"You look beautiful" Bruce says to me trying to enlighten the mood. "Sure I do..." I say looking off into the distance. Im in a black dress, black high-top converse and straightened hair that is in a high pony. I'm trying to look decent. "Look who cleans up nice," Lex says as he walks in. He's in a blue/gray suit and his hair is kinda curly.

"Thanks" I say looking at Lex. He's hurt. I motion for him to come into the other room with me and he follows. "Are you holding up?" I ask. "I guess. I should be asking you this, not you asking me." He says putting a hand on my shoulder. "I'm fine. Just shocked" I lie. He stares at me and gives me the warmest smile he can. "The reception is about to start..." Bruce says peeking his head in through the door. We walk and sit down.

Lex walks up to the mic and starts to give a speech. He shouldn't, but he insist. "My father, uh, was a s-smart man that wasn't, uh, perfect..?" He says stuttering and nervously laughing. I don't think he can do this. He laughs a little more and I walk up to the mic. "What my brother is trying to say is that my father was smart. Sure, he was no where near perfect but he knew how to get things done. He ran a successful business for years and I, with the help of Lex, will take on LuthorCorp and help it become the best it can be" I say with a nervous smile. Tears slowly roll down my face. Lex is crying because he's in shock. Im crying because I'm scared. Scared of what will happen if anyone finds out.

"Lena, what if Clark killed him? He has every reason to!" Lex says writing his name down on paper. He's so determined. "Clark didn't do it" I say quietly. "Who did then" he says letting out a long breath. "I did" I say starting to cry. "Lena...no...you...didn't" He says starting to cry. Then gets mad. "Im sorry" I whisper. "SORRY? YOU KILLED DAD!" He yells. "Lex I can ex-" I try to say as he walks out to the door. Before he leaves he says "Lena you're insane". I feel the tears roll down my face. Sad tears.
