Summary
Who knows how long Lena was tortured before—God knows how—Kara got an inkling and went to check on her. Since Lena hadn’t called Kara’s name, the thugs were fairly unprepared for the entry of a super-fast alien with fire in her eyes and ice in her breath. It was a matter of minutes and a whole lot of punching before three of the four men were tied up with the same rope that left marks Lena was still sporting. The fourth man—the one doing the “torturing”—is currently in the ICU. Kara later debriefed the DEO, explaining that what she did was in self-defence, and pointed to the kryptonite bullet scar—now quickly fading—in her right shoulder. Lena was taken to the DEO medbay, where she stayed for a total of three hours and twelve minutes. The moment Kara came by to check on her, Lena snatched her medical records that Brainy had printed to be reviewed and fled the scene. Supergirl, in her full red-blue regalia and heroic presence stood there with a slight twinkle in her eyes. The kryptonite had hurt less.

Summary
Kara comes back from the Phantom Zone. After the canon Supercorp embrace, Lena leaves the Tower to go back to L-Corp, probably so as not to face Kara. Our superhero can't let that happen.

Summary
A tumblr prompt, spiraled out of control.
Kara, perhaps out of a want for thoroughness in her story, perhaps out of a Millennial-born urge to creep on a the social media of a woman she finds intriguing, discovers that Lena Luthor has a pretty active following on Instagram one afternoon not long after their first meeting. She debates it, just for a moment, before following Lena.

Summary
When Kara got sent away back to the Phantom Zone, Lena put her big, dark feelings aside, desperate to save her once-friend from the only thing she knew that scared Kara. She worked herself to the bone, subsisting on caffeine and twenty-minute catnaps she refused to admit were naps at her desk, amidst old coffee cups and scattered paperwork littered with crossed-out equations.
It took longer than she'd wanted, but they'd finally succeeded. They'd finally gotten Kara back.
But she's not back for Lena. Lena's heart beats easier knowing that Kara isn't lost in that hellscape anymore, but that doesn't make them friends again. It doesn't make them anything.
Lena did what she had to do, and now she'd like to move on with what she calls her life.Bookmarked by ShhhReadingHere

Summary
Kara plays the part well.
She smiles at the right moments, lets herself be pulled into tight embraces, laughs in the way she’s supposed to. She tells Alex she’s fine, tells J’onn she’s okay, tells Nia she’s happy to be home.
And they believe her.
They want–need–to believe her.
Lena is the only one who doesn’t.
She sees the way Kara’s fingers twitch at her sides when she thinks no one is looking. The way her eyes keep darting to the shadows, searching, flickering, doubtful. The way she smiles but it never reaches her eyes.
