Chapter 22

Lena woke up to an empty bed. She furrowed her eyebrow in confusion when she woke up in her bed, with her head comfortably being swallowed up by a pillow and a blanket covering her body. She didn't remember getting into bed last night, the last thing she remembered was... watching Romeo and Juliet with Kara.

But where was Kara, she got out of bed and looked around her empty room, she wandered if Kara already left considering the fact that she wasn't here next to her.

Wait... she was pretty sure that she fell asleep after Kara...

She climbed out of bed, her feet touch the cold wooden floor. She opened her door and went downstairs where she heard 2 people arguing.

"You're burning it" Someone of familiar male voice shouted, "Please, tell her that she's burning it"

"I am going to get fired" someone muttered beneath her breath, Lena knew who that was. It was Ronda.

Lena heard someone frantically smack something down, "I know what I'm doing" Another voice shrugged off the other person's concern with calm... was that Kara?

Lena walked into the kitchen and wasn't prepared for what she was about to see. She stood there with her mouth half open from shock and half open from amusement. Winn and Kara were standing in the middle of the kitchen with powder and dough all over their clothes.

Ronda was standing on the other side of the kitchen, behind the counter and just watching the kids like a mum waiting for a disaster to happen.

"Miss Luthor" Ronda exclaimed with fear as she suddenly stopped leaning on the counter and straightened herself out.

Winn and Kara stopped fighting over the flour packet in their hand and turned around to face Lena who was looking at them with her arms crossed.

"Lena" Kara squealed in excitement, it reminded Lena of a puppy who hadn't seen her owner in days, she turned her back on the stove and started to walk over to Lena, "How'd you sleep?" she asked with enthusiasm. Lena knew what Kara was trying to do, she was trying to distract her from the pain of going to the funeral.

But before she could answer, both Ronda and Winn ran towards the stove that was threatening to go up in flames, "Don't turn your back on the stove" both Winn and Ronda shouted.

Kara looked back with an innocent smile, "Oops" she said while rubbing the back of her head, "Sorry" she muttered sheepishly.

Lena closed her mouth but was still amused by the whole scene in front of her, "Do I want to know why my kitchen is vandalised with... dough and flour?"

Winn shot Kara an annoyed look while Ronda looked down at her toes with guilt, "Miss Luthor, I would like to apologise for this mess, I will clean it up right away"

"NO!" Kara shouted almost immediately, which caught everyone off guard, Kara didn't realise how loud her voice was and quickly tried to redeem herself, "Sorry, it's just that, I made this mess so I should be the one to clean this mess"

"But miss Danvers" Ronda muttered, afraid that she was going to get fired.

Kara shook her head, and gave her a warm smile before turning back to Lena who was still confused and half amused, "Well, you fell asleep earlier than me so carried you upstairs and tucked you in, did you know you snore?"

Lena contorted her face with embarrassment, "I do not" she shouted at Kara who looked at her with amusement.

"It's not like a loud snore, it's more soft and cute snore...but either way you snore when you sleep. After that I went downstairs and cleaned up the living room, because there were 10 boxes of pizza on the table and I remembered how Alex said that leaving things around the house wasn't very hygienic, so I chucked it in the recycling bin, since it was made out of cardboard. After that I went outside and fle—" Kara stopped herself, realising that Ronda didn't know about her superpowers, "climbed, I climbed the tree outside of your windows and helped the baby birdies get food. Birdy number 1 was being stubborn and wouldn't eat the food without mother bird, so I had to get more food for mother bird. I barely realised that it was already morning, and when I came back into the house Ronda was already here"
