Chapter 192 - Nia's Dream

It is now a few more days later, and Nia is still staying with Kara, Lena, Alura and Morgan, although she has promised Kara and Lena that she has been apartment hunting. Lena and Kara are not too bothered about how long Nia stays though, because Alura and Morgan absolutely adore her, and Nia is more than happy to play with Alura and Morgan, no matter what activity they want to do. Nia has been swimming with the girls, played dress up, had a tea party, while also having played with a bunch of their toys. It seems that Nia being younger than Kara and Lena, and all the other adults that Alura and Morgan know, has allowed her to sort of create a very special bond with the two young children. Nia has been able to get in touch with her inner child, which has allowed her to get more in sync with Morgan and Alura. In fact, Lena and Kara know that when Nia does leave, and gets her own place, Morgan and Alura are going to be very sad. That is another reason that neither of them have even asked Nia about her apartment hunt. They don't want Nia to feel like they are prompting her, or rushing her to leave or anything.

Presently, it is late in the afternoon of a weekday. Nia is currently sitting on one of the couches in the living room, dozing in and out of sleep. Kara and Lena have noticed that Nia tends to sleep like this sometimes, but they have put it down to her narcolepsy. Kara and Lena are in the kitchen, just putting the finishing touches on their dinner for the evening, while Alura and Morgan are upstairs, playing or something.

"Okay. I think it's time to call the girls." Lena smiles, once she and Kara finish dishing up all the food onto 5 plates.

"Yeah. And wake Nia." Kara says, nodding her head in Nia's direction.

Lena simply chuckles at noticing Nia half asleep, or maybe completely asleep.

"Go on. You call the girls. I'll wake Nia." Lena says.

Kara nods her head, and then makes her way over to the staircase. Lena, meanwhile, walks over to Nia, about to wake her up.

"Girls! Dinner!" Kara yells up the stairs.

"Nia we...." Lena begins.

Suddenly Nia jerks awake.

"Morgan!" Nia yells out.

Nia quickly goes running out of the living room, and towards the staircase, while Morgan and Alura can both be heard running towards the stairs from upstairs. As Nia approaches the stairs, Kara notices Nia running towards her, and grows a confused look on her face. Nia soon runs up the stairs, and at the same time, Morgan and Alura begin to run down. However, just as Morgan and Alura get about 4 steps down the staircase, Morgan trips, and begins to fall over, with nowhere to catch her balance or anything. Thankfully though, Nia is just in time to grab her, and prevent her from falling.

"Gotcha!" Nia says, grabbing hold of Morgan, and breathing a big sigh of relief.

"Nia." Morgan says, letting out a shaky breath, clearly frightened by what just happened.

"Yeah, it's me." Nia smiles, while still holding Morgan close to her.

Meanwhile, Lori is just standing towards the bottom of the stairs now, with a confused look on her face, while Kara has a shocked one. Kara knows that somehow Nia knew that Morgan was going to fall, but she shouldn't have.

"Uhhhhh..... girls.... let's..... have dinner...." Kara says, in a slow manner, still a bit confused about what Nia just did.

"Yeah." Nia nods, and carefully places Morgan back down onto the ground.

Nia and Morgan then walk down the stairs, meeting Kara and Lori at the bottom.

"Are you okay, Morgan?" Kara asks.

"Yes, jeju." Morgan nods, while biting her lip slightly.

"Good." Kara says, "But that is why momma and I tell you and Lori not to run down the stairs like that. If it hadn't been for Nia, you could have really gotten hurt."

"Yes, okay. I promise to not run down the stairs anymore." Morgan says, in a cute voice.

"Good girl." Kara smiles, "Now, thank Nia for saving you."

"Thank you, Nia." Morgan says, turning to look at the young reporter.

"You're welcome. I'm just glad you're okay." Nia smiles, widely, at Morgan.

After this, Kara, Nia, Lena, Morgan and Alura all have their dinner, with them talking quietly throughout. During the dinner though, Kara's brain is filled up with thoughts as to how Nia knew about Morgan falling. Lena, for her part, doesn't even mention it, because she didn't really see what Nia did, and Kara hasn't had a chance to even explain it to her future wife.

After the group eat their dinner, they all sit in the living room and watch a movie, before Kara and Lena put Morgan and Alura to bed. It is at this point where Kara finally tells Lena about what Nia did.

"Are you sure that's what happened?" Lena asks, "Couldn't it be possible that Nia ran upstairs because she needed to go to the toilet or something, when she woke up?"

"No. She said Morgan's name before she ran up the stairs, you said!" Kara says.

"Yeah.... right...." Lena nods, "Maybe...... maybe she is able to see the future or something.... Maybe that is why she wants to get in contact with Supergirl?"

"Maybe, but she hasn't brought up meeting Supergirl to me since I mentioned it the first time I met her. I just.... I get the feeling it's a subject Nia is nervous about." Kara says.

"Well, I imagine she would be nervous about it, if it has something to do with her maybe being able to see the future." Lena says.

"Yeah, maybe." Kara nods.

"So, what do you want to do?" Lena asks.

Kara looks at Lena for a few seconds and sighs.

"I think we need to talk to Nia. I mean, I trust Nia completely. But.... I think that maybe if we actually get her to open up to us, about what is going on with her, we might be able to help her." Kara says, "Like, I doubt that she actually has narcolepsy. I think that might have something to do with whatever is going on with her."

"Yeah, you might be right." Lena nods.

Lena and Kara then walk back downstairs, into their living room, where they see Nia clearly nervously waiting for them.

"I guess..... we need to talk about what happened." Nia says, nervously.

Kara and Lena both nod their heads, and decide to take a seat parallel from Nia on a separate couch, wanting to give her some space, but not too much to make her think that they want to stay away from her or anything.

"Nia, before you begin...." Kara says, "We can tell that something is going on with you. We.... we trust you with Morgan and Alura. If you are not comfortable with telling us what happened.... or what is happening.... you don't have to. But..... we both hope you do tell us, simply because.... I think you are struggling.... and you need someone.... or multiple people.... to help you..... and we can do that."

Nia then proceeds to look at Lena and Kara for a few moments, before nodding her head and taking a deep breath.

"Okay." Nia says, "So..... I........ I know I have told you both that I'm trans..... but..... I'm also part alien."
