Summary: Lex spoiling his secretary, and when it starts to become too much, the real reason for his gifts comes out
——————————————————————————————————
It was no secret that Lex could be dramatic.
He had been for all that time that you'd known him, making it abundantly clear that he appreciated anything that made an impact. That didn't change when it came to you, not even as his assistant.
For as long as you'd been working as his personal assistant, Lex would make a point to catch you off guard with extravagant surprises. Whether it was sending roses to your house without reason or gifting you a gold bangle on your desk after a long day of work.
Nothing was too much for you, as far as he was concerned.
However, for you, it was much too extravagant, and you'd told him that on multiple occasions. It didn't matter what you said though, because the flow of presents never ceased.
It was highly inappropriate to accept such expensive gifts from an employer, you knew that, but it didn't matter what you said or how many times you tried to send them back. Lex wouldn't take no for an answer.
At this point in your career, you still couldn't believe it.
You knew that he could be dramatic but what you didn't realize when you started was that Lex was also incredibly stubborn. Maybe you shouldn't have been surprised, given the reputation his father'd had but it would have been a lie to say you weren't.
"What is this, Mr.Luthor?" you inquired, not even bothering to knock as you entered his office with a start. Your heels clicked on the hardwood as you approached, but you didn't pay that any mind.
All you could think about was the large box you were holding in your arms, doing your best to keep from dropping it as you moved. The beforementioned box was sitting on your porch when you woke up this morning.
At first, you naturally assumed that there had been a mix up and it wasn't meant for you. No one in their right mind would send you such a large box, you were sure of it. However, when you checked the label, you saw that wasn't the case at all.
Right there on the side of the box, was your name, scribbled in messy handwriting.
You may have missed it, discarding it as some kind of mistake on any other day. Luckily, it was the same handwriting that you'd been reading and rewriting since you were an undergrad. There was no way you could physically misunderstand.
As soon as it clicked in your mind that Lex had sent this, you sighed. That, in itself, wasn't all that surprising to you. After all, knowing who'd sent it wasn't the problem. The problem resided inside the box, which when you opened it revealed a black cocktail dress. A black cocktail dress that was, most likely, more expensive than your monthly rent.
It was pushing the envelop, even for him.
You knew that you couldn't just let Lex spend that much money on you, especially with no good explanation. It just didn't make any sense, and would cause quite the uproar if the other members of the company found out.
There was no real reason for Lex to constantly try to buy you. He already paid you above minimum wage.
Frankly, there was nothing more that you could want that you didn't already have and you had to get him to stop. Money may not have meant much to Lex but it did mean a lot to you. There had to be someone else that he could spend all his money on, someone that he really cared about, for example.
You could only imagine how his father would react if he could see him now, blowing this much money on an assistant.
Lex only smiled at your intrusion into his office, grinning into his coffee cup.
He had been expecting you, albeit sooner rather than later. The male knew that as soon as he sent that package, he would be hearing from you about it. At this point, it was more than expected, as soon as you got his gifts.
However, your arrival was always welcome, even if he did wish that you would have come sooner. With a face like that, you could do anything you wanted as far as he was concerned, not that he would ever say that to you.
There was a thin line between flattery and harassment and Lex wasn't interested in crossing that. While he knew you didn't ask for his gifts, he couldn't help but send them. Speaking to you without upmost respect was a different matter entirely.
"You got my present" he beamed, getting an eyeful of the cloth hanging from your grasp now.
At your feet was the box, which you'd opened and discarded. Your focus was entirely on the black dress he'd bought, holding it out in front of you, clearly asking for an explanation. Though, Lex didn't have much of one for you.
He had went out specifically to pick it out for you, and he was sure that you would love it, just as the sales clerk at the boutique had assured him that you would. Lex just couldn't wrap his head around the fact that you weren't happy about it.
At the look on his face, you sighed.
"Yes I did. Why would you send me something like this?" you wondered, gesturing the price tag forward. You still couldn't believe that he would spend so much on a dress, it was simply too expensive.
Too expensive for you, at least.
Lex seemed to forget one thing about you during all his shopping, and that was that you weren't anything more than his employee. You weren't friends, you weren't his partner, you weren't his girlfriend. There was no reason for him to shower you with so much of his wealth.
It was starting to get even more ridiculous than before.
The male seemed shocked at your comment, though you couldn't be sure if it was at the sentiment your words carried or the fact that you were asking in the first place. He'd bought it because he wanted to, of course.
However, rather than tell you that, Lex held his tongue. He knew that, while his quip was witty and clever,  it wasn't going to make you feel any better than before.
"I thought that you'd like it" he shrugged, a look on his face that was rather genuine, albeit confused. As simple as it seemed to you, Lex really didn't seem to understand what he'd done wrong.
As far as he was concerned, there was nothing wrong with a little gift giving now and then. Still, even though you understood that he meant well, you couldn't let Lex keep blowing his money so irresponsibly on you.
It was just too much.
