break up challenge drabble

[livejournal.com profile] dammitcarl is trying to make me late with her unbreakup challenge. Bad Jess!

Now I have to, like, run. Dammit.

He was waiting in front of the building when Clark got out of his philosophy seminar.

Clark stopped in front of the Ferrari and scowled. "What are you doing here?"

"This is step two of my brilliant plan to win you back. Get in."

Clark stood there for another second before he climbed in.

"What was step one?" Clark said loudly, over the squeal of the tires as Lex drove them away. "Did it involve *not* sleeping with any more skanky girls behind my back?"

"Yes."

Clark was silent for a moment, then said, "So what's step three?"

Lex smiled.

*squeeb*

Bad Lex! Bad!

Methinks there will be lots and lots of I'm sorry blow jobs in Clark's future. Lucky, lucky man.

*snicker* And he'll get automatically win, like, every argument for the next however long. "Well, I'm not the one who..."

Thanks for comment, honey.

Mmm, classic Pearl-O; fab dialogue, college setting.

Yum.

Wooo!

(Dude, you realize I haven't actually written that many college stories, yes?)

Oh, Cheatin!Lex. Go git him, Clark.

Great one!

Yay! Thank you kindly, madam.

"So what's step three?"

That's what I'd like to know! Fabulous entry.

Heh. That would give away the mystery, wouldn't it?

Thank you very much.

ooh, erica knows my not-so-secret weakness. this is wondeful.

Pleasing Jess makes up for the almost-being-late. By far.

(Um. Which secret weakness would this be, again?)

You made me say "aw!" at a het ship.

For that you must die.

Wait, what? When did I do this?

"Did it involve *not* sleeping with any more skanky girls behind my back?"

Snerk. Give him hell, Clark.

Clark gets to have free reign on the bitchiness for quite a while now.

Thanks for commenting, dude.

how do you make 100 words do so much work? damn you! i mean damn you, but not like in the bad way. okay. being quiet now.

*snicker* Nah, I know well the friendly damning. Thanks, zahra.

[identity profile] barely-bean.livejournal.com 2003-03-06 11:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yay step 3!!! And if I were Lex, I'd definitely stick with step 1. Bad Lex!

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2003-03-06 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Step one is very much an important one, indeed.

Thanks for the comment, Caro.

Bad skanky girls!

*slaps their hands*

Uh...but understands completely.

Wow! This piece accomplishes tons in a very small space. I'm impressed.

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2003-03-06 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude, it's not the skanky girl's responsibility to keep Lex faithful. Keep the blame where it's due.

And thank you very much! I'm glad to hear you liked.

Wow! And you even got the reason for their break up in your 100 words too. This is great.

Love the three step plan idea.

Lex smiled.

And he says so much with just that smile!

Oddly, squibble makes me think of quibble and squabble. I'm like, "Arguing? What?"

But, yay! Mel approval! *dances*

lol Hey, we all want to know what step three is. Though we can probably guess... *mind runs back to the gutter*

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2003-03-06 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Step three, alas, did not fit within the 100 word limit. It is destined to be a mystery forever.

Would it be bad form to squee here? Even just a little, tiny, mini-squee?

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2003-03-06 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude, I'm pretty sure squees are always appropriate. I certainly wouldn't be offended.

Thanks for commenting!

I'm sorry I missed this the first time around -- it's got just the punch a drabble should have, where you get done and blink and say to yourself, wow how did she FIT all of that in 100 words?
