"How about we just do something that doesn't involve that," Alex gestures to a smirking Lucy.
"Never have I ever sounds fun," Lucy says, her grin growing.
Alex sighs and quickly chugs her drunk when she sees her friends and family seemingly agree with her. She gets up and grabs another drink for her and Maggie, silently setting it in front of her wife. Maggie thanks her, smiling softly at Alex as she sits back down next to her. She wraps her arm around Alex and rests her head against her shoulder, sipping the last of her older drink and setting it aside for someone to bring up to the bar later.
The others quickly agree to a game of Never Have I Ever, and when everyone looks to Maggie and Alex for their say, Maggie shrugs while Alex grumbles out an affirmation.
"Who's going to start?" Winn asks, his eyes bright with excitement as he looks around the table.
"It was your idea, why don't you start?" Alex suggests.
Winn blinks. "Oh, um. Yeah, yeah I can do that? Let me just think of one..." He takes a moment to think, his brows furrowed as he gazes down into his drink like it'll give him a good idea. "Uh. Never have I ever read while upside down."
The only person that drinks is Kara and Lena, and Kara pouts at Winn. "You know I like to float and read!"
"Hey, it wasn't just you that drank!" Winn protests.
It's as though the information hadn't computed in Kara's mind yet and she turns to Lena. "You read upside down too?"
"Occasionally. I used to climb trees a lot as a kid. Sometimes I would sit in a tree to get away from Lillian and hang upside down to read." Lena explains.
"You don't read upside down, nerd?" Maggie teases, gently nudging her wife.
Alex smiles and presses a kiss to Maggie's head. "No, I read right-side up like a normal person."
"Lyra?" Winn asks. "Want to go next?"
"Sure. I think you explained it well enough to me the other day that I understand it," Lyra says. "Never have I ever blown bubbles in a drink in the past two months."
Winn and Kara both groan and drink.
"You're adorable, darling." Lena reassures Kara after she finishes chuckling, giving her a quick peck.
"Do we just want to continue in a circle this way?" Maggie asks. The others nod in agreement and she looks to Kara. "Little Danvers, you're up!"
"Um. Never have I ever snuck up on somebody to scare them."
Maggie, Lena, Alex, and Lucy all drink while Lucy good-naturedly grumbles about lame questions.
Kara looks at Lena in surprise and she explains with a shrug. "I had a brother." She clears her throat and then speaks again. "Never have I ever eaten twelve tubs of ice cream in one night."
"Lee!" Kara complains before taking a sip. "I was having a bad day."
"I know darling, but that's a truly incredible amount." Lena says.
Alex waits for Lena to finish talking before she speaks. "Never have I ever spoiled the ending of a book to someone else."
"I feel like a lot of these are directed at me." Kara murmurs as she takes another drink, as does Lena and Maggie.
"Never have I ever stuttered because of seeing an attractive person," Maggie says.
She laughs delightedly when Kara, Alex, and Winn immediately drink, followed by Lena after a moment of thought.
"You should drink too, Maggie. Remember the first time you saw me without clothes?" Alex asks, feeling the alcohol numb the embarrassment she would normally feel for saying that in front of her friends and family.
Maggie shrugs. "That's fair." She leans in and presses a kiss to Alex's nose, which automatically scrunches up as she smiles. "You are beautiful."
Alex's smile softens and it takes Lucy loudly clearing her throat to rip her gaze away from Maggie's.
"Never have I ever given you up, let you down, and deserted you." Lucy says with a completely straight face, which breaks only when she sees everyone's expressions. They range from "really?" to begrudgingly impressed to Lyra, who's very confused. "It's a popular song that has become a running joke in this Kingdom."
"You just... Verbally Rick Rolled us." Maggie says. "I've only had bands in bars or in concerts do that. I can't tell whether I should face palm or high five you."
Lucy holds out her hand and after a moment of hesitation, Maggie leans forward and high fives her.
"I don't know how to top that. Do you guys want me to or do we agree that we should just drink and talk?" James asks.
"Drinking and talking works with me." Alex shrugs, taking a sip of her drink.
After a moment of consideration, most everyone agrees and the conversation turns to Winn attempting to explain his latest project to everyone. He quickly involves Alex and Lena, who understand it first, followed by Kara and Maggie.
The five of them quickly start a debate about whether it will work, and how it will, as well as the possible consequences. After a bit, this conversation peters out as well and people break into their own small side conversations, which essentially involves the couples talking with each other.
Maggie and Alex are the first to excuse themselves, eager to spend some time with just them. They say a good goodbye to their friends and settle their tab before walking out into the cool night air.
Maggie grins happily at her wife as they pause outside to adjust to the difference from being inside a warm, loud bar. Alex melts at the sight of her dimples and she wordlessly tugs on the hand she's holding. Maggie allows herself to be pulled and leans up so that their lips will connect. Alex can feel Maggie's smile against her lips, but it quickly fades as the kiss deepens.
Next chapter will be a Sanvers scene :) I've seen some of you mentioning that you feel like they've kinda been sidelined, and I apologize for that! I haven't meant to! And it took me a good half hour at least to find good Never Have I Ever questions for this lol. But I do hope you guys enjoyed the fantasy Rick Rolling as much as I did! Anywho! And I was actually going to write yesterday, but then they gave my slow butt twelve rooms to clean so I was working for 13 hours on my feet,,,, I got out at 11:11 pm... Thank you all for reading and for your amazing comments! Stay awesome!
