Maggie and Alex had finished moving into their new house only three months ago and since the day, they got the house James and Winn had been trying to convince them to have the whole super friends group over to their house. They had always come up with some excuse as to why they were too busy to do it but after Kara pulled out the puppy pout, they finally conceded defeat to the rest of the group. Maggie did not like cooking, and Alex was not going to be able to cook enough for a kryptonian and a Martian to eat so they had decided on going with a BBQ it would be fun and easy Maggie was an expert at barbeque and James was not too bad, either so she could always get James to help.
They had planned to invite more of the agents from the deo but they decided against it figuring the two of them can only afford so much food before they drive themselves into bankruptcy, so they settled on bringing Vasquez and Lucy to come over to the house with the group Vasques had been avoiding spending time with them since Mon-el had shown up but since he left earth, she had been slowly making her way back no one could blame her for not wanting to be around the space frat boy.
Surprisingly, Kara was not the first to show up. It was James ready with extra meat to grill up for the group. Maggie was prepared with her special BBQ sauce it was a family recipe her aunt had taught her when she was living with her. James helped set up the back yard with Maggie the two had yet to get a dog Alex saying first they needed to do research and such but Maggie was pretty sure she just didn't know how to pick between any of the adorable animals, so she was going with the above option.
" So am I going to get to learn the famous family recipe Maggie" James said nudging the shorter woman at his elbow. A joking smile was on his face Maggie and James had found that they had quite a bit in common and James knew all too well what it was to date a government agent, so he had always been open to going to the bar with Maggie when ever Alex would have to stay late with paper work it had been a quick friendship for those two.
" Not a chance olsen" Maggie said back as she picked at the steak on the grill. The two continued bantering for a while between checking on the meat on the grill and setting up the table. A knock at the door interrupted the two as, they worked.
" Lucy and Susan yall actually came this is great" James said as he opened the door for the two and engulfed them in a bear hug. He and Lucy had just recently gotten to where they were friends again after so many months of awkwardness it had taken a while for the two to realize that before they had been anything else they had been friends, and they could go back to that.
" Hey James" Susan said as she pulled back from the hug she had never been much on physical contact. The two stepped inside the house and took in the surroundings the house was well furnished, and it gave off a vibe that screamed home it was the perfect place for Alex and Maggie, and the three could certainly see how the two had fallen in love with being in this house.
Over the next hour, the rest of the super friends showed up each with a small house warming gift seeing as the couple had also refused to have a house warming party it seemed that the two had most certainly decided not to allow many people into their home, seeing as how nice the home was it was understandable. The group got comfortable out in the back yard, they had horse shoes set up along with lawn darts Lucy and Alex were immersed in a game of Lawn darts as Kara tried to convince Cat and Lena that they needed to know how to play horse shoe and how could an alien know how to play the game and two people raised on earth not even know what the game was.
Cat finally made a deal with Kara that if she won the game that Kara had to give her an exclusive supergirl interview and sign Carter's supergirl poster. Kara had simply smiled and agreed on the condition that if she won she would be allowed to decorate her desk for all the holidays for the year Cat had a strict rule on decorating for holidays.
" Go Kara!" Alex said from behind her sister seeing as she was the only one who was not utterly terrified of the wrath of cat grant. Maggie was looking over her shoulder at the game as it began after hearing her girlfriend shouting for her sister. Alex rarely got vocal around people, unless she was completely relaxed Maggie always loved knowing that Alex was relaxed enough around the group to let so many of her walls down.
The game ended with Kara winning but agreeing to sign Carter's poster any ways, there was no arguing the fact that Kara most certainly had a soft spot for the kid. The rest of the night went on with the group talking happily and playing games enjoying themselves.
" Ok food's ready guys" Maggie shouted to the group. Kara immediately rushed forward using super speed to grab three plates of food for herself Lena was behind her shaking her head at the adorable kryptonians antics. Lena could not help but smile though Kara always got to the food firsts it was one of the first things she had learned when she had entered the little group of friends, no one gets between Kar Zor-el and her food. Alex walked over to her girlfriend plate in hand ready to eat she leaned in and gave Maggie a kiss on the cheek, and a quick thank you before grabbing her dinner.
"Maggie that was amazing you have to make that for me some time" Kara said as she licked the little bit of sauce left on her fingers Kara, though she ate a lot she would rarely use bad manners unless the food was just far too tasty to waste any. Maggie and Alex deemed the night a success as everyone left with full stomachs and smiles along with an almost crushingly tight hug from one Kara Danvers. The group decided that they would have to do this again in another month or so.
