《Dr Luthor - Supergirl AU》Jealousy
Advertisement
The bright sunlight burnt through my retinas as I sat up in bed. I put my glasses on, making the sun brighter than just blurry. The woman beside me moved in bed and I looked at the red-head, trying not to disturb her as I got out of the unfamiliar bed.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"I told you last night, I have early hours." I sighed, grabbing my clothes off the floor and turning back to her.
"Can't you stay?"
"That's not how one night stands work, Mya." I put a shirt on and grabbed my heels.
"Please just stay for a little longer?"
"Sorry, I can't." I walked out without saying another word. For a moment, I forgot where I was. Meeting a girl at a bar and then following her back to her apartment while drunk was a regular Saturday night for me but this was different. There was something about last night that made it feel... wrong.
"Kara?" I looked up at Lena. She was wearing a beautiful blue shirt that perfectly brought out her emerald green eyes and complemented her raven coloured hair. "You spaced out, are you okay?"
"Yeah, just thinking about something that happened... last night."
"Girl troubles?" She raised an eyebrow and we both laughed. Then, I went serious.
"Yeah, actually. Well, I mean, kinda..." I just kept nodding. "Mya is nice, but I don't feel like we are supposed to be... you know... together." I tried my best to find the right words, failing and just rambling. I stared out into the city, looking over at the building we work at. "We should head back to work. My break ends soon, what about yours?"
"Half an hour till mine..."

"I hate you!" I joked.
"No, you don't."
Lena POV
I didn't know what this feeling was but I could tell it wasn't controllable. I looked over at Kara, who had her eyebrow furrowed as we crossed the road and entered the front doors of the Danvers Hospital.
"Kara, what's wrong?"
"Nothing..."
"Crinkle!" I cut her off and poked her in the middle of her forehead where her infamous crinkle sat.
"Ugh! Crinkle. I'm going to get botox for that. But I hate needles." We both laughed.
"Seriously though. What's wrong?" We walked into the main section of the hospital, where the worst injuries were.
"I don't know. It's hard to explain this feeling. I guess I'll figure it out soon enough."
"Yeah, you will. Knowing..." I was cut off by a familiar face being dragged in by a gurney. I watched Kara run with them, taking over as was her job. I could barely move as they took my big brother into the operating theatre.
I ran into the room and watched Kara calmly check over him and document all of the injuries. I watched as she started surgery immediately and after an hour of just standing there and watching, she nodded at me, letting me know everything was okay. I walked out and sat in the vacant room across from where Lex was being operated on. I waited for another few hours until Kara walked out with a dark look on her face.
"I'm so sorry, Lena. I am so sorry!" She was crying and for a moment, I didn't realise what was happening. Lex was okay, why was she crying. Then the wave of realisation hit me and I almost threw up.
"How? He was okay when I left!" I yelled, not realising how much my yelling was affecting Kara.

"Lena, you know how these things go. You know that it isn't always good even if it looks okay on the outside." Her voice soothed me, made me finally realise what that feeling was when she mentioned being with Mya. Was I jealous?
"What went wrong?"
"I... I..." She stumbled. I looked up at her, not sure as to what she was implying. Then it hit me. It was her fault.
"Kara..." I warned as I stood up and glared at her. Tears started streaming down her face and she was sobbing to the point where her body was shaking violently. She fell to her knees in tears so I knelt beside her and we hugged for quite a while before Alex ran in.
"We need your help!"

This story sees the light of the day because I challenged myself, that's all. 2. English is the 6th language that I speak.And in RRL, I'm using British English mostly to write my story. 3. Easier said than done. Rather than subjecting me to subjective comments/reviews about the language, point it out and suggest an alternative. One or two would do just fine. It goes a long way. The Pledge - This story shall continue till it ends properly.

The London Phantom: A Superhero Webnovel
London is an old city. It has survived floods, fires, plagues and the man-made smog of industry. It has stood firm against the armies of Vikings, Saxons, Normans and the aerial might of the Luftwaffe. It has borne witness to dynsatic feuds, civil wars, military occupation and the sin of regicide. Through all these disasters the city has survived not through force of arms, though its walls were once the envy of the world, but through adapting to the times. Enemies become dependant on the city, and the wealth of the world that flows through it, and so become new allies. If the rulers change, then the city welcomes them with open arms, and open lines of credit. In this way the city seeks to preserve its ancient rights and position of power. Superheroes are a new phenomenon. The first superpowered man walked out of the Nevada desert in 1950, and the world was forever changed. Across the planet, men and women with exceptional abilities made themselves known. At first, they were little more than another source of fear in the era of Mutually Assured Destruction, but over time attitudes changed and the concept of the Superhero was created in the city of Los Angeles. From there the phenomenon spread across the globe; superheroes went from being feared arms of the state to a symbol of hope in these maddening times. Times have changed. Sixty years from the emergence of the first superhero, the City of London stands on a precipice. Two years have passed since the madman Fawkes nearly brought down the United Kingdom and the remnants of the Bow Street Runners, London's premier superhero team, are struggling to keep order in a city that seems on the brink of collapse. London stands on a knife's edge, with criminal organisations that once stuck to the shadows becoming more bold, and ancient powers from myth and legend making themselves known. Alexander Laszewski has recently 'awakened' and has become entirely unremakable, effectively making himself invisible to the world. He must use his newfound power to navigate a city on the edge of collapse. If only he could figure out how to turn it off.
