Chapter Text

All her life, Lena Luthor had been punctual. She liked everything to be precise and on schedule. And if it was the first day of work in a new place, her punctuality was exacerbated with unimaginable force.

- Lena, why are you up so early? Even Ruby's still asleep. - Sam started grumbling.

- It's my first day, I'm nervous. Besides, I have to go through some papers, familiarize myself with the personnel files, look at the plan. - Lena ran around the apartment, trying to find clothes quickly among the piles of boxes.

- You didn't forget that you're helping me find a place to live? - The brunette wore a white blouse, a black jacket and the same color skirt.

- Yes, I remember. Why did you turn down the company apartment in the first place? It would have been a hundred times faster.

- This apartment can be used by someone who needs it more. I have money and I can do everything myself. - Lena explained, while applying her makeup. - And thank you for letting me stay here. I promise to move out as soon as possible.

- You know I'm not rushing you or kicking you out, right? - Sam raised an eyebrow. - You can stay here as long as you need to.

- I know, but I don't want to make you feel cramped. - The brunette quickly finished packing and headed for the exit.

The friends said goodbye and after hailing a cab, Lena headed for the department.

**********

She arrived an hour before the start of the workday and, upon entering the office, the first thing she did was to review the personnel files of the employees she had been advised to look at.

Winn Schott: Programmer, wrote several computer programs to effectively catch criminals.

Querl Dox: Forensic scientist, developed new and effective techniques for identifying unidentified corpses.

Alex Danvers: Detective, has awards for distinguished service, has solved many serious crimes.

Kara Danvers: Detective, also has many awards and a large number of solved cases.

It was Kara Danvers who was advised by a former department head to pay attention to. Disciplinary actions and reprimands aside, she was a very good detective.

After quickly reading through the key points of the personnel files, Lena began to look at the photos of the employees. A blue-eyed blonde caught her attention. How she could with such an angelic smile and sweet face have an award for catching and disarming a dangerous murderer and rapist was beyond the brunette's comprehension.

Putting those papers aside, Lena pulled out the new ones she'd been handed at the door from HR. She looked over her new working conditions, duties, powers in her new position and didn't notice how time flew by.

There were 20 minutes left before the morning briefing, so it was worth a quick flip through the morning's summary and get ready.

**********

Kara woke up to the bright sun shining in her face and a sharp headache. Apparently she'd had too much to drink last night, but she had a good excuse. She was celebrating a successfully closed case, she'd managed to put one bad guy behind bars.

The blonde stretched out on the bed and smiled as she noticed the naked body next to her. She turned and saw the hot brunette lying on her back, the blanket thrown back and nothing in the way of tracing every curve of the taut body. Kara felt a familiar tension between her legs and glanced at her watch and realized she was running late.  

Quickly jumping out of bed, she shook the girl lying in her bed and searched for her clothes.  

- Baby, what's your name... Never mind. I have to go to work, and you need to go to your home. - Kara quickly ran to the shower, washed her face and brushed her teeth.  

- Don't you want to keep talking? Yesterday you said you were hoping to try a relationship and I'm a great option for that. You don't even have my number. - the brunette was already fully awake and dressed.  

- You're too old to believe in fairy tales. It was just sex, a one-night stand. Shut the door behind you. - Kara found her car keys and was about to run out of the apartment when she was stopped by a resounding slap.  

- Always better than any coffee. - Kara muttered and rubbed her flushed cheek.  

- You... You...! - The girl was clearly angry and couldn't think of anything to call the blon de. - And the sex was mediocre!

- Is that why you were moaning so much? - Kara smirked and began to parody. - Aaah ...! Aaaah ...! Yeah...! More...!

- Goodbye, I hope to never see you again. - The brunette said and left, slamming the door loudly.  

A moment later, Kara quickly ran out to work.  

The trip to the department had been quick enough, so she was only a little late.  

Quickly running into the building and not forgetting to say hello with her sweet smile to everyone she met on her way, Kara literally burst into the briefing room.  

- Hi, everyone! – The blonde closed the door behind her and went to sit down next to her sister.  

- Detective Danvers? Did someone give you permission to come in? - Raising an eyebrow, the brunette asked sternly, standing with a businesslike look and telling the important planned activities for the day.  

- Are you in John's place? - Kara stared at the brunette studyingly. She liked her shape, the shirt and skirt didn't really hide her pretty figure.  

- Respect the chain of command, Detective Danvers. Now step out of the office and come in properly. - Lena was well acquainted with her personnel file and photo, so she knew exactly what the detective looked like.  

- Are we in kindergarten? Isn't that funny to you? - Kara asked.  

The brunette only looked sternly into the detective's eyes and waited for her to comply.  

Kara decided it would be quicker to comply and left the office. She knocked on the door and opened it and asked. - May I come in?

- Come in. After the briefing, you will come to my office and write an explanatory note about being late. - The brunette continued to convey information to the staff, not paying attention to the disgruntled face and loud snorting of the blue-eyed girl.  

Kara sat down next to Alex and quietly asked. - Who's the bitch?  

- Lena Luthor , our new boss. And she doesn't look like a bitch. You're on a case. Don't be late. - Alex answered just as quietly.  

- John usually didn't mind me being late. Wait... Did you say Lena Luthor? Luthor?! It was her brother who was convicted of extortion and attempted murder as the sister of the perpetrator was taken in by the police?  

- Yeah, that's her. By the way, Lex already served his time. Lena's always publicly denounced her brother. She's 24 years old. She's from metropolis. Graduated with a B.A., first supervisory appointment. If you hadn't been late, you could have asked more questions yourself. - Alex explained.  

- She's two years younger than me and she's already the boss?! - the blonde resented. - Why did they put her in charge in the first place? She doesn't look like the boss...

- Detective Danvers wants to continue instead of me? - Lena asked with a raised eyebrow. - You're already late, so have the decency to be quiet.  

- Okay, I'll be quiet. - Kara grumbled.

After waiting for the briefing to end, the blonde went to the office of her new boss. When she opened the door, she remembered her manners and knocked on the door frame. - Permission to enter?  

- You're a quick study, Detective Danvers. - Luthor remarked . - Next time, knock on a closed door.  

- Hurry up. Unlike some people, I have a lot of work to do. - asked the blonde and sat down at the conference table.  

- Speaking of the chain of command. Please respect it. Take the paper, write an explanation. - said Lena.  

- Are you serious? An explanation? I was only a couple minutes late. - Kara said with a raised eyebrow.  

- The workday started a long time ago, the daily schedule clearly states that you should arrive half an hour early. - The brunette handed her a piece of paper and a pen. - You're setting a bad example. If one of the best employees is late, what can you expect from the rest of us?  

Kara sighed loudly and began to write.  

- One more thing. - the brunette continued. - Your appearance is unacceptable. T-shirt, ripped jeans and sneakers, not very suitable for a detective.  

- Do you want criminals to see where I work from a mile away? - the blonde asked.  

- I'm not forcing you to wear a uniform, business style is fine too. - Lena shrugged her shoulders.  

- And if I don't want to? – Kara smirked. – Will you punish me?

- It's not a request, but an order. If you don't have business clothes tomorrow, you'll lose your bonus and write more explanatory notes. - Lena said sternly. - Any other questions?

- Yeah. There's one left. - Kara finished writing and handed back the paper and pen. - Who do you have to sleep with to be promoted to department head at 24?  

- First of all, my personal life is none of your business. Secondly, to become the head of the department, you need to work properly and at least not be late. - replied the brunette calmly.  

- Your personal life does not concern me exactly until the dissatisfaction in bed does not begin to reflect on my salary. So, if you want good sex, you have my number. - Kara just offered.  

- I'm sorry...? - Lena frowned.  

- Don't play innocent. Everyone needs to relax sometime. And I don't need all these explanatory notes. It'll be fine for everyone.  

- I'll pretend I didn't hear anything, and you get out of my office. - Lena said threateningly.  

Kara stood up and walked out the door taking a deep breath. - Fuck, this looks like it's going to be fun...

**********

She walked towards her office and on the way she noticed her sister talking sweetly with some pretty shade. Without thinking long, the blonde decided to approach.  

- I'm going to have to arrest you because it's illegal to be this pretty. Detective Kara Danvers. You can just call me Kara. - Kara extended her hand to the stranger with a smile.  

- Samantha Arias. Sam. - The brown-haired woman shook her hand.  

- You have very soft hands, now I will tell my friends that I touched an angel. - Kara continued.  

- Kara, stop... - shoving her sister with her elbow, Alex whispered.  

- Are you two namesakes or relatives? - Sam asked, shifting her gaze from one to the other.  

- We're sisters. - Kara explained.  

- It's nice to meet you. - Sam smiled at the two detectives and looked at Alex studyingly .  

- I won't get in your way. - Kara whispered quietly and went to her office.  

- You have a cute sister. - Sam remarked.  

- Yeah, she is. What about the phone? I thought you were going to dictate it to me," Alex smirked. - If you have a free evening, it would be nice to spend some time in good company.  

- Is it a date? - Sam smirked and raised an eyebrow.  

- Yes. Are you going? - Alex asked, trying to hide her excitement.  

- Here's my card. - Sam handed the detective a card. - I'm free tonight.  

Alex smiled broadly - See you to night then?  

- See you tonight.

The girls said goodbye and Sam continued walking where she had originally planned to go. When she entered her friend's office, she forgot to remove the silly smile from her face, which led to questions.  

- What's wrong? Are you so happy that you found me an apartment? - Lena asked with a smile.  

- Not yet, but I'm in the process. No sooner had I gotten to your office than I was already asked out on a date. - Sam sat down at the conference table closer to her friend.  

- Who was it? - The brunette was curious.  

- Detective Danvers. Alex. There's something about her. - Sam replied.  

- It's a good thing you didn't meet her sister. You wouldn't have that smile now. - Lena smirked.  

- Actually I did... She's adorable. A very sweet and beautiful detective, your type, by the way. - winked at the brown-haired girl.  

Lena choked on her saliva and coughed loudly. - Charming?! Are you sure you've met her? Kara Danvers? The charming and sweet detective?  

- Yeah... It was definitely her. Blue-eyed, tall blonde. She's also wearing a t-shirt that's unforgivably sexy on her. Did you see those muscles?  

- Are you sure you're going on a date with Alex? - Lena clarified.  

- Alex is more my type, especially I don't want to take the blonde away from you.  

- Nothing can happen between us! Nothing and never! - Lena exclaimed loudly, she didn't want to think about it, Danvers was smug, boorish and definitely not her type.  

Sam only smirked at that and rolled her eyes. - We'll see.  

- So why are you here? - Lena asked.  

- Oh, right. - Sam reached into her bag and pulled out a container of food. - You haven't had breakfast. Who else but me is going to take care of your nutrit ion? Certainly not you…

- Thank you. I don't know what I would have done without you. - thanked Lena.  

- That's what friends are for. - Sam got up from the table and headed for the exit. - I won't interrupt you, you're the big boss now.

The girls said goodbye and Lena continued her paperwork.

**********

- Baby, are you free tonight? - Kara asked, pressing Jess against the wall in the secluded hallway.  

- Honey, I recently started seeing someone. - warned the girl.  

- I'm not pretending. You know the rules, just sex. Or are you busy tonight? - Kara asked.  

- I'm always free for you. - The girl ran her hands from her shoulders to her buttocks and squeezed lightly, eliciting a quiet moan from the blonde.  

- To you or to me? - Kara whispered hotly in her ear and bit her earlobe.  

- My place. You have really nice neighbors, but after that time, they look at me weird. - Jess kissed the blonde's jaw and stroked between her legs. - I so love what you've got there.  

- You really did scream too loud then. I'll meet you at your place after work. - Kara felt her erection growing, so she removed Jess's hand.  

Their conversation was interrupted by the phone ringing in the blonde's pocket. It was Alex.  

- I'm listening. - Kara sighed and sent an air kiss to Jess and headed for her office.  

- Where the hell have you been? We got a dead body. Take Brainy, Winn and Nia. I'll text you the address..  

- I'm on my way. - Kara disconnected the call and gathered her coworkers and headed to the crime scene.

Chapter Text

A police car stopped at a bus stop where there was a dead body of an unknown person.

It was a young boy, approximately 18 years old. Brainy immediately began examining the body, Winn went to retrieve footage from nearby CCTV cameras for further study, and Kara began doing her least favorite thing on the job - filling out a report, she didn't like paperwork and was always reluctant to do it. Nia, the young intern, scrutinized the work of the experienced staff.

- Brainy, what do you think? - Kara asked.

- Death occurred approximately two hours ago. There are no visible wounds on the body except for a puncture mark on the elbow bend of the left arm. A syringe with residue of an unknown substance was found nearby, I'll find out the detailed chemical composition in the lab. - Brainy said.

- Nia, find two witnesses to sign. - asked the blonde, not taking her eyes off the protocol, and then the trainee went to fulfill the assignment.

- The corpse is wearing a black T-shirt without inscriptions, blue jeans and red sneakers. He's carrying a cell phone and a wallet full of cash. - continues with Brainy.

- It doesn't look like a fatal robbery, nothing was stolen from him. Looks like a junkie overdosed. - Kara suggests.

- Let's not jump to conclusions. We need to check the fingerprints on the syringe and run a blood test for any other drugs. Where's Nia and the witnesses? - Brainy started taking photos of the scene.

- You know you can't just find witnesses. They're either in a hurry or they don't want to go to court. Why don't you confiscate the syringe now, and then people will come up and sign? - Kara suggested it.

- That's against the rules. - Brainy objected.

- No one would know. It's just a bureaucratic nuance, we won't plant or change evidence. - the blonde finished the protocol.

- Okay. - Brainy took a deep breath and packed the syringe in a special bag. - I'll call a car, the body will be taken to the morgue.

Nia found two witnesses and they signed, surprisingly without asking any questions. A few minutes later, Winn came up with a flash drive on which he had saved the camera footage.

Soon a car with journalists arrived on the scene, a small bunch of reporters from the local TV station. Kara didn't let them get close to the body and waited until it was taken to the morgue.

**********

- Ms. Luthor, my son never took any drugs. He was murdered, and you need to find the person responsible as soon as possible. - a stately, middle-aged man has been sitting in Lena's office for 20 minutes.

He saw the report and recognizing his son as the deceased, he went straight to investigate.

- This often happens to the children of rich parents. They lose interest in life and start trying new things like drugs. I promise we'll get to the bottom of this. - Lena assures me.

- It's not about him. I just can't believe he did this to himself. I've got a lot of competitors and business enemies, maybe it's their antics. Promise me you'll look into Jack's death. If necessary, I'll help the investigation financially. - the father looked completely devastated, his son's death had taken its toll.

- That won't be necessary. We'll do everything we can. I will personally supervise the investigation. - Lena promised.

The father said goodbye to the brunette and left her office. Lena exhaled loudly and took out her cell phone and called Kara and invited her over.

- Is it something important or are you trying to distract me from my work again? - Kara asked irritably as she entered the office.

- It's about the body found at the bus stop today. - Lena pointed to the conference chair for the detective to sit down.

- What's wrong with him? - The blonde asked with a furrowed brow.

- The deceased's father came by. He assures me that his son is not a drug addict and asks for a thorough investigation. And the journalists are making a big deal out of it. We need to get to the bottom of this. Can you do that? - Lena crossed her arms over her chest and stared at the detective.

- Do you doubt it? I am a professional! - Kara was angry. - I have the highest clearance rate in this department.

- It's just that with your attitude... I could give this case to a better detective..." the brunette began.

- A better detective?! - Kara stood up abruptly from her desk, dropping her chair with a clatter. - Are you fucking kidding me?!

- I'm just not sure about your professionalism. Maybe your record is a little exaggerated. If a really worthy employee takes on the case, the investigation will go better. - Lena replied calmly.

Kara snorted loudly at her statement and put the fallen chair back in place - You under fucked bitch! I'm a top detective and I'm not going to let you take my case!

- I'm not firing you just because John asked me to. But there's a limit to everything! - the brunette got angry. - For starters, you'll work this month without a bonus.

- Fuck you! - Kara looked fiercely into the eyes of the boss and loudly slammed the door and left the office.

The blonde went in to see Brainy, to find out everything he had managed to find out.

- What do you have for me? - Kara asked glumly.

- There are no fingerprints on the syringe other than the deceased's. I also found out that there was a strong synthetic drug inside, previously unknown. Blood tests showed no other drugs previously used. Preliminarily, I can say that this is not a homicide. We'll have a definitive conclusion tomorrow morning. - summarized Brainy.

- Are you sure? The witch has already fucked my brains out, if it turns out to be a murder...

- Winn should already check the nearest video cameras. You can take a look at them for now. - Brainy suggested. - I'm more interested in the drug. I've never seen anything like it before, a very complex chemical compound that can't be made in a homemade environment without specialized knowledge.

- Do you think it's something serious? - Kara asked, and after Brainy nodded, she said, "Then I'll look into it.

- Also... Luthor isn't so bad. She promised me new equipment by the end of the month, praised my professional qualities. Just try to go easy on her. - Brainy said.

- Sure... You were placated, promised a bunch of stuff, and you fell for it. I don't trust her. She couldn't have been put in that position for nothing. - the blonde frowned.

- You're just upset that John left, he was like a father to you.

Kara sighed heavily and walked away to Winn.

- Make me happy. - The blonde walked into her friend's office.

- I've got two surveillance tapes. It shows the guy talking to someone on the phone first, and after a while he pulled out a syringe and injected himself. - Winn turned on the video and showed it to the blonde.

- Can you find out who he was talking to? - Kara asked.

- Yes, the contact was called 'Kitten', you'll have to wait for details. It's late tonight, you can go home, it'll be ready in the morning. - Winn said.

Kara looked at her watch, her work day was already coming to an end. She said goodbye to her coworkers and headed home to Jess' house.

**********

- Lena, I don't know what to wear! - Sam had been running around the apartment for half an hour looking for the best outfit for the date.

- I mean, you've got tons of party dresses. Pick the black one, it's the sexiest. - Lena advised me.

- I don't want to look easy. - said Sam, but she pulled out the dress anyway.

- Then choose the blue one. - the brunette found the said item from her closet and gave it to her friend.

- And this one looks like I'm unattractive. - Sam sighed heavily.

- You need to decide what you want. For starters, do you allow sex or not? - Lena asked.

- It's our first date... I don't want to rush things. But there is a possibility, I'm wearing lacy lingerie. - shrugged her shoulders. - Maybe black isn't so bad.

Sam tried on the outfit and twirled around, waiting for her friend's assessment.

- It looks great. - The brunette gave a thumbs-up.

- Good, then all that's left is makeup and I'm ready to go. - Sam started to put on her makeup and Ruby walked into the room.

- Mom, are you going somewhere? - the teenager asked.

- Yes... I've been invited somewhere. - explained the brown-haired girl.

- Mom, I already know about dating. - Ruby looked at her mother studiously. - You look great.

- You're growing up so fast. - Sam smiled at the girl. - By the way, did you do your homework?

- But mom... - Ruby pouted and sighed heavily and went to her room.

Sam did her makeup and after a while the doorbell rang. The brown-haired girl quickly put on black high-heeled shoes and after saying goodbye to her friend, quickly jumped out of the apartment.

- Hi. - Alex said hello with a smile.

- Hi. - Sam froze on the spot, studying the outfit of the girl across the hall.

Alex was wearing a black shirt and tight black jeans. If Sam hadn't been so engrossed in the girl across from her, she would have noticed the hungry gaze studying her herself. She took the offered hand and Alex led them to her car.

- I don't know what kind of cuisine you prefer, so we're going to the place that has everything. - Alex opened the door for Sam.

- For the future, I prefer French. - smirked the brown-haired girl.

- For the future? - Alex climbed into the driver's seat and started the engine. - Will there be a second date?

- If you want to, of course. Not that I insist... - Sam started to worry that she had said too much.

- I want to. - Alex calmed her down and pressed the gas pedal. - By the way, you look amazing.

- Thanks, you too. - Sam felt her cheeks turning pink at the compliment.

The girls quickly reached the restaurant, sat down at the pre-arranged table by the window and placed their orders.

- You didn't tell me last time, but why did you come to the department? Did something happen, do you need police help? You know, I'm a detective, I could help," Alex offered.

Sam giggled and hurried to calm the girl down. - I stopped by a friend's. Nothing criminal.

- A friend's? - Alex was surprised. - Maybe I know her, what's her name?

- You know her, you can't not know her. — Sam explained. — That's Lena Luthor.

Alex rounded her eyes and stared at the brown-haired girl with interest. - Lena Luthor? Your friend, this is my new boss.

- Yes, we met at the institute. —Sam explained. — Lena was very good at her studies, so she graduated quickly. She was the youngest in her class and was often teased about it. I stood up for her once, and then we became friends.

- Lena's 24 years old, right? How old are you? - Alex asked. - I'm sorry, you don't have to answer, I know it's not customary to ask...

- Don't worry. I'm 29 years old. - Sam answered with a smile.

- That's great, so we're the same age. - Alex smiled back.

Soon their dishes were brought and they continued their casual conversation, exchanging warm smiles. Sam learned a lot of interesting things about Alex, she told about her family, her sister, where she studied and how long she had been working in the police. There were many funny incidents from her life and different stories. Sam felt a slight trembling in her chest when talking to this girl and decided to ask all her questions straight to the forehead.

- Alex, I want to discuss something important. - started the shaten girl.

- Yes, of course, I'm listening. - Alex looked into her eyes, waiting for further conversation.

- Am I just a one-night stand for you? — Sam asked bluntly. — Or do you want a serious relationship?

- I'm 29 years old. One-night stands have long ceased to interest me. - Alex explained. - I want a relationship. Do you?

- Me, too. But... I have to warn you, it would be wrong of me to hide it... - Sam started to get visibly nervous. - I have a daughter, her name is Ruby, she's twelve years old.

Alex smiled broadly and put her palm on the shade's hand and squeezed it lightly. - I'm very fond of children.

- It's not a problem for you? - Sam was surprised.

- Of course not. - The older Danvers smiled softly.

The girls finished with dinner, Alex insisted on paying and afterward, they left the restaurant.

- I'll drive you home. - Alex opened the car door, letting Sam in.

The brown-haired girl smiled and climbed in. Alex got into the driver's seat and started the engine. The trip didn't take long and soon, the girls sat in silence, neither of them wanting to part.

- Thank you for tonight. - Sam whispered softly. - I haven't had such a good time in a long time.

- Thank you. Have you changed your mind about going on a second date with me? - Alex asked excitedly.

- Of course I haven't changed my mind. - Sam smiled and bit her lower lip. - A kiss goodbye?

Alex shifted her gaze to the tantalizing lips and moved forward slightly. Sam met hers in a sweet kiss that began sweetly and innocently and ended with passionate nibbling and tender tongue caresses.

- Good night. - Alex wished her good night.

- Sweet dreams. - Sam said goodbye and got out of the car and went to her room.

Alex looked at her and smiled all the way home, feeling the warmth and softness of those lips.

**********

- Honey, are you staying the night? - Jess asked, snuggling against the naked blonde and drawing chaotic patterns on her breasts.

- 'No, I'll need to change. The witch had made up new rules. - Kara got out of bed and went to find the clothes she had thrown off earlier.

Jess bit her lip and watched the sexy blonde walking around her apartment. Her cock jiggled between her legs with every step, igniting a new desire in her.

- Do you have to leave now? - Without taking her eyes off the detective's cock, Jess asked.

- If we continue, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk tomorrow. - The blonde smirked.

- 'I can't help myself. I want it in my mouth. - Jess said with a predatory look.

- How can I say no to a lady? - Kara climbed back into bed.

After half an hour, she managed to leave the apartment and go to her apartment. Tomorrow was going to be a busy day, and she didn't even know what her new boss had in mind for her.

Chapter Text

The new work day had begun and right after the briefing, Luthor called the blonde into her office to talk.

- Danvers, I have some good news for you. - Lena began with a smile. - We will now investigate the case together.

The blonde grimaced irritably at her superior's statement. - Why?

- It will be faster and I promised Jack's father that I would personally supervise the process. - explained the brunette.

- Are you sure this work won't damage your manicure? - Kara asked with the same disgruntled face.

- Don't worry, I used to be a detective too. Sort of, I was pretty good at it. - Lena smirked.

- The key word here is, “Sort of.” - rolled her eyes at the blonde. - Maybe you should stay in the warm office. It's so cozy here, and the ficus will miss you.

- That's out of the question. From now on, we're investigating together. - the brunette's tone made it clear that arguing wasn't going to help. - I'll finish the paperwork and we can start in an hour. In the meantime, instead of doing nothing, check out that phone call. Who made the call?

- How do you know about the phone call? - The blonde asked. - Have you had your nose in my business yet?

- It's our case now. - The brunette pointed her finger at the detective's door, hinting that it was time to vacate the premises. - And by the way... You look great.

Kara decided not to provoke any more conflicts with her boss, so today she dressed in business style. Dark blue shirt, black pants with a belt and the same color shoes. The blonde walked out of the office and headed towards Winn.

- Hi. - Kara said hello glumly.

- Good morning. - Winn said cheerfully, not looking up from his computer. - I can guess why you're here. I ran the caller through the databases, the number is registered to one Mary Johnson, 18 years old, studying at the Central Street College of Economics. Same class as the deceased. More details on her and some other frequent callers are in your mail. Yeah, I know, I'm good for being so fast.

The blonde sighed sadly, getting her friend's attention.

- What's wrong? - Winn was worried.

- A witch... Now we're investigating this case together. - Kara told.

- Ugh... Hang in there, she's not going to let you down. - Winn gave the blonde a reassuring pat on the shoulder.

- I just don't understand why she's picking on me.

- Maybe she likes you," Winn suggested.

- What?! She likes me? That's not funny. And even if she does, she's not my type. Not at all. Even after a bottle of hard liquor, I can't get a hard-on for her. - the blonde's ranting.

- Are you sure? - Winn raised his eyebrows and smirked.

- Sure. - Kara replied with a frown.

- Suit yourself. - With a shrug, the man went back to his work.

After this conversation, Cara decided to go in to see Brainy, his word should settle the question of whether it was murder or if the guy really did take the drug himself.

- Brainy, is the report ready? - Kara burst into her friend's office.

- Yes, I've seen the security footage, done some additional research and I can say for sure, he injected the drug himself. - Brainy announced.

- That's great news! Of course it's not great news, a man died... So the case can be closed? - the blonde smiled.

- Yes. There's no crime here. But I hasten to disappoint you. Your job won't get any easier. This drug, I ran it through all the databases again. We're dealing with a new, very powerful substance. We need to find the seller and the manufacturer before there are any more cases. - Brainy seems pretty excited about the prospect.

- Okay, I hear you. I'm on it. - promised the blonde and after saying goodbye, went out so as not to distract her friend from his work.

Lena would be free only in half an hour, so the blonde decided to spend this time in pleasant company. Reaching the accounting department, she noticed a new employee. A young girl, Eve, had recently joined the department and Kara hadn't had a chance to socialize with her yet.

- Hi, Detective Kara Danvers. - The blonde introduced herself with a smile and extended her hand.

- Eve Teschmacher, the new accountant. - The girl accepted the handshake and smiled.

The blonde smirked and winked at Eve and gently kissed the back of her palm, still shaking her hand. She saw the slight blush on the girl's cheeks and whispered hotly in her ear. - Baby, as long as I have a face, you'll have a place to sit.

Kara heard the new employee's breath hitch and pulled away to see her cheeks already completely red.

- Is everything all right? - Kara asked smiling.

- Yeah." Eve's voice trailed off, rising a couple of tones. - Everything's fine.

- I meant everything I said. If you get lonely, call me. - The blonde handed the girl her business card and turned around and walked away.

**********

- Lena, I have great news for you! - Sam exclaimed, literally bursting into her friend's office.

- If you distracted me from work because of another sale...

- I found you an apartment! - smiled the brown-haired girl. - Big penthouse, great view, great neighbors.

- Did you learn the advertising slogan from the website? - Lena asked with a raised eyebrow.

- I've been there. It's the best option. You can rent it or buy it, it's up to you. The owner says you can move in tomorrow. How's that sound? - Sam took out her phone and started showing pictures to her friend.

- Wow, Sam! That's a really good offer. - Lena scrutinized the pictures. - You are the best!

- That's why you trusted me to run your family company. I still don't understand why you have to go to all this trouble. - The brown-haired woman circled her friend's office.

- I already told you, I love this job. As long as you can replace me at L-Corp, I want to help people here. - explained the brunette.

- Anyway, you can get ready to move into your own place. Congratulations! - Sam said cheerfully.

- Because of your happy look, I'm beginning to think that you're very happy to be rid of me.

- It's a residual effect of last night's date. By the way, can you tell me where I can find Alex?

- Are you going to distract her from work? - Lena asked with a smile.

- Me? No... Then I'll find her myself. - Saying goodbye, Sam left the office and went to look for Alex.

The brunette had finished her paperwork and was ready to join the investigation with the blonde. She found her chatting sweetly with one of the human resources people.

- Babe, I'll call you. See you later. - Kara gave the girl her dazzling smile and when she saw her boss, she rushed over to her.

- I was hoping you'd changed your mind about investigating together. - grumbled the blonde.

- Tell me everything you found out. - Lena said as they walked towards the department's exit.

- Brainy concluded that it was an accident. The guy took the drug himself. He's confused about the drug itself, some new potent substance. - the blonde unlocked the car and the girls got in.

- Where are we going? - Lena asked, buckling up.

- To a college on Center Street. Mary Johnson, a student, was the last person to speak to the deceased. - The blonde started up quickly, pressing the gas pedal to the floor.

- I hope you're a good driver. - The brunette shrieked as the car stopped abruptly at the crosswalk.

- I drive just fine. If you don't like it, you can walk. - Kara warned her.

The rest of the way, the girls spent in silence.

When they reached the college and found the principal, they were taken straight to a student.

- Mary Johnson? - the blonde began. - National City Police.

- Yes, that's me. - The girl looked from one policeman to another in confusion. - Is something wrong?

- Your classmate was found dead the day before yesterday. — Lena said. — Jack Spheer, you spoke to him the day before.

- Jack...? How? Found dead? - the girl clearly didn't know what had happened to the guy and looked confused.

- After your last conversation he injected himself with a powerful drug. - explained the blonde. - You were the last person to talk to him.

- What was the conversation about? - Lena asked.

- We broke up recently. I broke up with him. He called, asked me to give him a second chance. - Mary told. - Are you sure he did it on his own?

- We're sure. We're interested in any information about the drug. - said the blonde.

- I don't know anything. He's been very withdrawn lately, only socializing with his friend. Drugs, that's not like him at all.

- A friend? We need his contacts, his phone number. Where can we find him, where does he hang out most days? - the blonde took out her cell phone and wrote down everything the student dictated.

- Thank you, if we need any more information we'll find you. - Kara thanked the girl and she and Lena walked back to the car.

- You know how to be polite? Unexpectedly. - Was surprised by the brunette.

- I told you I was a professional. - Kara replied.

The guy's friend turned out to be a certain Steve. Also a student of this college, the son of rich parents. He doesn't go to school, he spends all his free time at his strip club that his father gave him. After a phone call, they arranged to meet tonight.

- Are you hungry? - The blonde asked, already turning toward a roadside diner.

- Here? It looks like this place only has E. coli on the menu. - the brunette said, wrinkling her nose.

- They have great hot dogs. You want one? - The blonde pulled her purse out of the glove compartment and looked at Lena.

The brunette heard her stomach rumble. She'd missed breakfast today, so she was hungry badly. - Please. If it's not too much trouble.

Kara returned fifteen minutes later, carrying a large paper bag of food in her hand.

- There's two hot dogs, burgers, fries with sauces, coke and ice cream. And no E. coli. - The blonde said and started on her lunch.

Lena smiled and joined the detective. One hot dog later, she leaned back in her seat, completely full. - I can't fit any more in me.

- Then I'll get more. - The blonde shrugged and started on her second burger.

- At this rate, you won't pass the physical fitness standards, you'll be rolling into the office like a balloon.

- I won't pass? As long as I have this..." the blonde lifted her shirt, revealing a well-defined six-pack of abs. - I don't have to worry.

Lena swallowed hard at the sight of those muscles. Kara didn't even seem to notice her boss blushing and continued eating her burger.

The time was nearing evening, which meant it was time to go to meet the deceased's friend at the strip club. Kara was very excited at the prospect of seeing half-naked girls, while Lena, on the contrary, was a little embarrassed by it. The place was made in a rather modern style, loud music was playing, and there was a small crowd of people at the entrance. The girls quickly stood in line and entered the institution.

