And then she fell

She was still confused,really really confused.How is it that she never realized? Was she THAT bad with feelings?

No,no it couldn't be,se was like an expert when it came to detect other people feelings!That was part of her success in her job.But for another part,she never knew about Alex's attraction for women,so.

Not that she was in crisis with her sexuality if course.In Krypton people didn't really mind this kind of things,so.
Now that Kara thinks about it,she only noticed her crushes on men.Was it Earth society tendency to have a compulsory heterosexuality affected her?

Her head was working in circles,unfocused.So unfocoused that it wasn't until she hit a hoarding and heard it fall that she got out of it.

Ups,that was the second this week.Alex wasn't going to be happy about it and she didnt want to cover a story  with "Supergirl needs a drivers license" cover.

Ugh,she hated that this was taking all her focus and despised how every time she thought about the CEO that Chloe appeared next to her with an evil smile.After the little stunt in the Burger Belly,Kara saw through al of her intentions and it was definitely clear that her intention with Lena were beyond "friendly".

Where was she going again? She wanted to go home but apparently her body decided to go to CatCo.Maybe it was a good opportunity to talk with Miss Grant,maybe she could help her again with her surprisingly emotionally deep advices.

Kara landed on Cat Grants balcony with a small thud,knowing the woman she would be in her office,nose deep in some important work.And she was indeed.

With a nervous hand Kara knocks the glass two times,that being enough for the other blonde to heat her.Surprise paints her face for a moment,a mischievous glint that never left shone white strength in her eyes.With an elegant movement Cat opened the glass door and approached her like a cat does to its the prey.

Even though Kara was the most strongest person in the Earth she couldn't deny being a little intimidated by the CEO.
-What the wind brings...here to give an exclusive Supergirl?Because if not,I have to go and scream this useless accountants I have-Kara smiles,Cat always has this peculiar way to cheer her up.

-Not really I just-She stopped for a moment.This was ridiculous ,only bothering the busy woman for a new-found crush-Sorry,this was uh-As sensing her change,Cat looked at her in another way.Her eyes changed the mischievous for the almos warm glint.A look that resembled the times when she gave advice to Kara Danvers.

-It's fine really.You are the only thing that has happened today worth of my attention-With a smirk she gave her back to Kara,heading to the outside of her office-Be here in a second-After that,Kara didn't need her super hearing to listen the ways that the woman made the entire floor scram.Well,nice to know even with being a kryptonian and all,the CEO will ALWAYS scare her.
In a matter of seconds Cat was next to her,insisting her to sit on the chair.With a nod Kara did so.

-Now,what has Supergirl weeping my office floor-She looked at her,almost doing the nervous gesture of playing with her glasses to realize she wasn't wearing any.-Well,I don't know...will this end in a "Supergirls confusing love life" story?-That seemed to spark more curiosity in Cat,and if she didn't knew the woman she certainly wouldn't be here.

-Not unless it's interesting enough-A second passed-Not if you don't give me your consent.I'm the CEO of the most popular newspaper,but not a monster....usually-Kara laughed and nodded,feeling a little relieved.

-Well, you know about were I come from.

-Only the surface-Cat answered

-Krypton,the planet were Superman arrived from before it disappeared-A humorless laugh went past her lips-That's what it means the name and idea of my planet,just some random place in universe.When Kal came here he was a baby,he had no memory's,no knowledge about our homeland and culture.But I do.The day I arrived here,he was already a grown up and didn't need a teenage girl to tell him about Krypton.So I continued with my life,a life were the mission of helping and teaching my baby cousin was over.-Kara took deep breaths-I adapted to this world.I learned to control my powers,to keep them at bay at any costs...to hide.I learned the language,the society,the costumes.Even if at one point I didn't knew who I was anymore.-Cat looked at her with no "pity",like other did,but with understanding,and that made her want to follow the story she didn't want to tell anyone.

-And at the end of the day,I'm afraid to never reveal my true self and to always have this showdown of doubt.I always kept at bay my feelings but I...don't think I can do that anymore.The problem is that I really don't know how.-Even if her voice was steady,her hand were shaking a little.Cat titled her head with intrigue,she always did that when she needed to process the thing around her the most efficient way.

-Well,us "humans"...we mostly relay on feelings.The problems that corrupt this world are always provocated for person that miscalculate those emotions and rely on selfish purposes.Here is the thing Supergirl,you aren't selfish.You could have just kept hiding in the shadows,living a normal life with a half well payed job-Kara laughed a little at that-Leave us fool humans fate in your cousins hands.But you didn't.And that is admirable really-The blonde stands up and reclines on her bad table,asking if she wanted anything which she declined politely.-I truly admire that.But if there's one thing you can learn from this world is selfishness.

Kara opened her mouth to answers but Cat didn't let her -And with selfishness I refer for you too dig in these feelings and stoping the need to hide them,even if it takes some time.We may not be that strong but we're not that fragile.-That actually made sense and some relief appeared in her chest-Now,who is the lucky one-She asked with a amused smile.Kara was definitely dumbfounded.

-What I- what no-A nervous laugh made her face heat up a little.Was that even possible?-Why it has to uh a be a lucky one that's just-

-Oh honey,you're like a clear glass.Now,don't be shy I'll try not to judge to hard-Yeah no,she was not ready to have a crush founded conversation with her boss.But she did help her.With a new found confidence,Kara left her chair.

-Well if I told you,you would probably find them in a matter of hours and then would find out who am I-She answers with a little grin,Cat rolled her eyes as she was heading the balcony,eyes fixated on the super.

-Oh you know it would be a matter of minutes-Kara laughed,preparing herself to leave,but not a second after her feet untouched the ground that Cat said

-I will find this woman,Supergirl-She said in a sing tune.

Kara almost went through the building.
