Chapter Text
Alex Danvers lay in a coma. She had been there for two weeks after running into trouble with a fierce Alien that escaped the DEO secret compound. With the last blast of her high tech gun the Alien had been stunned enough to be captured by agents. But not before the Alien shot some venom her way. A venom that knocked Alex out cold. It wasn't until further tests had been run at the DEO that they found Alex was in some kind of a coma. The tests weren't coming back in the usual way though and they were currently trying to find out why this coma was different. Lena had been working very closely on the problem with Brainy and some medics.
“Alex, I saw mom today, she sends her love,” Kara held Alex’s hand as she sat religiously at her bedside in the DEO Medlab. They would run tests daily and it was vitally important that they monitored Alex properly, she still had a tiny amount of Alien venom running through her veins that had attached itself and they couldn't remove it.
What they didn't realise was that Alex could hear and see everything. And as Kara talked to her she astral projected from the bed to stand behind Kara, she enveloped her sister in a warm hug, but Kara couldn't see her or feel her, although she did feel a little warm.
“Its suddenly gone warm in here,” Kara said to Alex, “I think I may have to ask them to turn the aircon up,” Kara smiled and stroked Alex’s hand, “Do you remember when we went on vacation to Hawaii with mom and dad and they gave us that room with the broken aircon?” Kara chuckled. “Dad went out of his mind and mom managed to book us a different hotel after they said they were fully booked and couldn't give us a different room.”
Kara sighed, she wondered if Alex could actually hear her? But the medics had told them all that talking to the patient was a good thing, so every day Kara spent an hour or more just talking to Alex.
“Then we ended up in an even better hotel,” Alex smiled, “one overlooking the ocean, what I wouldn't give to be back there now with you.”
Of course Kara couldn't hear her, she wasn't aware that Alex was there, standing behind her with a hand now on her shoulder.
After a while Kara got up and left, she needed sleep and Lena had promised to come by any time now to take over. Lena arrived ten minutes after Kara left. She sat down in the chair that Kara had vacated and looked down at Alex’s face. She looked so serene, so peaceful and Lena hoped that Alex felt alright. She knew what an Alien could do to a person's body. Alex was proof of it right now. Lena reached for Alex’s hand, she stroked her fingers and a tear escaped. Lena quickly wiped away her tears not wanting anyone to see her so emotional over a “friend”.
“Can you hear me, Director?” Lena asked, “How could you let this happen? I know it's selfish of me but I miss you. I was planning to tell you how much I loved you and then you went and got yourself hurt.” Lena sighed in frustration. She wasn't really mad at Alex but she was upset at herself for not telling Alex how she really felt months ago. Then maybe the Director would have been more careful out on the field. She had a million maybes stored in her head.
No one knew how Lena felt about Alex, not even Alex herself. But the night before Alex got hurt something had happened between them. Something Lena had told no one.
Two Weeks previously. The night before Alex went into a coma.
Alex and Lena were sitting in the Alien bar downtown, they had gotten a table to themselves and Lena bought a bottle of whiskey. Yes, the whole bottle and she asked for two glasses and some ice.
It had been one of those days. Lena was tired, tired of everything. And now things were changing politically since the President had been outed as an Alien. The anti Alien protests had increased and the city was becoming volatile.
Alex, having seen the stress and worry on Lena’s face suggested they go for a drink together once the day was done, they both needed to let loose for a bit. She might have had a few selfish reasons for wanting to go for a drink with Lena, but Lena wasn't yet aware of them. Alex had a crush on her.
They had been spending a lot of time working together ever since Lena spent more and more time in the DEO, in Alex's lab. And over that time they had got closer as friends and they were both very much attracted to each other. That part went left unsaid.
So here they sat sipping scotch on the rocks and quietly thinking to themselves.
“This was a good idea, thank you for convincing me to come here with you tonight,” Lena told Alex as she raised her glass to her lips. She felt the tension leave her as the warm liquid went down.
Alex smiled at her, “I’m glad you could join me, I usually end up here on my own after work. It's nice to have some beautiful company and the kind that appreciates a good glass of scotch.”
Lena smiled a little shyly, she always felt butterflies in her tummy when Alex gave her a compliment. Here she was a twenty six year old woman having a crush on a friend, “Thank you,” she replied, “you should have asked me before. Why didn't you?”
Alex looked at her unsure how to answer that but she put her mind at rest, “Well it's not because you are a Luthor, it's because I usually like my own company.”
