    Summary

    Bruce temporarily crashes at Clark's apartment in Metropolis while his manor is being renovated. Living together blurs the boundary between "friendship", "work colleagues" and "something more."

    "I thought you quit smoking," he said.

    Bruce looked down at the cigar, turning it slightly between his fingers.

    "Old habits die hard."

    Clark raised an eyebrow.

    "Apparently."

    Bruce took another slow drag, his gaze returning to the skyline.

    "Some habits are harder to break than others."

    Clark smiled faintly.

    "Yeah. I suppose they are."

    Clark's gaze slowly drifted toward Bruce.

    Bruce brought the cigar to his lips and took another slow inhale, the tip glowing faintly in the darkness. He held the smoke for a moment before exhaling, his eyes still fixed on the skyline.

    The wind lightly brushed through Bruce's dark hair, lifting a few strands from his forehead. With the city lights behind him and the faint glow of the cigar illuminating his features, he looked like he had stepped straight out of a movie.