Inside, the club did not differ from similar places. There were half-naked girls walking around, and groups of people drinking at the tables. Kara smirked at the beautiful blonde dancing in the middle of the stage and caught her eye and winked with a smile.

- We came here to work, not to have fun. - interrupted eye contact brunette and dragged Kara to the administrator.

- One does not interfere with the other. If you were not such a prude, maybe you would appreciate it too. - Kara remarked.

- We need the owner. National City Police, he's been alerted. - Lena told the receptionist.

A few minutes later, a young guy appeared and, after saying hello, dragged them to a secluded spot with a great view of the stage.

- You said on the phone it was about Jack. I haven't heard from him in days. Did he do something wrong? - The guy asked.

- He's dead. - The blonde said simply, gauging his reaction.

- Dolt! I warned him...' Steve began. - Is this about the drugs?

- How do you know? - Lena wondered. - Did Jack tell you something?

- He'd been dabbling in it lately. I don't know where he got them from. He said they were light drugs, harmless pills... I warned him that it wouldn't end well. - Steve told.

- And you don't know where he took them, from whom? - Kara asked.

- No, I don't know anything like that. I was immediately against this stuff, so I was not even interested in the details. - The boy sighed sadly. - Damn... Poor Jack. He was a good man.

- If we need you, we'll call you. Goodbye. - the girls said their goodbyes and walked slowly toward the exit.

- It doesn't look like he's lying. - said Lena.

- Yes... - Kara's attention was attracted by a girl in a revealing bra and thong, passing by and swaying her hips slightly.

- Hello, beautiful. - the blonde called out.

- Kara? Hey, baby. - the girl came closer.

- It's been a while, maybe we can have some fun together sometime? - Kara winked and smiled.

- You have my number, call me anytime. - The girl turned to leave, but Kara stopped her by slapping her bare buttock.

- I'll call you today. After work. - The blonde promised the smirking stripper.

Lena, who had been standing nearby all this time, snorted loudly at the detective's flirtations and turned around and headed for the exit.

Kara looked at the beautiful hips of her boss and, realizing where she was looking, ran to catch up with her.

Chapter Text

Kara awoke to a warm sensation and increasing pressure between her legs. Opening her eyes, she realized two things. One, there were only five minutes left before the alarm went off, and two, that someone was giving her a blowjob.  

Lowering her gaze, the blonde spotted the girl from the strip club she'd met last night.

- Good morning. - Kara smiled.

- Mmm... - the girl couldn't answer with her cock in her mouth, so she mumbled.

- Baby, it's time for me to get up for work. - Kara groaned at the teasing sucking of her testicles. - Fuck you, Luthor. - The blonde took the girl by the hair and began to help her swallow deeper.

Kara ended up being about an hour late for work. She was met at the entrance by a very angry boss with a stopwatch in her hands.

- Congratulations. A new record, an hour late. What is it this time? Fire, flood, cat stuck in a tree? Or maybe you were walking your grandmother across the street? We have an investigation! - Lena gets annoyed and starts yelling.

- Morning sex. Do you know what that is? - Kara replied with a shrug and a smirk.

- Two months without a bonus. Do you know what that is? - Lena turned away from the blonde and strode confidently toward the exit of the building. - 'We should get going.

- Fuck, Luthor, if you think everyone has as much money as you do, you're wrong. - Kara got angry and followed the brunette.

- Don't be late. - Lena waved her away, and then the girls got into the car.

- I could not refuse her. - The blonde started the engine. - Where are we going?

- College. Someone must have seen something. Also... I don't need to know the details of your personal life. Your girlfriend is none of my business.

- My girlfriend? - Kara hesitated for a moment. - I don't have a girlfriend.

- What about Jess? I've heard rumors about you two. Not that I'm a gossip collector...

- We just have sex. - explained the blonde. – Sometimes. Nothing more.

It was unclear why, but the brunette was somewhat relieved by this, Kara was free, so theoretically they could... She began to banish those thoughts and focus on her work, not on the beautiful blonde sitting next to her.

As they approached the college, the girls got out of the car and began to walk slowly by the side, looking around. After a while, their attention was caught by a suspicious guy standing on the corner of the building and nervously turning around. Soon, some student came up to him and after quickly handing him money and receiving a small bag in return, he fled in an unknown direction.

- Did you see that? We have to take him. - said the blonde.

- What if he's dangerous? We need to think of a plan... - Lena didn't have time to finish, as Kara jumped up from her seat and went around the suspicious guy from behind.

She grabbed him and pinned him against the wall as if he weighed nothing. Such a show of force, was having a profound effect on the brunette.

- Who the hell are you?! - shouted the guy. - I'm calling the police!

- The police are already here. You're under arrest. You have the right not to testify against yourself and your loved ones, to one phone call, to an attorney, and to an interpreter. - the blonde explained his rights.

- I didn't do anything! You can't prove anything!

- Luthor, call a team. Have them seize the dope, he must have more on him, describe it, look for witnesses and bring him in. - Kara cuffed the perp, and after waiting for the police to arrive, the girls went to the station.

**********

When all bureaucratic formalities were observed, the detained guy was taken for interrogation.

Only Kara and Lena were in the room with him. The girls sat in silence, and the guy collapsed in his chair, trying to calm his nerves. 

- I don't want to go to jail. - he said, almost crying.

- William Dey, 19 years old, economics major. What have you been missing, William? Why would you sell this crap? - the blonde threw a bag of seized pills on the table.

- I just wanted to make some money. They're harmless pills, nothing serious...' William said fearfully.

- People don't die from harmless pills. - Lena said coldly.

- People die? - questioned the brunet. - I don't understand... Who died?

- Jack Spheer. - The blonde stared at William, waiting for a reaction. - The chemical composition of these pills is identical to what he injected himself with. It's an unknown synthetic drug that you can't get anywhere but here. Where did you get it?

- Is Jack dead? - the boy asked, confused. - We worked together. He was looking for buyers, I was selling. I didn't think he'd decide to try it himself.

- Why would he do it? His parents are wealthy, didn't they give Jack any pocket money? - Lena asked.

- I don't know! Maybe he wanted the experience, to do something illegal. - William suggested.

- Are you from a rich family? - The brunette asked.

- Me? No... Father's an alcoholic, mother works in a school. I barely have enough money to eat. I just wanted to make money. - Says the guy .

- Where did you get the drugs? - The blonde asked sternly.

- I can't... I'm not allowed to say. - Shaking his head, William replied.

- Fuck! - Kara thumped her palm loudly on the table. - More people could get hurt because of this!

- Kara, wait. - The brunette tried to calm her down. - He's obviously scared.

- I don't care! He knows important information and he's not talking! - the blonde got angry.

- William, who told you not to talk? We won't let you get hurt. You can trust us. - Lena tried.

- This good cop/bad cop stuff doesn't work on me. I can't tell you anything, they're not just coming for me, my father and mother are in danger too. I won't say anything. I'm sorry..." the guy said sadly.

- We'll come back to this conversation later! - frowning, the blonde left the interrogation room, followed by the brunette.

- You're overreacting. - Lena remarked.

- Luthor, go to hell! This is my investigation and I'll decide how I react! - The blonde was getting angry and started raising her voice at her boss.

- Calm down. We'll figure out what to do next. - The brunette promised and looked at her watch. - But that's tomorrow, the working day is over.

- See you tomorrow. - Kara mumbled.

- See you tomorrow. - the brunette said goodbye. - Don't be late.

**********

- Luthor, what the fuck?! - Kara burst into her boss's office the next morning without knocking. - Why was William let go?

- I didn't have time to tell you, I figured out how to find where he was getting the drugs from. - Lena nodded toward the chair for the blonde to sit down. - 'We need to track his movements. Someone has to contact him for a new shipment.

- What if he goes underground? You should have consulted me first. - the blonde frowned.

- Everything's under control. Winn checked his cell phone, he's meeting someone soon. 'We don't know the time and place, so we'll be watching all day. - Lena explained.

- How will we know where he is now?

- Winn embedded a tracker in his phone. We'll always know his location. - The brunette reassured her.

- 'Then let's go, let's not waste any time. - Kara got up from her seat and waited for her boss, soon they were both in the car and driving to the right address.

It turned out William was at a coffee shop, he was sitting near the window so he had a great view from the car. No one was around him, everything looked peaceful and calm.

- I have to go to the restroom. - Kara broke the silence and reached for the doorknob.

- If you get out of the car, he'll notice you. - Lena stopped the blonde.

Kara sighed disappointedly and continued to watch the guy.

- I'm hungry. Luthor, we've been stuck here for an hour.

- If you get out of the car, he'll notice you. - Lena warned again.

- He doesn't even look that way. - The blonde looked at the stern look of her boss. - Okay, I'm not going anywhere. Let's find something to do.

- Like what? - The brunette asked with a raised eyebrow.

- Well, you still haven't told me who you have to sleep with to get such a position. - The blonde looked at her boss with a scrutinizing look.

- Is everything in your life about sex? – The brunette asked. – Why can't you imagine that I'm really good at what I do?

- So you're good in bed? - Kara grinned.

- John recommended me for the position. He knows me well as a professional. And guess what, no sex. - The brunette explained with a frown.

- I'd argue about professional," Kara began.

- Is there something you want to tell me? - Lena looked the detective in the eyes. - It's not my fault they made me head of the department. I didn't put myself there.

- I wouldn't mind if a really experienced employee took the place. How much work experience do you have? 2 years?

- 5 years. - answered the brunette.

- That doesn't change much. You're too young for that.

- My professional qualities fully satisfy the management and it is not for you to judge my work. - Lena said sternly and looked out the window. - William came out.

- Finally. - Kara slowly drove behind the guy, keeping her distance.

Soon, they pulled up in front of the college. William entered the building and headed to class.

- I'll be right back... - the blonde quickly ran out of the car and went into a roadside café across from the college.

She came back with a satisfied look and two burgers.

- At the checkout they said it was the most delicious and juicy. - Kara handed one burger to the boss.

The brunette remembered all of her foster mom's comments about what a figure she had. Half of her childhood, Lena had been on diets and denied herself this kind of food. The burger looked really greasy and no matter how much she wanted to eat, she'd be conscience-stricken later. - Thanks, I don't want one.

- Come on, there's still no telling when you'll get to eat. - Kara continued to hold out the burger to her.

- I told you, I don't want to. You eat two. - The brunette remembered what the detective's abs looked like and compared them to her soft belly, which made the desire to eat completely disappear, and there was a slight feeling of shame and embarrassment.

- Suit yourself..." the blonde shrugged and began chewing.

**********

When William left the college, it was already dark outside. Their work day was over, but it was necessary to continue the stakeout. The girls drove to the guy's house where he sat down near the driveway and didn't go inside.

- My workday is long over and instead of now relaxing in pleasant company, I am here with you. - Kara grumbles.

- If you're unhappy, hand in your resignation letter. I realize you're used to everything coming easy to you, but this is an investigation and we have to do our best. - says the brunette coldly.

- Luthor gonna tell me that I have it easy? You don't even know me! Just because things are good in my life X right now doesn't mean they always have been. - Kara said menacingly.

- What do you know about having a hard life? You have a loving sister, I'm sure the rest of the family is like that. You've never been humiliated because of the way you look. Do you know what my mother gave me for my 15th birthday? - the brunette asked sadly. - A bike trainer and a consultation with a nutritionist.

Kara was silent, thinking over what she had said and soon broke the silence. - It wasn't always like this... I was adopted at the age of thirteen, after my entire family was killed in a car accident. Of course I love Alex and my adoptive mom, but it will never replace them. And about looks... No one in middle school wanted to hang out with me because of my looks. It was the daily name-calling, the hurtful drawings taped to my locker, and the various silly poems and songs that were made up by everyone who barely even knew me.

- I didn't know…-" Lena frowned. - Why were they treating you like that? You're pretty cute. Now everyone likes you and people literally jump on you. What was wrong with your classmates? I'm sorry... I can't ask that, it's your own....

- Don't worry, I don't mind telling you. - Kara took a deep breath and continued, she felt she could tell her boss. - When I was in eighth grade I liked this girl. She was nice and treated me well. We often went to the movies, cafes, or just for a walk. One day I told her that I liked her, to which she reciprocated. We started dating. When it came to sex, she started laughing at me and dumped me.

- Why? Was it your first time? Everyone's first time doesn't work out well... - Lena wanted to support the blonde, she opened up to her, showed her vulnerable side.

- You don't know? I thought the rumors must have gotten around... - Kara looked the brunette in the eyes and saw the complete incomprehension. - I have a penis. I was born this way. The day after the breakup, the whole school found out. Alex was the only one who stood by me and protected me from everyone. That's when I realized that I had found a real sister who wouldn't leave me in trouble.

Lena put her hand on the blonde's thigh, wanting to comfort her somehow. - How did it stop?

- There were a few girls who wanted to try something new. – Kara explained. – One came up to me one day, we chatted, went to a movie, and then slept together. After a while, more and more girls started to be interested in me, my self-confidence and reputation at school started to grow. It was no longer funny to joke about who slept with most of the female students.

- I'm sorry... What I said, like you don't know about the hard life... I was wrong. Losing a parent at that age is hard and painful. And kids at school can be very cruel.

Kara caught her boss's sincere look and covered her hand with her own. - Thank you for your support. I appreciate it.

The brunette was mesmerized by the soft-looking lips. If she looked up, she would see the blonde looking there as well. The girls began to slowly reach out to meet each other, feeling an irresistible attraction happening around them now. Their lips were so close, but moment was interrupted by the sound of the opening door of the house they were watching.

A pretty looking girl with tattoos met William and handed over a small package before quickly disappearing.

- I know her. - The blonde said with a frown.

Chapter Text

- Veronica Sinclair, also known as Roulette. - is reading Lena's file. - Has a criminal record for fraud, suspected of organizing drug sales, but there was little evidence so she was quickly released. Recently moved to National City. Are you sure you know her?

- Yeah. We met about a month ago at a bar. We sat around for a while, talked, then went to her house. Nothing out of the ordinary, seemed like a normal girl. - recalls the blonde. - By the way, she appears every night in this bar, I saw her there later.

- We need to find out what role she plays in the drug business. The surveillance of a simple student, William has passed, but Veronica can notice her. - Lena's thinking. - What do you think?

- We need to set up a wiretap. I'll go to Winn, he'll help. - the blonde offered.

- Okay, but how do we do that? Ideally we get to her house and bug her there.

- It's simple, I'll wait for her at the bar and then go to her house. - Kara shrugged.

- Ask Winn for another micro earpiece, we'll need to keep in touch as well.

The detective went to Winn for the equipment, the friend explained how to use everything and soon, the girls were already sitting in the car.

- Where are we going? - Lena asked, buckling up.

- To the bar. I don't know what time she'll be there, it's better to get there early. - explained the blonde.

The girls got to the right place and stayed seated in the car in front of the place. They put in their micro-headphones and checked their work. After half an hour of watching, no one showed up, the girls didn't talk much, so the blonde got bored.

- Let's do something. - Kara suggested.

- Like what? - Raising an eyebrow, the brunette asked.

- Let's play a game of question and answer. Since I have to spend so much time with you, it's only fair that I learn more about you. - Kara smiled, she wondered what Lena was like outside of work. - I'll get started. What's your favorite color?

- Blue. What's yours? - Lena found the idea of getting to know the blonde interesting.

- Green. By the way, you have very beautiful eyes. - Kara said and noticed a slight blush on her cheeks. - What city did you grow up in?

- Metropolis. I know you're from Midvale. - Lena was ahead of the blonde's possible question.

- You've been studying my personnel file, how nice," Kara smiled.

- You're one of the best employees, of course I looked at your personnel file. - explained the brunette.

- One of? I have the highest clearance rate. I'm the best. - Kara summed it up.

- And modest..." Luthor grinned. - Your confidence is to be envied.

She'd always wondered how the blonde could be so sure of herself. Compared to Lena, who was always doubting herself, worried about what people would think, even though she didn't show it outwardly, Kara had always been the opposite of her.

- Are you saying that's not true? Who's better? - The blonde asked.

Lena thought about it, she really couldn't think of an example. Kara did have the best stats, lots of good feedback from the people she helped.

- Okay, you're the best. - Lena said. - Discipline aside, you're clearly in trouble here.

- Discipline is for losers. Just remember that I'm the best. - smirked Danvers. - What's your favorite movie?

- Titanic. - answered the brunette. - What's yours?

After a few innocent questions, the brunette decided to add more racy topics to the conversation to diversify their game.

- My question... - Lena smirked. - Sex, is it your favorite thing to do?

- Of course! It's obvious. - replied the blonde. - What's your favorite thing to do?

- That's obvious too, work. I love what I do. Otherwise what's the point? - Lena smiled. - Do you consider yourself hot in bed?

- We've already established that I'm very confident. That was a stupid question, I'm the best sex of all my girlfriends. - Shrugged the blonde.

- Don't confuse confidence with self-confidence. - You can't be the best sex of absolutely all your girls. The first times were definitely not the best.

- Bullshit! I have a natural gift. You can ask whoever you want. - Kara said. - What kind of music do you listen to?

- All kinds. There's no particular genre. Have you had many girlfriends or boyfriends? - The brunette asked.

- I haven't had any boyfriends. I've hoop up with a lot of girls. But I've only had two serious relationships. After those attempts, I realized it's not for me. I'm not cut out for it. And I don't want it yet. Maybe I just haven't found a girl with whom I would like to try something serious? - replied the blonde. - How many do you have?

Lena liked how open Kara was with her, honestly answering personal questions. The brunette also wanted to be frank. She felt it brought them closer together.

- Well... I had all my free time to study, I graduated from the institute at the age of 20. There was no time for relationships. - Lena shrugged her shoulders.

- You don't mean to say that you've never had anyone at all? - Kara raised her eyebrows in surprise.

- That's exactly what I said. - The brunette smiled.

- Okay, no relationship... What about sex? - The blonde kept up.

- Roulette was here. - the brunette pointed her finger at the girl approaching the bar. - It would be suspicious to go in right away. We're gonna have to wait a little while.

- Back to the game, you didn't answer my question. - Kara continued.

- It's my turn to ask a question. - the brunette thought for a moment. - What's your favorite dish?

- Potstickers. - Kara smiled broadly, remembering that amazing flavor. - It's the best thing mankind has ever invented.

- How can you eat so much junk food and not get fat? - Lena was surprised and in the mind surfaced a picture with clearly defined abs of the detective.

- I just have a lot of physical activity. - Kara winked. - If you know what I mean. And the gym on the weekends or when I have free time. Back to the sex question... How old were you the first time you had sex?

- I haven't had it yet... - Lena whispered embarrassed.

- What?! - Kara raised her eyebrows in surprise - Are you kidding?

- I told you, studying took up all my free time, then work. And there wasn't the right person... - the brunette explained.

- You don't have to justify yourself to me. I'm surprised that you decided to answer such a personal question. - Kara reassured her.

The brunette herself was surprised that she had told such a thing to the detective. But it did not embarrass her, for some unknown reason she felt that she could trust this girl.

- You were also very frank with me yesterday. - Lena placed her palm on the center armrest.

- However, you don't have to share personal details with me in return. - Kara covered her palm with her own and squeezed lightly, enjoying the tenderness and warmth of her skin.

Both girls felt a flutter and warmth in their chests, but neither wanted to admit it to themselves. The brunette's hand felt so right in the detective's hand.

- Time to go. - Kara checked her micro earpiece one last time and taking the wiretap for Veronica, got out of the car.

The blonde walked over to the bartender and ordered a mug of beer. She turned around in her chair and began to look around the room.

- I hope you don't get drunk quickly? - came the brunette's voice in her earpiece. - I don't want to have to carry you home.

- I know the measure. - Kara answered quietly and continued to look at Veronica.

- How are you going to get to her house? - Lena asked.

- The same way I did last time. - The blonde spotted her target and got up from her seat and headed over to her table.

- I'm not a music box, but you got me. Hey, babe. - Kara said hello with a smile.

- Danvers, you have some really dumb moves. - Lena said into her earpiece. - Who falls for them?

- Hey, honey. Did you miss me? - Veronica grinned.

- Of course I did. I've been up all night thinking about you. Would you like a drink? - The blonde asked. - A beautiful girl like you is my treat.

- Are you going to get me drunk and take advantage of me? - Veronica smirked.

- Only if you don't mind. - Kara smiled. - How are you doing in general? Anything new?

- Let's get down to business. Your place or mine? - Veronica placed her palm on the detective's thigh and squeezed lightly.

- Just like that? - Kara was surprised. - What about getting you drunk?

- Yeah, why complicate things. We both want the same thing, especially with you, I'm sure I'll be satisfied without a drink. - Roulette winked. - Where are we going?

- To you. - Kara smiled. - I liked your bed... And the couch... And the shower...

- Danvers, I don't need to know about the places you had sex with her. - Lena grumbled into her earpiece.

- Did you drive here? - Veronica moved her hand higher up her thigh, dangerously close to her crotch.

- No. Are you? - The blonde bit her lower lip, trying not to let on that she didn't like the touch at all.

- Me, yes. That's interesting. First I'll take you for a ride, and then you'll take me for a ride. But not by car... - Roulette grinned.

Lena listened to the whole conversation and could not control her growing jealousy. They were nothing to each other, but lately their relationship had warmed up and the brunette began to feel some attraction to the detective. If they hadn't been distracted yesterday during their stakeout, who knows what might have happened. She almost kissed her and the blonde was kind of okay with it. Her lips seemed so soft and supple to the touch.

While Lena was pondering, the girls left the bar and got into Roulette's car and drove towards her house.

The brunette moved into the driver's seat and carefully followed them.

**********

The ride was short and after 10 minutes, Lena watched as the girls got out of the car and Veronica teasingly squeezed the blonde's buttock.

- I like your ass. - Veronica praised.

- Just the ass? - Kara raised an eyebrow.

- Not only. - Roulette stroked the detective between her legs, and then they went into the entryway.

- Baby, you got the condoms with you? - Veronica pulled the detective into her apartment and pressed him against the front door, kissing his neck.

- Yeah, they're always with me. - Kara lifted the girl in her arms so that her legs were straddling her hips and turned her around, pinning her against the door. - You're so hot.

Roulette bit the detective's earlobe and whispered hotly. - I want you... I'm going to shower, go to the bedroom, you remember the way.

The blonde let the girl go on the floor. - Make it quick.

- Ew, Danvers, just do your job. Put the bug on and do whatever you want. - Lena's voice came through the earpiece.

As soon as the blonde heard the click of the bathroom door closing, she sprang from her seat and ran into the living room.

- I guess there won't be any important negotiations in the bedroom. - The blonde said quietly.

- Try attaching it to the chandelier. She won't find it there by accident. - Lena advised.

Kara set up a chair and climbing on it, began to attach the wiretap to the chandelier.

- Hurry up, your hot chick will be out soon. - The brunette said glumly.

Kara quickly installed the bug and put the chair away and went into the bedroom.

- Call me in three minutes. - Kara asked. - And don't leave, I'll be out soon.

- You're fast. - Lena grinned pretend.

The blonde heard Veronica leave the bathroom and soon appeared, wrapped in a large towel. She smirked, tossing aside the unnecessary cloth and approached the detective completely naked.

- You like what you see? - Roulette whispered.

Kara stared at the naked body and images of one particular brunette with green eyes surfaced in her mind. She diligently chased them away, realizing it was her boss who had somehow managed to sneak into her heart. She remembered the genuine laughter and warm smiles that sometimes appeared in casual conversation.

- Yes, you are beautiful. - Kara gently ran her palms from her collarbones to her breasts and stroked her hardened nipples with her thumbs.

Heavy breathing and quiet moans could be heard coming from Veronica in the room. The blonde's cell phone rang in her pocket.

- Sorry, it's from work. - Danvers showed the cell phone screen where it said "Boss."

Kara picked up the phone with feigned irritation.

- I'm not going to participate in your role-playing games. - Lena hissed angrily.

- What? Is this an emergency? It's my day off, you have no right! - Kara took a deep breath.

- Danvers, what are you doing? - Not understanding what was happening, asked the brunette.

- Yeah, okay, I'll be right there. - The blonde dropped the call and looked apologetically at Veronica.

- 'I'm sorry babe, I have to run right away. Can't do anything without me. I'll call you.

Kissing the girl's cheek goodbye, Kara quickly ran out of the building and jumped into the car with Lena.

- Let's go. - Kara buckled up. - Do you know how to drive at all?

- I can." The brunette pressed the gas pedal. - What was that? Was it just me, or did you voluntarily give up sex?

- You talk about me like I'm addicted to him. - replied the blonde. - And I don't sleep with suspects.

Lena tried to hide a smile, she was very relieved that the blonde had turned Veronica down.

- What's that smile? - Kara asked with a raised eyebrow.

- A good mood. - Lena quickly came up with an excuse. - Well done, by the way.

- I told you I was a professional. The main thing is that the equipment didn't malfunction.

- When we get to the department, we'll ask Winn. - said the brunette.

The girls arrived and went into the office of the computer genius.

- Winn, is everything all right? - The blonde asked.

- Yes, everything is fine. I'll be monitoring the conversations, with a special program that reacts to keywords. If there's anything important, I'll let you know. In the meantime, you can do other things. - replied the guy, not taking his eyes off the computer.

- Thank you, Winn. - thanked the brunette and the girls left the office.

- Luthor, the workday is over. Do you want to go to the bar? We'll have a mug of beer and chat. - the blonde offered. - My treat.

As much as Lena was attracted to the idea of socializing with the detective in an informal setting, she wanted to set boundaries.

- I hope you don't think I'm like all your other girls. I don't need to be tricked into having sex. I'm not stupid. You're inviting me to a bar to sit and talk, then you're gonna ask me to go to your place? I'm your boss, don't forget. - Lena gave her a stern warning.

- I wasn't going to. - frowned blonde, she was hurt by these words, because she really just wanted to spend time together. - And anyway, you're not my type.

- That's fine. - Lena felt completely wrong about what she was saying. - You're not my type either.

Kara didn't understand why she had invited her boss to the bar in the first place.

- See you tomorrow, Luthor. I'm going to go, as you put it, tricked into having sex. - Kara said, resentfully.

- Tomorrow without being late. - the brunette frowned. - Have fun.

Lena realized that she had overreacted to the blonde's invitation, but it was too late, Kara left.

- Baby, you're such a good kisser. - Alex murmured, pulling away from her sweet lips.

- You know how to kiss, too. - Sam pulled the girl closer by her shirt, bringing their lips together again.

- When do I have to leave? - Alex asked sadly, remembering that the brown-haired girl's daughter was due home soon.

- Ruby had excused herself to spend the night at her friend's house. - Sam bit down and sucked lightly on Alex's earlobe.

- Overnight? - Danvers smirked. - Then we have plenty of time. What do you want to do?

- I'm all yours tonight. It's up to you. If you want, we can just watch a movie, order delivery, cuddle and kiss. - Sam kissed the girl's chin and lightly bit the skin. - Or we could go to the bedroom...

The conversation was interrupted by the unexpected ringing of the doorbell.

- Ruby changed her mind about going to her friend's house? - Alex freaked out.

- No, she has a key. It's definitely not her. - Sam reassured her.

- Let's pretend no one's here, shall we? - The older Danvers asked, not wanting to be away from her girlfriend for a minute.

The doorbell rang again.

- It must be the neighbor again, hold on a second. - The brown-haired gave the detective a quick peck on the lips and ran to open the door.

A flustered Lena stood on the doorstep, holding a bottle of red wine.

- I need to talk to you. - Showing the bottle, the brunette said.

- Lena? Is something wrong? Is it important? - Sam asked out of breath.

- Yeah... I need to talk to you about something. - Lena looked over her friend's shoulder and saw the detective peering out from around ine corner.

- Am I interrupting? I'm sorry... Next time... - Lena turned around, about to walk away, but was stopped by the brown-haired woman's hand.

- Uh, wait. - Sam said. - Stay here, don't go anywhere.

The brown-haired woman walked over to Alex and whispered something in her ear. The detective nodded, kissed the girl on the cheek and, having said goodbye to Lena, left the apartment.

- You shouldn't have... - Lena looked at her friend confusedly as she closed the door behind her.

- Lena, I can see that something is bothering you. Alex understood. - Sam sat the brunette down on the couch, took out two glasses and also sat down next to her and started pouring wine for them. - Sure, you ruined some great sex for me, but I'll get over it.

- I'm sorry. I should have called first. - Sighing sadly, Lena took the glass she was handed and twirled it nervously in her hand.

- That would have been nice. - Sam grinned, and seeing nothing but sadness on her friend's face, she frowned. - I think this is serious. Spill it, you know you can trust me.

- I'm starting to like Kara. A lot. - The brunette drained her glass. - I don't know what to do about it.

Sam raised an eyebrow in surprise at her friend's statement. - You don't know? Lena, you're a big girl now. Should I teach you how to flirt or flirt? I didn't realize you didn't know how. Although you could just undo more buttons on your work blouse, she wouldn't be able to resist...

- Sam! - Lena sighed heavily and poured herself some more wine. - I'm her boss, she's my subordinate, nothing can happen between us.

- You realize that's stupid, don't you? - The brown-haired girl asked with a raised eyebrow. - You like her, maybe she likes you too.

- It's not right. I just need you to help me do something about it. - The brunette hesitated and sipped her wine. - I need a distraction, to stop thinking about her.

- Lena... - Sam looked at her friend and seeing the determined and thoughtful look she continued. - Okay, we can go to a club, have some fun.

- Yeah, great, come on. - Lena finished her glass and got up from the couch.

- Now?! - was surprised by the shaten and, realizing that the brunette was being serious, ran after her. - Good.

After a quick gathering, Lena stopped on a beautiful black, tight all the right places dress and high black heels, the image was completed by her favorite red lipstick.

The girls left the house and went to the nearest decent establishment. There were a lot of people in the club and loud music was playing. The friends approached the bar and ordered a couple of cocktails, began to chat, telling each other funny stories or discussing the latest celebrity news from TV.

- Are you bored? - a young guy approached the brunette.

- No. - Lena said firmly and turned her back to her friend, after which the guy left.

- Why did you blow him off? - didn't understand the brunette.

- He's not my type. And I didn't come here to look for a one-night stand. I just want to unwind.

- He's not your type because he's not a tall blonde with great muscles? - Sam asked cheerfully.

- No! He's just not my type. - The brunette's gaze stopped at the other end of the club, where the mentioned blonde was sitting at a table with some cute red-haired girl. - Sam, we're leaving!

- What? No! We just got here. - Sam looked at her friend incomprehensibly.

- There's Kara! - Lena exclaimed quietly and pointed her finger in the blonde's direction, then turned away. - She's not alone.

- Wow! They're kissing. - The brown-haired girl found the detective's gaze. - She's going to swallow her right now! Even for me, it's too indecent for a public place.

Lena looked at the blonde again and saw the redhead sit almost completely on the girl's lap and kiss her passionately, burying her hands in her blonde hair.

- Tequila! - Lena shouted to the bartender. - Two. Or better three.

- She's coming this way. - whispered Sam.

The blonde walked over to the bartender and ordered a couple of cocktails.

- Kara, hey. - Sam said hello with a smile. - How are you?

- Sam, good to see you. I'm great. - Kara also smiled. - Luthor, you're here, too?

- Uh, hi. - the brunette put a smile on her face.

- I thought you didn't go to places like this. Or did you just not want to go with me? - The blonde was surprised.

- It was spontaneous, Sam suggested it, and I couldn't say no to my friend. I see you're not wasting any time. - Lena nodded towards the table where the redhead was waiting. - Pretty girl.

The conversation was interrupted by a man who came over to meet the brunette. - Hey, your pussy's on the line.

- Back off. - Lena frowned.

- Why so rude? Why don't we talk? I have a great bed at home for socializing...

- Don't you get it? She said back off! - Kara jumped in.

- No one asked you. - The man waved her off and continued to address Lena. - If you don't want to come to my place, we can go to your place, your bed is fine too.

- I don't want to. - The brunette felt uncomfortable with this conversation, she didn't want to be around this man.

- Come on, you'll love it. - he smirked and tried to grab Lena's ass.

- Are you stupid? - Kara noticed the brunette's dislike and intercepted his hand. - She doesn't like you.

- Fuck you! - The man shoved the blonde in the shoulder. - Stay out of the way.

- Let's go outside. - Kara frowned.

- Kara, why don't we just call security? - Lena suggested worriedly.

