āOh, hey you dropped your ā¦ cloak?ā Lena voice trails off in confusion as she holds the heavy red fabric in her hand and almost drops it again when the blonde stranger lifts her head and takes out her earphones.
āOh thanks! I didnāt even notice that, kind stranger,ā she turns in her chair and smiles so brightly that Lena definitely fumbles with the cloak as she hands it over to the girlās outstretched hand.Ā
With her free hand, the girl extends it out for a handshake.Ā āIām Kara Danvers. Nice to meet you!ā Her hands are impossibly soft but her grip is firm. Lena manages to offer a meagerĀ āLena Luthor. Pleasureā before Kara starts to stare intensely at their joint hands as if she just realized something severe.Ā
Fuck, she should have left out her last name.Ā
Lena extracts her hand from Karaās grasp and awkwardly excuses herself to the farthest corner of the library. Sneaking a quick glance back in her escape, she notices that Kara is still staring intensely at the hand she shook while firmly grasping her cloak.
Itās a typical Tuesday afternoon during midterm season and Lena finds herself sitting alone eating a salad for lunch. She has almost completely forgotten (more like repressed) the strange encounter with the pretty blonde when said blonde approaches her at the cafe connected to the library. Kara clears her throat and politely asks if she can sit across from Lena, which is peculiar given the amount of available seats surrounding them. It seems even in a crowded library nobody wants to sit near a Luthor.
āUh, hi, Lena right?ā Kara asks and offers a meek smile ā which is still unfairly one of the prettiest smiles Lena has ever seen in her life. Lenaās cautious as to why Karaās even talking to her but decides to take the bait anyways (what can she say ā sheās a simple woman: pretty girl talks to her, sheāll talk back)
āYeah, and youāre Kara?āĀ
Kara instantly perks up and gives the cutestĀ āmhmmā Lenaās ever heard.Ā āSo youāre aā¦ā she glances at the book sitting under Lenaās salad,Ā ābio-engineering major?ā
āYeah, the math is so dull but it is what it is. You?ā Lena offers.
āAerospace! I really like the stars!ā Lena swears she can actually see stars twinkle in Karaās eyes. She smiles and ask,Ā āFuture NASA employee?ā
āOh golly, I hope so!ā Lenaās so charmed by Karaās enthusiasm (and all of Kara if sheās being honest with herself). They exchange a bit more small talk before falling into awkward silence. Lena takes a few bites of her salad before just realizing that Kara doesnāt have a lunch in front of her. Lenaās about to ask if she wants something when Kara blurts out,Ā āWait I have something for you!āĀ
She unzips her bag and quickly pulls out a bracelet as if she knew exactly where it was and has been waiting to give it to Lena this whole time.
āUmm this is very kind of you, Kara, but I donāt think we know each other well enough to be accepting gifts yet,ā Lena tries to politely decline,Ā āIt is a wonder-ā
Kara cuts her off,Ā āPlease!ā Lenaās startled by her intense outburst and sheās glad that no one else cares enough to pay them any attention. Kara flushes and softens her voice,Ā āPlease, this is important to me. I just want you to have this.ā
Itās a not so typical Tuesday afternoon during midterm season that Lena finds herself sitting alone eating a salad for lunch ā a newly acquired bracelet sitting on her left wrist and a new phone number in her contacts labeled Kara Danvers.
Alex Danvers was having a very peaceful night at home, sipping on her beer while watching another re-run of the X-files when her phone goes off.
āHey Kara, whatās up?ā She answers casually as she takes a sip of her beer.
Suddenly, her couch and coffee table are covered in beer as Alex spit takes.
āWhat the fuck do you mean youāre married to Lena Luthor?!ā
She almost has an aneurysm as her sister gives her the rundown. She takes three large gulps of her beer and then waves it around as she lectures her sister.
Ā āOkay, yes Kara, I remember the pretty girl with the green eyes that gave you back your cloak. But Kara, this is Earth she doesnāt know about your Kryptonian traditions.ā
āYes Kara, I know you donāt make up the rulesĀ but Lena didnāt consent toāā
āShe accepted your what!?ā
