Supercorp: Unexpected Feelings

Chapter 50

Kara releases a breath as soon as Ashley asks if she and Natalie can go and see Lena. Kara knows in this moment that the two girls may have had a different reaction, as after all what Kara just told them is an incident that involves both of their parents, who they each clearly love, despite how much of an awful human being Andrea is. So, Kara is hopeful that this reaction is at least positive, or in that sort of direction.

"Your mom is still in the shower at the moment." Kara says, "Let me go up and check on her, and see how she is doing. But I should let you know, that she is pretty upset about what happened, as you can imagine. So, I'm not going to ask her if you can see her, but I'm just going to tell from her body language if I think it's a good idea for the two of you to see her or not, okay?"

"Okay." Natalie nods.

"Yes. Okay." Ashley nods.

"Alright. I'll just be a few minutes, and go check to see how your mom is doing." Kara says, "In the meantime, I know I can't control either of you, or tell you what to do, because I'm not one of your parents. But I really would recommend that you don't start texting your má, asking about what happened. You'd only get her side of things, and she has been known to twist the truth."

Natalie and Ashley just nod their heads at Kara saying that, and Kara then leaves the living room area of Lena's house, and heads upstairs, in the direction of Lena's bedroom.

A few moments later, Kara arrives outside Lena's bedroom, which the door of is shut. So, Kara just gently knocks on the door, but she gets no answer.

"Lena?" Kara calls out, "You in there?"

Kara still gets no answer, so she decides to open the door to the bedroom and step inside. As Kara does this though, she hears the sound of Lena's shower still running, signalling that the brunette is obviously still in the shower. Kara thinks this is a bit strange, as that would mean Lena has been in the shower for almost 30 minutes at this point. So, Kara walks over to the bathroom door, and knocks on that too.

"Lena? Are you okay? You have been in there a while." Kara says.

Kara, once more, does not get an answer from Lena.

In this moment, Kara doesn't really know what to do, but as she stands there, outside of the bathroom door, her alpha starts to pick up on some slightly distressed, but mostly upset, omega pheromones. This tells Kara that Lena is very much not okay right now.

"Lena, I'm coming in." Kara says.

Kara then opens Lena's bathroom door and walks further into the bathroom, not seeing Lena right away. Eventually, as Kara approaches the shower itself, she sees Lena sitting on the floor of the shower, just trying to rub her skin with a sponge, almost as if she is in a bit of a trance, and doesn't even notice Kara right now, and didn't hear her come in. Upon seeing this, Kara feels so bad for Lena, because she knows that the brunette is only doing this to try and get Andrea's alpha scent off of her, even though it likely went away a long time again. Kara thinks that Lena is just really truly experiencing the trauma of the assault in her office again.

"Lena...." Kara says, softly, as she just stands outside the shower.

Lena doesn't respond to Kara again, and still does not look at her, just continuing to scrub her skin. So, Kara just decides to step in the shower herself, not even turning the water off or anything.

"Lena." Kara says, in another soft voice, as she crouches down onto her knees, getting her own clothes soaking wet right now.

In this moment, Lena finally looks at Kara, growing a surprised look on her face.
