Smallville: Clark Kent (Superman)
Kagome sighed as she stood in the overly ornate room; he did have a knack for showing off, and glanced at her watch. He was late, a rare occurrence from him since he prided himself on his punctuality. It was one of the very annoying traits he shared with Sesshoumaru-sama. Which was probably why they got along so well, both men were multi billionaires running their own corporations and changing the world.
She walked the perimeter of his desk, the heels of her black ankle high boots clacking lightly against the hard wood floors, the sound echoing in the large room. She trailed a manicured finger over the cold hard wood of his desk. She knew he hated it when people messed with his desk and he knew she hated to be kept waiting, so they were even.
With a dark twist of her plump pink lisps she talked her way to the other side of his desk and sat down in his plush leather chair. She briefly wondered f he and Sesshomaru bought their chairs form the same place. If so it must be an exclusive club since no one else ever had such nice comfy chairs.
Her dark blue eyes took in the items that littered his desk, paper work, a top of the line computer, and a few picture frames. Her eye slowly trialed over the obligatory pictures of him and his father, both looking like it pained them to near the other. A smile pulled at her lips when she spotted one of her and him, if anyone who didn't know them and their relationship saw it they would think they were dating. She scrunched up her nose at that thought; it would be like dating Sesshomaru, icky. She thought of the two similar males as elder brothers nothing more.
Too bad the tabloids didn't get it. Always starting rumors about them, calling her a money grubbing gold digger trying to weave her web around the two males. She rolled her eyes, she hated the press.
She blinked when she caught site of a relatively new photo, not having been there during her last visit. It was of with Lex and a younger boy, most likely still in high school. They were in front of a rusty old truck, though younger then Lex he was just as tall. Dark black slightly curly hair fell to his ears, blue eyes radiating happiness and mirth as he posed with Lex. Lex stood next to him a rare genuine smile on his face, one hand resting on the board shoulder of the boy.
She arched a brow, was Lex into males now? Not that it bothered her, her own adopted son swung both ways, yet it would be a shocker if proven true. He had always prided himself on being a ladies' man. In fact when they had first met he had tried to woo her, and had failed miserably.
After he had gotten over his hurt pride they had become great friends. It had been three years since then and their friendship was still going strong, if not getting stronger.
She looked up at the double oak wooden doors as they were opened and offered a smile to the lightly flustered Lex as he entered, the boy from the picture trailing behind him.
"Ah, Kagome! So sorry to keep you waiting!" She smiled as she stood up and met him halfway in the middle of the room and threw her arms rounds his neck giving him a tight hug. She laughed as he pulled back yet still kept her in his arms and nodded at the boy.
"Kagome this is Clark, Clark this is Kagome." She smiled at the boy, no young man and was rewarded with a smile back. She furrowed her eyebrows lightly as she took in his aura. She was fiercely protective over her friends and she wanted to make sure he held no ill intentions towards her friend.
Yet she was slightly put off, his aura was different, not human yet not demon nor was he a mix in between the two, it was nothing she had ever felt before. It wasn't bad, if anything he radiated good intentions and purity, yet she wanted to know what he was.
A trait picked up from her adopted son back when they traveled together in the past when he was a child. Now that she was in her own time and he was an adult, and older then her at that, it had worsened.
The damned kitsune got her into so many stick and embarrassing satiations now a days she was ready to zap him. Though it was all fun and games, and sometimes she was the one to drag them into odd situations because of her curiosity, the tabloids ate it up and spit out viscous rumors.
She blinked, clearing her thoughts as Clark inclined his head at her in a friendly gesture. "Hello, sorry Lex was late I kind of needed him for something." She thought it was cute the way he blushed, genuinely feeling bad for making their mutual fried late.
She merely waved off his apology. "It's fine, though you can make it up to me by joining us for dinner." She ignored Lex as he cocked an eyebrow at her.
Clark blushed and ran a had through his hair. "Er, I'm hardly dressed to go out with you two."It was true he was in a red and black flannel shirt and jeans while Lex was in black slacks and a dark blue dress shirt with a black tie. Kagome was dressed in a plain black cocktail dress. Though it looked anything but ordinary on her.
Kagome wrinkled her nose. "No worries, I myself hate being dragged to the stuffy places he likes to go to. I say we go into the city and hit up an Applebee's."
Lex sighed, as he threw his hands up in the air. "Fine, fine well do what you want. You are after all my guest. Come on Clark there's no saying no this woman." He laughed as Kagome huffed at him.
Clark smiled, not used to seeing Lex act so normal and playful with anyone but himself and decided that he would join them. "Sure, sure but you're paying."He laughed as Kagome grinned at him taking his arm in hers.
"You're my kind of man Clark, come along Lex." With that she led the blushing young man down the hallway her heels clicking on the hard wood floors.
Lex rolled his eyes but followed after his two best friends wondering how the night would turn out, a devious smirk on his lips.
