WARNING: Angst

"Kara?"

"I never wanted you to find out this way."

"I trusted you." Lena's voice was cracking.

"I didn't mean to hurt you."

"But you did"

Kara walked closer but Lena only backed away.

"This was you're plan from the start wasn't it. To get me to trust you. And the act like you were my friend but the truth was you were just trying to get close to me so you could make sure I wasn't plotting anything."

"No Lena that's not true"  Kara begged but Lena kept a stone faced mask.

"Really so the first day you came in here with Clark Kent or should I say Superman you didn't try and snoop around my room? Or what about that time you interviewed me about my mother. Wasn't that just your way of trying to get information out of me?"

She was met with silence. Kara tried to say something, anything, but nothing came out.

"That's really smart you know. Keep that innocent act up and no me would suspect that you'd do something like this. God you even had me fooled. Bravo Kara Bravo." Lena clapped her hands to applaud the superhero. "That was quite a performance"

"Lena let me explain."

"You're only wasting your breathe"

"No listen. Yes I looked around your room when you didn't know. And yes I did use that interview as an excuse to get information out of you. But I if I didn't people were going to hack you. I didn't want them going through your privacy. "

Lena scoffed, "Really that's your excuse. What you did was worse than what they were going to do."

The Luthor was done hearing her excuses" Get out Kara. I don't want to deal with this anymore."

"Lena-" Kara started again but Lena threw a vase in her direction. That of course would not have hurt Kara but she still dodged it because of reflexes.

She looked behind her to find the vase smashed to pieces. Water spilled across the carpet and the Plumerias were scattered lying dead on the floor.

She turns back to Lena to find her with tears steaming. The hero walks up close to her and Lena does nothing but push her away. It was no use her strength wasn't enough and she was just so tired of getting hurt.

Kara enveloped her into an embrace and she didn't push her away this time. She just raked her nails on her back hoping it would cause Kara some pain and Kara didn't stop her. When Lena finally stopped, Kara held her tighter and whispers apologies as Lena cried into her neck.

Lena finally calmed but and loosened her grip on the now wrinkled cape. But Kara didn't care, she'll deal with it another time, Lena is more important.

She still held her close and she didn't want to let go any time soon. Kara leaned down to Lena's ear, "listen Lena, I know I messed up and I dealt with it badly but trust me when I say this, everything else is real, Lena. All those other times I spent with you was because I wanted to not because I wanted to check if you were scheming. Please give me a chance to prove it to you."

Lena pulled away from Kara's grip but she was still staring at the floor so the blonde wouldn't see her face.

After a moment of silence she finally spoke in a broken voice, "Please leave."

Kara opened her mouth to speak again but Lena beat her to it. "I need space Kara. Let me think about it."

Kara was hesitant but she nodded. She knew this was her fault. "Take your time. Call me when you need me" and she exited out in the balcony.
