Chapter 1 (Lex POV)
Thank You

“Chloe do want a drink?” Lex said standing at the bar on the Luthor Corp jet. They were heading back to Smallville. Lex had never been happier when his sources told him Chloe was alive in a hospital in Yukon, Canada.

He didn't know how she got there nor did he care anymore. He just wanted to make sure she was safe.

He flew to get her immediately. He had to make sure she was ok. His guilt for bringing her to caves was so overwhelming he didn’t believe he could go on with life if she died because of him.

He pushed her away trying to forget her smile, her warmth, and her wit. He attempted to bury himself in his plans to find the stones use Lana to do it and find out Clark’s secret.

Then the realization hit that she could be gone forever and his feelings for her were never expressed. It would just add to another failure in the long list in his life. Things had gone so wrong with his quest for the stones. He failed with Lana in getting what he wanted and finding the truth about Clark was turning out to be a dead end. He wouldn’t let Chloe go as another failure.

When he found her he was going to finally make her an invitation into his life. She seemed to want him to but he pushed her away to afraid to rely on emotions as his guide. He could no longer suppress his feelings. He loved her and he was going to make sure she knew and hoped he would get what he wanted, her loving him back.

“Yes could I have something warm please? I don’t do scotch like you.” Chloe replied to Lex walking over to him at the bar. “Lex thank you for coming to get me. I wish I could explain to you what happen to me in the caves but…”

Lex interrupted her “Chloe stop. There is no need to thank me or explain. I had to find you. If it weren’t for me you wouldn’t have been there in danger in the first place. I am sorry for putting you in that position again.”

“Lex you were acting on instinct when you saw me in the study. I would have thought the same thing you had if I saw you in the same place you found me. Just let me thank you”

Chloe leaned in closer to Lex’s face almost about to touch his lips with hers “Let me thank you Lex” she said then pressed her lips into his.

Lex couldn’t believe what was happening. Chloe was kissing him. He hadn’t even told her he loved her yet but she was kissing him. She must love me to he thought as he let his hands leave the glass he was holding to wrap Chloe into his arms.

Lex slipped his tongue into her mouth when she opened for him and played around with hers letting the feeling of getting what he wanted wash over him. Then he jerked to a stop when he felt Chloe’s hand on his hardening cock.

“Wait you don’t have to thank me like this. I don’t want you to think that…” Lex’s thought was cut short because Chloe was kissing him again pushing him into one of the plush chairs in the cabin.

When she finally released his lips she got on her knees and looked up into his eyes “Lex please just let me thank you.” Then she moved her hands back to his forming bulge and unzipped his pants pulling them down freeing his now fully erect cock from her touch.

“Chloe you don’t have to do…” He was cut off again because now her tongue was licking up and down his cock. “Ahhh! Chloe that feels amazing” he said starting to lose control.

He didn’t put up anymore fight he let Chloe thank him. She started sucking away at the head of his cock and using her hand to pump the rest of him. “Fuck! That feels so good Chloe” he shouted grabbing at her shoulders.

Then Chloe moved her hand and slid his cock completely into her mouth. She started to bob her head up and down his length. Lex pushed into her mouth getting her into the perfect rhythm. “Fuck!” he shouted again knowing his release was now quickly approaching.

He gripped her shoulder tighter as she settled into his pushes and Lex was now panting saying her name over and over again. She was giving him this. She was thanking him. It wasn’t her returning his feelings but it was start.

Chloe grabbed onto Lex’s thighs increased her rhythm sucking harder on him. He couldn’t take anymore he bucked up into her mouth coming in short spurts screaming her name shutting his eyes in ecstasy.

As his orgasm settled he heard his name in the distance. “Mr. Luthor! Mr. Luthor!”

He opened his eyes and saw his pilot shaking him trying to wake him up. Chloe wasn’t there. She wasn’t down on her knees pleasing him.

“Mr. Luthor we are here. The transport is ready to take you to the girl. Are you ok sir your sweating?” the pilot said.

Lex realized he was only dreaming. That he just arrived in Yukon, Canada on his way to retrieve Chloe.

“I’m fine.” Lex said in a cold voice. He was pissed that Chloe wasn’t really with him giving him a blow job.

He could only hope that when he told her he loved her that she would even give him a hug let alone a blow job after what he put her though.

Chapter 2 (Chloe POV)
Truth

Chloe kept shifting in her chair, fiddling with her seat belt, checking her clothes. She was on the Luthor Corp jet with Lex and just wasn’t comfortable.

She hadn’t been in around him much that year and being around him again was making her uneasy. She felt like every time he looked her way he was peering though her clothes seeing her naked body. When he would look away he had the worst look on his face.

He seemed to be in a horrible mood the minute she saw him. She was sound a sleep in the hospital waiting for Clark to return when Lex woke her. She said Clark’s name thinking it was him but it was Lex.

After she spoke he gave her a cold look and told her he was there to take her home and since then he seemed to be in a foul mood and not spoken another word to her. The silence was killing her. She wanted to yell at him for getting her into this mess.

Chloe stop shifting about for a moment and glanced over at Lex in the chair ahead of her on the jet. He was almost in a frown. He was rubbing his forehead and looked deep in thought. It was like it pained him to be in her presence.

Why was does he look up set she thought? He was the one that put her in this place. If he hadn’t hauled her to the cave in a rage he wouldn’t have to be around her.

She looked away from him and checked her cloths again. She fussed with the buttons on her tight green top then shifted in her chair again. She let her mind wonder as to why Lex had brought her a change of clothes and why this top? Did mean something to him? Did he like the color on her? The way it hugged her breast or that she wore a few buttons down so she could have a little cleavage?

She let out a sigh and tried to shut off her thoughts. Lex didn’t care what she had on he just came to get her to find out what happened to her in the cave. He didn’t care that she could have been hurt or died. She thought they had been friends and then all last year he cut her out of his life, He even tried to kill her when he was split in two.

Chloe was no longer feeling uneasy, she was getting pissed off. She couldn’t believe after everything she went through with Lex he forced her to go to that cave.

He never thanked her for all the work she did trying to get Lionel into jail. It was like he forgot the summer they were together when she was in hiding. The time they spent together. The connection she assumed was forming. What a fool she was. She couldn’t take it anymore him sitting there in silence like he was the hurt party.

She unhooked her safety belt and walked over to him with her hands high on her hips “Lex. You owe me and apology” she said staring right into his blue gray eyes.

He flinched in his chair and his frown turned into a confused face. Chloe didn’t move a muscle she stood there with her game face on.

Lex shifted in his chair undid his belt and stood so close to her she could feel his breath on her skin.” I think you have it wrong Chloe. You owe me the apology and a thank you for finding you” he said with no emotion at all.

“I certainly do not” Chloe roared back at him “If you didn't dragged me to the cave I would be at home in Smallville. I would be with my father and Lois making sure they were alright. Giant fiery rocks were falling from the sky and you didn’t think about my safety just what you wanted. You owe me an apology Lex!” Chloe peered at him right into his eyes and she saw them shift down.

His eyes shifted back to her and he reached to grab her shoulders. He hadn’t done that in ages. Chloe did her best not shutter under his touch. When they spent time together during her summer hide away he would touch her like this all the time reassuring her everything would be alright and every time Chloe wished he would have done a little more but not now her rage was boiling over.

“Chloe” Lex started then paused searching for the right words “You don’t know how worried I was when you disappeared. If anything had happen to you I would have never forgive myself” then his voice shifted into an anger tone “but you still pushed me down in that cave and if you hadn’t you would have never gotten into this mess!”

Chloe tore herself away from him “Fuck you Lex! You’re such an arrogant bastard” she saw his eyes widen at her insult.

“You’re embarrassed because you got pushed down by a girl. I won’t apologize for that. I was trying to get away from you. You brought me there against my will. You were crazed I had no idea what you would do to me.”

“Chloe! I would never hurt you intentionally” Lex said moving back toward her putting his face close to hers again staring her down almost unable to control his breath.

“Yeah right Lex. Is that why you haven’t spoken to me in a year? I thought we were friends and then nothing. You treated me like I didn’t exist that hurt my feelings. If you even know what feelings are.” Chloe was breathing heavily now. She didn’t care if her breath was coating Lex’s face. She inched herself closer to him giving him the same look he was giving her.

Then Lex shot back at her “I have feelings Chloe! Lots of feelings! I thought I could trust you and you stood in my study and lied to me. You know who broke into my vault. You know who took the element. You call yourself my friend. Then why did you hurt me with that lie?“ Lex grabbed her arms the same way he did before he pulled to the cave.

Chloe started to struggle with him trying to get away “Lex let me go. I won’t let you man handle me again.” Lex just tighten his grip on her.

“You have no idea the feelings that I have Chole!” Lex’s voice was in a rage. “I searched franticly for you hoping you weren’t hurt or worse dead and when I get there all you can think of his Clark”

Chloe stopped struggling and cringed her face in confusion “What does Clark have to do with anything. I said I was dreaming! You’re so damn arrogant Lex. You just assumed I would jump into your arms for coming to rescue me. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have needed to be rescued!”

He released her tossing her aside and roared turning his back to her reaching for his forehead to rub it again in frustration but before he could Chloe grabbed his arm and turned him back to her.

“Lex! I’m still waiting for my apol…” her words stop short. His face was so pained. She had never seen him like that before. It was like her words were cutting him up inside.

He grabbed her shoulders again. Peered at her again so hard Chole felt like he could see into her then he spoke in soft tone she never heard before “Chloe I am sorry. I’m sorry I made you go to the cave with me. I’m sorry that I pulled you away from your family during the worst possible time. I’m sorry I have pushed you away this year. I’m sorry that my actions have hurt your feelings in anyway. You don’t know how hard it’s been for me to be away from you this year.” He finished his speech and kept his eyes on her.

Chloe was getting a warm feeling from his words. He was opening up to her. She never heard him speak like that before. She didn’t know he ever emitted to doing something wrong let alone apologize. She just stood there gazing at him.

Lex pulled away from her and turned his back to her again “You don't know how much the truth has been hurting me all this time. You don’t know how hard it is for me to tell you the truth Chloe” he finished with a pained sigh.

Chloe had no clue what he was talking about. “The truth about what Lex?” She said turning him back towards her looking into eyes again. Getting strangely aroused by the way he was looking back.

“Chloe I…”Lex stop talking and reached for her again. He pulled her close to him settled his arm around her waist and used the other to run his fingers through her hair. Chloe didn’t pull away. She had no idea what was happening she just let him touch her.

He bushed his thumb across her check then her lips. He was going to kiss her Chloe thought. Only she couldn’t understand why.

His eyes relaxed on her eyes then he moved the hand that was stroking her lips back to her check and started to lower his lips.

Chloe didn’t know what to do. She just let him. A few seconds ago she was ready to tear his head off now she was about let him kiss her. Just before he reached her lips she heard him whisper “I can only show you the truth.” Then he pressed his lips into her.

