Girls and guy weekend
Dad and I are still fighting so I'm over at the apartment above the Talon for the weekend. Chloe and I are spending some time together. We worked on an article together for the Torch and came back here yesterday to crash. We've been watching movies and eating popcorn since. It's been nice to get away from my parents. It's given me time to think about a lot of things.
I wish Dad would just accept that Lex is who I want to be with and that Lex is who I love. I know now that it's possible he never will. Chloe has been trying to get me to talk about what's bugging me. She's the most amazing friend ever. She fell asleep on my shoulder late last night while we were watching a movie and she looked so cute. She even cuddled against me. It was adorable. I told her all about it in the morning. She pretended to be mortified. Then she joked that she's going straight just for me.
She and Lana are still broken up. They decided it was best for them to stay apart for the time being. I almost told Chloe about my status with Lex, but I couldn't. It's not information I can just spill to anyone no matter how much I trust that person.
My mom called and asked me to come home today, but I told her I needed more time. I joked that it's practice for when I go away to college and I'm on my own. She flipped and started yelling excitedly about how she's so happy I've finally decided to go to college. I didn't have the heart to tell her that I hadn't really made my mind up just yet, but then Chloe and I talked about it today and she's right. They're all right. I really do want to go and I know what I want to do. I want to write for sure.
This whole weekend was perfect until Lois showed up. She's here now with us. She wedged her huge ass between Chloe and me on the sofa early this morning. She didn't even have the decency to bring coffee and donuts. That's where they are now. Chloe and Lois went downstairs to get some snacks and stuff. It's almost like a girl's night out, only with two girls and one guy.

A hard man is easy to find
Yesterday, after hanging out with Chloe and Lois, I decided I'd had enough. Lois wasn't being as big a pain in the ass as she usually is, but she wasn't being all that cheery either, so I left her and Chloe to their own devices and went over to the mansion in the late afternoon. I had a great time being with my best friend, but believe me, you can only take so much of Lois before you start to want either to throw her out the nearest window or tease her relentlessly. I chose the third option -- to run away. I admit it. I am a coward. She scares me sometimes.
I'm so happy that I went to see Lex last night. We had dinner and laughed about all kinds of things. It felt so natural and I wanted it to be that way every day. I wish we could move in together. I mentioned it to Lex and he joked that we could run away to Metropolis. He said we could live in his high-rise penthouse. It wouldn't even be in sin.
After dinner we retired to his private rooms. We sat in front of the fireplace and he had an after-dinner drink. He even offered one to me but the alcohol would only be wasted. It didn't matter because I could taste the liquor on his warm lips when he kissed me. I was so horny, I thought I was going to tear his clothes off right then and there, but I managed to hold back enough. I wanted to savor the foreplay. Lex looked particularly hot last night, not that he doesn't always look hot. He pushed me to the floor and held me down. I tore his shirt off and before we knew it, we were both almost completely naked. He kissed his way down my bare chest. It drove me wild. Then he straddled me and rode me until I thought I would explode. It was so hot. I wanted to do it again, so we moved to the bed and I took him again. I love how Lex drives me so insanely wild when it comes to sex.
I stayed for a long time after. We sort of talked about my going to school, but unfortunately it had to end, and way too soon for my tastes. I went home satiated and content.
Today nothing has changed. Dad is still being a jerk and I refuse to speak to him. Mom and I are going to talk about my higher education and where I plan to go. When I told her Lex was going to pay for everything, I could tell my dad wanted to say something, but he saved it until I was out the door. I don't care. At this point, I'm not willing to budge on this one issue. I'll show him that I inherited the Kent stubbornness.

Busy month
It's been a busy few weeks. I've filled out a few college applications and sent those out. Chloe and I did them together. We're applying to the same schools. I decided to wait on what major I'm going to study. Chloe knows what she wants though she told me she's not as gung-ho about college as I am. She's really hoping to get on at the Daily Planet again. She talked all night about it a few days ago when we were studying for a major exam.
Needless to say, my parents are happy I've applied. My Dad and I never really made up from that argument we had. We just sort of started talking to each other again as if nothing had happened. He hasn't badmouthed Lex since and he knows what I'll say if he does. I let him know that I will not take that from him.
I have an exam to study for, and then I have to finish some chores. Lex has been busy with business stuff. We talked yesterday, but I had too much to do to go over and see him. Now I had better get to work.

How to get into the college of your choice
I have to think of a way to thank Lex. He's so awesome. I dragged my heels on sending my applications in to colleges. That was totally my fault because I was unsure of what courses to apply for let alone where to apply, but I spoke to Lex and he said he'd take care of everything. I already got a call this morning from one of the colleges. The dean called me. He said my credentials and my transcripts looked very impressive and we set up a meeting for next week. I'm going shopping with Mom this afternoon for some nice clothes. I want to make the best impression.
I was so unsure before but after that call, I have to admit: I'm kind of excited. I have to write an essay on my future goals, but first I have an article to write for the Torch. Chloe already cracked her whip at me. I'm glad to see her all excited.

I went to my meeting.
The meeting went really well. I went over to the mansion a few days ago to ask Lex's opinion on how I should dress. He said business casual would probably be the best way to dress for a meeting like this, so I went with what he said. I wore a light blue dress shirt with no tie and black dress pants. I even got a new pair of casual dress shoes. It took me almost the whole week to find a place that sold a size 14 shoe. Most of the places I went to were sold out.
I think it turned out to be a good choice. I felt like I was articulate and I'm positive I impressed the Dean. I managed not to make a total fool out of myself. He asked me if I have any ideas at all about what I would like to study. I finally said it out loud. I told him I really like writing and that I'd like to do something in media studies. I have to start with a general studies course and move from there, but he told me that I have the option of changing my major halfway through my first year. Now I just have to wait to find out if I got accepted. I'm really excited. I called Lex right before and right after the meeting. We've both been so busy lately.
I can't wait for high school to end. I can really start to enjoy the whole idea of moving on to bigger and brighter things. I saw that campus and all I could think about was how different my life will be next September. I could be walking that campus, going to classes, learning new things and meeting all kinds of interesting new people.
My parents were really exited. When I got home from the meeting, Mom made me tell her every single detail. Actually, I gladly told her every single detail. She was thrilled to listen.
Campus tour coming soon.
