A Heart Of Kryptonite

Good Morning

One thing everyone in this entire world can agree on is that there is nothing worse than hearing your alarm going off at six in the morning, signalling you have to go to school or work.

You quickly turned off the obnoxious alarm and lied in bed for a few minutes. Fortunately for you, you worked at Wayne Industries with a quite high up position. You were Bruce Wayne's personal assistant and it was a job in which you would wake up in the morning and grin because of how lucky you were.

Slipping out of bed, the cold air nipped at your skin so you put on a big fluffy cardigan to shield you from the harsh temperatures. You walked downstairs on your tiptoes to avoid the cold wooden floor and in the kitchen you poured yourself some cereal to eat whilst you watched T.V. before you set out for work.

Surfing through the channels, you saw a rival company making a speech; Lexcorps. You'd never personally met Lex Luthor but from what you heard about him he was... interesting.

"Thanks to Lexcorp's substantial contribution, Metropolis is now open for business again," he received a small cheer from the crowd, "we can't wait to welcome you."

You snorted. What kind of a name is Lexcorp anyway? Not to mention the ridiculous colour scheme orange, white and grey. The probability that he didn't know was actually going on within his company was high, the guy is probably one of those Superman lovers you thought.

"I didn't think you'd be awake so early," your mum walked into the room putting on her earrings.

"If you're not early, you're just late. Morning to you too mum. Or should I call you Senator Finch now?" You giggled. Your mum had just been given the role as Senator and you were both immensely proud.

"You will call me mum, cheeky. What're you watching?" Both of your gazes turned to Lex who was on screen. "Weird. I've got a meeting with him today, something about protection for our country."

"Remember Wayne Industries is the best company around here," you took a spoonful of your cereal and smiled, a dribble of milk dripping down your lip.

"Not when his assistant can't even wipe her own mouth. I've got to go, have a good day (Y/N)."

She kissed your hair and left the house to work through court cases and a meeting with Lex. You weren't going to lie, it would be pretty cool to meet him. You were both about the same age and shared ambitious goals. Mercy was his assistant, she was always by his side and you weren't exactly jealous but you did get bitter when you saw her. Mainly because you barley ever saw Bruce Wayne. He was always off at his manner doing who knows what? You practically ran the company yourself.

You sighed and looked at your watch. Time to get dressed and head to work.