Chloe’s body had an involuntary response and she flung her arms around him pushing her self into him. Lex grabbed at her tighter pushing his pelvis into her slightly aroused center. Chloe opened her mouth for him and let him slide his tongue into her and taste her. He was pulling her closer to him pushing himself into her.

Chloe could feel the warmth of his bodyon her, his tongue flicking around in her mouth, and him moaning as she let her tongue dance together with his.

She couldn’t believe Lex was kissing her and now that he was pushing his pelvis so close to her she could feel him getting hard.

She couldn’t do this with him. He had abandon their so called friendship for months and now he was trying to show her the truth by kissing her.

She was so confused by all of it she pulled away from him. She heard Lex let out a harsh breath in responses to her release. Chloe started searching the plane looking for a place to sit. Her head was spinning. Her world was being turned upside down.

What truth was Lex trying to tell her in that kiss? She just kept letting the thought spin her about. “I need…to sit…” she managed to say feeling like she was going to throw up.

Lex grabbed her helped her to the chair. She tried to catch her breath push back the feelings of nausea. Then she turned her gaze back to Lex. He looked so concerned.

Chloe searched his eyes. She saw the truth. She realized what Lex was trying to tell her and it just made her angry all over again. “Are you in love with me or something!” she shouted.

Chapter 3 (Lex POV)
Face Reality

Lex stood up. He shuffled his feet from side to side. Chloe was staring at him waiting for and answer looking pissed off again.

For a moment he had her in his arms then she pulled away and almost looked like she was going vomit in disgust that he had kissed her.

“Will you stop shuffling your feet and answer my question Lex!” Chloe said staring up at him from her chair.

Lex tried to calm his emotions. He was now sporting an erection that was becoming very painful. He was so embarrassed that he let one kiss from Chloe get him so worked up.

She was making his emotion jump all over the place. Anger when she woke up expecting it be Clark that would come for her. He wanted Clark to be the last thing on her mind when he saw her but there he was taking her away from him.

Then he felt guilt when she mentioned that he had taken her away from her father Gabe and Lois during the meteor shower when she should have been with her family.

Then he felt sorry for all the time he spent away from her last year hurting her feelings.

Now he was aroused. All he could think about was kissing her again. Pulling away at the tight green top he bought her, yanking down her jeans, plunging his cock into her wet pussy, thrusting into her, licking and sucking her nipples, and he wanted nothing more right at that moment then to be in the throws of passion with Chloe having her panting out his name beneath him enjoying every second of pleasure he was giving her.

Lex was starting to sweat from the thought of making love to Chloe. He had to distance himself from her.

He couldn’t get off the plane they were at least an hour from Smallville. So he ran to the bathroom like a little boy. “Lex are you going answer me” she shouted after him “Are you in love with me or not?”

Lex ignored her he had to regain control of his emotions. He shut and locked the door to the bathroom, unzipped his pants and pulled out his painful erection and started to pump away at it. He had to do this release his desires so he could get his control back.

He pumped away at his cock and then caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror. He was embarrassed. He was Lex Luthor in the bath of his own jet jerking off because he couldn’t control his desire for a girl just out of high school.

He pushed his embarrassed feelings back and closed his eyes. He thought of the dream he had of Chloe thanking him by sucking his cock and it just made him pump away at himself harder.

He thought of the kiss just now, her arms around him, her tongue slipping in and out of his mouth, and her pressing herself against him like she wanted him just as much as he wanted her.

He let those images bring him to climax biting down on his lip trying not to yell out Chloe’s name as he did. He placed his cock back in his pants, zipped up, washed his hands, and splashed some cool water on his face. He looked at himself in the mirror and tried to get his plans back in order.

He still wanted to tell Chloe he loved her but he felt it may be too much for her to handle right now. She almost vomited after he kissed her it would just get worst if he told the truth.

“Lex what are you doing in there? Open the door! Answer me Lex? Are you alright?” it was Chloe banging away at the door and she sounded concerned.

Lex took a deep breath and opened the door. He scanned her face and she no longer looked up set just confused and concerned.

“I’m fine. I just need a minute to… Ummm...to…” he couldn’t think of what to tell her. He walked away from the bathroom and sat back in his chair in the cabin. Then he jerked up from the chair because it just made him think of Chloe on her knees with his cock in her mouth from his dream. So he stood next to the bar trying to find the right words. “I had to take some time to…”

He was cut off by Chloe “You had to take time to what? Get your erection under control?” she walked over to him now standing next to him at the bar.

Lex couldn’t believe she knew what he was doing in the bathroom. It was like she was in there with him. She always saw right though him. He nodded his head in shame.

“Lex what is going on? Why are you acting like this? Why did you kiss me? Why are you getting hard and jerking off in the bathroom? Are you in love with me or not?!” her voice got louder with each question.

He wanted to answer all her questions but he couldn’t seem to form the right words. The reality that if he told her the truth it could push her away again like when they kissed was so painful.

“God Lex! The suspense is killing me. Answer my questions. Just pick one any of them.” she shouted pulling him to look at her.

He must have looked like a lost puppy to her. He didn’t know where to start. He didn’t love anyone the way he loved Chloe.

“Chloe I want to answer all your questions” he said looking into her green eyes getting lost in them again just like before he kissed her. “I want to answer you but I don’t think you will like what you hear. You almost vomited just now and I only kissed you.”

“Yes I was feeling a little bit spun but you were kissing me Lex. Everything was spinning out of control. Lex Luthor’s lips, tongue and hands were all over me and I got a little scared by it. Then I felt you…you getting hard and I freaked” she tried reaching for his arm.

Lex flinched away from her. He had to keep his distance. The image of her words shot back into his mind he had to push them back. If she touched him again he would just get aroused all over again and lose control.

“Chloe” he tried to start again “I can’t let these feelings I have be a secret anymore” he paused and saw her eyebrows shift up at his words “I did push you away last year. I had to.”

“But why Lex? We were friends or at least I thought we were. Then it just stopped like I had done something wrong.”

He wanted to touch her. His guilt for pushing her away was starting to brim over again. “I had to distance myself from you and maintain control. You were in high school and I was...I was…”

“You were what Lex?” she interrupted “Lusting after me or something? That is not a reason to shut me out of your life. You seemed to be just fine with lusting after Lana all year and we are the same age.”

Lex shifted his stance and slouched a little. He did start pining after Lana but it was just for information about the stones. He never wanted her he just wanted to use her. His guilty started to burn in his chest for making Chloe think he didn’t want her.

He let himself get closer to her “Chloe your right but I don’t want Lana. Believe me I have no interest in someone like her.”

“Lex answer my initial question. Are you in love with me?” she reached to touch his arm again and Lex didn’t pull away this time. He stared back into her eyes he wanted to tell her. He had to the words where eating away at his insides.

He was going to take the risk of rejection “Yes Chloe. I have been in love with you for longer then I should have been without telling you the truth.” He reached to rub her check again and her face was cringed.

She was getting that same dazed look on her face like after the kiss. She was rejecting him Lex thought. She didn’t love him back. How could she after what he had done. He pulled away from her and turned his back to her.

When he retuned to her she was sitting with her hands covering her face. She was crying. He felt a pain in his chest. He made her cry with his love. Why did his life have to be so cruel? He couldn’t just have what he really wanted.

“Chloe don’t cry” he said walking toward her. He wanted to confront her. He knew he didn’t have the right to but he couldn’t control his need to do so. He reached out and placed his hands on her shoulders. “Chloe look at me. I understand if you don’t love me back. If you think I’m being to forward. If you want me to explain I will do my best to. Please Chloe look at me.”

She let out a few short sobs then pulled her hands down and wiped away a few tears and looked into his eyes “Lex I don’t believe you. Your right this is just too much. I can’t take it. Please just give me a minute to process this. Just let me settle into the reality that you could…that you are… that I…” she started sobbing again and ran to the bathroom.

When she returned to her seat she was cleaned up but she didn’t say anything. Lex was sitting and didn’t get up to approach her. He just let her sit back down. Her face was blank like his words had no affect on her at all.

He let his emotions get the best of him and he hated himself for it. She didn’t love him back. Lex had to face the reality that she never would. He opened up for nothing. It was another failure to add to the list.

They didn’t speak another word the rest of the flight. When they landed a car was waiting to take them back to their lives in Smallville which meant Chloe would be taken away from him.

They got into the car and she exhaled and finally said something to him but she was so cold “Do you know were my father is or Lois? I want you to take me to them. I have to make sure they are safe”

Lex sighed and tried to speak in a normal voice without sounding so hurt that she was being so closed off “Of course I will take you to them.”

Lex took out is cell made a call to his sources and was told that Lois was with her father. He hung up the phone and couldn’t believe what he had to tell her now.

He spoke to the driver “Take us to the county hospital in Metropolis.”

Then he took a deep breath and looked at Chloe “Your father has been seriously injury and he is in surgery” he said it in a rush as if the words would hurt her less.

Then she started to cry again hiding her face in her hands and Lex just sat there feeling helpless.

Chapter Four
Taking a step back (Chloe POV)

Chloe ran down the hallway in the hospital to her father. She was told by the people at the front desk her father was in ICU.

There was a rush at the hospital people were every where with minor injuries. Some were burned, few with broken bones, people with bruises, and gashes. It was obvious that Smallville couldn’t handle all the injured after the second meteor shower hit. Chloe keep hoping her father’s injuries were just was minor.

Lex was right behind her running. She still couldn’t process the fact that he just said he was in love with her and now that her father was hurt she couldn’t deal with it now. Although things were strange with Lex she wanted him to be there with her at the hospital.

Chloe saw Lois sitting in the chairs outside the ICU . She was covered in ash and look like she had been to hell and back. “Lois!” Chloe called out to her and Lois turned to her and ran. They meet one another halfway and embraced.

“Thank God you are alright Chloe. I was worried sick then Lex’s people came by and told me you were fine.”

Chloe pulled out of the hug with a confused look her on face. She didn’t know Lex had made contact with Lois already. He must have done it before he came to get her.

She turned to look at Lex just standing there looking out of place. She pushed back the thoughts of Lex for now she had to see her father.

“Lois how is he? What happen?” Chloe turning back to Lois pleading for answers.

“It’s not good. He was trapped in a fire. They say that there are second degree burns covering more then half of his body. He also has a broken leg and Chloe…he suffered…he’s” Lois started sobbing.

Chloe knew it was serious she rarely saw this emotion from Lois she always seemed so strong. Chloe started to tear up now too “Lois tell me the rest what is it.?” she grasped her hands urging her speak.

“He sum how injuried his head. He’s in a coma. They don’t know if he is going to wake up.” Lois rushed though the rest and pulled Chloe in for a hug.

Chloe felt like she couldn’t stand. She was in shock. She stopped crying. The world stopped moving. Her father was in a coma. He was all she had in the world and she was about to lose him.

Lois pushed back her tears and looked back at Chloe. She must have seen the look of shock in her eyes and helped her sit down.

