Lena's pov

I just did everything I could to prove myself to not be like my family and some how managed to get us to that mess. The daxamite queen tricked me into her plans and little while later I'm standing there almost marrying her son 'Mon-el , also my best friend's boyfriend. I could only imagine what Kara might have felt seeing us there almost tying the knot.

But all thanks to Supergirl we are back to normal and the way national city was before.

The only thing that's bothering me is how to hold up Kara after what happened to Mon-el and to whom to tell this weighing truth if not to her. She is the only one to understand what I'm feeling but seeing her condition I think this can wait.

It's been weeks since I realized that I was some how falling for the 'Girl of Steel' . I don't know how , when or even why but I was hellbound to impress her in anyway possible.  To all her achievements, her heroism, her optimism and mainly how she treats me as a friend even though she knows that I'm a Luthor.

Only a heart as good as hers could see me as a person besides my family.

The way she calls me "Miss Luthor " or just holds me in Midair and is always there for my rescue everytime something happens to me. I just can't stop thinking about her.

But I need to be there for Kara for my best friend, to help her pass this difficult heart break. I feel it was kinda my fault that she lost her boyfriend.  She has been so quiet these days, it's very hard to see her like that.

It's been 6 months and I haven't seen Supergirl much apart from her helping to restore the broken parts of the city and I don't know why.

I had the proposal for a statue of her made in the national city waterfront. For her being the national city hero but mainly coz I wanted to make a gesture of how much she means to the city and to me.

There was a big unveil that was setup for this statue and I was very excited to this event as I wanted to see her and talk to her badly.

But as it was also my duty being on the board to restore National city after the damage of what the Daxamites had done, I had to deal with some corporate pricks who were getting on my last nerve. To be specific, Morgan edge. Knows everything my brother did and rubs it in my face. But James has been a good friend and has got my back. He has been a great at being the head of CatCo after Cat left to be the Press secretary at White House.

Kara's Pov

I saw the pod take off. I couldn't process what was going on in my mind. I had just said goodbye to the love of my life. I tried to be a human.. , I tried.. , I did.. but if it feels like this. Then it's better to be as an alien and the vigilante that the world needed than being Kara Danvers.

It had been months . It was very hard to forget about Mon-el or to move on. Alex keeps trying to talk me out of it and to become normal once again but if normal is gonna feel like this then I wouldn't wanna go for it.  I pushed away everyone who tried to talk me out of it be it Alex, Lena, James, Winn anyone and everyone.

When I was being Supergirl, I used to see Lena standing out at her balcony at L-Corp with a photo of me and her. I couldn't do anything even though she kept sending me flowers, chocolates and many a times tried to have lunch or dinner with me I kept pushing her away. She was being so nice and I was doing nothing to reciprocate. I just had my mind set to not socialize and be alone.

There was national city in need of Supergirl and I did everything to save the people. Bringing down crime was my one main goal and it was almost successful.

Alex and Lena were trying their level best to help me get out of this mess I had made myself. Alex came and checked in on me every night for a few weeks since Mon-el had left until I shut her off telling that I needed some space.

James had given me time to write my story on Supergirl but I had been stalling it with being Supergirl lately I didn't have time to be Kara Danvers the reporter.

Maggie and Alex were getting married and I was happy for them but I was not very cheerful myself so didn't want to ruin their moment.

( At CatCo )

" Hey Kara, how's that one-on-one with Supergirl coming. I know you have been busy being Supergirl but I do need that article too" James said as I was about to leave the office.

" I'm on it. Just a couple of days. I'll get it" I said.

" You know the big unveiling is this weekend"

" James, I have it. It'll be ready by then. I promise. I'll leave now" and I was about to go when we both heard Morgan Edge talking in the news about buying CatCo.

It was then I got to know how James had insulted Edge at the meeting they had before and how he wanted to take him down by buying CatCo.

I went to Lena with this and wanted to talk to her to convince Edge from not buying CatCo. She was very pleased to see me as I entered her office and was vexed on watching Edge's interview and was unable to help me as Edge wasn't a man who could be convinced.

She was  still sorry about what happened to Mon. She blamed herself for it and had a guilt in her eyes and couldn't come up to make eye contact with me while telling how sorry she was. I don't blame her. She did what was I told her. She believes in me as Supergirl and has done everything in her power to save this city being a Luthor.

" Hey please don't beat yourself up about it. It was what was best for the city and you just saved so many lives. You are a good person Lena. You are" As I was telling it to her she had a big smile on her face and had her glassy emerald eyes fixed on me.

She was about to say something but I just made excuses and got out of there.

I was not sure why but for some reason Lena was the only person I was comfortable being with these days. How much ever I tried to keep myself away from her she kept coming back to comfort me. She saw me as just Kara Danvers and not Supergirl.

One of the things that I love about her and also one of the things that bothers me a lot. She being my best friend doesn't know I'm Supergirl. But I hadn't given it a thought and went on being Kara Danvers only for her.

I was about to hop in the elevator when Lena called out from behind, " Kara, could you wait for a second. I needed to ask you something"

" Yea, what is it?"

"I heard you were going to interview Supergirl. James told me about it"

"Yes I am doing a one-on-one with Supergirl. What about it?"

" I just wanted to know if she was free. I know how you both are friends and all. It's just been a while and I haven't seen her lately. "

As Lena was talking about Supergirl I couldn't help but notice how her face had got all pink as if she was blushing.

" Okay, I'll let her know and ask her to meet you when she is free" I didn't stress on the matter as to why she wants to meet Supergirl 'coz anyway I was gonna find out.

" Oh. That would be great!" she said holding my hand with her hands and she looked very excited. At this I was a little curious but I let it pass.

It was strange how she acted on hearing about Supergirl. It was unlike Lena to be that jumpy. As I was starting to think about it I got a call from DEO and I took off.
