Eliza:
There was a knock on my door. Kara x-rayed through and it was Eliza. I opened the door in my suit. "Hi Mrs. Danvers'' I said and let her in. "Oh, is this him?" Eliza asked Kara, Kara nodded and Eliza hugged me. "Hi Jason, and please call me Eliza'' She said "Okay" I agreed. I changed out of my suit and we visited for a while. Eliza basically sizing me up while Kara cooked. I showed Eliza my powers, she was interested in them. Eventually everyone else arrived and Kara finished making dinner. I helped her bring all the food to the table and we sat down. "So, we have this tradition where we go around the table and say what we're thankful for" Kara said "I'll start, I'm thankful for friends and family" Alex was next "I am thankful for Maggie and everyone in my life that I can call a friend" Maggie said basically the same thing. John went next "I'm thankful that even though I lost my real family, I can call all of you guys that" Last was Eliza "I'm thankful that both of my daughters have found love and are happy." Last was me "I'm thankful that Kara gave me a home and a whole bunch of new friends when I moved here. And I'm thankful that she's my girlfriend" I looked at Kara and smiled.
We ate and talked through lunch. Everyone trickled out but Eliza since she was staying the night. John went back to the DEO and Alex and Maggie went to their place. "I'll be right back, I need to go do something in my room" I said and I went to go tidy up my room. I wanted to have it finished in case Eliza wanted to go in there. I don't know why she would but just in case. I came back out and sat on the ground, opposite the couch where Kara and Eliza were. Eliza started talking to me. I'm assuming she's gonna ask about the story I've told many times
"So Jason, what brought you to National City?"
"I woke up from my coma, and the people I thought I knew had changed. My ex cheated on me, she was about the only one I knew there, so I moved here for a fresh start. I met Kara and things went from there."
"Coma? How'd you get put in that?"
"When the particle accelerator exploded I got struck by lighting, it put me in a nine month coma and when I woke up I could run faster than the speed of light"
"That's fascinating so what actually caused it do you know?"
"Dark matter from the particle accelerator created the lightning that struck me. I knocked me into a bunch of chemicals that mixed with the dark matter."
"So were you a scientist?"
"I could have been, but I wanted to be a detective, I was in the CSI lab going over some forensics and that's where I was struck."
"Interesting, so how did you meet Kara?"
"I was at Catco, for an interview, Kara talked to me a bit and then later called me to tell me I got the job. She had mentioned earlier that she was looking for a roommate, since I was in a hotel, I invited her to dinner so she could get to know me, see if I'd be a good roommate. It went good and I moved in. And we just hung out. I found out she was Supergirl. Kara Is not good at hiding it by the way. And then eventually we became...more, than friends."
"Obviously"
"Yeah"
"So Jason, why aren't you spending Thanksgiving with your family?"I cringed a little and looked down at my hands.
"I uh, I cut ties with my family"
"Why is that?"
"I'd rather not get into it"We talked for a bit more and watched TV. Eventually Eliza was ready for bed. "You can have my bed Eliza, I'll take the couch" I offered "Thank you Jason" Eliza said and I showed her to my room. Inside Eliza set her bag down "I'm gonna need to come in here, every so often to get clothes." I said "Okay," Eliza said, I turned to step out and she grabbed my arm
"Jason, if you hurt Kara-"
"I wouldn't"
"If you do, I will hurt you, physically. And Alex will assist me"
"I would die for your daughter. I'd rather cut my wrists and bleed out than see a single tear shed from Kara's eye. I risked my life to save hers, and I would do it again, over and over without a second thought. That is how much I love Kara"Eliza let me go and I walked out. I sat on the couch with Kara and we talked
"Please tell me you weren't listening in on that"
"Maybe"
"I meant every word I said"
"I know, thank you. I feel the same way"
"You don't have to"
"I do"I kissed Kara. Her lips were the sweetest I've ever tasted. They tasted like cherries
"I love you"
"I love you too"
"Food was very good"
"Thank you, Danvers family recipes"
"Interesting, so, question"I put on a song, I didn't tell Kara but I installed speakers in her apartment. I played "Like I'm gonna lose you" by Megan Trainor. "May I have this dance?" I asked "Why you may" Kara responded. We walked to the middle of the open floor. I put my hands on Kara's waist. Kara's hands went to my neck. We danced in silence, enjoying the moment. When the chorus came along I started singing since I knew Kara liked it when I did
"So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
In the blink of an eye
Just a whisper of smoke
You could lose everything
The truth is you never know
So I'll kiss you longer, baby
Any chance that I get
I'll make the most of the minutes
And love with no regrets
Let's take our time to say what we want
Use what we got before it's all gone
'Cause no, we're not promised tomorrow
So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you (oh, like I'm gonna lose you)
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you.
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you"The song finished and Kara hugged me, another song taking its place. It was Can't help falling in love with you by Elvis. We kept dancing, singing and more dancing. Before we realized, it was far too late into the night.
"Is it really that time?"
"I guess so my scarlet speedster"
"So off to bed, girl of steel?"
"Please"