Chloe sat and tried to gain her composer. She felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked over and saw Lex sitting there. He was trying to comfort her. She looked into his eyes and started crying again throwing herself into Lex’s chest.

He pulled her in and she just sobbed. He didn’t even care that she was moistening his shirt with her tears he just held her.

“I want to see him” Chloe said muffled in Lex’s chest. She lifted her face to look back at Lois “I want to see him.”

Lois nodded, stood, and Chloe followed her. Then she paused and turned back to see Lex now standing watching her go. “Can you stay here until I get back?”

"I will be here” he paused then walked closer to her “Chloe let me call a specialist. I can have one here in a matter of minutes.”

“Thank you Lex.” Chloe said and walked away from him.

A doctor was with her father when she arrived. She wasn’t close enough to see him clearly. The doctor walked over to her a Lois.

“Miss Sullivan?” he asked.

“Yes that’s me. How is my father doing?” she tried to hold back her tears.

“I’m so sorry Miss Sullivan we set you father’s leg and treated his burn wounds but your father is not responding to any of the stimulus we are giving him. His breathing is being maintained right now by life support. Your father’s records state a do not resuscitate order. We are waiting on a head CT to assess the damage. If it can not be repaired then we will have to take him off the life support.”

The doctor finished his long speech. Chloe took a step back feeling like she might faint. Lois held her together “Can I see him now?” she manged to say.

“Yes of course I will leave you and as soon as we get the information we will let you know” the doctor walked off and she had a clear view of her father lying in the hospital bed.

“Lois just give me a few minutes” she said walking over to her father.

“Of course. I will see how Lex is doing at getting the specialist here.” Lois walked off back to hall.

Chloe was now standing over her father. He was banged all over and his left leg in a cast. “Daddy it’s me. I know I’m late. I got caught up in a terrible mess and…and…I had to…to find my way back.” She was trying to hold back the tears.

She looked back and pulled up a chair that was near by and sat next to her father. “I know it’s an excuse for not being here for you and you don’t take excuses.” Chloe grinned to herself remembering her father giving her the lecture about excuse and how they weren’t a reason for not doing what should have been done.

She couldn’t take it anymore and the tears started to flow. She put her head down next to her father’s body and just cried. She cried for what seemed like hours. She was exhausted from everything that had happen that day with Lex and now her father near death she just cried.

“Chloe?” she heard her name and jerked up. It was Lois touching her shoulder trying to get her attention “Lex came though with a neurologist. He’s here already if you can believe it. He’s looking at the images from your father’s head scan now.”

Chloe wiped away her tears and gave her father a kiss on his banged hand and walked out with Lois to see the specialist.

She saw Lex standing in the hall talking to what she assumed was the doctor. He had taken charge of the situation. He was good at that. He always knew how to take control when things seem to be completely out of control.

He finished speaking to the doctor and the doctor walked off. Lex turned to Chloe. His face was blank. She knew it wasn’t good. She took a step back so overwhelmed she finally fainted.

She came to and was lying in a hospital bed. She opened her eyes and tuned her head to left and to the right Lex was on one side and Lois on the other peering at her.

“What happen? Did they turn the life support off yet?” she said franticly jerking up out of the bed.

“Chloe slow down. You have been out for an hour.” Lex was standing now trying to get her back down on the bed.

Lois took her hand and bushed her hair back out of her face “They didn’t shut the life support off. They waited for you. They need you sign some paper work..before…” Lois’ face was cringed she was pushing back tears. “Chloe I’m sorry the neurologist said the damage was irreversible.”

Chloe just heaved like she was crying but couldn’t she was drained. She put her face in her hands hoping to hide.

“Let me put you up some where for the night.” She heard Lex say. “Your house is still in one piece but you shouldn’t have to travel back to Smallville like this tonight.”

Chloe looked up at him he look so concerned for her. She had no idea what she would do at home alone with her father's things. Pictures of him on the walls with her. His scent all over the house. His things out in open for her to see. She didn't know if she could be around those memories so Chloe didn’t put up a fight she just nodded at Lex.

“OK, let me make a few phone calls.” He got up and walked out of the room.

“The doctors are ready for you whenever you are.” Lois was still grasping at her hand.

Chloe tried to stand again. She was up and started to walk out of the room. She was walking to her sign away her father’s life.

She paused and took a step back taking in the moment. Realizing her life had changed in two ways today. She was told that she was loved then she lost the one person she believed loved her unconditionally.

Chapter 5
Invitation (Lex POV)

“That is totally unacceptable. Now either you get me what I asked for or….” Lex was yelling at the concierge of an expensive hotel in Metropolis.

The man on the other line was now trying to console Lex telling him that everything he wanted would be ready when he arrived

“Good!” Lex said and slammed his phone shut.

He was still in the hospital waiting for Chloe. He just told her he loved and she didn’t say it back but now that her father just died it didn’t matter. He wanted to be there for her.

He couldn’t possibly understand why she was so torn up about it seeing as if it were his father he would be relived to be rid of him. It was different for Chloe she had a supporting and loving father.

Lois walked up to Lex sitting in the waiting area. She had her I don’t take any stuff face on. “Look I don’t know what happen with you and Chloe during the meteor shower but why are you still here? She has me. I don’t think she needs a Luthor following her around right now. You bring nothing but trouble into her life.”

Lois paused and was staring Lex down. “I can take her home. You don’t have to put her up in some fancy hotel like she’s one of your call girls!”

Lex couldn’t take anymore from her. He stood up and met Lois face to face. “I’m trying to help her. She took my offer and I will make good on it. I think she needs all the support she can get right now. So just…”

Lex was cut off from telling Lois off “Are you two talking about me?” They both turned and saw Chloe.

She looked completely exhausted. Her hair was sticking to her face. She wasn’t crying but tears were still on her cheeks and her eyes and face were red and puffy.

“I don’t need you two disusing me like I’m a fragile creature. My father just died. I don’t need you two fighting. You’re both here to support me not bicker over what happens to me. I will decide what I want to do” Chloe finished putting them in there place and gave them both her best irritate look.

Lex was amazed at how strong she could be at a time like this. It made him love her a little more. “Are you ready to go?” he said walking toward her.

Lois ran ahead of him and stood in front of her “Chloe you can leave with me you don’t have to go with Lex.” Then she turned to Lex and gave him a cold face.

Lex wasn’t in anyway intimidated by Lois but she was right. She should be with what family she had left. “She’s right Chloe. It’s what you want to do.” He sighed wanting to be the one that was with her when she need someone but he assumed she stay with Lois.

“No, I want to stay in Metropolis tonight. I can’t go home…all the memories…I can’t” she started crying again. Lois embraced her.

“Alright, I will stop by and bring a few of your things by in the morning if that’s alright. I want to check on the Kents.” Lois said looking disappointed.

“What happen to the Kents are they hurt too?” Chloe eyes shifted up. Lex assumed she was so engrossed in her own lost she didn’t think of anyone else.

“No, no they are fine. Martha was hurt but they are fine. I just want to check in and I'm sure they want to see you too. You can come with me and see them. You should be with people that love you.” Lois turned back to Lex with another cold look.

Lex knew she would be with someone that loved her, him. He just hoped that Chloe belived that.

"No, I said I want to stay here Lois. It's ok if you go." Chloe signed. She seemed tried of being asked the same question.

Lois didn't put up anymore fight and gave Chloe a kiss on the cheek assured her that they would get though this and walked off.

As she passed Lex she gave him a warning “You better take care of her. I will stop by in the morning to see her. Where are you taking her?”

Lex gave Lois the information she need and was glad to be rid of her. He approached Chloe slowly “Are you ready? You can still go with Lois to the Kents.” Lex said it but he didn’t want Clark to be the one holding her when she cried. Even though he hated the emotion if Chloe was going to cry he wanted to be the one comforting her.

“I want to leave with you. Thank you Lex for being here. You really came through for me today.” Then Chloe started to exit the hospital.

Lex followed behind. He wanted to hold her hand or touch her shoulder but he didn’t want to push himself on her. He just walked closely behind her.

***

The sun was setting on what seemed like the longest day of Lex’s life. They drove to the hotel in silence. Chloe had stopped crying for the moment and was looking out the window away from Lex the entire ride.

Lex checked her in and walked her to the room. “Here is the key. I’ll leave you the number to my private line so you can call if you need anything.” Lex paused and walked over to Chloe now sitting on the over sized bed in the room “Call anytime. You don’t have to check out until you are ready to go home.”

She shifted her gaze to him from the floor “You’re leaving?”

Lex took a step back. Of course he was leaving and didn’t want to assume she wanted him to stay with her.

“Lex I need you to stay. I really shouldn’t be asking you this since I haven’t really returned your feelings and everything is such a mess but I need you to stay. I don’t know why but this is easier with you here. Besides if I wanted to be alone then I would have gone home” Chloe locked eyes with Lex.

He nodded as a sign of expecting her invitation to stay with her. “Do you want some food? I can order what ever you want. You need something to sleep in I can take care of that. If you want to take a shower I can leave until your finished and…” Lex was just babbling. He was trying to stay in control but all he could think about was Chloe wanting him there for the night.

He knew he wasn’t going to get to make love to her yet but he was going to be sleeping in the same room as her and be able to be there for her when she needed someone. It gave him a warm feeling he didn’t understand. He had been in the room with her alone when she was in hiding but they never spent the entire night together.

“Lex slow down” Chloe said interrupting him. “I just want to sleep. I want to take a shower and sleep. I don’t need you to pamper me any more then you already have with this huge room. You could have taken me some where a little less extravagant.”

Lex knew she wouldn’t approve of the room but he wanted it to be comfortable for her and he did things the only way he knew how.

“Ok then you shower and I will get something for you to wear.” Lex walked off from her and she made her way to the bathroom.

Lex was in the hotel shop looking at women’s pajamas. He had no clue what to get. He knew what he wanted. Something tiny, silky, and clingy that would show off Chloe’s curves but he knew it was inappropriate.

He was scanning over some warm cotton pajamas and he just couldn’t bring himself to buy those. He settled on a satin pair of pants with a matching satin long sleeved top. A little on the sex side but it wasn’t the tiny silky thing he wanted. It fell somewhere in the middle.

He made it back to the room and Chloe was in the shower. He didn’t want to go in there with the cloths but didn’t know how to bring them to her. He placed them on the sofa in clear view of the bathroom door so she could see them and walked back out.

He went to front desk to order food. Chloe may not be hungry but he was. It was late and he didn’t want anything to heavy so he ordered a fruit and cheese platter, his favorite blue bottled water, some salmon, and crackers. After he was done he waited in the lobby for Chloe to be done then realized he didn’t have a thing to wear.

He wasn’t going to sleep like he normally did with nothing on. He wasn’t wearing boxers and had to think of something fast. He ran back to the hotel shop and purchased a pair of stain pajama pants.

He let himself back into the room with his eyes closed “Chloe are you dressed?”

