Adam Foster
Cat Grant wasn't the woman to lose her cool but when her meeting got canceled because the man decided that getting his grand-daughter a pony was more important than a meeting. She lost it, how was it possible for a business man to put the snobby kid first. Cat didn't have grandkids but she knew that if any of her boys decided to give her grand kids she would be there for the child but with a limit. She would never leave a meeting because the kid wanted a stupid pony for her birthday. Cat stepped out of her car when it came to a complete stop. She was back three hours earlier than she expected but she wasn't going to call her assistant, she hadn't given Keira a day off in a while and even if Cat hated to admit it she knew the girl deserved at least the morning off. When Cat stepped into her office she saw her son pacing in front of her desk.
"Adam," She said gaining his attention. "why are you here shouldn't you be at home with your brother?" The nanny had taken the week off and Adam offered to watch Carter since he was going to be staying for a while.
"I dropped him off at his best friends house, they have a project due tomorrow." The boy explained. Cat was happy to have the young man back in her life, when Adam left he was 17, Cat's ex-husband won full custody and forced Adam to move away from National City. Her boy left and came back a brilliant, 20 year old young man.
"Why are you at my office then?" Cat asked.
"I need to have a conversation with you." Cat looked at her son and noticed how he fiddled with the zipper on his sweater. Adam use to do that every time when he was a kid; when he was going to tell her something huge. Cat gestured for her son to sit down. Adam did as he was told and sat next to his mom.
"Adam whatever it is you can tell me honey." Cat gave Adam a reassuring hand squeeze. Adam took a deep breath, now was a good time as ever.
"Mom before you say anything I need you to be nice okay." Cat chuckled why would she not like what her son was going to say, there was never a reason for her to be really angry at what Adam has done. Adam was always a good boy, yes she had gotten calls when the boy was in high school when her son would ditch a class or two.
"Adam I'm always nice." Cat said in the kindest voice possible.
"Remember the girl I told you that I was dating my freshman and sophomore year." Adam said thinking of the right way to put the words together. "I never introduced her to you because I assumed she already knew I was your son and let's face it mom you are a little intimidating." Cat smiled that was good she didn't mind people being afraid of her the only person in her building that didn't fear her was her assistant and she never understood why. She tried to break the girl her first year as an assistant but there was no luck still everyday the girl would show up with the same smile.
"What so special about this mystery girl that you dated in high school?" Cat didn't see a point in this and she needed to get back to work. She loved having her son back but there had to be some point in what her son was trying to say.
"A week before I left she told she was pregnant and-"
"Adam Foster tell me you didn't abandon the poor girl alone to have you child!" Cat yelled, "I raised you better than that!" Cat couldn't stand men that walked out on the woman they knocked up. Both people were stupid enough to get into the situation, so they should learned to work together. That's why she learned to work with both Adam and Carter's fathers.
"She aborted mom." Adam clarified. "She and I both agreed that the best thing for us at the time was for her to abort." Cat pulled her son into a hug, she wish he would have told her she would have been there for her son.
"Mom I saw her again and I realized I still love her."
"Well who is she?" Cat wanted to know who the girl was, when Adam was in high school he wouldn't shut up about the girl but the boy was always smart enough to never spill the name of the girl.
"Kara Danvers." Adam mumbled looking down at the floor. Cat didn't need to ask twice she had heard the clearly the first time. Both Cat and her son agreed that they would talk to Kara. Now Cat understood why she never broke the girl she had gone through the process of willing choosing to not be a mother because she knew she wasn't ready, Cat knew that must have took a lot of strength to accept that she wasn't ready to be a mother. When Kara walked in Cat waited for her to walk into her office. When Kara stepped in and Cat offered Kara to take a seat and she sat in front of her. Cat told her son to leave Cat didn't know what Kara felt but she knew seeing Adam couldn't be helping much. Adam left with out arguing.
"Would you like anything to drink?" Cat offered.
"No I'm fine." Cat could sense that Kara was uncomfortable.
