Sam Arias Appreciation Week 2021 - Day 7: Free Choice

alex meeting her cool new friend sam definitely nothing going on here

[mrsluthordanvers]

@stennnn06 got me thinking about Sam being able to hear Alex’s heart beat so I wrote her a little fluff

Read on AO3

Sam sighs as she pulls back her duvet and sits on the edge of the bed. One hand scrubbing over her face as she replays her argument with Ruby in her head. The shouting, the anger, the slamming door. Twisting into the bed, Sam shoves her feet under the covers and turns off her bedside lamp, relegating herself to trying again tomorrow.

Sam lays on her back staring at the popcorn ceiling as she rehearses the conversation. Finally, Sam curls onto her side, one arm under her pillow and closes her eyes.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Sam opens her eyes, and everything goes quiet. Looking into the dark of her room Sam slowly closes her eyes again.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Sam sits up in bed this time, looking around for a source of the sound. The apartment quiet but for the low hum of the air conditioner.

“What the-“

Sam hangs her head for a moment, “You need to get some sleep Sam. You’re just hearing things.”

Curling back into sheets, Sam shuffles until she finds a cool spot. Eyes skim the bedroom again as her ears strain, listening. When everything is still quiet Sam rolls over restlessly and closes her eyes.

Thump, thump

Sam is standing before she even realizes. Striding into the bathroom, Sam flicks on the light, wincing slightly before looking towards the faucet, the water completely off.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Turning off the light Sam stands in the darkness of her bedroom, breathing along to the steady rhythm. Head tilted as she tries to focus on the in on the source.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Opening her eyes Sam slowly makes her way down the hall, bare feet sinking into thick carpet as she pauses outside Ruby’s door. Putting her ear to the seam, Sam waits with an open palm against the cool wood.

“Ruby, baby, are you awake?” Sam whispers. When there’s no reply Sam shakes her head and steps away from the door.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Sam continues her way into the living room, turning on a lamp that casts a low glow over the furniture. Using the light to make her way to the kitchen, Sam scans the apartment looking for any source of the sound, her hand coming to rest on the kitchen tap, also off.

Shaking her head, Sam fills a glass with cool water and quickly drains it. Leaving the glass in the sink, Sam makes her way back to her bedroom, turning off lights as she goes.

Returning to bed, Sam lays under her duvet, hands clasped over her stomach. Eventually, the sound becomes quieter, slower. Lazily rocking Sam to sleep as her breathing slows and deepens along with it.

Thump, thump

 Thump, thump

 Thump, thump

When Sam wakes up in the morning, her head throbs slightly when she sits up. Grunting Sam pulls herself from bed to start getting ready to go to work.

By the time she reaches the kitchen she’s feeling slightly more human, and Ruby already sits at the island with a shy smile.

“Good morning.” Sam whispers as she kisses the top of Ruby’s head before going to pour herself a cup of coffee.

“Are you feeling okay?” Ruby asks cautiously, eyeing her mother.

Sam hums as she looks at Ruby over the rim of her cup. “I just have a little headache.”

Sam sets down her mug when Ruby immediately pales, her eyes growing wide. “I promise I’m okay Ruby. It’s just a headache, no blackouts. I promise.”

Ruby nods, tears welling up in her eyes.

“I’m really sorry about yesterday.” Ruby voice cracks as she sniffles.

“Oh honey.” Sam breathes as she rounds the corner, ditching her mug to wrap Ruby in a full body hug, kissing the top of her head again and again.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Sam presses her lips against Ruby’s temple, swaying them in time to the metronome in her head until Ruby’s breathing has steadied.

“I’m sorry too.” Sam says as she brushes Ruby’s tears away. “How about we go out for ice cream after school?”

“Really?” Ruby asks, wiping her nose on the back of her hand as Sam nods. “You don’t have to work late?”

Sam shakes her head, “You know I think I have something else I need to do today, so I will be waiting outside when the bell rings.”

As soon as Sam waves to Ruby through the car window, Sam calls Lena.

The phone rings twice before Lena voice filters through the dashboard.

“Is everything okay?” Lena sounds concerned when Sam finishes explaining that she’s not coming into the office. “Is Ruby okay?”

“We’re both fine.” Sam says distractedly as she takes a sharp turn when the thumping in her head gets louder, ignoring the horns that blare behind her.

“Where are you?”

“I’m driving.” Sam replies, taking another sharp turn, thankful there’s less cars around this time.

