oOo Chloe oOo
"Hello?"
"Good afternoon Ms. Sullivan."
" Please - Call me Chloe. So what brings Mr. Luthor himself to call me on such a fine day?"
Fine day my.
"Please, just Lex. I've decided to grant you an interview, based on the fact that you had been leaving messages on my answering machine all last week. I figured if I do this now, you may spare me a few days of messages until you want another interview."
Oh yea.I forgot about those. Haha - Looks like I don't need Clark after all. Now who gets the last laugh???
"Thanks a lot. As you can tell I've really wanted to talk to you about your latest major investment in Luthor Corp. So when is a good time for you?"
"Actually, I had someone cancel on me last minute for this evening, so around 3:30 at my place would be good."
"3:30?"
"Is there a problem? If so, I might be able to squeeze you in in about a week or two."
A WEEK!!! I need that interview AFSAP!!! As in AS FRIGGIN' SOON AS POSSIBLE!! The next torch comes out in two days, and unfortunately Smallville has granted me no freak of the week. I need something, and this interview would be perfect.
"Oh nonono 3:30 sounds great!! It's a date!!"
It's a date??
"Speaking of dates, are you and Clark still an item?"
You had to ruin it, didn't you Mr.Make-everyone-feel-like-shit?? I was fiiiiinally happy then you had to go and say the C word. I hesitate for a minute and decide to hit him with a snappy remark.
"Lex - please. I thought I was the one granted an interview?"
Lex gives a slight, relaxed chuckle. "Well I guess we can save the questions for tonight. See you at 3:30 Chloe."
I hit the 'end' button and it all smacks me.
.Was I hearing things??? Did Lex just call me CHLOE??? Wow.that's a major improvement. First he stops avoiding me and calls me, then he actually listens and calls me Chloe. And he chuckled. Lex.chuckled. Have I slipped into a parallel universe??? Oh wait - Clark was just hugging Lana. Nevermind. I think Lex just wants me over so he can ask me about Clark, anyways. He's always concerned about him.
I hear footsteps coming towards me and I quickly spin around to check the halls. Someone's coming towards me, but they just turned the corner and have their head down. Uhoh.I think it's the principal. Luckily the girls bathroom is right across from me, so I make a dive for the restrooms and hope that he didn't notice. Geez. I guess I forgot that I have a whole 'nother class to go to.or do I?? I think I'll just skip this one and fake sick if anyone asks. If I do that then don't have to put up with some old balding guy jumping down my throat for being late. I know it's not like me, but everyone's gotta be bad sometime. And if I skip 6th, I can have enough time to prep questions for Lex, and make myself look at least half way decent with lots of concealer to hid my rather large scar from my fight with the table. Two-for-one deal.I'll take it.
I peek my head out the door and no one's in sight. I jump out and make a run for the end of the parking lot that leads to the parking lot. Look at me - I'm Spider Girl!!! I continue darting down the halls until I realize that there's a teacher right in front of me! I try to stop but boots and slick hallway floors aren't the best of friends. In the attempt I end up tripping, and the teacher, who I now recognize as Mr. Dunlis, breaks my fall. Quick.think!!! THINK!!!!
"OMYGOSHMISTERDUNLISIAMSOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I fly off of him and help him up, at the same time trying to scramble for the papers that were flying in the air due to impact.
"Ms. Sullivan?? Don't you have class??"
I start backing away from him and into the direction of the parking lot while trying to make up some excuse for darting out of class and trouble.
"I'm sorry but I can't really talk now Mr. Dunlis - You see.my favorite Aunt just came to visit like she does every month and - "
Mr. Dunlis' eyes get really wide and then he cuts me off as soon as he realizes what I'm talking about.
"Oh I see Chloe.well.uh.just be sure to sign out at the office!"
Before he can finish I speed up and speed down to the parking lots. I knew that old "womanly problems" gag would get him - it always works on the unexpected male prey. I finally really the parking lot and my eyes shoot around to find my little old car. My eyes pick it out in the middle lane, and luckily it's not too far out. Thank the Lord.
oOo Lex oOo
Holy Shit. Holy Shit. Holy Shit.
I have now officially proclaimed myself sick in the head and in need of serious mental rest.
I just wanted her to stop calling and leaving me messages. Just like you told her, Lex. There's nothing more to it. And there can never be anything more to it. NEVER.