“Lex you can open your eyes.” He did and saw her in the satin pajamas eating away at the food he ordered. She was cleaned up and seemed more like her self.

“They have a tooth brush in that bathroom. I have never stayed in place that gave people a complementary tooth bush. I’m luck if they have soap.” She grinned to her self and pulled at a bunch of grapes.

“Sorry I guess I was a little hungry” she said and grinned again then she stopped and almost started to cry but managed to push back the urge. Lex assumed she allowed herself to feel normal for a moment and then stopped because she was still grieving.

“Leave me something. I’ll just be a minute in the bathroom” Lex headed to the bathroom and rushed through his shower then came back to find her still eating. He was a little self conscious since he was only wearing the pants. He didn’t think far enough ahead about a shirt and his chest was just out there for her to see.

He sat to eat with Chloe. He tried to make small talk but she just didn’t seem into it so they mostly sat in silence. “I’m ready for bed.” She said with resolve and walked over to the bed.

Lex watched her and prepared to make him self comfortable on the sofa. “What are you doing” Chloe said tuning back to him. “The bed is enormous you don’t have to sleep on the sofa.”

Lex wanted to leap up at her but he stood slowly. He got a full few of her in the pajamas. He choose green since he liked the way it enhanced the color of her eyes. She wasn’t wearing a bra and he tried to keep his eyes off her breasts. The satin clung to her hips he could see her shape. When he focused on her face it was refreshed and her hair that she seemed to be growing out was tucked behind each ear. He was getting aroused again just looking at her knowing he was about to sleep next to her.

“I have to take care of something I will be right there” He ran to bathroom he had to jerk off. He couldn’t get in the bed with her aroused. He wasn’t there for that she needed him to be there to comfort her. He closed and locked the door, pulled out his hard cock and started to pump away.

He closed his eyes and let his mind wonder to Chloe’s body in the pajamas. Her turning to him in the middle of the night and kissing him. Straddling him and undressing.

He could feel her rubbing against his chest with her breast as she reached down and kissed him again. He imaged reaching for her clit and rubbing it hearing her moan. He felt her pulling down his pants. He pumped at himself faster at every thought of getting to touch Chloe or her touching him.

He felt how wet she became under his touch when she sheathed his cock filling her up and her riding him wildly. He heard her yelling his name screaming out in pleasure. He thought of grabbing at her thighs pushing up in to her thrust.

He closed his eyes tighter when he felt her contracting around his cock coming then falling over on his chest and whispering in is ear “I love you Lex.”. The thought of her saying what he wanted to hear made him come and he bit down on his lip and tried not to say her name a loud.

He cleaned up and pulled himself together. Now he could be what she needed. He walked out and saw Chloe already a sleep. He turned the lights off and got into the bed. She must have felt the bed shift because she tuned to him and buried her face into his side flinging her arm around him.

Lex froze in place. She was cuddling. He didn’t cuddle but Chloe’s soft arm clinging to him made him feel that warmth again. He felt her face was little damp. She must have been crying again when he was in the bathroom. He felt guiltily for being so aroused and not thinking of Chloe’s pain.

He placed his arm around her and pulled her close to him. He held her and tried to be the friend that she needed.

She had invited him into her life to do this and it made him feel like there was hope for them. That she had some feelings for him too.

Chapter 6
Passing the time (Chloe POV)

“Lois keep your end straight!” Chloe was attempting to push the freight elevator doors open while yelling at Lois and not losing half the boxes loaded on the cart.

Chloe and Lois were covered with sweat and aching from moving things into Chloe’s new apartment in Metropolis.

“I have my end. Just push already!” Lois grunted and started to guide the cart while walking backwards towards Chloe’s door. “Why didn’t you hire a mover or call Clark over here to do this” Lois whinnied then wiped sweat from her brow.

“I did call Clark. He’s busy. I didn’t want to waste money on movers. So it’s me and you cuz."

“You have the money now. It’s not a waste just look at all the stuff you have” Lois now at the door swinging it open pointing to all the boxes scattered around the apartment.

“Well at least I had people move the furniture in. I didn’t think moving a few boxes would be too much of a challenge. Apparently I underestimated how much stuff I own.” Chloe gave the cart one last push, closed the door, and started to unload it.

Chloe did have the money now to hire movers but she just couldn’t justify something she could do her self. Her father left her a large sum of money. She had no idea that he took out the accidental insurance on himself. After they almost got blown to bits before Lionel’s trial her father started to talk more about making sure she was secure for the future.

She had no clue that meant he took out a pricey life insurance policy. She had even less of a clue what to do with the money and she would have given it back in a heartbeat to have her father with her again. She received lots of advice as to what to do with the money and of course Lex suggested advisors and bankers to help her with the money.

She decided to set aside money to pay for her four years at Met U then get a two bedroom apartment near school and avoid dorm living. She also invested some of it according to advisors and put some towards the relief fund to rebuild Smallville even though it was a joke compared to what Luthor Corp contributed. It was a well maneuvered play for Lex looking to get into politics.

She also invested into looking for her mother. She asked her advisor to keep that confidential. Now that her father was gone Chloe wanted to find her mother more then anything. She just wasn’t ready to include in anyone in her search until she had some kind of evidence.

Lois and Chloe finally unloaded the cart and they both fell out on to the sofa exhausted.

Lois let out a harsh breath and started to complain again “Ok Clark was so busy then why didn’t you ask Lex to help move. He has been hanging around you enough. Besides aren’t you sad to be missing out on the college dorm experience.”

Chloe gave Lois and irritated face and made her way pass boxes to the kitchen for a bottle of water from the fridge. Lois followed suit and grab one for her self.

“You’re going to suggest that I put up with a roommate I don’t know, late night parties, and a room so tiny I could barley fit my cloths in let alone sleep in.” Chloe took a sip of her water and continued “I can’t believe you are supporting the college dorm experience after what happen to you.” Chloe took another sip of water and headed back to the sofa.

“Will what about Lex? You never answered my question. Why didn’t he volunteer to help?” Lois followed her back to the living room.

Chloe did get offered help from Lex but declined. She was depending on him too much. She was allowing her self only so much attention from Lex even though she really enjoyed his company. She didn’t want a repeat of the summer she spent in hiding depending solely on Lex’s attention.

He never seemed to hesitate to help her if she needed. It had been two months since her father was buried and the first few weeks after his death she found herself crying every day.

Anything could trigger it a memory, a picture, a joke that she told that she knew was his, anything that reminded her of her father brought tears to her eyes at the drop of a hat. Lois was doing the best she could to help but sometimes Chloe found her self wanting Lex to be with her.

Now that she was dealing with things better and getting her life back in order she kept Lex at a distance. She just didn’t fully trust Lex after what happened in the cave. She wanted to try and understand his motives but Lex changed the subject whenever she tried to talk about it.

“Lex was busy.” Chloe lied to Lois.

“Well that’s odd he’s always around and calling you. I wouldn’t be surprised if he showed up right now.“ Lois didn’t give Chloe a chance to counter she placed her bottle of water on top of a near by box and headed to the bathroom.

Lex did call and often asking after her and would stop by anytime she asked him to. He would hold her if she was crying or just sit with her if she need someone.

He tried to include himself in her life again but Chloe just didn’t deal with his feelings after her father’s death. She asked him if they could just try to rebuild their friendship and trust in one another. So they settled back into their friendship and Lex didn’t push the issue of him being in love with her.

Chloe didn’t complicate things with any more late night sleepovers. She thought of the sleepover often. He held her all night and when she woke up he was sound asleep. She never saw him so peaceful. She was warm against his chest and it felt right. She had spent nights alone together with Lex when she was in hiding but never the entire night in the same bed holding each other.

Lex and Lois were the only people there for her when her father died. Lana and Clark were no help right now they were both so busy looking for a spaceship that landed during the meteor shower. Lana was trying to find it and Clark wanted to hide it before she found it. Both of them claiming Lex took it.

Lana keep telling her that Lex would just use her. Chloe could care less what Lana thought of Lex she was on Clark’s side now that they were together. Something happened with Clark and Lex. Their friendship seemed to be broken without any signs that it could be repaired.

Lana claimed Lex told one too many lies and just couldn’t be trusted anymore. Little did she know that her loving boyfriend was lying to her too about being from another planet and having abilities no human man could ever have.

So Chloe didn’t think Lana was the best source but she knew something was going on with Lex that surrounded that day in the caves that he never wanted to tell her about. Chloe wasn’t any better she was concealing the truth about Clark’s involvement in the cave as well.

Chloe knew she was in love with Lex after the summer they spent together but he pushed her away and she pushed that love so far back that she didn’t think it was real anymore. She was living in denial that she didn’t still loved him back and the more time she spent with him the weaker all her well thought-out arguments crumpled.

Just as Lois was exiting the bathroom her house phone went off.

“Who could that be?” Chloe said huffing putting her bottle of water down and getting off the sofa to get the phone.

“I put my money on Lex.” Lois said sitting back down on the sofa grinning to her self.

Chloe knew Lois didn’t like Lex hanging around her so much but Chloe wasn’t ready to explain to Lois yet what it was about Lex that she wanted around since she wasn’t sure why her self. She assumed it was Clark coming by at the last minute to help.

“Where is the damn thing” Chloe said pushing boxes aside until she finally found the phone. She picked up the cordless and saw on the caller ID that it was the lobby. “Hello.” She sighed into the receiver really not ready for guest.

“You sound tried. I told you to hire movers or let me help you” It was Lex being bossy as usually.

“Well I’m done now. I just have to unpack. Is there a particular reason why you stopped by?” Chloe was kind happy it was Lex and not Clark but she tried not to let Lex know that.

“Buzz me up and I will tell you why I stopped by” Lex said.

Chloe pushed zero on the phone and put the phone back on the base. Chloe was trying not to smile and hide that she was a little excited Lex had come by.

Lois looked at Chloe and her face shifted she could see right through her “It is Lex. I knew it. Well that is my cue to leave.” Lois jerked up from the sofa and made her way to the door.

“Why do you run away whenever he is around?” Chloe was irritate that Lois just couldn’t try to get along with Lex. He’d been so helpful lately and she didn’t give him and inch. Chloe pushed pass the boxes making her way to stop Lois from leaving.

“I don’t trust him. Especially after what he did to you during the meteor shower and you shouldn’t trust him either. I know you have some history with Lex that I don’t understand but I don’t think his motives are at all noble when it comes to you.“ Lois gave Chloe a hug and headed for the door. “Just be careful and try not to fall for the bossy billionaire. I will see you tomorrow and we can get started on these boxes.”

Lois opened the door and Lex was standing there “She’s all yours” Lois said swaying her arms welcoming Lex in then walked out pass him.

Lex came in and closed the door. “She never stops hating me?”

Chloe motioned for him to have a seat on the sofa “Lois is very set in her ways when it comes to some people.” Chloe sat down on the sofa and Lex positioned him self far on the other side of her. He seemed to distance him self from her physical unless she was crying in to his chest.