- I don't need security, I can deal with the idiot myself. - replied the blonde and looked sternly at the man again. - Are you coming or have you pissed yourself?

- I don't hit girls, but I'll make an exception for you. - he walked towards the exit. - Don't cry afterwards.

- Stay here. - Kara asked the girls and went out as well.

Of course, they didn't listen and a minute later they ran outside, struggling to make their way through the dancing people who had appeared as soon as the new music started playing. By the time they came out, Kara was already holding him by his shirt, pinned against the wall. She had a busted lip, but otherwise no injuries. The man was also well hurt, a split eyebrow and a painful looking, bloody nose.

- Okay, I hear you. - he whimpered in pain. - I won't hit on her again.

The blonde let go of him, after which he quickly walked farther away.

- Kara, is everything okay? Are you hurt? - The concerned brunette ran up to the detective.

- I'm fine, a little dizzy, but it could be worse. - Kara wrinkled her nose a little.

- I'll call Alex, she'll take you home. - Sam pulled out her phone and dialed the older Danvers' number.

- Why did you get into a fight with him? He could have hurt you. - Lena stepped closer and took the blonde's chin and examined her busted lip. - When you get home, make sure you treat the wound.

- I saw him hitting on you. - replied the blonde. - I couldn't let it go and do nothing.

- Thank you. - whispered the brunette.

- Anyone in my position would have done the same thing. - Kara dismissed it.

- Not anyone. So, thank you. - Lena smiled and remembered one unpleasant detail. - I think there's a redheaded girl waiting for you.

- She's not important. I want to stay here in case someone bothers you again. - replied the blonde.

Lena was pleased that Kara hadn't stayed away and dealt with the annoying man. No one had ever stood up for her like that before.

Soon Alex pulled up and got out of the car to say hello to the girls.

- Hi, everyone. - Sr. Danvers' gaze stopped on her sister, or rather on her busted lip. - What happened?

- Pimple popped. It's nothing. - Kara said goodbye to Lena and Sam with a smile, then got into the car.

- I hope she didn't do anything wrong? - Alex asked the girls worriedly. - Sometimes, she has a temper...

- No, don't worry. - Sam reassured her and kissed her goodbye on the cheek. - See you tomorrow.

Alex got into the driver's seat and the car left quickly, leaving the girls to wait for their cab. The driver arrived quickly and they went home without any adventures.

**********

- Why don't you tell me what happened? - Alex broke the silence without taking her eyes off the road. - Who beat you up like that?

- Nothing bad happened. I just stood up for someone. - Kara explained.

- Who? I didn't see a scared and grateful girl next to you. - Alex asked. - Or wait... Was it Lena!

- You're such a guesser. - grumbled Kara.

- Yeah, thanks, I know, for a reason, I'm a better detective. - Alex grinned.

- Lena admitted that I'm the best detective. - The blonde hurried to upset her sister.

- Since when do you call her by her first name? Where did “Witch” go? - the elder Danvers wondered.

- She's not a witch. Witches don't have such beautiful hair, and eyes, and voice, and…

- Wait, wait. - Alex looked at her sister with a raised eyebrow, looking away from the road for a second until there were no cars there. - Do you like her!

- No! – Kara exclaimed. - 'She's just... just... I don't like her!

- You have a crush. - Alex summed it up. - You've got a crush. You smell like a teenager in love. It stinks.

- Don't be ridiculous. I don't smell like anything. - The blonde frowned and reached up and sniffed her armpit. - It's just deodorant.

- Stop denying the obvious. When was the last time you said that about a girl? Beautiful hair, eyes, voice... I know you too well. You like her.

- Okay. - Kara took a deep breath. - Maybe you're right... There's something about her. I can't explain what it is... I don't know what to do. I even went to a club tonight to distract myself from thinking about her. I ended up kissing a girl and imagining my boss.

- It's okay to have relationships, date, fall in love, you can't spend your whole life looking for one-night stands. You finally really like someone. I thought I'd never get to see my nephews...

- Alex! What nephews? She doesn't like me, she said me not her type. She didn't even want to go out for a drink with me. - the blonde sighed sadly.

- She said that? - Alex wondered.

- Yes, after I said the same thing about her... - Kara thought. - I'm stupid... What else could she say to me?

- You just don't have experience in relationships. - her sister reassured her. - Try just talking to her, honestly and openly. I think you two might have a mutual thing.

- Easy to say, talk... - the blonde frowned, trying to think in her head how to start such a conversation with her boss. - How are things with you and Sam?

- Everything's great. - Alex smiled broadly. - I offered her to be my girlfriend, she couldn't resist my charms. Now, we're dating.

- That's great! I congratulate you! - Kara was happy for her sister. - You two look great together.

- She's amazing. I haven't been this happy in a long time, falling in love does its job. - Alex grinned. - And she has a daughter. Ruby, she's twelve years old.

- Doesn't that scare you? - Kara wondered what it would be like to be in a relationship with a girl who already had a child.

- No, I like kids, it's not a problem. - replied the older Danvers. - I've always wanted a baby and now I know Sam will be okay with it. We've talked about it.

- Have you two met? How's Ruby reacting to you?

- No, we haven't, I don't think it's time yet. We're just getting started, in case something goes wrong. - Alex thinks. - We'll get there. I hope she likes me. Her daughter means a lot to Sam.

- I'm sure you two will get along.

- Be sure to talk to Lena. - Alex drove up to her sister's house and stopped the car.

- Would you like to come in? - The blonde offered, unbuckling her seatbelt. - We'll chat, watch a movie, I found a new delivery, they have great potstickers.

- We have to work tomorrow, so we have to go to bed early. - Alex reminded. - And Lena doesn't like tardiness, don't forget.

- Okay, any other tips? - Kara asked. - I really want her to like me.

- Be yourself with her, you're a good person and you deserve a nice girl.

The sisters said goodbye and Kara went into her apartment. She couldn't sleep for a long time, thinking about how she could talk to her boss. What would happen if she turned her down. That was why, the blonde didn't like relationships, it was too complicated and could cause a lot of pain.

Later that night, she dreamed of beautiful hands, pale skin, green eyes, dark hair and plump red lips.

Chapter Text

For the entire next week, Kara couldn't talk to her boss about a topic that bothered her. Sure, they talked, but they were only work topics. She felt a sense of dread, afraid of rejection. That was rare for the blonde.

There had been no news from Winn all week either, in Veronica's apartment, nothing suspicious had happened. The investigation had come to a standstill.

On this day, the blonde sat in her office and sorted through various papers. She had to file cases, organize them in the safe, work on other materials, and many other work tasks that she had never gotten around to before.

She was about to go to lunch when the excited boss burst into the office, so beautiful in that tight skirt and blouse, with a couple of buttons undone, so perfectly revealing a view of her cleavage.

- Danvers, Winn heard something from Roulette's apartment. - Lena mumbled, not noticing where the blonde was looking. - We need to get to him right away.

- Is Veronica discussing her illegal business? - Kara got up from her chair and followed the brunette into the computer genius's office.

- Yes, he said he recorded the conversation and we need to listen to it. - The girls walked over to Winn's desk.

- I've been checking the wiretaps all week. Today, a suspicious man showed up at Veronica's house. I don't know who he was, but they were talking about something suspicious.

- Turn it on. - Kara crossed her arms over her chest and frowned, making the muscles under her shirt tense and giving her forehead the charming wrinkle Luthor had come to love so much lately.

- I'm out of product, I need a new shipment. - came an unfamiliar voice from the speakers.

- There's nothing yet. A new batch will be brought to the warehouse tonight, come back tomorrow. - replied Veronica.

The girls listened to the tape in full, but Roulette did not say anything about the location of the warehouse.

- We need to find out the location. - Kara interrupted the silence. - It'll lead us to the head of this business. Veronica's obviously just a pawn. We need to get to the top or this won't stop.

- Yeah, you're right. We should be at that warehouse tonight. - Lena's been thinking. - There's nothing left to do but follow her. Only we'd have to be very careful, if she suspected something wrong, she wouldn't go anywhere.

- Half the day in the car again? - The blonde took a deep breath. - Just let's get some food for the ambush. I want potstickers.

- Okay, we'll stop by the café. - The brunette agreed.

The girls drove into the blonde's favorite establishment, where the detective ordered several portions of potstickers. Lena preferred not to take fatty food, and took a salad with cabbage.

Having approached Veronica's house in advance, they began to wait for the girl to come out. Kara took out her potstickers and began to eat them with delight.

- The most delicious food in the world! - she enjoyed each potstickers like a child in a toy store.

- It's just dough and stuffing, nothing outstanding. I don't know why you like them so much. - Lena smiled at the satisfied look of the detective stuffing too much food into her mouth.

- You haven't tasted them! - Kara exclaimed as she chewed and saw the boss shrug her shoulders. - Luthor, it's a crime, you have to try it. It's a hundred times better than your nasty cabbage.

- It's not nasty. - Lena thought about the blonde's suggestion and came up with her own terms. - I'll try the potstickers if you try my salad.

- That's not fair. - Kara pouted. - I'm offering you delicious, juicy, flavorful, delicious potstickers. It's not fair to offer you disgusting cabbage in return.

- So I'm not gonna try your nasty potstickers. - the brunette went back to her salad, trying not to look at the detective.

- Nasty?! - Kara almost choked with indignation. - Take that back.

- I won't. You called my cabbage nasty, so I can also call your potstickers. - the brunette raised an eyebrow playfully. - Or you could try the salad.

- Just for the sake of the potstickers. - Kara took a deep breath. - Just a small bite.

Lena smiled and poked a small cabbage leaf on her fork.

- Open your mouth. - The brunette asked. - It's not poisoned.

The blonde slowly opened her mouth and then felt the vegetable on her tongue. She wrinkled her nose and started chewing.

- There you see, it's no big deal. - Luthor smiled widely at the amused expression on the detective's face.

Kara looked at the brunette and realized she'd eat all the cabbage in the world if it meant she got to see that stunning smile more often. Danvers felt butterflies flutter in her stomach.

- It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. But still, I don't like cabbage. - Kara swallowed with difficulty. - Now it's your turn.

The blonde watched as Luthor put a potsticker in her mouth and began chewing. When she groaned at the taste, Kara felt her mouth go dry, her cheeks redden slightly, and her heart skip a beat or two.

- This is delicious! - Lena smiled as she chewed. - I take that back, they're not nasty.

- Yes... They are... - Kara still hadn't fully recovered from her boss's moans, they weren't erotic, but the blonde couldn't stop imagining. - Yeah, they're delicious.

- Yeah." the brunette smirked as she noticed the blush on the detective's face.

- Would you like some more? I can run out and get some. Or you can have mine. - The blonde never shared her food, especially potstickers, she loved them too much, but Lena was the exception to all the rules.

- No, thanks. I don't think they'll do me any good. - Lena remembered that she had to watch her weight if she wanted the blonde to like her even a little.

- What do you mean? It's all natural, all quality products. - Kara said. - I know the supplier personally, the meat comes from a good farm.

- I understand, but my sides won't like them. - The brunette patted her tummy and hips, trying to emphasize what she said.

- You're not serious, are you? - Kara raised her eyebrows in surprise.

- I am. Not everyone here has abs. - Lena imagined the blonde's muscles again, how she would like to touch them, to trace that beautiful relief with her fingers.

- You have an amazing figure! You don't have to have abs for that. - Kara frowned, studying her boss's body, trying not to look lustful. - I like your curves. Anyone in their right mind would like them. You have a great figure. I say that as someone who knows a lot about women's bodies. You don't have to worry.

- If I don't worry, I'll get fat. - Lena explained and realized that the blonde had assessed her figure and said she liked it. - So I'm your type after all?

- You... I... Well... - Kara tried to find the words to explain herself, Lena caught her, she was feeling a rare sense of embarrassment. - Yeah. You're my type. All girls are my type. - she quickly came up with an excuse.

They sat there until evening, it was already dark outside when they noticed Veronica coming out of the entrance. The girl got into her car and headed off in an unknown direction.

The blonde drove after her, trying not to lose sight of her, while keeping a distance so as not to give away the surveillance.

- Have you had this experience before? - Lena asked. - Not following teenagers, but influential people in the criminal world.

- Once. It was a major official suspected of a series of rapes and murders. Very careful, but he didn't see me. - Kara told. - You may have even heard of him, it was a big case.

- Yeah, I did. They showed his arrest on the news. - recalls the brunette. - You did a great job.

- We worked this case with Alex. Couldn't have done it without her. She's very good at what she does. In some ways even better than me. - The blonde smiled sincerely. - Don't tell her I said that.

- I won't. - Luthor promised.

After an hour of driving, they finally reached some abandoned factory. There were no people to be seen around. The girls decided to park in front of the entrance and wait to see what would happen next. The tape measure drove inside and didn't come out for a long time.

- Should we check it out? - Kara suggested and reached to open the car door. - I have my gun with me.

- You're not going in there alone. - The brunette followed the detective out. - I have a gun, too.

- I can't put you in danger. - Kara objected.

- Don't forget, I'm a cop too, and I'm your boss. I can stand up for myself. - Lena did not accept any objections and walked towards the factory.

- Luthor, what are you doing?! - The blonde caught up with the boss and stopped her. - At least obey me, otherwise you'll give us away.

The girls carefully made their way inside, Kara walking ahead the whole time, trying to check every corner so they wouldn't be spotted. They walked quietly into the building, which looked dilapidated inside, and began to listen.

- When is he coming? My men have run out of goods, nothing to sell! - Roulette got angry.

- Have patience. He's a busy man, you're lucky to meet him in person. - came the voice of an unknown man.

- I have half the drug dealers in city under my command, so he couldn't help but meet me in person. - Roulette snorted.

The girls followed the voices, trying to walk silently. They went up to the second floor of the building, where they had a good view of the people below, and hiding behind the crates, began to peek and listen carefully.

Half an hour later several people entered the room, it was obvious that two of them were guards, and at the head of them was their boss, a powerful bald man in a suit, he was walking with his back to the girls, so his face was not visible.

- I apologize for being late. There was a lot of important business today. Here's the merchandise. - the bald man handed Roulette a sports bag through his guards. - Where's the money?

- The money is already in an offshore account. - Roulette accepted the goods. - When will there be a delivery of the new drug?

- Soon... - said the bald man. - As long as the control tests are going on. As soon as it's ready, I'll let you know.

Luthor, hiding behind a crate, couldn't see the man's face, but she couldn't mistake that voice, that familiar voice she'd heard all her childhood.

- Lex... - the brunette whispered. - Kara, I know that man... That's my brother.

- Lex Luthor? - the blonde was surprised. - Are you sure?

- It's definitely him. - Lena said.

After waiting for everyone to leave, the girls also left the building and got into the car.

- Lena, are you sure? Was it your brother? - The blonde asked again.

- I know his voice. - Lena frowned. - Especially when he was leaving, I saw his face. It's Lex.

- Good. - Kara exhaled heavily. - He was your brother, who was already being chased by the police and had a record. Now he's starting a drug empire.

- I've long since accepted that Lex is a criminal. It was hard and painful at first, but now I realize that my brother is gone, he's not the man I once knew and loved. - Luthor said.

- So it's okay, then? - Kara asked worriedly. - That it's Lex, your brother, and not someone else, doesn't bother you?

- No, I realize he's not a good person, and the fact that he's my brother doesn't change anything. - Lena assured her.

- Let's go home? - suggested the blonde. - It's too late to go to the department.

- Let's go. - The boss sighed heavily.

The brunette said her address and soon the girls drove to her house.

- Great job today. - Lena unbuckled her seat belt.

- Yes, I think everything will be easier and faster now. - said the blonde.

- Yeah... - Luthor looked longingly at the detective, she wanted so badly to talk to her about her feelings, but she was afraid. - Good night.

- You're not even going to invite me to tea? - Kara asked. - Let's chat...

- Kara... - the brunette began. She realized she probably meant Danvers, as much as she wanted to, sex without commitment would only make things worse. - Have you forgotten? We've had this conversation before. I'm the boss, you're the subordinate. Don't try to get in my pants, I'm not your next fling.

- Lena! What makes you think that's what I want from you? - The blonde frowned. - I realized from the first time, I don't want anything from you.

- I'm glad you realize that. - The brunette wished Kara needed something more from her, that the detective needed her, more than just for once. - I'll see you tomorrow.

- Good night. - The blonde said goodbye and went home without talking about what she wanted to talk about.

Lena was so tired for today, she wanted to relax in a hot bath, add foam and turn on her favorite music. The fact that Lex was at the head of this drug business was upsetting, but she'd already accepted that she'd lost her brother.

Besides work, the brunette was worried about something else. How could she begin to have any feelings for a woman who didn't want a relationship or commitment. These feelings came on so fast and strong, she had never experienced anything like this before. It was hard, it was weighing on her from the inside more than her brother was a criminal.

Lena went up to her floor and took the key out of her bag and started to open the door. Because of all these thoughts, she didn't notice how someone came up behind her and pushed a cloth soaked in some stinking substance into her face.

The last thing she felt was someone holding her tightly, her eyes went blurry, her body felt woozy, and then only darkness....

Chapter Text

The blonde woke up with a firm intention to talk to her boss. She can't hold it all in anymore, she needs to talk about her feelings. Even if the brunette said no, at least she would know.

Today they had to think of a plan of further action. They needed to stop the illegal production and sale of drugs. Also, the most important task was to catch Lex and bring him to justice.

Kara dressed in a blue shirt and navy blue pants, just the way her boss liked it, business casual. She left the house, got in her car and headed to the department. Arriving early, Kara decided to stop by the brunette's office and see if there was any news about Lex.

The blonde yanked the doorknob and realized that Luthor wasn't there. Kara knew the brunette came in before everyone else, which meant she was in the department, but only in a different office.

Pulling out her cell phone and dialing a number, no one answered. She called several times, hoping the girl just didn't hear the call. After an hour of waiting and several dozen unanswered calls, Danvers realized something fishy was going on. Lena was not even at the morning briefing, which was simply unimaginable for a punctual boss.

- Kara, where's Luthor? - The blonde was approached by her sister.

- I don't know... - Kara frowned. - Maybe she got sick?

- And she didn't warn anyone? - Alex was surprised. - That's not like her.

Upon thinking about it, Kara realized that this really didn't sound like Lena.

- You're right. I'll find her. - The blonde promised and set out to find her.

Kara decided to go to her apartment. She got her apartment number from HR, using her charm and, of course, a chocolate bar, and went to see if Lena was okay.

Arriving at the house, the blonde went up to the right floor and started ringing and knocking on the door. No one opened. She pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number. No one answered. Turning away from the door, Kara was about to leave when she noticed a handkerchief lying on the mat by the front door. Picking it up and sniffing it, her attention was caught by the pungent odor emanating from the cloth.

- What happened to you, Luthor? - The blonde asked into the emptiness of the entryway.

**********

Lena woke up in some dark and large room. She was sitting in a chair, each arm tied to the armrests so that she couldn't move. Her head was splitting and her wrists ached from the rope. She didn't realize where she was, how long she had been here, what time it was.

Soon there was the sound of someone's footsteps and a familiar figure approached, a guard standing next to her.

- Roulette, hello. - Lena said glumly. - How are you?

- Lena Luthor. - Roulette smirked. - Only because of respect for your surname you are now sitting without a bullet in your forehead.

- What do you want from me? - Lena asked.

- Isn't it obvious? - Veronica was surprised. - Or did you think I wouldn't recognize that you were following me?

- I don't know what you're talking about. - The brunette began to retort. - No one was following you.

- Stop it, I know everything! - Roulette got angry. - You could at least change cars. First standing in front of my driveway, then in front of the factory... Do you think I'm stupid?

- What makes you think it was me? - Lena asked.

- Yesterday, when I noticed the car standing there, I instructed my men to follow it. Unlike me, you're very inattentive. - Roulette explained.

- What do you want from me? - Luthor didn't understand. - Why kidnap?

- It's better this way. If I see surveillance again or the two of you interfere with business, we won't talk like this anymore. - Veronica warned.

- I'm the only one on this case. - Lena realized that no one would believe that, but she was scared for Kara. - And I'm not going to stop the investigation. You're gonna go to prison with Lex.

- Then you're gonna have to sit here a while longer, think about your behavior. Let's see how you talk after a few days without food and water... - Roulette turned around, about to leave, but decided to make it clear that she knew more than Lena realized. - Tell Detective Danvers she's only good at fucking, not catching criminals.

- Fuck you! - The brunette shouted after her.

**********

Kara realized that Luthor was in some kind of trouble. She took the handkerchief she'd found, sealed it in a sealed bag, and drove to the department.

- Brainy, this is an emergency. - the blonde burst into her friend's office. - I need you to run a quick chemical analysis.

- Hello to you, too. - said hello to Brainy. - What's the emergency? Analyze what?

- Uh, this. - Kara threw a bag of tissues on his desk. - Lena's missing, and I think this was used to kidnap her.

- She was kidnapped? - Brainy was surprised and put on his gloves and pulled out the handkerchief. - Are you sure?

- I'm not sure of anything yet. Just do the analysis, don't tell anyone yet, we need to be sure.

- Will do. I'll try to do it in half an hour, maybe sooner. - Brainy went straight to work, putting everything else aside.

Kara left her friend's office and ran to Winn.

- Don't ask anything, I need the security tapes from the Luthor house. - The blonde burst in on the computer genius. - Inside the house, outside, cameras at the nearest intersection, wherever there's a view of her driveway and the surrounding area. Time, about ten o'clock at night.

- Why? - Winn asked.

- I told you not to ask, I'm not sure of anything myself yet. - said the blonde.

- Okay. Wait a minute... - the guy entered the data into the computer and started searching.

First, Winn turned on the video from the camera inside the entrance, near the stairwell and elevators, where he had a good view of everyone entering and leaving the building.

- Right there, she went into the elevator. - Winn commented, looking at the monitor.

He began to rewind the video until he saw the elevator doors opening again. The camera clearly showed a large man slinging Luthor onto his shoulder and walking toward the exit.

- Fuck! - Kara exclaimed.

- She's been kidnapped?! - Winn freaked out. - Who would kidnap the head of the police department?

- Turn on the cameras on the front porch. - The blonde asked calmly.

Winn clicked a couple of buttons and a new video opened. This time the entrance to the porch and the cars parked in front of it were perfectly visible.

A man with Lena on his shoulder, threw her into the car, got into the driver's seat, and drove off in an unknown direction.

- Run his license plate, trace his route on the cameras, and give me a final destination if you can. - asked the blonde. - I believe in you, I need to find her as soon as possible. 

- I'll do my best. I'll send you all the data to your e-mail. - Winn immediately began to work, began to enter various data into the computer program and scroll through the cameras.

The blonde quickly left her friend's office and practically ran to Brainy.

- Well? - Kara asked, out of breath.

- I was just about to call you. - Brainy took off the latex gloves he'd been examining and continued. - This is chloroform. You can use it to make a person unconscious. The handkerchief is very generously soaked in it, so it happened in a matter of seconds. - explained Brainy.

- So it's not a drug. - the blonde exhaled in relief. - Just a sleeping pill.

- Yes, it's not a drug, but it's still a very toxic substance... - before the guy could finish, the blonde had already flown out of the office to look for her sister.

- Alex, Lena's been kidnapped! - Kara stormed into senior Danvers' office. - Winn and I checked the cameras, she was sedated and some asshole took her away. - the blonde said in a frightened voice. - He's figuring out where they took her now, and we have to save her.

- Kara, breathe. We'll find her. - Alex tried to reassure her sister.

- Alex... What if something's already happened to her? I wouldn't forgive myself if she got hurt. I'm sure it's because of the case we're on, you don't know what kind of people they are. They don't care if she's a police officer. They might just kill her... - the blonde could barely hold back her tears, she was so scared for Lena.

- It's going to be okay. - Alex came to her sister and hugged her, stroking her back soothingly. - We'll definitely find her.

Half an hour later, the blonde received a message on her email with an address that Winn had tracked through the security cameras.

- Let's go. - the blonde told her sister. - I've got the address.

- We need an extraction team. If she's being held, these people are armed and dangerous. - Alex slowed her down.

- I don't care. I don't want to waste another minute. Anything could happen to her. - Kara frowned and ran out of the office.

- Okay, we'll go now. But I'm still calling an extraction team to this address. - Alex caught up with her sister and called on the phone for backup.

Getting into the car, the blonde drove off sharply, breaking all kinds of traffic rules and speed limits. She didn't care about the fines that were sure to come, all she cared about was Lena's life and health.

**********

The brunette continued to sit in the same place Roulette had left her. After a few hours, the headache was almost gone, so she could listen to everything that was going on outside of her field of vision. She could hear some banging, some rumbling, sometimes people's voices. It felt like she was in some sort of manufacturing facility. She began to suspect that this might be the place where drugs were synthesized. Her musings were interrupted by the door opening.

- Hey, sis. Pleasant meeting. - said hello to the bald man.

- Lex. I can't say it's a pleasant, - Lena muttered. - Why are you here?

- Roulette said you're not making contact. I'm here to help make that happen. - Lex nodded to the guard standing next to him and he pulled out a syringe filled with a substance unknown to the brunette.

- What are you up to? - Lena was scared.

- It's simple. - Lex smirked. - I'm going to inject you with this drug. It's the one that killed the guy. It's a new synthetic drug I developed.

- Why would you do that? You're just gonna kill me! - Lena panicked.

- It's not that simple, dear sister. It's an improved version. - Lex continued calmly. - I'm going to inject you with a small dose, make your body addictive. You won't be able to go a day without another shot. If you do as I say, you'll have constant access and you won't die from extreme withdrawal, which will be such that you won't last long. Trust me, I've done the tests.

- You're a monster! - Lena screamed.

- I'm just a businessman. - Lex replied and signaled the guard to get down to business. - You should have agreed right away, Roulette suggested to you.

The guard removed the cap from the syringe needle, walked over to the brunette and grabbed her arm to roll up her sleeve.

- Don't! Please! - the girl cried out fearfully, tears pouring uncontrollably from her eyes. - Lex, don't do this!

- Sweet Lena, it's no big deal, you'll be an addict for the rest of your life. You shouldn't have gotten in my way. - Lex grinned and turned around and walked out of the room.

- Lex, don't do this! - Lena yelled after her brother, crying and kicking hard, preventing him from sticking the syringe in her vein.

- Stop it, bitch! - shouted the guard and slapped the brunette.

**********

An hour ago...

The Danvers sisters arrived at the address Winn had figured out and Kara recognized the place immediately.

- We were here yesterday. - The blonde looked around.

This time it wasn't dark outside yet, so there was a lot to see. They drove around and realized that it was quite a large area. Some hangars, giant pipes, small buildings, and the main five-story factory building. Everything was abandoned, some places had broken windows and sprinkled building cladding.

- The extraction team was caught in a traffic jam, there was no telling when they would be. - Alex read the text message that had arrived on her phone.

- Then we'll go on our own. Do you have a gun with you? - Kara asked.

- Of course, I knew where I was going. - Alex took the gun out of the holster and checked the magazine. - Can't we wait for reinforcements?

- We're wasting time. They could do anything to her, we can't wait a minute. - the blonde got out of the car and went into the factory.

- You don't know where they're keeping her. - Alex tried to keep up with her sister.

- Then we'll look everywhere. Quickly and quietly, we can't be seen. - Kara drew her gun and pulled the bolt.

After forty minutes of searching, no one had spotted them, surprisingly there weren't many guards. They had bypassed most of the grounds and only the main building remained.

- It's dangerous to go there, let's wait for the extraction team, they'll be there soon. - Alex told the blonde.

- Text them where we went. - Kara waited for her sister to fulfill her request and put the phone away.

The girls entered the building, the first floor was completely deserted, but various voices and noises could be heard in the distance. There were more sounds on the second floor, just as the blonde wanted to go around the corner of the corridor, she heard someone's footsteps.

Stealthily, Kara looked out and saw a familiar bald head, Lex Luthor walking with his guard opening the door to one of the rooms and stepping inside. Moving closer and hiding around the corner, the sisters tried to overhear the conversation.

- Alex, we can't wait any longer. - Kara whispered.

The blonde was about to come out of hiding as the door opened and Lex walked out in an unknown direction.

- Let's go. - Alex quietly opened the door, allowing the blonde to step forward.

The room was semi-dark, Lena was tied in a chair and crying.

- Stop it, bitch! - shouted the man with the syringe, who grabbed the brunette's arm and slapped her.

The blonde looked at the whole scene and without thinking, shot the man in the shoulder. He fell to the floor, letting go of the syringe and started screaming in pain.

Loud shouts of “Get down, police are working!” and approaching stomping could be heard outside.

- Stay here. - Alex grabbed the injured man and dragged him outside.

Kara ran up to the terrified brunette and began to untie the rope.

- Shh, it's okay, I'm here. - She tried to soothe the crying boss.

As soon as Lena's hands were free, she pulled the detective into a tight hug, trying to make sure it was real and she was safe now.

- They didn't do anything to you? - Kara waited for the brunette to calm down and pulled back a little, inspecting the girl for injuries.

- They didn't. - Luthor let out another sob. - I was so scared. You saved me.

- It's all over now. The extraction team is here, everyone in this building is face down on the floor. You have nothing to be afraid of anymore. - the blonde wiped the tears from her boss's cheeks and gave her another hug. - I was scared too.

- Take me home. - The brunette asked. Kara nodded and the girls, without waiting for Alex, got into the car, on the way the blonde warned her sister not to worry and not to lose them.

Arriving at the house, Kara got out with her boss.

- It's out of the question, I'll walk you to the apartment. - Kara said sternly.

- Okay. - Lena smiled at this caring side of the detective.

Once up on the floor, the blonde waited for Luthor to open the front door.

- Can I check the apartment? - Kara asked uncertainly, she felt anxious and couldn't help it, she needed to make sure the brunette was completely safe.

- Yes... You can. - Lena let Kara through and closed the door.

After going around all the rooms, Danvers exhaled in relief, no danger. She was about to leave and reached for the doorknob when she was stopped by a warm hand placed on her forearm.

- Wait... - Lena tried not to look like an insecure schoolgirl.

- Lena, I... - the blonde couldn't finish, Lena pulled her up by her shirt and kissed her soft lips.

Kara immediately responded to the kiss and felt her head spinning and her heart skipping a couple beats. She'd never experienced such a sensation from a normal kiss before. There was no hint of anything dirty, no tongue or passionate nibbling of lips. It was a gentle, unhurried kiss that made her body feel warm and calm.

The brunette realized that she had kissed the girl who occupied all her thoughts, she kept imagining what it would be like to feel those lips on hers. She couldn't imagine the blonde responding to her kiss, it was better than in any of her, even her wildest fantasies. Her legs began to weaken, she felt as if an army of butterflies were fluttering in her stomach, it was an inexpressible sensation. No one had ever kissed her like that before.

They could have stayed like this until morning, but Kara realized that the brunette needed to rest, she'd had a very hard day. Reluctantly pulling away, the blonde smiled softly and whispered: - Sweet dreams.

- Good night.

It was the first time in a long time that Lena had fallen asleep with a smile on her face.

Chapter Text

Because the brunette had been unable to participate in the investigation yesterday and didn't know the new circumstances, she didn't realize what phase of solving the case they were in. In order to find out the details, she called both detectives Danvers, Brainy and Winn into her office.

The sisters were the first to arrive, Lena tried to avoid eye contact with Kara, so after telling them to take a seat at the conference table, she lowered her head into the paperwork, pretending to work passionately.

- Are you okay? How are you feeling? - Kara asked worriedly, pulling the brunette out of her thoughts.

- Yes, thank you, I'm fine. - Lena waved it off and continued to look at the papers.

Soon Brainy and Winn arrived and the whole group was assembled.

- So, a lot happened yesterday and I missed most of it. I have a lot of questions. - Lena began. - How did you find me?

- It was all Winn, without him nothing would have been possible. - The blonde looked at her friend gratefully.

- It was my program. I entered the license plate number into the search and waited for the data to calculate. I just pressed a couple of buttons. - Winn shrugged.

- Well, how did you realize I'd been kidnapped? - Lena kept asking.

- We looked at the cameras in the entryway. They showed you being carried in unconscious. - said the blonde.

- What kind of factory was it? Where was I kept? - Lena asked.

- It was an abandoned pharmaceutical factory. They used to make various medicines there, but the owner went bankrupt. - Alex answered. - Yesterday it was fully inspected and they found an active drug manufacturing facility. A lot of chemical scientists whose families were held hostage by Lex Luthor.

