Karamel: Complicated {Part One}

47 • I love you

As Kara started to wake up, her hearing returned before she opened her eyes. "Are you sure this will work?" Said a familiar male voice.
"Of course they wouldn't risk hurting them. It will work." Snapped an equally familiar female voice.

Kara opened her eyes, she attempted to move but was tied to a chair. She looked up and Lillian was standing in front of her.

"Ah, sleeping beauty is awake." Said Lillian.
"You. I should have know you were behind this." Snapped Kara.
"Oh you have no idea. Me and Cadmus have been behind many of the past years events, the threat on the presidents life, Livewire getting lose, the robber with a lead knife that left your scard, Jeremiah luring you and Mon-el here."

"What have you done with Mon-el?!"
"After you little argument with him, it was very easy to convince him to let me sleep on on his sofa and drug him in his sleep." Explained Jeremiah.
"Yes, it's been interesting to see how he reacts to kryptonite." Said Lillian.
"You BITCH!" Kara screamed bolting forwards, straining against her restraints.

"Oh don't worry, I have something equally as fun planed for you too. Take her to his cell." Lillian said, waving a hand towards the guards behind Kara. They undid her restraints, but replaced them with power-dampener cuffs and gripped her by the arms, dragging her out off the room.

Kara was dragged down a long corridor, passing many locked doors. They suddenly stopped and one of them hauled open a door. The other took off her cuffs, then threw Kara in and slammed the door shut.

It took Kara a moment before her eyes could adjust to the room lit by one dim light. She looked around the small cell and muffled a cry. Kara could tell it was him immediately, Mon-el lying on the floor, eyes shut, his skin in between pale and its normal colour but his chest was moving, meaning he was still alive. Kara thanked Rao he still was.

She shuffled over to him, her hand shaking as she cupped the side of his face. She looked him over to make sure there was no major injuries or anything. All she noticed was quite a few cuts on his arms and a few on the side of his face, they must of been from Kryptonite, how much had they tortured him is the short time he'd been there?

"Mon-el?" She whispered. "Please wake up. I'm so sorry, this is all my fault." Tears started to fall, causing Kara to choke on her words.

Mon-el felt so weak he wasn't sure if he could open his eyes but he felt someone stroking his hair and could hear them crying. "Kara?" He softly whispered, he hoped it was her. He slowly opened his eyes and Kara's blue eyes stared down in to his, she was sitting with her back against the wall with his head resting on her lap.

"Mon-el? H-how are you? Are you ok?" She said softly.
"Apart from being weak from the kryptonite, I'm ok."
"That's good to hear. When I first saw you I was so scared." Her tears started to slow down.
"Hey, I'm here, I'm ok." He said, then reaching over and gently gripped her hand.
"But you wouldn't be here if it weren't for me. It's my fault you're hurt." Kara quietly said.
"No, no it isn't, why would you say that?"
"Because if we hadn't argued last night, you wouldn't of been left alone and you wouldn't of been kidnapped."

Mon-el took a deep breath. "It really happened then? Jeremiah really did it?"
"I'm sorry Mon. Believe me I never imagined he'd actually do something. I'm sorry about about our argument, I should of talked to you afterwards, instead of making that comment at dinner."
"Kara... I'm sorry too. I regret what I said, I never should of said that, I never should of shouted at you... I care about you so much Kara that I don't want to lose you over this."

Kara's lip wobbled, she was so close to tears again. "You'll never lose me." She said, leaning down and kissing him. She pulled away slightly and smiled at him. Mon-el placed a hand on the side of her face and pulled her forehead against his. "Kara I love you."
"I love you too."

Kara pulled away. "We need to get out of here. They are planning something and it involves both of us."
"I'm guessing our powers don't work in this cell?" Asked Mon-el.
"No, I tried but I think there is some power dampener technology in the walls or something like that, there was a similar thing in the cuffs they used on me."

"But I'm sure everyone will be working to find us." Said Mon-el.
"Yeah I hope so... wait Winn's a genius!" Kara started to fiddle with the buttons on her superhero suit.
"What is it?" Mon-el asked.
"Do you remember that Winn made some adjustments to my suit? He added a distress beacon in a button! But I can't remember which one... ah ha!" Kara said, pressing down on one of the buttons of her suit.
"I hope that works." Said Mon-el.
