"Clark, what a surprise, I haven't seen you in a while," Lex rose from taking a shot on the pool table. Clark walked in the office led by one of the servants of the house.
"Hey Lex, sorry I haven't been by much," he took his bag off, and sat it beside one of the antique chairs.
"That's okay, just let me know who's been taking my place," Lex joked before taking another shot, sinking the yellow ball in a corner pocket. Clark shot him an, "I get it," look.
"Is everything okay? How's your mom dad?" He put the pool cue down on the table after sinking the 8 ball in the side pocket.
"They're okay, same amount of worrying and love I guess."
"Sounds about right, how about yourself? Anything new going on with you?"
"Well," Clark paused in thought, "it's not going so well, for me anyway," he sat down with Lex in the old, leather chairs.
"What, is she giving you a hard time, not sharing with you?"
Clark smiled, then paused, "Hey, how did you know that?"
"Lex, I've finished typing up those reports you wanted…" she stopped, looking at Clark. Lex got up and met her.
"Clark, this is Dana Wells, Dana, Clark Kent, but I guess you've already met." He watched them as they stared silently at each other. "Dana's staying here at the house until she finds a roommate she can stay with here in Smallville." Lex smiled at himself as the two kept silent.
"Uh, it'll only take another hour to finish all the other reports you wanted as well," she faced Lex.
"Thanks Dana, I appreciate it," he took the folder she handed him.
"I've got to go," she pointed over her shoulder towards the door, looking back at Clark.
"Yeah… sure," he nodded, not knowing what else to say, "I'll see you tomorrow then," he waved as she walked towards the door. When she was gone, he spun around surprised at Lex.
"Was that your new student?" He was already sitting behind his desk.
"Yeah," he was taken aback. "Did she say anything to you?"
"About you? No, just that she wished you would stop following her around."
"She told you that?" Clark stood shocked.
"Sit down Clark, relax, she didn't say that," Lex smiled and waved him down.
"Did she say anything?" Clark asked hopefully.
"When I asked her about how school was going, she told me that she had met you and Pete." Clark still sat dazed at the fact that she was staying with his best friend.
"She told me what was going on with her, and that you wanted to know something that she didn't want to tell you." Lex clasped his hands, leaning forward on the desk.
"She told you?" He was even more shocked. Why would she tell Lex and not him?
"Clark, you have to give her sometime, you can't just expect her to spill her whole life story to you. The only way you would be able to get anything out of her right now is if you could read her mind," Lex chuckled as he leaned back in his char. Clark's head shot up.
