Chapitre 8: Chapter 8: 'It hurts, but it'll be ok'
"Alex!" Alex rushes over to the sagging body Kara holds.
"Someone bring a gurney please." She gives the order to whoever happens to walk past.
"What happened Kara?"The gurney comes in swiftly, Alex gently supports Len's head and they set her onto it.
"It was Morgan Edge but not, he has robotic arms and stuff." The super hasn't taken her eyes off of Lena.
"He is now stuck in a block of ice unconscious in Lena's office." J'onn makes it into the area.
"Is she ok?"
"She will be, gotta get her up into X-ray and she might need a couple of stitches."
"You can send agents to her office, it was Morgan Edge," Alex says solemnly. He gives them a nod and stalks off to oversee Morgan's transportation into one of their cells. Metahumans of his caliber are partly the DEO's jurisdiction.
....🐝🐝🐝🐝....
Lena has gotten a room in the small medical wing to the southwest side of the DEO building, Lena helped equip it, it's funny how everything comes full circle.
A doctor, Kara is vaguely familiar with, comes in with Lena's charts. The CEO is awake and more alert now, the pain meds she helped create; takes away the pain, but don't come with the added drowsiness and addictive qualities.
"Ok, i'm going to list what she has and the precautions that should be taken while she heals." She steps a bit closer, so she doesn't have to raise her voice.
"You have a broken rib on your left side, the one just above it is fractured in two places, you will have a nasty bruise there for a while. A mild concussion but there seems to be no bruising of the brain, which is always good. Your cheek is fractured, so an ice pack will have a home there for a while. You will have substantial bruising where the blows were made, so ice overall will be your best friend. She has gotten a total of twenty-two stitches. Six on her cheek, four on each hand where glass was picked, five on her rib area, and three just above her right brow, we used super glue to patch up your lip." The doctor flips through the sheets of her chart, Kara and Lena still stay silent, waiting for her to finish.
"You will most likely be out of commission for a month, give or take a couple days. Three weeks at the least." She turns towards Kara now.
"She may start walking around the house with minimal help after two weeks. Can probably be left alone for long periods of time at three. From there, do things at your own discretion."
The DEO doctors ask if there were any questions, and then leave them to each other.
Alex knocks a little while after the doctor is finished. "How is she?" She asks quietly, trying not to disturb the peace.
"She, is awake." Lena all but groans. Her voice is hoarse, she was used to the pain breathing has caused, now that she is painless, it's hard to not anticipate the sharp stabbing her ribs could give.
"You missy," she points directly towards the CEO, "are on bed rest, which means no work. Sam has everything covered."
Lena lets out a humorless snort. "I know she can handle it, but I can't though."
Alex turns to Kara.
"You can take her home tonight Kara, no flying though, I can have someone drive you."
"Yes please, see you later?"
"Would you still like for us to come over tomorrow?"
Kara goes to speak but Lena buts in. "Of course still come, I need entertainment. If I'm stuck with this one all day, she will just kill me with puppy videos."
"Hey!"
Alex smiles at the bickering couple, she's never seen Kara so happy, and Lena so free. Alex nods in answer and makes her way back to her office, leaving the two to rest.
Kara turns towards Lena, leaning in a bit, but careful to not exacerbate her injuries. "Get some rest, love. You don't need to put up the tough act in front of me. I know you inside and out."
Lena deflates a bit, giving Kara a small tentative nod. The super noticed a little glint in her girlfriend's eyes, innocence peaks through? She watches as the glint turns into shine, Lena's tears start to spill down her flushed cheeks. Lena bites her lips, trying to stifle her inevitable sobs.
Kara goes in to hug her gently, wary of injuries, but with so much love and admiration. Lena all but climbs onto her, she clings tight to her shirt.
Kara floats gently to the free space on the bed. The raveness curls into her as much as she can without aggravating the broken and fractured ribs.
Kara sings an old Kryptonian lullaby. She remembers about half of the lyrics, the rest she makes up as she goes. Each time she sings it, it's always different, somehow always better than the last time though. Lena drifts off into a peaceful sleep.
Kara shifts a bit, unburying Lena's face from her chest so her girlfriend can breathe some fresh oxygen.
She looks down towards her again, The blondes brow crease in confusion.
Lena has her ring and middle finger in her mouth, up to the second knuckle, sucking on them with a bit of force rhythmically.
Well, this has never happened before, must be the stress.
Her mind tries to conjure up explanations for her girlfriend's behavior. Kara then thinks back to other stressful moments.
I do remember her nibbling on the tips of her thumb and pinky a couple of times, sometimes they would make it into her mouth. But I just thought that was a nervous-induced tic. She always seemed so cuddly those times, more than usual.
Kara thinks back more, she grows a bit more confused.
Other times when she has done it, she was fine, happy even. She sometimes plays with her ears and loves to play with my fingers.
Kara has noticed after sex, when they are both comfy, satiated, and tired, Lena sometimes has her finger near her mouth, or even in. She never did it in a sexual manner. Her eyes were always heavy those times, she looked so at peace, so free. Kara always thought it was due to the exhaustion and contentedness a couple of continuous orgasms can have on a human body.
Kara's thinking has her crinkle appear with force.
She looks down at Lena again, she can't help but smile. She has so much adoration for this woman. She is sleeping with no pain evident, thank Rao, curled up to her side snoring softly. The super strokes her cheeks, still smiling down at the cutest thing on display in front of her. The blonde's heart swells.
Lena's finger still bobs in and out slightly, her nose twitches and scrunches. She repositions her hand for a better angle and then settles back down, suckling away.
Peace.
Kara bends over and kisses her girl's forehead. Lena moves closer to the warmth radiating off of her space heater girlfriend. She preens and at the contact, she sucks harder, pushing her slick fingers further into her mouth. Her free hand subconsciously finds the end of Kara's shirt, she fists it tights, she breathes in the scent of soft strawberry body wash, and then lets out a satisfied sigh.
Kara's heart grows even more. She feels protection for this unmade, unfiltered, vulnerable Lena.
The super whispers while stroking the brunette's hair softly, "I never knew my love for you can grow any bigger than it has, but you just seem to love to prove me wrong."
Kara settles into bed, still stroking her hair, she waits for the sun to set and the moon to appear so she can get her love home. She also thinks about the plenty of research she has to do on what any of this is, or if it means anything, she does have a lot of time on her hands now.
Kara has only ever seen the two sides of Lena, the badass CEO of a multi-billion dollar company, and the cozy socks in bed Lena whose bun is always messy.
Now, this is number three, a child-like Lena. Kara wants to know more, wants to explore this new thing, because her heart is pulling and growing at the sight of this child-like version of her girlfriend. Sucking away at her fingers and grasped the hem of Kara's blouse. She wants to get to know this new vulnerable and innocent person. This little sight before her eyes, all she can think of is, precious.
