*Lena and Kara are together and Lena has to choose between her brother and Kara*
Lena's POV
'I will kill her and all that stands in my way' he spits in my face, reminding me of my mother's actions. I believed he was better than her. I believed in him. But none of my family have any decency or love in their hearts. The hearts I loved and cherished my whole life. The hearts that have been replaced by one heart. Kara's. She means everything to me. And Lex wants to kill her. And anyone in his path to her. So I guess he wants to kill me too. I can't let him kill her. I won't let him kill her. She's the love of my life. I've never had love in my life until she came in that day to interview. Stumbling over her words and fumbling with her glasses, glasses I have grown to know are not just any old glasses. She brought not only her but my closest friends into my life and stuck them there like pieces of gum. And I never want to scrape them off.
'You'll never get to her Brother. That would mean you'd have to kill me.' I say with confidence.
'So be it.' Those three venomous words struck me like arrows.
'You would kill me? Just to get to Supergirl?'
'Yes Lena can't you see. I don't care for you as much as my loathing for her. She has to go. And if that means you have to go then I can live with that.' Tears pooled in my eyes but I never let them fall. He will be good to his word. And it kills me inside but I have to stop him.
'I loved you Lex. I thought we understood each other. I thought we got each other. But this is where our pathways split. I love her. Do you not get that?'
'I do. But I simply don't care.' He shrugged and smirked.
Without a word I pulled the trigger.
I stared at his limp body and a tear rolled down my cheek. I ran. I couldn't bare to look at him anymore, all dead and lifeless. I ran and my lungs were screaming and my legs were burning but I kept running.
Before I knew it I was in front of my house. Mine and Kara's house.
She obviously heard me with her super hearing and opened the door before I could. Her gorgeous face crumbled as she saw mine, tear streaked and sweaty.
'He- he's gone.' I stuttered out, still not quite believing I killed my own brother.
'He is?' She said in a sorrowful tone. The sorrowful tone was for me and I knew it. Because deep inside, she was relieved. And I know deep inside I was too.
'Yes.' I breathed out and smiled.
She glanced at me full of pity and I broke under her soft, caring gaze, falling into her opened arms and letting sobs take over my body.
Kara silently closed the door and carried me to the sofa where she sat down with my head still firmly buried in her shoulder.
I sobbed for hours or minutes I couldn't tell, but Kara let me. And I loved her even more for it. She let me mourn over someone who wanted her dead. She said nothing, but she knew that's what I wanted.
She simply held me tightly and rubbed my back until I had calmed down.
'I love you. I always will and I'll never let you forget it.' She said quietly into my ear.
The only words I spoke for the rest of the night whilst she held me were, ' I love you too Kara, forever'
