Lex woke up to find a empty room and note attached to his chest. He should have been ready to find her gone, but it still hurt. He had set himself up again and she had played him. Every time she came over she left before he woke. It was starting to become painless, but at the same time it was so torrid. How did being left feel so good?

Maybe it was because he knew on some level he didn't deserved her. He knew that she could have any man she wanted, but she choose him. Every day he thought he was dreaming and that if she hurt him enough with the continued leaving and teasing he would die. But it hadn't came yet so he guessed it worked in his favor.

Lex pulled the note open, hoping it was not bad new. It was a simple note telling him she had been called in by the league and that she wanted to meet him later. She didn't say where or what time, but he guess she would send him something or call him later. He was just thankful she still wanted to see him. It was a relief to know she still wanted him, it made him feel less bad for the fact they couldn't be open with the world.

He got up, peeling the sheets off him. Walking in to the bathroom and passing the mirror let him see how fervid the night before had gotten. He had a few scratch marks on his chest and a lot on his back. His hips were bruised and he had a few passion marks on his chest and neck. That's what he got for loving a super strong woman. As he got in the shower he wondered what she was doing and if she was okay.

Diana looked around the meeting table she was sitting at. There was a emergency meeting called at seven in the morning and she had no idea why. Most of their meetings were at a reasonable time and if they weren't they were warning before hand. This had to be big if it was called like this. The founding members were siting there waiting for Superman to come. He had called the meeting and was now running late, it was a first. Most days he was the first one there and the last to leave. Just when she was starting to get restless he came in, his cape blowing out behind him.

When he reached the front of the room he didn't speak. He looked at them in though, maybe getting together what he wanted to say. When he did speak it was not what she wanted to hear, "Lex Luther is planning something,"

She kept her groan of disappointment inside. The same story from him was getting old. Ever since Lex saved the world from disaster, superman trusted him less. Lex had some how got apocalypse and his men to leave and had came back a few weeks later. From that moment on in Superman had gotten back to leading the I hate Lex Luther fan club. He had never told her what happened, but he told her it changed him forever. She didn't press him about it ether, she'd let him tell her in time.

"He has been to quiet for too long," Superman's fist hit the table making it shake. He was losing his temper and it was happening more often. It seemed to her the less evil Lex did the more Superman tried to find things he was doing.

"Proof please," She said. As soon as the words left her mouth she wanted to take him back. Every eye in the room fell on her. She knew Lex was Superman's enemy until the day one of them died and never to question it. It was a unsaid rule, that if Superman wanted to go against him they did. Lex was the one person Superman would never trust and it burned her so bad.

"He's been to quiet. He's planning something," Superman said.

Diana let her hands fall on the table and waited for him to say more. She knew he wold want them to do something. Werther it be watch the man or wait for him to find something. All she knew was she had to be more careful about how she did things until Superman cold down.

"I want you all to be on alert and if you see anything tell me. Meeting over,"

With that said he walked out and everyone followed him, but her. She put her arms on the table and let her face fall on her hands. She was in a situation now and it seemed to have no end. Her best friend was on a personal quest against her lover. There was no way she would be able to see him later. They would have to slow up on the visits until this was over.

She got up from the table and walked to her room, in hopes she would feel better. When she got there she was set up for disappointment. She was alone again, the room empty and bare in emotions. She had planed to be their when Lex woke, but when the call came in she had to leave. He would loved to have found she was still there after many mornings of her leaving him alone.

Diana laid down and thought about what she could have done. He would have woken to find her asleep next to him. Her hair laid out on the pillow she had laid her head on. Her dress would still be on his floor instead, it was hanging in her closet. He would have gotten them breakfast and then she would have left. Instead she had to creep out and hope he didn't wake up.

She rolled over and pulled her phone from the night table she kept it inside. She was thankful to be based on the earth head quarters, it made talking to her much more easy. She looked at the phone to see their were several text messages and a missed call. It had to be him because he was the only one with the number. She could see him now texting her and calling to see if everything was alright. Diana knew he had seen her fighting villains and getting beat by some on TV. She knew it made him worry with the thought she could get hurt and never be able to see him again, but it happened with her line of work. She had gone to see him many times hurt from fighting, it really brothered him to see her banged up. Diana had told him she would get patched up first before she saw him, but he would have none of it. He wanted to be there for her and help her after a long day.

Tears sting her eyes, he was too much for her. He had changed and it was for the good. He cared about something besides power and money for once. The man was wonderful now and no one saw it but her. No one tried to see it but her, they never gave him chances and it was starting to hurt her. She wanted to see him in the open and let everyone know, but the gods didn't seem to want to favor her lover yet.

"Wonder Woman. This is Mr. Terrific, come in?"

"This is Wonder Woman,"

"We have a situation. A fire has tore threw the Lex corp building,"

Diana felt her heart sink and prayed to her gods he had not went into work today. She had just saw him this morning, "I'm on it,"

She looked through her phone and saw the last message he sent he told her he was going into and to meet him at the office. To many thoughts went threw her head at once and she was thankful to be sitting or she would have fell. But she had time, maybe he was safe or he could be trapped. She got up and ran to the telaporter.
