Man of Steel: Loving Mia Jones

Lunchtime

3rd POV

Bruce drove back to his hotel that he had made reservations with in complete silence. His thoughts kept going back to Mia being in a relationship with someone else. What bothered him about it she appeared to be happy.

"So, what kind of business are you here for?"

Bruce the question Clark asked came back to his mind. He was still investigating the weapon that is rumored to be very powerful. Maybe even powerful to take down a Kryptonian. He was in Metropolis hoping to get an idea where it can be found and he had an idea who maybe tied into this.

Bruce's Flashback:

"I hope the next generation of Wayne's do not inherit a wine cellar." Alfred said as he looked at the alcohol bottles in Bruce's room.

Bruce rolled his eyes as he handed Alfred a cup of tea. "This is every call made from the Russian's phone." Bruce said referring back to the man he met at a underground fighting club. He believed this man had some ties to the weapon. "Two mention's of business with the white Portuguese. And it is continuously transmitting data black-out data to the personal residence of....Alexander Luthor or what most people call him Lex Luthor." Bruce said as he went through his laptop.

Alfred out down his tea and said, "So you think Lex Luthor is the White Portuguese? I can't see he needs the income from imported weapons."

"Regardless I'm going to need to put a leash in his house and I'm going to need a suit." Bruce said. 

"The batman interrogated six people and came away with nothing." Alfred said as he put down the paper he was looking at. "It was Bruce Wayne that got the information."

"Well, Bruce Wayne can't break into Luthor's house."

"Bruce Wayne wouldn't have to..." Alfred said handing Bruce a piece of paper. "He's been invited."

Bruce took the invitation and saw that it was about three days away. 

"This maybe a good chance to get in touch with your 'crush' Mia." Alfred said taking a sip of his tea. "You keep calling her almost every other day and you do bring her up a lot."

Bruce looked at Alfred giving him a confused look. "I don't like Mia that way she's jus-"

Alfred scoffed. "Please spare me of that 'she's just a friend' crap. I know when someone likes someone." He then took another sip of his tea.

Bruce shook his head in disagreement. "Your wrong Alfred." He said starting to walk away.

"At least take her as your date. If she's not busy reporting it." Alfred called after him. 

End of Flashback

Bruce sighed as he ran a hand through his hair. "This is going to be a long trip." He mumbled to himself.

Mia walked into the Daily Planet with her usually hot chocolate with whip cream in hand as she made her way to her desk. When she came up to her desk she saw that there was already a cup of hot chocolate and a cinnamon roll. Mia looked to see there was also a note that said: I'm Sorry.

Mia smiled as she looked at it. "I'm sorry Mia." Mia turned to see Clark standing behind her. "I should have never treated your guest like that." He said as he walked up to her. Mia wasn't expecting to see Clark this early in the morning. She usually beat him to work most times since he likes to sleep in.
