This is a sequel to Chapter 1

Thanks for the reviews!

Please give me prompts for oneshots. :)

Although it was winter, it was the bright sun shining through the window that woke Alex up. It was also the first thing she noticed before remembering the events of yesterday. She felt her heart sink, images of her pointing a gun at her own father flashing in front of her eyes like a movie. She tried to block the memories out by squeezing her eyes shut but it only made her head pound. That was when she remembered the four shots of whiskey she had before passing out in Maggie's arms. She must have carried her to bed. Alex turned around, half expecting her girlfriend to be asleep next to her, only to find the other half of the bed empty and a note on the nightstand. It was short but very descriptive.

Hey. Kara's on the couch. You two need some time alone. Love you. Sawyer.

The first think Alex felt was joy. And then she remembered another part of the day before. A crucial part. The part she basically told her sister she wasn't part of the family. Alex sighed and rested her pounding head in her hands. How could she have been so stupid? All sisters fought but Alex knew that she should never have said something like that to Kara. There weren't many things in the world that could actually hurt the girl of steel, but feeling like her sister disowned her was definitely one of the things that could potentially break her.

"You know what would be great Danvers?" Alex whispered to herself, "if you had the ability to think before you speak." She took a deep breath and headed into the hall.

One thing Alex hadn't noticed when she woke up was the sweet smell that lingered through her apartment. It grew stronger and stronger as she walked down the hall. She found the source by the stove in the kitchen. It was Kara. Well, not Kara, but the pancakes she was cooking. Wait, cooking? Kara doesn't cook. Not on her own, anyway. As Alex watched her sister, she realized this very moment could be marked as the moment Alex Danvers was most grateful for her sisters' powers, especially her freeze breath that could put out a potential fire. As she laughed at the thought, Kara looked up from her masterpiece.

"Morning! Do you want pancakes?" Kara smiled, waving the pan around and almost dropping whatever was on it. Seeing that Kara had only hust started, Alex walked over to her and took the pan out of her hands.

"Let's talk first. And then I'll cook." She said, looking around at the flour-covered furniture with a slight smile. Kara looked up at her sister, the light she had in her eyes disappearing immediately. She didn't want to talk about it. She just wanted to forget. She looked down and walked to the couch where she had slept the previous night. Alex followed, sitting down next to her sister.

"I didn't mean what I said," Alex started.

"I know," Kara replied, almost automatically. It was as if she knew exactly what her sister was going to say. Alex seemed to pick up on this because her heart started beating faster.

"I know you know. But you have to believe it. You have to believe that I need you as much as you need me. We need each other," Alex explained, suddenly feeling insecure.

"I'd be lost without you," Kara said, a hopeless laugh escaping her lips.

"You're the girl of steel. You'd manage."

"Don't say that. I wouldn't," Kara shivered, even the thought of a life without Alex too scary to handle. Alex sighed, moving a little closer to her sister.

"You know who you are?" Alex asked. Kara looked at her, confused by the question.

"Supergirl?" she frowned.

"That too," Alex nodded.

"Kara?"

"Sure," Alex replied. "But most of all, you're my little sister. Nothing is ever going to change that."

Kara nodded. She felt like if she hadn't cried herself to sleep last night, she would be crying right now. She wanted to tell her sister about what happened with Maggie yesterday, but she knew that bringing up her panic attack would only worry her sister.

"Can we just have ice cream?" Kara asked after a minute.

"Kara."

"What?"

"It's 10 in the morning."

"Yeah."

Alex shook her head and laughed, getting up. Looking through the freezer, she only found one tub. She frowned and looked back at Kara.

"Where's the chocolate one?" she asked her very guilty looking sister.

"Oh, yeah, I ate that. At like, three in the morning," Kara explained. "What?" she added, spotting her sister's disapproving look. "I sleep eat!"

"Sleep eating is not a thing," Alex replied.

"It totally is," Kara argued.

"Not on this planet," Alex laughed.

"Well, that doesn't mean much. I'm an alien and I don't care."

Alex smiled, looking at her little sister. Her little sister, the girl of steel, was the most human out of everyone she ever knew.
