Chapter 149 - Alex's Birthday

It is now later on in the afternoon of Alex's birthday, and Kara, Lena and Alura are just arriving at Alex, Sam and Ruby's home. So far today, Lena and Kara have had a great time, never leaving their penthouse, other than to pick up Alura from school, and not wearing any clothes for most of the day. Needless to say, both Kara and Lena are currently incredibly satisfied, and in great moods.

"Mommy?" Alura says, from the back seat of the car.

"Yes, baby?" Kara replies, turning around to look at Alura, seeing as Lena is the one driving today.

"Why didn't I get to choose a birthday present for aunt Alex?" Alura asks.

Kara smiles widely at Alura.

"That's because the only birthday present Alex wants from you, is for you to be here with her, and give her a big hug and kiss." Kara explains.

"Okay." Alura smiles, very widely, with a nod of her head, "I'll do that."

Lena, Kara and Alura now pull up onto the driveway of Sam, Alex and Ruby's home. Once they do this, before they get out of the car, Lena turns to Kara.

"Do you mind getting Alura out while I make a call about Alex's present?" Lena asks.

"Sure. That's fine." Kara smiles back.

Kara and Lena both get out of the car. Lena then proceeds to walk to the street, further down the driveway, making a phone call, while Kara opens the door next to where Alura was sitting.

"What's momma doing?" Alura asks, curiously.

"She's just making a phone call to make sure aunt Alex's present is delivered on time." Kara explains.

"I thought your present to aunt Alex is in the back of the car?" Alura asks, confused.

"No. That is just part of Alex's birthday present from us. The other part is being delivered." Kara continues to explain.

"Oh. Okay." Alura nods.

Kara helps Alura out of her car seat, and the two then grab Alex's birthday present from the trunk of the car. The present is in a rectangle box that you can lift the lid off of, with the bow wrapped around it.

"What's inside?" Alura asks, curiously, as Kara hands her daughter the present to hold, because she knows that's a way for the 5-year-old to feel included.

"You'll have to wait and see." Kara says, with a smirk, "I know you, Alura, you are not very good at keeping secrets, especially from aunt Alex."

Alura then grows a pout on her face. Kara simply chuckles upon seeing it.

"Come on, baby. Let's head inside." Kara says, with a smile.

Kara and Alura proceed to walk up the driveway, and then knock on the front door. A few moments later, Sam opens the door for them.

"Hey guys!" Sam smiles, happily.

"Hey, Sam." Kara smiles back, stepping inside, followed by Alura.

"Hello, aunt Sam." Alura says.

"Hello, Alura. Where's Lena?" Sam asks.

"She's just making a phone call. She'll be in in a second." Kara explains.

Sam then peaks her head out of the front door and sees Lena on the phone standing at the end of the driveway.

"Okay." Sam says.

"Is everyone else already here?" Kara asks.

"Yeah. J'onn, Winn and Eliza are already here. You guys were the last ones to arrive." Sam explains.

"Okay. Good." Kara nods, with a smile on her face.

Kara and Alura then work their way further inside the home, eventually arriving in the living room area of the house, where Alex, Ruby, J'onn, Eliza and Winn are talking.

"Aunt Alex!!!!!!!!!!" Alura says, as soon as she sees her aunt.

Alex immediately turns her attention to Alura, and grows a smile on her face.

"Hey, guys." Alex smiles.

Alura then hands Kara Alex's present, and goes running over to Alex, taking her in for a big hug, which Alex reciprocates.

"Oooo.... This is nice." Alex hums.

"Mommy said that you wanted a big hug and kiss from me as your birthday present from me." Alura says, while she continues to hug Alex.

"Yes, that is correct, and now you have given me the hug. The best hug ever." Alex smiles.

Alex then stands up to her feet, all while holding Alura in her arms, and still hugging the five-year-old, who now has wrapped her legs around Alex's torso.

"But I believe I now get to have a kiss." Alex says, with a smile.

Alura parts from the hug a little bit, and then places a big kiss on one of Alex's cheeks. As Alura does this, Alex grows an even bigger smile on her face.

"Wow, that is very nice." Alex says.

"Happy birthday, aunt Alex. I love you." Alura says, cutely.

"Thank you, sweetie." Alex replies, "And I love you too."

Alex and Alura continue to hug for a few moments, but the redhead eventually places the 5-year-old back down on the ground, with Kara now approaching her sister.

"Why don't you go say hello to grandma?" Alex suggests to Alura, pointing her towards Eliza.

"Okay." Alura smiles, happily, and then walks in Eliza's direction.

Kara now approaches Alex.

"Hey, Al. Happy Birthday." Kara smiles, taking her sister in for a hug.

"Thank you, Kara." Alex says, hugging her sister back.

The two sisters continue to hug for a few moments before they eventually separate.

"Where's Lena?" Alex asks, looking around and not seeing the brunette.

Kara lets out a huff.

"I see how it is. Already chosen your favourite sister." Kara says, sarcastically.

Alex simply rolls her eyes in response, and before Kara has to answer, Lena and Sam come walking into the living room area.

"Hey, Alex. Happy Birthday." Lena smiles, approaching the birthday girl, and taking her in for a hug.

"Thank you, Lena." Alex smiles back, still hugging her future sister.

The group all then take their seats in the living room and begin drinking, chatting, and just generally having a great time with each other.

"So, what are we having for dinner?" Kara eventually asks, licking her lips.

Several members of the group laugh at Kara being the one to bring that up.

"Well...." Sam says, standing up, and walking into her kitchen, which can be seen from the living room, seeing as the area is open plan, "seeing as we can't all go out to dinner tonight, as it's a weekday, I thought the next best thing would be for us all to have some nice steaks."
