Karamel: Complicated {Part One}

19 • Oh my god

Mon-el woke up, he looked around at his clock, it read 2:13 am. "That's werid." He thought. "Why'd I wake up?"

He then felt the duvet move, he looked over and saw Kara asleep, but she was breathing heavily and moving around.

"Kara?" He said, shaking her shoulder. She bolted up, gasping for air.
"Hey, you alright?" He asked putting a arm round her shoulders, bring her in for a hug.

She was still breathing heavy. "I-I had a dream... I was back on D-Daxam. It was horrible, I-" She buried her head in his shoulder.

"It's alright, you don't have to tell me." He said and kissed her head. "You just had a bad dream. But I'm here for you and I always will be no matter what."
"You really mean that?" She questioned, looking up at him.
"Of course I do."

They sat there for awhile, then laid back down, with Kara curled up in Mon-el's arms. He held her close and she slowly relaxed, eventually falling back to sleep. Closely followed by Mon-el doing the same.

*That morning at the DEO."

Mon-el walked into the training room, Kara was already in there, warming up.

"Hey, you ready to spar?" He asked. She flinched.
"Yes, you made me jump." She said laughing. "Do you need to wear your suit?" She questioned.
"Yes." He said sarcastically. "I need to practice fighting in it."
"Fine, lets go then."

He walked over and stood opposite her. She ran at him but he quickly dodged her. She turned round tried again, taking him by surprise, grabbing him and slamming him against the wall.

He smiled. "You're getting good." She smiled back. But Mon-el took this opportunity and grabbed her and swung round, swapping places.

"Hey!" Kara complained.
"Should pay more attention." She kicked him, pushing him back into the middle of the room.
"You should pay attention." She said, laughing.
"Very funny." Mon-el replied, sarcastically.

She walked over to him. Mon-el threw a punch at her, she ducked and kicked at his leg. He fell onto his back.
"Ok, ok you win." Mon-el said, admitting defeat.

"Here..." She reached out her hand, offering to help him up. She didn't expect him to grab her hand and pull her down with him. They ended up laying on the floor, laughing.

Mon-el sat up. "I didn't think training could be this much fun."
"Me neither." Kara stood up and went over and took a drink out of her water bottle.
"You did good today."
"Thanks." She replied.

Kara took her jacket off, she was wearing a DEO branded vest on underneath. Mon-el looked over and admired her beauty from a distance. But then he noticed that she had a few scares across her back and shoulders.

"Kara, where'd you get those scares from?"
"Hm?" She said turning round.
"Those scares on your back."
"Oh, um..." She hesitated, putting her hands behind her back. "I got them on Daxam, you know I told you my father had me trained to fight? Even though I was the princess they weren't scared to be rough on me. Um-"Kara was interrupted by alarms going off.

"That's not good." Mon-el said running towards the door, Kara following closely behind.

Mon-el and Kara rushed over to the control room of the DEO, Alex, John and Winn were already there.

"What's going on?" Asked Kara. Winn looked up from his computer, a concerned look on his face.
"A ship just entered earth's orbit."
"Do we know who it is?" Asked John.
"No, all attempted contact has resulted in nothing. I'm trying to get a visual up."

"How did we not know about this?" John questioned.
"Good question, I have no idea. They could just have a really good cloaking device." Winn answered.

Winn typed away. "And... there!" Winn turned in his chair and pointed towards the screen. An image of a space ship appeared.

"I don't recognise that ship." Said Alex.
"Oh my god." Gasped Kara.
"What is it?" Asked Mon-el. Kara looked over to him, a scared look on her face.

"That's a Daxam ship... a royal Daxam ship."
