Secrets...Revealed

Take A Chance On Me!

Hiking was never Lena's forte. She found herself pausing on the way to call Sam. "Hey Sam...I made it to the island Kara's on."  Lena said. "What! Really that quick?" Sam exclaimed. "Yes! I'm currently stopping on the hill to her house. It's a long way up this damn hill. Why the fuck did she have to move to a bloody mountain?" Lena groaned. "Well you did make a point to tell her that you never wanted to see her again...so..a mountain does seem like the best way to hide away from the world." Sam replied. "Yea...don't remind me Sam...thats why I'm here." Lena replied. "So what are you doing talking to me? Why aren't you still climbing up the mountain?" Sam asked. "Cause it's hot! And I don't want her hearing me and fly off somewhere." Lena replied. "Chill she can probably already hear you Lee. Just relax, keep walking so you're not walking in the damn dark." Sam deadpanned. "Yes! Ok! I'm going!" Lena grumbled. "Good! Call me when you make it ok?" Sam replied. "Yes Sam!" Lena said as she ended the call.

Sam quickly called Kara alerting her to Lena coming up the mountain, however Kara already heard her heartbeat. "I figured as much, she's gonna call me when she gets there." Sam explained. "Ok Sam...I've got to get Megan to bed...but I look forward to seeing her reaction to everything. Good night Sam." Kara said ending the call. "Come on my little angel...it's time to go to bed." Kara cooed as she picked her up in her arms. "Mommy you tells me a tory?" Megan asked "Of course, let's get your teeth brushed and into pajamas first though." Kara whispered.

A few minutes later Kara had gotten Megan into her bed and began telling her favorite story. "When juju was thirteen years old I was sent away by your grandmother Alura and grandpa Zor-El. I was sent to Earth to protect cousin Kal-El, but juju's ship was knocked off course and juju spent twenty four years in a terrible place called the phantom zone. But one day juju landed on Earth and cousin Kal-El was all grown up. So Kal took your juju to a house where she met Auntie Alex, grandma Eliza and grandpa Jeremiah. And juju learned to control her powers, but she hid them until one day a plane that had Auntie Alex inside began to crash. So juju left work quickly and saved Auntie Alex's plane from landing in the water saving everyone on board. After that your juju became 'Supegirl!' I spent years saving people of National City, fighting aliens, putting out fires, and just doing good by everyone....and your sound asleep...rest well my little angel."

Kara stood up slowly turning on Megan's night light before she shut the door part of the way and walked back into the kitchen pouring herself a glass of wine before heading to the sofa. "Now I wait for slowpoke Lena Luthor to climb the rest of the way up here." She said to herself as she put her feet up on the coffee table she made from drift wood. It was one of the first thing she made when she bought this house.

Meanwhile Lena was half way past the first house on the mountain when someone  walked out of the house and offered her a ride the rest of the way. "Where you headed miss?" The older woman asked. "Kara Danvers place." Lena replied breathlessly as she put her bags in the back of the old truck. "Ah yes Miss Danvers. Nice young woman and her daughter is very sweet too. Have you known Miss Danvers's long?" The older woman asked. "Ah...about six years." Lena replied looking down at her dirty clothes and torn up sneakers. "Have you visited her before?" The older woman asked. "No...first time...I've been busy with work and stuff." Lena replied.

Kara smiled to herself as she heard the familiar heartbeat of Lena approaching faster and faster. "Hmmm Mrs. Johnna took pity on her. Must be she was out tending her flowers." Kara hummed to herself as she refilled her wine glass. She heard the engine come to a stop just outside her garden gate. Grabbing her phone she sent Sam a quick 'she's here' text. Before waiting for Lena to knock on her door. "Thank you for the ride!" Lena said as she watched the older woman drive off.

"Bloody hell! What is she thinking planting roses by her garden gate!" Lena yelled out as a thorn went into her leg as she pulled her suitcases through. The outdoor light was bright and it illuminated the stone walkway. Lena was in awe at how charming the little house looked. As she appears the door her hands began sweating bad. 'Pull yourself together Lena! You can do this. It's only one stupid song and dance...and maybe some groveling.' She told herself as she raised her hand to knock on the wooden door however she quickly noticed that there was only a lamp on inside and two shadows dancing around.