- Where is Lex now? - Lena asked cautiously, trying to hide the tremor in her voice.

- He escaped. - Alex answered, which was exactly what the brunette feared most.

- We've stopped production, but it's imperative that we find Lex. - Kara said.

- Okay, we'll get on it. - The brunette was still trying not to look the detective in the eye. - Thank you all, you can get back to work, and if I have any more questions, I'll call you.

Winn, Brainy and Alex walked out of the office. Lena was sitting tucked into her papers, so she didn't notice the blonde's presence.

- Shall we talk? - Kara asked, causing the brunette to twitch in fright.

- I have a lot of work to do, let's do it later. - Lena pulled out another document, already read and signed three times.

Kara sighed heavily and left.

Waiting for the click of the closed door, the brunette put away all the unnecessary documents and covered her face with her hands.

- Lena, you're just stupid. - She whispered into the emptiness of the office.

For several long hours, the brunette couldn't concentrate on her work, her head was full of thoughts, she couldn't understand why she had kissed Kara yesterday. That momentary weakness had only made things more complicated.

The door opened and a blonde girl came in, carrying a couple of cups of coffee and a paper bag from the diner around the corner.

- Lunch? - The blonde offered with a smile.

- I'm busy. - Lena again pulled out the first documents she could find and stared at them.

- You need to eat. - Kara walked over to her boss's desk and put down coffee and a bag of food.

- Okay, later. - Lena waved her off, wishing the detective would just go away.

At first it seemed that the blonde was satisfied with this answer, she almost left the office, but suddenly turned around.

- Everything okay? Can we talk?

- Everything's fine. I'm really busy. Maybe later? - Lena suggested.

- Okay... - the blonde agreed and left the office.

Lena put her papers away again and groaned and rested her forehead against the desk. A few seconds later, the door opened loudly and the brunette straightened up sharply in her chair.

- Lena, what's going on?! - The blonde walked over to her boss.

- Are you asking me that? - Perplexed brunette. - You barged into my office.

- Why are you avoiding me? - asks the blonde.

- I... I'm not avoiding... There's a lot of work to do today... - Lena starts to get out of it.

- Lena, fuck! I'm not blind, I have eyes. I know when I'm being avoided. Just answer me, why? Did I do something wrong? - Kara looked at the brunette confused and waited for an answer.

- That kiss was a mistake. I don't want to be your one-night stand. You said you didn't want a serious relationship, so I won't force anything on you. - Lena replied frustratedly, avoiding looking into the detective's eyes.

- And what if I want to? - Unexpectedly for the brunette said the blonde, whom Lena still wasn't looking at. - I'm not great at relationships, but I really like you. Not sexually, although that too, but as a person. If you give me a chance, I'll try to do the right thing.

Lena studied the blonde and after some time of silence, smiled uncertainly and said - I like you too...

- Tomorrow, at 9 yesterday, will you go out with me? - The blonde asked excitedly. - A cozy restaurant opened nearby.

- Yes, I will. Will you pick me up? - Lena smiled.

- Sure. - Kara smiled happily and left the office.

**********

Later that afternoon, Lena was checking her e-mail and came across a message from a user unknown to her.

"Dear Lena, this is Lillian.

I'm writing you this letter because I'm afraid to talk to you in person. Yes, I can be afraid. I know I have done so many bad things, made so many bad decisions, I am very sorry. I'm sorry for the way I treated you. I didn't give you the attention you deserve, I did things I'm really ashamed of, you deserve so much more than that.

But I didn't do it because you were bad. I had a hard time accepting my husband cheating on me. It's easier to just shift the blame to someone who can't fight back, to a small and defenseless girl who did nothing wrong. You just showed up, an eternal reminder of what your father did, I saw you every day and took all my anger out on you.

I don't want it to go on like this. I want to give you the motherly warmth that you didn't have. I want to be a loving and understanding mother to you, I know it sounds crazy, but I want to try and fix what I broke so long ago.

I know you hate me, it's well deserved, but I really want to earn your forgiveness. Even though you're not my biological daughter, you are Lionel's daughter, despite everything he did, I loved him and he loved you.

I would be happy to come back into your life, to rejoice in your achievements and to support you in a difficult moment, just to be near you. If you don't want to, you don't have to answer me anything, I'll understand everything and disappear, you'll never see me. But if you decide to give me a chance, just to talk, have a coffee together or a walk in the park, write to this mail. I'll be the happiest person on the planet and I'll do my best to justify your trust.

Lillian Luthor."

Lena didn't understand why Lillian wanted to reappear in her life. They had stopped communicating when the brunette turned eighteen.

Lena didn't trust her words, couldn't believe them. Lillian was a rigid woman, cold and aloof, she was not capable of maternal love, warmth and care. It was impossible. She left the post office, turned off her computer and went home as the work day came to an end. She needed to get her head in order, who could help do that better if not her best friend.

**********

- Sam, thanks for coming over. - The brunette opened the door and let her friend into the apartment.

- You sounded so excited on the phone. - Sam walked into the living room and placed the bottle of red wine she had brought on the coffee table. - What's wrong?

- Today could have been the best day ever, but my mother showed up. - Lena brought a bottle of whiskey and two glasses from the kitchen. - So wine won't be enough here.

- Lillian? What does she want? - Sam asked, taking the glass of amber liquid that was handed to her.

- She wrote me a letter in the mail. She says that she wants me back in her life, wants to give me motherly love and repents for everything she did before. - The brunette told and took a sip of whiskey.

- Why would she do that? - Sam wondered. - Do you believe her?

- I don't know. I'd like to believe her, but it's so unlike her. She said to write if I agreed to try to let her into my life. - Lena finished the scalding liquid and set the glass on the table.

- Did you write? - The brown-haired girl asked.

- No. I don't know whether to write or not. If I try to confide in her, she might hurt me again. But on the other hand, I'd look at Lillian's caring side if she's not lying. - Lena reasoned.

- I think you should meet her. Once you're face to face with her, you'll know for sure if it's true or not. If she's not, she has other motives, which you can find out when you meet her. And if she's telling the truth, you'll have a mother. - Sam's advice.

- Maybe you're right. - Lena pulled out her cell phone and logged into her email account. Texting her mother, “Tomorrow at twelve, Fifth Street Cafe,” she put the phone away and took a deep breath.

- Now for the good news. You were talking about a better day... Before Lillian showed up. - Sam reminded, trying to improve her friend's mood.

- Yeah... - Lena smiled. - Kara and I are going on a date tomorrow.

- Finally! - Sam exclaimed. - I'm tired of seeing that look on your face.

- What look? - Lena frowned.

- It's like you dropped an ice cream cone. A very sad face. And the eyes you were looking at her with? I'm not even talking about the fact that you took my advice and started unbuttoning your blouses. Nice cleavage, by the way. - Sam complimented. - And then there's your lip-biting trick. Red lipstick…

- Okay, I get it. - Lena stopped her. - How do you even know all this stuff?

- Don't forget, I'm dating Alex. She's attentive. - Sam explained. - She's also Kara's sister, they're very close, they share a lot with each other.

- Did they talk about me? - Lena asked excitedly.

- Yes, of course they did. And by the way, all your seduction techniques were spot on. - smirked Sam.

- I hadn't noticed... - Lena thought for a moment, trying to remember a time when Kara had lingered on her cleavage or tight skirt.

- No wonder you're only going on a date now. You're both just two idiots in love. You could have been dating a long time ago. - rolled her eyes at her friend.

- Will you help me pick out a dress? - Lena asked, looking sad. - Please.

- Okay, I will. On one condition. - Sam smirked. - You tell me all the dirty details.

- Deal. - Lena smiled and dragged her friend off to find her an outfit for tomorrow's date.

**********

The next day was Lena's day off. She arrived at the cafe 15 minutes before the time and was surprised to see Lillian already sitting at the table.

- Mom, hello. - The brunette said hello and sat down opposite.

- Lena, hi. I'm very happy to see you. - Lillian said with a soft smile.

- Why? - Lena asked seriously. - Why did you want me back?

- I realized that you are an important person in my life. No matter how fake it sounds, but I love you... - said Lillian sadly.

- When you love, you don't do everything you did, mom. - Lena grinned, trying to hide the sadness in her eyes.

- I'm sorry... I really am. I started seeing a counselor. We talked a lot about you, about how I behaved with you. I realized I'd been unfair to you. - Lillian told.

- I was a little, lost girl. All I needed was a family. I dreamed of having my mother back to me, of just being loved... - Lena said holding back tears. - And now you appear in my life again and I don't know what to expect from it.

Their conversation was interrupted by a waiter who came to take their order.

- Coffee, please. - Lena asked.

- I'll have one too. - said Lillian. - Lena, would you like dessert? They say there's really good strudel here.

- Are you offering me a sweet strudel? That's a lot of sugar, what about my figure? - Lena raised an eyebrow.

- You have a wonderful figure. - Lillian complimented her sincerely.

Lena couldn't believe what she was hearing. Lillian had never complimented her before, only reprimanded her, complaining about what a bad daughter she was and always being dissatisfied with her actions.

- Okay, strudel, please. - The brunette asked the waiter.

Lena is an adult and she doesn't need her mother's permission, but surprisingly, after these words, her inner voice stopped yelling at her that she shouldn't eat such things.

The waiter left, allowing them to continue their conversation.

- I know you work for the police. Chief of Department. You're very good at doing things on your own. - Lillian praised you.

- Yes, I've worked hard for it. - Lena said.

- I've missed so much... - sighed Lillian. - You probably have a family of your own by now. Husband, children...

They were interrupted again by the waiter who brought them coffee and dessert for the brunette. After waiting for him to leave, the conversation continued.

- I don't have a husband or children. I'm a lesbian, mom. - Lena looked at her mother carefully and studied her reaction.

- I didn't know... Do you have a girlfriend? - There wasn't an ounce of judgment on Lillian's face, she wasn't upset or disappointed.

- No, not yet. - Lena didn't know what phase she and Kara were in, they weren't a couple yet, the brunette couldn't consider her her girlfriend, not yet. - How are you doing? Where do you work, what do you do?

- Right now, I don't work anywhere. You know I own some shares in L-Corp, it helps not to need money. - Lillian said. - It was very smart of you to put Samantha Arias as CEO. She's a great employee and she's doing a great job.

- Sam, my friend. She helped me a lot in college and then after that. There's no one else I'd trust to run the company but her. - said the brunette.

- I'm very glad you have friends like that. - The woman smiled.

After a few more minutes of casual conversation the brunette relaxed, she didn't see any hidden agenda in her mother, but one question made her tense up:

- I saw the news... About Lex. - Lillian began and Lena thought she was about to beg for her son. - He's up to his old tricks again. He's hurting and hurting people, committing crimes. You did good, you did the right thing. Whether he's your brother or not, he's become a monster.

- Aren't you upset that I want to put him in jail? - Lena wondered more and more, her mother's demeanor was really different, kinder, calmer, not like what she remembered so well.

- He must answer for what he did. - Lillian frowned. - You're doing the right thing.

- You know, at first I didn't really believe what you wrote to me. - Lena looked at her mother's face, there was no deception visible there. - I really want you in my life, but not as the Lillian I once knew, but as this Lillian who sits in front of me now.

- Will you see me again? I'd really like to spend more time with you. - Lillian asked with hope in her eyes.

- I still can't trust you completely. It's hard, so immediately... But I'll give you a chance. - Lena took a deep breath. - But if it's still a lie, you'll regret it...

- I know it's hard to believe. But I promise I won't let you down. Your trust means a lot to me. - Lillian covered the brunette's palm on the table with her hand.

- I have to go... - Lena looked at their joined hands, it didn't make her feel disgusted with her mother or anything negative, all she felt was hope.

They said goodbye and promised to meet up soon. Lena left the cafe, she had to get ready for her date with the blonde.

Chapter Text

The date was only a couple hours away. The blonde walked around the apartment in just her boxers and bra, trying to find the best outfit. She hadn't been this nervous since college, she wanted to make a good impression on the brunette. Kara tried on many different shirts, different colors, cuts and designs. She picked out several options, but couldn't decide on one. Desperate, the blonde pulled out her cell phone and made a video call to her sister.

- Alex, something terrible has happened! - instead of greeting, Kara exclaimed.

- What is it? Are you okay? - The older Danvers was terrified.

- No, I'm not okay, I'm not okay at all!

- Kara, calm down, what's wrong? Let me come over, where are you? - Alex didn't know what to think, her sister was clearly panicking.

- I don't know what to wear. - explained the blonde.

- Are you kidding me?! - Alex got angry. - You scared me!

- Help me pick one out. - Kara flipped the camera over and showed the shirts lying on the bed.

Alex took a deep breath, feeling relieved. At first, she thought about yelling at her sister, you can't scare people like that, but then she decided she was already worked up enough and started to just help.

- Blue. It matches the color of your eyes. - Alex answered without thinking.

- Wait a minute. - The blonde put the phone down and quickly dressed in blue ripped jeans and a blue shirt, rolling up the sleeves, revealing strong forearms. - How do I look?

- Great, Lena's gonna love it. - Alex appraised her sister. - Where are you going?

- A new restaurant opened, and they say it's delicious. - Kara put on her footwear, grabbed her car keys and headed out. - Alex, I gotta go. I'll talk to you later.

- Will you tell me how it went? - Alex asked.

- I will. - The blonde came out of the entrance and got into the car. - Okay, wish me luck.

- Good luck. - The sisters said goodbye and Kara followed the brunette.

**********

Lena did not worry about the choice of clothes, her friend had already helped her yesterday, she knew exactly how she would look.

Half an hour before the blonde arrived, she started getting ready to go out. Putting on a green tight-fitting dress, she started on her makeup. The main detail was a bright red lipstick, which she was sure would attract attention. Also, Lena chose high-heeled shoes that elevated the brunette, making her height at detective level. She finished getting dressed just when she heard the doorbell ring, causing her to feel some excitement and a pleasant flutter in her chest.

- Hello. - Lena opened the front door and saw the blonde. - You look great.

- Hi. So do you. - Kara looked at the girl standing across from her with admiration in her eyes. - Shall we?

The girls walked out of the house. Kara opened the car door, letting the brunette in.

- You're acting like a gentleman. - Lena grinned.

- I'm just courting you. - Kara slammed the door shut, got into the driver's seat and started driving. - How was your day?

- Not bad. - Lena said. - I met my mother.

- Lillian? - The blonde shifted her gaze from the road to the beautiful girl beside her in surprise.

- Yes, she wants to come back into my life. I don't know where it will lead, but so far she's behaving well. - The brunette shared the events of the day. - How was your day?

- Same old. It's great that the boss gave me the day off. - Kara grinned. - I could finally sleep and rest.

- Yes, you have a good boss. - Lena smiled.

- Do you know her? - Kara pretended to be surprised.

- We've seen each other a couple of times. By the way, how do you like her?

- She's great. We didn't get along so well at first, but then she stopped being so grumpy. - the blonde got a slap on the thigh for saying that.

- I'm not grumpy! - Lena was indignant. - I'm just demanding.

- I know... - Kara looked at the brunette with a smile. - You are very demanding, hardworking, brave and a good boss.

- Is that all? - Lena asked quietly.

- No. - Kara shifted her gaze to the road in embarrassment, it was unusual for her to be so worried, embarrassed and blushing, the brunette was doing all these things to her that no one had been able to do before. - You're also very pretty.

- Thank you... - the brunette smiled. - But you're exaggerating.

- I really think so. Just look at you, you're gorgeous. - Kara wouldn't stop complimenting her.

Lena had never received so many compliments before, so much attention, it was very nice. Kara said it like she really meant it. With every passing minute, the brunette felt more and more attracted to this girl.

Soon, the girls arrived at the right address. The restaurant looked beautiful, decorated in warm colors, quiet classical music was playing, and, importantly, there were not many people.

Going to the receptionist, the blonde gave her last name and they were taken to the previously reserved table by the window.

- I like it here. - The brunette looked around the room.

- Yeah, it's not a bad place. - Kara agreed.

The waiter brought the menu and left the girls to choose their dishes. The blonde ordered a medium rare steak, and the brunette decided on lasagna.

- Finally you chose something other than salad. - Kara said with a smile as the waiter left.

- I don't just eat salad. Just often, but not always. - Lena explained.

The girls talked on casual topics, there were a lot of harmless jokes and various life stories. After a while, the waiter brought their orders. Having eaten, the blonde got up from the table and extended her hand to the boss.

- Shall we dance? - Kara suggested.

- But no one dances here. - Looking around the room, Lena noticed.

- So what? Or do you care about the opinion of others? - asked the blonde.

- No. - Lena took the detective's hand and got up from the table.

The girls did not go far from the table. The blonde came close to the boss and put her hands on her waist, Lena put her hands on the girl's shoulders. They swayed slowly to classical music, looking at each other.

- I like your eyes so much. - whispered the blonde.

- Are you trying to seduce me? So many compliments... - suggested the brunette.

- Am I good at this? - Kara smiled, stroking the girl's waist.

- Maybe... - Lena answered uncertainly.

- Shall we go for a walk? There's an embankment nearby. - Kara suggested, when the music stopped.

- Let's go. - Lena agreed.

The blonde paid the bill and the girls left the place. The restaurant was near the waterfront, so they didn't have to walk there for a long time. There were many bright stars in the sky, and from the water was heard a pleasant sound of crashing waves, the atmosphere set the mood for romance. Kara took the girl's hand, feeling the warmth and tenderness of her skin.

- You know, I was serious when I said that I really like you. - Kara began excitedly, stroking the back of her palm with her thumb. - I really want a serious relationship.

- In that respect, I'm inexperienced. I haven't had any relationships, even the shortest ones. So, I don't know what it should look like. - explains Lena.

- Let's start small. I can't talk nice, but I want to solve everything at once. - the blonde is getting visibly agitated. - Will you be my girlfriend?

- Yes. - Lena smiled sweetly, making dimples appear on her cheeks. - A week ago, I would have thought it was some kind of stupid prank.

- Me, too. - Kara giggled. - Alex was right; if it weren't for my insecurities, we could have been dating a long time ago.

- Sam told me the same thing. - Lena grinned.

- The two of them were absolutely right. Weren't they? - Kara looked at her watch and realized it was getting late and she needed to walk slowly toward the car.

- Yes, but they don't need to know that.

Soon, the girls got into the car and the blonde drove them toward Lena's house. When they arrived, Kara opened the door and gave her a hand, helping her out.

- I should walk you to the door. We remember what happened last time you refused. - The blonde's tone didn't require discussion, and she took her girlfriend's hand and led her into the entryway.

- Thanks for tonight, I really enjoyed it. - The brunette put the key in the door lock and opened the apartment.

- I enjoyed it too. Will you go on a second date with me? - Kara got excited.

- I've already agreed to be your girlfriend, do you really think I'm going to turn you down? - Lena raised an eyebrow.

- In case you changed your mind... - the blonde replied. - So you'll go?

- Danvers, I didn't think you could be so indecisive. Of course I'll go. - The brunette smiled.

- Can I kiss you? - Kara asked quietly.

- Yes... - the brunette whispered back and almost immediately felt the detective's lips on hers.

The kiss began slowly, at first a light touch of lips, almost imperceptible, so tender and loving. Then, the girls began to act more confidently, the brunette stroked the detective's chin with her palm and feeling her tongue on his lower lip, opened her mouth.

Lena moaned softly as their tongues made contact and began to caress each other. Kara interrupted the kiss, only to move her lips to the girl's beautiful pale neck.

The brunette closed her eyes at the delightful sensation, Kara was very good at what she was doing now. Returning to her lips, the blonde began kissing her with renewed vigor and insistence. Lena felt the heat in her lower abdomen.

- Kara... - The brunette began, but was interrupted by a kiss on her collarbone and a light sucking of the skin there.

- You're so beautiful. - Kara murmured between kisses.

Realizing where this could lead, the brunette gathered all her will in her fist and reluctantly pushed her girlfriend away.

- Kara... I'm not ready yet. - Lena explained embarrassedly. - I'm sorry if you were expecting more...

- No, no. - Kara quickly stopped her. - You don't need to apologize. I just got carried away. I'm the one who should be apologizing to you.

- It's okay, I enjoyed it. - she reassured the girl. - Let's just... Not tonight.

- Sure, whatever you're comfortable with. - The brunette did not expect such patience and understanding from the detective, she thought that she would be upset and would try to persuade her somehow, Lena was pleasantly surprised.

- Good night. - smiled and wished the brunette.

- Sweet dreams. - Kara gave the girl one last quick kiss before walking off to her car.

**********

Throughout the next week, the girls were in high spirits. The fact that there had been no news of Lex spoiled the whole picture, of course, but they were sure that they would find him soon.

Lena sat in her office doing paperwork. She was going through old reports and signing various documents.

When she heard her office door open, she immediately realized who had walked in. The blonde never knocked; in the last week, they had often shared their free time in this office. The brunette tore herself away from the papers and stood up from her seat.

- I brought you some coffee. - Kara set the paper cup on her desk. - And kisses.

- I don't know which is better. - Lena said, pretending to think about it.

The blonde frowned and pouted her lip. From this sight, Lena couldn't resist and kissed her girlfriend gently. Kara wrapped her arms around her waist, melting into her sensual lips. Lena opened her mouth when she felt the detective's tongue on her lip, deepening the kiss.

The girls would have stood like that for an unknown amount of time, but they were interrupted by the door opening abruptly, causing them to pull their lips away from each other fearfully.

- I'm sorry, Lena. - It was Lillian, who lowered her eyes guiltily to the floor. - It's an emergency.

- What's wrong? - The brunette frowned.

- There was news from Lex. - Lillian continued to stare at the floor, she didn't want to disturb her daughter, but she just couldn't expect to catch her at a moment like this.

- Come in, have a seat. - Lena sat down in her chair and pointed with her hand to the conference chair. - Kara, you stay too.

- I'm sorry for barging in like that. - Lillian said with embarrassment.

- That's okay, you should knock next time. - said Lena with a smile.

- Detective Kara Danvers. - The blonde reached across the table.

- Lillian Luthor. - The woman shook her outstretched hand.

- Mom, Kara's my girlfriend. - Lena said.

- It's very nice to meet you. - Lillian smiled sincerely.

- You said it was urgent. - Lena reminded me.

- Yes. - Lillian's tone changed to serious. - Lex contacted me this morning. I came straight here.

- What does he want? - the brunette asked.

- He wants me to join him. He says that together, we can accomplish a lot. - replied Lillian.

- Lena, this is our chance. - Kara looked at her boss. - We can bait him.

- It could be dangerous. He's not stupid. - Lena frowned, realizing immediately what the blonde was talking about.

- Everything will be under control. - Kara tried to calm the girl's worries.

- This might be our only chance. - Lena thought about it and realized she had to try. - Okay.

- So, Lillian. - the blonde turned to the woman. - You need to say yes.

- What?! - Lillian frowned. - How... Why...

- You need to arrange a meeting, we'll know the place and time. All we have to do is arrest him. - the blonde told the plan.

- Yes, mom, call Lex. - Lena asked. - Right now.

- Okay. - Lillian pulled out her cell phone and called her son.

When she heard Lex's voice, she put it on speaker.

- Are you finally coming to your senses? I always knew you were a smart woman. - Lex's voice came through.

- Yeah, I agree. You're right, we can do better together. - Lillian looked at her daughter, searching her eyes for support.

- I'm always right. Meet me tomorrow, noon, outside the old Luthor mansion. Be alone. And don't be late, in case you've forgotten, I'm a wanted man. - Lex finished and hung up.

- I'll go warn Alex and everyone else. - Kara waited for her boss to nod approvingly and after saying goodbye to Lillian, she left the office.

- Your help means a lot. - Lena said. - Thank you.

- I don't want to miss my last chance with you.

- I can see how hard you're trying. - smiled at the brunette.

- By the way, how long have you and Kara been dating? - Lillian asked.

- A while ago. - Lena smiled, remembering her new girlfriend. - Just a week.

- I've known her for a few minutes, but on first impression, she's nice. - Lillian smiled.

- If you want, I can introduce you two closer. - Lena offered. - After we catch Lex, we can celebrate together.

- I'd love to.

Soon, Lillian said goodbye and left her daughter's office. Lena finished with her paperwork and went to find a detective to go over the details of their plan to catch Lex.

Chapter Text

After Lillian had left, the brunette and her girlfriend had thought out the plan for the detention in great detail. They would be there an hour before Lex's scheduled time tomorrow. There would be a car with a special detention team nearby, and Lillian would be wearing a microphone for better control of the situation. They had studied all the escape routes for Lex and had figured out how to block the roads so he couldn't escape. By the end of the day, all the nuances had been taken care of, the people involved in the operation alerted and familiarized with their tasks.

It was time to go home, the blonde walked into her boss's office and caught her just as she was packing.

- Do you need a ride home? - Kara offered. - You look tired.

- Yeah. If you want, you can come over to my place and watch a movie. - Lena left the office with the detective and locked it and headed for the exit. - I need a break from all these thoughts, I'm so excited about tomorrow.

- We could stop for wine. It's very relaxing. - The blonde opened the car door for her boss, then got in the driver's seat.

- I have some at home. Sam and I like to relax with alcohol, often have some left over to spare.

Quite quickly the girls arrived at the brunette's house and were already in the apartment. Lena changed clothes and offered the blonde her house pants and her biggest t-shirt. While she was changing, Lena went to the kitchen to get a bottle of red wine and glasses.

Kara showed up a few minutes later and the brunette sent her into the living room, turning on a movie on the TV.

- What genre? - Kara asked when Luthor returned with the bottle and sat down next to her on the couch.

- Not horror. I have enough of them at work. - Lena poured the wine and offered a glass to the blonde.

- Melodrama or comedy? - Kara asked.

- Comedy. - Lena chose.

The blonde turned on a comedy with a good rating, sat more comfortably on the couch, pressed closer and hugged her girlfriend with one arm.

Lena relaxed in the warmth of the detective's body, she rested her head on her shoulder, feeling comfortable and safe in her embrace.

The movie wasn't as engrossing to her as the girl sitting next to her. Kara periodically kissed her cheek, her neck, stroked her hair and cheeks. Who knew Danvers was such a tactile person.

- You know, at first I thought you were very prickly. - after another kiss on the shoulder, Lena said.

- First impressions can be deceiving. I can be affectionate with the people I care about.

- I like that side of you. - Lena smiled and took the blonde's hand and intertwined their fingers.

The girls continued watching the movie, enjoying each other's presence. When it was over, Lena began to yawn, the wine relaxed her more than she thought it would. The blonde noticed it, turned off the TV and took the empty glasses to the kitchen.

- Tomorrow's a busy day, it's time for you to go to bed. - Kara looked at the girl with a smile as she once again yawned sweetly.

- You can stay at my place. It's getting late. - Lena suggested it.

- Are you sure? I don't want to embarrass you.

- Danvers, you're just spending the night. - Lena raised an eyebrow at the detective.

- Okay. You go in the bedroom, I'll lie down on the couch. - The blonde held out her hand to the girl, offering to help her up.

- I have a big bed, you can lie down with me. - The brunette didn't want the blonde's back to hurt from the hard surface of the couch.

- On one condition, then. - Kara began earnestly. - You won't molest me at night.

Lena grinned and led the blonde into the bedroom.

Leaving the girl in the room, she quickly went to the bathroom, after which she sent the detective there. She changed into her favorite pajamas and got into bed, waiting for the girl.

A few minutes later Kara returned, she took off the homemade pants that Lena had given her and remaining only in a t-shirt and boxers, got under the covers. The blonde tried to keep a distance between them, she didn't know how to behave in bed with someone she hadn't had sex with.

- What if it goes wrong tomorrow? - Lena asked worriedly into the darkness. - What if he could get away?

- Everything would be fine. - Kara reached across the bed to the brunette. - I'm sure we'll make it.

- And if we don't? - Lena turned to face the detective and linked their hands together.

- Then we'll catch him another time. Sooner or later, he'll be where he belongs, in prison. - Kara tried to reassure her.

- Your voice makes me feel confident. - Lena closed her eyes, listening to the girl. - Keep talking.

- After Lex is arrested, we can go somewhere to relax. Just you and me. No cases, no investigations, no crimes. - Kara noticed how the brunette's breathing began to slow, signaling that she was approaching sleep.

- I like that idea. - Lena yawned widely and relaxed completely, feeling sleep pulling her in.

- Good night. - Kara kissed the back of her palm and closed her eyes as well, then quickly fell asleep.

**********

In the morning, the brunette woke up to the loud sound of the alarm clock on her phone. She turned it off and only then realized that Kara was practically piling her whole body on top of her, throwing a leg over her and wrapping her arm around her waist. It felt good to be in the warmth of that embrace, but she couldn't afford to savor the moment for too long, they had to get to work.

- Kara. - Lena whispered and stroked the detective's cheek. - We should get up now.

- Mmm... - the blonde muttered something inaudible and continued to sleep.

- We're going to be late, we have to get up. - Lena crawled out of the embrace and got out of bed.

- But I don't want to. - Kara turned away from the brunette and covered her head with the blanket.

- Your boss doesn't like tardiness. - Lena pulled the blanket off the detective. - Get up.

- Leenaaaa... - Kara just curled up, ignoring the lack of a blanket. - My boss can't let me be a few minutes late?

- You have a little time while I'm in the shower. - The brunette warned and left for the bathroom.

Back in the bedroom, Lena saw the blonde sniffling sweetly and started to wake her up again.

- Kara! - Luthor shook her lightly by the shoulder.

- She's not here. - Kara grumbled.

- Then who's talking?

- You're hearing things. No one's talking. - The blonde pulled the blanket over herself and snuggled in warmly.

- You leave me no choice. - Lena knew that the detective had a secret weak spot, she sat on the edge of the bed and started tickling the girl, causing a loud squeal.

- Lena! The blonde jumped up from the bed. - It's not fair.

- It's not fair when you take advantage of the fact that I'm your boss and don't get up on time. - The brunette stood up and grinned and looked at the detective. - You squeal like a little girl who sees a spider.

- Me? A little girl? - The blonde raised her eyebrows. - Get over here!

Kara ran up to her boss and started tickling her, making her squirm and laugh loudly. She plopped the brunette on the bed and pinned her between her thighs and continued her revenge.

- Kara, I got it! - Lena shrieked once again. - I won't do that again.

- Who's squealing like a little girl now? - Kara stopped and leaned forward for a sweet kiss.

The blonde felt like a teenager in love, she wanted to do silly things and just kiss. Lena made her previously forgotten feeling of butterflies in her stomach wake up.

Breaking the kiss, the brunette gently pushed the girl away.

- Get in the shower. I don't want to be late. - Lena said sternly, her gaze lowered to the blonde sitting on her in a t-shirt and boxers that did little to hide the shape and size of her cock, her cheeks flushed. - And hurry up.

Kara sighed disappointedly, got off her boss and wandered into the bathroom. Luthor stared after the departing detective, the sight of taut buttocks in boxers and strong legs making her feel the urge to feel those muscles closer and touch them. The heat in her lower abdomen was flaring up, she couldn't control herself around the blonde.

**********

Lena ended up being late for the first time in her life. True, the morning briefing hadn't started yet, but she was running out of time. At the entrance to the department, the brunette stopped and turned to the detective.

- We can't come in together. Everyone might figure it out. Come back in a few minutes.

- Are you embarrassed of me? - Kara frowned.

- Of course I'm not. I'm just worried, I'm your boss, you're my subordinate. People might get the wrong idea. - The brunette explained.

- Okay. - The blonde took a deep breath. - Go ahead, I'll come back in a few minutes.

- Are we good? - Lena took the girl's hand and looked into her eyes.

- Yes, I understand. - Kara smiled sadly and stroked the back of the brunette's palm with her thumb soothingly.

Lena reluctantly pulled away and walked into the department. She picked up the morning briefings and walked into the briefing room where the staff was already gathered.

- Good morning, everyone. - Lena started doing her morning briefing and after a few minutes heard a knock on the door.

- May I? - It was Kara.

- Danvers, do you like writing explanatory notes so much? - Lena said sternly. - Tardiness, it's unacceptable. You need to rethink your attitude to work, perhaps change departments or even quit. If this continues, I will discuss with the management whether we need such an employee or not. Have a seat and come to my office after the briefing.

The blonde took the nearest available seat next to Jess.

- The witch is in a bad mood today. - Jess whispered. - How do you even put up with her?

- Don't call her that. - Kara frowned. - Maybe she's just having a bad morning.

- She does act like a real bitch. Such a bitch... - Before Jess could finish, she was interrupted by the blonde.