“How are you doing today?” Chloe scanned Lex’s face he always looked so concerned like she would start crying the minute she saw him. Chloe groaned a little in her throat she was getting tired of people asking her that. They meant well but she wanted to be treated like Chloe not Chloe falling apart.

“You know you don’t have to ask me that everyday. I think I have been handling things a lot better the past few weeks.”

She shifted in her seat and tried to rub her back. Moving was no easy task and she was really feeling the pain now.

“Here I thought I was being polite.” His tone was dripping with sarcasm. “I see you managed to move everything and now you are in a great deal of pain.” He gestured at her as she tried to rub her own shoulders and get some relief.

Chloe stop shifting about tried to sit still and relax her muscles. “Don’t start again with why I didn’t hire a mover. Everything is in here now. You said that you would tell me why you stopped by if I let you in now why did you?” Chloe took a moment to try and smell her self with out Lex noticing.

She didn’t think about it before but he must smell awful after running around moving on a hot summer day. After he told her he loved her even though they were working on being friends she always felt like checking things like that. Was her hair just right, did her breath smell, and now how did she smell? His staring at her didn’t help her self conscious about the matter.

“I did come to help but since you are done let me buy you dinner.” Lex reached for her “Turn around let me see what I can do”

Chloe turned her back to him and his hands started to rub over her shoulders. She was wearing a tank top and he pushed his hands under the straps and rub over her bare skin.

“Dinner would be nice.” Chloe was in a daze his hands felt good on her aching muscles. She closed her eyes and let him do his magic. “That feels great” She let out a low moan.

Lex shifted his hand to her lower back and Chloe let out another moan. He went back to her shoulders and rubbed at her tight muscles. Chloe couldn’t help but moan again it felt fantastic.

Then just as it was getting good she felt nothing. He stopped.

“Where is your bathroom?” He jumped up and starting walking down the hallway.

“It’s the second door on the right down the hall” she said a little disappointed that he stop the massage.

Several minutes past and Lex still hadn’t come back out of the bathroom. So Chloe got up to check on him.

She knocked on the door shouting “Are you all right in there? The soap is in the little box on the counter if you are looking for it or it should be right on the counter Lois was just in there.”

He didn’t reply. She heard him shuffling around in there but he didn’t say anything “Lex are you still in there?” Then she heard the water to sink turn on and off then Lex opened the door.

“I’m fine I was looking for the soap.” He pushed pass her back to the sofa. “So you want to go out?”

Chloe knew something was up. He looked a little flushed and was breathing kind of a heavy when he exited the bathroom. “Are you sure that you are ok?”

“Yes Chloe I’m fine now do you want to go out or not?” He sounded like he was getting annoyed with her.

Chloe for some reason hadn’t seen Lex like this since the plane ride back to Smallville when he told her he loved her and had to run to the bathroom after they kissed.

Chloe put it together and her eyes shifted up in surprise. “Lex what did you do in the bathroom?” she tried to make it sound like a legitimate question even though she knew the answer.

Lex shifted his head to the floor. He was acting like a little boy in trouble. He lifted his head and squinted his face and his voice was mocking her question “I went to the bathroom. What do mean what did I do in there?”

Chloe knew something was wrong now he started shifting in his seat. “Lex just tell me what you did in there. I know something is up.” She tried to sit closer to him.

Lex got up from the sofa and moved to the door “Are we going out?” he tried changing the subject.

Chloe was getting a little annoyed. “Did touching me just now…you know… arouse you?” She walked towards Lex.

He tried to maneuver around the boxes and get away from her. “Chloe that is not important. Do you want to eat or not?” he was up set she could see it in his face.

“Lex just tell me? I want to know?” she kept approaching him.

It was like they were dancing around the boxes in the living room. She was leading every time she went forward he went back.

“Nothing happened. Let it go.” He backed up into the kitchen and rested his back on the counter in front of the sink.

Chloe was sure she knew what he did in there she just wanted him to admitted it. “Lex if you were masturbating just tell me.”

His face got red he press his lips together tightly like he was holding back what he really wanted to say. “It doesn’t matter. I’m here to be your friend. Now just drop this please.” he tried getting around her but Chloe positioned her self so if wanted to move then he would have to move her.

“Lex …” Chloe was about to go on and her phone rang again.

She went for the phone again this time remembering where it was leaving Lex in the kitchen probably relieved that the conversation was interrupted. She saw it was the lobby again and assumed it was Lois coming back “Lois what is it now?”

“It’s Clark not Lois. I’m I to late are you moved in.” Clark’s voice was cheerful. Chloe mentioned to him that he should just be him self and stop worrying if she was ok but he was over doing.

Lex was now standing in front of her waiting to hear who it was. She turned her back to him knowing if he knew it was Clark he would get pissed of and leave immediately.

“I’m done now. I could have used you two hours ago but you are too late now.” She tried shielding her voice from Lex with her hand.

“Well buzz me up. I want to make sure you are doing alright.”

Chloe let out another groan at the same thought Lex had when he got here. She was doing better besides she wanted to talk to Lex about what just happen. Chloe wanted to have the talk they should have had months ago. She tried to get rid of Clark “I am fine. So I’ll call you in a few days.”

“Ok you know I can run over here literally any time you need me.” Clark hung up and Chloe let out a sigh that he didn’t press the issue of coming up.

She turned back to Lex now sitting on the sofa. “That was Clark wasn’t?” he sounded pissed off.

“It was Clark. I guess he had the same idea as you and wanted to help move me in. Now can we get back to what we were talking about?”

Lex shifted in his seat. She knew he didn’t want to talk about it but she wanted to understand his attraction to her. She wanted to talk about all those things they seem to push out of the way to deal with her grief.

“So Clark calls you often?” he was trying to change the subject again.

“No more then normal I guess. Now stop changing the subject.” Chloe was tried and was trying to keep things on track. “What aroused you just now?”

“So what would you say would be the normal about that Clark calls” Lex tried to divert the conversation in his on way.

Chloe let out a groan. “Lex stop changing the subject. Clark and I are friends you know that now let’s get back to the subject at hand you jerking off in my bathroom!”

“I want to talk about you and Clark. You seem to insist on being his friend. I just don’t see how you justify being friends with me and friends with him.” Lex jumped up out his seat as his anger started to boil over.

“I want to talk about what just happen. If you want to continue with this dead issue then you can go!” Chloe was to tried to have a fight with Lex and if he wasn’t going to talk about what just happen then she didn’t want him around.

“Fine you can call your best friend Clark back.” He stormed off pass the boxes out the door without another word.

Chloe was so frustrated. She had to know what Lex was thinking. She knew she had been avoiding the talk for to long. If he could get aroused from a little back rub then his feelings must be strong.

She had to look at her own feelings too. She had to admit that Lex being aroused by her just now made her feel warm and tingly at a certain spot between her legs.

When it rains… (Lex POV)

[Ann]

Great part! Poor Lex. Getting so aroused from simply rubbing her shoulders must be hell for him. And Chloe's curiosity being so peaked tells me that her feelings are just as strong as his are. Please post more soon.

[hfce]

I feel so bad for Lex. ;) I wish Chloe would give in already. :D


Hope :)

[Skye]

Just give in, Chloe!!! teehee!!

Chapter 7
When it rains… (Lex POV)

“Damn it!” Lex was yelling at him self as he got into his in Porsche leaving the parking garage at Chloe’s apartment.

“Why can’t I control my damn penis?” he yelled again and started to drive back to the mansion in Smallville.

He went to Chloe’s with the best of intentions but of course he had to touch her. Of course he had to massage her aching shoulders. Of course he had to feel under her shirt and touch her soft skin.

Of course her moaning made is body react and by the second one he was completely erect. He tried to get rid of his lust but of course she saw right though him when he exited the bathroom.

He was trying to be her friend. Trying to keep his love for her at the back of his mind and be there for her while she grieved but his body just didn’t seem to get it. He wanted Chloe so much sometimes he thought his inside would burst into flames whenever she looked at him.

Lex spent the last two months trying gauge if Chloe had any of the feelings that he did. There was nothing. Not even hint that she was interested in anything other then friendship. She asked him to be friends and he regretted his agreement but he had to keep her in his life.

Lex drove home and tried not to think of the fight he just picked with Chloe. He hated Clark and hated him even more for calling Chloe. He hated that she was in love with him for so long. Clark was insane not to want her.

He felt Clark ruined their friendship with his lies and Chloe should side with him not Clark but she claimed they both need to get over themselves and try to be friends again. He really just used his hate to avoid her wanting to talk about his body’s refusal to listen to him.

Lex never wanted to talk about it. She rejected him and he wasn’t about to be rejected again. She didn’t love him the way he loved her or she was too scared to. He accepted that. He was trying to play the good friend. He wanted Chloe in his life and was taking what he could get.

Lex walked into his study for a drink to calm his nerves. He saw someone he just didn’t want to talk to right now waiting for him.

“What is it now Lana?” Lex walked right pass her toward is goal of tall glass of scotch.

“Lex you know why I’m here.” She followed behind him like a lost puppy.

Lex knew what she wanted. It wasn’t the first time she stopped by since the meteor shower. She wanted to accuse him some more about taking the space ship.

He did take it but wasn’t about to let her know where it was. He had no more use for Lana and after his fight with Chloe he didn’t want her anywhere near him.

“Lana I’m really not in the mood for this. So just tell me what you want” Lex kept his voice as cold as possible. He poured his drink and sat down on the sofa. Lana followed with her hands high on her hips trying to intimidate him.

“Lex have you told Chloe my secret yet?” She was staring him down.

This was new and Lex’s eyes shifted up at the question. Lex did hide Genevieve Teague’s murder for Lana. He had to get the element and was welling to do anything to get it. He wasn’t about to tell Chloe it would just lead to more questions.

“No, I haven’t said anything to anyone Lana. Now that you know you can leave.” Lex hoped she get it though her thick head that he wanted her gone. He had no such luck.

“Thank you. I really hope you plan on keeping that secret for me, especially from Chloe and Clark.” Lana kept her stance in an unimpressive attempt to intimidate him “Now I want to talk to you about the space ship.” Lana sat down in the chair adjacent to him.

“Look Lana how many time do I have to tell you there was nothing out there. You were delusional. Now stop coming by here accusing me of things.” Lex stood up to walk out of the study. If she wasn’t going to leave then he was.

“Why are spending so much time with Chloe?” Lana said trying to keep the conversation going. He didn’t answer he just left the room.

Lex sat on his bed and groaned. Lana was truly a pain in the ass he wished he never had dealt with at all. He lied back in his bed and tried to relax. Today was not at all what he wanted it to be.

Before stopping by Chloe’s he was at warehouse 15 trying to get his scientist to open the damn space ship. It had been two months and they were completely useless in getting the job done.

He wanted to call Chloe. He wanted her there with him now. He closed his eyes and pictured her face, but just as he was getting relaxed his cell phone went off.

