SuperCorp - Arranged Marriage

Chapter 18

Lena's pov:

I wake up with a naked Kara against my back, one of her legs intwined with mine, her left arm under my neck and her right, over my waist. I awkwardly turn so that I am facing her to see that her eyes are close but she has a smile on her lips.

I lean closer and place a kiss on the tip of her nose, "Good morning, love" I whisper.

"Mmm, every morning Is good when I wake up with you in my arms," she says and pulls me closer, I laugh and bury my face in her neck.

"That was sweet. However, as much as I enjoy being in your embrace, I really need to pee..."

"Noooooo, you can't leave me for the toilet!"

"Would you rather I pee right here, right now? You realise that if I did that you'd get covered in it and so would the nice, warm, comfort-"

"Fine! Fine! Just don't ruin the bed!" Kara says gently pushing me away with a grin on her face.

I laugh as I get up, "Really? That's the part you're worried about?" I hear her groan as I walk into the bathroom.

When I come back out I have a rather angry looking Kryptonian staring at me. I stop walking and send her a questioning look, this can't be because I went to the toilet... right?

"Kara?"

"Your phone keeps vibrating." She says bluntly.

"Ookay?" I say in confusion.

"Its Alex."

As she says that I sigh and relax. Jeez, I thought I'd done something for a second. I walk over to Kara and pull her into a hug to which she immediately seems to relax. That is until my phone buzzes again.

"Are you okay with me getting that?"

"No but if it means she will stop calling then yes" Kara says with a frown.

I reach over and hit the answer button.

"Alex?"

"Lena, about time, I've called you like 6 times!" Alex says sounding frustrated.

"Yeah well I was in the bathroom. What is It?"

"Clark wants to know when you'll both be back,"

"You know, I'm not sure. Turns out Kara is actually a natural flyer. We were thinking of going to Italy for a day, then France on the way back. We're not sure yet, may-" she cut me off.

"She's flying!? Are you crazy?" Alex shouts.

"No we aren't. My point is Alex, he made her wait, now it is his turn. We will be back when Kara decides she is comfortable to return." I say bluntly and the hang up.

"Do you really think I can fly?" Kara asks curiously.

"Well, I know you can shoot lasers from your eyes so sure, I think if you really wanted to you could,"

"How do you think I would even manage that?"

"I'm not sure, unfortunately you aren't a machine. I guess you could try thinking about yourself floating or like Peter Pan, think happy thoughts, or both," I suggest. I really don't know how that works, sadly the only way she can figure that out is by herself.

"Nope, happy thoughts don't work... um-" Kara looks up thoughtfully and then sighs in defeat.

"Thinking about flying doesn't work either"

"Well maybe your body just isn't ready for that yet" I say softly.

"Maybe"

I walk closer and lift her chin with my fingers, "Hey, it doesn't matter, there's no need to rush any of this. Just take your time to get used to everything that's new, don't force it"