“Well that explains the lack of girlfriends,” Lena’s eyes looked into Alex’s dark amber eyes and now Alex was almost blushing.
Alex looked down at her drink, “I don't really have time for a social life.” The truth was she only had eyes for Lena lately. No one else could compare. What was the point of dating when your heart was with another, even if they didn't know it.
Lena looked at Alex with her short dark red hair combed back and her black leather biker jacket over a plaid blue shirt. The woman was completely gorgeous and could have probably dated any Sapphic woman in National City, “You don't have anyone interested?” she enquired for purely selfish reasons of course, she wanted to know if she stood a chance herself.
Alex shook her head, “Nope, no one. There was this one woman called Becky but I don't know what it was about her, she just used to get on my nerves. She was so clingy and I like my space.”
Lena chuckled and filled both of their glasses, then she sat forward a little and said quietly, “Can I tell you a secret?”
Alex leaned in closer, “Of course, whatever you say won't go any further.”
Well what Lena said next was the last thing Alex was expecting. She was thinking it was something to do with work. Because Alex’s mind was always on her job.
Lena bit her lip, “I find you really, really attractive.”
Alex gulped and sat back, she looked at Lena in surprise, “How many glasses of scotch have you had?”
Lena smiled, “Not enough and no I’m not saying this because my head is a little fuzzy.”
Alex laughed a little then got serious, “Do you fancy taking the bottle back to my place?”
“What a good idea Director Danvers,” Lena stood and handed Alex the bottle, “let's call a cab.”
A little intoxicated Alex pushed Lena against the door of her apartment while she fiddled with the key in her pocket.
“Hurry Director I am getting impatient for a kiss,” Lena teased her.
“I’m trying,” Alex muttered and pulled her key out finally and slotted it in her door. They went crashing through it and Alex kicked it shut with her boot.
As much as Alex wanted to take things further, she always offered the lady a drink before doing anything else, it was just good manners, “Can I get you something to drink?”
Lena licked her lips as Alex walked towards the fridge, “You have a very nice ass, has anyone ever told you that?”
Alex turned around, “Actually no they haven't.”
“They must be blind,” Lena kicked off her heels and placed them by the shoe rack, “and yes please, just water for me.”
Alex took out two bottles of water and handed one to Lena. They both took a good gulp of water and then stood staring at each other. Lena was waiting for Alex to make a move and Alex was waiting for Lena to give her some kind of signal.
“So,” Lena said, taking off her jacket and putting it on a hook by the door, “what now?”
Alex walked up to her, that was all the invitation she needed to take control, she placed her hand to Lena’s face and let her calloused fingers feel the soft pale skin beneath them, she had dreamed about doing this, touching Lena and now she could hardly believe she was doing it, she leaned in closer and placed her lips to Lena’s, her hand moved around Lena’s neck, pulling the brunette closer. Lena wrapped her arms around Alex’s shoulders as they kissed for the first time.
Lena could smell Alex’s lavender soap and her musky sandalwood cologne. She could taste the whiskey on her lips, she sighed into the kiss, it felt so good. Alex’s tender lips captured hers so sweetly.
Alex was lost in the smell of Lena’s perfume, patchouli and rose, (Moroccan orris and a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg according to the box) The perfume wasn't called Witchy Woo for nothing, the scent was spellbinding. Their tongues met and the kiss grew more passionate, Lena pushed Alex’s leather jacket off her shoulders and Alex manoeuvred them up the two steps towards Alex’s bed.
Alex helped Lena off with her dress next while kissing her neck and shoulders at the same time. Lena had her head back and her eyes closed enjoying the feeling of those warm lips on her skin. Alex placed her hands on Lena’s hips then slipped her hand down into her lace panties. She felt the wetness under her finger as she ran it up and down Lena’s slit.
Lena moaned in response and placed her hand over Alex’s, urging her to do more. Alex nibbled Lena’s neck as she slipped a finger inside her and held her close. Lena softly sighed, it felt so good, Alex felt so good and the smell of her all around her was making her weak.
Then Alex turned her around and kissed her again while slipping her finger inside her again. They were still standing there before the bed and Alex still had all her clothes on as she started to slowly rub Lena’s little nub.
“Oh Alex…” Lena moaned, her legs almost too weak to keep her upright. Alex continued to rub as she devoured Lena’s neck.
Lena placed her hands on Alex’s shoulders and then Alex gently pushed her down onto the bed. Lena just sat there with her legs over the edge of the bed and waited for whatever Alex wanted to do with her next, she wasn't fussy, she just wanted to feel loved by her.