He looked at the caller ID and saw it was the doctor from Belle Reve. He answered it hoping they finally had some news about his father. Something happened to him when he had possession of the element.

The doctors at Belle Reve were just as useless in figuring out what was wrong his father as the scientist working on the space ship. He was hoping Lionel would come to and tell him something that would help him piece together what happen during the meteor shower. ”Has he come out if yet?”

“Yes Mr. Luthor your father has come to. He wants to be release immediately. He’s asking for you” the doctor sounded concerned.

“Don’t let him leave. I’m on my way.” Lex hung the phone and started to leave.

He was at the front door when his phone rang again. He checked the caller ID it was Chloe. He froze in place. He didn’t want to get back into the same discussion again about his lack of self control. He answered anyway he wanted to hear her voice. “Hello Chloe”

“Lex I really think we need to talk about something’s.” She sounded so calm like they didn’t just fight.

“Talk about what things?” he replied sounding confused.

“I want to talk about what we should have talked about on the jet but other things got in the way of that. I know something happened today with you in the bathroom and you don’t want to admit it. I just want to start talking and stop avoiding things” She laid it out to him.

Lex didn’t want to talk about it. He wasn’t looking forward to being rejected and not getting what he really wanted. He didn’t want to hear how she wasn’t in love with. How she didn’t fully trust him. He didn’t want her gone completely and just wanted things to stay friendly.

“I can’t talk about it now Chloe. My father has woken up and I have to get to him.”

“It’s ok Lex. I whenever you are ready. I know you need to get to your father and find out what happen to him. I just wanted you to know.” Chloe hung up the phone.

Lex pushed back what she had to say. He needed to focus on his father. He had to know what happen to him.

***
Lex made it to Belle Reve in no time. He was greeted at the door by the doctor. “Has he told you anything yet.” He made his way down the hall and doctor tried to keep up.

“Mr. Luthor he has no memory of being in the state that he was in. Sir he is just really angry that he is here and wants to get out as soon as possible.” The doctor opened the door to his office with his father sitting waiting for him.

He had the worst look on his face. “Finally! Get me the hell out of here Lex.” He said getting up to leave.

“Wait. You don’t know what happened dad?” Lex stopped him from exiting the room.

Lionel pushed pass him “No I don’t the last I thing I remember was being in the study talking to you then I was here in a cell in a straight jacket.”

Lex followed after him trying to get him to slow down by heading him off “You had the element in your suit pocket dad. You lied to me.” Lex was getting impatient.

Lionel paused and shook it off that he lied to Lex again. It was common practice and he didn’t even act as if he felt bad about it. “Yes I had the stone! Now where is it? What happen to it?”

“Dad you have no clue what happen to you?” Lex grabbed at his shoulders.

“No! If I knew then I wouldn’t have been so surprised to be in a straight jacket and find out that I have been in some sort of trace for months. Lex don’t ask me foolish questions. Just get me out of here. You could try to answer my question since it was legitimate unlike your last one.” Lionel jerked away from Lex and walked down the corridor.

It appeared that he wasn’t going to be helpful in finding out more about the cave, the stones, the meteor shower, and most of all Clark’s secret.

He sighed and started to walk out with Lionel. “The element was taken. I don’t know what happen to it” Lex sighed again he wished that was a lie and he did know where it was.

Lionel didn’t press the subject for now. He just wanted out and followed Lex to his car.

Lex was at a dead end again. He didn’t know what happen to the stones; he couldn’t get the damn spaceship open, finding out Clark’s secret seemed further out of reach then ever, now his father was back and no help at all.

The worst part of the day was he felt he was losing the battle to keep Chloe in his life. As soon as they had the talk she wanted he knew she would be out of his life again. He was convinced she didn’t love him the way he loved her.

The talk she wanted to have would be about her wanting her to distance him self from her because he couldn’t control his urges. He would try to avoid that talk for as long as he could. He needed to keep her as his friend she was the only one he had.

Chapter 8
Push the right button (Chloe POV)

It was now two months since Chloe told Lex that she wanted to start talking about what was going on with him and her in their relationship.

Chloe was a mess without her father and assumed things were getting better but she was just repressing things. She started seeing the Met U counselor and it was really helping her work through the loss.

The first semester at Met U started a few weeks ago and things were going well. She was headlining a column at the Met U paper.

She also set aside a small amount of the insurance money for writing a series of investigative novels. Her first try was to put her research about the freaky things that happened in Smallville.

Sometimes she felt guiltily for moving on with her life after her father’s death but he wouldn’t have wanted her to just grieve and not achieve her goals. Chloe tried keeping that in mind whenever she felt like her life was getting good and she shouldn’t be happy since her father wasn’t there to share it. She still wanted to make him proud and was doing her best to make sure she did.

She was letting herself start to enjoy her life out of Smallville without her father. She had tons of work that she loved. Lois was a steady for a girl’s night out but Lex was avoiding their talk.

He was still trying to be just her friend. He stopped looking at her he stopped touching her he stopped running to the bathroom. Lex was doing his best to just be friends forever she assumed. Chloe didn’t push the subject on him she tried being friends knowing she did initial reject him and he might me a little gun shy.

He would come by or they would go to diner but whenever she bought it up he would avoid it or run away. She couldn’t take it anymore. She wanted more.

She wanted to talk to Lex and see if he was still feeling the same way. She wanted to kiss him again and see if all that passion for her was still there after four months. She wanted to talk him at last about her growing feelings. Chloe was allowing her feelings to surface. She was in love with Lex and felt it was about time she started acting like it.

Chloe hadn’t seen Lex in a week since he was busy with work and gave her some time to get into the rhythm of her first few days of classes. She was home in her second bed room that she made into an office. The walls covered in potential leads and freaky events.

She was at her desk working on a chapter for the book when her cell phone rang. It was Lex calling. “Hello stranger. I haven’t heard from you in awhile."

“I know that’s why I called but if you are busy I’ll call some other time” Lex sounded really sorry that he was so busy with work and not seen her.

“No, not too busy. My social life is centered on Lois and you these days. Since Lois is busy. That just leaves you. Why did you call?”

“I was hoping to see you tonight. If you wanted to have dinner but seeing as how it is way pass the time for any sane person to have dinner maybe desserts would be a better idea.” She could hear Lex shuffling around on the other end of phone again.

“What are you doing?” she said in a confused voice.

“I’m organizing my desk. I hate to leave work and have papers all over the place. I need to have some order.” He replied still shuffling away.

“Right you always have to be in control” she wished she could take that back. Lex had to maintain a certain level of control in his line work. He also seemed to want maintain that same level of control when it came to her. When he opened up to her on the jet Chloe knew she wasn’t as open to his feeling and now he had shut them off to maintain control.

She tried to shrug off the statement “Anyway I would love to have dessert.” She said trying to control her excitement at seeing Lex.

“I can pick you up in about half and hour. I would really like to go home if you don’t mind leaving Metropolis for a few hours. I promise to take you home whenever you are ready to go.” He was kind of begging a little.

Chloe thought there was no need she wasn’t going to say no “Yes please come and get me. Save me from a night of writing.”

Chloe hung up the phone and attempted to change her cloths. She pulled out a black top with a plunging neck line and a grey skirt. She put on her flat black shoes with the tiny heel in the back. She attempted to tame her hair finding the pen she put there while working at her desk. She added a little make up then checked herself out in the mirror.

She had no clue what Lex saw that was his type in her. He was into the model shape and brunettes and Chloe with blonde hair and curvy hips was a far cry from that.

She didn’t dwell on it and concluded that she was beautiful and why wouldn’t any man even Lex find her attractive. She remembered her father told that she would find love one day and he would love all of not just her body.

Lex picked her up in exactly a half and hour. They arrived at the mansion and Chloe settled into the study like she lived there since she was there so often. Chloe wanted to spend more and more time with Lex and he never seemed to want her to leave if she was around. She wanted thing to progress to the next step. She still had her questions but the way things were going he would never say anything. She had to start pushing the right buttons to get things going.

“I told the cook to leave something for us I’ll get it” he said and head out to the kitchen.

Chloe pulled off her shoes and sprawled out on her stomach on the sofa.

Lex came back with two slices of riches chocolate cake she had ever seen. “I hope you like chocolate.” Lex scanned over her taking over the sofa and gave her an aggravated look “Can I sit here too?”

Chloe sighed and push back giving him room. She was still lying down but her legs were bent at the knee and she tried to keep her skirt down. Lex sat and handed her the plate.

“You know I love desserts there is no need to ask me if I do” her eyes widen as he handed her the plate.

She grabbed the fork and dug into it. She moaned at the first taste of it and closed her eyes and kicked her legs back and forth. When she opened them Lex was staring at her.

“So it’s safe to say you like it?” then he grinned and went on to start eating his piece.

They ate their dessert and Chloe talked about her current assignment for the paper. Lex listened and tried to keep up with the conversation but every time Chloe took a bite of cake his eyes seem to focus on her mouth or he would look at her exposed legs kicking back and forth. It was getting Chloe a little aroused that he was so intrigued by her.

When they finished Lex took their plates back to the kitchen and returned with coffee. “The last time you argued with me about offering you brandy with dessert so I thought coffee was a better choice this time.” Lex gave Chloe his sly smile and left her with the coffee and went to the bar.

Chloe felt it was good any time as any to start pushing buttons.

“Lex do you…still…Are you…” Chloe was struggling to start. She didn’t want to make this into a fight.

Lex sat next to Chloe and looked deeply into her eyes. Chloe got a little bit of chill from the look.

“If you are trying to ask me if I still love you the answer is yes. I understand that we are just friends. I want to be in your life and if friendship is the only way then I’m going to take” Lex finished and signed then turned away from Chloe.

She couldn’t believe what he just said. Past few months he avoided this topic. “Lex if you still love me then why don’t you say it or do something about it? I told you that we can talk about this whenever you are ready but you keep avoiding it” she said trying to stay calm.

“What would be the point. I couldn’t do anything at first your father passed away and you needed a friend not me lusting after you so I tried to be that for you. Now we are friends I accept that so let’s just drop this and try to enjoy the rest of the evening” Lex stood up and walked away from her. It was like the conversation was getting to be too much for him.

“I understand that Lex but I have been fine for months now and you haven’t said a word.” She tried to stand next to him but he just walked away.

“Chloe you don’t love me. Why would I put my self out there again? So you can reject me and start crying. I can’t take that. My kisses make you ill and my feelings make you cry or worst just make you anger. You can’t handle the thought of me really loving you so why go down that rode.” Lex started rubbing his forehead trying to gain his composer.

Chloe was getting heated. She didn’t want to fight but she hated that he didn’t think she could handle things. “I’m sorry my reaction wasn’t what you wanted but I was scared. No one has ever loved me expect my father and he is gone now. I have done my best to put my life back together now. I owe a lot of that to you, but I’m not a child I can take on more then you know. Why can’t I feel different about us and want things to progress!”

