Karry One Shots

Disclaimer: I never own anything.

AN: Okay just to make one thing clear I do have a beta; Terrance Sigma is my sort-of beta. He reads over the chapter before I post and helps me get anything that doesn't make sense, but please remember this is just for fun. There will be errors neither of us get.

Okay so read this for a moment because I need to do a DC TV Universe Geography lesson.

Metropolis: Located somewhere around where New York is in the real world. Current place Kara (The Danvers) is living would be a couple hours away, like in an upstate New York kind of thing.

Star(ling) City: Also located on the East coast a bit more down south than Metropolis.

Central City: Located on the West Coast in like California.

National City: Also located on the west Coast not far from Central. The two will be considered sister cities in this story (see below).

Now I don't know if in the crossover they will say National City is located in Supergirl universe at the same place Central is in Flash universe (so National would be like an Earth-3 Central) but I want to keep them separate here.

Now…

A Very Karry Summer

Lois had to go to Central City on assignment so Clark and herself had decided to take time off and make a vacation out of it. When Kara heard she begged them to take her. Clark seemed hesitant but Lois told him to be nice and take her, so the three went all the way to Central by plane. Clark seeming a bit annoyed since he could have flown there faster himself.

"Next time we're flying here with Lois on my back," Clark whispered to Kara after they had finally claimed their luggage. Kara gave who gave him a look. "You can do a long flight and taking the luggage would be easy between the two of us."

"I'm not…" Kara stopped when she saw Barry waiting for her and ran over to him. Barry hugged Kara with a big smile on his face as they then kissed. "I thought I would have to wait until school for that again."

"Me too," Barry said and then noticed Lois and Clark. "Hi Clark, Lois. Joe let me borrow the car to come get you."

"We could have taken a cab," Clark said.

"Clark it's nice of him," Lois said with a smile. "Good to see you again Barry."

"You too," Barry said going to pick up Kara's bag she dropped it.

"You don't have to," Kara said but Barry just smiled and refused to let Kara take the bag as he led them to the car and opened the trunk.

Barry got in the driver's seat and was a little nervous when Clark got into the passenger seat leaving the girls in the back. "Where are you staying?" Barry asked and used the GPS system in the car to find the hotel Clark said. "So Kara I asked Joe if he could pull a favor for me and get us in to see my father. He managed to be able to get us in a room with him. No glass between, no phones, so we can actually talk. Joe has to be present though and my father will have to keep the handcuffs on but it's the best we could do. You up to it?"

"Yeah," Kara said. "I've been wanting to meet your dad. When is it?'

"Tomorrow," Barry said. "And Iris wants a girl's night with you one day before you return home. Apparently a night I am forbidden access to."

Kara laughed as she said "Sounds fun."

The rest of the ride was in silence until they got to the hotel. Clark and Lois took the luggage from the trunk as Kara and Barry kissed. "Look how happy she is," Lois said seeing the smile on Kara's face. "Aren't you happy you brought her."

"I guess," Clark said not going to deny he was always happy to make his cousin happy. "I love making Kara happy and she'll be busy with her friends so we'll have our vacation to ourselves anyway."

"Why do you want a vacation to ourselves so bad?" Lois asked.

Clark didn't respond; just smiled. "Kara, you can spend all day tomorrow with him. We got to get checked in and then grab some dinner," Clark said. They hadn't had an early flight so the day was more than halfway over even with the three-hour time difference.

"I'll see you soon," Barry said. "Love you."

"Love you more," Kara said back and Barry returned with a 'I love you more'. Lois laughed, as the 'love you' repetitions continued.

Clark gave the bag he was carrying to Lois and went over to pick Kara up. "Bye Barry," Clark said and walked away with Clark picking Kara up, moving away and Lois laughing. Barry hid a giggle as well as he got back into the car.

"Put me down Clark," Kara said as they got into the hotel lobby. Clark let Kara down to the floor. "That was not funny."

"It kind of was," Lois said.

"Do you know how annoyingly sweet you and Barry can be? Say I love you. Don't argue over who loves who more," Clark said. Kara stuck out her tongue at Clark and then started walking away. "Oh how mature. Where are you going?"

"Bathroom," Kara said pointing at the restroom sign she was heading towards and then disappeared behind the girl room door.

Lois laughed. "Go check us in. I'm going to talk to her," Lois said heading into the bathroom. "Kara? You okay?"

"Fine," Kara said and Lois waited for her to appear from behind the stall and go to wash her hands.

