Chapter 2:
"I'm never drinking again". I say as I slowly get up off a couch and put my hands on my head.
Buzz Buzz
"Hello?" I whisper.
"Fraser? You need to get to CatCo now!"
"Okay Kara, I'll be there soon".
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I walk in with a coffee in my hand. I'm wearing dark blue chinos, with brown dress shoes along with a white long-sleeved shirt with a blue bow tie. Plus, the sunglasses.
"Good morning Fraser!"
"Morning Jayne" I say quietly as I rub my temple.
"Rough night?"
"No. No it wasn't a rough night I just um had too many sodas.". I say as I take my papers and walk to my desk.
"L-Corp is hosting a party this weekend, it's a gala to raise funds for that attack on the children's hospital".
I quickly run to my desk and sit down, Kara sees me.
"Well, Lena. Fraser and I would love to go to the gala". Kara walks over to me and takes off my sunglasses. "Wouldn't we?"
"Why is it so bright in here? Can't they turn off the lights?" I whisper as I try to reach for my sunglasses.
"Fraser hi! Of course, you can come! Just wear a nice suit, which wouldn't be hard for you". Lena says.
I turn and look at her.
"What I mean is, um. I should be heading back to L-Corp". Lena says as she quickly walks away.
"You're going to a party! With Lena!". Kara shouts. "Sorry!". Kara says as she hands me back my sunglasses.

"Fraser!" Kara comes flying over to me.
"Kara I'm trying to sleep". I mumble into the papers on my desk. Kara lifts my head up.
"Mon- I mean Mike and Eve were, were, were"
"Were doing what Kara?"
"You know…. the thing that 2 people do when they love each other". Kara says as she turns a light shade of pink.
"Good for Mike then". I say, as Kara drops my head onto my desk.
"Owww. What was that for?" I say rubbing my head.
"How can you say that 'good for Mike' I just thought you were different". Kara says.
"Kara wait you think? God no! I just mean that its not my business to get involved in other people's love lives. Okay?" I say.
"So, you weren't looking to see if Lena has a boyfriend?" Kara says as she looks at my computer.
"That is not what it looks like. I, um, I. Winn asked me to look this up. You know Winn!" I say as I quickly shut down to web page.
"Yeah. Winn". Kara says as she walks away.
"Kara, no wait its not what it looked like okay? I was just checking!" I shout.
"Does everybody say that? 'its not what it looks like', because Eve says it and now you". Mike says.
"What no! Just um, get back to work" I say as I sit down at my desk.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Kara, I'm not going to this party!" I say as Kara bursts through my apartment door.
"Oh, you are going! You are going to go and see Lena in an amazing dress and you are going to have fun" Kara says as she heads straight to my wardrobe.
"Lena would look good in anything. Wait no, no, no I see what you are doing. I'm not going". I say as I see Kara looking at something.
I walk over, and I see her looking at photos.
"Wow! Look at all these photos. You've been everywhere!" Kara says.
"Yeah most of them, will be when I was on tour". I say.
"Who's this?" Kara asks as she points to a photo with me and another guy in it smiling.
"He um, he is my dad. We don't talk anymore". I say as I grab the photo and put it back in its place.
"I'm sorry I didn't know" Kara says as she looks at me.
"Its um, its okay. You didn't know. So, what am I going to wear to this party eh?" I say trying to change the subject.
"Right the party". Kara says. "I've got it". She says smiling.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Just talk to her". Winn says to me.
"Winn when have you talked to a woman who is head of a billion-pound company?" I say.
"What is 'pound'?" Winn says laughing.
"You know what I mean. Billion-dollar company". I say as I start to walk away.
I take 2 glasses of champagne and I start walking towards Lena.
"Ms Luthor". I say giving her a glass of champagne.
"Fraser! Wow you look amazing, you scrub up well". Lena says taking the glass.
"Not as beautiful as you, and I just said that out, loud did I?" I say laughing.
"Its fine. I've had worse". Lena says laughing.
"Ms Luthor you need to greet your guests". A girl comes up to Lena
"Hey I know you. Amy isn't it?" I say with a smile.
"Hello Mr McGregor. Did you make a scene to get into this party?" Amy says as she glares at me as she slowly backs away.
BOOM!
"My, my, my look at how many pretty things there are" A man walk in with two other men.
"Oh, you have picked the wrong party to crash". Lena says walking up to them.
"I don't think I have princess. Listen up everyone I want every diamond, watch, wallet and every piece of jewellery you can think of and no one gets hurt!". The man says as he rips Lena's neckless off.
"You two don't" Winn says as he comes up to James and me.
"Hey! I've got my wallet here so why don't you come and take it" I say walking up to the guy standing close to Lena.
The guy starts to aim his gun at me. I quickly pull Lena behind me and hold onto her hand.
"Did you really think I wouldn't be here". Supergirl says as she hovers from above.
"Actually, I was counting on it" The guy says as she fires at Supergirl.
"Everybody find cover!" I shout, as Lena lets go of my hand and runs.
I run up to a guy that his firing at the guests. "Hey!" I quickly turn the guy around and punch him but he fires his weapon and I go flying across the floor and under the stage.
"Winn? Lena?!-" I say.
"It is not what it looks like! We have a thing to you know help". Winn says.
"I will deal with you in a minute!" I say as the guy grabs hold of my leg and yanks me out from under the stage.
I quickly kick the guy's arm, letting go of my leg. I jump up and start punching him. The guy falls onto the floor.
"Look I don't want to hurt you so drop the weapon". I say as I reach down to get the weapon. The guy turns and looks at me.
"Behind you". He says laughing.
I turn around and I'm met with a punch. I stumble back but manage to stay on my feet. I run at the guy who just swing his gun at me and collides with the side of my face. I feel blood come rushing down from my left eyebrow. As the man begins to fire up his weapon again. Supergirl comes down and takes to blast for me. I go flying back with Supergirl to see that James is on the floor as well.
"Alright?" I say to James.
"Never better"
"Lights out Supergirl". The guy says as he fires his weapon along with the two others. Their guns stop working and the police take them away. Winn and Lena come out from under the stage, Lena quickly fixes her dress. I look at Winn and Lena so does Supergirl and James.
"Oh, we weren't under there doing – we did it!" Winn says.
I look at Winn.
"I mean we did it, we stopped to guns!" Winn says quickly.

I open my freezer and grab some frozen peas and put the over my left eye. I turn on the TV and watch the news. I'm wearing a plain white short sleeved top and a pair of grey sweatpants.
Knock knock
"Just coming" I shout as I put down the frozen peas on the table and walk to the door.
"Lena! Hi! Please come in". I say as I move to let Lena past.
"Sorry I didn't mean to intrude Kara gave me your address and I just wanted to make sure that you're okay".
"No, no its fine and yeah I'm fine nothing that a bag of frozen peas and feeling sorry for myself won't fix". I say as I point to the bag of frozen peas.
"And I also wanted to say thank you for standing up to those guys and saving me" Lena says as she walks closer to me.
"Um, well I think that I should be thanking you because you saved me, with that machine thing". I say.
"No, its fine" Lena says as she put her hand on my arm.
I lean down and kiss Lena on the lips. She moves her hands to my neck and my hands find her waist deepening the kiss. We stumble to the table, I lift her up and sit her on the table.
"I knew it!"
We break apart.
"Kara!" We both shout.
