Kara is on her way to pick Lena up at her office to go to their weekly lunch time yoga class. Kara is already running late because Mon-El decided to call her on her office phone just before she was about to leave. For some reason Kara could not just ditch the guy, something inside her told her to not hang up the phone and listen to his life problems: which game console should he buy?

Even though she knew it was her own fault for listening to him, she could not help to feel all worked up on her elevator ride up to Lena's office. Good thing they were joining a yoga class.

As the elevator opens Kara is met by non other than Lena behind the receptionist's desk, sitting next to Jess. Lena is crouching behind a moderate bouquet of flowers, looking down with a concentrated look on her face.

"Hey," Kara says with some surprise in her voice. She got so used to seeing Lena sit behind her own desk.

On the sound of Kara's voice Lena looks up from what appears to be her phone and her gaze meets Kara's.

"Hey," Lena replies with a smile in her eyes. "Did you just bring in this amazing smell, or am I only noticing these flowers now?"

Are you kidding me? How do you even make this things up? Kara thinks to herself.

Kara mutters a "Thank you", then she mumbles almost inaudibly: "Who knows, may be it is you".

The receptionist sitting next to Lena chimes in with a "Hi Kara, ready for class?"

Turning up her volume, Kara replies: "Hi Jess, uh yeah I guess..." Her head still busy processing what just happened.

"I will be back in two," Lena tells Jess.

Lena she does not have to explain their lengthy lunch time endeavors to anyone. Kara on the other hand always feels like she is sneaking out and rushing in. Having told no one at the office about her lunch time yoga classes, let alone that she is joined by Lena Luthor. She would just rather make up a story about going out for intel and grabbing lunch on the road. As for Supergirl, Kara got Clarke to cover for her. She managed to trick Clarke by telling him that if he needed some me-time or to spend some time with Lois, she would have his back, covering for him. Clarke deeming it a good idea, proposed to cover for her in case she needed some me-time or some time with Mon El. That was how Kara started subbing for Clarke every Friday morning, and Clarke would sub for her every Wednesday morning. Of course, she would not dare to mention she spent her me-time with Lena Luthor.

Kara turns around towards the elevator, turning her face away from both Jess and Lena to avoid any further discomfort.

"Good. Now, let's go, babe", Lena adds as she grabs Kara's arm to join her to the elevator.

Babe. Kara freezes, a rush going through her body, a red blush appearing on her cheeks.

As they walk into the elevator. Kara just stares at the buttons, unable to focus on which one to press.

"The bottom one...," Lena suggests. She looks at Kara tilting her head at the end of her sentence, throwing in her signature smile and rising an eyebrow.

Focus Kara! She thinks as she presses the button, and then starts fidgeting with her glasses.

Lena starts a conversation about her early morning meetings and takes away some of the discomfort Kara has. On route to the studio they share more work related stories.

The dressing room is devoid of other people. Again. Kara takes off her coat. Kara got so used to putting on her uniform every morning, now every Wednesday she feels naked without it. She knows she is Supergirl, with confidence and energy. Her uniform has, however, become so intrinsically tied to actually being Supergirl. Every Wednesday she needs to channel Supergirl when she picks her yoga outfit. She needs to feel as fierce in it as if it were her red and blue. She knows, however whatever outfit she picks, that with one remark, one smile and one glance, Lena will bring that Supergirl to tremble.
