The thorns on a rose (supercorp)

Chapter 1

It's been four months since we have defeated reign. Apart from a few robberies, it's been pretty much quiet in the city. So i have spent much more time focusing on my career as a reporter then supergirl. I have to say it feels good after all this time to go back to my simple life as Kara Danvers. Over the last few months i have spend more time with Alex. We both have more time now that Alex has become the director of the DEO. It saddens me that our group of friends has fallen apart. With Winn gone and Sam leaving town, we haven't been as close as before. Things with Lena are really complicated right now, i just feel bad for lying to her especially now that she's angry at supergirl for what i did. In fact i haven't really spoken to her the last few weeks. She said she was busy with L-corp and of course she has been spending a lot of time with James. Today we are finally going to get lunch together. I'm on my way to L-corp right now so we can walk to the restaurant together. I walk into the L-corp building and go straight up with the elevator to the 26th floor. I smile at Jess and she gestures that i can go in right away. I knock politely on the door and open it. "Kara hey!" Lena says, " I'm almost done with paperwork would you mind waiting a few minutes?" I sit myself down at the chair across from Lena's desk. After a few minutes she's done and we leave together. "How have you been Lena, it's been a while." I ask. "Oh i'm fine, you know busy with L-corp" she says. Always that same excuse. "How about you, i read that article you wrote about that scandal at Allman Industries congrats." She said. "Thanks, yes snapper was very pleased with me he actually gave me a chair finally!" I said. "Really!! Thats big, why didn't you tell me we should've celebrated!" She said. We approached the restaurant and sat down at our table. "Well, like you said you have been busy i just thought you didn't have time anyways." I said. It's true, these days i didn't even feel like she cared anymore. She was always with James. Sigh. "Kara, you're my friend of course i would've made time for that." She said. "Well it sure doesn't feel like you would. You're only with James these days." I snapped. I saw in her eyes she didn't like that comment. "What are you jealous Kara, ever since i have been with James you have been this way. I asked you if you were okay with us and you said you were so you don't get to be jealous about it now." She stood up and left angry. I put my face in my hands, what have i done. I finally saw her again and i screwed up all over again. I'm not jealous of Lena, i don't even like James anymore. We had a thing but it's long over and it never really worked out anyways. I'm happy for her really, i just wish we got to spend more time together i guess. The waiter came back and asked if i wanted to order something. Right i was still at this stupid restaurant. I refused and left. I had to get back to work anyways.

I was finished my article for today and handed it in at snappers office. He looked over it quickly but didn't say anything about it. Ever since my article about the medication scandal at Allman Industries he has been incredibly supportive of my work. I don't know how long it will last though, he just gets in these moods once in a while. I got my stuff and got ready to leave. On my way to the elevators i ran into James. "Hey Kara, how was Lunch with Lena." He said. "Fine." I replied. I didn't really feel like talking to him right now. "I have to go sorry, i have plans with Alex. Bye." I said and left in a hurry.

I flew back to my apartment and ordered some pizza. Alex was going to come over tonight for movie night. We had these almost every Tuesday these days. I heard a knock on the door and opened it. "Alex!" I said and pulled her in a hug. She said down on the couch while i got us a beer. I couldn't get drunk but that doesn't mean i didn't enjoy drinking one. Alex was picking the movie while i payed for the pizza at the door. We silently ate our pizza while watching the movie. I couldn't really focus on the movie though. I just couldn't stop thinking about Lena. Alex seemed to notice. "Hey what's up with you, you keep staring into nothingness." She said. "Sorry, i'm just distracted." I said. She continued to stare at me with those demanding eyes. I sighted. "Lunch with Lena went pretty bad." I said. "How bad." She said. "Well she stormed out of there so..." i said. "Why what happened." She looked at me surprised. "I got snappy about the fact that she has been spending so much time with James and at work." I said. "I mean i don't even know why i got so angry about it, Alex. She thought i was jealous of her, you know because of James. But i didn't really, i don't think so." I went on. "Are you sure you aren't jealous of James instead, Kara." She said. "What do you mean" i asked confused. "Well do you maybe have feelings for Lena." She said. "No! Don't be ridiculous. I'm not gay!" I said almost angry. She just nodded. "It's getting late, i should head back home anyways, i'll see you at the DEO tomorrow." She said. "Okay. Goodnight." I said. I watched as Alex left. I cleaned some dishes and got ready for bed. I got under the covers and started at the ceiling. Could Alex be right? Could i have feelings for Lena? I never thought about it really. I mean i liked James so how could i be gay? Eventually i drifted off in a deep sleep.

