Ch.1Black out
"Thanks for the interview L… Mr. Luthor," Chloe said. Damn, I all most called him Lex. Nice going Sullivan. I hope he didn't notice. Wait, why do I care? God he's hot. Oh God where did that come from.
Lex pushed the button for the elevator.
"Any time Ms. Sullivan."spending time with you is haven. You're the most beautiful woman I've ever met. But I can never tell you this. "ha," Lex had to laugh at his own thoughts. One of the most powerful men in the world can't tell his crush he likes her.
"Care to let me in on the joke?" Chloe asked in her usual I-know-I'm-better-than-you tone of voice.
"I just can't believe you came all the way to metropolis to get the interview," Lex made up quickly. God, I'm too good at making up cover stories.
The elevator came.
"Shale we Ms. Sullivan," said the billionaire
They entered.
"You know me, anything to get a story," she replied.
When they were between the 19th and 18th floors the elevator came to a complete stop. And the lights flickered on and off till they went completely out. All of Metropolis was having a black out.
"What happening?" said the frightened journalist.
"The elevator stopped," Lex responded. "Don't worry it's probably only a power outage in the building." Lex picked up the emergency phone. "Hello this is Mr. Luthor. Our elevator has stopped."
"There's a black out in the whole city Mr. Luthor," said the man, "but well get some on it as soon as possible. There is a little power left in the generator, we can give get a little light in some parts of the building. What elevator are you in?". "We probably won't be able to get you out of her till morning though."
"Number 15," said Lex, "I understand said Lex but can you please get in touch with Mr. Sullivan and tell him his daughter is also stuck in here so he won't be worried."
"Yes Mr. Luthor, good bye," said the man.
"Thank you, good bye," said Lex.
"So what they say?" Chloe asked
"There's a black out, and well probably be stuck here till morning," Lex replied.
"Oh," said a much shaken Chloe.
