WARNING: MAJOR SUPERGIRL SPOILER

Emily's POV

Adrienne's face wasn't very... normal the rest of the discussion with the cast. I wonder what she wants to tell me? So, after our conversation, I talk to her.

"Ren, what were you trying to tell me?"

"I'm pretty sure Greg knows about us."

"What? How'd he find out?"

"No no no, I didn't finish. He also wants to tell the media about us!"

"Why? I wonder how he found out? Who told him? We weren't that obvious..."

"Em!! That's not what matters. I am not ready to tell the media, I haven't even told my mom. It's too stressful, I'm not going to be able to handle it. I didn't expect us or any of this, there is no way we are going to release our relationship status to the public now!"

"Of course, well, let's go talk to Greg and try to talk him out of having the media know."

Adrienne's POV

I'm nervous. What if Greg makes us tell the public? Why does he want to? How did he even find out about us? I'm not ready for this. I love Emily, but I know that taking this step is too much for me. I won't be able to handle it, the media, the paparazzi. Not even with Em's love.

"Heyyyyy Greg."

"Emily. How can I help you? And Adrienne I am assuming."

"Yep. So I heard rumours about some things you are planning involving to two of us. I just haven't heard anything from you directly so just wondering if you know, the rumours are true."

"Well, Emily. I heard rumours that you and Adrienne are together, as a couple."

"Um yes. That is true, bu--"

"If it is, then I would like you two to tell the media."

"I don't think that's a good idea, we still have to figure some things out and it's definitely not official like that yet. Adrienne is still 19, so we have to slowly figure it out."

"Of course, and I respect that. It's just I haven't been telling everyone the truth. Stephen's wife, Cassandra, found out about you two and she no longer accepts Olicity."

"Wha-what? What do you mean?"

"She doesn't want you and Stephen to have any sexual tension on screen. I know, weird, but with that, I can't have you and Stephen together on screen anymore, not even as a semi-couple. No sexual tension... There has to be some kind of replacement, and since Olicity is a huge ship, we need another ship the fans want to see. I've noticed they have been shipping Adrienne's character and yours. I think that if you two tell everyone that you guys are dating, they will ship it more and we can balance out not having Olicity."

"So basically, you're telling me that you want to ERASE Olicity and put me and Rennie on screen as a couple?! You're also telling me that you want us to make our relationship public?!"

"Well... yes. I mean, I totally understand if you two need more time or don't want to. But Cassandra was clear that Olicity can't be, therefore we need a replacement and fast so I am trying to urge you two to come out to the public with your relationship."

I haven't said anything yet. Emily and Greg have been talking and I just can't handle it anymore. I didn't think it would get this messy. And being a gay couple on screen?! I'm not ready for that! But if I can't get it together fast enough, the show will fall apart without a major shipped couple. Especially since Cassandra won't even allow any signs of Olicity. Is she against gay people or something? This is too much and way out of my control. I take a deep breath and hurried to the bathroom.

Emily's POV

I notice Adrienne runoff. I didn't realize she hasn't spoken in our conversation with Greg. Oh, this must be so much for her to handle. I run after her but lose her.

"Listen Greg, let us have the night at least to discuss it ok?"

"Of course Emily. I hope you know I don't mean to be unrespectful."

"Ya, I know, business, we'll find you tomorrow."

"Ok."

I didn't know that things would be this rushed and complicated so fast. I just hope we can get through this day at Heroes and Villains and see how tonight goes.

Adrienne's POV

I know that I can't break down. So I clean myself up and get myself together. I'm going to get through the day and see what happens tonight. Emily and I will need to talk.

"Stephen!"

"Adrienne! Uh, our panel is soon. Wanna get with the rest of the cast?"

"Yeah, ya let's go."

After we gathered with the cast, we went onto our panel. Holy hell there were a lot of people. I have done many interviews but this was my first panel ever. I was very excited but also nervous. It wasn't much pressure except for the fact that we had to keep basically everything a secret. I tried to funny and sound mature. I got questions that I was basically expecting like "You're the youngest series regular, how does that feel?" or "So you're character, what can we expect out of her in the next season?" The fan questions were the most fun to answer. That is until a girl stood up and asked...

"Olicity is my OPT. But recently many people have been shipping Adrienne's character and Emily's, especially since Sanvers has fallen on Supergirl. Could we be expecting this as a gay couple on Arrow?"
