Last Night

Chapter 4

Kara was rushing around her apartment making sure that everything was perfect for game night. She had already ordered take out and raided the game cupboard for the best games. Now all that was left was to wait for everyone else to show up. There was  a knock on the door and Kara ran to open it without even checking who was there. Alex and Maggie stood hand in hand smiling. Kara's smile dimmed. "Oh hey guys."
"What you aren't happy to see me Danvers?" Maggie teased.
"No of corse I am I-"
"She was just hoping it was Lena" Alex interrupted. Kara blushed.
"Ohh just get in here already. And be nice." Kara warned her sister. Alex and Maggie sat down on the couch waiting for everyone else to arrive. Winn came next then the delivery guy. James and Lucy had finally arrived as well. Kara was getting worried that Lena wouldn't come.
"Relax Danvers she'll show up. Who would want to miss a game night with Supergirl?" Maggie teased trying to calm Kara's nerves. Kara smiled grateful for Maggie's reassurance.
"I know you guys don't know Lena very well but can you please try to be nice? She doesn't have very many friends in the city."
"Well from what you've told me it sounds like we'll get along great anyway, but we'll on be on our best behaviour for your girlfriend." Winn replied. Kara sighed.
"This is what I'm talking about! She's not my girlfriend!"
"I'm sorry I just had t o get it out of my system." Winn said trying to hold back a laugh. Kara just wanted Lena to get along with everyone. Where is Lena she should be here by now Kara worried. She was thinking about jumping out the window and searching the city for her when there was a knock on the door. Finally. Kara raced to the door before anyone else could even think about answering it. She practically ripped the door off it's hinges from excitement. Lena was a little startled and took a step back.
"Lena! Hi!" Kara was trying her best to act normal.
"Hi Kara sorry I'm late." Lena replied.
"Ohh no worries, come on in." Behind Kara James choked on a laugh. Kara led Lena over to the couch and introduced her to everyone. Once everyone was aquatinted Kara brought out the food and started taking game suggestions.
"Ooh lets play charades!" Lucy suggested.
"Noo you and James always win." Win complained. "Let's play a trivia game."
"Noo you always win those." Lucy mimicked.
"Hey what if we played Apples to Apples?" Kara suggested. "We haven't played that in awhile." Everyone nodded in agreement, but Lena looked a little confused.
"How do you play that game?" She asked.
"Okay so everyone gets seven red cards and they all have people or things on them and one person lays down a green card which all have like descriptive words on them, and you have to put down a red card that you would associate with that word. It can be funny or serious and the person who put down the green card gets to pick which answer they think is best." Kara explained.
"Okay I think I get it. That sounds fun."
Maggie dealt out the red cards to everyone and placed the green ones in the centre.
"Okay who's up first?" Maggie asked. "I'll go first." Lena volunteered. She picked up a green card off the table read it aloud and placed it face up on the table. Everyone was studying their cards, and Lena definitely did not peek over at Kara's hand. And she definitely did not chose her card on purpose. When it was Kara's turn Kara definitely did not do the same thing.

"This game is rigged!" Alex protested. "Kara honey, I'm sorry but your answers are terrible, how are you winning?"
"I think they have a secret alliance." Lucy agreed motioning between Kara and Lena.
"Us plotting against you?" Kara asked.
"More likely than you think." Lena admitted. Kara burst out laughing. Alex  pretended to be mad, but couldn't help but laugh. Everyone was laughing and Kara had tears in her eyes.
"We need you at every game night." James said to Lena smiling. Lena was beaming and by her side so was Kara this was the start of a great friendship.
