Her blood is showing signs of Kryptonian DNA, your DNA. If she hasn't shown any signs of it now then maybe they failed in their experiment. But be careful with her Kara. Either Cadmus erased her memories on purpose or she blocked them out because it was painful for her. Otherwise she looks physically fine, her rape kit came back fine. How's she doing anyways? Anymore memories return?"
Kara stood there trying to collect her thoughts, Cat's DNA was altered, but she hadn't shown any signs of it. Maybe Alex was right, maybe it didn't work. Pulling herself out of it she peered back in to a sleep Cat, "No more memories but she's doing fine, we had some fun yesterday, I showed her around the pier and took her mind off of things."
"Kara maybe you should try taking her to CatCo and see if anything triggers her memories to come back, can't keep her away from there forever. People will start to ask questions and I doubt that's a media storm that any of us want."
"You're right, I'll take her today and make an appearance. Maybe something will come back to her."
"Okay, keep me updated, I'll let you know if I find anything else."
Kara hung up and sighed and went back inside stopping at Cat's side of the bed and reached a hand out to move hair out of her face. Kara smiled and placed a kiss on her head and then went to the kitchen to make them some breakfast before they discussed going to CatCo.
As Kara was finishing up their breakfast a Cat she was going to have to get used to, sleep crazed hair, sweatpants and a long shirt came out yawning and took the coffee offered to her from Kara's grip.
Kara smiled at her, "I don't think I'm ever going to get used to this version of you but I love it."
"Hmm, well it definitely is more relaxing than the office," Cat took a sip of her coffee and directed a smile up at the beaming Kara.
"Well, today we have to go see Alex at the DEO, she said they got your test results and I think it best I leave it to Alex to explain things. But everything's fine….I think. So don't worry."
"Darling, I think you're more worried than I am. But don't worry I think my memories are all back now, except for one blank spot from when they….so returning to work sounds like a good idea after this, hmmm?"
Kara let out a breath of air and laughed serving up a plate of fruit, eggs, sausage, and toast and placing it in front of Cat.
"I think getting back to work would be a great idea."
"So eager to get back to pleasing me, Kara?"
Kara gulped and blushed stifling her answer with a bite of toast, she didn't even need to answer that question for Cat to know the answer.
First breakfast and then to the DEO and hopefully to work later after that. Hopefully this new information doesn't mean anything and Cat is fine, she hasn't exhibited any of her own traits so maybe Cadmus failed. For now Kara was just going to enjoy these new days she was experiencing with Cat. Kara took another bite of toast and just smiled at the Supergirl necklace around Cat's neck.
Kara wished she could freeze this moment for a little while more because she knew it wasn't going to last much longer.
