My Green Eyed Kryptonite (Supercorp)

Chapter 6

Kara's POV

I try to help out in the city as much as I can even if it's the simplest things as a burglary which occasionally does happen all the time. Even though a burglary is what made me leave Lena for about 20 minutes, I don't regret doing it. I prevented something that could have ended badly and how could I ever regret that?

When I get back to my apartment building, I quickly change back into my clothes that were laying outside of my door along with my glasses on the floor. I go to open my door but it's locked and I don't have my keys. I knock hoping that Lena can hear me.

A few seconds later the door opens to reveal Lena. "Sorry, I forgot my keys." I say walking in.

"No, no it's my fault I locked the door." She says shutting it.

"No, don't apologize Lena. I encourage you to always lock your doors." I say then remember the potstickers. "Are they done?" I ask excitedly almost jumping.

Lena giggles and nods walking over to the pan of potstickers laying on my kitchen counter. I have to hold back from using my super speed even though they're only a few feet away. "I didn't try them because I wanted to wait for you." Considerate Lena

"How about we try them together?" I ask as I pick up one and another while putting one in Lena's hand.

Lena smiles and I count down, "3,2,1!" I shove the whole thing in my mouth and moan from the taste. "This is so fricking good." I say with my eyes closed just chewing.

I open my eyes to see Lena with half of it still in her hand as she laughs at me. I eye her potsticker with a sparkle in my eyes. "Kara there is more right in front of you, why are you looking at mine like you're in love with it?" She asks.

"But yours just looks so good." I pout.

She rolls her eyes but puts her hand on my chin lifting it and puts the potsticker in my mouth. "Don't forget to chew." She says wiping the corner of my mouth.

I swear I could feel the heat coming off my body in that moment not to mention a smirk come from Lena.

She gets a plate out of my cupboard and puts our potstickers on it as she walks to the couch and scrolls through the tv.

"Well come on you goof." She says as I'm still standing in the kitchen.

Soon we ended up talking the way that we always do. This is one of my favorite places to be. I love our conversations that we have here. They're not always serious but they're not always funny either. I also really like when Lena let's me fall asleep on her when watching a movie. Sometimes I act asleep but she doesn't know that.

"You know Kara, I've known you for a couple years now and I still have never seen you without your glasses." She says as she props her arm up on the couch leaning on it.

When she says this, I swear my heart started beating so fast. "What are you hiding under there Kara Danvers?" She asks.

"W-what, nothing is under them? Just my face." I say scrunching my eye brows.

"Wrinkle." She says plainly.

"Stupid wrinkle." I mumble under my breath. I'm going to get botox one of these days because of it, I swear to Rao.

My mouth begins to open then closes, I don't know what to say or do. If what I think is about to happen everything will change.

The next words that come out of Lena's mouth are enough to make my world stop.

"Kara...I know."

"K-know what?" I ask hoping she's not about to say it.

"I can't believe I never put it all together. Why you always disappear when you hear news on the tv or sirens....Kara..." She takes a deep breath.

We're really having this conversation.

"Do you remember when you snapped at me in the office one day and I said we could talk about work then because you were having personal issues? You walked into the elevator and then the next think I know there was a loud noise. I walked to the elevator and when it opened...there were your glasses and your purse. I looked up and there was a hole at the top of the elevator. It was a confirmation then, I just didn't want to believe it I guess." She says. She scoots closer. "Take off your glasses please."

I don't like change. Change happened when I lived on Krypton and was forced to live on Earth. Then I was forced to not use my powers and live with people I barely knew. I know sometimes change can be good. I love my family, especially Alex. I wouldn't trade her for anything. But I don't know how this is going to end. I don't want to lose Lena, I can't.

I bite my lip holding back tears. "But I'll be blind." I mumble quietly knowing that that's a poor excuse that I used with Miss Grant once.

"Take them off Kara." She says sternly yet in a calming tone at the same time.

I reach my shaky hands up to my glasses as a tear comes down my cheek. She's watching me in such a intent way and I slowly take them off my face but look down so she can't really see me.

Lena reaches over and cradles my head in her hands as she wipes away my tears. "Sweetie, come here." She says and I bury my face in her chest. This definitely isn't the reaction I thought she would have and I've thought about how she would react about a hundred times. "It's okay, Kara. I promise." She says and I can hear in her voice that she's crying now too.

"Y-you're not mad at me?" I ask still refusing to show my face.

"Kara of course not. I understand that there would have had to been a good excuse for you not to tell me. Why didn't you tell me though?" She asks slightly disappointed.

"I wanted to tell you so many times and I almost did a couple times but Lena, once people know that I'm Supergirl it puts a target on their back. All I ever wanted to do was protect you I swear. I know that it's been hard for you to trust and I know you trust me, I'm sorry for keeping it a secret for so long. I really am." I say now looking into her glossy eyes. "This may sounds stupid but I really liked being able to be human with you. You're my favorite person and I, Kara Danvers was your favorite. You and Supergirl didn't get along sometimes but you still loved Kara so I just couldn't tell you because I didn't want to lose you...I was selfish."

"Kind of ironic, because I think you're the most selfless person on Earth Kara Danvers." Lena says giving a kiss to my hair as I'm still laying on her chest.

That night, Lena wanted to know everything about me that she didn't know...who I really was. I told her about how I grew up on Krypton and living with Eliza, Jeremiah, and Alex. By the end, she told me that I could always be human with her because she doesn't care that I'm the hero of the city because Kara is hers.
