"So you wanted to see me, Miss Grant?" Were the first words out of my mouth late that evening as I stepped out onto the balcony outside of her office. I'd recently finished dealing with the Red Tornado, an android created by Dr Morrow that had turned sentient. Who said Skynet wasn't real?

Miss Grant turns to face me, a champagne flute in one hand and her other cocked in that posh uppity way she usually embodies. He hips Sashay as she draws closer in her expensive dress, the cityscape awash with lights and the stars twinkling in the sky as a beautiful backdrop. The night sky is such an amazing thing to look at, it was something I never really appreciated back home on Krypton.

"I wanted to ask you something Kira," she pauses as she takes a stance that epitomises her beauty and confidence, "How is it that you overheard what was said immediately after the board meeting?"

"I...uh...I just have really good hearing," I mutter out eventually as I stumble over my words, looking down and to the side as I do so, whilst I absent-mindedly pull on the sleeve of the cardigan I'm wearing.

Miss Grant though doesn't look convinced when I eventually meet her gaze again, "Uh huh, because I was standing right beside you and I heard nothing and they were clearly out of earshot, so I think I know what's going on."

She stalks closer until she's quite close to me, invading some of my personal space. Even though I am actually Supergirl, something I'm not going to admit to her, even I feel a little bit intimidated in her presence. She's just this powerful woman in many ways, confidant, smart, pretty and not afraid to go after what she wants and she typically gets her way the majority of the time.

I love my job as her assistant because I get to work for such an empowering and successful woman. I get to learn from a woman who shows us girls that we can compete and win against the boys, even though we have to work much harder than they do to reach the same places, and accomplish the same feats.

She raises her flute as if saluting me, "So I can safely say that this isn't the first conversation we've had...Supergirl," a triumphant smirk now plastered on her face. I start backing away slowly,

"What...what are you talking about? I'm...I'm not Supergirl. I'm just Regulargirl. I'm just Kara your assistant." She continues her slow steps towards me, the only sounds coming from the low din of noise from the city and the sound of her heels as she closes in on me.

"Take off your glasses Kira," I shake my head as if to emphasis my refusal, "But then I can't see Miss Grant."

My butt touches the railing of the balcony and I realise too late that she has me trapped as she gets all up and personal with me. The scent of her perfume is delightful but a touch overpowering in such close quarters.

"I don't believe that to be true Kira," she says as she puts her champagne flute down and stand before me hands on hips. I make no move to take my glasses off as we begin a stare down. After a few seconds, she brings a hand up and I lean away, thinking she's going to take my glasses off. However, she just frees my ponytail so my hair is now loose and flowing.

"I won't ask you again Kira because after you've done so, we have much to discuss." I cross my arms refusing to confirm what she thinks she knows, "I'm not her and this won't prove anything, other than my poor eyesight," a few more seconds pass and I add, "I'm going to go now if that's alright?"

I make a move to step around her and that's when it happens. Her hand darts up toward my face, but instead of removing my glasses, that hand slides past my cheek and into my hair where she grips firmly, but not too firmly. It's in this way that she pulls my mouth down onto hers and she kisses me.

It's not like any other kiss that I've had before in my limited romantic experience. Her lips feel soft against mine as I taste the gloss that coats them and I feel my face heat up and the blood pounding in my ears as my heart beats faster. But I quickly end it not long after it starts with a gentle push that causes her to stagger a little but not lose balance.

"I...um...uh…I definitely should go, Miss Grant," I quickly step around her and with my head down I race out of the building. When I hit the ground floor I receive two quick texts, one from Alex,

Alex: We have an incident at the City Plaza, we need you there now.

Me: On my way.

The other text I received from Miss Grant,

Miss Grant: Like I said, we have much to discuss. See you tomorrow, bright and early, Supergirl.

I try not to think too hard about the implications of that unexpected kiss with my boss too much as I take off running down an alley as I remove my office attire in favour of my Supergirl outfit as I mentally ready myself to take on another threat to National City.

Cat

If you're wondering why I chose to kiss my assistant Kira, or should I say Supergirl, then I can assure you it had nothing to do with the champagne I'd been drinking out of the flute I was holding once again. Well, I suppose it gave me that extra nudge of courage, but that was about it.

The trouble now was, who was I more attracted too? Kira or Supergirl? Yes they are one and the same, at least I was 99% sure but I had known Kira longer when she wasn't Supergirl and in recent times, given what she had done for me, I was begrudgingly respectful of her.

I saw many similarities between her and I, plus she possessed many qualities I wanted in a partner. As for Supergirl, well what's not to be impressed with. Yes, there's obviously the whole do-gooder persona she has, but what attracted me the most was that here was this empower, beautiful woman who was rapidly becoming a rolemodel for women young and old to look up to. One who showed the rest of us that we are strong and capable, able to fully compete and win in this male-centric world of ours.

I sighed, as I lifted the flute to my lips and felt the bubbly liquid sizzle down my throat, warming me slightly. A light breeze was blowing across this magnificent city I lived in. I pulled out my small cell phone and stared at it for more than a few moments, before that liquid courage kicked in once more and I sent a quick, brusque message to Kira, informing her that we had much to discuss and not just about the kiss we had recently shared.

However, I knew very little about my assistant, the mystery was just part of her charm, but I did intend to chat with her tomorrow armed with more facts about her and her life in general. Research, something that any good journalist does when covering a story. True this was more about potential implications in the future for my personal & private life, but it didn't make the need to do my homework on her any less.

An audibly whoosh sound cut through the muted noise of the city below, my eyes darting up to the night sky and it was there that they caught a glimpse of Supergirl as she streaked across the night sky, no doubt off to avert yet another crisis which was plaguing National city. It was when she had moved out of sight that an idea occurred to me.

I quickly dialled in a number on my cell phone and listened to it ring a few times,

"Hello?"

"Good Evening, it's me. I need you to conduct a thorough search of someone for me."

"So nice to hear from you again Cat. Anything in particular you'd like me to look for?" The voice on the other end of the line is rough and gravelly, perhaps indicating a life of smoking. I don't know for sure as I only know what I absolutely need to know about this individual.

"Nothing in particular, just anything and everything you can find."

"Understood. So who is it that I'm putting under the microscope this time?"

I took a deep breath, hoping that this would potentially shed some more light, "My assistant, Kira Danvers."

A/N: So that's the end of the 1st installment! Let me know what you think. Follows/Favorites are encouraged. I've got a few ideas for how i'd like the main story as well as the romance to play out and figured I'd ease into it.