“I want to taste you,” Alex said looking at Lena with pure lust in her dark eyes, “I’ve wanted to know what Lena Luthor tasted like for a very long time.”
Lena looked up at Alex with a smirk that would melt butter and slipped her panties off, she held them out to Alex who took them and put them in her pocket for safe keeping, then she got down on her knees in front of Lena.
Alex lifted Lena’s legs up and over her strong shoulders and she didn't waste time taking her first taste. Lena lay back, closed her eyes and nothing could describe the sheer pleasure she felt as Alex licked her for the first time. She could feel her warm tongue moving up and down her slit and then entering her and finding her clit and sucking on it.
Lena’s hips jerked when Alex sucked, it was so sensitive to the touch, so Alex went a little more carefully, gently licking around it until it was fully engorged.
“I want your fingers,” Lena managed to breathe after a while. Alex had been very much enjoying just tasting her, licking and prodding with her tongue.
Alex took two fingers and gently pushed them into Lena’s eagerly awaiting warmth, “You're so beautiful,” Alex told her, “you taste wonderful. Just like I imagined.” She lapped at Lena’s now throbbing clit as she fucked her with those two fingers.
“Yes!” Lena moaned, “fuck me harder Director!” Lena cried out. Her walls contracted as she squeezed Alex's fingers.
Alex gave her everything she could muster, she had three fingers curling upwards and hitting Lena’s sweet spot as she sucked on her now engorged clit. Alex felt Lena’s arousal cover her fingers and she knew Lena was close to coming, “God you taste amazing, cum all over my tongue baby.”
Those words sent a wave of euphoria rushing through Lena and the warmth of her orgasm captured her in wave after beautiful wave. Alex fingers thrust in and out. Lena squeezed them and her walls contracted trapping them there, she cried out Alex's name when she came. Her climax was so strong that Alex hoped her fingers would survive.
Lena’s body went limp and she felt breathless. Then Alex gently removed her three fingers and licked them clean. Then she got up and carefully helped Lena onto the bed.
Lena took off her bra and watched as Alex undressed fully. Then she pulled the duvet across so Alex could get in beside her.
Lena took Alex’s face in her hands and kissed her hard, “That was wonderful.”
Alex licked at Lena’s lips and Lena tasted her essence on them, then Lena pulled Alex down on top of her and they kissed deeply. Next Alex moved downwards and devoured Lena’s breasts, “I always wondered what these felt like too,” Alex commented as she kissed them, bit them, licked them and worshipped them.
Lena put her hands in Alex’s hair as she became aroused again and soon she was begging Alex to part her thighs and fuck her again.
Then Alex reached to the bedside cabinet and took out a strapless dildo, she inserted one end into herself and then moved on top of Lena.
Lena looked down at the toy, half in Alex and resting at her slit and she softly moaned as Alex’s hips drew forward and the toy entered her fully.
“Oh Alex yes,” Lena wrapped her legs around Alex’s waist pulling her in deeper. Alex started to thrust faster and the toy within her rubbed against her throbbing little nub. It wasn't long before Alex was coming and Lena was right behind her chasing her second wonderful orgasm of the night.
It was 5am when Alex was awoken by an alert on her phone. She was needed at the DEO immediately, a very dangerous and hostile alien had escaped from their desert facility and was now on the loose. Alex quickly got up, had a very quick shower and was out of the door before Lena had even woke. She texted her a message once she got to the DEO. Alex kept the message light, she wasn't sure how far Lena wanted this to go, if anywhere.
Lena,
Sorry I had to rush off. Something came up. I'll probably be at the DEO all day if you need to reach me.
Last night was wonderful. Maybe we could hook up soon and let off some steam again.
She used a wink emoji and a kiss emoji, then she signed off with Love Alex.
Well that was the last time Lena heard off Alex. And now here she was in the DEO medlab trying to stop the tears from falling as Alex lay there motionless. They had only just found one another and now she was losing her. Lena lay her head on Alex’s chest to listen to her heartbeat, “I never had a chance to talk to you, after we made love,” she whispered to Alex so no one else would hear, “I have to tell you how I feel, please wake up.”
Alex was there and she could feel Lena’s hand holding hers, she desperately wished she could wake up for her but something was stopping her, “I love you Lena, I wish I could,” Alex told her in frustration.
But of course Lena couldn't hear her. It was then that Alex decided she was going to astral project herself and follow Lena home that night. She had to try and make her see that she was still there with her. Somehow, someway, Alex would get through to her.
