If you just let me..

For anyone who think that Alex and Lena are making love today, the day after Valentine, you guys are wrong. They don't.
Hug, yes. Kissing, yeah.. Alex is very restrained, and Lena wants to keep her dignity. She had given herself up the night before, "give in". or rather, "asking". And today they don't get drunk, and come back again it's the matter of time, it's about timing , it's day time, like i said, sunrise make it even real. And they can't blame the alcohol after all.
Yes, they were gasping, on Alex's couch, Lena had to lose a few buttons of her blouse, Alex had some hickey marks on her neck and near her ears, hoping her agent at DEO would think all of them were marks of a fight with aliens, or not..
Neither of them dared to step into Alex's bedroom.
Alex move carefully, she know she can't step back, once she pass the line there is no turnback way. And Lena just got out of a relationship.
And the pain of losing Maggie sometimes is still there. The scars haven't disappeared. The sense of trauma is still there too, and Kara isn't here right now, after all Lena is Kara's closest friend.
In keeping her dignity, Lena knows she can't spend the night here, no matter how much she wants it. Lena arrived here at 9 o'clock in the morning. Making out till both stomachs screaming and Alex laughing in her kiss.
Alex cooked her lunch without setting anything on fire, Lena loves the food, simple, warm, and precious, nobody cooks for her, other than her personal chef, yes her real mother did, but it's a long time ago.
It's a simple pasta, which anyone can make. But when she saw Alex making it for her, in hurry, when she found out that Lena's stomach was screaming, the gesture was very sweet for Lena. The strongest agent in United States, and perhaps the smartest, taking care of a Luthor, a family who is the biggest enemy of the organization she leads. Alex's enthusiastic smirk as she finishes her cooking, and how Alex cleans the sauce that stains her face, then licks her own fingers, make Lena's heart mealt.
She felt a little too late to have this kind of feeling, she’s 24 and the feeling was new, genuine..
There was a point in her life when she realized this feeling would never happen to her. But Alex Danvers proved her wrong, then there was a speck of hope in her heart whether this will start well, and end well, can it? may she hope? and for Alex, when she takes Lena downstairs, after having dinner together, take in this time, her favorite Thai restaurant which also happens to be Lena's favorite. Alex escorted Lena to where the driver was waiting in her limousine, her hand gripping Lena's hand from the first time they left the room, in the elevator, to the front of Lena's car. She stared at her face once again, being quite for a while, Lena also looked at her, both of them were silent, so silent, Alex was really nervous and Lena can see it clearly, Alex hopes this is not the last time they would going through this, and this is when Alex starts to consider, can it happen? between her and Lena?
Alex wanted to shake her head, hard, to stop her from imagining it. Before Lena break the silence, while staring so deep into Alex's eyes
"You love Thai's food, either i am."
"Yes.."
"You like horror movies, i like it too."
"Yes."
"You didn't get boring when i'm talking science."
"We don't talking too much today.." Alex grins.
"But Lena, i want to learn more about you, if you let me." said Alex, softly, and Alex's expression changed as she said it.
The grin on her face disappeared, replaced by a soft, loving face.. Lena feels safe with Alex. This strong woman is most afraid of being hurt, but somehow she knows Alex
Danvers would never hurt her, Alex Danvers can't hurt anyone, anything.
Lena just nodded before Alex opened the door for her, tidying the front of her coat, knowing that behind it there were several buttons that were loose. Alex waved at Lena after the woman smiled at her.
And Lena didn't text Alex after she got home. That's too intense, a little too much. Lena was too careful about this, Alex either.
