Fuck!

He just kept being polite, well mannered, sweet and nice to her and it was just making her want him to go far away as possible and the sooner the better.

She was pathetic and this needed to end.

It was not fair that they had to go by alphabetical order because she would probably be working right now instead of entertaining the Boy Billionaire, who seemed very amused by her. And it was looking like he had no idea who and what she was really was and that she was looking really good for her. But only if she could have stopped her rambling that seemed to get stronger the more time she spent with him.

He seemed really unaffected by the steaming hot water as if it was something which made her wonder what kind of guy was he because it was terrifying. And the rambling apology did not help anyone and just made things far more awkward for her indeed.

And when she was left with Oliver Queen when Batman went for his Interview she was stuck with him having another conversation with him when started to apologize to him again. He just found it hilarious and " adorable " was the word he had used which made her blush and go on yet another psychotic rant.

And in this psychotic rant of hers that seemed to go on for some quite time that the Interview that was going on in the next room seemed to be over and another psychotic rant started over again all about her clumsiness with two Boy Billionaires talking to her this time and laughing cheerfully like they had not laughed like that in years.


" I will put your name on the guest list plus one " said Oliver winking at her.

He had invited her to a party that she would never in her life thought that she would ever be invited or would have ever thought or dreamed to attend. She was invited to the Night Club called Verdant for his younger sister's Birthday Party and even when she tried saying " No " he somehow used his charm to get her to agree to go, as long as her parents agreed and she knew that was not going to happen. And right now, she was loving how strict and over protective her parents really were.

She almost felt sorry for herself almost because in the end it seemed like the Reporter who was in charge was impressed by her skills of getting Billionaires to talk and having them tell her their own childhood misdeeds that she was given a short article to write about the party.

So, she was stuck going to a birthday party that she did not want to go to in the first place because she was not really a " Party " kind of person and she knew that would be going on at the party because everyone knew. There would be illegal drinking and illegal substances going on at that kind of party because it was for the rich and they would get away with it.


Plus, she was told multiple stories by Chloe about The Queen family and how she thought there was a conspiracy behind the two male Queen family members deaths that they had been murdered, another one of her conspiracy theories and sometimes she swears that Chloe starts some of these herself. And when Chloe found out he was alive she had gone into complete melt down she was found out Oliver Queen alive. And that he had been stranded on an Island and living there for the past five all because of a shipwreck and tell the truth she was rather shocked herself. In her life, she was not shocked by much the day that she found that aliens exist and that she was one of them she was not shocked by a lot but by this she was shocked.

But it was not as shocking as meeting him and seeing him face to face because the pictures did not do him justice like most pictures did with people. Why was it lately that she was finding very hot guy really hot and I meaning smoking because guys were never a thing that usually got her distracted but lately that was all that was on her minds was boys. She had become boy mad and it was not helping her one bit to stay conspicuous with her powers and right now she could clearly see that.

Plus, a certain Bat was invited to it and she swore it was he somehow got himself invited.


And finally, when he was called she had somehow accidentally managed to get him to slip his coffee around himself when she stood up just before him because she had heard the other Boy Billionaire laughing and leaving while he continued to flirt.


Right now, she was on the coffee run for the entire floor of caffeine deprived from lacking of any caffeine or even caffeine fumes in the air that had seemed to disappear into thin air.

The coffee that she had heated up so drank in almost a stampede as soon as she had left the room with her cup of coffee and she had to use just a little bit of her speed so that she or rather the people would not be harmed.

Those tired people that were slowly typing were type speeding within seconds of drinking that coffee and it was almost as if they were in sync and they were all definitely reminding her of Chloe, who she was convince belonged here more than ever.

Over fifty coffees that she was carrying and she dare so that if she was not a super powered being them this would be almost impossible for one person to carry all of this. All in one go because a normal person would fear of dropping all the hot liquid on them and burning themselves alive that would be a cruel death indeed or horrible way to be scarred for life.

And this town was mad with coffee mad all of them, like something that she had never seen before. Busy town and busy people all dressed in expensive well tailored suits with brief cases and bags to match, even their dogs were matching as well to what their owners were wearing. A lot of them on their phone chatting away as if no one was around as they conducted their business and some even reading news papers astounding actual papers but most read electronically. All of these people she could see all had a cup of coffee in their hands straight up from the many Starbucks that she could see surrounding the areas as if they were about to be an alien invasion.

That would be one hell of a way to invade the world and people by targeting the one thing that they most share in common by this she means if you ever want to take over the world the wealthy is the best place to start.

Or maybe it was because she sat up half the night watching The body snatchers and other films lie that as it was her way of missing Pete while he was in Metropolis with his brother's for the summer.


She missed Pete and she owed him a phone call because she missed his and had forgotten to phone back. Well his phone call was the one that woke her up that morning and was the whole reason she was not late on her first day and she had to find a way to thank him for it. Pete probably knew that she would sleep in and that was the reason he had called her since it did only ring the once and there was no voicemail.

She was so busy with her thoughts and carrying the coffee that she did not notice the limo stop and was approaching her and the window go slowly down.


" Clark, do you need some assistance? " said Bruce.

She knew that voice instantly.

" Fudge " she said to herself.

And then took a deep breath in and continued to walk pretending she did not hear a thing and she could always use that as an excuse because she was listening to her head phones and a normal person could not hear over them.

So for some reason she started to whistle and started to walk so much faster she started to run.


