Lex was lucky he was so rich….he could afford a speeding ticket here and there on his way to Metropolis. It was worth it. He got Lana a certificate to any store she chose for a thousand dollars, and an expresso machine for the Talon. A brand-new laptop for Chloe, a set of cooking items for Ms. Kent, a new truck for Mr. Kent (he just hoped they accepted their gifts), a new convertible for Pete-Lex stopped his car in the middle of the road. Luckily, the only other person on it was a bicyclist. CLARK!!!!! He'd forgotten all about Clark. He couldn't get back to Metropolis in time to get Clark a really good present; like his parents would let him accept it anyway. Lex thought about it for a minute. Then he laughed.
"I know exactly what to get you, Clark!" he crowed, performing an illegal U-turn to get back to the mansion.
Sorry it's short. In case you're wondering why it's getting posted so fast, it's because I've had it in my Smallville stories notebook for a couple of years now. I can't wait to have it finished.
