Luthors Legacy

I'm sorry...

I sit at my desk in L-corp reading the news. Wow, Lex hasn't been in the news in 3 weeks. Record. My receptionist Jess beeps in and says "Ms. Luthor, Mr. Wayne is here. He's coming up now". Even though he's on my access list, I asked her to warn me first. I take a deep breath and fix my hair. He opens the door and says "Look who's not dead". "Hey, sorry I've just been under a lot of stress with work" I say as I finish up an email I was trying to send earlier. I see his hand fly down and shut my computer. He pulls me up and holds my hands in his. "Lex told me. He was crying. He really cares about you Lena. I do too. You can't worry people like that." Bruce says quietly and softly. "I-I'm sorry. I just felt like I was, just hurting you by not accepting you. I shouldn't have said what I did, I was selfish and stupid and acted like a child." I say releasing my hand and rubbing his cheek. He grabs my hand after I'm done again and smiles. "I promise, I will tell you, when I can get myself to do it. It could endanger you, I don't want you to get hurt. It would kill me" He whispers. I start to cry a little and he wipes the tear from my eye. "Lena...I've loved the time we have spent together. I, I used to think that I was alone and I kept a wall up around me because of that. You came in and broke a hole in that wall. I've known you are special since the first day I met you. But what I didn't realize, is that I love you Lena" Bruce says smiling. I smile back and whisper "I love you too". He pulls me in and we kiss. I might get my true love now, if I don't screw this one up.
