"Another road trip." ( Y/n) turned and smiled at Alex reaching her hand across to place it on her thigh, Alex returned her cheery smile, she was nervous about this weekend but it had to happen sometime the sooner they did it the sooner it was out of the way like ripping a band-aid off really quickly.
"It seems so long ago since our last one."
(Y/n) sighed sadly. "Yes."
"I swear if you two are gonna start making out again you can leave me at the side of the road and I will fly the rest of the way to Eliza's." Kara's head suddenly popped up between the two car seats from her seat in the back, Alex and (Y/n) shared a chuckle.
"Maybe we will pull over, find a nice little motel what do you think (Y/n)?" Alex winked at her since Kara had found them in an intimate situation they'd both ganged up on her and wound her up, turns out it was really easy to fluster Kara.
" Sounds like a good idea to me I am feeling kinda.. frisky. " The chef let the last word linger on her tongue trying so hard not to fall over in hysterics.
"You two need neutering," Kara replied her face a look of utter disgust.
" Hey, that's not nice Kara we're messing with you dorkazoid. "
"Oh yeah, I knew that."
" What is wrong any way you seem kinda uptight and prudish around sex it's just a natural expression of emotion. " (Y/n) shrugged, well not always but she wasn't going into that right now.
Alex shook her head skeptically.
Kara pouted at them suddenly feeling self-conscious. "Oh, really Alex that is what you are calling what you did with Sara Lance three or four times? " She silently patted herself on the back when she saw the two women exchange glances (Y/n)'s more of anger mixed with confusion and Alex one of absolute dread.
"What!" ( Y/n) yelled her hand leaving the other woman's thigh as she stared dagger at her.
"It's not what your thinking." Alex gulped. " It was another earth and a different Sara and long before you, I swear it. " When (Y/n)'s expression didn't change Alex pleaded with her sister. "Kara please tell her."
" Yes, we had a wedding some Nazis issues Alex had a one night stand with an assassin and I was nearly dissected by a doppelganger with a mega bad attitude. "
The chef frowned.
"Say something," Alex said softly.
" I really wish I didn't know this, and Alex you think you bore me, Jeez lady you are da bomb! but let's not talk about Sara Lances anymore I don't want to hate our Sara. "
"Okay."
" Wait a minute are you saying there are other Alex's? "
"Yep." Kara sighed watching the scenery pass them by.
(Y/n) began to trail off how had no one ever thought to go to all these Earths and claim every Alex Danvers and bring them to her, that would be the only kind of group sex she would be interested in Alex, Alex, Alex, and Alex. "Hmm that is such a good idea." She smiled dreamily.
" Are you okay? "
"What, oh yeah sure." Damn probably should keep that to myself.
Alex breathed a huge sigh of relief glaring a Kara through the mirror, making her a silent promise to get her back for landing her face first in the crap.
"Why are you so uptight about sex though Kara?" ( Y/n) asked again, puzzled when her cousin's face glowed red.
"I err...I never met anyone I felt comfortable enough to do that?" She said softly waiting for the judging to arrive.
" You mean you and Mon-el never... " Alex trailed off.
"Wait there is someone out there called Mon-el." ( Y/n) laughed. "This is too brilliant."
" No, we weren't together long enough. "
"You know you shouldn't be ashamed of that Kara, and you shouldn't be prudish either sex is fun when you are with the right person way more fun than when it's just something physical." ( Y/n) said thinking of her own past experiences with a cringe.
"Can we please stop talking about sex." Kara pouted.
" You know I'm sure Lena would be your instructor. " (Y/n) teased.
"Why would Lena want to teach Kara anything?" Alex shrugged turning her head to face her girlfriend who rolled her eyes dramatically.
" You really need to open your eyes, Alex, they practically eat each other. "
"I really don't need to hear this." Alex protested.
" Me neither. " Kara joined.
"Oh God Alex has joined the repressed gang you two should be the Prudish sisters, not the Danvers sisters."
"Do you think Eliza will know we're cousins?" Kara asked Alex trying to change the subject.
Alex's face turned red.
"Alex." ( Y/n) warned.
"She guessed it already okay she said you kinda looked alike."
" Alex what the hell even my Dad doesn't know, please don't tell me you told her I was Superwoman. "
"Err sorta."
" Oh Alex. " Kara groaned leaning backward as (Y/n) let the steam flow from her ears.
"Seriously Alex you are terrible at this stuff, my father doesn't know and you're telling a woman I met once for like an hour."
" A woman who is my mother and wouldn't tell anyone. "
"I'm gonna put a cap on what you can reveal and what you can't Alex jeez."
Kara leaned forward hoping to change the subject again. "So what food do you think she has made?"
" I'm not wrestling you for another Chicken Kara. " (Y/n) sighed.
"Yeah, how much humiliation can you take if you keep losing." Kara smiled smugly she'd never lost a single food fight to her cousin, she was hailing herself the reigning champion.
Alex shook her head, "I have to go places and tell people your my girlfriend and you are my sister this is getting harder to admit to."

Eliza had been in the window when they arrived, she'd been back and forth for a while at any given sound to see if it was them, she hadn't been surprised (Y/n) had agreed to come she'd seen the way she looked at her daughter she was pretty certain she would do anything if Alex asked her to.
She smiled watching as she got out of the car and opened the door for Kara, at least she was well mannered.
Alex sighed when she looked towards the house and saw her mother standing in the window. I really hope no one saw her.
Kara turned to her with a smirk, Alex sighed she'd seen worse of all that meant (Y/n) had to have seen too.
"Hey, there you are I thought you'd be here sooner," Eliza called from the front porch.
" Kara and (Y/n) ganged up on me so we had to stop for something to eat. " Alex sighed as her mother pulled her into a tight hug.