- Stop calling her that! - Kara said loudly, making all the employees pay attention to her, and moved to the other end of the office.

She was angry, how could Jess insult her girlfriend, she didn't even know her after all. Lena wasn't a bitch, she was the most wonderful person the blonde knew. She liked everything about the brunette, she wouldn't let anyone insult her.

After the briefing, as her boss had instructed, Kara entered her office.

- I'm sorry, I shouldn't have jumped on you like that. - Lena started right away.

- Don't apologize, it was business. I really need to stop being late. - Kara sat down at the conference table across from the brunette.

- Did you have a fight with Jess? - Lena remembered how angry the blonde had been with the girl.

- It wasn't a big deal. - Kara brushed it off. - She just talks first and thinks later. Let's talk about today's surgery.

- Sure. - The brunette decided to leave the questioning to focus on the important business of catching Lex. - In two hours, we and the extraction team will be on the ground. Everyone knows their assignments, so it should go smoothly.

- Great. So we have two hours to spare? - The blonde had a sly grin on her face.

- I still have a lot of other things to do, I have to make reports, work on statistics, sign reports and send instructions to units. - Lena began to list.

- Is it urgent? - Kara got up from her seat and approached her boss. - I know a great way to start the day.

- What is it? - The brunette wondered.

Kara leaned over and kissed her gently on the lips. - Do you like my way?

- Very much. - Lena smiled and pulled the girl in for another kiss.

It wasn't as tender as the last one, more filled with passion and desire, the brunette put all of her feelings into it and felt the same payoff from the detective.

- I really have work to do. - Lena pulled away and pointed with her hand at the pile of papers lying on the desk.

- Just a couple more minutes. - Kara pouted her lips and gave her a puppy dog look, hoping it would help.

- A couple minutes, no more. - The brunette couldn't resist the blonde and they continued their kissing session.

After half an hour, Lena managed to get the detective out of the office and began to quickly finish the paperwork.

**********

Half an hour before noon, all the employees were in place and the escape routes were blocked.

Kara and Lena sat in an inconspicuous car, not far from the Luthor mansion, where they had a great view of the surrounding area.

Lillian arrived ten minutes before Lex. She stood near the entrance to the house lot and waited for her son.

When he appeared, the girls began listening to their conversation through the equipment attached to the woman. Everything was going as planned. He did not suspect anything and was about to invite his mother to get into his car, when Lena commanded over the radio: - Start!

Armed men quickly ran out of the van, not far from Lex, and Lex had no choice but to raise his hands and surrender.

- That was easier than I thought. - The brunette breathed out a sigh of relief as her brother was handcuffed in the car.

- Lex was overconfident. That's what ruined him.

The girls got out of the car and headed toward Lillian. She looked sad, but it was obvious she was relieved.

- Is everything all right? - Lena asked her mother worriedly.

- Yes. It's just... He's my son, I didn't think he would turn out to be such a man... I'm to blame for a lot of things, I brought him up. - Lillian berated herself for Lex's actions.

- It isn't. - Kara started. - You raised Lena too, she didn't make a criminal.

- Yeah, mom, it's not your fault Lex is like this. - The brunette reassured her.

- I'm very proud of who you've become, Lena. - Lillian said sincerely.

The brunette smiled softly and looked into her mother's eyes, she saw kindness and warmth in them, that's what she dreamed of seeing in them all her childhood and youth. - It means a lot to me.

- You have grown up to be a wonderful person. - Lillian smiled at her daughter.

- Kara, my mom asked me to give you two a full introduction. Would you like to come to the café with us tonight after work? - Lena suggested it.

- Uh, sure. - The blonde wasn't nervous about it, she was sure she could make a good impression on her girlfriend's mother.

After sending Lillian home, the girls got in the car and drove to the department. They had to finish some documents on Lex and take the case to the prosecutor's office for further referral to the court. Only bureaucratic details remained, and soon Lex would be behind bars.

Chapter Text

When the brunette had sorted out all the paperwork, it was a couple hours before the end of the workday. Earlier, they had agreed with Lillian and Kara to meet at the café. She wasn't nervous at first, but the faster the moment approached, the more she felt anxious.

She worried how her mother would react to Kara, how they would communicate, whether she would like her. She hadn't noticed how much she'd started to care about Lillian's opinion lately. They had grown closer, occasional phone conversations, face-to-face meetings, Lillian was always so sincere and understanding. Lena never thought her mom could be so supportive and interested in her life, calling only because she wanted to know if she was okay, how she was doing, or her mood, not to tell her what a bad daughter Lena was.

Kara on the other hand, what would she think of her mother, would there be tension between them. She had told her girlfriend how Lillian had treated her as a child, especially after Lionel's death, all those cold stares, the detached conversations, she had shown with her whole demeanor that she was not welcome in this family and would be treated like an intruder. Kara sympathized with her a lot, she understood what it meant to be in a foster home, but only the blonde was lucky to have loving parents, and Lena stayed with the Luthors. Lillian treated her like she was nothing.

- What are you thinking? - Absorbed in her own thoughts, Lena didn't notice the blonde entering quietly and jumped in surprise.

- You scared me. - Lena looked up at her girlfriend.

Kara leaned over to her boss and kissed her sweetly on the lips before pulling away and pushing the documents away and sitting down on her desk.

- Are you worried about something?

- Lillian... - Lena took a deep breath. - I don't know... She came back into my life so abruptly and I've already started to trust her. Now, I'm really worried about how you two will get along.

- I can promise that if she treats you well, we'll be friends. - Kara assured her.

- You promise you'll be friends? - Lena raised an eyebrow. - Isn't that a little cocky?

- I'm adorable. - The blonde smiled. - There is no woman who can resist my charm. Not even you.

- Don't exaggerate your abilities. - Lena grinned. - And anyway, it was you who couldn't resist me.

- I will not argue. - The blonde jumped down from the table and extended her hand to her boss. - We should get going if we don't want to be late.

The brunette gathered her things and together with her girlfriend, they left the department and drove to the cafe.

- Alex suggested a double date. Her and Sam, you and me, tonight at my house, after our meeting with Lillian. - Without taking her eyes off the road, Kara said. - What do you say?

- That's a great idea. I haven't been able to talk to Sam much lately. With Alex in general, we only see each other at work and talk about business topics. - Lena missed their meetings with her friend, when the brunette was transferred to a new place, she didn't have much free time. - The bosses gave us an extra day off, they say we've done a good job and deserve a vacation. So we can sit longer and spend time together tomorrow.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the cafe and got out of the car. The blonde took the girl's hand and led her to the entrance. Inside, they spotted Lillian, who was already waiting for them at a table by the window.

- Hi, mom. - Lena said hello and sat down across from the woman.

- Hello. - The blonde smiled and settled down next to her girlfriend.

- It's really good to see you girls. - Lillian smiled warmly and soon a waiter came up to them and took their orders.

Lena never thought her mom could be so supportive and interested in X her life, calling only because she wanted to know if she was okay, how she was doing, or her mood, not to tell her what a bad daughter Lena was.

- Kara, Lena tells me that you two have only recently started dating. - Lillian began. - I just want to get to know you better.

- Sure, ask questions, I'll be happy to answer them. - Kara smiled at the woman and the waiter who brought the orders.

- Tell me about yourself. How old are you, where did you go to school, what's your family like?

- I'm 26 years old. I graduated from law school, then I joined the police force. - blonde started talking. - I'm a foster child with a wonderful mother and sister.

- Mom, it's like an interrogation. - Lena remarked.

- I'm sorry, I just want to know who's going to take care of you.

- That's right, a mother needs to make sure her daughter is in good hands. - Kara smiled and intertwined her fingers with her girlfriend's under the table.

The conversation was going smoothly, the blonde told a lot about herself and learned interesting stories about Lena. The brunette retreated to the bathroom, leaving her girlfriend and her mother alone.

- Are you serious about my daughter? - Lillian asked and looked seriously into the blonde's eyes.

- I'll be honest, I haven't been this serious about anyone yet. We've only just started, so I can't be a hundred percent sure it will work, maybe we're not right for each other at all. I'll try to show her every day how special she is, she's very special to me. - The blonde looked into Lillian's eyes, she didn't want to deceive and say that everything will be perfect, after all, a relationship is a complicated path, with its ups and downs.

- Lena looks strong, but she's actually very vulnerable. I know how it sounds coming from me, I've acted wrong to her many times, but I really want the best for her.

- I would never do anything to hurt her. - Kara assured me. - I promise to keep her safe, you have nothing to worry about.

- I can see that you are a good person, Lena is lucky. - Lillian smiled.

A few minutes later Lena came back, they sat and talked for a while, the time flew by quickly and after saying goodbye, they left to get ready for the double date.

**********

The girls ordered delivery, pizza, burgers, potstickers, and laid everything out on the coffee table in the living room.

When they heard the doorbell ring, they ran to open it. Smiling Sam and Alex stood on the doorstep, holding a couple of bottles of wine.

- Hi! - Sam hugged Lena warmly. - It's been a long time, you don't want to part with your work for a minute at all.

- We are very happy to see you. - Lena smiled.

- I thought I was going to forget what you looked like. - Alex pulled her sister into a bear hug.

- We see each other every day! - exclaimed Kara.

They settled down in the living room in front of the TV, turned on some TV program in the background and poured wine.

- Alex found a game on the Internet. - Sam began. - The rules are simple. She states a fact, if you disagree with it, you have to drink.

- It's okay to cheat? - Kara asked.

- No. Only honest answers. Or do you have something to hide? - Sam raised an eyebrow.

- Okay, honest is honest.

The older Danvers opened the question options on her phone and the game began.

- I've never been naked swimming.

Lena was the only one who took a sip of wine, after which everyone looked at her in surprise.

- What? - Luthor smiled. - Yes, I bathed naked. I was having a rebellious phase.

- It turns out there's a lot about you I don't know. - Kara smirked.

- I didn't know that either. - Sam was surprised.

- You didn't ask, and I didn't tell you. - Lena shrugged and looked at Alex. - Continuing the game.

- I've never slept with a someone 15 years older than me.

Kara and Sam each took a sip of their drinks. Lena raised an eyebrow at the two of them in mute question.

- I met her at a bar, she was pretty experienced. - The blonde explained.

- No interesting story. I just didn't know the age, she looked much younger. - Sam looked at her girlfriend and asked a new question.

- I've never had a threesome.

Kara took a sip of wine. - Twins.

- You've had a threesome with twins? - Alex wondered.

- You'd be surprised how much you don't know about my sex life. - Kara smirked at her sister.

- Ugh... I don't want to know anything related to that. - Alex wrinkled her face and read the next question. - I've never kissed my best friend.

Sam and Lena looked at each other and took a sip of their drinks.

- You've kissed! - The Danvers sisters exclaimed simultaneously.

- At the institute. It was just out of curiosity, nothing more. - Lena explained.

The friends really did it out of curiosity, they were curious whether or not there would be a spark between them. In the end, nothing happened. The kiss was very awkward and they never did it again.

- My mom never saw me jerk off. - Alex smirked and looked at her blushing sister.

- Did you make up the question yourself? - Kara asked.

- No, it says so right here. - she showed the blonde the phone and watched her sister take a sip.

- It was an accident! - Kara exclaimed, looking at the surprised faces. - Eliza saw almost nothing.

The girls looked at each other and giggled.

- Sure, laugh... - muttered Kara. - That was really embarrassing!

- You should have seen her face. - Alex remembered. - And mom's face...

- Your face wasn't any better. - Kara frowned.

- How did that happen? - Sam asked.

- Just someone doesn't lock their doors when they're doing their dirty deeds. - Alex explained.

- The lock was broken. And anyway, you shouldn't barge into a teenager's room without knocking. You never know what I do there. - Kara was red with embarrassment.

- Well, yeah... Like jerking off, - Alex said, still giggling.

After some bantering with the blonde, the girls decided to leave the topic and continue the game.

- I've never watched porn.

Everyone had a drink. The blonde girl discreetly looked at her girlfriend and smirked and looked away.

After a couple hours, lots of jokes and funny stories, Alex and Sam said goodbye and left the blonde's apartment. Lena helped her girlfriend put away the empty food boxes. She didn't want to leave, tomorrow was a well-deserved day off, so she didn't need to go to bed early.

Lena was just washing the wine glasses when she felt gentle arms around her waist.

- Would you like to watch a movie? - The blonde kissed the girl's neck, causing pleasant goosebumps.

- I do. - The brunette turned around to face the detective and kissed her on the lips, taking her into the living room to the TV.

The blonde turned on a movie and hugged her girlfriend and made herself comfortable on the couch. They enjoyed each other's presence, the brunette stroking Kara's arm, drawing chaotic patterns on her forearm.

The movie was going well, there were many touching moments, kisses and hugs, the blonde didn't even think that there could start such a frank scene. But contrary to all her expectations, it started. Moans, hoarse voices, hot breath filled the room, Kara felt her pants start to get hard. She pulled away from her girlfriend, took a pillow and covered her crotch, trying to do it discreetly for the brunette.

Lena felt the girl next to her squirm and turned to look, Kara was blushing and looked awkward, something that rarely happened to the confident detective. Lowering her gaze, she saw the pillow pressed against her lap and immediately realized what was happening to her.

- I'm sorry... I'm... I'm sorry, - Kara began to stammer. - I can just go take a cold shower...

-Wait... Maybe I can help? - The brunette suddenly suggested, even to herself.

- You can help? - Kara's eyes widened in surprise. - I don't want you to feel obligated. It's okay, I can solve this problem on my own.

- I want to help you. - Lena looked confidently into her girlfriend's eyes and removed the pillow from her lap. - Only you need to give me a hint, I might not know something.

- Don't worry, I'll give you a hint. - The blonde promised.

Kara was wearing loose house pants, so nothing hid her arousal. Lena slowly ran her hand down her thigh, from the knee up and touched her cock through the fabric.

- So hard... - the brunette whispered. - Can I take it off?

The blonde lifted herself up, helping the girl pull off her pants and boxers. Freed from her clothes, his cock bounced against her stomach.

Lena stared mesmerized between her legs. She had only seen a cock in porn, but she could already draw some conclusions.

- It big.

- Doesn't that scare you? - Kara was beginning to worry that it might be too much for the brunette.

Lena shook her head negatively and pulled the girl in for a soft kiss. Their tongues entwined in a slow dance, biting her lower lip, the brunette elicited a quiet moan from the detective.

- What should I do? - Lena pulled away from the kiss.

- You could just around him and start slowly pumping your hand up and down. - Kara suggested and pulled off her stirring t-shirt, revealing a great view of those strong muscles.

Lena did as the blonde asked her. She scrutinized the girl's reaction to her every move. Kara closed her eyes, enjoying the pleasant touch of warm hands.

The brunette decided to try to take things even further. She removed her hand, eliciting a disappointed groan from the detective and moved her knees to the floor, between her legs.

Kara watched as her girlfriend leaned down and tentatively kissed the hard cock.

- Wait... Are you sure? - Looking into the brunette's eyes, Kara asked.

- I want to try. - Luthor replied, she didn't think she would really want to do such a thing for the blonde, it was very exciting. - What do you want me to do?

Kara moaned softly at another gentle kiss. - Take it in your mouth.

Lena closed her lips around the head and began to take more and more length. She listened to the husky moans, which made her feel her own arousal gathering moisture in her panties.

She began to bob her head back and forth, trying to take as deep as she could while squeezing and stroking with her hand at the base, causing the detective to feel amazing sensations.

- Mmm... - Kara gathered her disheveled hair into a fist and gazed mesmerized at the gorgeous girl. - You're so good at this.

Lena tried to take more length, but choked on it and started coughing with watery eyes.

- For the first time, it may seem too difficult. - The blonde gently stroked the girl's cheek. - You don't have to do it.

- I know it's very pleasurable for a partner. I want you to enjoy it. - The brunette was determined, she wanted to take the length completely like she had seen in adult movies, but it was difficult, with the blonde's size.

- It already feels good... - Kara didn't want the brunette to think it was a necessity.

- I want to take everything. - Lena said firmly. - How do I do that?

Kara looked into confident and enthusiastic eyes. - Breathe in plenty of air, relax your throat completely, stick your tongue out and go all the way in.

Doing as the blonde said, she fought a gag reflex and a coughing fit, but quickly got used to the new sensations.

- Baby, yeah... - feeling the pleasant squeeze of his cock, Danvers watched the girl giving her a deep blowjob with admiration and couldn't hold back a moan. - This is amazing.

After a few seconds, the air became short, Lena pulled away and while she came to her senses, began to jerk off with her hand.

- Testicles... Mmm... - Kara threw her head back and squeezed her eyes shut. - Take them in your mouth.

Continuing to work her hand over his cock, the brunette sucked first one, caressing it with her tongue, and then the other testicle. They were soft and tender, so they required careful handling.

The blonde felt the sudden familiar sensation of imminent release. She covered the brunette's hand with her own and began to speed up her movements. Lena kissed the straining testicles one last time when she heard loud moans and heavy breathing. Kara looked into the brunette's eyes as she cum on her abs and removed her hand, letting her girlfriend milk the last drops.

Lena stroked her strong thighs as she waited for the detective to catch her breath.

- Did you enjoy it?

- Do you still ask? - The blonde giggled hoarsely. - It was amazing!

Smiling proudly, Lena kissed the head of her softening cock, making it jerk and sat down on the couch, next to the detective.

The blonde pulled the girl in for a passionate kiss and heard a low moan.

- Just so you know, I would love to return the favor. - Kara whispered hotly in the brunette's ear.

- I know... - Lena stroked the girl's cheek. - I'm not ready... Yet... - she didn't understand why she was putting it off, it's not that scary, especially with the attentive Kara, who won't hurt or offend.

- So I'm not pushing. I know that when the time comes you'll tell me. - Kara kissed the girl on the lips and reluctantly pulled away. - Now I definitely need a shower.

Lena bit her lip and smiled at what she had done to the detective. Her cheeks flushed, her breathing hitched, and her belly was stained with white cum.

- I like what I see.

Kara smirked and left for the shower. Lena thought that maybe tomorrow, would be the right day for her first time. She trusted her girlfriend completely.

That night they fell asleep pressed tightly against each other, intertwining limbs and exchanging slow kisses.

Chapter Text

Kara was the first to wake up this time. She opened her eyes and saw her girlfriend snuggled up close to her, her leg thrown over her hip, her hand resting on her chest and her head resting against her neck. Lena looked so relaxed, calm and gentle that the blonde blurred into a happy smile.

She felt comfortable and warm in the brunette's embrace. She was overwhelmed with a multitude of feelings for this girl, tenderness, awe, love... She truly loved her. Only now, lying in the same bed with her, Kara realized that she loved her. For the first time she admitted to herself that she felt those feelings. It amazed her how a simple crush had quickly turned into something more. She had never loved anyone before, except for her sister and parents, but these were completely different feelings. She had experienced different feelings, sympathy, attraction, but love never. She wanted to do everything for her girlfriend, to spend all her free time with her, to take care of her, to hug her, to kiss her, to rejoice in her every achievement and to comfort her in difficult moments. She wanted to make her happy.

Kara looked at the brunette, her heart clenched at the fact that she was so real, here in this bed, that she was hers.

Gently kissing Lena on the nose, she carefully crawled out from under her warm body and got out of bed.

It was early, so Kara decided to give her more time to sleep, and she left the bedroom and headed for the kitchen.

The blonde has never been famous for her cooking skills, but she wanted so much to please her girlfriend with her own handmade pancakes. She opened a video on the Internet, where all the stages of cooking were described in detail.

At first everything went well, the consistency of the batter was suitable and Kara, having heated the frying pan began the most difficult stage of the work. The frying process itself.

The first pancake fell apart when she flipped it, the second one burned, the third one was much better, but when the blonde took it off the skillet into a plate, it managed to fall to the floor.

- Fuck! - Kara cursed quietly, trying not to wake the girl sleeping peacefully in the next room. - Please get ready normally.

She poured in the batter once more and watched carefully to make sure it didn't burn.

- I'm begging you, please do it. - The blonde flipped the pancake. - That's it, all that's left is to keep it from burning and get it on the plate.

Kara focused all her attention on the pancake, it was a matter of principle to make a delicious breakfast for her beloved. At least she hoped it was delicious.

- Honey, are you talking to the food? - approaching, Lena grinned and wiping the flour from the blonde's face, kissed her on the cheek.

- Why are you up? You should be in bed, you're ruining my whole plan. - Kara pouted, causing the brunette to kiss that pouty lip.

- I never sleep so long. - Lena shrugged. - Are you making pancakes?

- Yes, I'll give you the best breakfast of your life. - Kara smiled and looked from the girl to the frying pan. - Holy shit!

Lena grinned at the way the blonde scolded and threw away the burnt pancake.

- Do you need help? - The brunette offered, wanting to ease the detective's suffering.

- No! I can handle it, it's just a pancake. - Frowning, Kara poured the batter back into the pan. - Get out the strawberries, cream and chocolate frosting, you'll be tasting this masterpiece soon.

- When you need help, just ask. - Lena took the groceries out of the fridge and set the coffee to brew.

- I'm the best cook, I don't need help. - Kara replied confidently and flipped the pancake.

The brunette made coffee for herself and hot chocolate for the blonde, sliced strawberries and waited for the promised breakfast. Ten minutes later, she saw the saddest expression on the detective's face she could have ever seen. Pouty lip, frowning eyebrows with a wrinkle between them, Kara sighed heavily as she approached her girlfriend.

- I need help.

- What happened to the best cook? - The brunette raised an eyebrow.

- He's not on site today. In his place, here are these crooked hands. - Kara raised her hands and exhaled with a sad groan. - Would you help me?

- Sure. - Lena smiled and kissed the girl on the lips and walked over to the stove. - Watch carefully and learn...

Kara watched every movement of her hands, memorizing all the subtleties of cooking a seemingly simple dish. She was mesmerized by the girl's long fingers, delicate hands, and such confidence in her actions.

After a few pancakes cooked by the brunette, Kara decided to try it too, but this time under strict control.

- You're good, you're good at it. - praised her Lena.

- I'm being taught by the best teacher. - Kara smiled, her first pancake turned out perfectly and didn't even fall.

The blonde continued cooking without Lena's help and soon, they were sitting at the table and tasting the food.

- I thought it would be worse. - Kara chewed her pancake with a joyful groan and reached for another.

- Yes, it was delicious. - Lena agreed and looked around the kitchen, which looked like it had been through the war. - But you can't cook at all. Was there a hurricane here?

- Don't exaggerate, I just spilled some flour... And dropped a couple eggs... And a couple pancakes. And spilled the batter. - the blonde was looking at the mess she'd made. - Well, it would have been cleaner after the storm.

- I wanted to tell you something... - Lena remembered what she had decided yesterday.

- You can tell me anything. - Kara looked at the worried girl.

- I'm ready... - the brunette began, looking into the detective's eyes. - 'I'm ready for my first time. I trust you.

- Oh... Okay. When and where? - The blonde asked.

- Tonight, at my place. - Lena remembered that she had recently bought a beautiful set of lingerie for the occasion.

- I can take us to your place. - Danvers offered.

- No need. I still have some things to do. - She really needed to get her work done so she could spend the whole evening with the blonde. - Come back later, I'll text you when I'm free.

- Okay, I'll be waiting. - Kara smiled softly.

Soon, Lena left for her home and began to take care of all the urgent matters. Being a boss meant working sometimes on your days off as well.

**********

All the way through the evening, the brunette worried a lot. What if Kara was disappointed in her, what if she didn't like it. The blonde had a lot of experience and could compare with her past partners. Lena didn't have that opportunity.

Having finished all her work stuff, she started to get ready for the detective's arrival. She took a shower, put on some nice lingerie and a tight black dress over it. She texted the blonde about what she was expecting, lit some scented candles and opened a bottle of red wine. She wanted to make a romantic setting, to get in the right mood.

A few minutes later, the doorbell rang. A blonde woman stood on the threshold, holding a small bouquet of plumerias and a teddy bear.

- Hi. - The brunette smiled.

- Hi. - Kara kissed the girl gently on the lips and held out the toy with flowers. - This is for you.

- Thank you. - Lena smelled the bouquet and took the girl by the hand and led her into the living room.

Entering the room, Kara saw on the coffee table lit candles and a bottle of wine.

Lena put the flowers in the water and sat down next to the blonde on the couch so that their knees touched each other.

- I'm nervous... - Lena said quietly, taking a sip of wine.

- Why? I'm not going to hurt you. - Kara took the brunette's hand, soothingly stroking the back of her palm with her thumb.

- I'm not afraid that you'll hurt me somehow. - Lena explained. - I'm afraid you won't like me.

- Lena... - Kara set their glasses on the coffee table and took the girl's other hand. - I already like you, a lot.

- You've been with a lot of girls, you know how to do a lot of things, and you've tried a lot of things. I'm not sure I can impress you. - Lena shared her worries.

- Honey, you don't need to impress me. - the blonde kissed Lena's knuckles. - I'm nervous, too.

- You are? Why? - The brunette was surprised.

- Every person is different. If someone liked something, it doesn't mean that everyone will like it. Everyone needs a different approach. I'm afraid that your expectations of me will be too high and you'll be disappointed.

- But I'm not. How could I be disappointed in you? It's not just sex for me, I'm sharing this moment with you, opening up to you like no one else. You can't disappoint me. - Lena said.

- That's true for me, too. I can't not like you. - Kara stroked the girl's cheek. - I want you to feel good, I want to share this moment with you.

Lena pulled the detective in for a sweet kiss and tasted the wine on her lips. Burying her fingers in her blonde hair, the brunette lightly scratched her scalp and heard a soft moan.

Kara stroked her waist and pulled away from her lips and began kissing her neck, nibbling and sucking gently.

The brunette tilted her head, opening more room for caresses and closed her eyes, enjoying her girlfriend's attention.

- To the bedroom? - Between kisses, Kara murmured.

- Yes. - Lena quickly kissed the detective on the lips and stood up from the couch, took her hand and dragged her behind her.

Once inside the room, the blonde kissed her girlfriend again and without pulling away from her lips, led her closer to the bed.

Lena slowly undressed and stood before the blonde in just her underwear.

- You're so beautiful. - Kara whispered, looking at the beautiful girl.

The brunette bit her lip as she watched the detective remove her clothes, remaining in only her underwear as well. As soon as the blonde finished, Lena nestled against her lips. The kiss was sensual and tender. Lena opened her mouth, letting the girl's tongue inside.

The brunette's hands encircled her strong shoulders, stroking the muscles. The blonde undid the clasp of Lena's bra and discarded the unnecessary piece of clothing. She laid the girl on the bed, positioning herself on top, began kissing her pale neck and slowly descending with kisses lower.

Reaching her breasts, she licked and sucked on a nipple, scrutinizing the brunette's body reactions.

Lena closed her eyes and moaned softly, savoring the moment. She loved how Kara paid attention to every little thing, touching it with her lips and hands as if it were all she cared about in the world.

After giving enough attention to one breast, the blonde moved on to the other. She listened to the pleasurable moans and forgot about everything she had ever cared about. Only the girl she truly loved existed now.

Lena stroked the detective's hair and pressed lightly against her chest, encouraging her to continue. She felt the moisture pooling in her panties and thrust her hips, trying to ease her arousal with the friction.

The blonde pulled back and quickly removed her bra and boxers, revealing a straining cock already oozing prey.

The brunette squeezed the detective's small breasts and running her hands lower to his abs, gently scratched them with her fingernails, causing pleasant goosebumps.

- You're so wet already. - The blonde whispered, looking at the wet spot forming on Lena's panties.

Kara kissed the pale belly and began to move lower. Pulling her panties down her smooth legs, she kissed her thighs, knees and shins, never taking her eyes off the girl's tantalizing center.

The blonde spread her legs wider and lay between them. She kissed the inside of her thigh and looked into the green eyes, gauging her reaction. Her pupils dilated with desire, her breathing hitched, she looked amazing.

Kara licked slowly from vagina to clit, gathering all the moisture, tasting the brunette for the first time. She tasted so delicious, the blonde could do this forever.

Lena moaned loudly, threw her head back and squeezed her eyes shut. She could feel every movement of her girlfriend's skillful tongue as she licked, sucked and kissed. It was sending her inexpressible sensations of pleasure. She quickly felt the pressure building in her lower abdomen and clawed her hands into her blonde hair, pulling the girl as close to her center as possible. Both girls’ hoarse moans and heavy breathing could be heard in the room.

Lena looked up at the blonde and caught her gaze full of adoration. Kara sped up, she could feel the brunette close, she wanted to feel her release on her tongue. She sucked hard on her clit and heard a particularly loud moan. Lena's legs trembled, her breasts heaved heavily, her cheeks flushed and her eyes closed.

Kara let the girl come to her senses and kissed her clit one last time and moved up to level with her face.

- You're beautiful. - Kara whispered. - I could watch you cum forever.

Lena opened her eyes and pulled the blonde by the neck and gave the soft lips a fervent kiss. She felt her own taste and moaned.

- I want you inside. - Lena reached for the painfully hard cock with her hand.

- Wait... - Kara pulled away to get condoms from her jeans pocket and moved back. - We need to use protection.

She ripped open the wrapping with her teeth and smoothly pulled the condom over cock.

- I'll go slowly. - Noticing the brunette's hesitation, Kara wanted to reassure her. - If it hurts, tell me right away, I'll stop. It's okay if you want to stop right now...

- No! - exclaimed Lena. - I want to keep going.

Nodding, the blonde leaned on her arm next to her superior's head. She looked into her eyes and guided her cock to the entrance.

The brunette felt the head jab into her vagina and began to slowly make its way inside. She wrapped her legs around her girlfriend's hips and put her arms around her shoulders. Lena closed her eyes and completely dissolved into the sensation of being filled. She felt a sharp pain, yelped loudly and dug her nails into the strong muscles of her back.

Kara entered halfway in and hearing a painful moan, immediately stopped the movement of her hips.

- Are you in pain? - The blonde was worried, she didn't want to hurt her girlfriend.

- No, I just need some time.

Kara let her get used to the new sensation and stroking her clit with her thumb, slowly continued to enter.

Lena tried to relax completely and the pain went away, leaving behind a slight feeling of discomfort. She moaned as she felt the cock enter fully.

Pausing in this position, Kara kissed the soft lips, cheeks, chin and neck. She sucked on her pulse point, eliciting a loud moan from her girlfriend, and nestled her lips behind her ear.

- Is everything all right? - Kara whispered.

Instead of answering, Lena nodded affirmatively and pulled the blonde by her chin in a tender kiss. She caressed her tongue with her own while simultaneously traveling her hands over the strong muscles of her back.

Getting used to the sensation of being filled, Lena thrust her hips, wanting the long-awaited friction. Kara understood the signal and began to slowly withdraw, leaving only the head inside, and then smoothly enter. She felt a pleasant tightness and heat surrounding her cock. Lena was so beautiful, wriggling and moaning in her ear.

- Aaahh... Kara! - Lena no longer felt any discomfort at all, all that was left was an amazing feeling she hadn't experienced before. - Faster... The blonde sped up her pelvic movements, she could feel Lena's inner walls begin to clench, foreshadowing her imminent release.

Massaging her clit, she heard the girl scream her name as she orgasmed. Kara continued to move slowly, prolonging her pleasure until she felt her own.

- Lena! Mmm... - the blonde jabbed her face into her girlfriend's neck as she cummed into the condom.

Lena stroked her hair and back, pulling back from her own orgasm and enjoying the feeling of being so close. Kara met her lips in a tender, loving kiss and pulled his cock out, making the brunette moan softly.

The blonde pulled away and carefully removed the condom, tied it off and went to throw it away. She grabbed some water for Lena and handed her a glass and climbed into bed. The brunette drained it quickly and set it on the bedside table.

- Thank you. - Lena snuggled up to her girlfriend, sliding her leg over her hip and kissing her neck, resting her head on her chest.

- Did you like it? - Excitedly whispered into Kara's dark hair.

- Yes, you're beautiful, thank you for being so attentive. - Lena kissed the girl on the lips. - Did you like it?

- You're amazing. - The blonde put her arm around the girl's waist, pulling her as close as possible.

- You say that to everyone? - Lena raised an eyebrow, trying to hide the incomprehensible feeling of jealousy in her voice.

- You're the only one. - Kara kissed the brunette on the temple. - I really think so.

The blonde thought it was the right moment to reveal the depth of her feelings, but she didn't dare. She didn't know that Luthor was tormented by the same doubts, that she was also deep in it.

After a long session of tender kisses and hugs, the girls fell asleep.

