I was thinking maybe a oneshot where clumsy B!D is trying to workout, but she drops a heavy weight on her foot and injures it?
Summary: While working out, Y/N drops a weight and breaks her foot. Overprotective sisters to the rescue.
“‘Work out’ they said, ‘go to the gym’ they said, ‘it’ll be good for you’ they said,” Y/N muttered to herself as she laid on a hospital bed, looking grumpily at the cast on her foot. She had accidentally dropped a weight when she was at the gym and broke her foot because of it.
And she hadn’t told her sisters yet.
Judging by the news, Supergirl was off saving a civillian and Y/N was sure the DEO - so, Alex - was behind her. About ten minutes later, though, her phone was ringing.
“Hey, Alex,” Y/N said as she pressed her phone to her ear.
“Hey! We still on for sister’s night? Kara and I just got handling an issue downtown,” she said.
Y/N bit her lip. She had been dreading this conversation. “Yeah, I saw Supergirl on the news,” she said, glancing up at the T.V and sighing. “We might have to postpone sister’s night.”
“What? Why?” Y/N heard Kara’s screech. She couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
“You’re on speakerphone,” Alex clarified.
Y/N nodded, though they couldn’t see her. “I mean, I guess we could still do sister’s night but . . . I broke my foot,” she admitted.
There was about two seconds of silence - the calm before the storm - before hell erupted.
“You what??” Alex said loudly.
“Are you okay? Where are you? Who do I need to beat up?” Kara asked at the same time.
“No one, Kar. I took your advice and I went to the gym and I dropped a weight on my foot. I’m at the hospital with a big cast and crutches,” she said.
“Oh my god - okay. Kara will pick you up and I’m gonna get her apartment set up,” Alex said.
“What? No. I can use my crutches, Al. Besides, what does ‘set up’ mean?” Y/N argued.
“Y/N Danvers, have you met us?” Alex asked.
Oh shit, Y/N realized. They were going into overprotective sister mode. Didn’t help that one was a superhero and one was a trained agent.
Before she could protest, Alex hung up.
Ten minutes later Kara was arriving and helped Y/N get discharged. When they got into an alleyway, Kara had Y/N hold her crutches and then she picked Y/N up and flew her to her apartment.
“This is really not necessary,” Y/N said as Kara carried her into her apartment. She tossed her crutches onto the couch.
“Yes, it is,” Alex said, grabbing pillows and blankets. Kara put Y/N onto the couch and Alex put a pillow behind her head and under her foot, as well as layering blankets on her.
Y/N rolled her eyes and Alex and Kara flopped on the couch, sitting on either side of her.
“Do you need anything?” Alex asked.
“I’m good,” Y/N said, smiling at her sisters.
“Then we can watch some movies!” Kara said, leaning forward to grab the remote.
“Don’t you two need to be at the DOE?” Y/N asked, not thinking that they would stay.
“Nope! The city has Guardian and the DOE has, er, Brainy! We’re taking care of our little sis,” Kara said.
Y/N accepted that. She was happy to be with them, even if they were going a little overboard.
Two movies in and both Supergirl and Agent Danvers were asleep. Y/N smiled, carefully turned off the t.v. She wanted to let them sleep because they probably needed it. Saving people 24/7 meant you didn’t get much sleep. However . . . Y/N needed to have a shower after how sweaty the gym made her. She knew they’d be mad if they found out she was using her crutches, but what they didn’t know wouldn’t hurt them, right?
Y/N grabbed her discarded crutches and slowly made her way to Kara’s bathroom. She grabbed Kara’s night shirt and sweatpants (hopefully she wouldn’t mind) and got bandages and the bath ready. She then slipped inside after taking off her cast and washed herself.
After doing that, she turned off the bath and wrapped herself into a towel. Getting herself out and sitting on the floor, she put on Kara’s clothes and then began the task of re-bandaging her foot.
Taking off the previous, now wet bandage she looked at her foot with a sigh. Her foot was bruised and Y/N couldn’t help but flex her foot a bit, cringing when it hurt. She’d have to take some ibuprofen for the pain that still lingered.
Re-bandaging her foot and throwing the last one away, Y/N put her cast on. She got herself up, only stumbling a bit with her crutches, and got outside.
Her sisters were still asleep, and Y/N felt proud of herself. See, Alex and Kara? She could take care of herself with a broken foot perfectly fine! No overprotective sisters nEeDED-
Stumbling and tripping a bit, Y/N tumbled to the floor, dropping her crutches. Thankfully because she had her cast on, there was no more pain, but the sound of the fall did wake her sisters up.
“Oh my god!” Alex said, immediately getting out of sleepy mode. She sprang up, while Kara was still waking up, and went to go help Y/N. “Are you hurt? Why are you up?”
Kara followed Alex and picked up Y/N, carrying her back to the couch. Y/N couldn’t argue, because now they had a reason to be protective.
“I took a bath, then tripped on the way back here,” Y/N said, letting Alex move her leg so it was being propped up by the pillow again.
“Why didn’t you wake us, huh?” Kara asked, playing with her hair.
“I know you two didn’t get much sleep. Wanted to let you rest,” Y/N said.
Alex smiled. “Always wake us, sis,” she said.
Y/N nodded. “Could I, uh, get some ibuprofen?” She asked sheepishly.
“Of course,” Kara said, standing up to get it. Alex sat down and put an arm around Y/N, giving her a side-hug.
“It’s time for you to rest, Y/N,” Alex said when Y/N took the ibuprofen.
They turned on another movie and halfway through, Alex looked over. She couldn’t help her smile when she saw Y/N asleep, head drooping forward. The brunette grabbed the remote and turned the television off.
“Hey!” Kara protested, when Alex quickly shushed her and pointed to Y/N.
Kara looked over and had an identical smile, seeing her younger sister. “I’ve heard that ibuprofen makes you sleepy,” she said.
Alex nodded. “This won’t be comfortable,” she said, and carefully pushed Y/N back so her head was leaning against the couch.
“We should get her to bed,” Kara said.
Alex shook Y/N’s shoulder and at her sister’s small sleepy whine said, “We’re gonna take you to bed, little one.”
Y/N made a protesting noise and instead of that, with her eyes still closed, she moved so that her back was against Alex’s side, head on her shoulder, and her legs were on Kara’s lap.
The two older women waited for a moment until it seemed that Y/N had fallen back asleep, and both of them chuckled.
Alex shifted a bit and put her arm around Y/N, brushing some of her hair out of her face.
“She is too cute,” Kara said, throwing a blanket over Y/N.
“I know, right? Adorable,” Alex said, smiling down at their sleeping sister.
Kara brought out her phone and snapped a picture of Y/N, smiling before sending it to their sister’s groupchat.