"We were starving." Kara protested waiting for her hug.
Everyone turned to (Y/n) who stood on the bottom step looking up an awkward look on her face hoping beyond all hope she wasn't expected to give a hug too, she did hugs but Eliza was still basically a stranger.
"(Y/n) so happy you could come I pulled out more pictures of Alex and old films." Eliza smiled at the groaned her daughter gave.
" She doesn't want to see them, Mom. "
"Well, I do." Kara proclaimed loudly enjoying getting her own back on her sister.
Alex felt a little better when she saw a small smile tug at the corners of her girlfriend's mouth. "I would actually like to see more." Instead of a hug, she stretched her hand out to shake her hand being mindful to be very careful.
" Thank you for inviting me, Mrs. Danvers. "
"I was only too happy to, and please call me Eliza you can tell me everything Kara and Alex get up to, the bits they won't tell me about." She winked.
" Err I'm pretty sure (Y/n) is on my side Mom she isn't going to rat me out to my mother. "
"I do happen to know Kara has a real problem with not knocking." ( Y/n) smirked as both Alex and Kara stared at her, their eyes equally as wide and round with shocked terror.
"Oh really."
" Err let me show you to my room (Y/n). " Alex pushed her forward through the door and safely past her mother so she couldn't reveal any more, (Y/n) giggling all the way.
"What were you doing?" ( Y/n) laughed as Alex closed the bedroom door shut behind her.
"Are you crazy?" Alex asked.
" I was only joking, so this was your bedroom huh.? " She turned to look around.
"Yes."
" I grew up in Metropolis the big smoking city no windows with views like this, although one time my Dad and Cat took us to this place in the Caribbean and the view was amazing, though I did keep expecting a tidal wave to hit that wasn't so relaxing. "
"Well, I did have Kara snoring next door so not entirely the best."
A loud thump of a shoe hit the wall. "I do not snore!"
They both laughed, Alex swiftly moving closer to pull her into her arms and hold her. "It's going to be okay you know." She placed a reassuring kiss on her forehead.
"I know."
" My mom really isn't that bad you could grow to like her. "
She sighed. "Moms make me nervous Alex, I have this strange kind of phobia or something."
"I don't think so, I think you loved your mother and she hurt you so badly it left scars, now you think all mothers should be distrusted."
" Maybe, but I'll never leave mine the way she left me, then came back to destroy everything. " Her voice was sorrowful as she held Alex tighter, she realized that she was the everything (Y/n) was talking about.
"I know, you'd just scar them with having to fight Kara for their food."
"Oh God that is going to happen isn't it, I may as well serve it in a trough." She laughed only half joking.

The clatter of knives and forks on plates filled a silent dining table as the sun had begun to cool down in the evening sky a fresh breeze picking up the curtains in the window that tickled the backs of (Y/n)'s chair and back.
"So Alex tells me you are a very talented chef." Eliza smiled she had worried about her own cooking wondering what the woman would say about her offerings when she was so experienced at such a young age, Alex had boasted about her talents a lot.
"Well, I am a chef." She smiled softly.
"Oh now come on Alex talks about you all the time she says there is literally nothing you cannot make and even the simplest thing tastes amazing, those were your exact words weren't they Alex?"
Alex blushed slightly. "Well, I didn't use those words."
Kara laughed evilly. "No, it was probably more incoherent and way more drooling."
"No Kara you are mistaken that is you around Lena Luthor!" Alex shot back aggravated by her sister's words, (Y/n) chuckled softly.
I knew she noticed them.
Kara glared at Alex her face turning red as she stood up from her chair slightly to face off against her sister. "Shut up Alex or do you want me to tell Eliza about you being way too jealous of Sara Lance!"
"What." The older woman asked looking at her two daughters then back at (Y/n) who shrunk back in her chair she was innocent in all this she wasn't to blame.
"Kara!" Alex warned.
"Oh yeah, she put that kiddy stuff itching powder down her shirt when she wasn't looking!" Kara said all too smugly dragging the last few words out as her head moved from side to side arrogantly.
"What!" (Y/n) shouted, she'd never heard about this but now she thought about it she did recall that day a few weeks ago when Sara was itching a lot, wait, that stuff actually works?
"Yeah she is a grown woman and she still acted like a big kid!" Kara laughed sitting back down happily in her chair, enjoying the roast Alex was giving her with her eyes.
"Girls please, now does someone care to tell me who this Sara Lance is and why you are jealous of her Alex?" Eliza asked awkwardly, she didn't want to think that the woman her daughter raved about was a cheat, but she also didn't want her to get hurt.
"Fine, I will tell you, for the longest time I hated Sara Lance because she had what I had been a fucking fool to throw away!" Alex said angrily.
"Alex please language."
"No, it's the truth she had (Y/n) and I hated her for it, and then when she was amazing enough to give me a second chance after I didn't deserve it and Mom I didn't I was a massive douche bag."
"She was," Kara confirmed.
"I still hated her because I was scared (Y/n) would wake up and see how she was so much better than I ever was," Alex said sadly lowering her head to her plate cursing Kara for bringing it up at all, she felt a hand cover hers, she looked across to see (Y/n)'s hand hold hers firmly lifting her head to meet her eyes she saw her soft comforting smile and eyes that shined with love an forgiveness.
Eliza watched the two for a time lost in their own little word suddenly she and Kara didn't exist she realised the holding of her hand was far more than a signal that she had forgiven her it was a sign of comfort of love, of everything that was positive and good that flowed from the one to the other, then she smiled because she knew now more than ever that indeed there was something special about (Y/n) (L/n).
She only hoped that it would last this time for her daughter.
