Summary
Kara was a track star in college and upon graduating has trouble finding a job in journalism, so her sister Alex offers for her to move to the city and share her apartment. She quickly finds a job at a local running store for the time being where a non-athletic Lena stops in for help with staying active, because apparently her doctor thinks 80 hour work weeks at a desk are unhealthy. Also, Kara is very clumsy.

Summary
“Help me understand,” Kara says. “Are you saying everyone falls in love with their best friend?”
“I’m saying that queer women have a special affinity for it,” Lena repeats, fishing the cherry out of the bottom of her drink. “The whole ‘falling for your straight best friend’ is basically a rite of passage.”
“Says who?”
“Everyone.” She puts the cherry in her mouth, bites it off the stem. “The L Word was like, built on the premise that a friend group of queer woman in LA dated each other in some sort of terrible repeating circle for, god, however many seasons that went on. And it’s been my experience that when two people are attracted to each other, and they’re close, feelings are likely to develop.”
“That’s just, I mean, come on.” Kara’s cheeks are a little pink. “A trope and a tv show? That’s your evidence?”
“So you’ve never been in love with your best friend?” Lena looks down at her empty glass.
“No!” Kara sounds affronted. “No, I have never been in love with my best friend.”
Or, A love story, told in three acts.

Summary
Since moving to National City three weeks ago, Lena’s been working non-stop. She desperately needs some stress relief, and a club’s masquerade night sounds like the perfect solution.
Kara has no plans for a one-night stand, but she can't resist the rare chance at anonymity...especially when she’s so drawn to the woman hitting on her.
(Kara and Lena first meet under much different circumstances. They try to turn a one-night stand into something more, contending with trust issues and emotional hurdles along the way.)

Summary
"Would you care to dance?" Lena quickly asked with shaking hands.
Kara was so stunned by the sudden request that she barely had time to breathe, let alone think, before she answered.
"I would."
Lena nodded and immediately walked away leaving James to try and console the blonde.
"What did I just do?"
"You’re going to dance with her."
"How could you let this happen?! Of all the—"
"It'll be fine." He reassured her. "She’s actually kind of hot."
"I know that!" Kara looked at him in a moment of panic as her words registered.

Summary
It’s not like Kara deliberately sets out to make her life harder than it should be. It’s not her fault that she’s excitable, okay, and she forgets things sometimes and maybe those things should not be forgotten under any circumstances. Maybe those things include, well, housing forms, which as it turns out are super important to submit on time if she wants to not be homeless on her sophomore year of college.
Her sister’s going to give her so much crap about this.
Alternatively: in which Kara forgot to fill out the housing form and was left with no choice but to live in the most exclusive apartment on campus.

Except that is not the case when Kara wakes up with Lena Luthor, the woman who had just used Kryptonite on her and currently hated the very sight of her.No, something was definitely wrong.

Lena Luthor does not like people. She does not like people that try to horn in on her life. She does not like when people steal from her. Add all that together and you get a recipe for one very strung-out woman. Backed into a corner and unwilling to get pulled apart by the US Judicial system, she begrudgingly signs on with the DEO to go undercover... with Supergirl.

Summary
“Oh, no, you definitely don’t want to do that,” Kara said, picking up a paper cup and dumping a teabag in it.
The woman next to her looked up, surprise etched onto her pale, drawn face. “Excuse me?” she rasped.
Kara nodded at the coffee pot the woman had picked up and wrinkled her nose. “You’d get better coffee at the 7-Eleven across the street and that’s saying something. I’d stick with tea.”
“Oh. Oh … okay.”
“First time?” Kara asked, glancing sideways at the woman.
She was striking, her medium height made a fraction taller by her heels, the tailored cut of her clothes precise, her makeup perfect and her dark hair long and sleek. In her scrubs and denim jacket, bare-faced and dishevelled, Kara felt positively inadequate. And yet, there was the same hollowed out look to the newcomer's face, a sadness in her green eyes, a weary slump to her shoulders that was recognisable.
“Yes.”
Picking up a glazed donut, Kara took a bite and gave her a strained smile. “I’d say it’s good to have you here but … well, obviously not.”

Summary
Trying to get his photography career off the ground, James comes up with an idea to do a couples photo shoot...with two complete strangers (this is apparently a recent trend. go google it if you're curious. I couldn't believe it until a 'friend' of mine got dragged into one, hence the inspiration for this story)
He already has one person in mind, his reclusive friend Lena, who seems adamant to stay single forever after a messy split with her ex. And after a lot of convincing from her sister, Kara agrees to participate in the shoot as well. Neither Lena nor Kara expect anything to come of it. It's just a photo shoot, after all. But perhaps James is just as good a matchmaker as he is a photographer...

"You—” she tilted her head at Lena “— are about to receive the Kara Danvers Girlfriend Treatment.”
Her words drew a smirk from Lena, face bordering on sultry as her entire demeanour shifted. “Oh really, and what exactly does that entail?” Her voice had dropped to that lower register that had always made Kara’s brain turn to mush and her heart to stutter in its cavity.
Or…
Lena needs a date for the gala so Andrea and Sam stop trying to set her up with people.
Kara offers her services.
Many chaotic feelings ensue.

Summary
“I hope I didn’t interrupt anything important. You just looked kind of uncomfortable and he was getting a little handsy with you so I thought that I would come save you.” She says it quietly, only audible to Lena’s ears despite the soft quality of the music. Then after a beat, she realizes exactly how that must sound, promptly flushes and then backpedals. “I mean, not to imply that you needed saving or – or that you would prefer my hands on you – “And Rao that was not much better and she really should stop talking now. “I just wanted to give you an out and I thought you may feel safer with – well. Me.”
Or
Kara is a useless gay, thirsting after her best friend. And Lena makes lots of very non-platonic comments in hopes that it will someday register.

Summary
When Lena returns, Kara is obediently sitting on one of the barstools, her blazer neatly folded on the stool next to her, the peas still balancing on the back of her hand. Her holster contrasts against the white of her shirt, and Lena traces the dark leather up against her chest, her eyes zeroing in on the splatters of blood that darken the collar.
OR Bodyguard AU where, at Jess's behest, Lena hires Argo Protection Services when there's an attempt on her life and Kara becomes her personal bodyguard, and maybe something more.