“Chloe you don’t love me so let’s just drop this!” Lex turned to her standing right next to him.

“You don’t know that!” Chloe was breathing heavy now she was pissed that he assumed he knew her feelings. “You don’t know what I feel Lex. It’s not just about you getting hurt. I was hurt to when just dumped on me last year. Do have to have control of everything? Why can’t things change? If you love me so much why don’t you do something about it?” Chloe pushed herself close to Lex’s face.

“Stop this. I have expected that we are just friends. You don’t want me to do something Chloe. If I started….Your not ready…Just back off!” he yelled at the top of lungs trying to push pass her and went over to his desk.

“Don’t walk away from me. I will decide what I’m ready for Lex. If there is something you want then why don’t you just take it.” Chloe was back in his face.

She backed him up his back side pushing into the desk. She was so angry that he wanted to control everything. That Lex didn’t think she could handle more from him.

“Chloe back off!” Lex yelled again breathing just has hard as she was.

“Make me!” she said taunting him so close she knew he could feel her breath on his face.

“Don’t do this! Just back off!” he yelled again.

Chloe pushed so close to Lex that her breasts were rubbing against his chest and she raised her head as high as she could to meet his lips. “I said make me” she challenged him again.

Lex groaned and grabbed her arms and turned her around pushing her into the desk. He pushed his pelvis into her. She felt that he was hard and he started to yell at her again.

“Is this what you want? For me to act? Then this is what you will get Chloe. You think I want to control everything? I’m completely out of control!” He let her go of one of her arms and ran his hand over it, he shifted it up to her neck to her face and started rubbing over a lips and then rested on her check. Chloe was shivering he was touching so softly.

Lex started to speak again his voice softer almost a whisper “Every time I see you, hear your voice, catch a hint of your scent I lose control. I want you to want me that much but you don’t but if you are telling me that you’re ready then this is what you will get.”

Lex pushed his erection into her. Chloe couldn’t move. She had never seen him like this. He his eyes were devouring her. She felt that tingle between her legs again. “If I’m what you want so much do something about it. I told I’m ready for use to move to the next step!” Chloe roared back at him pushing against him feeling his firm chest through his dress shirt.

He still held on to her with one hand and the other on her cheek ran down her body slipping under her skirt. He started to rub her over her panties. Chloe started moaning in responds. If the table wasn’t behind her she would have fallen from the sensation.

“Lex…Ahhh…” she was trying to talk put couldn’t all she could do was feel. She felt Lex’s hand on her under skirt on a panties rubbing against her, she felt his breath on her neck close to her ear, she felt heat radiating off of him.

He spoke in same soft voice in to her ear “Do you want me to stop? This is what I want Chloe. If it’s not what you want then tell me to stop” Then he was tugging on her ear.

Chloe squealed a little it was weirdest sound she ever made. “No…Don’t stop..” she managed to say out of breath. So Lex slipped his hand under her panties and slipped one finger inside her feeling how wet she had gotten and started to pump in and out of her.

“Oh…Lex…That feels good” she grabbed on to his shoulders. Lex was breathing heavily now just watching her enjoying that she was losing control.

He lowered his lips to her neck and started kissing it lightly then nibbling at. She was so wet now he slipped a second finger in with the first and shifted them so his thumb was pushing into her clit.

“AHHH…” was the only thing Chloe could say. She felt something burn in her and she never got this feeling unless she was using her own hand nor did she feel it so quickly.

She felt her skin was catching on fire. Her nipples were fully erect and brushing against Lex’s chest. He pushed into her into the desk to give her something to lean against and Chloe but one had behind her tried to brace her self.

She was going to come. Lex was going to make her come and she wanted it. She didn’t want this moment to end she wanted him to please her like this. She didn’t think about the secrets or reason why they shouldn’t be together she just wanted him to touch her like this. She wanted him to show her that he still wanted her as much as he did the day on the jet.

“Are you going to come. What do you need?” Lex was breathing into her ear again then went back to work on her neck with lips. His hand holding her arm slid over and started caressing her breast over her shirt. He was starting to sweat and his breathing was erratic.

All these new sensation were just too much for Chloe. She wanted him to be kissing her but she didn’t know how to get his attention to her face. “Lex..k…kis..kiss!” she managed.

He understood and started to kiss her. His lips attacked her. It was more passionate then the first time. She opened her mouth for him and he slipped his tongue in and started flicking it around hers. She started grinding her pelvis in to his pushes in her and Lex pumped his fingers in her faster slipping in and out of her with easy and he used his thumb pushing into her clit with more pressure.

Chloe’s orgasm was brimming at the surface. Lex pulled his fingers out and put all the attention on her clit rubbing at it franticly. Chloe couldn’t take it. She pulled out of the kissed and let out a loud cry.

“God you so beautiful Chloe.” Lex was staring at her as he pleased her. He lowered his lips back to her neck and kissed down to her cleavage burying him self in her chest.

Chloe wanted his fingers back in her and she clawed at his shoulders trying to get him understand unable to say anything just moaning and panting. Lex some how got the point and pushed the two fingers back into her pumping into her.

Chloe pushed into him and came screaming out uncontrollably. Lex pushed his fingers back into her a few more times as she came clamping down on his finger. He pulled her close to him but kept his fingers in her slowly moving them in and out.

When the orgasm passed she was finally able to speak “Lex. My feelings are changing for you. I do want us to progress in our relationship. I want to start loving you back.” Chloe rushed through the last part afraid now for some reason to say it aloud.

Lex pulled his fingers out of her and took a step back. She saw him processing what she just said then he pulled her in to embrace.

“Chloe are you serious? Please don’t say it if you don’t mean it. I love you and that won’t change if this isn’t what you want but don’t say it if you don’t mean it” Lex said still pushing her to his chest.
.
Chloe let her mind swim. The last few months with Lex were so different then anything she had experience with other men. Clark was a big waste of time. Other men fell for her but somehow ended up trying to kill her. He was doing everything he could to be her friend again and keep her in his life. She was in love with Lex again probably never stopped since that summer.

She pulled back from Lex and met his blue-grey eyes with hers “I love you Lex.”

His face transformed. He looked happy. It was funny look on him Chloe thought.

“Chloe why didn’t you tell me? I thought you wanted to talk and turn me away again.” He pulled her back and had an out of character grin on his face.

“I was scared. You were gone all last year and I wasn’t sure of my feelings after my father died. Then we have spent so much time together I started feeling like I did love you but I didn’t think you did anymore since you hadn’t said anything about it since we were on the jet. I know I was a mess for so long but I knew you wouldn’t say anything” Chloe wrapped her arms around his shoulders. Before she couldn’t do anything but claw at him now she could hold Lex.

“I’m sorry I didn’t want to bring it up again. I didn’t want you to reject me again. I just wanted to keep it safe and just be friends. I wasn’t about to lose you again.” Lex pulled her up from the hug and kissed her again.

All the emotions he seemed to be holding in he put into the kiss that he gave her. He got lost in lingering over her lips then feeling his way in her mouth savoring every bit of it her.

Chloe had noticed while he was pleasing her but Lex’s erection was pushing into her. She pulled back from the kiss and said something that didn’t come out quite the way she wanted it to “I don’t want to have sex yet.”

He jerked her away from him with a confused look on his face “I don’t mean that I will never want to I just want to wait a little while. I want to keep building up trust between us but if you want me to help you with this I can.” Chloe reached her hand to rub him over his pants

Lex shut is eyes and let out a low moan. He was going to respond but he was enjoying it to much. Chloe didn’t even know what she was doing but it was having a huge effect on Lex.

She unzipped his pants and pushed them down along with his boxers and took him in to her hands “Lex you will have to tell me what you want. I don’t know how to do this.” She looked up at him and his eyes were closed. He reached his hand to guide her.

“You grasp it like this…” he moved her hand showing her how he wanted it.

She let his hand guide her and she pumped him ”Ahh Chloe…You can grab me a little tighter.” Lex said his breathing becoming more and more erratic. So Chloe grabbed him tighter and slide her hands up and down his length faster.

Lex was letting out low groans and his eyes opened fixing them on his cock with Chloe’s hand working him over. He moved his guiding hand and a tried to shift his stance so he could brace him self on the desk Chloe was standing behind.

Chloe moved and let Lex get his balance. “You can…go…faster” Lex tried to instruct her but Chloe could tell he was out of control. He must have been thinking about her touching him so long now that he couldn’t hold on.

Chloe quicken her pace and gripped him a little tighter “Ahh Fuck that’s right. Just like that. Fuck!” he grabbed at her shoulder with one hand and used the desk to balance him self with the other.

Chloe was just studying his face. He looked away from her at this point with his eyes closed. “Lex look at me. You can kiss me again if you want to” She was trying to get him to focus on her.

He didn’t move he just took what she was giving panting out fuck every time she lowered her hands on his shaft. “No can’t look to much…fuck…come if I look… fuck…It will be over…Fuck…this is good” he dug his fingers in her shoulder tighter.

Chloe reached her mouth up to his ear and whispered in it “I can do this for you again Lex. You don’t have to hold back. I love you remember.” she finished her say and then kissed the side of his mouth and he opened his eyes and meet hers.

“Ahhh…Chloe!” Lex nudging her back out of the way and tried to come into his hand that was gripping the desk. He wasn’t kidding when he said that he would come if he looked at her. Chloe pump him a few more times and smiled at him.

“So I guess it’s safe to say that you like that?” Chloe grinned to her self and released him.

“Yes its safe to say that” Lex said in a sarcastic tone and walked off to get some tissues. He went to bathroom and came back cleaned.

Chloe was sitting on the sofa and Lex sat next to her and pulled her close to him. “Do want to start seeing me seriously Chloe? I know you have more question but I want you to be sure.”

Chloe got a jolt of fear in her spine. Lex’s life was so complicated. He was looking into getting in to politics now and that was just going to make things even worse. Things with him and her other friends were so strained. He still had hundreds of secrets and Chloe had hers’.

She didn’t know if she could handle it all but she wasn’t willing to give up so easily “I should be asking you that question. The life of a college freshman is very tricky” Chloe grinned and looked at Lex getting lost in his eyes again.

“I just want you to be sure. Time could pass and you may realize that this isn’t what you want.” Lex said clutching her face in his hands.

“This is what I want Lex. Don’t try to tell me again you know what I want better then I do.” Chloe sounded offended but she was getting a warm feeling from Lex’s gaze on her.

He kissed her again. Chloe kissed back but her fear gave her another jolt as he lost him self in her lips.

She was afraid that things would end before they started but she didn’t want to let fear keep her from this but what if she couldn’t trust him? What if he never trusted her? What if his complicated life was just too much for her to handle? What if she lost Lex like her father? Chloe couldn’t let her fear get the best of her or it would ruin her life.

Just on a quick note, you may want to edit your last post. You accidentally double-posted.

Great parts! I am so glad that they're finally together and she finally told him how she feels about him. Maybe now he won't have to spend so much time in the bathroom. LOL!