"You know your cousin loves you," Lois said and Kara nodded. "It's just you and Barry are in that young love faze. Where the whole world seems magical when you're together and sometimes it's annoying to other people. Especially people who care about you and are worried about what will happen when it's time to go to the next step. If you'll be able to go to the next step or if this will crash and burn leaving broken hearts. For what its worth I think you and Barry are cute and can make it. Clark is just looking out for his baby cousin."

"I'm tired of that excuse," Kara said after Lois was done. "Especially since I was born 13 years before him.' She whispered that part. "But thank you Lois and I'll try to be less annoying. It has just been a while since me and Barry saw each other. We were excited."

"See there you… wait you were born 13 years before him?" Lois said the words finally reaching her head. Clark had not told her that. Kara headed toward the bathroom door. "Kara I need explanations."

-Superflash-

The next day Kara woke up excited to go with Barry to meet his father. "What time is Barry picking you up?" Clark asked.

"Soon. I told them I would meet them in front of the hotel," Kara said.

"Okay, any chance you can stay with them tonight?" Clark asked.

"Wait first you're being a pain and annoying about my boyfriend and now you want me to stay at his house?" Kara questioned confused. "Choose a side Clark."

"I want you to stay at Iris's house in her room far away from him," Clark said. "But I do want you out of the hotel room tonight."

"Why?" Kara asked.

"I made reservations at a fancy restaurant with Lois and then have other plans," Clark said as Kara looked at her confused. "We might want to celebrate a little bit here." Kara still seemed confused and Clark looked around. Clark used his x-ray vision to make sure Lois was not coming back into the room. Once he saw she was not there he took a small box out of his pocket. "I'm going to give her this." Clark opened the box to show a diamond ring.

"What is it her birthday?" Kara asked not seeming to realize what Clark was showing her.

"No," Clark said giving Kara a look.

"Well it's not a holiday," Kara said.

"I'm going to get down on one knee…" Clark said wondering how far this would go.

"One knee? Why?" Kara asked clearly still not understanding what Clark was referencing.

"I'm asking her to marry me and you have to watch more romantic movies," Clark said putting the ring away as understanding came on Kara's face. "I sometimes forget how alien you are." Clark spoke the truth. Sometimes it seemed like Kara was fully human and then something went completely over her head. Clark knew she spent her childhood on Krypton and wondered if there would always be some alien to her. "I love you Kara but I want you out of the room tonight."

"Sure, I'll text Barry and ask him if it's okay," Kara said taking out her cell phone and sending a message to Barry who responded not long later saying that Joe was fine with it. "It's set. I'll grab some things." Kara put her pajamas, toothbrush, and a change of clothes in her carry-on bag.

Her phone binged. "Barry outside. Good luck Clark," Kara said hugging her cousin as Lois walked in. "I'm spending the night at Barry's so see you tomorrow Lois." Kara didn't wait for Lois to ask the question that was coming as she ran down to the lobby and to the front where Barry and Joe were waiting.

Kara got into the back seat putting her bag next to her. "So not that I'm not happy your spending the night but why is your cousin letting you?" Barry asked.

"He just has this thing and he's doing something and… you know I don't know," Kara said. "Hi Joe."

"Okay you're the worst liar in the world," Barry said as Joe said hi. "Come on spill."

"He's asking Lois to marry him and wants me gone for the night," Kara said truthfully.

"Oh," Barry responded bemusedly and then he and Kara talked over the things they could do that night while Joe drove.

"We're here," Joe said as he parked the car.

Joe had to talk to some people but they were finally in a room with a table and a guard led Henry in leading him to the chair where he sat. "No touching," the guard warned as he walked out. Joe stood off to the side to give them some privacy.

"Dad," Barry said with a smile as the man smiled back. "I wanted you to meet my girlfriend. This is Kara."

"Hi sir," Kara said as Henry turned to face her.

"You're the one dating my son?" Henry said after looking her over. Kara nodded. "To bring her here you must be serious about her." The question was directed at Barry.

"I am," Barry said. "I love Kara."

Henry didn't smile. "You two are very young for love," Henry said and Kara could almost see where this was going. Her family had done this to Barry enough times. "And Kara you're a beautiful girl. How long before another handsome guy asks you out and you dump Barry like that."

"Dad," Barry said wanting to stop this but Kara put a hand on Barry's shoulder.

"Barry let me," Kara said and Barry looked at her and nodded seeing the look in her eyes. "I'm not like that Henry. I'm not just dating your son because he's good looking, which he is. I love Barry. We have a lot in common including this" she indicated Henry himself.

