National Pizza Day
“Is she…?” Winn points at the entrance of the DEO where Kara’s happily skipping with a slice of pizza in one hand and the box of pizza in the other. He checks his watch and frowns. “Are there even any pizza places open? Its 9 in the morning.”
“In New York there is,” Alex says, leaning over his chair to point at his monitor. “Okay so the sightings were congregated there and there…”
Winn shakes out of it and does his job. “Yes yes, that and –“
“Happy National Pizza Day!” Kara shoves the box in front of them.
“Ohhh…I just ate breakfast,” Winn says. At Kara’s slightly downturned lips he retracts his statement.“But I will save one for lunch.”
Kara pulls the box away. “Oh no, it won’t be fresh then. It’s okay.” She turns to Alex. “Want one?”
Alex shrugs and takes the smallest slice. Kara gleefully walks off, munching on more pizza and offering one to Vasquez.
By the time it’s noon, Kara’s come back every hour with a new pizza box from another region in the world. Nearly all of the DEO agents have already eaten at least one slice. It’s impossible to say no to a beaming Kara offering them food.
This time, Kara doesn’t offer the pizza to anyone. She goes into Alex’s lab and gets Alex’s attention by tugging on her lab coat sleeve.
“Is that…” Alex yanks off her gloves and breathes in deep.
“That food truck in Chicago?” Kara opens up the box and lets the aroma waft around the room.
“I love you.” Alex takes a slice of deep dish pizza and moans.
Kara has to take a large bite so she wouldn’t push Alex against the table and kiss her. Food first. And there’s some nice pizza in Italy she wants to get to for tonight. She’ll pick up some wine too and have a nice romantic candle-lit pizza dinner with Alex.
