(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlzY6cWpoMQ)<br/><strong>TAGGING:</strong><strong>Supergirl</strong><br/><hr/><br/>Kara giggled, closing her eyes and smiling with glee when he brushed her cheek with his lips.<br/><br/>"Oh, you're definitely corrupting me", she jokingly replied.<br/><br/>As far as being corrupted went, this was by far the most fun way she had been the subject of an exterior influence and Kara had no intention of resisting it.<br/><br/>“I am sorry Kara…” He continued in his hyper pitch so she all only could hear him. “…I plan to corrupt you so…much more.” His tongue stroked her earlobe as he moved away and kissed her neck lightly.  She was going to have to get used to his affection as he wanted her so much more than she probably knew.<br/><br/>She nodded and immediately replied: "Of course we did! The Guild of Arts was one of the biggest! All the Houses have artworks in their homes, and the lower castes as well. It's just... I guess I wasn't paying attention then. And also Earth has such a wide variety of styles, genres, and subjects. Krypton's art was more... elegant, but also more sterile. You know what I mean?"<br/><br/>Kara held his arm closer as they walked and she reminisced. There was always a bittersweet feeling when Krypton was a conversation subject. As much as she loved to share how life was back there, it was difficult not thinking about her friends and her family and not feeling the loss again.<br/><br/>She nodded, her exuberance having left her for the time being, and she replied with a darker tone.<br/><br/>Jackson noticed the change in her tone as she talked about Krypton and realized that was probably still a fresh wound for her given that she was not short out of the pod or through the time frame so she could probably remember it like it was yesterday.<br/><br/>“Yeah baby that is fine, we can look at other forms of art and maybe we can paint together sometime.” He spoke as he was feeling rather comfortable with her.<br/><br/>"I suppose I am a geek. Or whatever it is you call intellectuals here. We didn't really have term for that back home. It wasn't seen as an... inadequacy the way it is here sometimes."<br/>She had seen 'geeks' and 'nerds' being teased and bullied in high school - even having a hard time resisting the urge to intervene, and occasionally failing - so she was aware of what it sounded like to be mocked for the reasons of being a more cerebral person. Jackson didn't sound like that at all, however, she did feel like an alien at that moment, when it was made to sound<em>unusual</em>to be interested in matters of science.<br/><br/>“It is fine I am a geek/nerd too. Not sure if that is a good thing or bad. But I am sure there are some other things or moments of creativity that we can go through and learn together.” He lifted her chin as he moved with her to the table, he looked into those eyes and felt like he was about to drown. He knew they should dance or sit and get something to drink. He was on the verge of wanting to make love to her here…and now!<br/><br/>She smiled softly wistfully at him.<br/><br/>"But I know you're not saying that to judge me. It's just that talking about how things were on Krypton and how they<em>could</em>have been is like scratching off a scab sometimes."<br/><br/>Squeezing his arm as they walked, she felt the need to apologize: "I'm sorry, this is a happy moment, I shouldn't feel sad."<br/><br/>“Hey, it is ok. I don’t think you need to be sorry. I didn’t know or…I wasn’t thinking for you it is still fresh and I am sorry. I just…I want to know you, Kara, to be in your world, your body is not all I want, I want your heart too.” He said caressing her cheek before taking her hand and kissing it before they moved to the table to sit.  He realized he was right in thinking she needed more time for that particular wound maybe his...their relationship would give her time to heal that scab.<br/><br/>Kara agreed. Even though it was unlikely for her even be<em>able</em>to get drunk, it would be a waste to do so. She wanted to have a nice time with her new boyfriend and she wanted to remember it. Indulging in recreational drugs wasn't how she wanted to do it. She looked around the bar, taking in the atmosphere and discreetly watching the other patrons before returning her attention to Jackson.<br/><br/>"What did you order?", she asked.<br/><br/>“Sex on the beach without any alcohol. It will taste the same but won’t have the kick. Under the circumstances…I don’t think either of us can get drunk anyway unless we drink a whole lot. I…I want to be with you and I want to remember every touch, every moment, every caress of you!” He stated clearly commanding as he linked his fingers with hers.<br/><br/>The band was playing a simple Jazz riff in the background.<br/><br/>
