You're him?

N I N E

" I- well you see-" however your ringing phone interrupts your pathetic attempt at an excuse, you grab the phone and answer, "Yes?"

"Hey (yn), I just saw the news and oh my god did that really happen to you?! Are you alright? What was it like?! I can't believe you got to fly with superman, is he as wonderful as he seems in the newspapers?"

"Um, Sally now is really not the time, can I call you back later?"

"Oh please don't hang up on my account," superman insists with a warm grin, you aren't sure but you think you see a twinkle of mischief in his eyes.

"Who is that?", your friend's voice calls from the phone, "is there a man in your apartment?,
(yn) you haven't been keeping things from me have you?"

"No, no it's just a friend nothing important."

"Just a friend huh? where did you meet him? What's his name?"

"can I call you tomorrow?"
"Why are you avoiding me,
wait... Is he there now?! Is superman there?!"

"Um"

"OH MY GOD, what's he like? No ignore that, what are you doing talking to me? Go talk to him, you have to kiss him!"

"SALLY!" You exclaim, as your cheeks turn red, "I won't.. I could never."

"Come on, you've been in love with him since your first year of journalism, you're binder was literally plastered with pictures of him, even the guys called you 'Supe's girl'."

"SALLY," you warned through clenched teeth.

"SUPERMAN! can you hear me?!, would you PLEASE give my girl a kiss!", Sally screams into the phone.

"Ok I have to go bye," you hastily said before hanging up on your friend, you turned to see superman chuckling, he was trying to hide it though.

"One of my crazy friends," you offer trying to somewhat explain, "she called to see if I was alright, because apparently we made the news."

Superman took a few steps towards you and took your hands in his, "Supe's girl huh? I like that nickname."

"You heard that?" You curse under your breath as you turn bright red, "I'm so sorry, that was a long long time ago, I-I..."

"Oh," superman sounded defeated, "then you don't like me anymore?"
"No no it's not like that!"
You hastily gasp, "no I freaking love you!"

"You love me?" He smirks.

"Well, not love I mean, well.. Ugh if you would just understand what I'm trying to say is...thank you for saving my life, anyways I should get to work and--"

"You're taking a day off," superman orders.

"I should really get some writing done, perhaps there might be assignments that I could--"

" (yn), you are taking a day off, you need a break."

"I'm fine." You insist.

Superman laughs, "you're barely standing on your own feet, you're exhausted and still in shock, so I suggest you rest."
"I'm fine, really I am,"

Superman smirks, " no you're not, trust me."

"I'm good, you can go now."

"Really?"
"Yes."
"Really?"
"YES!"
you insist, suddenly superman reaches out for you, pulls you into him and gently places a kiss on your lips, you freeze in shock, he glances down at you seeing that you aren't about to swing at him so he deepens the kiss as your legs go out from beneath you.

"I told you, you're tired and need to rest," he smiles into the kiss.

"What? Ohohoo
no! that is cheating!" You exclaim
