Wonderful I could cry and die

The first time they met it was right after Kal had fought Lex. The encounter was rushed, since Diana was helping Clark deal with the aftermath of the fight with Lex. Kara had been a mumbling mess like she always is around people she admires…or people she has a crush on…

The second time had been just as fleeting; a quick visit to the DEO to talk to J'onn, and luckily, Kara had been there to say hello.

“I don’t know who’s worse, you with Wonder Woman, or Winn with Superman…” Alex quipped, making Kara blush and fidget with her cape as they watched Diana and J'onn from afar.

“But she called me sister, Alex!!! Like I’m an Amazon too!!” Kara protested meekly.

“She calls every woman her sister, Kara.” Alex snorted.

“Supergirl, Agent Danvers.” Diana greeted them with a polite nod. “I’ve watched you fighting, Kara, you’ve improved greatly.” The compliment is genuine, making Kara beam at Diana. “But a true warrior never stops training. If you wish to better yourself, call me, I’ll be happy to train a fellow sister.“

Kara was already beside herself, but oh Rao, Diana was leaning closer to whisper, "I promise you, you’ll be much better than Kal.” And she winked!!! Winked, giving Kara the most charming smile she has ever seen!

Spluttering, and laughing awkwardly, Kara stuttered a reply, making Alex to roll her eyes, while Wonder Woman chuckled softly.

Their first sparring session left Kara missing fighting with Non; she had no idea how strong Diana actually is, and she had made the mistake of telling the Amazon to not hold back. Needless to say, Kara had to spend a few hours at the DEO’s yellow-light bed.

They sparred every couple of months, each time Kara proving to be more of a challenge to Diana, showing how fast of a learner she is.

“I bet this time I can beat you.” Kara said confidently, placing her hands on her hips, in her typical superhero pose.

“And what makes you think that, Kara?” Diana asked, circling her trainee to keep her on her toes.

Both women had become more comfortable around each other, and Diana made sure Kara knows how fond she is of her.

“Because I came very close to doing so last time we practiced, and since then, I’ve fought a bunch of bad guys. And!! And!!” She added enthusiastically, “Alex hasn’t been able to take me down in more than two months!”

Diana chuckled softly, adoring the child-like wonder Kara always has about her. “All right,” Diana said, taking her fighting stance, “What is your wager?”

Kara was about to get ready to fight, when Diana’s question surprised her. “Wait, I didn’t mean it that way-” she tried to explain, only to be interrupted by Diana raising her hand.

“If you can take me down, you’ll deserve a reward.” Diana grinned, her eyes shining with the anticipation of a good fight.

“Okay…” Kara considered her options for a second, before the corner of her lips curled into a beaming smile. “If I win, you have to lend me your boots.”

Diana frowned slightly at the peculiar request, but she didn’t really question it. “And if I win, you’ll have to train with Antiope and me next time, yes?”

Kara nodded enthusiastically. “Deal!”

The sparring session didn’t last for more than a few minutes, but it certainly felt like hours to both women. Diana had had the upper hand a few times, but Kara managed to dodge and deflect every single one of her attacks, until Kara found the perfect opening to disarm Diana, and trap her in an arm-lock.

The move surprised Diana, but it also made her proud. “All right, all right.” she said, tapping Kara three times.

“Did I win?” Kara all but squealed as she let go of Diana’s arm.

“Yes.” Diana conceded with a graceful smile. “You won.”

Kara didn’t contain herself then, she squealed loudly, pulling Diana into a tight hug.

A few hours later, Kara was entering the bar wearing Diana’s boots.

“Are those-” Alex started to ask in shock.

KARA’S WEARING HER BOOTS AND DOING THE POSE!!!!!!!
