*couple hours later*
After watching all the auditions Kara sat at the bar with Winn at they're local pub. "Yeno Kara I never asked.. where'd you come up with Clark from?"
"I have a cousin in metropolis named Clark""Oh okay so there is a reason not just outta the air"
Kara just nodded small talk was inevitable. And incredibly awkward knowing he had a crush on her. But when he confronted her he assumed she was into.. well yeno that. But she claimed she was completely straight. But even right now she questioned herself. From the raven haired beauty whom she crashed into on the streets to the hot blonde across the bar eyeing her. Kara had been mentally exhausted. And was ready to just go home."Winn I'm going to go home and catch some sheep I'll catch you later ok?" She trudged toward the door
"oh ok catch you later then, be safe"
"Will do" she forced a smile just like she always did.
She reached Alex's condo with just energy to crawl into bed
She never really had enough energy for much of anything. After mike left her for "his duty" which means another women. She figures out music is really the only thing keeping her sane. She plays trumpet, piano, and she can sing. But she haven't sung since before mike left. It reminded her of him too much. They'd sing together all the time even with Winn. It just never felt the same with him not here.
Soon Kara drifted off into a dreamless sleep.I mean when all hopes and dreams are crushed can't really expect to sleep like a baby. But still couldn't hurt to try..
The next morning
A knock on the door rattles the whole condo. Kara falls out of bed looking for the sounds origin in her groggily sleep state. She rolled off her clunky twin bed with a thud
"shit"
*knock knock knock*
"Shhh-itt I'm-m coming hold onn" Kara stumbles out of her bed room she opens the door and her heart skyrockets the instant blue meets green"Oh um hi-" the green eyes woman stutters "oh um hi I'm Lena, Lena Luthor. does a Clark Kent live here?"
Kara rubs the sleep from her eyes. "Oh um" she looks down at here bottom up pjs with little hearts and baby Cupid all over them."H-he isn't currently in, I believe he left for an early brunch- I mean business meeting." Kara stutters moving her her awkward hands that were placed in her hips then when that still didn't feel right she just folded her arms and leaned against the door.
"Well then miss...?"
"Danvers, Kara Danvers. I'm his cousin" she smiled sheepishly
"Oh then maybe I can leave a message with you then. Clark and a Winslow have been chosen to work tomorrow nights club scene. We really liked what we saw in they're audition." She said proudly and clearly like a perfect business woman would.
"Oh! That's great! I can't wait to tell them! That'll be so happy!" She said I little too excited
"Well yes I'd sure hope so, um do you by chance want to go with me tonight to watch them? I'm sure they'd be extremely happy to have you there! and so would I" Lena said but the last part she mumbled as she fiddled with her jacket trying hard not to have a gay panic.
"I'd be honored Mrs. Luthor" her smile was so bright it could have been seen from space.
"I'm sorry Miss. Danvers I'm not married"Oh.. oh I apologize I assumed a gorgeous woman like you would have already been snatched up." Kara tried her best to be smooth but that's the best she'd come up with.
Lena blushed "no sadly my name and brothers reputation usually keeps the men and woman away"
"Oh I se-" Kara couldn't finish
"Kara? Who's at the door?" Alex appeared from her bedroom in boy shorts and a low tank top
Lena lost her soft demeanor as Alex moved into frame. Who's this girl sleeping in MY Kara's apartment? Whys she in little to nothing? Is Kara playing her? Was this her girlfriend? Friend? Cousin? ..Ex?
As Lena's thought grew darker Kara noticed and touched Lena's arm and Lena felt chills as Kara's strong grip pushed all rational thoughts from her mind and shockingly looked at Kara."Alex this is Miss Luthor, Lena this is my sister Alex. She also lives here." As Kara still held on to Lena she turned to Alex "Alex, my friend Lena was just telling my how Clark and Winn got the gig!"
"Who's cla-" Kara shot over to Alex and cuffed her mouth to silence her as Kara looked at her with pleading eyes to go along with it.
Lena on the other hand was still in shock at the loss of Kara's hand on her arm the once spot that was warm was now cold and she longed for Kara to touch her again. "O-oh Clark and Winn! Thats awesome I'm so proud!""Okay well Alex I'll just walk Lena out and I'll be right back"
Alex winked
Kara pushed Lena outside again "thank you so much for giving them this opportunity. I can't tell you how much this means to them" Lena was about to tell her she was welcome but she felt the sun wrap it's warm arms around her waist tugging her body close the the heat she melted instantly into the hug and whispered "you're welcome"
Lena felt so content she wanted to stay like that for an eternity wrapped in this strangers arms. The moment Kara pulled back Lena already missed the heat. Kara's eyes were a blue that could drown you if you looked two long. They could drag you out to sea and leave you there. But Lena wouldn't have it any other way.Kara smiled but her face soon changed "oh drinks tonight here let me give you my number and what do you say we'll meet at 8-ish? The band plays at..?"
"N-Nine" Lena's rough voice confirmed."I'll um I'll see your there Miss Luthor"
"Yes you will Miss Danvers"
As Lena walked away she could feel Kara's eyes linger on the back of her head but the only thing she cared about was not having a heart attack as she tried to regain control over her rapidly beating heart.
