Chapter Text
Kara hadn’t been out in a while. Mostly because she was always afraid that she would be out. They’d broken up about three weeks prior and Kara wasn’t over it. She didn’t think that she would ever be over it. Lena Luthor was undeniably the love of Kara’s life. When it fell apart so did Kara.
Kara had been wallowing, well at least that’s what Alex said. Kara had tried to deny it but she was. Alex said that she just needed to get out and maybe get on top of someone else. Somehow it had worked so Kara was a bar with all of her friends and she was having a good time. She felt like herself again. She went back over to the bar to get another drink. As she made her way back to the booth she noticed that Sam and Eve were there as well. That meant the Lena would be here.
Kara told herself that she’d finish her drink and then she’d leave. But it was too late.
Lena Luthor walked into the bar. Her hair was flowing effortlessly behind her. She looked perfect. Kara wasn’t prepared. They were both in the booth sitting opposite each other. Lena flashed a bright smile and Kara heart stalled. It was too much. Kara finished her drink quickly and went to get another.
She stood at the bar in hesitation. She didn’t want to go back to the booth because that’s where Lena was. She looked over again and Lena wasn’t there. She looked down at her drink before she looked up to Lena standing in front of her.
“We shouldn’t have broken up,”
“Lena you can’t just say that,”
“Of course I can. We were so perfect together. I miss you Kara. You said we could still be friends but I haven’t heard from you I was worried,”
“Lena you broke my heart. You can’t expect me to get over that in a day,”
“It’s not too late we can get back together. We can fix this Kara,”
“I don’t know,” Kara finished her drink and started to walk to the door. “Are you coming?”
“Of course,” Lena followed Kara back to Kara’s truck. They both got in Kara driving the all to familiar route back to Lena’s place.
Their body’s acted upon muscle memory and by the end of the night they were both sweaty and completely naked in Lena’s bed. At that moment Kara felt like herself. She had the woman she loved in her arms. While it wasn’t perfect it was what they both needed.
When Lena came into Kara’s life she shook everything up. She left Kara feeling confused. Now that she was supposed to be out of her life, Lena left an even bigger mess. While they were together it was like the eye of the storm and when they were apart the hurricane was back in full force leaving ruins all around.
They were together for a short second and everything was calm. By the time morning came it was a different story but it was worth it.
