Chapter 2
It was almost 7pm and Lena was exhausted, she only needed to finish 5 more documents before she could go home and finally enjoy her day, or what was left of it.
An hour later Lena walked inside her house, she put her light on while she was welcomed by her cat.
“ hey there” she said with a smile while putting her handbag on the counter. Lena put her hand through her hair before walking upstairs to the bathroom to take a bath. 5 minutes later the brunette got undressed and got in the tub , closing her eyes ,feeling like she could finally relax after a heavy day at work. She hadn’t even closed her eyes for 2 minutes and her phone already went off. Lena groaned.
“ you’ve got to be kidding me”
She opened her eyes and took her phone.
*Kara Danvers is calling you*
“ shit shit shit”
Lena immediately freaked out and dropped her phone into the water while trying to pick up. Her eyes went big , did that-
‘Don’t think Luthor.’
Lena quickly took her phone out of the water before getting out herself and getting a towel. For once Lena was happy that she had one billion dollar company cause a cheap phone definitely wouldn’t have survived this. The brunette dried her phone off before picking up and covering her body with the towel.
“Hey Lena , It’s me, Kara”
“ Yes I remember you, Hi” The brunette said.
“ I’d already texted you but I wasn’t sure if you were busy or just ignoring me”
‘God I would never ignore you’
“ I’m sorry , I was finishing some things up at work”
“ Don’t apologize I- are you okay? You sound like you just ran a marathon” Kara asked with a chuckle.
Lena couldn’t help but smile. “ Yes I am fine, thank you”
“ So I was wondering if you still wanted to go out with me? I know this really cool place and I’d like to take you there , If you want to of course , no pressure” the blonde blurted out.
“ I’d love to go out with you Kara” Lena said with a chuckle. She couldn’t help it but look at herself in the mirror and roll her eyes at that happy smile on her face.
“ Alright ,awesome , how about Friday?”
Lena knew she had a lot of work and meetings on Friday but she couldn’t say no to Kara.” Friday sounds good”
“ Great ,I’ll text you the details later this week”
“ I can’t wait” she said with a big smile, but of course she’d never admit to anybody how excited she is about all this.
“Me neither, I’ll see you on Friday” the blonde said and Lena could hear the enthusiasm in Kara’s voice.
“ I’ll see you on Friday ,Have a good night”
“ You too”
Lena let out a breath she didn’t know she was holding. It had been a long time since had a date with someone and even longer since she had an actual relationship and one of biggest reasons is her last name , the Luthor name.
It was Wednesday morning, another day closer to Friday, to her date with Kara. She was wondering what the blonde had planned, she didn’t know Kara at all so she’d no idea how she was as a person or how her mind worked . Lena had an easy day today, no meetings, no more documents to sign and definitely nothing to worry about. Except her day with Kara of course.
The brunette got ready to meet Sam, she had to ask for some advice, right? She was waiting at noonan’s , and before Lena could even say hello Sam was already smirking at her.
“ Don’t give me that look.” Lena said while her best friend sat down.
“ Lena Luthor is going on a date , how can I not be excited about it?”
“ What if it doesn’t workout , what if it’ll be awkward? What if she doesn’t want to go out anymore when she gets to know me? Does she even know that I am Luthor? What if she-“
“Lena relaxed ,take a deep breath okay” Sam interrupted her. “ Everyone here in National City knows who you are , I’m pretty sure she knows too , which means she wouldn’t have agreed to go out with you if she didn’t want to” Sam said calmly.
“ But what if she doesn’t know?”
“ You really need to stop worrying so much, you need to worry about problems when they’re there ,if they will even be there.”
Lena sighed and closed her eyes, she knew Sam was right ,but that didn’t mean she was going to stop worrying. Lena was about to say something when she got a text.
Kara: Hii
Lena freaked out. “ It’s her, she texted me” She said while looking at Sam.
“ Really? What did she say?”
“ Hi”
Sam couldn’t help but laugh. ”God you really are a mess, just text her back”
Lena rolled her eyes before looking back at her phone.
Lena: hey
Kara: how are you?
Lena looked up at Sam. “ she’s asking me how I’m doing”
Sam rolled her eyes. “ okay here’s the plan , I’m going back home so you can text her and tonight you’ll call me alright?” Sam suggested while getting up.
“What? You can’t leave me now” Lena protested but before she could say another thing Sam had already waved her goodbye.
The brunette rolled her eyes. What the hell was she supposed to do now?
‘think Luthor’
Lena : good , what about you ?
Kara: pretty good too :)
‘Don’t freak out , it’s just an emoji , nothing else’
Lena : shouldn’t you be at work?
Kara : Yes but sometimes when we just finished a big fire we can go home and the the other team comes in.
Lena: a big fire ? Are you okay? Did you burn yourself ?
Lena has never felt this stupid. Did you burn yourself? Really?
Kara: so you’re the funny one of the group huh? I see. But no I’m fine , it was intense but I’m good now.
More like the stupid one.
Lena : I’m glad you’re okay.
Kara: thanks , but I was wondering if 8 sounds good?
What the hell did she mean with that?
Lena: 8?
Lena: 8 PM? For our date on Friday? Unless you don’t feel like going anymore?
Lena: no no no I do want to go , 8 sound perfect.
Kara: awesome , there’s not really a dresscode so feel free to wear whatever you want :) also make sure to wear the right shoes!
Lena: okay now you’re making me curious.
Kara: that’s the plan . Also , you can eat before but like don’t eat to much.
Lena: okay now you gotta tell me something.
Kara: Nope , it’s a secret.
Lena: that’s so unfair.
Kara : i’ll pick you up if that’s alright?
Lena: don’t change the subject! But yes that’s fine.
Kara: awesome!! I’ll see you on Friday then.
Lena: on Friday :)
Lena didn’t even know why she sent that emoji , the only thing she felt was a happy and warm feeling. She was really excited for their date and even though she couldn’t notice herself , she was definitely blushing.
