In My Dreams

Chapter 37

"Of course. Start them while they're young. Ruby was basically attached to my hip and it made it harder for when she had to go to school. I'll call you if I need anything but I think it will go smoothly today. Right Allie?"

The baby smiled and made her little noises while grasping a toy that was set out for her. Sam sit next to her on the couch a grabbed another toy.

"Thank you Sam. I appreciate this and I'll be in to check on her every so often" I smile. I say my good byes and head to my office. I wanted nothing more than to go back and hold her but I knew I had a lot of work to do.

Soon I got a text from Kara.

Darling 💙: Good morning. I love you and miss you!

Me 💚: Good morning darling. I love you too. Allie and I will meet you for lunch?

Darling 💙: Absolutely! Cant wait to see my two loves ❤

I smiled at my phone before setting it aside and getting to my paperwork.

Sam's POV

The morning was going by well and Allie was just a sweetheart. I was holding her in my arms tickling her tummy when a knock sounded on my door.

"Come in!" I called. I turned my attention back to Allie and she giggled at me pretending to eat her fingers.

I turned to see who it was and realized it was Alex. I blushed immediately but smiled at her.

"Hi Alex. What can I do for you?" She seemed to be in a daze for a moment before she blinked and shook her head.

"Just visiting. Kara told me you were watching Allie today and thought I would say hello" she says. She walks in and comes over to us. I hand the baby off to her and notice her DEO badge. It was pinned to the chest of her black tactical suit and god I loved that suit. After our eventful night at her apartment we had a heart to heart where she explained everything to me that morning. I didnt want anyone else to see it and didnt want the edges to hurt the baby so I came closer. Alex froze and looked to me.

"Your badge" I whispered. She looked down and I removed it and put it in her pocket.

"Thank you. I dont know how I forgot about that" she chuckles nervously.

"It happens" I shrug. Alex continues to play with Allie and tickles her stomach. The sight of them together melts my heart and I cant help but think that Alex would make an amazing mom.

I suddenly realize I've been staring and turn away.

"I should probably be heading to work. Theres a game night on Wedbesday if you're interested in coming?" Alex says. I grab Allie and our hands briefly touch.

"I'd love to. Ruby has been dying to meet you" I smile.

"I'd love to meet her. Formally I mean. I think I've seen her a few times but it's always been in uniform" Alex laughs. I laugh and look at her fondly.

"Bye Alex" I say softly.

"Bye Sam" I watch her leave and close the door behind her. I look back to the baby in my arms as she smiles at me.

"Your aunt is a thief. Shes stolen my heart you know that?" I smile at her. I kiss her cheek and set her down on the couch to play some more.

Kara's POV

After a long day at work I came home to see Lena and Allie asleep on the couch. It was rare that I came home later than Lena but I loved coming home to this. I sat down next them and turned sideways. I pulled Lena in between my legs and Allie was laying on her chest. Lena's arms were wrapped protectively around her and I put my hands on her little back. I tilted towards the back on the couch so no one rolled off and closed my eyes.

*****

I knew this place. Not just from my past but from a dream. This was a dream. The sight of Krypton made my eyes water and I realized that Lena stood next to me carrying Allie. I reached out to her and caressed her cheek. She leaned into my hand and we started to walk. I gradually started to the see the city I was born in and my heart raced. I was home.

I saw my mother with a smile on her face and I ran to hug her. It felt so good to feel her hug me again. I turned around and gestured for Lena to come closer. She smiled nervously and my mother tightened her hold on me. I looked at her confused and saw her eyes glaring at my wife.

"A Luthor" was all she said before she was dragging me away. I reached out to my wife and child and heard their cries.

"Mother! No! Let them come! They're my family!" I screamed.

"Shes a Luthor Kara. Luthors are only bad and seek to kill us" she responds. She sounds almost robotic and I struggle against her.

She finally stops and spins me to face her.

"You must search for us Kara. Search for your real family" she says. I feel torn. I want more than anything to have my mother back but I will never give up Lena and Allie. I wont ever give up on my family.

"They are my family" I whisper.

The next thing I know I wake up and Lena and my baby are still asleep on me. I tighten my hold on them and close my eyes. I looked down at their sleeping forms and knew what I had to do. I gently extracted myself from underneath them and put a light blanket over them. I kissed both of their heads and prayed I didnt wake them. I changed into my Supergirl outfit and went to the window. I looked back at them once more and a tear escaped my eye. I then took off into the still dark sky and headed for the Fortress of Solitude.

The dreams are back! Honestly it's been hellish so I havent been able to wrote as much so sorry for the very slow updates! Alex and Sam are starting to grow on me so I'll be adding them in a bit more. Hope you like where this is going!