Chapter Text

A week went by. Every day, the blonde stayed overnight at her girlfriend's house. It wasn't necessarily for sex, they just wanted to be closer to each other, to spend evenings together, in the warmth of an embrace. Lena had gotten a lot of her shirts, t-shirts, and other things at home.

Kara had long ago stopped hitting on different girls. She didn't need to, not when she had Lena. They hid their relationship from colleagues, someone could misunderstand and let bad rumors to the bosses. Lena didn't want any unnecessary trouble for herself and the detective.

Kara entered the department a few minutes after the brunette. She signed in with the duty officer and after getting her keys, headed to her office. Jess met her on the way and walked with her.

- Hi. - Trying to look as friendly as possible, Kara said hello.

- Hi, babe. - Jess bit her lip and smirked.

- Do you have a question for me? - The blonde stopped outside her office and put the key in the lock.

- I had a fight with my boyfriend. - Jess squeezed her forearm muscles through her shirt. - I need to release the tension.

- I can't. - Kara immediately realized what the girl was asking of her, she didn't want anyone but her Lena.

- What is it? I don't turn you on anymore? You know I can be a very good girl - Jess suddenly grabbed her between her legs and sank her lips into hers in a passionate kiss, pressing her against the office door.

If Kara had been a little more attentive, she might have noticed the rapidly receding figure of her boss.

- Jess, no. - the blonde broke free of the girl's grip. - I'm seeing someone, we can't.

- Kara Danvers has someone? - Jess raised her eyebrows in surprise. - Don't worry, she won't find out.

- I'm not cheating! - Kara looked at her sternly. - You and I are not having sex again.

- Who is she? Do I know her? - Jess asked. - I have to applaud that kind of skill at getting you under your heel.

- It doesn't matter who she is. - Kara turned away and finally opened the office door. - And I'm not under her heel. I just don't see the point of a relationship when it's built on lies.

- Since when did you become so proper? You used to be a skirt-chaser. Everyone around here knows your reputation.

- I should get back to work. Do you have any more questions for me? - Danvers wanted to end this conversation and get on with her job.

- No. I'll see you later. - Jess said goodbye and with an exaggerated sway of her hips, walked away.

Kara went into her office and got to work.

**********

Lena planned to just visit her girlfriend, wish her a great day and give her a few kisses. She walked out of her office and headed towards Danvers. As she rounded the corner, there was no way she expected to see what she saw. Kara was kissing another girl whose hands were not at all where other people were allowed.

Lena felt a lump come to her throat, she didn't want to look at it anymore and turned around, almost running to her room.

Walking into the office, she could afford to let her emotions go. At first she was angry, very angry, then came the feeling of despair. How could Kara do this to her. This was painful. Of course, the blonde got everything she wanted, Lena was just being another fool.

After a while, the door to her office opened and a cheerful Kara walked in. She walked up to her boss, her smile extinguished when she noticed her girlfriend's red, crying eyes.

- Lena...what's wrong? - The blonde wanted to take her hand, but Lena sharply pulled her back and stood up from her seat and slapped her.

- You should enter the office after knocking and only after you have been authorized to enter. - Lena said coldly and sat down on her chair, turned away, trying to hide the tears that came.

Kara didn't understand what was going on, it hurt her to see her girlfriend so upset.

- Honey, what's wrong? - Kara squatted down next to the brunette. - Talk to me.

- Why? You got everything you wanted from me. Why would you talk to me? - Lena finally decided to look the girl in the eye.

- I don't understand you. What did I get? - Kara frowned and tried to take her hand again.

- Don't touch me! - Lena exclaimed. - I saw everything! You and Jess...

Kara looked at the girl fearfully and took a few steps away. - I can explain everything...

- I don't need your excuses. You've made your choice. Go away, I don't want to see you!

The blonde didn't move.

- I'll scream. - Lena warned.

- Do you know why I broke up with my last girlfriend and didn't start a new relationship for so long? - Kara didn't move too close, giving the brunette a safe space.

- What does that have to do with…

- She cheated on me. - The blonde answered her own question. - It was painful, very painful. I thought for a long time what I did wrong, why it happened, what made her so unhappy with me. And do you know what I came to?

Lena frowned and listened attentively to the detective.

- Nothing. I never could and never will be able to understand cheating. Jess wanted me, I turned her down. She kissed me herself, I didn't reciprocate. I promise, if I stop feeling the way I do about you now, I'll talk to you about it first. I won't do things behind your back, I won't hurt you like this. - The blonde saw the girl's face stop being so scowling and began to slowly approach. - I only have you.

- I didn't know you were being cheated on. - Lena stroked the blonde's cheek red from the slap, she realized she had overreacted by hitting her girlfriend too harshly.

- I don't like to talk about it. - Kara wrapped her arms around the brunette's waist and nuzzled her nose into her neck. - I would never lie to you.

They stood hugging for a few minutes before the blonde began kissing Lena's neck, nibbling and sucking on her pulse point.

- Kara, we're at work. - The brunette tilted her head to the side, encouraging her to continue.

- So? - Without pulling away from her neck, Kara murmured.

- Nothing. - Lena pulled the girl by her blond hair and kissed her passionately on the lips. She hurriedly unbuttoned her shirt and tossed it to the floor and began to unbutton her pants.

There was a knock on the door.

- Shit, I'm in a meeting. - Lena whispered fearfully.

- Cancel it. - suggested the blonde and pointed at her half-naked body with traces of red lipstick. - They can't see me like this.

- Wait! - Shouted the brunette and pointing her hand under her desk, whispered - Hide there.

Kara picked up her shirt from the floor and crawled under the table, while the brunette quickly painted her lips and sat down in her chair and called the employees who had come to the meeting.

- Have a seat. - In the office came two of her deputies with prepared reports on the work done for the month, and a few more heads.

The meeting began, the blonde sat under the table and did not know what to do. If she and Lena were alone in the office now, she knew exactly what they would do. Why should some strangers stop her from enjoying her girlfriend? Kara decided to take her chances, Lena would scold her later, but right now there was nothing stopping her from carrying out her plan.

She positioned herself between her legs and kissed first her knee and then her thigh. Catching Lena's surprised look, the blonde smirked and pulled up her skirt. The tangled fabric gave a perfect view of the wet spot in the middle of her panties.

Lena moved to the edge of the chair and spread her legs wider, she was clearly eager to cum despite her common sense telling her not to do it in public.

The blonde pressed a kiss to the fabric, soaked in arousal. In a very short time she had fallen in love with the flavor, it was better than anything she had ever tasted.

Kara pulled off her panties and slipped them into her pants pocket. She pressed a kiss to her clit, making her pale legs jump slightly.

Smirking, she looked at the brunette and continued her caresses. She drove her tongue around the most sensitive spot, teasing but not hitting it. It teased her, arousing her as much as possible with each passing moment. Finally, Kara sucked on her clit and gently inserted a finger into her vagina to find her g-spot.

It became too much for the brunette, her legs trembled, she could barely contain herself and was on the very edge.

- Mmm... We can call it a day. - Lena tried to disguise the moan that escaped as words. - Everyone is free to go.

The blonde wasted no time, she licked up everything Lena gave her.

After waiting for everyone to leave the office and close the door, the brunette threw her head up and clutched her hands into the chair, feeling a powerful release. She cum with a low moan, trying her best not to be heard.

- Kara... - Lena was becoming overly sensitive to these caresses. - Come here.

The blonde climbed out from under the table and pressed a passionate kiss to her girlfriend's lips.

- You taste so good. - Kara sat the brunette down on the table and stood between her legs.

- I can see how much you liked it. - Lena looked down to where a hard erection rested through her pants against her stomach.

- You're very sexy, I can't help it. - The blonde kissed her lips and moaned when she felt a hand squeezing her cock.

- We could have been seen. You were really badly behaved. - Lena continued to stroke her through the fabric, but then stopped. - I could have punished you and left you just like that.

Kara whimpered disappointedly. - Baby, please... I'll be really good.

- I'll help you. Only if you'll be quiet. - The brunette warned and knelt in front of the girl.

Lena pulled her pants down to her ankles along with her boxers, making her cock bounce in the cool air of the office and sucked on the head, tasting the prejaculate. She ran her tongue from base to tip and teased the frenulum.

- Lena... I'm not going to last much longer. - Kara had been ready to cum while still under the table, now she could barely contain herself, trying to savor the moment longer.

- Give me everything. - Lena opened her mouth and sticking her tongue out, started jerking off faster.

The blonde looked at her girlfriend mesmerized, she loved how hot she could be just for her.

- Aaaah... Fuck! - White streams of cum splashed onto the brunette's tongue.

Lena defiantly swallowed all of what the blonde gave her. She licked the head one last time and got up from her knees.

Kara pulled her in for a loving kiss, putting into it all the feelings she was afraid to say out loud.

- You're a fast learner. - praised the blonde. - So sexy...

- I have a great teacher. - Lena smirked and bit her lower lip. - Now, I want to feel you inside me.

She stroked the rapidly growing erection again.

- I don't have a condom with me. - Kara warned.

- I've started taking birth control. - Lena pulled down her skirt and unbuttoned her shirt.

The blonde turned the girl around and bent her over the table. She gathered the moisture accumulated from arousal with her cock and began to enter slowly, giving time to get used to the size.

- Watch the door. - The blonde began to pick up the pace. - Imagine what would happen if someone came in.

Lena realized that the office was not locked and indeed someone could walk in at any moment. For some unknown reason this excited her even more.

- Kara! - The brunette cried out as she felt fingers stroking her clit.

- They have no idea that their boss is being fucked on the desk in her own office right now. - Kara whispered in her ear and kissed her neck.

Lena squeezed her eyes shut and covered her mouth with her hand and began to moan. She could feel another orgasm coming, with the blonde it was so easy and quick to peak and climax. She couldn't imagine it happening like this.

- Cum, baby. - Kara straddled her waist and began to move her pelvis rapidly as she felt her cock squeeze the inner walls of her vagina.

Lena gave in to the pleasure and cried out, and if it hadn't been for the hand muffling the sounds, the whole department would have heard her.

Kara thrust a few more times and burst out of the tight walls and with a quiet moan, stained the brunette's ass white.

The heavy breathing of both girls filled the room. The blonde picked up some tissues lying on her boss's desk and wiped off her cum. She turned the brunette around to her and began to hug and gently kiss her lips and neck.

- Did I hurt you? - Kara worried that she might have gone a little overboard.

- No, you were great. - Lena stroked the back of her neck and kissed her temple.

- We really could have been caught. - Pulling away from the embrace, the blonde smiled and bent down for the pants still encircling her ankles.

- That was exciting. - Smiling, Lena also began to put on her skirt and buttoned her shirt. - But no more sex at work.

Kara pouted her lip and gave her a puppy dog look.

- No. Don't even try. - The brunette was determined not to give in to that look on her face.

The detective sighed frustratedly and picked up her shirt from the floor and continued to dress.

- Eliza, my foster mom, invited us to Midvale for the weekend. - Kara remembered why she had originally stopped by her girlfriend's office. - She wants to meet you. Of course, if you're not ready we don't have to go...

- I'm ready. - Lena interrupted her. - I want to meet her.

Kara smiled happily. - Alex and Sam will be there, too.

- I hope she likes us. - Lena was worried about the impression she would make on the blonde's mother.

- Eliza is nice, no need to worry. - Kara reassured her and kissed her gently on the lips.

The brunette looked at her watch, they had been doing the wrong thing for too long.

- I should get to work. - Lena said with a sigh. - You too, by the way.

- You're right, I have witnesses coming in soon. I'll see you later. - The blonde kissed her lips goodbye and left the office.

On her way back to her office, she reached into her pants pocket and smirked as she fumbled for her boss's ruined panties.

- Lena, breathe, it's okay. - Kara soothingly stroked her girlfriend's hand, they were now sitting in the car outside Eliza's house.

- It's not okay! She's not going to like me! - The brunette began to panic.

- Baby, that's not true. - The blonde kissed the back of her palm. - You're kind, smart, beautiful, Eliza will definitely see that.

Lena took a deep breath and nodded, she realized that all her fears were unfounded, Kara spoke well of her foster mother.

- Shall we go? - The blonde asked. - Alex and Sam are already there.

- Let's go. - Lena was about to get out of the car, but she was stopped by a warm hand that pulled her in for a soothing kiss on the lips.

- I'm right here. - Kara said. - Anytime you want, we can leave.

- Thank you.

The girls got out of the car and took the things they had brought for a few days and went to the entrance.

Kara knocked on the door. She hadn't been here in a long time, usually Eliza herself came to visit her and Alex.

The door opened, and a blonde-haired woman who looked like Kara, though not her birth mother, stood on the doorstep.

- Hi, sweetheart. - The woman smiled and pulled the blonde into a tight hug.

- Eliza, I'd like you to meet my girlfriend, Lena. - After a while, Kara pulled away and showed her girlfriend.

- Hello. - the brunette said hello.

- Lena, it's so good to finally see you. - The older Danvers gave the brunette an unexpectedly motherly hug. - Kara has told me a lot about you.

She didn't realize how she should react at first, but she quickly figured it out and reciprocated the hug.

- Honey, take your things to your room. - Eliza asked the blonde, pulling away. - I'll take Lena to the others.

Kara went to the second floor of the house, and the brunette went to the living room, where Alex and Sam were sitting. They greeted each other with hugs.

- Girls, there's a fair in town today. Would you like to go? - Eliza suggested it.

- The same fair that Kara loves? - Alex asked, remembering her sister's love for the event.

- Yes, that's the one. - nodded the grown woman.

- Kara just loves the doughnuts from there. - Alex told her.

- Donuts?! - a blonde girl walked into the room. - Are we going to the fair?

- If you want to. - Eliza looked questioningly at the other girls.

- Who could say no to that puppy dog look? - Sam pointed at the expression on the blonde's face. - I'd like to see where Alex and Kara grew up.

- I'd like to take a look too. - Lena smiled at the blonde, who shrieked happily.

- Yay! We're going to the fair! - Kara kissed the brunette on the cheek.

- Honey, will you show Lena your room? - Eliza suggested. - Alex and Sam set up in the guest bedroom, I know you're adults now, you need your own space.

Kara smiled and took her girlfriend's hand and led her to her former room.

- You have a thoughtful mom. - Lena remarked.

- Yes, she's the best. By the way, she likes you, I could see it in her eyes. - The blonde opened the door to her room and let the brunette in.

Lena looked around, she liked the design, everything looked so cozy. On the walls hung different posters with popular music bands, there were also two beds, a closet, a chair and a table, above which hung shelves with books and textbooks.

- Which bed is yours? - The brunette asked.

- By the window. I liked to look at the sky and the stars at night. - Kara recalls. - I imagined that somewhere out there my parents were looking at me.

Lena approached the blonde, hugged her tightly and kissed her on the temple. - They'd be proud of you.

- You think? - Kara nuzzled her nose into her pale neck.

- I'm sure. - The brunette stroked the girl's back.

- I miss them. - Kara exhaled sadly. - I have Alex, Eliza, but I still miss them.

- It's okay, you loved them. No one can replace them, and you don't need to. They will always be in your heart. - Lena said, still hugging her girlfriend. - Will you tell me about them?

Kara took a deep breath, she wanted Lena to know more about her parents, she hadn't been able to talk to anyone about this topic in a long time.

- I had wonderful parents. Loving and understanding. My mom worked as a judge, maybe because of her I joined the police force. She taught me honesty and fairness. Dad was a scientist. I spent a lot of time in his laboratory, he showed me different experiments. Because of him, I loved science and did well in school. - Kara recalls wistfully. - After their deaths, I closed myself down a lot, put up walls around me. My new family helped me. They made me realize that I had to carry on my parents legacy.

- You're lucky to have good people. - Lena was glad the blonde was in such a family where she was loved and supported.

They cuddled for a while longer, Kara feeling the soothing heartbeat and warm breath on her cheek.

- Shall we go downstairs? - The brunette asked after a few minutes.

- Let's go. - Kara took her hand and the girls walked back downstairs to the living room.

Eliza, Sam, and Alex were sitting on the couch. The older Danvers had found a photo album and was showing off some funny pictures.

- Lena, come join us, there are so many pictures of the girls. - Eliza invited the brunette.

Alex gave her her seat next to her mother. She walked over to her sister and smiled.

- Does anyone want tea or coffee? - Alex asked everyone.

Sam and Lena asked for coffee and Eliza chose tea.

- Kara, give me a hand. - She called her sister into the kitchen. - They were getting along great, Sam was so nervous.

- Lena was nervous too. - The blonde started helping make the drinks. - I'm glad everything is going so well. Eliza is the best.

- Yes, mom knows how to be friendly.

The girls finished in the kitchen and carried their mugs into the living room.

A cheerful laughter could be heard in the room.

- Mom, are you showing those very pictures? - Alex walked over to her mother and looked into the album.

There was little Alex in the picture, smeared with toothpaste.

- I stepped away for just a minute. When I came back, the whole bathroom and your face were covered in white paste. - Eliza smiled at the memory.

She flipped through the album and found a new picture of the sisters showing their tongues to the camera.

- You're so cute here. - Lena smiled softly at her girlfriend, she felt a pleasant flutter on her heart, Kara was making her feel so in love.

After looking at a few more pictures, Eliza glanced at the time and realized that the fair was about to start. They needed to pack up and get out of the house.

**********

An hour later, they headed to the fair. It wasn't far from home, so they decided to walk.

Kara walked under the arm of the brunette and showed her all her favorite places along the way, stores, cafes, squares. She told various funny stories from her childhood, making the brunette smile and laugh like no other.

As they approached the fair, the girls heard music. At the entrance, the blonde noticed a stall with her favorite donuts.

- Lena, you have to try these. - Kara pulled the brunette along with her. - It's the best you've ever had.

- It's too fatty and sweet for my figure.

The blonde didn't listen to any objections and bought them a couple donuts.

- Come on, I've seen you naked. You look amazing. - Kara smiled and handed the girl a donut. - Just try one.

Lena blushed slightly at the compliment, she was pleased with how Kara was appreciating her body. She decided to take a bite after all and groaned. It was just butter fried dough, but so delicious. Kara was right, she hadn't tasted anything better.

- How was it? - The blonde asked and took a bite of her donut.

- Delicious. - Lena smiled and took another bite.

After finishing her dessert, Kara looked at her girlfriend with loving eyes. She stroked her cheek and pulled her in for a gentle kiss.

- So delicious, just like a donut. - Kara smiled and kissed those sweet lips once more.

- I'm going to throw up from this cuteness. - Alex wrinkled her nose at her sister.

- Turn away. - Kara kissed her girlfriend again, licking the sugar off her upper lip.

- Sam, we're leaving. There's a big swing further down there, I want to show it to you. - Alex took the girl's hand and led her away from the sweet couple.

- I'm going too, I need to find some seeds for the garden. Don't be bored. - Eliza said and left as well.

- Let's go to the shooting range, you can win a huge teddy bear there. - suggested the blonde, showing the size of the big toy with her hands.

- Are you sure you can win it? - The brunette raised an eyebrow.

- Of course, I'm the best shot. - Kara said smugly, taking the girl's hand and dragging her to the shooting range.

She was indeed the best shot. Out of ten shot attempts, the blonde never missed once.

- I told you so. - Kara grinned and took the huge bear. - It's yours to keep as a reminder of me.

Lena took the gift and hugged the soft toy. She was pleased with the blonde's attention, every little thing, how she was trying for her, Lena appreciated it all.

- I see cotton candy. - The brunette nodded towards a bench with lots of candy.

- Let's go! - Kara exclaimed cheerfully.

They happily ate the cotton candy, holding hands and occasionally kissing. Lena felt like the luckiest person in the world, enjoying a beautiful day in the company of her favorite girl.

- Danvers? - Suddenly a female voice came from behind her.

Kara turned around and looked at the girl in surprise.

- Sara?

- Hi. - Sara smiled and nodded toward the brunette and asked. - Your new girlfriend?

- Yes. - Kara visibly tensed at Sara's arrival.

- Lena Luthor. - the brunette introduced herself.

- Sara Lance. - The girls met and shook hands.

- How's James doing? - Kara asked. - Are you two still dating?

The blonde hadn't spoken to the guy since the affair. She couldn't look at him without remembering in her head the images of naked bodies and intertwined limbs in their bed.

- He's doing fine. He and I were never together. What you saw back then didn't mean anything serious. - Sara shrugged.

- It's nothing serious... I see. - the blonde took her girlfriend's hand, she was uncomfortable in Sara's presence.

- You don't hold a grudge against me?

- No, you just cheated on me with my friend. - The blonde hadn't felt anything for her in a long time, no anger, no longing, no love. - But I let it go.

After the breakup, Kara couldn't open up to new people for a long time, she was afraid of getting stabbed in the back, of feeling that pain again.

- We never talked then... - Sara remembered.

- I don't want to talk about it. - Kara said with a frown.

- I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry. - Sara apologized sincerely. - I wish you happiness, I really do.

Lena stroked the back of the blonde's palm with her thumb. Even though she felt unpleasant jealousy, Kara needed to put a stop to it. She understood how hard it was to get over the betrayal and wanted to be there for her, to support her.

- Thank you. - Kara didn't want to talk to her anymore. - We have to go, good luck to you.

The girls said goodbye and walked as far away as possible.

- Kara... - the brunette began. - Are you okay?

- I'm fine. - Kara took a deep breath.

- If you want, we can go home. - Lena suggested.

- No, I still want to ride the carousel with you. - Kara chased away all the painful memories and smiled, she only wanted to think about her girlfriend.

**********

Back home in the evening, Lena felt very rested and energized with positive energy. She had missed that for a long time. She put the huge bear given to her by Kara in their bedroom and went into the living room. The blonde stayed in the backyard with her sister and Sam.

Eliza was on the couch and noticed the brunette enter and smiled genuinely.

- Thank you for such a warm welcome. - Lena sat down next to her.

- You know, you're the first girl Kara's ever introduced me to. - Eliza remarked.

- Really? - The brunette was surprised.

- Yes. And I'm glad she has you. I see the way she looks at you and the way you look at her. - Eliza took the girl's hand. - Thank you for making her happy.

Lena wasn't used to this kind of motherly attitude yet. The brunette was surprised how someone who barely knows her could talk to her so warmly.

- She makes me happy, too. You've raised a beautiful daughter. - Lena smiled and squeezed the grown woman's palm.

A few minutes later, Kara came in. She sat down next to her girlfriend on the couch and smiled. Following her, Alex and Sam came over.

They had decided to watch a family comedy before going to bed. Kara and Lena snuggled closely together, enjoying the warmth and comfort. Lena thought she could stay like this forever, surrounded by these people, she felt like part of this family.

- Shall we go to bed? - The blonde whispered into her dark hair as she noticed her girlfriend yawning again.

- Let's go. - Lena was very tired for today, it was full of many events, good and not so good.

After wishing everyone a good night, the girls went up to the blonde's room. They took turns in the bathroom, got ready for bed and changed into their pajamas and went to bed.

Kara gently kissed her favorite lips and stroked her pale belly. She loved the warmth and comfort coming from her boss. She ran a trail of kisses down to her neck and gently sucked on her pulse point, causing the brunette to moan softly.

- Kara... We... We can't. - Gasping with heated excitement, Lena whispered.

- Why not? - The blonde lowered her kisses to her pale collarbones.

- They might hear us. - The brunette didn't want to give in to these caresses, but Kara was so skillful at making her forget everything.

- We just have to be quieter. - She pulled down her girlfriend's pajama top and kissed those full breasts. - I want you.

- Kara... - Lena buried her hands in her blonde hair and bit her lip, trying not to make too much noise.

The blonde gently sucked on a nipple, sending goosebumps all over the brunette's body.

- Yes... - Lena pushed the detective away for a few moments and removed the rest of her pajamas while Kara undressed as well.

Completely naked, the girls lay there kissing. Kara was on top, their hardened nipples rubbing against each other so delightfully. She slid her hand down between them and stroked the brunette's center.

- You're so wet already. - She whispered between kisses. - All for me?

- For you... Mmm... - Lena moaned as Kara stroked her sensitive clit. - I need more...

The blonde took the straining cock in her hand and guided it into her juicing vagina and began to slowly enter.

- It was so tight. - Kara completely submerged herself inside and began * to retreat.

Lena rested her face against her girlfriend's neck and moaned softly. She could already feel the release coming soon. It didn't take long for the blonde to bring her to the edge.

Kara massaged her clit with her fingers and felt the walls of her vagina squeezing her cock deliciously. The brunette's orgasm passed silently, forcing the blonde closer to her own release.

- Baby, where do you want me to cum? - Kara asked.

- Inside. - Lena wanted to feel everything the blonde could give her.

Kara kept thrusting, feeling like she was on the edge. She wanted so badly to prolong this moment, to savor it longer. She could feel the brunette getting closer again.

- Kara... - the brunette moaned softly. - Don't stop... - Will you cum with me? - Kara kissed the girl's pale neck.

Instead of answering, Lena moaned as the blonde shot her cum inside, making her follow suit, experiencing a terrific orgasm.

Heavy breathing filled the room. Kara kissed the brunette gently on the lips, she didn't want to leave the warmth enveloping her.

Lena stroked her strong buttocks, pulling her to her and kissed the girl's temple. She didn't want the blonde to come out of her either, she wanted to be as close as possible.

- Stay inside. - Lena asked.

- Sure. - Kara kissed the girl shoulder and hugged her.

Soon, only quiet breathing was heard in the room. Both girls felt a strong affection and love that they were afraid to say out loud to each other.

Chapter Text

The weekend was great, but all good things must be in moderation, so the girls had to leave Midvale. Lena had a wonderful time, she liked Eliza, with her genuine kindness and motherly care. She would love to come back here someday.

It was getting colder in the city. Winter was approaching and the weather was rainy and overcast. Lena didn't like it, it made her feel sad and dreary.

Kara, on the contrary, liked it. A walk in the rain, frowning clouds, always helps her to gather her thoughts, to ponder the many moments of her life.

After work, she usually drove the brunette home and went for a walk for a while. Lena didn't like to get wet, so she always waited for her with a warm blanket and tea. Lately, they practically lived together, the blonde often stayed overnight at her place, half of her closet was pumped into her apartment. Lena thought about suggesting that the detective make it official, move in completely.

- Darling, are you going out again? - Watching the blonde put on her sneakers, Lena asked. - It's especially cold today, you might get sick.

- I never get sick. - Kara kissed her girlfriend on the lips and went to leave the apartment. - I'll be back soon.

She came back completely soaked, chatter of teeth against the x cold.

- How was your walk? - Lena asked. - You look like a wet dog.

- I didn't expect it to pour like that. I like a little drizzle better than a waterfall from the sky. - Kara went to change into dry clothes. - And an icy wind. Why did you even let me go out there?

- I warned you. - reminded the brunette and wrapped the detective in a warm blanket. - If you get sick, I won't treat you.

- I never get sick, I already told you. The last time I had a cold, I was in high school. - the blonde really rarely got sick, she had a good immune system.

- You sure? - The brunette raised an eyebrow.

- Sure.

The next day she got sick.

Cough, runny nose, sore throat, and fever. The whole package.

- You're never going out in the rain again. - Lena said sternly, wrapping the blonde warmer in a blanket.

- Well Lenaa... - Kara whimpered. - It has nothing to do with that. I was just sneezed on all day, that's why I got infected.

- Yeah, of course... - the brunette knew what was needed for a sick body and was determined to cure her girlfriend as soon as possible. - You should get some more sleep.

Lena didn't want to leave the blonde in such a helpless state, so she took the day off.

- Will you tell me a bedtime story? - Kara's voice came from under the blanket.

- I will. - Lena sat on the edge of the bed and began to remember a fairy tale.

Little Red Riding Hood came to her mind first and she told it. Hearing the steady sniffling, the brunette wanted to go to the kitchen and make them dinner. She was about to get out of bed when she was stopped by a quiet whimper.

- Noooo... - Kara whimpered. - Don't go.

- I'll be right back. I'll just make you some chicken soup. - Lena calmed her down. - Sleep a little longer.

- Come back soon. - Kara covered herself with the blanket and sniffled again.

She didn't like being sick. It was having to lay around all day and do nothing. There was no going to work or to the bar with her friends. Usually, she spent her worst days alone, nursing herself, and sometimes her sister would stop by, but that didn't happen often, Alex had work to do. This time, she felt better just thinking about the brunette. That she was around, taking care of her, helping her, cooking delicious food. She liked it when the girl soothingly stroked her back, touched her hot forehead with her lips, pitied her, said affectionate words to her. With thoughts of her wonderful girl, the blonde quickly fell asleep.

An hour later she woke up to the delicious smell of chicken soup. Lena came to her and gave her a plate on a tray.

- I'm hot, open the window. - asked the blonde and began to eat the soup.

- Do you want to worsen the disease? - Lena raised an eyebrow.

- Airing out is good. Or do you want me to melt from this heat? - Kara groaned at the taste, she loved the way her girlfriend cooked so much. - It's amazing. You have golden hands.

Lena touched her lips to her forehead, which wasn't so hot anymore, and decided to open the window after all. Airing was really helpful, but only within reason.

Kara happily finished her meal and handed the plate back to the brunette.

- Thank you, baby. - Kara pouted her lips for a kiss and reached for her girlfriend.

- No, you're sick. - Lena stopped her lips with her index finger. - If you make me sick, who else is going to treat you?

- Lena! - Kara whimpered, she wanted to kiss her beloved. - That's how you take care of me. And if I die? It could be our last kiss.

- Don't be silly. - Lena smiled at the dramatic nature of her girlfriend.

- It's not silly. I have a fever, a headache and a sore throat. And my whole body aches. I'm definitely dying. - Kara pouted sadly. - And you won't even give me one last kiss.

- You're acting like a child. - Lena kissed the blonde after all, but only on the forehead. - Better?

- Not exactly what I wanted... But it'll do. - Kara smiled and took the brunette's hand. - Will you read me a book?

- Which one do you want? - Lena brushed away a strand of sweat-wet hair stuck to the blonde's forehead.

- Harry Potter.

- It's a children's book. You're not five years old. - The brunette raised an eyebrow at her, wondering how this seemingly mature girl could be such a child sometimes.

- It's not a children's book. - Kara objected. - Have you even read it?

Lena shook her head negatively, causing the detective's eyes to widen in horror.

- No, Luthor! There's no way you haven't read it. - Kara didn't want to believe it, Lena just couldn't miss something like that. - It's the best fiction there is. My favorite universe, the Harry Potter universe.

- It's silly. A fairy tale for children about wizards who do spells with a wand. Who even came up with that? - Lena didn't understand the blonde's enthusiasm for the book.

- I don't want to talk to you until you read it. - Kara furrowed her eyebrows. - Now close the window, I'm cold.

- You don't want to talk to me. - Lena grinned. - You only lasted a second.

- Get off. - Kara turned on her other side, turning away from the brunette. - Read me a book.

Lena giggled at the blonde and closed the window. She opened Harry Potter on her phone and began to read. Surprisingly, it wasn't too bad. Quite the opposite, even. She was enjoying it.

Kara looked fondly at the girl reading. She loved that look on her face, focused on the text, the way she frowned or smiled at some points.

- Kiss me. - Kara made a battered puppy dog expression and pouted her lip. - Please.

- Honey, we've talked about this before. - Lena looked up from her book and reminded her.

- But I want it so badly... - the blonde whimpered.

- What can I do? It is not harmful to want. - smiled the brunette.

- Lenaaaa... - Kara got another reason to dislike being sick. - My girlfriend refuses to kiss me. It's outrageous. I'll complain.

- And who will you complain to? - Lena carefully tucked the girl's blanket.

- What kind of stupid question is that? To the society for the protection of those who are not kissed by their girlfriends, of course. - As if it were obvious, the blonde replied.

- You shouldn't have walked in the rain. I warned you.

- I got sneezed on! - Kara exclaimed.

- Keep thinking like that. - Lena got out of bed.

- Where are you going? - Panicked blonde.

- I'll bring you tea with raspberry jam.

Kara couldn't believe her luck. Lena was so caring, making her soup, bringing her tea, putting up with her antics. No one had ever fiddled with her like that, except Eliza when she was a baby. It was so sweet, the brunette had even taken the day off work for her. Kara truly loved this girl.

Lena made some tea and pulled out some raspberry jam. She didn't like the blonde being sick, she wasn't used to denying the girl kisses, but it was Kara's own fault. Even though Luthor had a good immune system, there was a risk of getting sick.

The brunette returned to the room and handed the detective some tea and jam.

