Lena's POV

Ok so maybe I was a bit rash with saying I could handle anything, this girl needs a ton of help, she is nearly at the bottom of all her classes. And strangely it's not from how smart she is, she is brilliant and gifted. But she just seems to be easily distracted, and that seems to be a problem I have to help her with first.

"Honey, why are you so distracted?" I ask her as we sit on my sofa, with her leaning into me. You know I think I might have missed a stage here, I think I have a girlfriend, not that's a problem or anything, it just happened. But maybe it's for the best I don't look too closely at that just yet.

"I don't know, I just find it too noisy in school sometimes," she says as she cuddles into my side as we watch TV.

So to say we have been spending a lot of time together would be an understatement, I think Kara might be living with me now as well, I have given up trying to find out if she is or isn't. She is a free spirit that comes and goes when she feels the need, or so it seems to me. So she has been sleeping over since last few weeks almost every night.

"Umm, I'll see if there is some way to help you out... maybe some kind of noise dampening earplugs..." I say as my mind starts running through problems and how to fix or lessen them for Kara, and yes I know just how that sounds, she has become something very important in my life in the last five weeks. I think about her all the time, but it is strictly a friends thing. It is!

So over the last five weeks, she has just been with me in my home or hanging out at school. It's like she is my better half now, again not something I care to examine too closely just yet. We are just friends, right? Or am I back to looking at that whole girlfriend stage without being asked. Maybe I should just not look too deeply just yet. Yes, that sounds like a plan.

Ah yes, I have my own penthouse, what did you think I was going to live with the others in that school, not bloody likely. Lex made sure I had my own place, and he even comes by to check on me all the time, Strangely he took a liking to Kara right away. He did seem strange about her as he asked a lot about her family. But he made it clear he was not 'Into' her as we spoke about it, he said he was not that kind of guy to come in and steal my friend before I could work out if I wanted to be 'Into' her in that sort of way, myself. Lex is the best brother a girl could have. He has supported me with my being Gay since I told him at the age of ten. He has never had a problem with it, he has even sent a few girls my way trying to set me up. They never seemed to be right for me tho.

I guess you're asking yourself why I have my own place and I never speak of our folks, well since our folks died three years ago he has been there for me any and every time I needed him. Oh yes, that first year was hard, but he was there with me. Again the best brother a girl can ask for!

"It's ok, all this extra studying, your help has helped me so much... I don't know what I would do without you, Lena." Kara says with a sigh of contentment Kara pulled me from my thoughts as she nuzzled into my side and pulled the cover over our laps. Oh yes, I do find it hard not to think about 'Us' with how damn cute she is with me all the time.

Now to say Kara is strange that is also an understatement, she is very strong, freakishly strong. And I have a feeling she can hear much better than anyone else can. I have a strong feeling this might be why she is having problems in school. Her hearing is very good, yes them sound damping earplugs might be a good start. I'll get them done by this time tomorrow.

I smile down at her. "You don't need to worry about that Kara, my dear I'll be here for you as long as you need me or want me to be," I tell her as I pull her closer to me and let my fingers play with her hair. Ok, so I just might be into her deeply. But we have not spoken about that.

"Thank you, Lena, you're so nice to me... oh did I tell you my sister will be in town next week, can she stay with us?" she asks. This does answer a question if she is living with me and added a few new ones. Kara has a sister.

"You don't need to ask Kara, your family is welcome here," I tell her as I turn to look at her. "I didn't know you had a sister, what is she like?" I ask her hoping to get some info out of my strangely quiet friend.

"She's great! She is a doctor and has a few degrees in bioengineering... yeah the stuff is way over my head but she never lets me feel that way," she says in a happy tone as she smiles about her sister. I melt seeing that smile. Kara is like looking into the sun. On her good days, she has a smile that will melt an iceberg. I find myself smiling right along with her on them days.

"Rightly so, Kara, you're far from dumb, you're quite smart. I bet if you put yourself to it you could do anything." I tell her and she just smiles at me with her bright blue eyes. I blink and lose all track of what I had planned on saying next, oh damn I now see it, I am so in deep for this girl.

"I think you two will get along!" Kara says with a giggle and a quick kiss on my cheek. I feel myself lick my lips, that kiss was so soft and left me wanting, hold that thought! I think I'm blushing, she is making me blush!

"I'm sure we'll get along too," I say as try my best to hide my blushing face. Holy cow this girl just smashed her way into my life. And she has taken me out like nothing or no one ever could before.

"Good, and Lena..." she asks in a soft tone and I find myself wanting to hear that voice more.

"Yes?" I ask

I swear to god she licked her lips looking into my eyes. "Can I sleep in your bed tonight? I don't like... I feel alone in that big bed by myself." she says and my mind just shuts off and I find it hard to think much less speak. "Lena?" she asks in a worried tone.

"Ooh... yes, Kara, I would not mind at all." I do my best to keep the tremor out of my voice. Oh damn, this girl has me tighter than a vice, I am hers and I think she knows it. I think?
