Weeks pass, and they don't speak of 'the incident', Kara and Lena beginning to spend more, and more time together as their secrets now hang in the light of day.
Ever since they have started hanging out together Lena has had an office beside hers converted, it used to be for the COO, but with everything, since Lex, the room had been abandoned. In an attempt to make the most of their time together Lena had a one-way privacy field erected, and the wall removed. She then had the room turned into a lounge-like room with a desk for Kara to do her reporting from and an exit for Supergirl emergencies.
Kara had taken to it like a fish to water. She loved spending time with Lena, there was just something about her that made it so easy for Kara and her to be together. Snapper had leapt at the opportunity to get rid of Kara from the office, let alone the exclusive access she now has to Lena.
Alex on the other had hadn't been especially thrilled, she still doesn't trust Lena and worries about Kara in a building where she knows they keep Kryptonite. Although after she and Kara had a few heated arguments about it, she backed off accepting that Kara would do as she wanted.
Kara was still a little confused as to why Maggie had winked at her when she insisted she was safe with Lena. Sometimes she just doesn't understand the tiny detective
Kara spends every day with Lena most of the time the privacy field is down, Lena's board almost has a fit when they realise that the woman is conducting business meetings and reviews with a reporter in the room. Lena, however, tells them to 'kiss her ass' something that she had never before considered saying. The board in their utter surprise at this don't say a word simply biding their time in case they turn out to be right.
They don't.
Kara visits Catco once a day for the next few months to get assignments and hand in work. That is until one evening Snapper crosses the line. He asks that she spy on Lena, he asks that she use her access to expose a new deal that L-corp has coming out soon. Kara tells him to go to hell. That night she takes the last of her things and her two weeks severance from Catco. That night as she sits beside Lena on the couch in her apartment she receives a text.
I'm proud of you Kara
-Cat
And as she and Lena sit beside each other on her couch she knows there's nothing she would ever do to betray the woman beside her.
