Do tell
Lena POV
She distinguished supergirl's silhouette from the distance, she really is stubborn. I had a long day, and it got worse thanks to her, so there's no way im letting her in. Lena stood up and was ready to lockdown the whole building to let supergirl know she wasn't available, but just as she was about to do so, she noticed that supergirl had a few bags of food. What is she doing?, lena thought.
She was curious as to why supergirl was willing to beg for her forgiveness, she was also hungry, so those were at least two main reasons as to why she may consider to let supergirl in.
--You really think a bag of rubbish is going to win my forgiveness?--
--I was hoping I could score myself some time for an explanation, the forgiveness will depend on you, but the food is already yours.-- Kara replied with a hopeful look on her eyes.
Tempting, that's really tempting. She knew how persistent supergirl can be, if she didn't accept today, she would be back in a few days to talk about it. She just wanted it to be over, and of course, she wanted food. There's one thing she learned since she arrived at National City, people can change their mindset, just like James did with her. Supergirl did help her a lot in the past year, she cleaned her name multiple times and saved her from multiple attempts against her life. She would judge supergirl's point of view, give her a second chance, just like she did with her. Look past this incident to see the girl of steel's true interests. Lena was willing to listen, but that's it, at least for a while. At last she gave in and decided to talk with the kryptonian.
--Is that Big Belly Burger?--
--Yes--
--Be quick supergirl-- as she said that, lena moved her head, pointing to her side.
Supergirl quickly flew right next to Lena, keeping a respectful distance so that it wouldn't feel too invasive or uncomfortable. She slowly reached the balcony's ground and held to its rail.
--Thank you for this Lena-- Supergirl said.
--Don't make me regret it--
I heard a deep breath coming from supergirl, oh boy, this is going to be long.
Kara was staring at the night sky, the shimmering stars and the bright moon while Lena was looking directly at Kara
--I'm really sorry for the way I behaved today-- Lena could feel the intense look coming from the kryptonians blue eyes. --I was really hard on you and I didn't give you a valid reason for you to see things clearly. I got mad at you, but after thinking about it I realized that I was covering my fears with anger.--
Kara took a deep breathe, as she was about to tell Lena about the darkest days she has ever had on earth.
--Two years ago, when I was starting to become supergirl, Maxwell Lord took a huge interest on me. He was scared, he didn't want me here, he was planning on getting rid of me and replacing me with an experiment of his.--
--He was experimenting on girls which brains were proclaimed dead,-- Lena could sense the change on the kryptonians tone, and how she was tensing her jaw at the memory of it --it took seven attempts but he got the results he wanted.--
--It was an exact copy of me, Maxwell was trying so hard to get rid of me to the point of finding out my secret identity and threatening to expose it. He saw that I wasn't giving in, so he decided to make his own kryptonite. He planted a fire, I went there to help and without knowing I got expose to his kryptonite.--
--At first it did nothing, but the next day, I lost control of myself. All of my demons and rage were out in the open, i became a monster.-- Kara shed down a tear as she recalled every single one of her actions that took place on that day. It has been two years already, but it still hurt.
--I said some very nasty things to the people I loved the most, i threw Cat Grant off a Balcony, don't worry I caught her, and terrorized the citizens of national city with my doings. I was no longer a symbol of hope, and everything I had worked for simply disappeared.--
--Then, my cousin got affected by this new kryptonite that was created at the Daxamite attack. It made him see his worst enemy, with is why he thought I was General Zod and tried to kill me and everyone that got in his way.--
Supergirl went quiet for a while, as if she was trying to contain the tears from falling down her cheek.
-- You know, I was supposed to protect him, that was the only thing my mother asked me to do, and I failed.-- She didn't look fine, Lena could tell she was trying hard to to break, so she just continued listening to what supergirl had to say.
--I know that you wouldn't hurt me Lena, I know that you are nothing like those people.-- As supergirl said that, green meets blue, and stayed like that for a while.
--Because I do trust you Lena, I know you, and you wouldn't do anything like that.-- Lena felt those words more than she should of have, after all supergirl did trust her.
--I was scared, kryptonite has only brought catastrophic outcomes, for both me and my loved ones. I love this city, and I would do anything in order to save it, but I cant do that if Im under the influence of artificial kryptonite.-- Lena felt the need to touch the blonde's shoulder, as a sign of support. She wasn't aware of what was going on, this was just something her heart told her to do.
--Im really sorry for what happened today, I should have talked to you like im doing now and try to explain everything. You didn't deserve to be treated like that, and for that im truly sorry.-- The kryptonian placed her hand on top of Lena's, the one that was on her shoulder, and rested there for a few seconds.
Kara broke the silence taking Lena by surprise--That's pretty much it, I won't be taking anymore of your time. Please eat the food I brought, I know that being a CEO consumes a lot of time, and eating tends to be the least of our worries. Goodnight Lena and thank you.--
Supergirl flew up up and away into the dark night sky. Warmth, Lena felt warm for a minute there, she understood everything. Supergirl was scared, just as much as she was when she decided not to tell her about sam. She didn't know supergirl could feel so... human. She didn't know what to think anymore.