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Thump, thump

Sam takes a couple more turns before she realizes she’s circled the block and hasn’t heard a word Lena’s been saying.

Pulling up along the curb, Sam puts the car in park, squinting through the windshield at the tall buildings in front of her.

“Lena, I have to go. I promise everything is okay, and I’ll explain later.”

“Okay…” Lena replies softly before the call disconnects.

Sam pushes the door open and steps out onto the road, looking both ways before she crosses the street weaving between passing cars.

One full walk up and down the street has Sam back in front of an apartment building. The thumping a steady companion now. Her own heart rate matching beats.

Gracefully catching the door as someone leaves, Sam lets herself into the building. Looking around the lobby, Sam contemplates the stairs before heading towards the two small elevators.

Entering an elevator Sam hits the button for the top floor before she leans back against the wall, both hands wrapping around the metal bar.

Sam watches the little red numbers change as she strains her ears. She passes the eighth floor when there’s a slight change. Quickly pressing the closest button, Sam gets off at the ninth floor and heads for the stairs. Walking down a flight, Sam heads through the doors, trying to walk down the hallway without being suspicious. It makes her grimace thinking how easily this venture has already been.

Sam pauses at a door halfway down the hall, just before it takes a slight turn.

“This is such a bad idea.” Sam shakes her head as she lifts her hand to knock.

Sam swallows as the door opens to reveal a familiar red head still dressed in red and black flannel pants and a heather grey henley. Her face still soft with sleep.

“Alex?” Sam’s eyes flick over Alex’s concerned face, her outfit, the small sliver of apartment she can see past the door.

“Sam?” The beat changes slightly, a small jump before it speeds up just a little.

“It’s early, is everything okay?” Alex asks softly her shoulder leaning into the side of the door and closer to Sam.

The beat picks up again, fluttering rapidly.

Thump,thump Thump,thump Thump,thump Thump,thump Thump,thump Thump,thump

Sam’s eyes fall to the left of Alex’s chest, and the sound grows louder as she focuses.

“It’s you.” Sam breathes, smiling reflexively when she hears the flutter again. The sound falling into the background as she looks back at Alex’s face, dusted in pink.

“What?”

“I think, I can hear your heartbeat.”

Nia: "Hey, quick question. Who's this Sam I've heard so much about?"

Kara, Alex, and Lena: Blushing intensifies thinking of that woman

Nia: "I'm confused. What's wrong? She hot or something?"

Kelly: "Yeah, seriously. What's going on?"

Sam, arriving out of nowhere: "Who needs my help? I was on my way as soon as I heard!"

Nia and Kelly: Blushing intensifies

I don't know about you, but I really enjoy making comedy out of the fact that almost all of the girl main characters were definitely crushing on Sam in season 3.

Lovely people

Can anyone tell me good Agentreign fanfictions? Because when i try looking i always find fics where they are secondary couple...And its frustrating

[stennnn06]

20gayteen really out here keeping us all fed. They need to start giving me some kind of warning though, I wasn't prepared. I wouldn't have known how to prepare 🔥🔥🔥

THERE IS NO PREPARING, SOS!!! 

[electriclimes]

just a thought..

The past 6 months or so I’ve been complete trash for SuperCorp fanfics on Ao3. I lost track of how many I’ve read in said amount of time; that’s how bad it is lol.

Lately I’ve been considering writing a SuperCorp fanfic of my own. A college/university AU. Debating powers for Kara or it could be pre-Supergirl. Past Sanvers, maybe dabble with AgentArias (Alex and Sam). Of course appearances from Lucy, Winn and James.

Working out a storyline outside of the relationships between the characters. Thinking really angsty. Of course fluff. Might try my hand at some smut but no promises.

Think I’ll update this post when I come up w/something more concrete. Let me know what you guys think or if you have any ideas for the storyline. My summer break is pretty easy this yr so I’ll have plenty of time to knock out a whole multi-chapter story in the next few months.

Update 6/15/18

Alright everyone, I did a thing!!! And here’s the link!

Ahhh, my friend sent me your slow burn Sam x Alex fic and I'm in love. It's such a small ship right now, but I'm happy to see we're not sailing alone!

Heeheheheheh, nope! You’re definitely not alone!! There’s SO MUCH potential right there, but I doubt the CW will take advantage of that ;-;

So I will XD heheheheh

Thank you so much for reading it, and taking the time to send me this message, it means a lot ^^
