It's a bright new day in Metropolis!

Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping, and Kara is blissfully sleeping in her home

Her (already broken) alarm rings loudly, and is smashed into silence as usual

Kara: Ugh... - She groans - I really gotta stop doing this...

Meanwhile, in YOUR house

You were asleep in your workshop, leaning on your bench, surrounded by blueprints and tools, when your custom-made alarm clock with wheels goes off

And of course it's not a regular alarm clock, so you spring awake into action, catching the fugitive gadget in a matter of seconds

Y/n: Right... - You huff as you hit the stop button on the bot - I'm awake now, thanks buddy

Later, walking her way to school, Kara frustrates herself at every corner, because apparently everything in Metropolis is about Superman

She passes by a electronics shop, overhearing the news broadcast on the TV's in display

Female Reporter: And in this morning's headlines, Superman is at it again!

She groans, and angrily pulls her headphones over her ears

Female Reporter: And after such a trying ordeal, it was all thanks to Superman that the orphans were saved. In other news, Superman...

You round a corner just as Kara is passing by, and you swear to yourself that you can picture a dark cloud hovering over her

Y/n: Hey, Kara! - You exaggerate your motions to catch her attention from the other side of the road

Kara: Y/n? - She pulls her headphones off, and you hastily cross the road to talk to her - Sometimes I feel you're omnipresent, how ya doin?

Y/n: I'm good, but you don't look too excited, what's the matter?

Kara: Well, for starters... - She huffs - Everything in this city is always about Superman

Y/n: Yeah... - You two keep walking, every step having something that screams "Superman" most of them, literally - His fans really are overachievers aren't they?

Kara stuffs her hands into her pockets, as a bus full of tourists revs to take off

Metropolis's Big Blue Boy Scout, Superman, a hero for all of us-

Tourists: Superman! Superman! Superman! - They race away, spraying water and debris from the curb into you and Kara's direction

And in a quick motion you use your back to shield Kara from the splash

Kara: Thanks dude - She curls one arms over your shoulders, bringing you closer - You're the hero they should be talking about

Y/n: Don't mention it - You stumble and stagger until you steady your pace and can keep up with Kara

Kara: Also... - She whispers in your ear - Would you please repair my alarm clock? It's in my backpack, don't ask me how it broke

Y/n: Yeah, I guess I might be able to repair it by lunch break in school- You put one hand on her arm that is around you, scared she might miscalculate her strength and start squeezing you at any moment - Though if I'm guessing right, you obliterated it with your first, and it might take some more time