"You have a parent in jail?" Henry asked.

"No my parents died when I was young. I lost almost everything except my cousin and a foster family who took me in. No offense but no one in this room can understand that pain. No one but Barry," Kara said. "And I'm kind of sick and tired of people assuming we are going to fail because we're young. Yes we're young. Yes we might not have had too many relationships before this, but both of us have been through so much in our lives. It unusual to find someone who understands our pain the way we do, but he's your son. You're concerned so give me your warning."

"Don't hurt him," Henry said looking at Kara knowing everything she said was true. "Don't play with him or his feelings."

"I wouldn't dream of it," Kara said. "Now this is usually the part where my family threatens to kill Barry if he hurts me, but considering you're in jail how about we skip that part and go to the part where Barry yells at you for being overprotective?"

Henry couldn't help but smile. He hadn't expected her to be like this. "Faced with a man convicted of murder and you're not afraid," Henry said.

"A man in jail for a murder he did not commit doesn't scare me," Kara said.

"You believe Barry," Henry said use to people not believing Barry.

"I believe Barry, my cousin, Clark Kent, believes Barry, his girlfriend, Lois Lane, believes Barry, and so does Superman," Kara said deciding to name drop here a bit that caused Henry to look surprised. "I'll give you some time with your son."

Kara stood up and kissed Barry on the cheek. Barry nodded with a smile and then she moved out of the room, Joe opening the door and letting her out. "Dad I brought Kara here so you can meet her and you mess it up like that," Barry said. "This is probably the only time you will get to see her."

"Sorry son," Henry said. "But she's a beautiful girl and I've had experience with beautiful girls breaking my heart. I don't want to see you hurt and there was nothing else I could do but tell her that."

"I'm not going to get hurt dad," Barry said. "And even if I do the time I got with her would be worth it."

Henry smiled. "Okay tell her I'm sorry," Henry said. "And for what it's worth after that speech she gave me I like her. She might be the girl who could look after you. I'll never stop worrying about my son though."

Barry smiled and knew his time with his dad was almost over from Joe pointing at his watch. "Next time be better," Barry said. "I love you dad." Barry wished he could hug him but he knew the rules.

"Love you too," Henry said. "Give me a moment with Joe." When Barry got out and went to Kara who was waiting outside, Henry asked Joe, "What do you think of her?"

"Kara's a nice girl. Her and Barry are a cute couple. If you get internet time look up 'Karry Karaoke'," Joe said with a smile. "And Iris and Kara have quickly become best girlfriends. I like her too."

"I'm just afraid he will get hurt. We both know what's its like to have a broken heart. Watch after my son. If something happens be there for him the way I can't," Henry said.

"I always am," Joe said as guards came back into the room to take Henry away and Joe went to the young couple waiting. "I'll drop you back off at our house but then I have to get into work."

The ride was silent back to the house and once there Kara thanked Joe for letting her spend the night. Joe nodded as he went off back to work and Barry showed Kara to Iris's room where Kara left her bag. "I did not know my dad would do that," Barry said.

"Clark and Alex have done it enough to you," Kara said. "I guess it was my turn."

Barry smiled. "The way you handled him. I wish I was brave enough to stand up to your cousin like that," Barry said. "Maybe if I did he would respect me more."

Kara kissed Barry. "Don't do it," Kara said when the kiss was done. "I like you alive." Barry laughed at Kara's comment.

"Ever been to Central City before?" Barry asked and Kara shook her head no. "Well then let me be a tour guide."

The rest of the day Barry was showing Kara all around Central pointing out all the sights including STAR labs. "They are starting work on a particle accelerator but it's not going to be ready for years," Barry said. "I would love to one day meet Dr. Wells." Kara shrugged never having heard of him before.

The two met Iris for a late lunch/early dinner and then that night went bowling. Kara came in last not really good at the game even with Barry trying to help her. When Joe came home that night the three were on the couch watching a movie.

"Okay I still don't get it. What's with the one knee thing," Kara said as the guy in the movie proposed. She felt stupid for not realizing what Clark had meant that morning. She had seen it before in movies but it never really attached in her head with marriage proposal. Krypton did it really differently.

"Well it's to show… um… I don't know it's just tradition," Iris said trying to explain and Kara shrugged. "I mean come on it's been like this our whole lives. Why did you have to ask?"

Kara paused almost forgetting she hadn't been with Alex or someone who really knew her background. "I've always been curious and with Clark proposing…" Kara said.

