dress up
The first time Kara had dressed up she was 13 years old and very new to earth. The Danver’s had been invited to a family friend's wedding, and by extension, Kara. Eliza had decided to take Kara and Alex to find new dresses. Kara recalled that day with joy, it was when she and Alex first started getting along, as when Kara was first welcomed into the Danvers’ home, Alex wasn’t very happy to have a new sister. But within the shopping trip around the two month mark was when they really started being each other's best friend. And ever since that trip, Kara had fallen in love with dressing up and dressing up fancily occasionally. When Alex had told her three months ago that Sam had proposed, Kara freaked out and immediately offered to help Alex pick her outfit (and they had went shopping a couple times before they found a simple wedding dress that they were both in love with), and when Alex had given her a box containing a white shirt that said “bridesmaids #1/ maid of honor?” in gold, Kara had screamed and excepted, and then proceeded to wear the shirt for the next three days in pride.
So now, as she strolled down the downtown area heading towards the first bridal boutique, wearing leggings and a soft t shirt (casually showing off her biceps) she proudly wore a huge grin on her face as she was about to do a couple of her favourite things, dress up, meet new people (she had been told she was going to be meeting sams bridesmaid/ maid of honor as well at the boutique), spend time with her sister, and see her sister happy. When she finally reached the shop, she pushed open the door to see Alex hugging another brunette with Sam at her side. The bell rang, signalling her arrival, and Alex rushed over to pull her inside and give her a quick hug. Next Kara pulled her soon to be sister-in-law in for a hug and a quick “so good to see you again, Sam!” Then, Kara was pulled over to where the mysterious brunette had been standing, and she was finally introduced while she was gawking.
Alex nudged her hardly in the ribs when Kara didn’t reply to either Lena’s “ I’m Lena, it’s nice to meet you, I’ve heard alot about you” (she really had, even when Sam had first started dating Alex, Sam had constantly told Lena about Alex’s cute baby sister that is totally dateable), and her outreached offered hand.
“O-oh! Right. Hello, Lena, I’m Kara,” she responded and put her own hand into Lena’s, shaking it as she desperately hoped they weren’t very sweaty like she had predicted, “I hope it’s all been good things…” she side glanced towards sam and alex, standing together with matching smirks, “It’s nice to finally meet you too,” Kara bit her lip and quickly (though not subtly) looked Lena up and down. “So.. can we get started?” she asked after briefly locking eyes with Lena and turning away with a flushed face.
“Right! So, Sam and I have been here for about an hour, and we’ve picked a couple different dresses we’d like you guys to try on. Like we’ve explained before, you guys won't be wearing the same dress, but we’d like them to me the same or very similar in colour. We know Lena won’t go for strapless, but doesn’t mind off the shoulder, and Kara will wear anything you put her in, but she prefers not to wear anything with a lower neckline. So, the colour schemes as you both know and have agreed to is the mauve/dusty pink, red, or navy blue. So.. if you’d like to get started, let's go!”
The assistant handed Kara the first dress picked out, which was a deep red dress with a strapless neckline. Lena was handed the same dress with thin, spaghetti type straps. The two girls went back to their own designated changing rooms and got to work on dressing. Kara stared at herself in the mirror in the first dress, many minutes later, with a frown. While holding the top part of the dress, she walked out of the room and back to the two brides who had been talking and enjoying the complimentary champagne. Lena followed suit, appearing to be doing the same as Kara by holding up the top.
“Well um..the dress doesn’t have much to cling to to hold it up by itself,” Kara explained, motioning to her smaller chest.
Lena raised an eyebrow, “it appears I have the opposite problem. I have too much weight to cling to and my boobs are going to snap these thin straps from the weight of my boobs,” Lena frowned and looked over at Kara with a sigh. “So.. these two are no’s?”
Both the brides agreed with them, and then they were given the next dresses to go try on. Kara was handed a nude/blue dress, with a soft sweetheart neckline and straps that would reach just above her knees, meanwhile Lena was handed a blue body con dress with ¾ sleeves. Once again they both went to their respective dressing rooms to change. Just as Kara was about to unzip her dress, she heard a groan and then a “Sam!” from Lena’s dressing room. A couple seconds went by, and nothing but radio silence came from Sam, so Lena tried again. “Sam?!” and once again, nothing. Lena huffed and mumbled a “for fucks sakes,” under her breath. That’s when Kara left her room and walked across the hall to Lena’s and knocked on the door. When Lena opened the door quickly, thinking it was Sam, she sighed with a flushed face once she realised it was Kara.
“Is everything.. Okay?” Kara asked, almost too scared to ask.
“Yes..no, I don’t know. Would you.. Would you mind unzipping me? I-I can't with these ridiculously huge boobs in my way, so I called Sam but she’s probably ignoring me on purpose so..”
“You they are pretty big,” Kara blurted out as she found herself staring at them when Kara realised what she said a hand clapped her mouth shut, and she looked up at Lena’s face with wide eyes in horror, only to be met with a grin and a singular raised brow in amusement. “I-I’m so..” she began to apologize, but Lena cut her off by placing a hand onto Kara’s wrist, pulling it down and away from her mouth.
Lena giggled and shook her head “it’s okay. They are pretty big and annoying sometimes, but they always get the pretty girls speechless, so..” Lena smirked at her before turning around and moving her hair out of the way, “so?”
“So.. what?” Kara asked, completely shocked by their encounter, that she had forgotten the reason she had come over to Lena’s dressing room.
“So.. Do you mind unzipping me?”
“Oh! Right, yes, of course,” Kara reached forward and carefully pulled the zipper down until she was able to get a clear view of Lena’s ass covered in a small lace thong. Once again Kara’s eyes widened and she pulled away. “Okay so.. You’re good? Do you need anything else?” she asked politely, biting her lip with nerves.
“What about a date?” Lena suggested as she turned around to face Kara, using one hand to hold the dress up and be somewhat modest.
“I-i.. what?” Kara’s eyes would’ve bulged out of her head if they could’ve. “C-can you, uh, repeat that?”
“You heard me, a date. I’ll pick you up, say Friday at eight?” Lena suggested casually, all of a sudden playing it cool, however much nerve racking this encounter really was.
“Oh, uh, um, y-yeah. T-that’s perfect, actually, a-are you sure?” Kara started fidgeting with her fingers
“Of course I’m sure. Now we should probably get changed before they come back here and see us.. Like this. That wouldn’t be awkward, at all,” Lena chuckled slightly and pressed a kiss to Kara’s cheek, leaving both of them with a smile. Lena kicked Kara out of the dressing room and sent her back to her own, and a couple minutes later when they came out blushing, they stayed quiet and had the brides evaluate the dresses.
Six months later as they’re getting undressed after the wedding in Lena’s bedroom apartment, Kara turns to get girlfriend and smiles, “I thought getting dressed up with you would be my favourite activity, but now I’m certain it's getting undressed with you,” she teased and unzipped Lena’s pink dress, leaving kisses along the way.