"Kara my son brought something to my attention." Cat watch as her assistant shot up and got far from her. "Kara I'm not going to fire you if that's what you're worried about. I know that what you went through wasn't easy. Choosing that you were not ready to be a mother must have been hard." Cat saw as her assistant chuckled a laugh. A laugh that any smart man knew that they should stop whatever they were saying and run, but Cat wasn't a man and she was sure she could handle if the blonde got mad. Kara was harmless she wouldn't hurt a fly.
"Oh is that was your son told you." It wasn't a question. Cat opened her mouth but Kara lifted her hand as a signal for Cat not to say a word. "Did your son also tell you that he didn't want me to be pregnant and accused me of wanting some of your money, which at the time I didn't know who the hell you were. Did your son tell you that he dropped me off at the abortion clinic, did your son also tell you that he avoided me the whole week after that because he couldn't even look me in the eyes." Kara could see that all this information was new to her. Of course Adam told her his side of the story, Kara thought.
"He did what?" Cat questioned. Kara didn't answer because she had a call. Cat paid attention to the words Kara was say.
"You're where?!" Kara yelled panicked. "I'm on my way, Winn I swear to god if anything goes wrong I will kill you." Kara continued on the phone but her attention was now on the CEO of L-Corp that was standing in her office. When Kara clicked on her phone she turned around to see Lena. She had forgotten that her and Lena agreed to have lunch together.
"What do I owe this surprise to Lena?" Cat asked the CEO.
"Lena, I'm so sorry but I need a huge favor?" Kara said as she and Lena hugged.
"Anything Occhi Blu." Lena would move the moon if Kara asked.
"I need a ride." Cat was curious about what was going on, since when had Lena Luthor and her assistant been on a first name bases. Kara and Lena walked out and both noticed that Cat was behind them. Lena's driver had left when he dropped her off Kara and Lena were suppose to walk to where they were going to eat.
"Let me give you guys a ride." Cat offered. Kara accepted she was desperate to get to the hospital. Kara gave the driver instructions when all three women were in the car. When they arrived Kara bolted to where she was told and both CEO women behind her. Kara walked into the waiting area and found Alex, Lucy, Winn and oddly enough her English teacher Maggie Sawyer. Kara saw that Mateo was in the arms of her teacher, Kara would ask questions later but right now she had a priority. Mateo saw his mother and reached out for her and Kara took him. She was uneasy but she felt calm when she felt Lena squeezed her shoulder.
"Winn what the hell happened?" Kara yelled at the IT. Everyone stepped back except for Lena who remained near the girl. Everyone else knew that when it came to the twins Kara wasn't the one to play games she would kill someone with out hesitating if it meant her kids would be safe. "And you two where the hell were you guys? I left my kids with you two?" Kara turned around to see Alex and Lucy. Both women hiding behind Maggie.
"Funny story, Kara." Alex said. "You see I went on a date and left the kids with Lucy." Kara removed her death glare from her sister and looked at Lucy.
"Even funnier story I left the kids with Winn because my father came into town for a few hours and Winn was over and he volunteered to watch them." Once again Kara gave Winn the death glare.
"Kara we were playing in the hallway of the apartment and well she tripped and fell down the stairs, there was lot of blood coming from her forehead and well I brought her here and called everyone. The doctor took her in and said that when he was done that he would come get us." Kara then realized the blood on Winn's shirt. She felt the tears wanting to spill but she wasn't going to cry. Kara was too busy trying to think about her daughter to care that the grandmother of her children was in the room. Lena didn't move the whole time she stayed by Kara's side she wasn't about to leave the girl.
"The parents of Marely Danvers." The doctor called out. The group immediately got closer to the doctor. "Are all of you the parents?" The doctor asked. Those who weren't the parents back up but Lena remained by Kara's side.
"How's my little girl?" Kara just needed to know that her daughter was fine.
"I'm Doctor Leon, Marely is doing fine she lost a lot of blood, and needed stitches on her forehead. We did a head CT, and there was no sign of anything bad. Just to be on the safe side I want to keep her over night." He explained. The man took Kara's wrist and placed a wrist band on Kara wrist. "This will allow you to walk around the hospital at night without getting asked questions it states the room number your patient is in. Marely is in room 1043." The doctor informed. He had given Kara another wrist band, Kara was going to give it to Alex but she got a call which caused her to leave and she took Maggie along with her. Lucy left too because she also received a call. Winn had left telling Kara that if she needed anything to call him. There only remained her, Lena, and Cat. Kara knew the look on Cat's face, she always got it when she had questions that she wanted to get an answer to and if she knew Cat well enough Cat was going to be asking her a lot of questions. Kara turned to Lena with pleading eyes she didn't want to spend the rest of the evening and night alone at the hospital. Lena offered a warm smiled and lifted her wrist slightly and Kara placed the wristband on her.
