Standing in silent introspection with an icy chill whipping along the corners of comfortable companionship. A familiar whoosh sounded causing Cat to turn sharply to an already suited Kara ready to pounce...
Eyes finally catching the two steel toed boots as they hit the panelling, a deep black suit blended into dusk leading onto- two off world eyes glinting and refracting the ambient light. Kara visibly relaxed realising it was Mon-El, though she made no move to step forward instead she waited for him to approach, to make his move.
Cat smirked she'd taught her well- reclining against a nearby armrest. Looking out into the wilderness of the urban sprawl, curious in her own right to hear what he supposedly had to say... what excuse it might be that he had this time.
Brazen, it may be but she wasn't ready to leave, not until she knew damn well that Kara would be alright.
On first glance she could see the attraction- who knew Kara had a thing for bad boys? that beard and all that leather. Though upon reflection Cat understands it- because of the fact that she seeks out danger almost everyday, realising that obviously it'd carry over into her personal life.
Looking between the two of them it wasn't at all hard to notice that they weren't human- they both had that kind of vibe, too picturesque and chiselled and behind their eyes lay a sparkle that only a non human could project.
His movements she found were swaggered, delicate and precise, his mouth a thin muted grey line and he happened to hold so much pain behind those eyes- obviously a heroes life was nothing to scoff at. By the looks of it both of them had lost so much and had been through hell. They'd walked the plains with Lucifer himself hand in hand until they'd risen from the ashes together.
They had stories, they were wise and they'd had more life experience in their twenty odd years alive than most had in a whole lifetime.
In all honesty she often wondered what they might be, with so much often left unsaid.. she knew she'd probably never get the opportunity to know Kara fully and that even though the younger woman always remained cheery, bright and unassuming Cat knows that deep down she held dark truths, memories that literally no one would ever be granted access too.
She supposed that's why they were good together, they'd both forged similar paths. Mon-El of Daxam and Kara of House El?
They were the same sort of and they at the very least understood each other more than most would.
As prick'ish as he'd been lately she also knew they were meant to be together. Watching them dither Cat had the urge to knock their two steel heads together to make them see sense.
To her it was clear as the night sky that they both still held feelings- as she saw the way their bodies moved and their mannerisms mirrored each other.
Their little tryst meant more than just sex to him... that much to Cat was obvious.

Approaching Kara- silently he joined her looking outward, Glancing between her and Cat, Mon-El hesitated and Kara easily reading his reactions and crossed her arms unconsciously essentially meaning 'you have no say in this'
Kara spoke "She's staying and she knows everything."
Mon-El nodded he'd heard of Cat Grant giver of the 'bestest advice' from all those times Kara had mentioned her in the past. That felt like a lifetime ago and for him it was and that was were he'd made his mistake to begin with. Kara she was still hurting- the break up only being a few months ago for her.
Grife He'd treated her badly. He really knew how to put his foot in it and wreck everything that was good.
Unsure Kara started for him- shaking her head in a type of disbelief, something of anger and sadness lining her facial features "Why sleep with me? I mean really Mon-El, you've got Imra! did it mean nothing? were you thinking of her that whole time when you just so happened to be inside of me?!"
Cat raised an eyebrow having never heard Kara be so blunt before.
Shocked, Mon-El stood speechless- was that what she really thought?
Moving forward trying to grasp her arm "Rao! No Kara I'd never-I wouldn't."
"Get your hand off me" shaking it away she turned around, grasping her mouth and cupping her face.
Silent tears started falling...
Her shoulders shaking as she tried to suppress her silent sobs and Mon-Els heart broke as he moved around to face her again.
Kneeling down in front of Kara and looking up, his eyes managed to catch hers, staring at each other Mon-El sighed as he ran a hand through his hair "I-Kara I would never... what we did yesterday, it meant more to me than you'd ever know." looking to the side "Me and Imra we-we aren'ttogether, she is my wife -yes but it was only to unite the planets not out of love for each other, not like me and you."
Kara's eyes widened behind her hand, stuttering a "What?"
Mon-El nodded "Im so sorry Kara- I should've told you.. I shouldn't have let it happen without telling you of her first but we're friends nothing more, we agreed a long time ago not to be in a romantic courtship- it's just a business partnership that's all and we haven't even mated."
"B-but yesterday you left me afterwards? you forgot about me, you held her instead of me."
"Grife that's on me Kara, I shouldn't have been so hard on you I-I was just worried, the pod- she was dying and I didn't know what else to do.. I -I didn't mean to come off as so abrupt and insensitive, that day was the best moment of my life you have to believe me, getting to be with you again- I've been dreaming of it for so long and maybe that was selfish.. so I understand if you can't ever forgive me but to this day I do still love you."
Kara gaped- warmth blossoming through her chest she couldn't-she shouldn't... meekly "Really? you really mean that?"
Smiling orbs swimming with love and affection "I do"
In that moment she understood she needed him so Rao to hell with it! Grasping his hands and pulling him up quickly, Mon-El startled as soon as he found her lips were tracing his own.
"Mmpf" Laughing into the kiss- at how sudden it was he cupped her face firmly, tears between them entwining.
Hastily, returning it in as much fervour neither person noticed when Cat Grant left the balcony to give them some privacy.
Deepening it- things suddenly escalated and continued to intensify His tongue dipped lower licking the inside of her mouth as she groaned out before biting his lip, nipping at him playfully.
Stumbling backwards they knocked over a few plant pots before her back hit the glass door. Lifting her up in all her caped glory she wound herself around him and continued on kissing him frantically whimpering "Mon-El!"
