Chapter Summary: prompt by WritersBlock039: Curtis and Kate talk about Kate's new crush, Kara. Kate finds out she's in Central City. Kate offers her help to take Lex down, as Kara tells her about this problem

.

She sat on the ground of her cave, staring at her phone and feeling anxious once again. It was the third time that week, she waited... and waited.

This is ridiculous, you're not a teenage girl, she thought.

But that's how she felt every time she was around a certain blonde.

Or got a text from her

Or a call

Or an invitation to team up

Or when she interviewed her

Or any time she saw her flying around.

Curtis observed her from across the room while waiting for the computer load some important information he found just a few minutes ago. He thought Kate would be excited about it, but her mind seemed far away.

- Are you here with me yet? Or away thinking about you know who?

- Stop. Is not like that at all!

- Yes, it is!

Kate looked annoyed at Curtis and suddenly, felt her heart jump when her phone made a beep.

- Did she finally answer you?

- Shut up!

Curtis smiled, knowing that entire act was just that: an act. Kate became really shut when it came to talk about her love life or even her crush on someone. It was like trying to go through stone, but he enjoyed teasing her, it was fun.

- But did she or not? I'm curious. – He said as he stared at Kate.

- Yes, she did it. Are you happy?

- Own, I knew that's why you almost jumped from the floor...

- It's nothing. Go back doing... whatever you were doing. I'll be back soon.

Kate suited up and walked away, leaving Curtis with a knowing smile on his face.

She got to Wayne enterprises really fast and as soon as she went up to the balcony, she saw her and her heart jumped from her chest.

There she was, in all her glory, with the wind messing up her beautiful blonde her, dressing that suit she loved so much, she missed the skirt but that wasn't important at all.

- Hey, Batwoman!

- Supergirl. What can I do for you today?

That was lame Kate, she thought and smiled awkwardly. Ok, Curtis was right; she behaved really weird and didn't recognize herself at all when she was near Kara.

- Lex Luthor came to Gotham a few days ago. We have a reason to believe he's working with someone from Leviathan. This person lives here...

- Oh, that jerk!

- Yes, that jerk. – She smiled and Kate felt her heart would melt at any second - I didn't want Brainy to hack your system, so I was wondering if you could help us.

- Sure, whatever you need.

Lame again Kate, she thought. She felt like going nuts at this point, it was like trying to bring some sense to herself but she couldn't.

- We just need the security footage of Gotham's national bank from 3 days ago.

- Curtis can hack into their system and get it for you.

- I also came here to see how you were doing... Since Crisis we got so many things happening at the same time, I feel like I barely talk to my friends anymore

- I'm fine... At least as fine as you can be when the doppelganger of your sister dies and the sister you didn't save swears to make you pay...

- What happened?

- When all Earths merged, her doppelganger showed up on my door, and since they can't both exist...

- You had to pick one...

- Yes. And the one I had to let die actually survived because the other was killed... She's pissed, I feel guilty... It's all a mess.

- You have nothing to feel guilty about – Kara took a few steps towards Kate, reaching for her shoulder to comfort her. – You did nothing wrong and were in an impossible situation.

Kara always seemed to find the perfect answer to make her feel better, she always tried to see the best in people and that's why she liked her so much. It was rare to find people like her, pure of heart with no bad bones in her body.

- Someone's screaming for help... Team up? – Kara smiled and Kate nodded, feeling excited already.

- Let's do this!

- I think we'll go faster if we fly there... Have you done this before?

- No... I never...

- Just hold on tight.

Kate felt even more nervous as she held Kara's wait while she held her and they flew away together. She had never flown outside a plane in her life before.

Tricks as a super hero doesn't count, she thought.

And it was awesome.

It was also hard to focus in her situation.

A few hours later, Kate was back in her cave and found Curtis sitting there, staring at her with a knowing smile.

- It looks like someone just won the lottery!

- I just had a good night, that's all...

- Tell me!

- Nope!

- C'mon!

- Ok... First, did you manage to hack the bank?

- I was working on it when you got here... Now, tell me.

Kate took a deep breath and walked from one side to the other.

- She heard someone needing help and wanted to team up. We also talked about Beth and...

- And...?

- We flew... together... It was faster than going with my bike

- This is so romantic! – Curtis laughed

- No, it's not. She doesn't see me like that... I don't even know if...

- What? If she likes girls? That's right, you don't know. And with that, you're finally admitting you like her?

Kate looked annoyed at Curtis. She knew he would never let this go.

- Maybe... But that doesn't mean anything...

- You don't know. You can even let it go and stay the rest of your life wondering and crushing on her or you can take a risk, at least to know more... It's up to you.

- Is not that easy. If I try to know and I end up making a fool of myself, things can get really weird. I like her too much to risk losing her friendship...

- Kate...

- No, enough. I won't talk about it anymore... Now can you please find that footage?

Curtis looked serious at Kate and nodded, going back to the computer. Kate turned around and took a deep breath.

- I have a headache; I'll take something for it... See you later!

- Ok, see you...

Great, now I can't stop thinking about it, she thought while she sat on her bed, staring at the ceiling. She avoided talking about it with Curtis because she knew she would be a mess later. She hated the situation, but knew Curtis was right; she just didn't want to do anything now.

She couldn't.

She would never know... At least for now
