Its been a few days since they got Kara back and Cat got her back home. The young hero blew out her powers in the fight and has since been resting and relaxing around the house under Cat's watchful eye.
"Kara! Mom says its time for dinner!" Carter says running through the house.
"Okay little man, stop running. Your mother hates it." Kara says coming into the hallway and grabbing the boy by the shoulders. The two walk into the kitchen and take seats at the counter.
"Whats for dinner sweetheart?" Kara asks her girlfriend.
"Carters favorite." the media mogul replies and carter fist pumps.
"Pizza!" he yells and Kara laughs
"Thank you babe."
The night passes easily with dinner and than games. Carter shows off his new skills to Kara who is very impressed while Cat watches the two from the couch with a small smile. Carter is finally put to bed and the two women wash the dishes.
"How are you feeling?" Kara asks her lover as she washes a dish before passing it off to Cat to dry.
"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" Cat asks chuckling and Kara bites her lip.
"I just wanted to make sure your okay. A lot happened the other day and we haven't talked about it. I just don't want anything to come between us in the long run." The hero says passing off another dish.
"I'm fine love. We haven't talked because i hate to relive the feelings i had when you were missing. But we can talk about it." Cat whispers drying the dish and stacking it with the others.
"I was just hoping i didn't freak you out when i asked for a baby." Kara whispers looking down at her hands. Cat swallows and stops drying to look over at her partner.
"I didn't know you even remembered it." The older blonde says
"I remember. Ive remembered the whole time i just didn't want to freak you out. I had a dream while i was in the kryptonite sleep. We were a family and had a little girl. It might be really soon but i want that with you. I want all of it with you." Kara says finally turning to Cat. The older woman has little tears in her eyes.
"I want all of those things with you to." Cat says and Kara steps closer to her wrapping her in a hug.
"i love you." Kara whispers in her ear.
"Thank you for coming back." Cat whispers back and Kara knows in that moment there is no where else she wants to be. She is going to get a ring as soon as she can. Cat Grant is going to be hers.

Kara waits in the hallway of the school for the little boy she has come to love so much. A few moments later the bell rings and the classes pour out students.
"Kara!" Carter calls running over and hugging her.
"Hey!" Kara hugs him back.
"Why are you here? Its only lunch period." He asks and the hero smiles walking towards the door of the school with her arm around him.
"I'm taking you out for lunch today." She says walking him to her car.
"Why? Is everything okay? Did you and mom break up again?" he asks exasperated and she laughs climbing in the car.
"No, we didn't. Everything is fine." She says once he is in the car.
"Don't worry kiddo. just enjoy the day," she says before pulling out of the parking lot and heading to a little diner around the corner. They enter the restaurant and order their drinks before Kara speaks to the boy.
"So I have an important question to ask you and i want you to be completely honest in your answer, okay?" she says and he looks at her worried.
"Okay?"
"I want to ask your mom to marry me? are you okay with that?" she asks him and he stares at her with a blank look on his face. The look goes on for several moments until Kara is very concerned.
"That is so awesome! I would love for you to marry my mom!" He exclaims leaping a crossed the table to hug her.
Thank god. She breathes out in relief.
"Okay well it needs to stay a secret for now. I want to surprise her." She says and he nods smiling brightly.
"But aren't you guys sorta married already? You have a bond. You are each others soul mates." he says and Kara looks at him shocked.
"How do you know about that?" she asks and he looks around sheepishly.
"I was listening the other day when you were on the phone to SuperMan," he whispers looking at his hands and Kara chuckles.
"Sorry." he mumbles
"it's okay honey. Just keep that stuff to yourself," she says and he nods.
"So when are you going to get her a ring?"
"I'm going to ask Alex to go look with me later today." She says and he bounces excitedly in his seat.
"This is the coolest thing ever!"
"I think so too," she says thinking that she has never been so happy before in her life.
Later that afternoon she takes Carter back to school and flys over to the DEO to see her sister. The hero marches through the building on a mission. Several people try to stop her to talk but she has a one track mind for her big sister.
"Kara! Hey." Alex calls when SuperGirl enters her office.
"Hey i need your help." Kara says rubbing her sweaty palms.
"Is everything okay?" Alex asks and her little sister nods.
"I need you to go ring shopping with me." The younger danvers says excitedly. Alex leans back in her chair crossing her arms and wearing an amused smirk.
