"I definitely like this one," Alex said her head bent over the magazine laid out on the kitchen counter, as (Y/n) filled the raw potstickers with their fillings, she'd decided to give Kara a gift, she'd felt like cooking and she knew she would more than appreciate them.
"Which one is it?"
Taking to heart (Y/n)'s words of a vacation away just the two of them Alex had thrown herself into researching locations, though a breakaway on a desert was not on the cards, she'd have to convince (Y/n) about the merits of that at another time, so she'd hit the internet and launched into some magazines to find the perfect location.
"The one in the middle of a wood, a lake nearby and no one around for a hell of a long way." That had been the reason she'd chosen it, there would be no one around to interrupt them, they could to blissfully and utterly alone.
"Like last time, I was thinking of a beach house overlooking the ocean, but just up a little on the cliff."
Alex raised an eyebrow. "I'm not too keen on waking up in the morning, the house having fallen off the cliff, thank you very much erosion."
(Y/n) turned her attention from her task, moving to the counter that Alex sat at, a small ball of fluff curled up asleep at her feet. "I have ulterior motives thank you very much."
" What ulterior motives? " Alex questioned waving the pictures under her nose hoping she would change her mind.
(Y/n) leaned on the counter, resting all her weight there a roguish smile across her mouth. "Well I was thinking to myself, I've never ever seen Alex in a bikini in the water, then my mind started coming up with a lot of fantasies, that included you wet running out of the water in slow motion, hair pulled back from your face because its wet, your wet all over actually, and then you come closer and there are small beads of water dripping from your face into the sizzling hot sand and I short circuit because I've never seen anything so hot, you are so hot your actually melting." The chef took a deep breath needing to give herself some time. "Then as you stand over me, blocking out the sun that makes your hair shine even redder, I pull you closer and reenact the scene in From Here To Eternity, there was a reason I made you watch it with me you know." She winked.
" Wow, okay let's do that, let's go to the beach! "
With a large excited smile on her face, (Y/n) lifted herself up onto the counter and placed a very quick kiss to the other woman's lips, before jumping back down and continuing her task of making Potstickers. "We'll have such a fun time you'll see, besides I was thinking maybe we could go back to that lovely cabin again for our one year anniversary, it was such a wonderful time together, it should be saved for something equally as special."
" I love that idea. " Alex smiled, (Y/n)'s storytelling had made it sound very alluring. "Why are you making this again?"
" Because I am happy and Kara is a sweetie. "
"You know she's going to storm in here like Taz the Tasmanian Devil right?"
" Yeah, but I've nailed everything down, don't worry, we'll still have an apartment afterward. "
"You also know if you keep feeding her she will never leave," Alex said whimsically.
" Oh she will leave, how else would she get any Lena time? "
Alex shook her head. "it's still so weird, Kara and Lena Luthor."
" Hey, Lena is the best! she also loves Kara so quit your bellyaching. " (Y/n) warned playfully.
"I'm not bellyaching, it just seemed to take an eternity to get them there that is all."
" Well, yeah there is that. "
Alex sighed, exhausted just by thinking about it. "And your crazy ass plan that nearly killed me, some revelations I did not know about, you really should have warned me about that, I wanted to punch someone."
" Yes well I told you, no one cared enough before you, and I never cared enough, I'd never ever suggest a threesome now, especially now I have my powers, I'd easily kill someone in a jealous rage. "
Alex smiled. "Why is that the most romantic thing you've ever said to me?"
" Because you have a weird dark sense of humor. "
Skipping over the still sleeping Bear Alex stood behind (Y/n) moving her arms around her and taking in the sweet scent of her hair before settling to place soft kisses along her neck. "Maybe I should show you, my dark sense of humor."
Closing her eyes against the chill that passed through her at Alex's nearness (Y/n) found words hard to escape her. "You definitely should, do it now."
Twirling them around swiftly Alex lifted (Y/n) onto the counter she'd just departed, being pulled immediately into her she accepted gladly the lips that landed on her own, (Y/n) holding her head between her hands unwilling to let her go as Alex fitted between her thighs.
The agent's hands moving to caress her right breast, covered by her shirt, yet the other woman still let out a deep low moan.
The door swung open suddenly, Kara standing in the doorway her eyes going straight to the half made potstickers on the side, frustration boiled inside her. "Alex put her down she hasn't finished!"
Alex and (Y/n) stopped suddenly, still glued together their eyes now turned to Kara, disbelief written across each of their faces.
