Request from Tumblr: Ficlet request for Kara gets identified as Supergirl by R, but he promises to keep her secret in exchange for something. She thinks it's sex, but it's really just R wanting to know what flying is like.
One of the things Clark always emphasized to Kara was to keep her identity a secret. It was not only vital to her protection, but to the protection of friends and family.
The last thing in the world Kara wanted was for you, especially you, of all people to find out she was Supergirl.
She still couldn't contain the leap in her chest when you looked her in the eyes or when you wrapped your arms around her.
Kara was flying down a street when she heard the sound of fighting in an alley. She instantly zoomed to the alley and found you in a defensive stance against a thug.
Kara dashed in front of you and placed a careful punch to the chest to the attempted mugger.
Kara turned to you, concern etched across her face. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah. Thanks, I thought-" You stopped as you took in Supergirl's face. You had seen pictures online, but you never saw her face up close. And her face looked really familiar. "Wait, Kara?"
Kara placed her hand over your mouth and took off into the air. Panicking, Kara flew you all the way to your shared apartment.
She quickly dumped you onto the couch before rushing over and shutting the window and pulling the blinds over.
"Ok, so you probably have some questions.," Kara probed.
"Yeah, ya think? You look amazing, by the way. Wait, does Clark know?," you asked, your mind running a million miles a minute. Kara normally would have melted at your compliment, but she really needed to have this discussion.
Kara sat next to you and decided to explain."Well, my real name is Kara Zor-El. I was sent to Earth with Clark when he was a baby. But, I got knocked off course and ended up in suspended animation before landing on Earth."
"Wait, Clark is Superman?!," you interrupted. Kara placed a hand over your mouth.
"Shhhh, shout it from the rooftops while you're at it.," Kara joked. You removed her hand from your mouth, although you didn't let go of her hand.
"Anyways, when I finally made it to Earth, it was too late. Kal was grown up and known to the world as Superman. I missed out on his life.," Kara lamented, she could still remember the sounds and heat as Krypton exploded behind her, the buckling of the ship as debris blew it off course.
"My home was gone and the only reason I had to live was gone. But, Kal brought me to his Earth family and I was raised here.," she continued. "But, it wasn't easy. Earth wasn't my home, but I had nowhere to go."
You rubbed your thumb across Kara's hand in a comforting gesture and pulled her in for a hug. Hoping to distract her, you asked, "Hey, when did you come into your powers?"
Kara's face adorably scrunched up as she pondered the question before answering, "As I got older my powers developed. I remembered thinking I was crazy when I accidentally melted a fork with my heat vision. Since then, Kal has spent time teaching me how to control them."
"I mean, at least you could bond with him over your powers.," you comforted. "So, it wasn't all bad right?"
"Yeah, although I'll never forget the day I met you. The day you sat next to me in class and you asked me my name. You came into my life and I didn't feel so alone anymore." Kara subconsciously moved closer to you, her clear blue eyes gazing into your soul.
You could feel her lips just inches from yours, so you moved in and met her halfway. The kiss was perfect, a feeling that seemed to connect your very souls to one another.
Kara pulled back from you, her cheeks flushed. "I've wanted to do that for so long. You're one of the few humans I feel I can trust. And that's why I need you to keep this a secret. Not only could I be in danger, but so could you.," Kara explained.
You mimed zipping your lips shut. "I won't tell a soul. Although, I may need something in exchange.," you requested, a mischievous look in your eyes.
The blush on her cheeks seemed to grow more as the implication set in Kara's mind. "Okay, what is it?"
"Can you take me for a fly?," you asked. Your eyes were now filled with innocent curiosity. "I really wanna know what flying is like."
Kara's mind took a minute to reboot before she responded. "Sure, I thought you were- Nevermind, let's go." Kara hovered in the air and pulled you with her, your body cradle in her arms in a fireman's carry.
"Ready to fly?," she asked. At your nod, Kara opened the window and soared out into the blue sky.
You were having the time of your life. You felt absolutely safe in Kara's arms as you felt the breeze flow around your body. It was like you were weightless.
The view was spectacular! The golden rays of the sun seemed to shine a beautiful, hopeful light down on the city.
Kara flew you around the city before she made her way back to the apartment, setting you both down inside the living room.
"Hey, why did you start blushing when I asked you to take me for a fly?," you asked abruptly. When Kara's cheeks gained a red tint and she didn't answer, you pushed forward. "What was going through your mind, Angel?"
Kara pinned you to the couch, the blush on her face evident. "Enough teasing.," she grumbled, although you could hear a husky undertone to her voice.
You responded by rolling the two of you over. "Do you wanna-" Kara nodded her head before pulling your head down for a searing kiss.
You picked up and placed Kara on the table and got to your knees. You pushed her skirt up to her waist and dove in.
Kara let out breathy moans as your tongue worked its magic on her, gliding through and nipping at her core, driving your girlfriend wild.
You stood up and Kara helped you unbuckle your pants. Before you moved forward you stopped and asked, "Are you sure you wanna move forward?"
"Of course, if I didn't I would have told you."With that, you lined yourself up with her entrance and pushed in.
For just a second, you and Kara saw stars. Once you came down from your high, you started to thrust making Kara spill your name from her mouth on a constant loop.
Kara tried to keep her hands on the table for fear the pleasure would cause her to lose control and accidentally hurt you.
"Y/N, I'm close, don't stop, don't stop!," Kara groaned, burying her head in your shoulder. You were close to your own release, so you thrusted and brought Kara's to hers before you released.
The two of you stood there for a moment, catching your breaths. "Was it just as good as flying?," you asked.
"Probably better. I'll have to ask Kal for some advice so I won't have to worry about hurting you.," Kara pondered.
"I'm glad you told me, Kara. I want to be with you forever.," you confessed.
Kara smiled against your lips."I'm glad, because I have no plans of letting go of you.," she remarked.