Bruce sat in the back of the limo being ignored while he was on the lookout for his target when he noticed familiar face.

" I better go and see if she needs some help, knowing that girl she will pour that coffee over on some innocent bystander and herself at the same time " said Bruce.

The limo was already stopped so it would easier if he offered her a lift.

" If I do Pardon me Sir ? " said Alfred.

He closed the door behind him.

" Why are we stalking a High School Senior that seems like good person and has nothing to do with the current task at hand ? " said Alfred.

" I am not staking Clark Kent this just happens to be a coincidence, that is all " said Bruce.

Alfred did not seem to believe him.


" You had me run a background check on the girl and you even read every single article that she has written. You even read some of her school work and if I do say so she is not a bad writer but Sir she is still in High School and that would not go down well with her the media or the girl's parents. And from what I have heard about her Father if you even stepped on the Farm grounds he would be more than likely to shoot you " said Alfred.

He just shook his head and smiled.

" Alfred, I am not interested in dating someone right now my life is far too busy for that and I would appreciate it if you would stop trying to look for a future wife for me and stop with the hinting. Clark is a nice and interesting girl but that is all she is a girl that is still a child who needs to grow up and I would not want to get in her way " said Bruce.

So, what if he had a background check done on the girl.

There was something about the girl that seemed off and he needed to make sure that she was who she said she was and that it was not all some act and charade, all conducted up as a distraction.

She was who she said she was as far as a routine back check could seeing how she had no criminal record and the only thing that was off that she was late for school for most of the time. So she was a nice girl that he had happened to meet again. It just seemed unfortunate for her and not for him because at least she had put a smile on his face and because of her he was able to get an invite to the party that he needed to attend. So, he would have an excuse to be in town and he would not look suspicious at all and maybe he could use her to his advantage again. And he had more than made it up for it by getting an article for her to write and he would do it again because he did not like using people at all.

He could swear that if she was not listening to her music that she would have heard him and there was still the possibility that she had heard him. He was either being paranoid again or he was correct and she was avoiding him it had to be the latter because he was hardly one to admit when he was wrong.

He knew that Interns either did not get paid or did not get paid very much because all they got paid in was in experience and a recommendation.


" Do we continue to stalk the young Lass so that you will miss that meeting of yours that you are supposed to attend and is the reason that Bruce Wayne is in Star City. And not to stalk some young teenage who wants to pick her up in a limo and offer her some candy " said Alfred.

He took one more look at the girl that trying her best to balance all of the cups while still trying to open that door at the same time without burning herself alive.

" First I have something that I have to drop off " said Bruce as he patted the coffee machine right beside him.


Listening to their conversation as she did her best not to look back and also open the door at the same time while also trying to fix the door having accidentally breaking it off the hinges. So right now, she was holding coffee and a broken door while using her heat vision at the same time with the coffee boiling and the door being fixed. While in the mean time hoping that no one was seeing what she was currently doing knowing that she was being watched while she was listening in on the conversation at the same time.

Right now, she was on the English guy's side for him to leave her heel alone because this was definitely called stalking now and that was the word that they used and she did not saw it out loud.

Fuck

She could hear the door shutting but no footsteps coming her way but the heart beat she could hear coming and it was starting to remind her of the film Jaws and the theme tune. Or rather that was her heart racing because his was steady and calm like a shark out for blood and ready for a frenzy attack.

Oh come on !

How could she be terrified of someone that she could so easily snap their neck so fast that they would never know that it happened. And so fast that no one would have seen it happen or her doing it not knowing how it ever truly happened. But that was something that she would and could never do under any circumstances taking a life like that would leave a dark mark on anyone's soul and she did not want that for anyone.

Or if she did like someone she was scared that she could end up dead or a Vigilante or even worse because thinking that dark down the road she was terrified and did not want to go into those kinds of thoughts.

He was coming.

She gulped and quickly pressed the button hoping that the elevator doors would close before she could see him and before he could even approach the lobby.


He opened the door and instantly noticed that it was no longer unbalanced by the weight being off the first time he had opened it and it was now perfectly balanced.

Opening and swinging it again thinking that someone must have fixed it in the time that he had gone and he could even see the van parked right outside.

But his paranoia had gotten to him and he had just missed the door lift close on him before he could get to them.


Meanwhile two work men that were sent to fix the door were scratching their heads confused after getting the tools needed and coming back to see that the door had been magically fixed.

Well their job was finished so they could go for an early lunch and still get paid for the job then go for their next job hoping that one would be magically done as well and just maybe they could get home early for once. Right now, they were on schedule something that they had never been before and was a good day for them after all.


She got out of the lift and barely muttered the word " coffee " before she was swarmed as if she was a flower surrounded by busy bees.

And now she could actually get back to her actual job and do some photocopying and typing some of the things that needed to be retyped that was written by hand.

She saw the elevator doors open and she ducked down hiding behind her screen pretending that she was not there and that he was not there at all.

And then she looked at the mountain of the things that she had to retyped and everything that she had to photocopy and she was mortified because right now she had so much that she had to catch up on.

This was a nightmare.

Hey but at least it would keep her away far away as possible from Batman because she had a busy work schedule to be getting on with right that would keep her busy until the night. Tragically more like when he would appear and she almost started to sulk.

She waved nervously at the guy she had split coffee over and he was nervously waving back through his pile of stuff that he needed to do as well.

She needed to get back to work because this was still her first day and so far, if it was like this every day she would never last.