"Thank you."
"Kara is there anything I can do for you?" Cat had questions about the boy in Kara's arms, according to the talk her and Kara and Adam had Kara was never a mother she aborted, but clearly someone wasn't telling her the whole story and in this situation she has a feeling it was Kara because Adam seemed so sure that Kara had gotten an abortion.
"No Miss Grant, Thanks." Kara spoke genuinely happy that Cat offered to help. "Can we please just keep this between us." Kara knew this wasn't the place or time but she wanted to make sure that Cat didn't mention any of this to her son. Lena knew the story so she took Mateo who gladly went to the her.
"I'm going to get us some food and I'll see you in the room." Cat could read the fear off Kara's body and her eyes.
"Are they Adam's?" Yup that was the Cat Grant that Kara knew always straight to the point. Kara never thought that her children could be related to someone powerful like The Queen of All Media, and she didn't want to explain the whole story to Cat but right now she also wanted to run into the room where her daughter was at.
"Cat," This was the first time Kara had ever used her boss's name. "you're a mother and I know you would be willing to do anything for your kids." Kara said.
"Kara what are you getting at?"
"I did and will always do what is best for my children. What I chose was my decision only, and right now the best is for Adam not to be near us please, I'm begging you don't tell him." Cat thought about it for a second. "I will talk to you and let you know what you want to know but please let me have this peace."
"Kara it's not my place to tell my son that whatever mix up you two had he understood wrong." Cat saw as Kara was less tense. "I however want to meet those children they are my grandchildren all I ask is to be able to meet them and about Adam you have three months because that's when he leaves National City and if you don't tell him by then. I will." With those words Cat left. Kara went up to the room were Marely was at. Lena was already there watching as the twins were embracing each other. Kara sat on the edge of the bed and check the time one her phone it was nine at night and the kids should have been in bed thirty minutes ago.
"Bed time story?" Marely asked. Kara chuckled and smiled. Her daughter had just gotten stitches on her forehead but still the little girl remembered that she promised to read a bedtime story. Lena watching in awe as Kara began to say the story and even she was pulled into the story.
"Once upon a time there was this girl who grew up in the castle because her parents had died. The queen being of a kind heart decided to let the baby live in the castle as long as one of the maid would help out. The years went by and the girl became a beautiful young lady. She broke the rules and left the castle after dark. She got lost and couldn't find her way home. This wolf that everyone in her village considered evil protected her from three bears that attacked her. After that night everyday she would go and visit the wolf, she grew to love the beast. When the village found out they tried to kill the wolf but the girl got in the way and saved the beast. When she took her final breath her soul left her body, so did the wolf's soul because they were connected by a powerful bond. The wolf turned out to be her mother who was always looking out for her." Kara looked down and saw the sleeping children. She planted a kiss in there cheeks and smiled. Those kids were defiantly the reason she wasn't crying. Kara hopped off the corner of the bed and sat on the sofa bed next to Lena.
"I got you potstickers, I know their your favorite." Lena mentioned.
"Thank you Lena for this." Kara was grateful she had made friend like Lena. Lena smiled and that smile brought more light into the girls world. Kara ate the food that was bought for her. When she finished Lena and her talked about what had happened when Lena left with Mateo.
"It will all be alright." Lena said lifting her arm and placing it over Kara's shoulder, however Lena was happy that Kara didn't pull away. Kara made herself comfortable and snuggled closer to Lena. The feeling of feeling safe had came back and Kara enjoyed it. Eventually Kara fell asleep and Lena stayed awake a little while longer watching Kara sleep and the twins. Lena hated to admit it but she wouldn't mind waking up like this for the rest of her life but there wasn't a chance for this not in this life time.
