25. Heart without a home

NOTES:

M rated but not that much lol. This is a sweet and poetic short fic.

I wrote this listening to: U2 - With or Without You, Evan Rachel Wood - Blackbird, Westlife - Unbreakable, Ewan McGregor - Come What May, Nsync - I thought she knew, Dido - White flag, Delta Goodrem - Angels in the room.

I strongly suggest u read listening to one of them ^^ It has a special meaning.

Chapter Summary: Mixed a prompt: Prompt by teammfmj: "maybe do a sequel with Oliver trying to reach her during her "cold" phase in 3x1? Or have him be the only one shes ok with?" – with the idea I had: One special night, one special meaning. Lovers from different universes finally understands what true love really means.

25. Heart without a home

Kara opened her eyes and blinked twice. Her vision was all blurry so she closed her eyes once again and took a deep breath. She opened her eyes again, slower this time and smiled. It was a weak smile, an unsure smile, but still, she managed to project one.

She looked at his peaceful figure by her side on her bed, the contour of his face, all those beautiful features he had. He breathed in and out like he was having the most peaceful and calm dream. She couldn't help but notice a small smirk forming in his lips. She tried really hard not to wake him up and stood there; lay by her side, her hands under the pillow as she watched him sleep.

She thought about how they ended up there. How everything happened. She was a bit unsure about how she felt, but she had hopes her heart would mend little by little, because it had been broken for a long time.

7 months she spent in hell wondering what happened, if Mon El was alive, if he was ok. She had to live with the fact that she had to send him away to save his life, and now she felt miserable.

FLASHBACK

Everyone thought this was just about Mon El, but truth be told, it wasn't.

She was sick and tired of feeling abandoned. That was all.

The Mon El thing was just something that made her finally feel like she has had enough. It has been accumulating inside of her for a long time now, and it finally exploded. She couldn't help but feel broken, not feeling like doing anything. What was the point? Everybody was going to leave her. It was easier if she just did what she had to as Supergirl and came back to her apartment. Life was easier this way, for her and for everybody.

Alex, Winn and J'onn started to worry about her. She barely hung out anymore, she never smiled again, and she was always looking like she cried all night. It was heartbreaking to watch it. So Alex had an idea. If no one from her world could help, maybe someone from other world could.

Alex reached for Earth 1, looking for help.

But there was a problem: Barry Allen was gone. They told her about something called speed force and that he was trapped inside it. She tried the legends through Star Labs but they were all through time fixing their mistakes from breaking time. Alex couldn't possible imagine how this could happen and decided she wouldn't have the headache. She reached the last place she could: Star City.

She reached for Oliver Queen, knowing he knew her sister. And it was not easy; the guy's life was also a mess. But once he heard about Kara's state, even living his own hell, he decided to help. The only thing he needed was to be able to bring his son with him. They needed a time off after whatever they went through, so Alex said it was ok. She even invited them to stay with her, because the state Kara was in, it wasn't a good idea for her to have guests.
