Danvers Sisters & A Sawyer

There was no one in the universe that Kara loved more than Alex—not even Kal—and it broke her heart to see her sister like this. She could see she’d been crying, and her voice was so small when she said she was sorry. Kara wasn’t even sure a human could’ve heard the words.

She settled at the middle of the sofa, not seeing any reason whatsoever not to be close to Alex. Her nose wrinkled from the smell of the booze in the glass, but if anyone had a good reason to get a little drunk, it was her sister. “It’s OK. There’s no way to prepare for something like this—there isn’t.”

But she was hurt. She knew Jeremiah was Alex’s father, but she’d chosen her sister over blood when Astra was on the warpath. She felt awful that she’d not been number one on the list, but she understood. And she wasn’t about to give Alex grief about her decision. She was beating herself up enough for them both—hell for the entire DEO. “I just wanted to tell you that I love you. You’re my family.”

Alex finally lets herself glance at her sister. To look at that face, and she still felt horrible for the expression that had crossed it earlier that day. It was hard to believe that it had only been a day. She swallowed and nodded.

A hand reached out on its own accord. Before Alex could think if it was the best thing to do or not. Alex needed to touch her sister. She needed to confirm to her tired and slightly tipsy brain that Kara was here. That she was not mad at her.
