"Why are you so angry?" Alex asked running after the angry chef as they made their way through the hallway to her father's apartment.
(Y/n) suddenly swung around. "You know why I'm angry Alex!"
" He deserved it. " Alex shrugged, it had been quite fortuitous that the very man (Y/n) had spent hours complaining and hating on had actually turned up.
That had been his first mistake, his second was being an absolute douche towards (Y/n).
"Err chef the reject from planet hate a chef is here," Carlos said softly outside the freezer, he didn't want to go inside and risk seeing anything he shouldn't although who did anything like that in a walk-in freezer full of dead animal corpses?
" What, he is actually here? " (Y/n) popped her head around the door, Carlos tried to hold in his laughter.
"Yep."
" Right the massive piece of turd! " (Y/n) rubbed her hands together greedily. "I'll be right back Alex I have to throw out some trash."
Alex chuckled.
The chef strode angrily towards the kitchen, where a medium-sized man stood his hand braced upon his hip as he checked out a waitress as she bent over to pick something from the ground.
Sleazeball. "I assume you are the assassin of my kitchen." ( Y/n) braced herself crossing her arms over her chest.
He sneered revealing teeth that were both too big and vastly too white he looked like a Mr. Ed if he'd been employed as a model in a teeth whitening commercial.
"Well, what do we have here." He ran his eyes up the length of her body stopping at the shapely form of her chest mostly hidden by her chef whites.
(Y/n) rolled her eyes, the man was pathetic. "Hey excuse me, Mr. Ed my eyes are up here."
" But it is a better view down here. "
"Sadly for you, I'm a human woman, not the blow-up kind you're used to and I will punch you, what are you doing here?"
" I'm here to work of course. "
"Nope, Cat says she fired you and as she is not one to be afraid of firing anyone, and with a face like yours I imagine she really went to town with the insults, you are here illegally, so leave now."
"Oh sweet you have this notion that I cannot twist her around my little finger, she is, after all, an older lady she is easy."
" Not if my father's fists connect to your face you won't be able to. " (Y/n) hissed, dammit if anyone was going to break her father and Cat up it would be her, but even she hadn't thought about it, she may have changed vocal sparing sessions with her stepmother but she wasn't a bitch.
"So I am here you may leave now little girl."
(Y/n) raised an eyebrow. "Do you even know who I am?"
" A wannabe Miss January in a nude calendar. " He shrugged.
"Is there a problem?" A stern voice asked behind her, ( Y/n) cringed at the smug smirk the corners of his mouth turned up and the front row of his teeth were exposed.
"Nothing Alex he is just leaving."
" I'm really not. "
Alex moved closer like an ominous soldier her movements menacing and deliberate until she stood next to (Y/n) and right in front of him.
"She told you to leave, so move before I move you."
" Alex please it's okay. "
The man laughed. "Oh my God wait a minute are you and her no wonder you seem to have the hating guys' thing going on."
" I don't hate guys. " (Y/n) protested. I just find Alex far more interesting and definitely more attractive.
Alex had watched the whole of his interaction with her until she couldn't hold back anymore.
"I will give you five seconds to leave if not I'm going to punch you so hard you'll have to shove a toothbrush up your ass to brush your teeth!"
He laughed again throwing his head back to add drama.
(Y/n) groaned. "Oh God don't laugh."
"One."
"Oh come on what harm could a little woman like you do?"
" Two. "
"I'm really not frightened I am a man, you are so tiny."
" Three. "
"This is so stupid."
" Four. "
"You will just be humiliated."
" Five, I did warn you. " Despite her warning, it was still a shock for him when Alex pulled her arm backward and slammed it forward until with a pained crunch it met his face and he landed with a great thumb on the ground.
Alex turned to (Y/n) "I did warn him don't be angry."
"Excellent Alex now I have a passed out Sunflower on my kitchen floor, be useful and at least do something with him."
" What? "
"I don't know repot him or something, just get rid of him."