The next morning i was woken up by my alarm. Frustrated, i tried snoozing it but instead i broke it. "Well that's a good start." I mumbled. I curled up in the sheets. I had dreamed about Lena. She found out i was supergirl and she was very upset with me. She screamed at me and called me a liar. I could never tell Lena who i really was, she would hate me. I use to think she would forgive me because she knows who i am as Kara, but now i'm not so sure anymore. She's still angry because i asked James to break into Lena's vault. I know it wasn't right, i just felt so betrayed after she used kryptonite. She's my best friend so i took very personally but i forgot that Supergirl isn't Lena's best friend. Although, i always thought we were friends but Lena was very clear that it was nothing more then business. That certainly broke my heart. I feel even worse about lying to her now because if she knew she would probably want nothing to do with me. The thought of losing her made tears in my eyes. I wonder if it's selfish not telling her.

I decided it was time to get up. I got out of bed and went into the kitchen. I heated up the oven and put some pancakes in the oven. I'm a horrible cook, after all these years on earth i still haven't gotten better in that. I eat my pancakes and drink some coffee. After breakfast i take a quick shower and put on my clothes and costume. I open the door ready to leave, but surprisingly see Lena standing before the door. "Lena, what are you doing here?" I said. "I came to apologize for yesterday" she said. I looked down. "No, it's okay. I should be the one to apologize." I said. "I shouldn't have gotten angry, you're busy with work and it's completely understandable that you want to spend your free time with James." I said. "It's okay, Kara." She said. "So i was thinking we could maybe do game night just like old times." Lena said. I smiled. "Yes, that would be nice! I'll invite Alex." I said. "Okay how about tonight?" She said excitedly. "Sure, i have to go to work now, i'll see you tonight." I said. "Yes i should head to L-corp now." She said. We walked to the elevator together.

Game night was going to be at my apartment so i hurried home so i could clean up a little. I heard my phone ring and saw that i got a text from alex:

"Sorry something came up at the DEO, so i won't be able to make it to game night ):"

I replied:
"Oh it's fine, do you need my help"

Alex:
"No, we have got it handled. Have fun (;"

I heard a knock on my door. That must be Lena and James. I guess it's just going to be the three of us. I opened the door. "Hey, Lena, where is James." I said with a frown. "He couldn't make it, i guess it's going to be the three of us." Lena said. "Oh, actually Alex got held up at the DEO so she can't come either." I said. "Oh it's just us then." She said. I nodded. "So maybe we could watch a movie then." I said. Lena agreed and she sat down on the couch. She picked a movie while i poured some whine in a glass for us. She picked some comedy which i can't even remember the title from. I never really liked comedies. Lena seemed to enjoy the movie and laughed a lot. I didn't really think the movie was that funny but seeing her laugh made me smile like an idiot. Then she looked at me with those gorgeous eyes, and i felt my heart meld. We started in each other eyes which felt like an eternity. Eventually she looked away. I noticed that she was shivering. "Hey, are you cold? Do you want a blanket." I asked. "Yes, that would be nice thanks." She said. I went into the bedroom and got a blanket. I went back to the living room and gave her the blanket. She covered the both of us which made her move closer to me. She put her head on my shoulder. I felt sparkles in my stomach. We just stayed that way for a while, until the movie ended. That's when i noticed that she had fallen asleep. She looked so peaceful, i couldn't wake her up. I picked her up bridal style and put her in my bed. I put the covers over her and took my pillow and pajamas. I changed to my pajamas in the bathroom and lay down on the couch. I smiled. Tonight was great, i finally got to spend some time with Lena. Then i thought about what Alex had said. That feeling when she smiled at me and those eyes. I've never felt that before even with James. Did i have feelings for Lena?
