Lena POV
Jess risked her own life to save me? Why would she? My brother killed her husband in his fight with super man! I was shocked that she even wanted to work with me after that. She is the closest thing I have to a true friend here besides Kara.
"Why Jess?" I ask her softly. Kara wraps her arms around me.
"Your my friend. You do so much good in this world. I have watched you struggle every single day. I know how guilty you feel for everything Lex did. You don't need to. Just because your family is evil and heartless doesn't mean you will be. Kara lives you so much, so does everyone here. You have a new family now, one that will always be here for you. We will all love you no matter what." Jess said as tears start streaming down both our faces. I gingerly get out of Kara's arms and walk over to Jess, enveloping her in the tightest hug I could.
"Thank you Jess." I whisper in her ear. She sniffles mumbling "I'd do it again". I glance over at Kara. She was deep in thought her cute crinkle showing. Pain evident on her face. Over the years i noticed she cared but I never really knew to what extent. Kara gets up off the floor. I take the time to study her. Her eyes are bloodshot. Her hair a mess. She looked like she was torn between happiness and guilt. She has to know this isn't her fault. Right? Same with Jess?
"So, how long ago did you figure it out Jess?" Kara asked quietly. She was still thinking about something.
"Please Kara. I figured it out after I met you. You and Clark Kent really think glasses are a good disguise?" Jess giggled than continued.
"Or that you two are crazy about each other?" Jess said with a huge smile.
"Kara, I forgot to mention. Jess's IQ is 2 points higher than mine. I almost didn't hire her because she is too smart and would be bored. I'm so glade I did though. She is so loyal and always seems to help me out." I say. Looking over at Kara who has a very confused expression on her face.
"Lena, don't take this the wrong way. But I think you need help." Jess said softly. I snap my head over to Kara. She was staring at the ground.
"Kara can we tell her everything?" I ask her softly. This involves both of us. Jess might be able to help.
"Ok, I need to go back to the kids." She says flying off out the broken window. Jess looked confused now.
"Sit down Jess. It is a long and complicated story." I say walking over to my bar. I grab a bottle of scotch that we both like and poor us a glass each. I sit down with her on my couch and start to tell her everything. Not leaving anything out.
