One month had past since Winn and Lena's first date. They had both decided to make every Friday designated date night since Lena was usually busy during the week. He took her to the movies and to dinner. They were still in the getting to know each other stages but both of them couldn't be happier. Tonight they were going to the museum to check out an exhibit Lena was interested in. As for right now, Lena was meeting up with Kara for lunch.
"I feel like I haven't seen you in awhile. You seem busier than normal." said Kara
"I know I'm sorry. LCorp has been very busy recently. And I kind of, may have, started seeing someone" Lena said the last part a bit quietly.
"What!" Kara replied enthusiastically. "Why am I just hearing about this now. Who is he?"
"I didn't say anything because it's fairly new. It's only been a few weeks" Lena answered.
"Do I get a name?" Kara enquired.
"Actually, he's a friend of yours." Lena said. "Winn"
"Huh. He never mentioned it to me."
"Probably because it's so new. I hope that's okay with you. Me dating your friend." Lena said nervously.
"Of course it's okay! You're my friend too." Kara reassured her. "I think it's great. As long as you guys are happy and you definitely seem happy lately"
"I am happy. I know it's only been a month but I really like him. We're actually going out again tonight."
"That's great! You'll have to tell me all about it next time we get lunch."
"Definitely."
Across town Winn was getting lunch with James.
"By the way, I'm busy again tonight so you'll be on your own if that's okay" said Winn
"No worries. I wouldn't be much of hero if I couldn't handle some nights on my own. But i have to ask. This is the fourth Friday in a row. Everything okay?"
"Yea everything's cool." Winn started scratching his head nervously. "I've actually started seeing someone."
"That's great man. Who?"
"Lena Luthor"
"You're kidding," James replied shocked. "What's she like?"
"She's great. I really like her. We actually have a lot in common" Winn replied smiling.
"Well that makes sense. You're both super smart. How'd this even start" James asked.
"We ran into each other in a bar on Valentine's Day and I guess you could say the rest is history. We've decided to go out every Friday since she's pretty busy running her company during the week and I'm busy doing Guardian stuff with you. Not that's she knows about that. I would never tell anyone your secret." Winn replied.
"Dude I know. You're my best friend and I trust you. And i'm happy for you. Maybe in the future we can all hang out, provided i'm not the awkward third wheel" said James.
"I'm sure she wouldn't mind getting to know you. And you're only single because you're not trying Olsen. Look at you."
"Ha ha" James deadpanned. "Anyways, have fun."
"Thanks man"
Lena was at her desk finishing up a report so she could leave to meet Winn at the museum. Suddenly, there was a knock at her door. Her secretary walked in, "Ms. Luther? There's a Winn Schott standing outside. He says he's here to see you and he has a bouquet of flowers in his hands."
Lena smiled, "You can let him. And Jess, makes sure Winn has security clearance so he can stop by whenever he wants."
Winn smiled at Lena as he walked in, "Top level security clearance. Does this mean we're going steady."
Lena chuckled, "I would hope. I spend every Friday with you and I told Kara we were dating when I had lunch with her earlier today."
"What a coincidence. I told James the same thing earlier too. Anyways, I know the museum is near your office so I figured I'd surprise you and pick you up. These are for you." Winn handed her the bouquet.
"Thank you. They're beautiful" Lena took the bouquet and put it in a vase.
"Just like you." She turned back and kissed him. They gazed into each other eyes for a second before Winn broke the silence.
"Are you ready to go?"
"Yep. Let me just grab my coat and we're set" Lena turned back for her coat and the two of them walked hand in hand to the museum.
The exhibit was nice and after they decided he'd walk her home as it wasn't super cold tonight. They talked on the way to her apartment building still holding hands. There were lots of laughs and smiles. As the weeks had gone by they were slowly opening up to one another. Eventually they reached the front of her building.
"Well this is me" said Lena as she turn in front of him.
Winn moved forward and kissed her. He immediately put his hand on her hips. Lena put her hands around his neck and they stayed like that for a few minutes until she broke the kiss for air.
"So, I'll call you later." she whispered.
Winn was a bit deflated. He was hoping she'd invite him up but he didn't mention it. He meant what he said about waiting.
"Of course. We'll talk later. Goodnight" he smiled.
"Night."
