The Question

It was now 6 months later and things seemed to have died down. There were no more frequent paparazzi outside Lena's house, they weren't on the front page everyday and the whole thing over her name seemed to just be accepted. Some people called her Kara, some people called her supergirl.

The couple had started going out in public together more often. Of course Kara would not wear anything close to resembling her Kara Danvers look. It would be much more relaxed and casual, except for a few date nights where she wore something fancy.

They had also been visiting Micheal and taking him places as often as they could. Mostly together but sometimes at different times if they were free. Both of them had experienced something similar to Micheal so visiting him was like a way of making up for all the time they lost with their parents and giving it somewhat to Micheal. Even if they weren't his actual parents.

However, soon that would hopefully change. They talked about it a lot, like A LOT, and decided they wanted to adopt Micheal.

Kara thought about it so much at work that she was surprised she got any work done. She had been sat in her office all day working on an article bored out of her mind. She looked out the window and groaned, why was today going so slow?

She looked over at one of the drawers in her desk. She pulled it open then cautiously took something out. It was a small black jewelry box. She flicked it open to look at what she already knew was in there.

A small ring sparked in the sunlight. The band was a simple rose gold but the diamonds on top was unique. It was the traditional diamond shape but had the symbol for the house of el carved out in the jewel. Bordering the main diamond were tiny little diamonds that perfectly finished off the ring.

" There'll be time for you yet."

......

Lena had been non stop all week. The mix of trying to make sure L-corps new release was ready on time, trying to keep the board off her back, making sure investors are happy and also filling out Michael's adoptio. papers was really taking its toll. She collapsed front first on to the couch in her office and pressed her face into the arm rest. She groaned loudly into the cushion before turning on her side and getting comfy.

She was on the verge of falling into a deep sleep when suddenly a certain blonde came charging in.

"Leennaa." She groaned collapsing in the middle the floor and spreading out her limbs. " I'm BOORREEEDDD." She loudly exclaimed.

Lena rubbed her face in her hands and rolled her eyes. " Hello to you too." she let go of her face but still rested her head on the arms rest. "What do you want me to do?"

The super flopped her head to the side and looked straight at her girlfriend. "I don't know. Let's go do something."

" Like what?"

"Uhhh." She propped herself up on her elbows. " How about food?"

" Not hungry."

" Walk?"

" Too tired."

Suddenly, the blonde bum shuffled over to her girlfriends side. She rested her arms on the couch then placed her chin on them. She was mere centimetres from Lenas face. "We can go to that little gazebo on the cliff where we had our first date and watch the sunset."

" Kara-."

" Lennaaa. Please." She pleases with her desperate puppy dog eyes.

The raven dug her face deeper into the couch before taking a deep breath and turning back towards the blonde. " Fiinnnee." She groaned.

"Yay." Kara squeeled excitedly pecking the CEO on the lips then jumping up. Where something nice. "Ok I'll pick you up at 7." Kara stated walking towards the door.

" What do you mean you'll pick me up at 7? You live with me."

" JUST TRUST ME!" Kara shouted as she walked out the door.

The Luthor rolled over on to her back, she watched as the door to her office slowly shut. " That girls going to be the death of me."

.......

It was just past 6:00 when Lena finally got through the front door of her house. When she went upstairs to have a shower she passed a box on her bed. There was a note on top that she cautiously picked up. It read:

'Dear my beautiful Lena

I hope you had a good day and I'm sorry if I irritated you earlier. Here is a little something I got for you to wear. It highlights your beauty and will make you seem out of this world. You might find it a bit wierd but you are the only one I trust to share this much of my planet with. I know you'll look beautiful.Love Kara. Xxx

P.s Alex is coming to pick you up at 7.'

She slowly took the lid off the box to reveal a white silk dress. It had long sleeves that were transparent and gold rims. A white collar was surrounded by white straps that pointed towards the finishing touch. This was a traditionally shaped Kryptonian crest but instead of the Iconic 'S' it was the two lined L that made the L-corp symbol.

Once she had laid it out on the bed she couldn't help but smile. She brought her clamped hands to her face and swayed from side to side. It was so elegant and reagal looking. She wanted to put it on right away but needed to take a shower and do her hair again.

.....

40 minutes had passed since Lena had gotten home and she was already panicking. She only had 20 minutes until she was being picked up and she still had to do her hair, put the dress on and find some shoes to wear.

After much struggle she finally finished her hair. It was wavy and lush looking with a braid wrapped around her head.

She carefully slipped the dress on and put on her heels. She turned around to admire it in the mirror and she couldn't help but smile. It was beautiful. It fit well in all the right places and hung loosely towards the bottom of her legs.

She admired it it for a bit longer before hearing the doorbell echo through the house. She quickly tidied up her desk before making her way down stairs to the front door. When she opened it she was greeted by the tall red hairs woman.

" Alex." Lena said lovingly pulling her into a hug. When they pulled away Alex smiled at the Luthor.

" Come on. Kara's waiting."

Their drive was quite quiet. When Lena tried to ask a question Alex would only answer with. " You'll see."

As the vehicle made it's way up towards one of the cliffs Lena gazed out at the view. The sun was beginning to set and the light shone on the water. It looks so peaceful.

They finally came to a stop on a small gravel road. Lena could just about see the wooden gazebo that Kara had mentioned. She looked back across to Alex.

" Aren't we going to get closer?" Lena asked.

" I'm under strict orders from my nagging sister to not go within 50 metres." Alex replied a bit confused herself.

" What in God's name is that girl up to?" Lena said to herself.

" All will become clear soon. Now go. Go to Kara." Alex ordered starting to swat Lena out her car.
