It was a chilly night, and Lana was standing outside in the balcony of the Luthor Mansion. She looked upset, so Lex went to talk to her.
"Sneaking out, huh? Isn't this your shindig?" Lex said, interrupting the cold silence.
Lana replied, "Says so on all the invitations.
"Right. You're not hiding. You're getting some air... I spent 18 years of Luthor Christmas parties in the coatroom."
"Well, I'm still waiting for my reinforcements."
"I know Clark. He'll be here. If he can," he said.
Shaking her head, Lana said, "It's just a birthday."
Lex smiled at her a little, and then starts to head back inside. Lana sighed
"Wait!" she cried. Lex turned around. Lana smiled back.
"I believe you, but until my escort does show up, can you please accompany to my party? I know that you must be really busy.."
"Of course," Lex cut her off, "anything for the birthday girl."
With that, Lana took Lex's arm, and they both walked into the party. Hours and hours later, after about a billion dances, Lex and Lana stopped for a drink. Nell suddenly walked up to Lana.
"So here's my birthday girl!" she said, while hugging her. "I'm so sorry Lana, but I have to go to Metropolis tonight.
I'll be back tomorrow afternoon, alright?"
Lana looked back at her, showing her aunt her famous understanding face,
"Sure, we can always celebrate tomorrow."
Nell gave her a hug again and left for the door. Lana looked up at the clock, and noticed that it was getting late. People started to say their "good-byes" and "thank yous" and before she knew it, the mansion was once again empty.
"Well, I don't know about you, but I had a great time."
Lana turned around, surprised, and saw Lex. The music was still playing. Suddenly, the song changed, and "Heaven" was being played in the background.
"How bout one more dance?" Lex said, offering his hand. 'it won't be any different than any of the other dances we've done in the past few hours. It's just a dance' he thought.
Lana, without thinking, wrapped her arms around his neck. Lex was wrong. This time, Lana pulled her self a lot closer to his body. She closed her eyes, and laid her head on his shoulder.
Baby you're all that I want,
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe, We're in heaven.
"You know," Lana said, breaking the silence. "you were wrong. Clark never showed up." Still dancing, Lex said,
"Well, who said I wouldn't be?" Lana rolled her eyes.
"Well, thanks anyways; for being my 'escort'. I've already gone through 2 guys who couldn't come."
Lex smiled. Damn, she was dancing so close to him. The song finally ended, and Lana spotted the mess that was left from the party that just ended.
"Here, I'll help clean up," she said while picking up an empty cup.
"No. It's fine. I'll have someone clean it up in the morning," Lex insisted.
"Lex, you did say, 'anything for the birthday girl'. Plus, I want to, and I don't have to be home anytime soon. Nell's out, so it won't matter what time I get home."
With that, she just started to clean up, ignoring Lex's comments. He finally gave up, and decided to join her. While Lana was putting an empty platter in the kitchen, she looked at the hallway. She gently placed the platter on the counter, and started to walk quietly down the hall. She had already been in the mansion, but she hadn't seen all of it. Reaching the first door to the right, she slowly opened it. Lana's eyes widened. Inside was a whole theater, just like the ones she'd seen on MTV's Cribs.
"So, I see that you've found the 'entertainment' room."
Lana jumped, she didn't think that Lex would find her.
"Yeah, it's..wow."
"We're just about done cleaning up, so how about a movie?" Lex offered
Lana thought for a second, until she remembered that Nell wasn't going to be home anyway. Hell, it was her BIRTHDAY.
"That would be nice," she answered, with a smile.