Moments before Lena approached Kara's house Megan woke up from a nightmare and yelled out of for her. Kara rushed in scooping Megan up in her arms and carried her out to the living room. "Come on my angel, juju will dance with you till you forget about the nightmares." Kara whispered as she put on her playlist. The song 'Never Grow Up' played as Kara sang softly along to it.

'Knock! Knock! Knock!'

"Juju...som body here." Megan whimpered. "I know my angel lets go greet them." Kara whispered as she walked towards the door. "Juju..." Megan whispered. "What is it love?" Kara replied. "It's a gil" Megan whispered. "Just relax darling...juju has you." Kara cooed as she twisted the door knob and slowly pulled the door open.

"If you change your mind..I'm the first in line! Honey I'm still free! Take a chance on me! If you need me,let me know, gonna be around...if you've got no place to go...if you're feeling down...if you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown...honey I'm still free! Take a chance on me! Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie...If you put me to the test...if you let me try...take a chance on me...that's all I ask of you honey...take a chance on me...we can go dancing...we can go walking...as long as we're together...listen to music...maybe just talking...get to know you better...cause you know I've got so much that I want to do...when I dream I'm alone with you...its magic! You want me to leave it there...afraid of a love affair...but I think you know...that I can't let go... if you change your mind...I'm the first in line...honey I'm still free...take a chance on me! If you need me let me know..gonna be around...if you've got no place to go...if you're feeling down...if you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown...honey I'm still free....take a chance on me...gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie...if you put me too the test...if you let me try...take a chance on me...come on give me a break will you? Take a chance on me!"

Kara did her best not to burst out in laughter as Lena really belted out the ABBA song...so Megan did it for her. The little blonde haired girl giggled at the dark haired woman all covered in dirt. "Well at least someone enjoyed my show...Hello Kara...." Lena greeted. "Lena...I see my sister grave you the flash drive...and you were able to figure out all my clues." Kara replied. "Juju...me sweepy..." Megan whispered. "I know sweetheart, Lena you can come in. And please take your shoes off." Kara said.

Lena walked inside the dimly lit living room and pried off her shoes. "I'll be right back Lena...kitchens through there if you want to wash your face and hands off." Kara said as she pointed to another room where a light over the stove was on. "Thank you." Lena said as she walked away. "Come on my little angel...let's get you back to bed." Kara cooed as she walked into Megans room. "Night...night..juju. Wuv you." Megan yawned as she lay in her bed. "Good night my little angel...juju loves you...here's your supergirl.." Kara whispered as she tucked the doll beneath the blanket.

Meanwhile Lena was washing her hands and face free of dirt before taking a look around the house. Suddenly she heard footsteps behind her. Turning she saw Kara standing in the living room with her arms crossed. "So it took you three years to find me?" Kara asked. "Yes..." Lena replied. "Are you hungry? Thirsty? Want a shower?" Kara asked. "Would it be ok if I said yes to all three?" Lena asked. "Yea...which would you like first?" Kara asked. "Food and something to drink would be lovely." Lena replied. "Go ahead take a seat, I'll heat up some leftovers." Kara said as she walked to her fridge and pulled out a dish of leftover lasagna she had made for dinner a couple nights ago.

Lena watched as her former friend gracefully moved around her small kitchen as she heated something up for her and poured her a glass of water. "Here you go. It's lasagna...I made it a couple of nights ago so it's still good." Kara said as she slid the plate in front of Lena. "It's safe to eat...I fed it to my daughter." Kara said.  "Daughter? That's...your daughter?" Lena gasped. "Yes that's my daughter. Her names Megan. She's gonna be three in a couple of months." Kara explained.

Lena was honestly amazed at how good the food was. "Good?" Kara asked. Lena nodded. "Who knew...all it would take is three years without instant take out at my finger tips..to get me to learn to love cooking and get so good at it." Kara replied dryly. "Kara...I'm sorry...I messed up...I should have let you explain things..." Lena began. "It's all in the past Lena. Let's just move on from that." Kara replied with a small smile. "So when you said you had another secret...Megan was it?" Lena asked. "Yes. She was the other secret I was hiding." Kara replied.
