The Devil

Chapter 17 // Dinner

Lena was surprisingly relaxed after the Lillian encounter. So Kara called for a family dinner to celebrate it. While holding hands they are walking to the dining room, which for a fact isn't the banquet hall or the fancy dinner hall. Just a round table for the best conversations. Perfectly made for a family dinner like this, one that is informal with comfy chairs. But even though Lena knows it's informal and family she just- she is absolutely nervous, terrified even. Because for some reason it just makes her nervous even by thinking about family. She knows she isn't good at it, but now she has a relationship and apparently a family who wants to have dinners together. Not because they need to but because they want to. 

She already had dinner with Kara a couple of times, which was wonderful. Since she doesn't have to eat anymore she forgets it almost all the time. So once in a while the taste of food is quite appreciated. They round a corner and with that they arrive at some secluded door. Kara opens if and mentions for Lena to walk in first. Lena enters the room and sees that all chairs are filled but two. There is one person she doesn't know, a middle aged woman. But all the others are Winn, Maggie and Alex.

Luckily for her the woman stands up and walks to Lena. Lena gets a bit nervous but suddenly there is a hand on the small of her back, normally she would think that this was possessive but it is Kara, Kara isn't like that. 

The woman holds out her hand and Lena quickly shakes it. The woman says with this bright smile on her face "It's nice to meet you Lena, my name is Eliza. I am Alex' mother." And with that the woman returns to her seat. Kara guides her to a seat where her name is engraved on, and with name she means Lena and luckily not Temptress, a name she still has to get used to. 

She sits down the offered chair, by Kara of course, and once when Kara sits down food slowly starts to arrive. And with that they start talking about almost everything. About how everything is going with everybody and things like what is going on down under. But they also all congratulated Lena, since they all saw it. Lena even asked why and that made Kara turn red, nobody gave an answer so she has everything she needs. Kara made sure everybody saw her in action.

Dinner was actually quite nice. Eliza is way too nice and it contained about 60% of jokes and laughter.  "- So when Kara saw the first live feeds coming up of Lena with Jack she was just furious. I think in a day time she broke fifteen chairs! Fifteen! And with Veronica, from minute one I said that that relationship wouldn't survive. But still, seeing Kara watch your sex in a dark room in Hell... that's pretty... damn scary. Yes pretty damn scary. Luckily for me I put money on Jack and your relationship and said that Jack was gay. And it's safe to say that that guy has a boyfriend now. And who ended with the girl? The devil! Somebody who is better than that animal of a person called Veronica Sinclair. And that says a lot since Kara has a title. But it is safe to say that Kara ended in the right place with the right girl."

Kara's emotions where all over the place because of Alex saying that, from mad to furious and back to happy. Which made people laugh quite some times, but Lena actually enjoyed hearing that Kara always cared about her, like she was always there. It's also a bit- disturbing to know that she saw all her sex. But hey, Lena is good in bed. 

But right now they are together in bed, just relaxing and thinking about the day. Just like some time ago Kara reads the paper, which is actually bad for nature... wait- No Kara can just make it appear so no worries about that. Lena is watching the stock exchange, seeing how bad it is going with L-Corp.Which isn't her fault since she technically doesn't exist. Which means she can hurt anybody she wants. Suddenly Kara speaks up and firmly says "No."

Lena looks shocked at her and Kara is still reading from her paper. Lena doesn't know what Kara is talking about so she asks a bit confused "What?"

Kara puts her paper away and says "No, we are not going to hurt those people. I forbid it, this is exactly you need me right now. You are not thinking clearly, you liked hurting Lillian and that means you are not in the right mindset to do revenge cases. So Lena, you are not going to do that. You just need to feel how it feels to help somebody. Your first normal case will be tomorrow. You will help Lois Lane. I will give you the report later today. But you cannot do revenge cases anymore, it just- you got hurt by way too many."

Lena slowly nods, Kara is right. She wasn't in the right mindset, she wasn't thinking clearly. But now she is, and Kara is right. No revenge cases for her, she did get hurt too much by way too many people. So for now she accepts whatever she is going to do. And she will help whoever that Lois Lane is, since that is what is asked of her.

Kara smiles at her and places a kiss on Lena's lips. She moves towards Lena's ear and whispers with her hot breath against Lena's ear "Thanks" and with that Lena quickly captures Kara's lips with her own in a heated kiss. Because oh boy, that turned her on. But they never move past second base, just because they are both not ready for it yet. But it's safe to say that one day they will be ready.