"I do like it, but I can't accept it. You can't keep buying me all these expensive things, I'm just your assistant" you reminded, hoping that you could get through to him in some way, even if you were potentially crossing a line with your boldness.
It was rare for someone to talk to Lex like that, as he was pretty used to just getting his way and doing what he wanted all the time. However, he sat in silence for a moment or two, in quiet contemplation before speaking.
"You're fired"
Those two words left his lips rather quickly, shocking you. Naturally, you assumed that you'd gone too far and upset him in some way, but that wasn't it at all. There was no upset or malice in his voice, instead, he was smiling.
Almost as if he didn't just tell you something that you never thought you would hear.
"I'm fired? Why?"  you asked, at this point accepting the fact that you had nothing to lose if this was, in fact, that last time you would be standing here.
It didn't make any sense.
You knew that Lex had never had a better assistant than you, and likely would never have another again, so it didn't make any sense that you two were going your separate ways after all this time.
Though, before you could completely panic, Lex cleared his throat. It was a strange action knowing Lex who wasn't one for subtle gestures, but you didn't say anything for a second. It was against your nature, but you held your tongue for a second to let him explain.
It couldn't hurt.
"Because it would be a conflict of interest to ask my personal assistant to have dinner with me, but if you aren't my assistant, then there isn't a problem with my gifts, is there?" he asked, thinking through everything all at once.
He was more than a few steps ahead of you, but when you stopped to think about it, he wasn't wrong. All that meant though, was that those gifts Lex loved so much weren't going to stop anytime soon.

Of the Red Adidas Suit, the STD and the Funny Face (Jason Todd x Reader)
Jason Todd Highschool AU
Jason Todd x Reader
Prompt:  I was making ugly faces at a friend in class and I forgot you’re right in front of me oh god you’re cute too this is so embarrassing please stop laughing.
Sex ed was the absolute worst. Not only was it your first class on Monday morning, it was also taught by one of the most spectacularly cringey man who assumed wearing a full red Adidas tracksuit made him ‘hip’.
You reached school a few minutes earlier today and just your luck, all your books fell out of your locker. You pinched the bridge of your nose, exhaling harshly. This was going to be a great day. You could tell.
You trudged your way to sex ed. You slumped down on a chair, massaging your temples. You probably shouldn’t have stayed up till 3am last night, reading all that fanfiction.
 You vaguely registered people filling into class, and your friend from the cheer team, (Y/F/N), sitting right next to you.
 You propped your head on your hand, your eyes fluttering shut as you were just about to return to dreamland. And then walked in your sex ed teacher, in a parrot green tracksuit, with a box of condoms in his hands.
‘Great,’ you thought to yourself, ‘more condoms that I’ll never use.’
“Pass them on”, he grunted out as he plopped himself on his desk, fiddling with the computer. You stared at the tin foil packet in your hand, utterly unimpressed. You had around fifty of these stashed in a drawer at home, which would probably never see the light of day.
 Where were the high school clichés when you needed them? You were head cheerleader and the closest thing you experience to a sexual encounter was that one party when Lex Luthor’s scrawny freshman brother decided to grab your ass in a drunken stupor. You never even had a boyfriend for Christ’s sake.
 (Y/F/N) said it was because the guys were too intimidated to ask you out. Well, you couldn’t help your resting bitch face even if your life depended on it, so oh well. Cheer leading and student government took too much of your time anyway.
 Red Adidas turned on the projector, put on a movie about someone named Nancy who contracted an STD and promptly dosed off, many of the students doing the same.
Maybe it was the lack of sleep or maybe it was the prankster in you suddenly awakening, but when your friend tapped your shoulder, you contorted your face into the silliest one you could muster and snapped your head towards her with a new found energy.
Tumblr media
 Oh crap.
Instead of finding your friends (Y/F/E) eyes looking at you, you found yourself gazing into icy blue ones. Your face was frozen into your current expression as Jason Todd, the smartest boy in Gotham shuddered with silent laughter.
 His shoulders shook violently as her laid his head on the desk trying to muffle his laughter. Your cheeks and ears were heating up. You were pretty sure you looked like a tomato. Coaxing your face into a normal-ish expression, you grumbled to yourself, ‘way to make an impression on your crush’
PS: Feel free to send in prompts and I’ll do them with any character from Young Justice, the Batfam and the Marvel universe

Summary: Lex has been skipping sleep just to work through the night, but his lady isn’t having it. 
———————————————————————————————————
Alex was a man full of ambition, and dreams for the future. His ideas were brilliant, and his plans perfectly thought out, each one documented carefully in the recesses of his mind.
The only problem with having so many ideas held in his head was that it became hard to sleep with so much bouncing around in his skull.
You'd woken up a thousand times to cold, empty sheets at your side. So many times in fact, that it became hard to recall when the last time you'd actually seen him sleep through the night.
Until it finally began affecting your own sleep schedule.
"Alexander Joseph...why are you awake?" you asked, your bare feet padding lightly against the floor of his lab. The florescent glow of his LED lights were the only ones on in the house, which didn't help your eyes, still full of sleep.
