"The Needs Of The Few..."
by M.
----------

Lois Lane smokes, Chloe Sullivan hates cigarettes.

Lois Lane refuses to drink anything but bourbon, Chloe Sullivan has never tried it.

Lois Lane has been, quite literally, fucked senseless by Lex Luthor and more than once, Chloe Sullivan has only fantasized about such things.

Lois Lane can easily run down a street in cherry red stilettos, Chloe Sullivan would break her neck if she so much as tried to walk in them.

Lois Lane is the media darling of Metropolis, Chloe Sullivan was the laughingstock of Smallville High.

Lois Lane holds Clark Kent's heart in her hand, Chloe Sullivan could never quite grasp that oh-so-elusive prize...

Yet, standing in the bathroom of her uber-trendy penthouse, the only thing Lois Lane can think of as she methodically brushes her teeth....is that a part of her would give almost anything to be Chloe again. To go back to that life. To give up everything she has now...good and bad.

The flutter of a cape and the sound of a familiar footfall is a sharp reminder why she cannot. Why she dare not entertain such ideas...

The world needed Superman far more than it would ever need a quirky little reporter who'd never quite made it where she'd been so determinedly headed...

Quirking a smile at herself in the mirror, Lois couldn't help the thought that whispered through her mind...

The good of the many....
