So this is a one-shot based off of the events of the finale. And in my head, before all this happened Mon-El has already told Kara about his arranged marriage and that it was over when they had that moment on argo so keep that I mind I guess but tha...

After saying goodbye well, really it was more like see you later, to her best friend Winn, who was going to the future for a little while to help the legion of superheroes... Kara was leaning against the concrete wall of the DEO balcony, looking out over the city that they had just saved, and admiring how beautiful it was at night with all the lights illuminating the darkness, while also thinking about how different things would be had they not defeated reign and the witches as Mon-El walked up behind her.
"Well, you did it." He said causing her to turn around and look at him.
"Just like a Greek myth, you went down to the underworld, slayed the three-headed monster and saved Persephone."
Kara smiled as she cocked her head at him, and her brows furrowed together. "Uh... I think in the myth Persephone eats pomegranate seeds and is confined to the realm of Hades forever."
"Yeah, well that just strengthens my point. Because the Greek gods have nothing on you."Mon-El replied making Kara smile from ear to ear.
"Well, I couldn't have done it without you."
Mon-El chuckled. "No. That's not true. This victory was yours. It was flawless." Kara looked at him for a few seconds before looking back out at the city, and Mon-El immediately knew that something was bothering her.
"What's on your mind?" He asked, his concern was evident in his tone and Kara let out a sigh.
"It wasn't flawless. Not the first time anyway." Mon-El's brows furrowed together in confusion as he watched her.
"The first time?" He asked the confusion written all over his face and Kara nodded.
"When we went to fight them. I went in there ready to kill reign even though it went against what I believe. And because of that, I messed up and as reign was dying, she went out of control shooting red laser beams of heat vision out of her eyes... and she killed Sam, my mom, and you." Mon-El's eyes widened in shock and disbelief as Kara continued, her voice was quiet and shakey because she was trying not to cry.
"So I put on your legion ring and had Winn and Alex find me a disruption. I flew into it and went back in time to save you all. I just got you and my mom back. I couldn't have lived with myself if you died because of my mistake. I'm sorry." She whispered as her tears started to fall.
"Kara... It's okay. We all make mistakes. But you saved us. And not to mention the rest of the planet. That's what matters." Mon-El whispered in return and she nodded.
"When I was in that disruption, going back through time, it made me realize something."
"And what was that?" He asked.
"Before we went to Argo... I just had this thought, that I could be Kara Zor-El ordinary citizen." She smiled. "I would feel like I was home. And in a way, it did feel like home... but then in a way, it also didn't feel like home at all and I felt... out of place. Anyway when I was in that disruption, going through time... I realized that Agro city isn't my home anymore. National city is. Earth is. And so are you." She turned to look at him with tears still in her eyes as she smiled at him.
