Stronger together

Chapter 28

After the conversation I had with Alex I felt so conflicted. Lena deserves so much better than what I have done and I would spend the rest of my life proving to her that. But on the other hand she makes me so happy. I haven't felt whole since I landed on earth. But with Lena I finally feel my heart is full. She truely completes me. I've never felt so whole when I'm with her. I keep thinking about it when we get back to Lena's place. She keeps quiet and lets me sort out my feeling with out pushing me. She is truely perfect in every way to me. Knowing she is my soul mate has been both the best thing and a curse. I feel like I have made her life worse and she made my so much better. I know it's the depression talking when I have these thoughts. But she should be happy. Not waiting for a train wreck like me. I know I shouldn't feel like this anymore and I can't explain why I do. I just don't want to let Lena down again . But what if I'm doing that by making her wait?

I'm trying to give Kara as much space as I can. I know she needs to work through the grief and pain she is feeling. I think she might have ptsd as well. But I don't want to push her. I go back to our place. I put all my gear away. I turn on the light. There is a note under my floor mat. I pick it up and read it.

"Luthor you and your bitch will be dead by the end of this week. Good luck trying to save the world." 

Well that's not a good thing. I quickly take photos of it and send them to Alex. I call out to Kara, she will hear me. I whisper read the note on the breeze. Next second there is an extremely pissed off super standing at the doorway.

"Lucky you still have your keys" I say with a small smile. She stiffens. I go over to her placing my hand on her family crest.
"I just need you to be here tonight. Please?" I whisper so softly you could barely hear it. My eyes shining with Unshed tears. My eyes showing the fear that I'm feeling. She gently placed her hand under my chin, tilting my head back so I can see her eyes. I see the sheer determination in her eyes. I see how much she loves me in them too. All I want to do is kiss her. To be wrapped up in her arms and felt safe. She must have guessed how I was feeling and leans closer. Our foreheads gently touching. I see her eyelids flutter and close. Her breath is warm against my lips.
"I want to kiss you." She whispers against my lips.
"Please -" she cut me off with her lips.

Feeling he safe in my arms just made sense. It's like a switch had been flipped in my head. Like someone has turned the light on after being in the dark for so long. As we part from the kiss she nuzzles her face into my neck. Holding me close. I can feel her warm breath against my neck. I shudder. It just feels so right being here.
"Babe we need to plan. This is going to be big and I'm scared you will get hurt." I whisper into her ear. She pulls me Impossibly closer.
"With you babe I will be ok. Remember stronger together" she says with confidence.
"We need to talk to Alex and Sam plus J'ohn. Alura and Zepp. This is going to be a bad fight. We may have to include the league. I'll have to call they guys in gothem and central city." I say thinking out loud.
"We can do that tomorrow. Tonight I need you. I need for us to be ok even if it's just tonight. I just need you to show me you still love me."
She whispers slowly. I pick her up bridal style. She giggles her shy sweet giggle.
"I love you Lena. I always have. I always will." I say solemnly. She reaches up cupping my cheek and places the sweetest kiss on my lips as I super speed us to our bedroom.

"Hey Sam? Can we talk?" I nervously ask her. Lena and Kara had left not long ago.
"Babe what's up?" She questioned. She walked out in one of my button up shirts with half the buttons missing. Her jeans hugged every ounce of her curvy legs. My jaw dropped when I saw her.
"What's up babe? See something you like?" She say's sexily. I nods barely remember what I was going to ask her.
"I know we haven't gone that far because we both know what it means. But I love you. You mean everything to me." She says sweetly holding my hands with hers.I feel my knees go weak.
"I want to be with you. You are my whole world. After everything that has happened we both deserve to be happy. Alex Danvers will you make me the happiest woman on the planet and be my wife?" She says sweetly dropping to one knee. She had pulled a velvet box out that contained this perfect black and purple ring. I couldn't formulate words. I nod. Suddenly I remember the box I've been carrying for days.
"I'll marry you only if you marry me." I say as tears fall. She gets back off her knee and kisses me with passion. She gently pushes the ring on the right finger and pushes mine on. I couldn't contain myself. I kiss her.
"Take me to bed." I whisper gently onto her lips. She picks me up and takes us to her bedroom. I love this woman with all my heart was the last coherent thought I had for the night.
