Pairing/Characters: Lois Lane, Clark Kent, pre-Clark/Lois, background Oliver/Dinah
Rating:: G
Word Count: 1075
Summary: Lois is having a less than great time at a wedding, until she runs into a new face at the bar.
A/N: written for this tumblr meme, for clarkenting, prompt: two miserable people meeting at a wedding au
Rule #1: do not go to your ex boyfriend’s wedding, no matter how close you are these days, or how pathetic he looks when he insists that he wants you there.
Rule #2: If you are suckered in, make sure you have a date, because otherwise you will just look sad and desperate.
Especially if said ex is a famous billionaire and everyone knows you dated. Then those rules should be bolded and underlined. Lois had learned that the hard way and was ready to tattoo that advice on her arm so she didn’t forget. Not that any of her other exes were rich former playboys, but better safe than sorry.
The ceremony was lovely, and Lois was happy for Oliver, who looked elated with Dinah, someone she was grudgingly coming around to, after their not so hot start. She was just truly glad he had found the one who could handle him and all aspects of his life (some of which Dinah directly shared, from what Lois could tell) in the way she hadn't been able or willing to.
She loved Oliver ... as a friend, of course.
However, her status as his ex was too well known for her liking, and by the time the reception had started, she was tired of getting pitying looks or hit on by men whose wallets were only matched by the size of their ego.
Thank God for the open bar.
