Let it snow - chapter 3

After three seconds of hesitation, Emily decided to go with the hug. Romy was a bit surprised at first, but she quickly let herself go, and enjoy the moment. It had been too long since she had felt someone else’s warmth against her, and it felt good. So damn good. Emily’s touch was soft, and for a moment Romy thought she could stay in her arms for hours. But then she remembered that she was standing in an airport, hugging a girl she had met minutes ago and knew nothing about... and she broke the hug.

"I’m sorry if this was awkward, it’s just that it’s been a rough year for me and you were there and you offered a hug and-

- Hey, it’s okay, you don’t have to apologize. I don’t have any siblings but I do have a best friend, and god knows I would also be a mess if anything happened to him.

Romy nodded as she tried to put herself together and wiped a few tears off her cheeks. There. She finally learnt something about Emily. And got to see this other side of her personality, a calmer, softer one... And she actually liked it.

"Oof this isn’t the kind of days I was expecting. Sorry you have to witness all of this. Do you want us to sit down somewhere so you can drink your chocolate or?

- Yes, let’s go near a window so we can see what’s happening outside."

And so they walked towards the nearest sits facing the landing runway. Snowflakes were falling all over the place and were beginning to cover the aircrafts stucked on the ground. Staff members were running from the airplanes to the airport, carrying all the suitcases they could. Romy couldn't help but think that maybe they were going to stay here longer than expected.

"It is a bit scary, isn’t it? Said Emily, getting Romy out of her thoughts. Being trapped in a snow storm. But I also find it kind of beautiful.

- Beautiful? How?

- Look at the sky. Have you ever seen anything like that before? The clouds and the snow coming all together so you can’t tell where the horizon is anymore. The sky is just a beautiful palet of grey shades, starting from the brightest right there, she said as she pointed to their left, to the darkest on this side."

And when she thought about it this way, Romy found it pretty beautiful indeed.

"You’re an art student, aren’t you? She asked.

- Guilty! I’m on my third year aka the year all about painting, and I have to say it’s my favorite.

- You seem passionate, it’s good to meet people like that!"

Romy wasn't used to talking to strangers but there was something about Emily that made it so easy. She had the ability to make people believe they’ve known her their entire life, and Romy was starting to be fascinated by her.

"How’s your hot chocolate anyway?

- Hot!

- Ahah. And other than that? Does it taste good?

- It does yes. Wanna taste it?

- Oh uhm... I don’t know, I mean it is yours and it’s my apology gift-

- Come on, just take a sip already! Plus, I paid for it remember? Emily giggled.

- Don’t remind meee, I feel so bad! Let me just-"

They got interrupted by another announcement. "Ladies and gentlemen, non binary folks, as some of you may know, the situation is getting worse. We are sorry to announce that all the flights are cancelled until tomorrow. But since we are Canadians and even more than that, Canadians from the best city in Canada, we will offer you all a night at the greatest palace of Vancouver. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. See you all tomorrow. And in the meantime please take care of yourselves."

" Oh nooo... Do you still think it’s beautiful?

- Maybe not so much ahah, but you know what? I’ve always wanted to book a room in a five stars hotel, and now we get to have one for free? Maybe it was destiny.

- You can’t help but be positive at everything, can you?

- I always choose to see the glass half full rather than half empty! Allons-y! Oh and I figured out what you could do about my coat!

- Ahah what now?

- Be my roommate for the night?"

Can you do something with lucy and Maggie coming home to a sick and stubborn Alex and being protective and doting girlfriends? Fluff please?

Read on AO3.

Maggie calls just after eleven.

“Code Green.”

“Maggie I love you but I’m in a meeting, I need toconcentrate.”

“No that’s Code Blue babe. Code Green is-“

“Oh! I remember. I’ll go by the pharmacy on my way home.”

“Thanks Luce.”

“Do you know what mood she’s in?”

“She said Kara made her lemon tea with honey so goblackberry.”

“Okay.”

“I love you too, by the way.”

“Love you. When do you get off?”

“In an hour or so.”

“Alright. I’ll take the afternoon off and get our littlegrump some soup. See you soon.”

“See you.”

Lucy hangs up and peers through the glass wall of the conferenceroom. Half her new associates are staring out the window, or playing on theirphones. The other half look like they’re about to fall asleep into theirlukewarm mugs of crap office coffee. Lucy decides it’s only fair to give them abreak.

“Alright ladies, gentlemen and non-binary folks,” she saysas she strides back into the room. “I’m sure you’ll all be devastated but I’mgoing to have to cut today’s meeting short.” She stifles a smile at the hopefullooks they shoot her way.

“Is there a new case?”

“No. Just some personal stuff.”

“Is Maggie okay?” someone asks, concerned. Maggie had comein to give them a talk about her precinct, and she’d won them all overcompletely.

“She’s fine, Alex is ill. Nothing major.”

There’s a chorus of hopeshe gets well soon’s as Lucy gathers up her coat and briefcase, and shesmiles at them all before leaving, pulling her phone back out of her pocket totext Alex.

Lucy: Be home soonbabe x.

Alex texts back almost immediately.

Alex: I’m fine.

Lucy chuckles, putting her phone away but having to take itback out again before she gets in the lift to see a text from Kara.