"Am I still invited to the pizza thing?" She shouted after an angry ( Y/n).
"Yes."
"Phew that was close, what the hell am I supposed to do with this guy? Does anyone have smelling salts?"
" We could dig a hole in the back and bury him. " Someone suggested.
"No (Y/n) wouldn't approve I like your thinking though." She pointed to him in approval.
"I punched him because he was disrespecting you, I had a valid reason this time."
" God Alex I love you to death but you drive me crazy sometimes I swear. "
Alex beamed at her her eyes sparkling with such happiness (Y/n) thought it would blind her.
"What?"
" You said it. "
"What did I say?"
" I quote God Alex I love you to death. "
"Ah."
" Ah indeed. "
"I...well it just slipped out."
" I know but it was still nice to hear I've missed you saying them. "
(Y/n) tensed. "Did you say them to her?"
" Not as I did when we were first together, I just didn't feel them to be true, I had loved her but there are many kinds of love aren't there? "
"Yes."
" You are my forever kind of love (Y/n). "
(Y/n) smiled a little. "Come on let's go and get Carter or he will think we're not coming and Kara will send out a search party for the pizza."
" Err will your Dad be there? "
"Nope lucky for you Alex, he is busy with the seven missing women he is obsessed that there will be an eighth."
"He hates me now, doesn't he? "
"Yes, he does."
" Oh. "
"Good thing it's not him you want to date then right?" She smiled at her brightly revealing the slight dimple that appeared on her chin only when she truly smiled or really frowned.
"He isn't my type." Alex shrugged moving closer to risk a quite kiss before pulling away too quickly.

"Okay so we are lucky Kara isn't here and Alex has a key." (Y/n) smiled bumping into Alex playfully. "And I mean lucky because we would have nothing left for us." She winked at the boy who chuckled.
It had been lucky that Alex had a key, they got straight down to creating the perfect pizzas they would be better she had promised than any restaurant, well that she wasn't working in of course.
Lined up in a cramped line in Kara's tiny kitchen Alex, Carter and (Y/n) had set about their tasks with (Y/n) giving instructions as they went along.
"Okay now because this isn't bread we are making we do not need to let the dough stand to rise so we can pretty much just put everything we want on top."
"Carter can I please change your mind about the chocolate because it sounds awful."
"Chocolate pizza rocks."
"Carter is having chocolate so we're gonna have to melt the chocolate first otherwise it's just going to be a stodgy mess when it gets out of the oven, so get the chocolate from the fridge and a saucepan, also a bowl and fill the saucepan slightly with water."
The boy enthusiastically did as he was told as (Y/n) pulled out the sauce she had already made to place on the pizza base.
"Which chocolate?" Carter asked.
"How much does she have?"
Alex shook her head. "You really do not want to know."
"OMG who buys this much chocolate?" (Y/n) asked stunned by a whole shelf of just chocolate.
"Kara is the coolest." He beamed in delight.
"One bar if I take you home as high as a kite your Mom will hang me out the window and drop me." (Y/n) cringed, Alex leaned closer and whispered into her ear. "Good job you can fly."
"Tell me about it, I'll need that when I have to flee from kara."
Suddenly the door to the apartment flew open and with dramatic flare Kara stormed in. "I smell pizzas."
(Y/n) turned to Alex a puzzled confused look on her face. "They aren't even cooked how the hell does she do this?"
Alex chuckled as she continued slicing her mushrooms.
"You were going to eat them without me weren't you?" Kara said with a thick suspicious cloud to her words.
"We just wanted to get started Kara, of course, we weren't going to." (Y/n) shrugged innocently.
"Liar!"
"Come on would I lie to you?"
"Yes you would, probably wanted to give Alex more, I knew I shouldn't have been on board with you two you are ganging up on me."
