The next night Pacifica readied for her dinner date with Lex. "I have a date already, not bad" she thought to herself. Lex thought about picking her up in the limo, but didn't want to scare her off or even worse, give her the wrong reasons as to be with him, so he picked her up in the Porsche and he was right on time. She thought nothing of the Porsche, sure it was a nice ride, but back home attending so many car shows and events, the Porsche didn't almost measure up. They arrived at a semi fancy restaurant, she was glad that she dressed appropriately, coz she loved her jeans and Tee. They talked about so many different things and Lex could tell that she was not one of those that traveled in the same league he did, but still there was so much life and energy that poured out of her that he was drawn to it, she wasn't fake, called it like it was and well normal. She wasn't too surprised that he was a bit stiff, sure he smirked but never really laughed and she knew she was quite funny, this guy was sounding more and more not for her, he was more of a business man and she knew business men don't live life, they live work and that's what he did he worked at a desk most of the time. Boy she really had no clue who Lex Luthor is. There was things Lex wasn't telling her, about himself, he wanted to know about her first, see what he could work with. She was quick to see the "game" he was play, but had no problem with what he was doing, plus she had her own secrets that she was unwilling to tell, not like they were really juicy, but just private ones. Plus everyone has a dark side to them and they don't want anyone to know so they don't use it against them at a later time. Lex was more then satisfied with her responses to his questions and comments, but of course still trusted no one. They both were surprised that they were enjoying each others company, they kept each other on their toes, they were having fun. When dinner was finished she wanted to go dancing , he wanted something like a bar, one thing that they had in common, they both were very stubborn, they wanted what they wanted, and it took them a long time to come to a compromise. Finally agreed on a Martini Bar, she got her music, and he got to sit at a bar type place. Martinis are Pacifica's weakness, she loves them but it doesn't take much to get her drunk off them, so she watched herself with him now, for now if too much alcohol was in her system she may do something she might regret or not. It made her feel a bit better that he had one drink with her, but she didn't know how well he could handle his alcohol, plus he was driving she didn't want them to get into an accident, but nothing happened, he was fine and she only had the one. Pacifica thought that she'd better end the night it was already getting close to 1am, she had no problem staying up late, she was some what was an insomniac, but she had to look for a place to live, she couldn't live at that motel much longer.

The following morning she got up a bit later then she wanted too, but she was up all night thinking about Lex and their evening together, she showered, dressed and off she went. This time she went to the Talon and grabbed herself some coffee and a muffin. She ran into Lana, who had the Saturday morning shift they exchanged a few cheerful morning words as Chloe walked in needing her morning fix, she was running late as well which didn't help, it seemed it was just that type of morning. Lana introduced Chloe and Pacifica, they got a long fine, both weren't too good with getting up early. The Talon wasn't so busy now, so the three girls talked. Clark walked in and joined the girls, he was meeting Chloe there so they could go to the Torch together, some big school story had to be done for Monday morning and he agreed to help her, considering how he always ran out on her and a deadline, he was trying to make some parts up to her. Clark quietly nodded Pacifica away as Chloe and Lana were deep into conversation, he just wanted to give her heads up and let her know that Lex wasn't all that bad, but his father was, and that she should be careful around Lionel if they ever meet and maybe an eye on Lex himself wouldn't hurt. Clark was trying to cover both their tails. Pacifica questioned why he would be talking about his friend in this manner, Clark told her it was because she's been so nice and understanding towards him and his situation and that it was a friend giving a friend advice, and to show Pacifica in good faith that he does trust her, he would like to take her on a tour of Smallville tomorrow. One of Clark's small town gestures. She was more then happy for the tour, it might aid in her finding somewhere to live. Clark and Chloe soon left to go to work at school. Lex walked in, he was there to pick up some paper work/ invoices, she didn't think she'd see him so soon, was this guy, like everywhere. Lana excused herself to go get the paper work. Pacifica once again thanked Lex for the dinner and drink, and that she one day would like to repay him and take him out, Lex offered tomorrow. Pacifica had to decline, and told that Clark was giving her a tour of Smallville and that it may help aid in her rent/house search.