Kara: She has a bad cold.No need for the CDC just cuddles and soup.Kara: Also potstickers from that place bythe pharmacy?

Lucy: On it. Thanksfor taking care of her.

Kara: She’s my sister,I’d do anything for her.Kara: And for potstickers.

Lucy lets herself into Alex’s apartment. The tv is onquietly, a rerun of The Wizard of Oz, and the curtains are closed. Lucy can seeKara’s head over the back of the sofa, and grins when she spots Alex’sfavourite fluffy socks poking over the arm. She leans her briefcase against thewall and wanders into the kitchen to sort the food.

She leaves the potstickers on the edge of the table forKara, takes a deep bowl from the cupboard and stands the pot of takeaway Noonan’ssoup in it. Alex doesn’t usually spill things on the couch, but Lucy knows fromexperience how clumsy she can be when she’s sick. The plastic spoon rattlesagainst the bowl and Alex’s voice drifts from the couch.

“Is that you Lucy?”

“I’m here. I got you leek and potato. And some blackberrystrepsils for your throat.”

“Thank you.” Alex sniffles and pushes herself up into a seatedposition as Lucy comes into the sitting room.

Kara turns to grin at Lucy, getting up so Lucy can sit nextto Alex. “On the kitchen table,” Lucy says, and Kara skips happily into the kitchenfor her potstickers.

“I’m fine Luce,” Alex whines, her voice low and gravelly.Her eyes are red and puffy, cheeks pale. Her hair looks like she just rolledout of bed. She’s pouting and Lucy laughs, putting the soup on the low coffeetable and pulling Alex into a hug.

“Did J’onn send you home?”

Alex just nods against her shoulder.

“She refused to acknowledge she was sick, we had to manhandleher home actually.” Kara chimes in from the kitchen.

Lucy smiles. Alex is stubborn, she’d work through the BlackPlague if she could, but every now and then she’s forced into a sick day becauseof her ‘stupid immune system.’ Luckily Lucy and Maggie dote on her like motherhens, and eventually Alex relents and lets them take care of her.

“Cuddles,” Alex demands, snuggling closer to Lucy. Sheswipes her hand through the air on her other side. “Where’s Maggie?”

“She’ll be home soon,” Lucy says. “Want something to eat?”

Alex huffs out an overblown sigh and sits back up. Shesniffles again and tugs a tissue from the huge box on the table. Kara’s scribbledout ‘man size’ and written ‘superhero size’ in sharpie on the box. Alex blowsher nose loudly and coughs, crumpling the tissue into a ball and lobbing it atthe bin next to the coffee table.

“Score,” Alex mumbles, half raising her fist in the air whenit goes in. She picks up the spoon from the soup bowl, gripping it in her fistlike a two-year old. Kara reappears as she happily digs in, resting her hand onAlex’s shoulder briefly.

“I have to go, superhero things.”

“Bye,” Alex says around a mouthful of potato.

Lucy gets up and pulls Kara into a hug. “Thanks for keepingan eye on her.”

“I’ll leave her in your very capable hands,” Kara says andopens the door just as Maggie’s reaching for the handle. “Hey, Maggie.”

“Hey, Kara. You off?”

“Yeah. National City doesn’t grind to a stop just becauseAgent Danvers isn’t on the case,” she laughs, and strides off down the hall.

“It should,” Alex grumbles from the sofa.

Maggie pushes the door shut and winks at Lucy. “Of coursebabe.”

Lucy pulls Maggie into a soft kiss, her hands going to herwaist to grip at her leather jacket. Maggie smiles into the kiss, tilting herchin up.

“Stop making out and take care of me,” Alex gripes from thecouch. Maggie pulls away from Lucy and leans over the back of the couch to kissthe top of Alex’s head. Lucy plops back onto the couch as Maggie shrugs out ofher coat and boots, settling down on Alex’s other side and taking her hand.

“How are you feeling?”

“Like I could run a marathon and beat up Draaga with mypinkie.”

“So not very well.”

“No,” Alex whines, curling into Maggie’s side. “I’m cold.”

Maggie unfolds the blanket that they keep over the back ofthe sofa, spreading it over Alex’s knees before Alex tucks herself under herarm. Maggie runs her fingers through Lucy’s hair when she leans into Alex’sother side. The credits are rolling for the film Alex was watching, so Lucyreaches for the remote and pulls up Netflix. She flicks through a couple of randomaction movies before Alex stops her on RED, her favourite film to fall asleepto.

Lucy and Maggie share a soft look. Alex shifts until she’smore comfortable, head in Maggie’s lap and feet tucked into Lucy’s. She smileswhen Maggie starts playing with her hair. The film starts and Alex yawns andcloses her eyes.

Lucy and Maggie chat quietly about their days, or in Maggie’scase her night shift. Maggie laughs at the shitty coffee machine in Lucy’soffice, and Lucy promises to stop by the station with bagels on her way to workin the morning. Alex falls asleep long before the movie finishes, Maggie andLucy taking the opportunity to nap away the quiet afternoon too.

Kara comes back late in the evening, finds them tangled togetherasleep on the couch and grins, shutting off the tv on a movie long sincefinished and leaves them too it.