"Kara what the hell!" Alex sighed moving back away from ( Y/n)'s warm all too comfortable arms.
(Y/n) let out a disappointed grumble as she jumped to the floor and continued her task, beginning to rethink her whole decision because clearly, Kara was no longer a sweetie.

(Y/n) watched her frowning as for the one hundredth time Kara had lifted her head up from the massive pile of potstickers and opened her mouth to speak before hiding back behind the safety of the dumplings.
Alex had retreated to the shower leaving them alone, Bear sat on the couch a squeak every now and then sounding out letting them know he was still playing with his new toy, every day Alex came back with something new for him, (Y/n) was afraid there would be so many toys there would be no room for them, but the sight of his little eyes lighting up upon seeing a new delight was just too priceless.
She tried to discount the oddness and instead focus on sneaking a few to eat herself, it was working until a few moments later Kara looked up again.
"Okay, what is it?"
Kara blushed a deep shade of red. "Nothing."
" Yes, something is up, tell me. "
Kara sighed, lifting two bashful blue eyes to meet her cousins, then nervously they darted around. "I..I wanted to say that you are experienced."
(Y/n) frowned. "With food?"
" Err no...I mean you are experienced in...you know..the thing. " Kara rubbed the back of her neck furiously.
"What thing?" ( Y/n) was having trouble trying to understand just what she was trying to say.
Kara's eyes shifted to the bathroom door then back to the chef, moving closer she whispered, or more mouthed. "Sex."
" Ahhh, wow okay that is probably the nice way to say, so you're a bit of a slut, Kara I've done some stuff but it's probably not what you are imagining and it was always with protection. "
"I need your advice. ...about S.E.X " She spelled out the word, feeling foolish to be unable to say the simple word out loud again.
"Why?"
"It's cause sometimes.....it's like....well I'm not really...."
Suddenly (Y/n) understood, "I see, you feel.."
"Unexperienced yes." Kara blushed to add quickly, her eyes darting to the door again, hoping Alex wouldn't decide to jump out or that she wasn't listening at the other side. "You won't tell Alex I asked did you, I kinda feel stupid enough asking you."
"Kara of course not, you shouldn't feel stupid, I'm not going to laugh at you and I know Lena isn't going to." (Y/n) leaned in closer as though they were plotting together, "If you want to know my secret I just use my imagination, think of everything your wildest imagination has ever wanted to do and just do it, so if you want to put your finger there, do it, you wanna add a tongue do it, sometimes sex is like an exploration that you take together, it's okay to ask if they like something or ask what they want, you are discovering new things together, it's fun."
"Use my imagination?"
The chef nodded her head, picking some potstickers and hiding them so she would get a stash when Kara the food destroyer was gone, "Yep, for example, one night I was awake, I couldn't sleep and suddenly Alex starts talking in her sleep, about a massage and .."
"(Y/n) I asked for advice not to be traumatized." Kara protested.
"Oh yeah, sorry anyway so I took her dream and turned it into reality, you see it's just activities, have you ever been sat next to Lena, maybe she's eating something and suddenly everything gets blocked out all you can see is her fingers holding the err..chocolate, then your eyes are drawn from her fingers as they travel to her mouth and you watch as it opens to take in the sweet delight, her tongue slips out to scoop out the caramel inside, and suddenly your mind has all kinds of ideas about that tongue and a very different type of hole."
Kara's eyes widened at her very graphic story. "Err...yeah I guess." Has she been reading my thoughts?
"So take the thoughts and do them."
"You're right." Kara suddenly perked up, digging in even more into the pile of food in front of her.
"Right about what?" Alex emerged from the bathroom, her hair still wet only having been briefly dried with a towel.
"Err...I was telling Kara about the holiday."
"Oh." Alex frowned she recognized the puzzled confused look in both of them, when caught out they always wore the same expression, really had to be an El thing. "I thought it was something weird, you are both acting strangely."
(Y/n) and Kara chuckled. "What us, strange? we both wear capes how much stranger can we get Alex?" (Y/n) laughed avoiding her gaze, Kara keeping her head down just the same.
Alex narrowed her eyes. "Okay, but just to let you both know I know you are lying to me."
"We're eating...I mean Kara is eating and I am watching her, we aren't up to anything Alex." The chef defended herself.
"Yeah," Kara said through a mouthful of food.
"Kara no talking with mouthful please, I don't need to see your food." Alex grimaced.
Kara smiled shyly. "So guys tell me about your holiday."
