Lily's VS Roses
Victor's POV
"We've got to abort Victor, now." Reed's eyes were panicked and that certainly made the threat so much bigger in Victors mind than anything else.
"Why do you tell me that? Get Ben's ass back into the station. The shields should provide protection."
Reed just nodded and hurried of to Ben and Johnny.
Victor climbed the ladder to close the shields.
Turning to Sue he said: "You stay here and open the door when we come back."
She shook her head: "I want to come with you."
"Don't be silly. One of us has to stay in here. The door can't be opened from the outside and if we wait with activating the shields until we're all back here, we won't have enough time before the sun wave hits us."
With that said he pushed the activate button and run of to follow Reed.
Heart hammering in his chest, as he saw the light of the sun wave coming closer over Ben's shoulder, he swallowed thickly.
Grabbing Johnny by the arm he said: "Go back to the main room. It's safer there."
"I'll wait for Ben. I don't leave friends behind!" Retorted the blond, stubborn as ever.
"No, you just leave family behind. Your place is by your sisters side, dumb ass." The Dark haired businessman hissed annoyed.
Johnny flinched and threw a desperate look to Ben, who was still 15 feet away and nodded.
"Go, now."
And Johnny ran back to the main room.
Victor took a few steps more and stood beside Reed who looked anxious towards his friend, outside the station.
"Common, Ben. Just a bit more." The smaller man whispered.
Victor watched as Ben and the sun wave came towards them. His mind already knew the fact that Ben wasn't going to make it in time.
Or them.
Even if the bald man would make it to them before the sun wave, they wouldn't be able to get back behind the protection of the shields, before they were hit.
Taking a deep breath he put a hand on Reed's shoulder.
The other man looked up to him, his eyes filled with fear and something akin to gratitude for Victor.
Victor just nodded to him in acceptance and as they both turned back to Ben, the other man was nearly there.
But so was the sun wave.
His last thought before blacking out was, that at least he had been able to spend his final moments with Reed...

Reed's POV
Reed flew in a thick darkness, the only thing keeping him company were the guilt and self hatred, over his mistake.
If he hadn't miscalculated so badly, his friends wouldn't be hurt.
What the hell had he been thinking.
As he slowly resurfaced from the dark confines of his mind he prayed that everyone was okay or would be as soon as possible.
The first thing he noticed as he woke up was the scent of flower's and the breeze of cool air.
Opening his eyes and sitting up, his mouth opened in shock.
It seemed that someone had ransacked an entire flower shop.
Roses and lily's in every color decorated his room and, by all atoms of the periodic table, he couldn't think of one person who would send him those.
They had to be for Sue and just ended up here because of some pot smoking, idiotic delivery boy.
Seriously, who the hell would send him roses and lily's?
The answer to that was as easy and as crazy as the idea of the cold fusion.
Next to his bed were one bucket of red roses and one bucket of white Lilly's. Both held cards within them.
With shaking hands he grabbed the white card between the roses first.
As he opened it the familiar writing made his breath hitch.
Dear Reed, as soon as you wake up. I'll be over.
Love. Sue
He stared at the words for a moment before totally starting to panic.
Did Sue have feelings for him, still.
How the hell could he tell her that he wasn't interested?
That she meant much to him, but not enough anymore, for them to start again.
Or was this just her telling him that he meant much to her as a friend?
Okay, so roses were kind of more like friends, but what did he know about women's logic?
Maybe he was just overreacting?
Yeah, that must be it. Seriously, she was practically engaged to Victor. This couldn't mean more than a simple, love you as a friend.
Letting out a deep sigh he turned to the other bucket of flowers and ripped the blue card from between the Lilly's.
His eyes went wider with every word he read.
Reed, don't blame yourself. Nobody, could have foreseen this. Everyone's alright, if a little shaken up. The board of the company had a fit about this but I've calmed them down for now. If they send a lawyer to you, DO NOT answer any questions, before we've talked. By the way we really need to talk, so call me as soon as you read this.
And if you still blame yourself by the time I show up (and believe me, I'll know), there'll be serious and devious plans in place to convince you otherwise. So don't tempt me.muahahahaha
PS: I had been thinking about a card with sound, 'cause my evil laugh is so much better, now than it was in college...only reason I decided against it was the scared look I got from the delivery boy, as I was writing these lines. Looks like I had been giggling a bit crazy when I prepared this card. You can imagine the guy's face if I had actually recorded my maniac laugh on one of this things. Poor boy would've probably gotten a stroke. Although it might have been fun to do it just for that reason.
Sincerely: Your evil Corporate Raider
Reed couldn't help it. He started to giggle like a schoolgirl.
That was one of the reasons he loved Victor. The guy could always make him smile, if he tried.
Still giggling he grabbed the phone next to his bed and called his friend.

Sue's POV
She knew she was losing. After the last few day's all of them had other problems than the little fight she and Victor had over Reed, but she could still see it.
As they'd started to get their powers everything seemed to be second place in their life's but she still knew that Victor was getting closer to his goal than she was.
In a way that didn't really surprise her, but it pissed her off fairly.
Even though she was around Reed more often than Victor, it didn't really seem to make a difference.
This moment just made her realize it more.
Victor had come over to ask how they were doing and assuring Reed for the hundred's time that the company wouldn't try to sue him for their loses.
They stood across from each other and, for all that was sacred, Reed still seemed oblivious that she and Victor were fighting over him.
"I've started to analyze the sun wave and I maybe able to change us back, but it could take a while."
"Don't overdo it. If you're to exhausted to think straight, you won't be any help at all."
The smile Victor threw the smaller man made her lips curl into a sneer.
"I've got something for you though." Reed said and hurried back to his lab.
He came back a few minutes later, carrying a large box and a thick folder.
"I know your company had problems with their C17 project and I've looked into it."
He handed the box and the folder over to Victor, who put the box down and started to scan the documents.
"This should solve it and I put another project of mine into the box. After the disaster I caused, I thought this would help." He didn't say 'help you' but it was implied and it made Sue bite her lower lip in frustration.
Victor was grinning like a kid on Christmas morning and threw an arm around Reed's shoulders.
"Thanks, man. Now, there's no way to stop my evil plan's of world domination, anymore." He announced, cackling darkly.
She could see Reed relaxing into the embrace and shivering at the (she had to admit, very sexy) sound coming out of Victor's mouth.
Damn that hot bastard for steeling her man...

So? Still okay?
