Hank and Alex: First kiss

Alex and Hank part 7: first kiss

I couldn't help asking Hank well J'onn why he stayed hidden. I knew I probably didn't have a right to ask but I wanted to know.

"Hank do you have a moment?" I asked quietly He was walking around the DEO checking that everything was in place. People were still cleaning up the mess Jemm had left behind. Even though Jemm had only broke out of his cell a day ago it felt like ages ago.

"Yes agent Danvers. What do you want?" He seemed a lot happier talking to me now that I knew the truth about him.

"You might not want to talk about it in front of the other agents." I said hoping that he would catch on

He nodded he seemed to understand that I wanted to ask him about his past. He motioned for me to follow him he made a beeline to the cell area that he had told me that he was J'onn. He stood obviously waiting for me to ask a question.

I hesitated for a minute. Before asking "J'onn why do you hide yourself?"

"Alex I thought you out of all people would understand why I have to hide myself." I looked a bit surprised that I was asking this question

"Well I get that it is dangerous but I thought that you would risk that to protect other people." I explained

"Alex, you may not have noticed but I am 8 foot tall and green. I don't look normal I scare people." I heard a sadness in his voice

"But if you help people..." I thought it was ridiculous that people would be scared of someone who was trying to help them

"You don't think I tried! I was hunted for 50 years!" He sounded wounded thinking of his past something must have happened to him. I watched him sink onto the step he looked like he was remembering something painful.

"J'onn J'onzz looks like a monster, he sounds like a monster. People are scared of me." He looked like he was about to cry, he looked so defeated sitting there with tears glistening in his eyes. Something really bad must have happened after he came to earth.

I walked slowly up to him I was worried that he would run away like a scared animal. He needed to see what I saw. J'onn was loyal, trustworthy, kind and smart. But all he could see was a monster. I slowly put my hand up to his cheek just like I did when I thought that he would be killed in a bomb explosion.

"J'onn, look at me." I said when he looked away "J'onn you are not a monster. Even if you tried you couldn't be a monster. You are the best man I know." By now his eyes had locked into mine.

"I'm not a man." He whispered almost to himself

"You are still the best." I whispered back to him the tension had been pulled tight our eyes locked in a second.

In a flash I felt warm dry lips pressing against mine I thought my heart jumped so much I thought that it wouldn't beat again. I felt his hand grab my around the waist. I couldn't move I was still paralysed in shock. Suddenly broke off.

I was still standing in shock when my mind seemed to only think one thought the same thought I had been trying to answer for the past two years. "He feels the same way."

"Alex... I'm so sorry I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry." He seemed equally shocked at what he had just done. He started to back away. I knew if I wanted this to happen I had to move. Now.

"J'onn J'onzz don't you dare walk out! Not when I've been in love with you for the past two years!" I wasn't about to let this get taken away from me. I marched right up to him. He looked confused. His confused face looked so adorable on him. Even though he would probably knock me to the ground for thinking that.