- Thank you. - Kara sat up in bed and started blowing on the hot drink, trying to cool it down.

- When you're done, we'll gargle. - She took out the medicine the doctor had prescribed and began to read the instructions.

- Is it bitter? - Kara asked with a wince.

- Very.

- Lena! - the blonde exclaimed fearfully. - I don't want...

- It's not bitter, it's lemon and mint flavored. - the brunette reassured her.

- If you tricked me and it turns out to be bitter... - Kara started.

- Then what? - Lena raised an eyebrow.

- Nothing... - the blonde sighed heavily, she couldn't think of a way to punish her girlfriend, and she didn't want to. Lena was so caring and patient.

After finishing her tea, the blonde wandered off to gargle her throat. Lena was not deceiving, the medicine was not bitter. Back in the room, Kara lay in bed and covered herself with a warm blanket.

- My head hurts. - The blonde wrinkled her nose.

Lena gave her a pill and took her temperature, it was not too high.

- You can tell me honestly. I can take it. - Creating a dramatic pause and taking a deep breath, Danvers continued. - Am I dying? Tell Alex and Eliza that I love them...

-I'm about to kill you myself... - Lena frowned. - You're not dying!

- I'm not? Are you sure? My side is already starting to stab... - the blonde was always overly suspicious during her illness.

Lena lightly pinched the girl's leg through the blanket.

- Ouch! - Kara shrieked. - You decided to finish me off so I wouldn't suffer? Good idea, that way you won't have to mess with me for long.

- You're unbearable. - Lena rolled her eyes. - One more time you say you're dying, no more kisses... Ever.

- Okay, I won't do it again. - Kara took the girl's hand and kissed the back of her palm. - I'm thirsty. Can you get me some water?

- What would you do without me? - Lena stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

- What you asked me not to say. - Kara replied quietly.

Lena smiled and left to get water.

**********

The next day the detective felt no better. There was still a slight fever, cough, runny nose and sore throat. Kara lay in bed, wrapped in two blankets, next to her, Lena sat on the chair. It was good that today was a day off and she could still keep an eye on the blonde.

- Baby, I don't think it's gonna stop. I'm still hurting all over. - whimpered the blonde.

- Did you think you were gonna get better in a day? - Lena raised an eyebrow at her.

- I was hoping... - Kara sighed.

- You don't to be back at work for another week. I, as your boss, don't allow you to be there.

- That's not fair! - exclaimed the blonde. - You're taking advantage of your position.

- I want you to heal, not run after criminals. - The brunette shrugged. - Just imagine that this is not a sick leave, but a well-deserved vacation for excellent work.

- Yeah... How can I imagine it if you don't even kiss me? - Kara grumbled resentfully.

- Would it make you feel better if I kissed you? - Sighing, the brunette asked.

Kara smiled and nodded vigorously.

Lena realized she was taking the risk of getting sick, but she missed her girlfriend's soft lips as much as the blonde. She hoped that if Kara couldn't infect her yesterday when they'd x been in close contact all day, she couldn't infect her today. One kiss wouldn't ruin anything.

- Only on one condition. - Lena said sternly. - You'll stay home for the whole sick leave and won't try to run away before you're supposed to while I'm at work.

- Deal! - Kara sat up in bed and stretched her lips out for a kiss.

Lena smiled at the detective's sweet face and took a seat next to her on the bed. She connected their lips, feeling soft and warm. They hadn't kissed in just a day, but it was enough to make her miss such a pleasant sensation intensely.

Kara stroked her pale cheek, she loved the softness of her girlfriend's smooth skin. Just kissing, connecting their lips in a chaste kiss, the blonde felt at home, safe and comfortable.

Pulling away slightly, the girls smiled sweetly at each other. Green met blue in a loving gaze.

- I missed this. - Practically on the brunette's lips, Kara whispered.

- Me too. - Lena kissed the corner of her lover's mouth one last time and got out of bed. - Now go to sleep, you need to get your strength back.

**********

The next day, Lena felt the effects of that kiss. She kept sneezing, had a runny nose and watery eyes. The blonde, on the other hand, was on the mend.

- I'll never kiss you again. - muttered the brunette and blew her nose into a napkin.

- Well Lenaaa...

Chapter Text

A few days later, the girls cozied up in front of the TV at the brunette's house. They sat hugging each other and watching some weekend show, enjoying the closeness and warmth of each other's bodies. Lena couldn't stop thinking about suggesting that the blonde move in together. They already spent a lot of their free time together and she enjoyed it a lot. She didn't know how Kara would feel about the idea. Perhaps it was too soon for them, but she felt she was ready to move on to the next stage of their relationship, sharing a common space, a household.

- I wanted to ask you something. - Lena began excitedly. - It's about us, our relationship.

- What is it? - The blonde took the girl's hand, intertwining their fingers, she felt some excitement from her girlfriend's tone.

- You spend a lot of time at my place... - Lena looked at the detective's frowning face and decided to calm her down right away. - I like it.

- Then what's the matter? - Kara asked. - If you like it, then you're not kicking me out?

- I want to live together. - The brunette decided not to drag it out. - Will you move in with me?

The blonde didn't even have to think about it. She loved to be near her girlfriend, she wanted nothing so much as to wake up and fall asleep every day next to her.

- If you're not ready, just say so. It's okay, you can have your own personal space in your apartment... 

- No! I want some, too. - The blonde interrupted the girl, gently stroking the back of her hand with her thumb. - I want to live with you.

- You do? - Lena smiled, she was glad that the blonde was on the same page with her and felt the same way.

- Sure. - The blonde kissed the girl on the cheek. - But I need help with the move.

- I'd be happy to help. Do you have a lot of stuff? - The brunette asked. - Can we do it all in a weekend?

- You already have quite a bit of my closet. There's not much left. I still have to pick up a few little things. A couple of trips and you're all set. - Kara was determined to get the whole place moved in over the weekend. - Shall we start today?

Lena smiled and nodded affirmatively. She was excited at the prospect of moving in together so soon. In fact, not much would change in their lives; the blonde had often spent evenings and nights at her place before. But the realization that this wasn't just happening spontaneously, but that they were actually living together was a nice feeling.

**********

The next day, the girls checked into the blonde's apartment one last time. They packed up the rest of their belongings, Kara going around all the rooms and checking for anything she might have forgotten.

- You can come back here at any time. - The brunette remarked.

- I know... - Kara sighed heavily. - I realize that the apartment will stay, but it's so sad to leave here.

- You can change your mind. I won't pressure you. - Lena didn't want to insist on moving, it had to be a conscious decision so that Kara wouldn't regret it.

The blonde felt homesick, she was so used to this place, she loved the view, the neighbors, the diner around the corner, but she also wanted to be closer to Lena, to be able to take care of her all the time.

- Baby... - the blonde walked over to her girlfriend and stroked her pale cheek with the palm of her hand. - I really want to live with you, spend my evenings with you, fall asleep and wake up with you. I'm just sad to leave this place, I've been through so much.

- We could stay a little longer. - suggested the brunette, enjoying the warm touch of her girlfriend.

- I have an idea... - Kara smirked and ran her hand from her collarbones to her firm breasts. - How you can say goodbye to this place with dignity.

- If it helps you... Ahhh... - she couldn't hold back a quiet moan as the blonde squeezed her breasts. - I'd love to say goodbye to this place with you.

Kara pulled the girl in for a hot kiss, their tongues entwined and their hands roaming all over her body.

Picking Lena up bridal style, the blonde carried her into the bedroom. She plopped the girl on the soft bed and began kissing her neck, eliciting a pleasant shiver of anticipation and sending vibrations of arousal, right to her center.

Kara loved the sounds the brunette was making so much. The moans, the loud sighs, it was so arousing. She could listen to it forever, she loved the effect it had on her girlfriend. The blonde moved down lower with kisses, removing her clothes in the process. She pulled back her bra and began to tease her aroused nipples with the tip of her tongue.

Lena wriggled and moaned, wanting more, the heat in her lower abdomen flaring, making her panties wet.

- Kara... I want... To feel your body... - gasping with desire, the brunette tried to pull off the girl's T-shirt.

The blonde understood her intentions and, pulling away, began to quickly undress, while Lena also took off her pants and panties. Left completely naked, they pressed closely against each other and kissed hotly.

- I want to taste you first. - Kara pulled away from her lips and lay on her back. - Sit on my face.

The brunette quickly did as the girl asked. She spread her legs around her head and gently lowered herself down. This pose was new to them, causing the brunette to feel a huge rush of arousal.

Lena's pink pussy, glistening with moisture, made Kara even more aroused in anticipation of feeling it on her cock. But right now, she wanted to feel the brunette's release on her tongue. She could do this forever, she loved that sweet taste so much.

Her skillful tongue got right down to business, circling around her clit and lightly sucking, making the brunette moan loudly at the amazing sensations. Kara always made her feel good, bringing her to a peak so skillfully.

Lena was turned so that she could reach her hand to the hard cock and decided to take advantage of this opportunity, straddling the length, she began to jerk off, gradually picking up the pace. She knew from adult movies that this position was called 69, it was so unusual to try something new that she could only fantasize about before.

Kara ran her tongue along her vagina and reaching the cherished spot, she slid her tongue in, making the girl press harder against her hot mouth and moan. After a few moments, she felt Lena lean down to her length, kissed the head and took it into her mouth. The blonde's cock began to penetrate deeper into that moist heat of her throat, and her tongue skillfully drew different patterns all over the shaft.

- Lena! Baby, you're so sexy. - Pulling away from her pussy, Kara said.

The blonde returned to her occupation and took the straining clit into her mouth and sucked hard.

Lena cried out in pleasure and pulling away from the cock, began to caress the smooth testicles, stroking them with her tongue and pulling each one in turn into her mouth, simultaneously jerking the blonde off.

- Kara! Aaah... Yeah! Don't stop! - The brunette's legs trembled as she felt the intense release overtaking her.

Lena rested her forehead against her girlfriend's thigh and squeezed her eyes shut, breathing heavily. Kara continued her caresses, wanting to prolong her orgasm and collect all the juices she had given her.

Kissing the sensitive clit one last time, the blonde pulled away and stroked her pale legs.

- Will you saddle me or are you tired? - Kara kissed the girl's thigh.

Luthor recovered quickly, she turned around to face the blonde and kissed her, moaning at her own taste.

- Am I on top tonight? - The brunette smirked and playfully bit her lower lip with her teeth.

- If you want. - Kara stroked her firm breasts and squeezed them lightly, feeling the weight in her hands.

Lena leaned the cock against her hot entrance and began to slowly sit up, looking into the blue eyes.

- Baby... So tight... Mmm... - the blonde moaned at the feel of the inner walls of her vagina.

Lowering herself completely, Lena grasped her tense abs for support. She felt amazing, so full and stretched.

Kara watched mesmerized as her girlfriend began to rise so that only the head remained inside and lowered back down. The brunette's breasts bounced along with her, creating a beautiful view and forcing the detective closer to the edge.

Lena was also close, she could feel another orgasm approaching. The head of the blonde's cock was rubbing against all the right places inside her, causing inexpressible sensations.

- I'm so close... Aah! Fuck! - The brunette cried out as the detective's thumb pressed on her clit.

After a few circular strokes on the tense bump, Lena cummed with a loud groan, clutching her cock with her inner muscles.

After a while, Kara couldn't hold back any longer and followed her girlfriend, shooting white jets of semen into her vagina.

- Lena... You're amazing. - The blonde pulled the girl in for a loving kiss.

They continued to kiss lazily, stroking each other's tongues. Kara put her arms around the brunette's waist, pulling her as close to her as possible.

Danvers felt like she would do anything for this girl, she loved her so much, wanted to be there for her always. After waiting for the brunette to come to her senses and catch her breath, the detective decided to be frank.

- Lena? - in the voice of the blonde heard excitement and tension. - I've wanted to tell you something for a long time...

The brunette lifted herself up so that the softening cock slipped out of her and settled down next to the blonde, putting her head on her chest.

- Did I do something wrong? You didn't like it? Shit, I must be really bad at this... - Lena rambled excitedly, trying not to look into her girlfriend's eyes, afraid to see in them confirmation of her hunch.

The blonde interrupted her fears with a gentle kiss and took her hand, intertwining their fingers.

- I love it, I love it so much, you're so great. You're doing so well. x I just... - Kara took a deep breath and raised her eyes to the ceiling, gathering her thoughts.

- Darling, tell me what's bothering you. - Lena kissed her collarbone and stroked the back of her hand with her thumb.

- I love you. - The blonde looked the girl in the eyes. - I realized it some time ago, you may not feel the same way, I just wanted you to know. You don't have to tell me anything, to reciprocate, but I love you very much. More than I've ever loved anyone, ever.

- I love you, too. - whispered the brunette.

- You do, too? - Kara smiled.

- Yes... I've never felt this way before, you make me feel special, you make me so happy.

- You make me happy too. - the blonde kissed the girl on the forehead. - I want you to know how wonderful you are. You're so kind... - kiss on the temple. - So beautiful... - a kiss on the cheek. - So smart... - kiss on the nose. - You are the best... - finally, a kiss on the sweet lips.

- I love you. - whispered the brunette and reached down and stroked her hardening cock again. - And I want to show you how much.

After a few terrific orgasms, the girls pressed tightly against each other and kissed lazily. They had strong feelings that they were now not afraid to say out loud. After a while, even breathing was heard in the room, the girls fell asleep.

**********

Blonde woke up to an unpleasant ringing and insistent knocking on the front door. She didn't want to get out of the warm bed, especially when her favorite girl was lying on it, keeping her warm and creating a feeling of comfort and safety.

After a couple minutes, the knocking and ringing didn't stop. She hoped that these people, whoever was there, would just leave, but that wasn't happening.

- Why won't I get any sleep on my last day off? - The blonde muttered quietly, climbing out of bed, trying not to wake the brunette.

- Honey, are you coming soon? - Without opening her eyes, the sleepy Lena asked, feeling her personal soft heater stop hugging her.

- Yeah, I'll be right back. - she put on the first clothes she could find, gray athletic pants and a loose white T-shirt. - Sleep, my love.

The knocking on the door got louder and more insistent.

- Knock on your head! - exclaimed the blonde, opening the front door.

Three large men with holstered pistols stood on the doorstep, their faces scowling and serious.

- Detective Danvers? - One of them asked.

- That's right. - The blonde didn't understand what was going on or why they were coming to her.

- You're under arrest. Come with us. - The older man said seriously.

- What the fuck? Show me your ID, where's the detention order? On what grounds? - Kara frowned, she was sure there was some mistake.

The officer showed his ID and the order.

- You are detained on suspicion of tampering with evidence and organizing drug trafficking.

- That can't be. - The blonde shook her head. - That's complete nonsense, I didn't do anything like that.

The men looked at each other and went for the detective. One of them tried to grab her arm, but she dodged and shoved him in the shoulder.

- It's only because of your service and respect from your superiors that you're being held by us, not by an arrest team. But if you resist, we will use physical force.

- Fuck you! - exclaimed the blonde.

The three of them threw her face to the floor and put her hands behind her back and began to handcuff her.

- What the hell?! - came a stern voice from the hallway.

The blonde turned her head sideways and saw Luthor standing nearby, wrapped in a blanket.

- I said, what the hell? - The brunette's stern gaze settled on the man cuffing the blonde's hands.

- Don't interfere with our work. We're apprehending a dangerous criminal.

- I'm the chief of police, Lena Luthor. On what grounds are you detaining my employee? - the brunette gave one of the men a cold stare.

- You will be notified later, but in the meantime, don't cause unnecessary trouble. We're acting within the law.

- Baby, it's okay, it's just some kind of mistake. - Kara reassured the girl as she was lifted off the floor and dragged to the exit.

- I'll take care of it, I promise! - Lena shouted after her, but the front door had already closed.

Chapter Text

- They'd just taken her from her own apartment in handcuffs? - Alex paced around the office where the agitated boss had burst in a few minutes ago.

- Yes, they came this morning. I got here right away. I managed to get through to my contacts in senior positions, detention has been agreed, there is a ruling. - Lena told.

- You do realize she didn't do any of that, right? - Alex stopped her pointless walking and looked at the brunette.

- Of course! - Lena exclaimed. - She didn't do anything wrong.

- Good. - The older Danvers exhaled and sat down in her desk chair. - Then we need to find out what they have on her.

- Lex hired some good lawyers. They've found some witnesses who claim that Kara was the one who organized the whole drug business.

On the way to the department, Lena managed to contact John, who gave some information.

- They also have camera footage that clearly shows Kara. But I doubt their veracity. Even though forensics showed no evidence of video editing, I don't believe it.

- What about Lex? Has he been released? - Alex crossed her arms over her chest and frowned.

- Yeah, as recently as last night. They apologized and promised to make amends for the inconvenience. - Lena was so angry with her brother, but there was nothing she could do about the situation.

- What a bitch! - Alex was angry, she didn't want her sister in detention center, she was innocent.

- We'll get her out. - Lena promised.

- How? We are forbidden to interfere in the investigation. We don't have access to important information. - Alex didn't know what to do, how she could help her sister.

- We'll find her the best lawyer. We'll run our own investigation in addition to the main one. We will definitely help her. - Lena tried to put confidence in her voice, she needed to be like this for Kara's sake.

- We don't have authorization for this. Anything we find will have no legal standing. Evidence gathered illegally won't help her. - Alex was panicking, her voice shaking.

- We'll go through a lawyer. It's going to be okay, Alex. - Lena put a hand on the girl's shoulder.

The elder Danvers sighed heavily and covered her face with her hands. - I'm so worried about her, it's at first glance she seems strong and tough. She actually has a very kind and vulnerable heart. I don't even want to think about how scared she is right now. She's out there surrounded by criminals who have actually committed dangerous acts, she's being accused by people who don't care about who goes to jail, she's all alone against all of this.

- I understand all of that. - The brunette stroked the detective's back, trying to calm her down. - But we can't waste time with bad thoughts like Kara is having right now. We need to get to work as soon as possible.

- Yeah, you're right. - Alex got up from her seat. - I'll round up everyone, Winn, Brainy, call John. You go find a lawyer.

- I will. I'll get right on it. - Lena was on her way out of the office, but Danvers called out to her.

- Lena... Thank you.

The brunette nodded to the detective and walked out the door.

**********

Kara was led into an office where a dark-haired girl sat at a desk writing some papers.

- Take off the handcuffs, we won't need them. - said the girl and pointed to the chair across from her. - Detective Danvers, have a seat.

The men who had brought the blonde in removed her handcuffs and walked out the door. Kara walked over to the desk and sat down in the indicated seat.

- My name is Andrea Rojas, I'm in charge of your case. - The dark-haired girl introduced herself. - Have you been given the materials to read? Do you know what you're being charged with?

- Something I didn't do. - Kara replied with a frown.

- That remains to be seen. - Andrea leaned back in her chair and crossed her arms over her chest. - There is evidence against you. Witness statements, camera footage, how do you comment on that?

- Are you sure the witnesses are telling the truth? - The blonde stared at the girl across from her, no one ruled out the possibility that Lex hadn't bribed her, too. - And what's on the tapes? Am I going to be shown them?

Andrea opened her laptop and found the file she was looking for. She turned on the video and turned the screen toward the blonde.

It clearly showed Danvers handing over a large bag, from which she then takes out briquettes of white powder. She then receives a large sum of money in return and quickly walks away from the camera's view.

- That didn't happen! - exclaimed the blonde.

Andrea switched on another file, the audio of the detective's conversation with an unknown person sounded from the speakers.

- What's up with the new shipment? When will there be deliveries? - Kara's voice came through.

- Everything will be ready soon. But we have a problem. We've gotten the attention of the police, something has to be done about it. - said the unsub.

- Have you forgotten where I work? I'll take care of it. Get back to production, we've got a serious buyer. Last batch that killed that kid, we need the same thing, just not as strong. Call me when it's ready. - the blonde hung up and the audio recording stopped.

- What new shipment were you talking about? - Andrea turned off her laptop and took out some papers and started writing.

- I don't have a clue. - Kara couldn't believe what she was seeing and hearing, it just couldn't be true.

- I'm gonna get to the truth anyway. It's in your best interest to cooperate with the investigation. - Andrea warned. - We also have witnesses who say that it was you who organized the production and distribution of drugs.

- Bullshit. - looking her in the eye, the blonde said. - I didn't do any of this, I'm just a detective doing my job. Check the tapes for authenticity, I'm sure they're edited.

- We've already checked everything, the expert found no traces of editing. - Andrea got up from her seat and collected all the papers from the table. - We'll meet tomorrow, hopefully by then you'll come to your senses and cooperate. You'll get less years in prison for helping the investigation.

Andrea walked out the door, after which two men came after the blonde and handcuffed her and led her out of the room.

They walked down a shabby corridor, along the walls there were many doors where the prisoners were kept. When they reached the right cell, Kara was led inside and left alone. The small room had one old bed with a dirty mattress, a table, a chair and a toilet.

The blonde sat down on the bed and covered her face with her hands, she didn't know what was going on. Where had all this incomprehensible evidence, witnesses, recordings of a non-existent conversation come from. It looked like someone really wanted to set her up. And she had only one option as to who that might be.

Her musings were interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Kara looked up and saw a man enter, the door closing behind him, leaving them alone.

- Lex Luthor, hi, long time no see. I wouldn't say it's a pleasant meeting. - the blonde said hello.

- Detective Danvers. - Lex nodded at her and sat down in the chair across from the blonde.

- How did you get in here? - Kara was surprised that he'd been allowed into her cell, Lex wasn't an employee of the detention center, he didn't belong here.

- Money solves a lot of problems. - The bald man answered with a shrug.

- What do you want from me? - Kara asked. - Or did you come because your conscience got the better of you? You decided to punish yourself, to sit here, to think, to keep society away from you?

- I don't need that. I'm not a criminal. Unlike you... - Lex smirked.

- Since when is what you did not a crime? People are dying because of you, and you should rot in prison for the rest of your life! - the blonde exclaimed. - And the fact that you kidnapped your sister... Have you already forgotten about that?

- I didn't do anything like that. I was released for lack of evidence. But you… - he pointed his finger at the blonde. - There's plenty of evidence to prove your guilt. And the sister, that's why I'm here.

- What about Lena? Did you do something to her?! If a single hair falls from her head... - Kara was very afraid for her girlfriend and began to think up threats.

- Then what? You won't be able to make anything out of this... - he pointed with his hand at everything around them. - Place is amazing.

- I'll find a way. You're gonna regret this. - The blonde glared angrily at him, and from that look alone, it was clear she wasn't kidding.

- It's in your hands. - Lex looked at his fingernails bored, he wasn't afraid of her threats.

- What do you mean? - Kara asked with a frown.

- My sister decided she was the smartest and started her own investigation. She hired you an expensive lawyer, raised her connections, I don't like it. - Lex explained. - If you don't go to jail, I will, and I don't want that.

- And what do you want from me? - Kara leaned back, resting her back and the back of her head against the wall. - She's just a good boss who protects and believes in her subordinates. There's nothing I can do about that.

- Danvers, I'm well aware that you and Lena are fucking. Don't give me that circus. - Lex frowned. - You need to get her to stop interfering with the investigation. You need to stop resisting. There's already good evidence against you, and there's more to come. You're going down whether you like it or not.

- What else can I do? Should I take off my pants or walk on my hands? - Kara grinned. - Soon everyone will realize that this evidence is bullshit and you'll be behind bars. Whether you like it or not.

- You're forgetting that I'm free now. I could get angry. Lena's so defenseless. I wonder how you'll talk when something happens to her. She could get hit by a car, or a brick could fall on her head, or she could get raped in a dark alley. She might even accidentally fall out of her apartment window... What floor does she live on, the twentieth? Do I need to go on or do you understand the principle? - With a raised eyebrow, the bald man asked.

- I understand you. - The blonde took a deep breath. - I'll do everything. She won't get in the way anymore.

Lex smiled broadly and stood up from his seat.

- I'm glad we understand each other. I won't bother you anymore. - He knocked on the door, and then it opened and he was let out of the cell.

Kara lay back on the bed, the springs creaking and pressing unpleasantly into her back. She realized that just asking Lena to stop wouldn't be enough, the brunette wouldn't stop, so there was only one option, one very painful option for both of them. She curled up and gave in to her emotions. Tears came to her cheeks, there was no way she could stop them. She had no choice but to agree to Lex's terms. She couldn't afford to put Lena in danger. She simply wouldn't forgive herself if bad things happened to her. It tore at her heart, what she had to do was very hard.

But she couldn't do otherwise. She would push her girlfriend away, do anything to make Lena hate her. To save.

**********

After several tense days and sleepless nights, Lena managed to arrange a conversation with the blonde. The head of the detention center was an old friend of hers, so he allowed a few minutes to see her.

She was led through several security checkpoints, picked up any prohibited items, and brought to the door. Lena walked into the visiting cell and saw a blonde girl sitting at a table. Her hands were cuffed, her eyes tired and sad.

- You have ten minutes. - The isolation officer said and walked out the door.

Kara stared at the brunette, her heart breaking at the words she had to say to her now. She saw no other way out, what could she do here, sitting in a cell, there was no way she could protect her from Lex.

- Kara... Are you okay? Are they treating you okay? Is there anything you need me to bring you? - Lena hugged her girlfriend, ignoring the fact that the hug wasn't mutual, and sat down across from her.

- It's fine. - Kara answered coldly, afraid to look into the brunette's eyes.

- Honey, it's going to be okay, we're already doing our own investigation, Winn, Brainy, Alex, everyone's so worried... - Lena wanted to take the blonde's hands, but she pulled them away.

Lena looked at the blonde fearfully. - Kara?

- You'd better go. - Kara pulled herself together and frowned, looking straight into the brunette's eyes.

- Why? Don't worry, I don't believe everything they say. You couldn't have done such a thing. - Lena didn't understand why the detective was so detached.

- You're blind if you didn't see what was happening right in front of your face. - The blonde's heart sank at what she was saying.

- What are you talking about? - Lena asked. - Did they intimidate you? You can tell me anything.

- I wasn't intimidated! - Kara exclaimed. - Everything Lex says is true.

The brunette refused to believe it; she shook her head. - It's not true... It can't be true.

- It was very convenient. Investigating her own crime. - The blonde grinned pretentiously.

- What about us? - Lena whispered.

- What about us? - Kara didn't want to say it, it was the most painful part of this conversation, but she knew Lena wouldn't stop without it.

- Kara, I... I love you. - With watery eyes, the brunette said.

- Luthor, you're such an idiot. - Kara wanted so badly to hug her, to comfort her, to wipe away her tears and tell her how wonderful she was. - I don't love you and I never have.

- What was all that for? - Lena wiped her wet cheeks. - Why did you start dating me?

- What could be better than fucking the boss? - Kara wanted to make it as painful as possible, she needed to push the brunette away from her as much as possible. - Also, I could keep you very close, not make you realize more than I needed to.

Lena jumped up from her seat, making the chair fall over with a clatter. She walked over to the door and started knocking.

- Open up! We're done!

The door opened and she quickly left, not wanting to be in the same room with the detective anymore. She was in a lot of pain, she had never felt like this, used and abandoned.

Danvers stared after her. The detention officer picked her up and led her to her cell. She couldn't think of anything but green eyes full of pain and disappointment.

Chapter Text

Lena quickly ran out of the detention center and got into her car. She couldn't hold back the tears that came, she was in pain, Kara had broken her heart, made her feel used and discarded. She wanted to scream, but the lump in her throat prevented her from doing so. Lena had never felt like this, so devastated, her chest clenched painfully. How could she have lived so long in lies, hypocrisy, she had fallen in love, opened herself up to her, trusted her in everything, let her into her life. Danvers didn't care, she only cared about herself. To her, Lena was nothing but a plaything.

- Luthor, you're so stupid! - Remembering the blonde's words, in tears, Lena shouted to herself and pounded on the steering wheel. - Idiot!

After sitting like that for quite some time, it had already gotten dark outside. Wiping her wet eyes and cheeks, Lena started the car and drove home, stopping at the store on the way to pick up a bottle of whiskey. It was the perfect stress reliever, she needed to forget herself, kick Danvers out of her head. It was hard, every time she closed her eyes, even when she blinked, she pictured the blonde she loved so much and hated at the same time for everything she'd said to her.

She definitely needed a drink.

The brunette sat on the living room floor, not even bothering to grab a glass, she drank straight from her throat. In the empty apartment, her gaze lingered constantly on the blonde's belongings. On her shirts, t-shirts, sweatshirts, her scent was a perpetual reminder that just a couple days ago they had been together, in this very apartment. Kara had hugged her so much, kissed her, said words of love... She couldn't take it much longer and taking the now almost empty bottle and her phone, drove to the club. She needed to distract herself, to feel desirable.

The club was playing loud music, there were a lot of dancing people and smelled of alcohol. Lena went to the bar and called the bartender over to her.

- Tequila! Two... Better three. - asked the brunette and feeling the vibration of her phone, took it out and looked at the screen, where there were several unread texts from her friend.

Sam: Lena, where have you been all day?

Sam: Alex and I are worried.

Sam: Did you hear that Kara signed a confession?

Lena: I heard.

Sam: Where are you?

Sam: You want to talk about it?

The brunette didn't text anything else and put her phone away. She drank three shots of tequila and decided to go to the dance floor. There were a lot of men and women around, who were paying attention to her, trying to accidentally touch her while dancing, rubbing or touching her. Lena was not embarrassed by it, she had too much alcohol in her system, she wanted all this attention, she was pleased with how many people considered her attractive.

- You're a great dancer. - A young guy came up behind the brunette and put his hands on her waist, moving his hips to the beat of the music.

- Thank you. - Lena grinned and rubbed her ass against the front of his pants. - You're good, too.

- Want a drink? My treat, there are some great cocktails here... - the guy started, but the brunette interrupted him.

- Whiskey. - she turned around and looked into his blue eyes, which reminded him so much of her favorite eyes, the eyes of the girl who lied to her. - There's some great whiskey here.

The guy smirked and walked with her to the bar, walking behind her so he wouldn't lose sight of her ass. They sat down next to each other and ordered drinks. Lena didn't want to think about Kara anymore, about how she was now, what she was doing, what she was thinking. She just wanted to find comfort in someone's arms, tender words, pleasant touches, even if it was just for one night, but she would feel something other than pain. And whether she regretted it in the morning or not, she didn't care right now, she had too much alcohol in her.

- What's a girl like you doing alone in a club? - Sipping the amber liquid, the guy asked. - You don't look like you're into that kind of vacation.

- Who said I was alone? - Lena raised an eyebrow and sipped from her glass. - Now, I'm with you.

- Has anyone ever told you that you're very beautiful. - Moving closer to her ear, the blue-eyed man whispered hotly. - I like your hair, your eyes, your scent....

The brunette immediately remembered the memory of Kara whispering sweetly in her ear about how beautiful, kind, smart, loved she was... - Sincerely? - Lena hesitated, it hurt to realize that she had only heard those words from the lying blonde. - No one had said...

She pulled him closer by his shirt and dug her lips into his. She tasted the tartness of whiskey and the foul odor of cigarettes, it wasn't her best kiss, his lips weren't as soft as she was used to, but it was enough now.

Lena silently got up from the bar stool and taking the guy's hand, led him towards the restrooms. She knows a way to get the blonde out of her head. She just needs to find a replacement.

**********

After the brunette left, Kara couldn't come to her senses for a long time. She stared blankly at the ceiling, trying to think of good things, Lena was okay now, nothing was threatening her, she'd done what Lex had asked her to do. There were no more tears, it was a pointless waste of fluid that wouldn't help in any way.

After a while, her cell door opened and two escorts came in.

- The lawyer's already waiting. - The men cuffed her hands and led her to a meeting.

Kara guessed it might be the lawyer Lena had hired, the one Lex had told her about. It didn't make any sense anyway. She'd signed a confession this morning, she didn't need a defense at trial. She wouldn't fight back. For Lena's sake, for her safety, she was willing to go to prison.

The blonde was taken into the cell, where her lawyer was waiting for her. A pretty blonde woman was sitting at a table, looking at some papers.

- Take off the cuffs. My client will not assault me. - Looking at the blonde, the girl said.

The escort did as she asked and left, leaving them alone.

- Kara Danvers, I'm your attorney. My name is Cat Grant. - A woman introduced herself. - I'm from Lena Luthor.

Kara sat down across from her attorney. It's just like Lex said, Lena's really hustling.

- I need you to talk to me honestly and frankly, no secrets. I need to know every nuance. - Cat told the detective in a serious tone.

