Forgotten Melodies (Lena X Reader)

Hope

A week had gone by, and another weekend brought (Y/n) to the usual bar this time playing pool with Alex and no sign of a rabid suitor in sight.

(Y/n) had picked up the phone to call Lena, but each time she'd chickened out and put the phone down.

The photographer was pretty sure things were over, what had started with a bang had ended with barely a whimper and (Y/n) couldn't hide from the fact her heart had been broken by Lena again.

"Your head isn't in the game tonight," Alex commented as she chalked her cue. "You keep missing your shots."

"I'm just distracted." (Y/n) shrugged. "Been thinking about how I can make time move faster so my contract will be up, and I can leave."

Alex nodded, taking in the moment. "This is about Lena."

This time (Y/n) didn't deny anything or have a sarcastic reply that pointed to her guilt even more. "I guess it's my own fault, it's never good to go into something like that with stars in your eyes."

"When you were away, she spent every day locked up in her office. Kara took her food, but she couldn't get her out." Alex offered sympathetically.

(Y/n) frowned, looking up at Alex. "She said she was going away with Supergirl."

"Supergirl doesn't go away with anyone." Alex shrugged. "Listen (Y/n); you can stay here with me crying over the pool table, or you can go and set things straight with Lena."

The thought was tempting; it was far too tempting. "But what if she... you know.,"

"There's only one way to find out, and this time try to seduce her," Alex advised.

"I did; she always comes apart." (Y/n) smirked proudly.

Alex rolled her eyes, of course (Y/n) would only think of sex. "No, seduce her heart now you've won her body. That's the easy bit. Now win her heart."

(Y/n)'s (e/c) eyes lit up at the suggestion, could it work? Could she make them move beyond just sex and introduce something else something far more profound?

There was only one way to find out.

In a flash (Y/n) threw her cue stick on the pool table, and with a quick wave at Alex, she was gone and out the bar heading towards Lena's office. If Alex was right, then Lena would still be working.

Lena heard her office door open. She suppressed a gasp when she saw (Y/n)'s head peek around the side. A coy smile playing across her lips. "Hey."

"Hello, what do I owe the honor of this visit?" Lena replied coldly, it had been a week and nothing from the woman. Lena ignored the small voice of reason in her head that told her she had been just as stubborn as (Y/n). "No date this evening?"

(Y/n) took that as an invitation, so stepped inside the office, closing the door behind her. "I have had no dates since I've arrived in National City." The photographer omitted to mention she hadn't even looked at anyone else since their first kiss in the elevator at CatCo.

Lena ignored the softness of the woman's voice and turned away. "Thank you for coming here to tell me that I believe there are apps for that."

(Y/n) took in one giant deep breath and slowly let it out, pride was something that had been installed in her from birth, adding that to the fact she was as stubborn as a bull, it was not easy to humble herself. "Lena, I was an idiot. I got angry when you said you were going away with Supergirl, and I shouldn't have because it wasn't in my right to do so. I also now realized that you made that up for some reason."

Lena frowned how could she be so dim? "You went away with your ex for a week."

"This again, Sara and I are friends, nothing more, and we never will be anything more than that." (Y/n) replied, sitting on the edge of Lena's desk and reaching for her hand.
