The Secret

Chapter 4 // Family

Kyle nervously tapped his fingers against the steering wheel, the garage door was opening so he had to wait. A hand was placed on his and with that he glanced at Lena, she smiled sweetly and just shook her head a little. Kyle sighed and stopped moving his fingers, with that he looked in front of him again and minutes later the car was parked.

Kyle got out of the car and grabbed Lori from her seat and carried the sleeping girl. "Lena," Lena looked at him through the car "I will grab the suitcases later, okay?" Lena nodded and smiled. With that they excited their private garage and went up to their apartment. Kyle pointed out which room was Lucas' and walked alone to Lori's room and put her in bed. He met Lena outside in the hallway and placed his hands on her biceps, slowly rubbing it "You must be tired, my love. Go to bed, okay?" Lena nodded a bit sleepily. "I will join you shortly." Lena nodded again and with that Kyle ushered her to the bedroom.

One trip to the garage later Kyle placed the suitcases just beside the stairs on the second floor. Kyle looked down at the living room and sighed, it was great having them there. With that he walked to their bedroom. He knew the most important thing is just to live with the fact that he was a male now- so- he wasn't their ieiu anymore. But- just daddy.

Kyle had forgot to take his shoes off at the front door, so when he entered his room he slipped out of his shoes. He glanced at Lena, who had found her old secret stash of clothes since she was wearing old PJ's. Kyle grabbed his clothes from his pillow and was about to change when he heard the bell ring. He quickly put his clothes down and rushed downstairs. 

He opened the door and was greeted by the sight of Alex standing in front of him. He smiled and said "Hey sis," he saw that she had a gun with her "Why the gun?" He opened the door more and she stepped inside.

Alex stepped inside and said "Just came off work, so- what did my brother do on his free day?"

"Had some fun with Winn- wait, how do you know I took the day off?"

"Mom, of course. Who else?" Kyle frowned in confusion... who was she calling mom? Eliza? But he hadn't told Eliza anything. "So," That snapped Kyle out of his confusion "What do you want to do."

Kyle smiled but felt weird, like he had forgotten something... Suddenly he knew what when he heard "Kyle?" He looked at Lena on the stairs, he smiled at her.

Out of nowhere Alex had her gun up "Hands where I can see them!" Lena didn't put her hands up because she didn't need to. Kyle stepped in between Lena and Alex. "Kyle, you're in the way. There is a fucking Luthor in your house, why are you protecting her?"

Kyle calmly said "Because she is my wife."

The gun was about to fall on the floor, because Alex let it fall, but Kyle caught it. "She- She- Is what?"

"My wife," He calmly said "I have been married to her for quite some time."

"You?" Alex said in disbelief "You have been married to her for quite some time?" Kyle slowly nodded.

"I have."

"And- she- she- she is your wife?" It was obvious that Alex was in disbelief.

"Yes she is, Alex. Is there something else you want to know?"

"I need a drink." Alex muttered, Kyle slowly nodded and gave her her gun back. He turned to Lena who was standing a bit awkward on the stairs. He motioned for her to come down and she did.

He turned back to Alex and asked "Whiskey or beer?" 

"Whiskey." Kyle nodded and with that he walked to the kitchen, where Lena already was. He grabbed the whiskey and looked at Lena with a raised eyebrow, she nodded. And with that he grabbed three glasses. He filled all three of them with a bit of whiskey and distributed them between the people.

"So, Alex."

Kyle wanted to talk further but heard "Daddy?"

He sighed and said "Second bomb drop, prepare yourself," He quickly walked to the stairs and saw his little girl standing at the top. He quickly walked up the stairs, taking two at the same time, and said "Hey my Angel, was your nap good?" Lori tiredly rubbed her eyes and nodded. Kyle chuckled and grabbed her, he held her to his hip while walking downstairs.

He heard Alex gasp when he was into view of her. He walked towards Lena and sat Lori down on the kitchen island. He looked up at Alex who was clearly in shock and said, while looking at his angel since she was looking up at him "Lori," He looked at Alex "That's your auntie Alex."

Lori was quick to ask "Your big sister? From stories?" Kyle nodded and smiled, with awe Lori looked at Alex, who was... tearing up?

When Lori was about to stand up and walk to Alex Kyle warned, in a low tone "No walking on the kitchen island." Lori looked at him with a pout, a real Danvers pout. And with that he set her on the ground. The girl quickly ran towards Alex, who suddenly looked down, it was clear that Lori had reached her destination.

Alex leaned down and grabbed Lori up. And with that Lori pulled Alex into a hug, the woman was about to break since the chuckle she let out sounded awfully broken. Kyle glanced at Lena who was also having it hard. So he walked towards her, stood beside her and put an arm around her, pulling her close.

Kyle was proud of what was happening, he didn't know what was happening. But his family- was finally getting better. They were starting to be a real family, and not just some secret.