"She really does go nuts when there is food around, a bit conspiracy theorist." (Y/n) said quietly to Alex, it had seemed easy to slip into the role with her after everything that had happened she didn't think she would be able to even stay in the same room as her for more than a few moments.
"Shut up Kara and get over here (Y/n) already made your pizza dough," Alex said as kara's eyes turned to the chocolate pulled out of her fridge.
"He isn't eating it all!" (Y/n) said her palms raised out in front of her.
"Yeah (Y/n) said only one chocolate bar because my Mom would throw her out of a window." Carter nodded cutting the chocolate into squares and putting into the bowl in the saucepan now filled with boiling water.
Kara paled remembering a time when she had some something like that to Cat, although it hadn't really been her fault, she tried to clear the memory away. "Okay, so what do I do?"
"Not burn the kitchen down I am running low on kitchens right now and as Lena is getting heavy with Mr. Square I can cut glass on my jaw, Wayne, you are all I have Kara."
Alex wanted to shout out and offer hers, but caution held her back.
"Bruce Wayne is cool." Carter smiled.
"Really, well there is no way I am letting Lena move to Gotham if it gets serious, they have Batman and that guy has been letting a clown with freaking bright red lipstick terrorize the city for God knows how long, Lena does not like clowns and nor do I."
"Why?"
"Are you kidding me what the heck is right about them?"
Everyone laughed.
"Once my Dad had a girlfriend and OMG she wore so much makeup one morning I woke up and bumped into her after she'd had a really bad night her make up all smudged and smeared, I actually screamed." (Y/n) cringed at the memory. "That was just after he broke up with Cat, at that moment I thought jeez I guess that woman is not so bad, at least she doesn't leave her face imprint everytime she lays on a pillow."

"So last night was fun." Alex smiled as she and (Y/n) walked up the hallway at the DEO, she may have had to watch her leave early to take Carter home but the warm smile she had given her just before she walked through the door had been the last thing she saw before she fell asleep.
"What you mean getting attacked by Kara, that woman fights dirty she kicked me in the face, all over a pizza slice." (Y/n) rubbed her chin remembering the chaos that had ensued.
"She did burn hers."
"How did she manage that, they all went in together."
Alex laughed but stopped abruptly when she saw who waited ahead of them, she turned to (Y/n) to see her reaction.
"Hey, Alex you brought my favorite snack I see." Sara smiled seductively at (Y/n), her suit hid her true identity but sometimes Alex wondered whether the blonde woman knew who really was under the suit.
(Y/n) blushed quickly turning away as she watched Alex's questioning glare.
Damn, she saw.
"And she blushes you know what that makes right Alex, the perfect woman."
Alex growled. "Cut the crap Lance I'm going to kick your ass today."
"Err Alex." (Y/n) said cautiously pulling her away from the smug faced woman. "I don't think you're supposed to kick her ass."
"I've kicked Kara's ass loads of times I'm not going to take it easy on a woman who is eyeing up my...maybe girlfriend."
(Y/n) rolled her eyes. "Technically Superwoman is not and never has been your girlfriend."
"Sara Lance is not having anything to do with you whether you are Superwoman or (Y/n)," Alex said stubbornly, (Y/n) wanted to smile she looked so cute her lips a firm line and her arms crossed firmly over her chest.
(Y/n) bit back the urge to point out that Sara Lance had had both (Y/n) and Superwoman but she really didn't think Alex would take well to hearing that and that side of her who wanted to hurt her was slowly quietening.
"Come on Alex or are you getting scared." Sara goaded.
"Just chill out first." (Y/n) whispered to her, Alex looked over to where Sara stood making kissing gestures with her lips and pointing to (Y/n).
"I'm going to kill her."

"Such a shame you didn't invite the hottie in the cape to join us." Sara smiled dodging a punch.
"Supergirl is busy today, it would be selfish to ask her to watch this," Alex replied lunging forward again and each time being blocked and pushed away.
"Oh nice one Agent Danvers, you know I meant Superwoman, she is so sexy that chin and dimple there, I spent a few nights wondering how that would feel under my tongue."
