I'M KARA DANVERS

"Is that Lena Luthor?"

"Yes, I think it is!"

"And is that Supergirl with her?"

"Oh my, it totally is."

The whispers and murmurs followed the pair around the party, but Lena either didn't notice or didn't care. Kara herself couldn't believe she was here, at her own workplace's gala, as Supergirl with Lena Luthor on her arm.

Lena was looking absolutely incredible in a long, silver dress. The back scooped down low, just skirting the base of her spine, and Kara found herself consciously having to resist the urge to place her hand against the exposed skin. The whole thing felt surreal. Kara couldn't even begin to imagine the mathematical probability of every cosmic occurrence lining up just so in order to lead herself and Lena to this exact point. And yet, here they were.

"People are staring at us," Kara whispered out of the side of her mouth into Lena's ear.

Lena gave a small laugh. "Of course they are. A Super and a Luthor together? It'll be the most interesting thing these people have seen all week. Don't tell me you're surprised, Supergirl."

"I guess I shouldn't be. It's just, usually when people stare at me I've just put out a burning building or stopped a runaway train or something," Kara said. She felt incredibly self-conscious with all these eyes on her, but when Lena squeezed her forearm and placed a light kiss on her cheek, all her worries just melted away.

"Don't worry about it. You're doing great," she reassured. "Now, I wonder where Kara is. She said she was going to be here," Lena said, going on her tiptoes to become even taller than her heels made her in order to look across the crowd. "Can you see her anywhere?"

"Uhh, good question," Kara said, feigning like she was looking around.

"Can't you use your super vision or hearing or something?"

"Oh, of course!" Kara made a show of closing her eyes, like she was listening hard, then opened her eyes with a triumphant "a-ha! She's just inside. You wait here and I'll go get her," she said and before Lena could protest, she had whipped away to the inside section of the venue.

As soon as she was out of earshot, she buzzed in on her comLink. "Winn, can you hear me?"

"Loud and clear, Kara, operation Doubtfire is a go!"

"All right, let's do this. Where is my dress?"

"Take the first hall on your left and the supply closet is the second door on your right. All your things are stashed in there."

Kara thanked Winn and walked briskly to the closet, making sure no one saw her go inside. There, she saw a powder blue dress and her glasses folded neatly on a stool.

"You're the best, Winn."

"I only respond to Cupid now."

Using her super speed, Kara changed into the dress and pinned her hair up, completing the look with her glasses before hurriedly heading back outside where Lena was waiting.

"Lena!" she said, almost over-enthusiastically.

Lena looked confused at first, then smiled when she saw Kara. "Kara, hey! You just missed Supergirl; she went inside to look for you, didn't you see her?" Lena asked, craning her neck to look behind Kara.

"Supergirl?" Kara asked obliviously. "No, I didn't see her. Lena, I think I would notice if Supergirl came in looking for me," she scoffed.

"Strange..." Lena murmured with a frown.
