"Um... Chloe and I are busy." Eric stated.
"Did you tell her it was Lex?"
"You're name is Lex? Hm. I don't believe she's ever mentioned you. which is weird because I know everything about Chloe since she *is* my closest friend."
"Oh really? Who might you be?"
"Eric Chase. Maybe she's mentioned me? I'm about six foot with green eyes, blonde hair and a pretty nice build if I do say so myself. Did I mention that Chloe and I were close?"
"Well Mr. Chase as much as I'm enjoying this conversation, I'd much rather be talking to Chloe."
"Oh wouldn't we all? I mean who wouldn't want to talk to a fox like her?"
sound of gritting teeth
"Okay- sheesh, don't get your panties in a twist. Gimme a second- she's in the shower, I'll go in and see if she's done." he said, running to the kitchen and turning on the taps so they made a wooshing sound into the phone.
"Wait! Don't go into-"
"Chloekins! Lex Luthor is- oh my goodness Chloe, shame on you... go put some clothes on! Hello Lex? She can't talk right now because she'd very wet and naked. I'll tell her you called. Bye!"
"Wait! Don't-"

Eric grinned as he returned to the lounge. Mission accomplished.
"Who was at the door Chlo?" he asked returning to the lounge at the same time as she did.
"Clark and Lana- I think they wanted some sort of reconciliation before we all headed for Met U." she said distastefully.
"What kind of reconciliation?"
"They said they were willing to forgive me for standing in the way of their love and for being an all round bitch this past year. It was my final chance to be accepted into the Lana-clone and Clark ass-kissing associations."
"...and what did you say?"
"I told them not to let the door hit them on the way out. Then I accidentally let Frodo outside." Chloe mentioned, looking out the window.
"He bit Clark on the butt but then decided to go for Lana instead- I think he's still chasing her around the yard."
"And here I thought the high-pitched screaming was all in my head." Eric stated, picking up his jacket.
"You ready to leave?" he asked.
"Uh huh. I'm not going to miss this place," she stated, picking up a few boxes and going to load the car.
"When do you start classes?"
"In a couple of days... I have my interview for that working internship at the Daily Planet tomorrow morning. How about your interview?"
"I'm probably not going to get it anyway. there are tons of better photographers that are trying to get those junior positions."
"Give me a break- you're the best in your generation, they'll be lucky to have you. Remember when you took that photo of a worm in the mud and it turned out looking like a rainbow emerging from a waterfall?"
"Yes. but that was accidental. I guess we're both going to have to do our best at those interviews Chloe. It could be fun working together. Imagine all the hot male reporters we'll get to hit on."
"You can have them all. I'm going there for one reason and that's to be the best damn reporter there is and nothing's going to stand in my way."
"Wow... go Chloe! You have so much inspiration- why weren't you my football coach? Maybe then I wouldn't have quit."
"You didn't quit you were kicked off the team for inappropriate touching."
"Ah yes. those wonderfully tight pants.Speaking of tight pants Lex Luthor called."
"WHAT!? What did he say!?"
"I thought you didn't care about him?"
"Eric..." the girl warned with a dangerous tone.
"Okay... he wanted to talk about something."
"Did he leave a number?"
"You spent the afternoon in car with the man and you didn't get his number!"
"We were preoccupied."
"I'm sure you were..."
"Shut up and get in the car."