With an angered roar Alex ran forward trying to catch the blonde woman with a blunt attack, she ushed her behind her, but Alex managed to maneuver her arm backward and pull her down, watching as she stood over her triumphantly.
Sara coughed but leaped back to her feet. "Are you always this soft or is this a new development?"
Alex rolled her eyes and prepared to attack again.
"Of course then there are those lips, I've only ever seen lips as plump and delicious as that once before, you know that right Alex?"
"What are you talking about now?"
"(Y/n) didn't you think her lips were like two cushions of silk, tasted like the most divine candy too, I could just feast on them all day." Sara said smugly watching in delight the other woman's reaction.
"Shut up and get back to work."
"I'm not stupid Alex, I know (Y/n) is Superwoman I realized the night I kissed her in the alley, she smells like her, looks like her well her lips and chin anyway, then there is her kiss." She fanned herself for added effect. "Wooo that woman knows how to kiss, just the right amount of tongue right?"
"(Y/n) dumped you." Alex said annoyed.
"I know but Alex unlike you I don't give up."
"She is mine!"
"Yeah but all is fair in love and war Alex, and I like to play, I'm really good at it just ask (Y/n)."
"Touch her and I will kill you!"
Sara walked closer, so close their noses nearly touched "I already did, more than a few times actually each time she moaned my name I should have recorded that bit for you."
"Back off lance!"
"Is that the only way you can get her Alex if you have no competition, and I will win, I've never hurt her, I never looked into another woman's eyes and fucked her as she sat alone and cried for me."
"It wasn't like that." Alex protested the truth of her blunt harmful words hit like an arrow to the heart.
"No really, because that is what (Y/n) believes, I'll have (Y/n) and Superwoman we will be quite the crime-fighting partnership won't we? What do you think the media will call us? how will they ship us? I was thinking something like SuperCanary or maybe that is taken, maybe something like SuperBlack, SupCan or Suary.
"They are all stupid!"
"Maybe but who cares because I will have (Y/n)."
"She loves me."
"Love means nothing when you can't trust someone."
"What (Y/n) and I are to each other is nothing to do with you, why do you think she dumped you in the first place it was for me."
Sara narrowed her eyes for a moment her bravado cracked.
"It doesn't matter I may be called the Canary but I know how to roar and I am all in this Alex, so get ready because I am not giving up, how long do you think (Y/n) will be able to hold out? How long do you think it will be until she has to rekindle the memory of how our kiss was?"
Alex felt her blood boiling, her anger soaring with rage she turned away and slammed the door.
Sara laughed.
Alex stormed with purpose down the hallway trying to ignore the urge to punch a hole in the wall, the blonde woman's words still echoing around in her head was she right? would she win, would (Y/n) want her?
"(Y/n) a word please." She said sternly the other woman looked up from where she was sat going through a magazine with Winn, she frowned.
"Are you okay Alex?"
"Just please can we talk."
"Sure okay."
Following behind her concerned.
"What is the matter?" Her eyes ran over her face trying to detect what the matter was.
"Sara she just wound me up, I couldn't think straight and I needed to see you need to talk to you."
"What did she say?"
"She knows you are Superwoman."
"What, how?"
Alex cringed at her description. "Don't ask."
"Oh, okay, but Alex that was what wound you up?"
"She said that you would choose her." Her voice was a soft sad whisper.
"And you think now that I will."
"I...I wouldn't blame you if you did."
"Sure but Alex you still don't understand, I've never had anyone like you before you make me feel things I never experienced, just if I look into your eyes I feel my breath catch, just holding your hand warms my soul, you are worth a second chance Alex I didn't give that to you to make you watch someone else walk away with me."
Alex breathed a deep sigh of relief.
"Can we have our date now please?" She smiled shyly, (Y/n) laughed.
"I would be delighted to go on a date with you Alex."
