Runaway Girl

Chapter 2 (Beach)

Maggie whistles when Alex walks by her, wearing a black bikini. "Looking good, Danvers," she says approvingly, checking her girlfriend out. "Watch where you drool, Sawyer," she says smiling at Maggie. She bites her bottom lip when her girlfriend pulls her shirt over her head, revealing her own black bikini. "You were saying?" Maggie teases.

"Shut up and kiss me," Alex mumbles as she draws Maggie close to herself. "Mhm," Maggie hums against Alex's lips. "Gladly." Kara chuckles and peels her gaze away from Alex and Maggie, settling it on Lena instead. She forgets to breathe, seeing the girl in a black bikini which is a strong contrast with Lena's pale skin. Oh Rao, the girl is absolutely gorgeous and it's impossible not to stare. 

Lena catches Kara's eyes on her and blushes slightly. She looks down to see if something is wrong with her bikini, unsure if the youngest Danvers was checking her out. Maybe it's because she's so pale and it might look a bit unnatural. It's a hot day, which could get her sunburned. Kara unbuttons her jeans and shimmies out of them, folding them neatly and putting them aside on her towel. She grasps the hem of her shirt and lifts it just above her head, discarding it on top of her jeans, leaving herself in a blue bikini. 

"Wow," Lena quietly breathes out as her jaw goes slack. She had already been able to see that Kara looked fit, but damn, she didn't know the girl was that muscled. Kara's sensitive ears picked up on Lena's reaction and she had to look away because she was blushing badly. Alex digs some sunscreen out of her bag and hands it to Maggie while tossing the other bottle to Kara. Kara catches the bottle easily and she can tell it's meant for Lena, since personally she doesn't need sunscreen. "I could um," she says nervously as she walks up to the girl, waving the bottle around to make her point. "If you want to I can put sunscreen on you back," she offers, aware that Lena won't be able to do that by herself.

"Yes, please," Lena replies politely. "I burn easily." "If you just....," Kara says, gesturing towards the sand. Lena nods and kneels down, placing herself on her stomach on the sand so Kara can apply the sunscreen onto her back. She can feel the heat of the sun, burning through her sensitive skin. Kara isn't so sure if she should straddle Lena, like Maggie is doing with Alex, and she decides it's probably best not to, so she just kneels down next to the girl. "This is going to be cold," she says, giving a fair warning as she squeezes sunscreen on to the palm of her right hand. she glances at Maggie to copy her moves somewhat and rubs the sunscreen together in her hands to warm it up a little bit.

Lena lets out a relieved breath at the cool touch of the sunscreen on her skin. Kara's hands feel soft and she can feel that the girl is being gentle. Yesterday when she ran away, she had no idea she would end up with three sweet girls who continue to show her kindness. In the middle of the night when she was walking next to that road, she had been beyond tired and slumped down with the intention to rest a bit. At that point she had already been walking for hours without anything to eat or drink and it had gotten a bit too cold.

Kara carefully massages the sunscreen onto Lena's shoulders, feeling how much tension there is in the girl's muscles. She can her Lena groan, but not in a bad way, in a way that tells her she had needed this. Lena wonders if luck turned and is suddenly on her side, or at least it feels that way ever since Kara knelt in front of her last night. The girl's concern towards her is heart warming and pure. It's the first she has met such a gentle soul and she can't help but feel like she doesn't deserve such kindness. 

"Done," Kara chirps, retrieving her hands. "I can do your legs as well, if you want to." "That won't be necessary," Lena replies, dismissing that offer. She sits up and looks at Kara, who is smiling at her. "I will do your back," she says reaching out for the bottle. Kara wants to tell Lena that she doesn't need sunscreen, but she doesn't want to disappoint her and she can see that the girl just wants to return the favour. "Okay," she says, nodding a little as she moves to lie down.
