Alex Danvers was a very protective older sister... Her baby sister was made of steel, but her heart was also made out of golden tinted glass.... Her heart was fragile, but large, which made her extremely vulnerable in a way most humans never could be. So, when she heard that the woman that'd broken her baby sister's heart was back, and had won Kara over with a simple request, Alex was furious.
Which is why she'd busted down Kara's loft door in a fit of rage. "KARA ZOR-EL DANVERS ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND!?!" She screamed as she took in the sight before her... Lena Luthor was staring at her baby sister like she'd just driven a knife through her stomach... Strange, but she couldn't focus on that at the moment... There were more pressing matters. "YOU TOOK CAT GRANT BACK!?!?!"
She watched as Kara folded in on herself as if she were ashamed that she disappointed Alex. "Alex, I love her..." She murmured.
Alex's heart clenched; Of course, Kara loved Cat... that woman had been there for her for so long, had been her girlfriend and friend for so long that it'd be impossible for someone with a heart as pure of Kara's to just let go of it. It infuriated her, because Cat had destroyed the Kryptonian before her, but it made sense. Cat Grant had taken outstanding care of Kara while they'd been together, and she wasn't quite sure why she'd abandoned Kara the way that she did, but she was almost confident that it wasn't with malicious intent.
She watched Lena as the brunette hugged Kara and snuck out of the apartment, and frowned. She recognized that pain in her eyes... It was the pain of being rejected... She'd felt it when she'd first kissed Maggie and Maggie had said that she only wanted to be friends... Then again when they'd broken up because they had different views on their future... But it seemed multiplied by a million in Lena's eyes... It seemed almost fatal.
She frowned deeper... Lena was a good person, a fantastic friend to Kara, and she'd make a decent girlfriend for her... A great one really, but Cat was all of those things also. Despite the fact that Kara's heart had been broken by the Press Secretary, Alex knew that Cat always would have Kara's best interest in mind. She still owed Cat a serious beat down for making her sister hurt for so long; she really didn't like the older woman either... But if Kara loved her still, and if Cat could prove that she'd never do anything to hurt Kara again, she'd back off... Until then, however, she was going to intimidate the media mogul like no other and be as distrustful as she possibly could be because NO ONE hurt Kara Danvers, and didn't feel the wrath of Alexandra Danvers in return.
She ached for Lena and hoped that if Cat messed up once more, Lena could swoop in and win Kara's heart, but she wasn't delusional, she knew that Kara's feelings for Cat were strong... But she did see the lingering looks Kara had shared with Lena... There was something there, was it as strong as what she had with the CatCo namesake? Not currently, but could it grow into it over time? Undoubtedly... If Kara ever realized for herself that her feelings for Lena existed, and marinated them.
All that mattered to Alex, however, was that Kara found someone that loved her just as vigorously as she loved them, and that the person she ended up with treated her like the Queen she was.
She looked at her little sister and shook her head... If Kara ended up choosing Cat, she might go after Lena herself.

Lena sat in her living room, fighting back tears as she tried fruitlessly to focus on the show playing on her 90 inch flat screen.
Kara was on a date.
Kara was on a date with someone, that wasn't Lena...
Kara was on a date with someone she was still in love with.