Lex chuckled, swiveling in his desk chair to turn toward you. The sight that met him was humorous if nothing else, the sight of you in your pajamas, hair ruffled was never unwelcome as far as he was concerned.
"Full name, and middle? I really am in trouble now" he joked, trying to lighten the mood and your anger as best he could. You frowned, rolling your eyes at his antics, ever the theatrical.
You really were unhappy with him, not only for ruining his own sleep but for ruining your own as well. There was no way in the world for him to continue his groundbreaking work against the kryptonians if he wasn't able to keep his eyelids open for more than a moment.
"I've told you a million times that lights out is when I go to sleep, I'm tired of waking up without you" you huffed, crossing your arms across your chest which only made your cleavage that much more visible to his wandering gaze.
Lex nodded, only partially listening as he focused his attention more on your shorts than your upset, though he truly did care about what you had to say. It was just that, he'd heard it so many times before.
"You know how important my work is Y/N, I can't help that it needs me" He assured, his voice casual as he gestured out toward you. He wanted nothing more than to feel the lull of your skin against his own, warm and comforting.
You knew how much Alex wanted to feel loved and accepted, something you tried to give him, even though he was essentially a child, fighting against you tooth and nail no matter what. "I'm not your mother Lex, I just want my boyfriend in bed with me...sometimes" you sighed, the argument was so played out, what was the point when he wasn't going to listen.
"I'm in bed with you plenty sweetness, but right now I'm busy" you wanted to smack him, for being arrogant or for being stupid, you weren't sure. "Fine Alex, be busy then" you scoffed, turning away from him in earnest, if he wasn't going to listen, then you would just have to make him understand.
Lex knew you were mad at him, of course he knew. There was no one alive who knew you better than him, and he liked it that way. But you had to understand that he was dealing with things much bigger than himself, things that couldn't be ignored, no matter how clingy you got.
Unfortunately, he couldn't stop himself from following you back to your shared bedroom, knowing well enough to leave his lab coat in the kitchen on the way. You hated lab-wear in the bedroom, it just reminded  you of how busy and unattainable to love of your life had made himself.
Sometimes it felt like he did it on purpose, treated you like one of his assistance instead of his other half. It was annoying and you felt you had every right to be upset.
When Lex finally made it, you were back in bed with your back to him, pouting. You were lucky he had such a soft spot for you, or else he would still be down analyzing the components of kryptonite. "Are you really not going to talk to me?" he asked, sliding in behind you in bed, his arm tossed lazily over your shoulder.
It took everything you had to shove him off, keeping your eyes locked in front of you in the darkness. He thought that he could get away with whatever he wanted just because you loved him, but there was much more to it than that. "Nope" your voice was slight and quick, clearly letting him know that you were still upset.
Lex sighed, letting his breath fan the back of your neck to let you know how close he was to you. All you had to do was turn your head and his lips would have been on your own, but you weren't going to give him that satisfaction.
"I've devoted everything to you, given you my heart...my everything, and you act like I'm a burden, a child"
You wanted to yell and scream at him, but your words fell from your lips just above a whisper. You understood how much stress he was under and you didn't want to add to that, but you weren't going to let it go on for any longer.
Lex chuckled, re-positioning himself in the bed to lean over you, his hand wrapped totally around your middle to bring you that much closer to his waiting frame. "I understand how much you've given up for us, and I appreciate your sacrifice" he started, stopping you with a blunt finger to your lips before you could interrupt.
"I appreciate you, but that's why I have to do this...so I can protect you from him" He finished, using the same finger that he just been pressed to the pillows of your lips to gesture above him. You knew what he was referring to, the same thing he always talked about, his reason for doing all of this in the first place...Superman.
It was sweet, endearing even that Alex would share that with you, considering how guarded he was with his feelings, and you agreed with him. There was no way to justify relying on some space alien to solve all of the world problems in good conscience  but there had to be another way.
There had to be a way that you and Lex could work together toward your goal, so that you could help him shoulder the burden without feeling so tossed aside.
Your lover seemed to share your opinion, his eyes focused on yours shining in the dark. You were the most beautiful being he had ever laid eyes on, and the thought of something, anything harming you filled him with rage, even if that something was him.
"I understand that you want a more active role in my affairs, I can make that happen if it's what you want" he hummed, leaning down to press a soft kiss to your jaw, soft and comforting. Everything about you was so comforting and familiar, ever inch of your body was mapped out in his mind, and he wouldn't have had it any other way.
He knew exactly where to press and touch to get you closest to him, and sometimes he used your feelings for each other as the best way to get out of the doghouse, though it was wrong. "Yeah, I think that would be a good start" You cooed, returning his affections with a light kiss to his waiting lips, which he smiled into the moment you made contact.
"-But Lex...stay with me now" you suggested, deepening the kiss for him well-being and your own.
The next morning, you were made an official partner in LexCorp, but more importantly you were made that much happier with Alex in bed with your each night, right on time.
