1. Day One

Day 1.

At the Kent Farm, Lois was waiting for a message from Queen Industries; the message was going to say whether or not the company was going to support Martha-Senator-Kent or not. Lois doubted that they would, but she knew that Martha thought that they would; Lois thought that rich people, like Lex Luthor, only did things if it benefited them and she assumed that Oliver Queen, who was the owner of Queen Industries, would be exactly the same.

There was a knock on the door, so Lois left her laptop on the kitchen table and opened the door. There, she found a rather good-looking man, with blonde hair and looked to be in his late twenties. He held out his hand and, smiling, said, "I'm Oliver Queen. I'm here to talk to Senator Kent-I want to give her my support."

"You're Oliver Queen?" Lois asked, as he had not been what she had been expecting and she had not expected him to be so polite….and good-looking. "Yeah, I am. Is Senator Kent in?"

Recovering from the shock, Lois shook her head. "No, she isn't in."

A smile spread across Oliver's face, as he asked, "Do you work for her?" When Lois nodded, he added. "That's great. I'll talk to you then and you can pass on what I say." With that, he walked into the house before Lois had a chance to object-not what she really wanted to, as she really liked this man.

After about half an hour of talking about politics, Oliver really liked Lois and he could tell that she felt the same way about him. "Tell you what, if Senator Kent is as great as you say she is, it's going to take more than half an hour of your time to convince me that she's worthy of my support," he watched her reaction closely, then asked, "How about you go out for lunch with me tomorrow?"

"I don't know where you live," Lois replied quickly, as she did not want to appear to be desperate.

Chuckling, Oliver replied, "That's fine. I'll come here and pick you up." He stood up, then asked, "Shall we say 1: oo?"

Lois shrugged. "Sure, whatever you want."

There was a silence, as their eyes met, then Oliver smiled and said, "Great. I'll see you tomorrow, Lois." With that, he left the house, leaving Lois stunned, wondering from where her good luck had come; she had only spent half an hour with Oliver and already, she really liked him.