- I've already confessed everything. - Kara crossed her arms over her chest. - I did it all. Everything I've been accused of. Organized drug trafficking, tampering with evidence. It was me. Your help isn't required.

Cat frowned and studied Danvers eyes. She was an experienced lawyer, always sensing lies, able to spot them from afar. Only it was usually people who were guilty who lied, but this was a very different case.

- Nonsense! - the older woman objected. - You didn't do it.

Kara grinned and shook her head.

- Have you even familiarized yourself with the case file? There is evidence of my guilt. And I'm not denying anything. Why would I incriminate myself?

- Exactly. What's this all about? - Cat asked. - This evidence may convince everyone, but not me. I don't believe it. It's too good to be true.

- I can't help you. Believe it or not, that's not for you to decide. The judge will have the final say. - Kara didn't understand the point of this conversation, why all this incomprehensible argument.

- I promised Lena I'd figure it out. I don't care if you want to go to prison or not, I'll get to the truth. If you're innocent, I won't let you go to prison. - Cat gathered up her papers and stood up from her seat and walked towards the exit of the cell. - I'll be back in a couple days.

**********

Lena was already near the restrooms, leading the guy behind her, when suddenly she was stopped by someone's hand grabbing her forearm.

- Lena, stop! - it was Sam, with Alex standing next to her. - Let's go home.

- No, I'm not stopping. - The brunette wanted to swing away from her friend's hand, but Sam wouldn't let go. - Let go!

- You're drunk. You need to get some sleep. - Sam tried to push away the guy who had his arm around Lena's waist. - Get away, asshole.

- Why would I do that? The girl doesn't mind. - He smirked and looked hungrily at the brunette. - Now get out of my way, we're about to have some hot sex.

- Sam, get away. - Lena frowned. - My personal life is none of your business.

The brown-haired girl nodded to her girlfriend, signaling to deal with the annoying guy and took her friend's hand.

Alex led him out of the club to talk and Sam led the brunette to the women's restroom.

- How much have you had to drink? You don't feel nauseous? No dizziness? - The brown-hair girl led her friend to the sink and rinsed her face with cold water. - Why did you get so drunk?

- Sam... I... I love her so much. - tears spurted from her green eyes. - She... It's all I think about... I don't know what to do. You should have heard what she said to me...

- Lena... - Sam put her arms around her friend and stroked her back, letting her feel the friendly support. - Shh... It's okay.

- It's not okay. - Lena buried her face in her shoulder, letting the sobs shake her body. - She used me. She never loved me, all this time, she just lied. Lying to my face, pretending.

- And that's why you decided to fuck the first guy you saw in a public restroom at the club? - Sam frowned, she was glad she'd gotten there in time to stop her friend from doing something that would make her regret it later.

- I don't care who the distraction is. I just wish I didn't see Kara every time I closed my eyes. - The brunette began to calm down, her sobs less frequent.

- It doesn't work like that. You're not gonna stop picturing her. Let's go home, Alex and I will drive you.

- I can't be there. - Lena thought of all the blonde's things in her apartment. - Everything in my house reminds me of her.

- Let's go to our place. - Sam wiped her friend's wet face with dry wipes.

- I don't want to disturb you. - Lena blew her nose.

- It's okay. - The brown-haired girl didn't want to leave her friend alone. - Let's go.

Lena nodded and the girls headed for the exit.

- How did you find me? - The brunette remembered that she hadn't told her friend where she was.

- I was worried. I asked Alex to run your cell phone. - Sam confessed. - Just don't punish her for it.

When they went outside they were met by Alex, who had already scared the guy off by threatening to put him in a cell for a few hours. Lena got into the car and soon they were on their way towards home. The brunette sat with her friend in the back seat, huddled against her and rested her face against her shoulder, sobbing occasionally. Sam put her arm around the girl and stroked her back as she recounted the conversation she'd had with the blonde on their date at the detention center.

Once inside the apartment, Lena went straight to the guest bedroom, she was so tired, she just wanted to go to sleep so that today would turn out to be just a nightmare. As soon as her head touched the pillow and her eyes closed, the image of the blue-eyed blonde reappeared.

**********

Alex and Sam sat in the living room, silently digesting everything Lena had told them.

- It can't be Kara. - Danvers interrupted the silence.

- She's your sister. I know it's hard to believe the guilt of loved ones. - Sam began.

- No, you don't understand. - Alex interrupted her. - Kara's not that kind of person, she would never get involved with drugs. She loves Lena, it's obvious. Have you seen the way she looks at her?

- I did. - Sam exhaled deeply. - Then why would she do it?

- I don't know, but I'm sure she has a good reason. - Alex knew her sister well, even if Kara could fool Lena, she couldn't fool her. - We have to get Kara out, we have to continue our investigation.

- We're going to need Lena's help, I'll talk to her tomorrow, try to convince her not to give up, check things out for herself. - Sam said. - What evidence does the investigation have?

- A lot. Witness statements saying she was running things. There's also video and audio recordings. Her account statement showed up a few days ago, she received a large sum of money. Also, fingerprints at the drug factory. They don't even care that we rescued Lena and the fingerprints were left then. - Alex lists. - And most importantly, Kara signed a confession. The court won't even look into it, they'll just find her guilty.

- So we need to talk to the witnesses, we'll get them to confess and record the conversation. - Sam suggested. - We'll also ask Winn for help with the audio and video, you said he's a computer genius.

- All right, we'll do that. Then I'll talk to lawyer tomorrow, see what I can do about the confession. Kara could recant and say she was pressured. - Alex is speculating.

- We'll figure it out. - Sam took the girl's hand and stroked the back of her palm with her thumb. - I believe that everything will be fine.

- Thank you for helping and supporting me. - Alex kissed their joined hands. - I love you.

- I love you too. - Sam kissed the girl gently on the lips and hugged her.

- Shall we go to bed? - Danvers suggested it. - We have a lot to do tomorrow.

- Let's free your sister? - Sam smiled, she believed there was justice and Kara would be released.

- Let's free my sister. - Alex smiled back at her and, holding hands, the girls went off to the bedroom.

Chapter Text

The next day Lena woke up close to lunchtime. On the bedside table she noticed a bottle of water and some pills for her head, Sam always knew how to help her at times like this. Mentally thanking her friend, the brunette drank the painkillers and went into the bathroom to get herself back to human form. She'd clearly had too much alcohol last night.

- Good morning. - Lena came out into the living room and noticed her friend sitting on the couch.

- How are you feeling? - Sam asked worriedly. - Did you see the pills?

- Yes, thank you. - Lena sat down next to the brown-haired girl. - I'm fine, I've been better, but I'm fine. Where's Alex?

- She left for work. - Sam looked at the sad brunette, it hurt her to see her friend in such a state, completely devastated. - I wanted to talk to you...

The doorbell rang and interrupted their conversation, Sam ran to open it. A few moments later, Lillian entered the room.

- Mom? - the brunette looked surprised at the woman who entered.

- Darling, hi. - Lillian walked up to her daughter and enclosed her in a warm hug.

- What are you doing here? - Lena asked, surprised that the elder Luthor had come unannounced.

- I know what happened to Kara... - Lillian began.

- I don't want to talk about it. - the brunette interrupted her. - No more Kara in my life.

Lena was feeling the pain now, she didn't want to tug on those heart strings, to talk about the blonde.

- Lena, but Kara... - Lillian tried to say again, but her daughter wouldn't let her.

- No, mom. Kara just used me, I don't want to hear about her, not now.

- Hear me out! - Lillian looked her daughter in the eye. - It's not Kara's fault. It was Lex, he made her take the blame. He threatened her that he would hurt you.

- How do you know that? - Lena felt many emotions at once, disbelief, fear, hope, she wanted so badly to believe it.

- When Lex was released, I started watching him. I know what kind of man he is, you can expect anything from him. - Lillian says. - Turns out the people at the detention center don't care whether they take money from Lex or me. They showed me the security camera footage of your brother talking to Kara. You can see and hear everything.

- Did he threaten her? - Lena felt angry at her brother, how could he do this to her, how could he do this to Kara. - For me, Kara agreed to go to prison?

- Kara loves you, she will do anything to keep you safe. - Lillian gently stroked her daughter's hand. - She had to push you away so you wouldn't get in Lex's way, so you wouldn't try to prove her innocence.

- I'm such a fool, I just believed it. - Lena covered her face with her hands, she felt so stupid.

- You're not fool, darling. - Lillian comfortingly stroked her daughter's back. - You were in pain, you couldn't have expected Lex to do all this.

- Sorry to interrupt... - Sam came into the room. - Alex called, said Winn checked the evidence against Kara, the security footage. They're well edited, but he's got a special program to prove it's a fake.

Lena exhaled a sigh of relief, she was glad that Winn was able to figure it all out. They were on the right track and the chances of bringing Kara home were increasing.

- What to do about the witnesses? - Lena was determined to do whatever it took to help the blonde.

- Alex had an appointment today. She'll provoke her to tell the truth and record the conversation. We already thought of everything yesterday. - Sam responded.

- Yesterday? - The brunette was surprised.

- We didn't believe from the beginning that she could do something like that. 

**********

Alex arranged a meeting with one of Lex's employees, the one who did the chemical experiments and experimented on different drug formulations. She's the basis for Kara's guilt.

The meeting is to take place in a café, and Danvers has set up a camera aimed at their table. She'd also attached a discreet microphone she'd borrowed from Winn. She was determined to get justice for her sister, she would do anything for her.

- Hello, Miss Willis. - Alex said hello to the girl who approached.

- Hello, Detective Arias. You said you had something you wanted to discuss.

Alex decided not to say her real last name so as not to arouse suspicion.

- Yes, it's about your involvement in the illegal production of narcotics. The investigation needs to clarify some details. - Alex tried to speak in a professional tone, hiding the excitement in her voice.

- Of course, except I've already told you everything. Andrea Rojas, I think she's the one on the case now. I gave her everything in writing. - the girl called for a waiter and ordered a cup of coffee.

- I'm working with her. - Alex lied. - There's new information, I need to interview you again. It's nothing, just bureaucratic nuances, my superiors from above demand that everything should be clear, you know, it's a high-profile case.

- But hurry up, I have a lot of important things to do. - Ms. Willis looked seriously at the detective, waiting for further questions.

- You said you agreed to participate in the crime because your loved ones were being threatened. Is that true? - Alex took out a notebook and pen and prepared to write down her answers.

- Yes, I was told that if I didn't help, my parents might have an accident. - explained the girl. - That's why the investigation had no questions for me.

- Why you? - Alex asked.

- I am a chemist by education and work in a research center, I have good knowledge in this field.

- Who hired you? - Alex decided to move on to the question she was most interested in.

- I already answered, Kara Danvers hired me. - Ms. Willis replied with a frown.

- I've heard that before. - Alex stopped writing and crossed her arms over her chest. - Now, between you and me. I'm from Lex...

- You are? - the girl was surprised. - You too?

- Yes, you can be honest with me. - Alex tried to speak confidently, and judging by the girl's reaction, she was succeeding. - We need new evidence to prove Kara Danvers is guilty.

- But I've already done everything Lex asked me to do. - Ms. Willis said confused, surprisingly quick to believe Alex's words.

- Luthor says you haven't done enough. - Danvers replied calmly.

- Not enough?! - exclaimed the girl. - I didn't do enough?! I slandered a detective, framed an innocent man, and if anyone finds out about it, I could go to prison for slander. And that's not enough for him?

- Yeah, he wants more. - inside, Alex couldn't be happier, she'd done it, Ms. Willis had said too much, enough to invalidate her testimony.

- Tell him I won't be a part of this anymore. My words against Kara Danvers are enough to leave me alone. - At that, the girl got up from the table and left the cafe in a hurry.

By evening, Alex had collected all the evidence and arranged a meeting with Kat Grant. She couldn't wait to get her sister out of a place she shouldn't be.

- I knew she was innocent. - Kat smiled as she studied the materials Alex had brought with her.

- I hope it will help bring her home. - Alex believed that soon she would be able to see her sister, to hug her, to tell her how much she missed her, their evenings together, their sisterly moments.

- I'm sure Andrea will drop all her charges. Their evidence has been refuted, the rest of the evidence is irrelevant. - Kat exuded confidence in her words, she was an experienced attorney and very good at her job. - I'll go tomorrow and demand Kara's immediate release.

Saying goodbye to Ms. Grant, Alex drove home with peace of mind. She called Lena and cheered her up with good news, Kara might be home by tomorrow.

**********

- She's being released. - Lena heard Sr. Danvers voice when she answered the phone the next day. - Kara was being released.

Lena felt a strong sense of relief, she was so excited at the prospect of seeing the blonde again, but at the same time she dreaded this moment, that if Kara didn't want to deal with her anymore, after what Lex had done to her, it would be justified, Lena would understand.

- What? How? Exactly? When? - Lena started barraging her with questions.

- Kat Grant called. Kara's being released, and the investigation has no further questions for her. Now they're finishing signing some papers and she can be picked up soon. - Alex answered.

- I'll go get her right away. - Lena said quickly and hung up the phone without waiting for Danvers answer.

She was so excited, so eager to see, to hug, to kiss the blonde again. To cuddle up to her and never let her go again.

To tell her that she'd been a complete fool to believe her, to fall for the hurtful words, the cold stare.

To say that Kara was a complete fool for agreeing to Lex's terms, that she could stand up for herself, that his threats were ridiculous.

There was so much she wanted to say... Lena didn't like driving, even though she had a car, the brunette rarely drove it herself. This time she didn't wait for a driver or a cab, it was too slow. Lena decided to drive herself. Fifteen minutes later, she had already pulled up to the detention center and was waiting for the blonde to come out. She was filled with a sense of anticipation, in the last few days, she constantly imagined this moment, waiting for it, dreaming of their meeting. What would happen, would Kara be upset, angry, want to talk to x her at all.

Only in the brunette's wildest fantasies would Kara hug her back and tell her she still loved her.

It was because of Lena that Kara was on the verge of going to prison, it was because of Lena that Kara could ruin her life.

Determined to get rid of all those bad thoughts, the brunette climbed out of the car. Looking in front of her, she immediately froze in place, she saw the very girl she loved so much and almost lost so easily.

The blonde stepped out of the detention center and breathed a full breath. Even the air was different, smelling of freedom, of freshness, despite the road and the cars passing by.

Her gaze stopped on the green eyes, her favorite green eyes, staring at her so intently. Lena stood a few meters away and was afraid to approach, her look was tired, as if she hadn't slept all night.

- Lena... - Kara whispered with a shy smile, she couldn't believe that after all the words she had said, the brunette had come.

After a few moments, Lena quickly crossed the distance separating them and enclosed the blonde in the tightest hug she could make.

- I know everything. - Lena pulled the girl close to her and stroked her back.

Lena felt the detective's shoulders shake, she could hear sobs, Kara snuggled into her neck and cried. She was spilling out all her emotions of relief, she was so glad Lena was here, hugging her tightly, pulling her close. A silent promise to be there for her when she needed her so much.

- I was so scared. - Between sobs, Kara mumbled. - So scared...

- Shh... It's okay. I'm right here. - Lena herself couldn't hold back her tears, she held the girl so tightly to her, afraid to let go, what if it was all in her head, what if she let go of Kara and she disappeared. - I'm here.

- I love you so much. - The blonde looked with weeping blue eyes into watery green ones.

- I love you, too. - Lena pressed a kiss to the detective's lips, she wanted to convey all her feelings, all her love. - So much.

They would have stood there like that, hugging and kissing, but Alex came up and interrupted their moment.

- Luthor, you're not alone here, move over. - Alex pulled her sister into a tight hug.

- Alex. - Kara was squeezed by strong arms. - Don't strangle me.

- You scared us all so much. - Alex stroked her sister's back. - I missed you so much.

- I missed you too. - The blonde felt all the love surrounding her at that moment, she was pleased that two favorite people were with her now. - Love you, sis.

- Love you too. - Alex pulled away and looked into her eyes. - Even despite all your shenanigans.

Kara snorted and rolled her eyes. She missed her sister so much, even though she hadn't been gone that long without her.

- Shall we go home? - Taking the blonde's hand, Lena suggested.

- Let's go. - Kara kissed their joined hands and smiled.

- Just don't make any plans for tonight. - Alex warned. - Were going to celebrate your release. All your friends are coming, our mom wants to see you, Lillian's here. Everyone's very excited.

- There's still time till tonight. For now, I want to enjoy time with my girlfriend. - Kara kissed the brunette sweetly on the lips.

- Ugh, you can't do that in front of me. - Alex turned away as the girls added their tongues to the kiss. - I'll see you tonight.

The lovebirds pulled away from each other, Kara noticed her sister had already left and giggled. - She can be such a prude sometimes. All I'm doing is kissing my sweetheart.

Lena gave the girl one last peck on the cheek and led her to the car. They drove quickly towards home, they wanted to be alone with each other, in the warmth of embraces and the tenderness of kisses. They believed that the worst was over, that now they could exhale and enjoy the time together.

It was a few hours before the guests arrived. The girls arrived home, Kara did not leave the brunette, constantly hugging her, kissing her, she missed the warmth, caress, tenderness of touch. Lena was also enjoying their time alone together. She loved the embrace of this stunning girl. She wanted to show how wonderful and loved Kara was.

- Alex texted that Lex had been arrested. - snuggling up to the blonde on the living room couch, Lena said.

- He can't get away with it this time, he'll rot in prison. - Kara kissed the girl on the temple. - Let's not talk about him anymore.

- Then let's talk about us. - Lena pulled away and gave the blonde a serious look. - You didn't have to agree to Lex's terms.

- It's still Lex talk. - Kara took a deep breath.

- No, we're talking about you. - the brunette disagreed. - I can stand up for myself, I'm the head of the police department, you could have warned me, I would have drawn my weapon, I would have expected something bad.

- I didn't want to risk it. - The blonde took the girl's hand and intertwined their fingers. - If I had to choose again between pushing you away or trying to warn you, I wouldn't change my mind. I don't regret what I did, I was sure you were safe. Darling, I love you like I've never loved anyone before.

- I love you, too. - The brunette pulled the girl in a loving kiss, she could understand Kara even though she didn't like the way she acted.

Kara deepened the kiss. She ran her tongue along the brunette's lower lip, asking for entrance and moaned when Lena opened her mouth. Their tongues danced lazily, caressing each other, causing a pleasant sensation throughout her body.

- I've missed this so much. - Kara stroked the girl's thigh, too high to be decent.

- The guests will be here soon. Mmm... - Lena moaned as the blonde bit her bottom lip.

- We still have time. - Kara began kissing her pale neck. - I'm going to shower, wait for me in the bedroom.

Kara kissed the girl's soft lips one last time and ran to the bathroom. She wanted to wash away all traces of her imprisonment in the cell as soon as possible. To feel truly clean.

Lena went to the bedroom and started looking for a nice set of lingerie. Black translucent panties and a bra that emphasized her full breasts so well. She had just had time to put on the red lipstick Kara loved when she heard the door to the room open.

- You're so fast. - Lena smirked, examining the girl standing before her, wrapped in a single towel, drops of water covering the strong muscles of her shoulders and arms, the blonde's gaze hungry and full of desire. - Come here.

- You're so beautiful. - Kara walked over to the brunette and stroked her cheek.

Lena kissed the detective on the lips and ran her hands over her strong shoulders, squeezing the hard muscles. She threw back the towel and, taking the girl by the hand, led her to the bed.

- I want you to feel how much I love you. - Lena sat the blonde down on the edge of the bed and knelt on the floor between her legs.

Kara leaned back on her elbows and watched mesmerized as the brunette kissed the well-defined abs and circled each curve of muscle with her hot tongue. Her cock was already painfully aroused, a bead of pre-ejaculate forming at the tip, making the brunette want to taste it. The blonde moaned as Lena licked up that droplet and kissed the head, leaving a red lipstick mark.

- I feel like I won't last much longer. You're so sexy. - Kara could feel the pressure building, she was already close, even though Lena hadn't had time to do anything yet.

- I love the way I act on you. - The brunette ran her tongue from the base to the head and took the cock in her mouth and began to plunge it deeper.

- Look at me. - Gathering her dark hair into a fist, the blonde asked. - I want you to look into my eyes when you suck me.

Lena did as the blonde asked, the look in her blue eyes sending a pulsation right between her legs, the accumulated moisture in her panties and the clitoris demanding attention signaled extreme arousal. The brunette started at a slow pace, gradually speeding up and trying to take more and more length with each bob of her head.

- Yes... Baby... Mmm... - the blonde moaned when Lena lowered herself to the end and stuck out her tongue and paid attention to her testicles.

When the air became short, the brunette pulled away and replaced her mouth with her hand.

- I'm going to cum... - the blonde warned.

Lena took the head in her mouth, caressing the frenulum with her tongue, and began to jerk faster, feeling the cock start to throb. After a few moments, she felt warm cum splashing on her tongue. 

- Lenaa! Ahhh... - Kara looked at her girlfriend, who pulled back and showed her white colored tongue, then defiantly swallowed everything the blonde gave her. 

- I like the taste of you so much. - Lena gently kissed the glans and climbed onto the bed, closer to the detective. 

- You always make me cum so fast... Do you know how amazing you are? - The blonde asked and kissed the girl on her sweet lips. 

- I know. - Lena smirked. - Now, I want you to take me from behind. 

Kara undid the bra still on the brunette and took her breasts in her hands, feeling their pleasant weight. She stroked the hard nipples and leaned over to take them in her mouth. Lena was so horny, she didn't need foreplay, she was already very wet. 

- If you don't come inside me right now, you can look for a new job. - The brunette said threateningly and pulled off her already completely soaked panties. 

Lena got on her knees and leaned on her elbows and looked back at the blonde. 

- So impatient... - Kara smiled. 

- Danvers, you have exactly one second... Aah! - the brunette moaned as Kara positioned herself behind her, grasped her pale waist and entered her eager center.

Kara immediately picked up a quick pace, causing Luthor to moan and squirm loudly. 

- Kara! I'm so close... - Lena felt her orgasm approaching, in this position, at this angle, the blonde's cock was rubbing so deliciously against all the right places in her vagina. - Don't stop... Yaaah!

It didn't take the brunette long, she cummed with a loud moan, squeezing her cock with her insides and causing the blonde to follow, staining her vagina white. 

The heavy breathing of both girls recovering could be heard in the room. Kara lay down next to the brunette and pulled her closer to her. Lena put her arms around the blonde's waist and rested her head on her chest. 

- I love you. - Kara broke the silence. - You are so precious to me. I'm so lucky to have you, so beautiful, smart, kind, gentle...

- Danvers, after sex you become so romantic. - The brunette smiled and kissed the girl's neck. 

- Not true! - Kara exclaimed. - I'm always romantic, sex has nothing to do with it. 

Lena grinned, she reluctantly pulled away from the girl and got up from the bed. - We should already shower and get ready for the guests to come. 

- I'll come with you. - The blonde quickly jumped up from her seat and followed her girlfriend, she didn't want to leave her even for a couple of minutes.

They were able to get out of the shower only after several amazing orgasms. There was no time left before the guests arrived. Quickly dressing and having time to order food delivery, the girls heard the doorbell ringing.  

**********

Alex, Sam and Ruby were the first to arrive. The girls said hello, Alex pulled her sister into a bear hug.

- Alex, we've already hugged today. - Grumbled the blonde.

- Never mind, I'll decide for myself how many times to hug you. - Alex enjoyed a little more the warmth of her sister's body, whom she missed so much, and pulled away.

- Kara, it's really good to see you out. - Sam also hugged the younger Danvers.

- And you must be Ruby? - Kara smiled at the teenager and held out her hand for a handshake. - I'm Kara.

- Yeah, I'm Ruby. - The girl shook her hand. - Alex has been telling me about you.

- Good things, I hope? - Kara raised an eyebrow and glanced at her sister.

- She said you were kind and funny and sweet. - Ruby told her. - She also said you peed your pants when you were watching a horror movie together.

- Alex! - Kara exclaimed with a frown. - That was between us!

The girls giggled at the detective's antics, Kara felt her cheeks redden with embarrassment.

- That was when we were kids! - Looking at the laughing girls, Kara exclaimed. - There was a scary moment there!

- Sweetie, you don't need to justify yourself, everyone has had similar incidents. - smiling, Lena took the girl's hand.

- I haven't. - Ruby frowned. - And neither did mom.

- Neither did I. - Alex smiled.

- Babe? - Kara raised an eyebrow and looked at her girlfriend.

- That hasn't happened to me either. - Lena shrugged her shoulders. - Don't worry, if anything, we'll buy you a diaper.

Kara shook her head at the girls' laughter and smiled as well.

- Come on in, the food delivery will be here soon. - Kara escorted them into the living room.

A few minutes later the doorbell rang, Kara and Lena ran to open it. It turned out to be Eliza and Lillian. Eliza immediately squeezed her adopted daughter in a motherly hug, she was so happy to see her.

- You scared me so much. - Eliza stroked her daughter's back and kissed her temple. - Don't ever do that again.

- I'm sorry... - Kara savored the warmth of her foster mother's body.

After standing like that for a moment longer, Eliza reluctantly let go of the blonde and began to hug Lena.

- Mom, do you know Eliza? - Lena was surprised to see the two women together.

- We met a while ago. - Lillian also hugged first her daughter and then Kara.

- Congratulations on your release. We were so worried. - Lillian smiled at the detective.

Next came Brainy and trainee Nia, as it turned out they had recently started dating and looked like a very handsome couple together. Last to arrive was the ever lonely Winn, who brought a couple bottles of wine.

Kara felt very happy to be in the company of close friends and family. Warm glances, funny stories, various board games, all this gave a feeling of family, of safety. She sat next to her girlfriend, held her hand, kissed and hugged her periodically. It was the best moment I've had in a while.

- When should I expect grandchildren? - Eliza suddenly asked, causing the blonde to choke on a piece of pizza.

That question caused everyone to stop talking and look at them.

- Mom, don't you think you're rushing things? - Alex said, looking at her sister's confused look.

- Why? They literally don't take their hands off each other all evening. - Eliza shrugged.

- It's too early for us to think about it. - Lena said calmly, assessing her girlfriend's reaction.

- Yeah, Lena's right. - Kara looked at the brunette, she didn't know how she felt about the subject of children, whether she wanted them at all.

- Anyway, I would be very happy to babysit your children. - Lillian said, smiling.

Kara couldn't stop thinking about the words her foster mother had said for the rest of the evening. She had never before hoped to meet a person with whom she could think about starting a family of her own. But now there was Lena, who gave her so many happy moments, who made the blonde girl break down all her walls, open her heart. She loved this girl and could not imagine life without her. She realized that she wanted it all with her, a family, children.

**********

The girls were in the bedroom getting ready for bed. After changing into their pajamas, they climbed under the covers, Lena put her arm around the blonde's waist and snuggled against her side, feeling warm and comfortable.

- Is something bothering you? - Lena noticed how the detective frowned at the ceiling, a wrinkle that always appeared if the girl was worried about something.

- I wanted to talk to you. - said the blonde. - About what Eliza said.

- Darling, if you don't want to have children... - the brunette began, but she was interrupted by Kara.

- I do. - The blonde looked into her girlfriend's eyes. - Only if you want to... Do you want to? I realize we haven't been together long enough to think about kids.

- I'd be happy to have a child with you. - the brunette smiled. - Maybe not now, but in the future... Yes, I really want to.

- I'm glad we figured it out right away. - Kara kissed the girl on the temple. - I love you and I want a future with you.

- I love you, too. - The brunette kissed the detective gently on the lips.

Falling asleep, the blonde felt that with this girl was ready for anything. The promise of a future together gave her hope for a wonderful family time. Before, she never thought she could be happy with one person, with children, maybe even a dog. She could never have imagined such a thing, love and affection for one person. But now, she loved sharing her life with only one particular brunette with green eyes, giving her love and joy. She felt she had found what she had been missing for so long. She had found Lena, the girl she loved so much.

Chapter Text

Lex had recently been put on trial for organizing drug trafficking, kidnapping the head of the police department, forcing witnesses to give false testimony, bribery, and more, and was sentenced to life in a high-security penal colony. Lena was worried to the last that his lawyers would be able to prove his innocence and that he would be released. But all her worries were not justified.

Today was the anniversary of their relationship, exactly one year ago, the girls began dating. A lot had happened in that time, good and bad, but their love for each other had only grown and grown.

Kara left work early, trying to make it inconspicuous to her boss. She ordered delivery from Lena's favorite restaurant, set the table, lit candles, dimmed the lights, created a romantic atmosphere. She wanted this evening to be perfect.

Taking a small velvet box out of her pants pocket, the girl took a deep breath.

- Danvers, pull yourself together, you can do this. - Kara said to herself as she looked at the beautiful engagement ring. - You love her, she loves you, everything will be okay.

She has been thinking about it for some time now. She feels that she is ready for this step, but now she is tormented by doubts, what if Lena does not agree. They have already discussed this topic, but it was a long time ago and seemed so distant, unattainable, but now it is really happening, Kara will propose. But maybe during this time Lena changed her mind, rethought their relationship, changed her mind, these thoughts kept the blonde so worried.

Hearing the sound of the front door opening, Kara quickly hid the box in her pocket and went to meet the brunette.

- You ran away from work after all. - Lena smiled when, instead of answering, the detective pulled her in for a sweet kiss.

- Yes, and I'm not the least bit ashamed of it. - The blonde took her girlfriend hand and led her to the table.

Even after a year, the brunette still felt like she had butterflies fluttering in her stomach. Kara was a beautiful girlfriend, in all this time, Lena was the happiest she had been with her, feeling wanted and so loved. This evening was important to her not only as a celebration of the anniversary of their relationship, the brunette had also prepared something for the detective that would completely change their lives. She had recently found out she was pregnant.

She didn't know how Kara would feel about it, even though they had discussed having children, the blonde could change her mind. Maybe it was too soon for them and they should wait for now, maybe Kara wasn't ready for that kind of responsibility. All these thoughts had been on her mind for days now, ever since she'd found out she was pregnant.

The girls sat down at the table. Kara looked worried, the wrinkle between her eyebrows giving away her anxiety.

- Darling, is something wrong? - The brunette placed her palm on the detective's nervously drumming fingers on the table.

- No... Yes... - Kara took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts.

- You're scaring me. - Lena looked the blonde in the eye.

- I've been thinking about our relationship for some time now. - The blonde began nervously. - I feel like we've gotten to the point where we should change something...

- Are you breaking up with me? - The brunette interrupted in a shaky voice. - I thought we were doing well... Did I do something wrong?

- No, of course not! - Kara exclaimed fearfully. - Lena, my love, you are the most amazing, the best. That's not what I meant to say.

Kara pulled a box from her pocket and opened it and showed it to the brunette.

- Will you be my wife?

Lena stared in shock, first at the ring, then at the blonde. She nodded vigorously and stood up from her seat and rushed to hug the detective tightly.

- Does that mean yes? - Kara smiled as the brunette gave a loud shriek.

- Yes, yes, of course it does. - Lena kissed the blonde's forehead, cheeks, and finally her lips. - Of course I'll be your wife!

- I love you. - The blonde looked into the beautiful green eyes, she was so happy that this girl agreed.

- I love you too. - Lena took the blonde's hand. - I have something to tell you too.

- What is it?

Lena put the blonde's hand on her stomach.

- We're going to have a baby soon. - Lena whispered. - I'm pregnant.

Kara froze in place at those words. She couldn't believe it, Lena was pregnant, she was carrying their baby, they were about to become parents.

- Aren't you excited? - Lena asked disappointed. - Kara?

The blonde's eyes water, she smiled and looked the girl in the eye. - I'm happy.

It was the best gift she had ever received.

- Lena! We're having a baby! - Kara shrieked and wrapped Luthor in a hug.

- Darling, I love you so much and I'm sure the baby loves you too. - The brunette wrapped her arms around her girlfriend, clinging tightly to her strong body.

- I love you too. - Kara smiled and kissed the brunette sweetly on the lips.

Lena felt this love, she knew they had a beautiful future together ahead of them. Before, she never thought she was worthy of all this, but with Kara, she felt special. She wanted to spend the rest of her life with this girl, to share all the beautiful moments with her, to enjoy every day. They might have some quarrels and misunderstandings in the future as well, but they would surely cope with everything that came their way in married life. Right now, being in a warm embrace, she knew one thing for sure, their love will only grow and grow stronger in the future. She loves Kara, and Kara loves her back.

Together, they are stronger and can overcome all odds.