"Clark proposing? You didn't tell me that," Iris said.

"Kids," Joe said before Kara could answer. "Be in bed before midnight." Joe told them, exhausted from his day as he went up the stairs. Barry laughed as he yelled back okay and took some popcorn from Kara. When the movie was over the three went to bed after making quick plans for the next day.

That night screaming woke Iris, Joe, and Barry. Iris was the first up to see Kara tossing on the floor on the mattress they had set up for her. "Kara!" Iris yelled going to shake her friend up, but got pushed back as Joe and Barry ran into the room.

Kara suddenly jolted up clearly afraid. "No, no," Kara kept mumbling clearly still reeling from the nightmare and not yet awake.

"Kara," Barry said getting next to her and pulling her into a hug. Kara cried into Barry shoulder mumbling something that sounded like 'don't leave me'. "Never." Barry whispered rubbing her back and looking at Joe who was looking over Iris.

"You okay?" Joe asked Iris who nodded. Joe then turned over to Kara. She seemed to have calmed down in Barry's arms "Kara are you okay?"

"I'm sorry," Kara said, now awake. "I haven't had a nightmare like that in years. Are you okay Iris?" Kara knew how much harm she could have done to Iris but Iris just smiled.

"Yeah you barely got me," Iris said truthfully not hurt at all. "And you should have seen some of the nightmares Barry use to have."

"And speaking of that I always make hot chocolate after a nightmare. You like hot chocolate?" Joe asked and Kara nodded not wanting to leave Barry's arms. Joe got the hot chocolate ready and everyone had a cup in the lounge before they all went back to bed.

"I'm really sorry I woke you all," Kara said as she went back towards Iris's room.

"Wake me anytime," Barry said kissing Kara goodnight.

Kara couldn't get back to sleep though long after Iris was asleep she was up. She snuck out of the room and went towards Barry's room where Barry was asleep on the bed. "Barry?" Kara whispered shaking him awake. Kara put a finger over her lips before he spoke. "Come watch the sunrise with me."

Barry looked at her surprised but nodded and went out onto the porch with Kara and watched the sun come up. Kara smiled up at the sky. At the yellow sun which gave her her powers. Barry put an arm around her. Under her breath Kara mumbled a prayer to Rao thanking him from her for all the good in her life. "I love seeing you smile," Barry said.

"Good thing you make me smile then," Kara said back, kissing him. "Thanks for sitting with me."

"Anytime," Barry said as they continued to watch the sun come up. When the sunrise was over and the two finally went in. "Okay I'm officially awake. Want to make breakfast with me?"

"Sure," Kara said and by the time Joe and Iris got up the two had pancakes and bacon ready.

Kara's phone binged after breakfast with Clark telling her it was safe to come back to the hotel. Kara asked him if Lois said 'yes' and was delighted when Clark confirmed he was engaged. "Lois said yes," Kara announced to the three who seemed happy as well. Kara's phone binged again. "And she wants me and Barry to join her and Clark tonight at a celebration dinner." The phone binged once again. "And you two too if you want."

The rest of the vacation Kara gave Lois and Clark space to themselves and spent a lot of time with Barry. She did spend one day with her family on Lois's request. When it was time to go home Barry drove them to the airport. "I'll be seeing you soon," Kara said.

"I'd never thought I would be counting down the days until school starts," Barry said kissing Kara goodbye. "See you soon." Kara smiled as she kissed Barry one last time before following Clark and Lois through security.

"I hate this," Clark said as they were waiting to board and looked at his fiancée who was reading a book and Kara who was doing a crossword puzzle. "Don't you?"

"Don't I what?" Kara asked.

"Never mind," Clark said. "What's the clue?"

"Greek god of the underworld," Kara said clearly not understanding the clue.

"Hades." Clark answered and Kara looked at the puzzle.

"How did you know that?" Kara asked putting the solution in.

"Everyone knows it," Clark said with a laugh. "Maybe crossword puzzles are not your thing." Kara laughed putting the book away

"Iris gave it to me to keep me amused while we waited," Kara said. "This sucks waiting for a plane. I hate it and you're right it's so slow. We would be faster. How many planes do you have to save as Superman?" Kara whispered the last part to Clark so no one else could hear.

Clark smiled as his cousin unknowingly agreed with him and brought her into a hug. "Enough," Clark whispered back.

AN: Okay that's where I will end this one. I hope you liked and I hoped you liked Henry sort of doing to Kara what Clark and Alex did to Barry. Please REVIEW if you like. Reviews make me write faster.
