"Some snobby rich guy I bet" Lois scoffed, folding her arms. Clark and Lois were waiting outside Bruce Wayne's private jet, along with plenty of other eager reporters.

"Taking his sweet time, eh Clark?" Lois tapped her foot and her frown grew deeper on her face.

"You don't seem too happy Lois" Clark hoped this wouldn't set her off. Lois has a habit of taking things the wrong way.

"What? oh no, sorry Clark. It's just I feel we should be doing something better!"

"How so?"

"Well I mean...Superman's probably saving Metropolis from some crazy alien attack but I'm stuck here reporting about a rich guy I couldn't care less about!" she had started to draw attention to herself.

"Uh, I guess. But the board wanted us to interview Mr Wayne about his upcoming partnership" Clark tried to change the topic of aliens and Superman.

Lois opened her mouth to reply butt he door to the jet opened and a heavily armed security guard stepped out, followed by the one and only Bruce Wayne. He walked down the steps with confidence and a sort of arrogance.

"He's certainly attractive" Clark whispered to Lois.

"Clark, just the other week I asked if you were gay and you said 'no'. I'm having second guesses now" Lois raised an eyebrow with a look of mischief spread across her face.

"Well I mean-"

"Ah, Ms Lane and Mr Kent. I was told you were interviewing me?" Clark breathed a sigh of relief, saved by Mr Wayne.

"Yes! we'd like to talk to you about your upcoming partnership with Lex Corp." Lois fiddled through her notes and pulled out a pen.

"Lex corp Why would anyone partnership with Lex Luthor? Do people not realise he's trying to kill me?" Clark thought to himself as Lois babbled on.

" I would be more than happy to take in some questions, but I'm afraid I have you double-booked...Perhaps you two would join me for dinner at the 'Golden seahorse"?  At 7:00? If you are free, of course." Bruce's eyes looked eager, had he planned this? Clark was suspicious of Mr Wayne, he seemed nice yes, but Clark had this strange feeling in his gut when he was around the man.

"Oh well I'm free, How about you Clark?" Lois and Bruce both turned expectedly to Clark, he was lost in his thoughts and awkwardly jumbled out;

"Oh eh-eh- Yes"

"Very well then, I'm looking forward to your company. Now excuse me, I've got some business to attend to" Bruce gently pulled Lois's hand to his lips and gave her fore-hand a polite kiss. He turned to Clark and shook his hand. Bruce's eyes were damp, full of secrets...And Clark was determined to find out those secrets.

Once Bruce had farewelled them both he strode off with his security guards close behind and a heard of reporters following.

"Wow...He sure was something" Lois looked literally swooned.

"What happened to Snobby-rich-dickhead?" Clark smirked at Lois's easy persuaded opinion.

"Shut up Clark."