I am curious to see if Lex and Clark will ever be able to fix their friendship and how their battle will effect Lex and Chloe's relationship. Please post more soon. :)

Chapter 9
More (Lex POV)

Lex woke up alone again. He was tried of waking up alone. Last night before he was left alone was the worst since he’d started becoming intimate with Chloe.

It was a Friday night and Chloe had come by the mansion to have dinner. They ate and agued mostly over a book Chloe just finished for class that Lex read years ago. After a lengthy fight over who knew what symbolized what better the evening lead to them making out on the sofa in the study.

Chloe was lying on the sofa and Lex was sprawled out on top of her with her blouse open and one of her breast pulled from her bra in his mouth nibbling away at her nipple enjoying every moment.

She had her hands on his groin rubbing away at his erection when she asked if they could go to the bedroom. Something she had never done. They were playing this little game for a month and half and she never asked to move to bedroom before. Lex wasn’t going to say no.

Some how they worked out of their cloths and got in the bed in the same position they had been in on the sofa. Lex was getting to touch her all over and see all things he only dreamed about.

She was naked, kissing him, she was dry humping his leg, he could feel how wet she was, and it seemed like she was ready for him. He wanted to be inside her but that didn’t matter she stopped him.

She asked for him put on condom. He didn’t hesitate and got one from the night stand and rolled it on. He positioned himself to enter her and she pulled away. She stopped him said no. She wasn’t ready for that step yet.

She was teasing him for a month and half and Lex couldn’t take it anymore. Things would get going and she would stop him. This time she initiated things, she asked to come to the bedroom, she asked him to put on the condom and then she pulled away. She didn’t even stay night.

He’d excuse him self to the bathroom or sometimes she offered to jerk him off. He was tried of coming this way. He was tried of getting her off with his hands. He wanted do something else use his mouth even better he wanted his cock swimming in her wetness.

Once again Lex reached down to grab his cock and pumped away at. He was use to masturbating everyday after, before, or during his time with Chloe. She just wasn’t ready to have sex with him yet. It’s not that she was a virgin. Lex knew she had sex with some boy named Jimmy. He hated that someone else had touch Chloe but he had to keep his jealously to him self.

He knew it just meant that she didn’t fully trust him yet. He was tried of explaining himself. He was wrong then but he was trying now to prove himself. He told her as much about his life that he could without letting her know too much that could hurt her or worse she would think it was a front page article for the Daily Planet.

He tried to explain about what happen during the meteor shower with out giving away key details. His plans for Lana and her killing Jason’s mother, the spaceship he was hiding, and knowing she knew more but lying to him about what happen in the cave. He attempted to keep these things hidden. He was trying and he seemed to be unable to hold anything else back expect theses few key details.

The worst part was her being ashamed of him and wanting to keep the fact that they were dating a secret. She didn’t think Clark, Lois, Lana or any of her new friends at Met U would understand that they were in love.

Lex thought that was bull shit. She was still afraid, didn’t trust him, and was to ashamed of him.

Lex was seeing her tonight. She was coming with him to a fundraiser. It would be the first event that she would attend with him. He wasn’t going to let her end the evening the same way again he wanted to know why she just couldn’t trust him.

Lex went though his day and tried to think of something other then Chloe. He tried to work but he just couldn’t find his focus.

He checked in on the spaceship nothing, he tried working on one of his oversees acquisitions no good; he attempted to have lunch not hungry.

All he could see was Chloe pulling away from him over and over again. He had to know what it was about him that was keeping her from completely committing to him.

He drove to her apartment in the middle of day without calling. He called from the lobby and demanded she buzz him in. She did and Lex got in the elevator getting more enraged the entire ride to the tenth floor.

He stood at her door and paused before he knocked. He thought about what he was doing. He was acting like a crazy boyfriend. He couldn’t believe how much she had changed him. She made him lose all sense of reason.

He knocked anyway.

She opened the door and looked shock to see him. “Lex! What are you doing here? I didn’t think I’d see you till tonight. Are you here to check my dress? I told you it was a surprise.” She stepped back and let him in.

She was wearing a red top with a low neck line and a pair of jeans. She didn’t have on any shoes and seemed relaxed.

“I need to talk to you. I couldn’t wait till tonight after last night.” He scanned the room.

Her lab top was out on the coffee table and papers were all over the place. She was obviously working on her book. He didn’t feel like he was interrupting her work because she had been invading his all morning.

“Lex what is wrong then. I thought you had to work nonstop until tonight?” Chloe walked into the kitchen to get a drink of water.

“Do you love me?” Lex said following behind her.

Chloe turned to him with a confused face “Where is this coming from? Did something happen?” she walked pass him to sit on the sofa.

“Just answer me?” Lex moved to stand in front of her. He was trying to control this conversation.

“Yes I love you. You know that” She was to speaking to him under breath like someone would hear her say she loved him.

Then he heard the toilet flush and out of the bathroom walked Clark Kent.

“I see you’re busy.” Lex’s rage was approaching its peak.

What hell was Clark doing here with his woman in the middle of the day? She refused to tell him what it was about Clark that Lex could never figure out. He knew it had something to do with the stones and what happened in the cave he just didn’t know how.

“Hello Clark.” he said trying not to sound so angry but he couldn't help it.

“Hello Lex.” Clark said then he walked over to Chloe. “Do you want me to leave? I know you guys are friends but this looks serious I can go if you want” he had his back to Lex.

“No, Clark you are helping me with my book. Lex just stop by to see how I was doing.” Chloe stood up and got between Clark and Lex sensing the tension between.

“Can I talk to you in the bedroom?” Lex made his way down to the end of the hall to the bedroom. He opened the door and the first thing he saw was the bed.

He saw it and his rage shot through the roof. He offered for her to stay with him over Thanksgiving break. If he couldn’t have sex with her he at least wanted to wake up with her, but she had yet to give him and answer.

Chloe followed but of course she had to say something to Clark before she left him in the living room “This will only take a second. I’m sure Lex has a lot of work to do. He just stopped by to make sure I was doing ok.”

Once she was in the room Lex slammed the door closed. “What the hell is he doing here? Why didn’t you tell me he was here once I got here?” Lex had lost his control. He came there with a plan and now Clark had thrown him off.

“Would you calm down? You demand I let you up then you started questioning me. I didn’t get a chance to tell you. Now that you know he is here what’s the big deal? Nothing is going on. Clark and I are friends. We have been seeing each for a months and half. You don’t own me Lex. You can’t tell me who I can and can not be friends with.” Chloe was staring him down.

Lex was in no mood for her to defend her friendship with Clark. “Look I didn’t come here to talk about Clark but now that he is here why are you still friends with him? He hates me? How can you be friends with him when he hates the person you are in love with? Does he even know we are dating now or your still telling everyone we are just friends?” Lex was breathing heavily. All the problems they had danced around were coming to there surface.

“Stop yelling he might hear you.” Chloe moved away from Lex to walk in to the closet and clicked on the light. Lex followed her in and closed the door.

Chloe looked at him with such disgust. “You coming over here is not about the party, or Clark, or if I love you or not, it’s about last night and you not getting to have sex with me yet.”

She saw right through him again. Lex groaned in frustration. He didn’t know how but she always saw right through is tactics. He had to leave and regain control. He had to get his control back.

“I don’t feel up to the fundraiser. I’ll leave you to deal with your friend” Lex finished the conversation with that and walked pass her out of the closet, out of the bedroom, pass Clark sitting in the living room, and out of the apartment.

***
Later on that night Lex was in his limo on his way to the fundraiser. Even though he told Chloe he didn’t want to go he had to. Several political leaders were there he had to talk to. He felt odd going to an event without a date but he shrugged it off. He was there to schmooze with the politician he didn’t need a woman on his arm to conduct business.

It’s not like he wanted another woman with him expect Chloe. He’d thrown away any thoughts of other women. He was completely engrossed in her. Even before she told him she loved him he couldn’t find the desire to want another woman after they kissed on the jet.

He tried once during there first month of friendship to have sex with some one else hoping it would get his mind off Chloe so he could focus on friendship but he wasn’t able to go through with it.

Lex was standing in the crowded dinning hall trying to grab a glass of champagne when he felt a woman’s arms wrap around him. He flinched away from her and grabbed her arm turning her to him.

It was Natasha Barrett grabbing at him and now laughing that he was so surprised. She was lawyer that Lex had sex with a few times two or three year ago and she just didn’t back off him after he told her he wasn’t looking for anything serious.

“Hello Nat.” Lex let go of her arm. She had on a light blue floor length strapless gown. She tossed her long brown hair giggling to her self that she had startled him. Once she got control of her self she attempted to give Lex a sexy look.

“Lex I saw you were alone and assumed you could use some company.” She was trying to push herself on to him.

Lex didn’t move he acted as if he didn’t care that she was trying to seduce him “You assumed wrong. I’m fine you can go now.”

She just grinned and tried to push her self closer to him. She tried rubbing her hands on his chest. “Oh come on Lex you look like you could use a friend. Besides I don’t see your little blonde friend here so you must not be dating her like everyone is saying.” She got so close to his face he could feel her breathing on him.

He didn’t flinch as she rubbed her hands over his chest. He just grabbed her hand and pulled it away. “I said you assumed wrong. Now stop embarrassing yourself.” Lex walked away from her.

He was ready to leave at that point so he made one quick pass of the room and headed to his limo. He was furious that the whole mess with Nat could have been avoided if Chloe was with him tonight.

He could have had sex just now but he didn’t want to have sex with anyone but Chloe. He was feeling unlike himself more and more. She was effecting in the exact way he tried to avoid by pushing her away but now that she was in his system again it would be impossible for him to let her go.

He hadn’t had sex in months. The lack of physical release was taking its toll on him. He arrived at home ready for another evening alone in his bed and masturbation to thoughts of making love to Chloe.

Sex was the least of his worries. Her lack of trust in him was the main issue keeping them from being completely together. He opened him self up to her more then anyone in his life and she couldn’t make the choice to trust him.

***
He walked into his bedroom kicked off his shoes, took off his cuff links and looked over at his bed expecting to see it empty but Chloe was sitting waiting for him.

“I guess you felt like going anyway, just not with me” she said it with an all too familiar irritated look on her face.

Lex sighed and prepared himself to have it out with Chloe. He needed more from her in this relationship and this talk was going to decide if he was going to get it.

Chapter 10
Next Step (Chloe POV)

“Are you just going to stand there and sigh or you going to say something?” Chloe had been waiting for Lex for five hours.

She debated for five hours if she should just go home and then Lex walked into the bedroom. The security let her in with no problem and she asked them to not to tell him she was there.

She wanted to try and apologize for pushing him away the other night and didn’t want him to leave if he knew she was waiting. She didn't think he would be gone so long but she knew she had to stay. Her fears were completely ruining their relationship and she knew she had to do something about it.

Lex had kicked off his shoe and removed his cuff links before he even noticed she was there. She love the way he looked in the tux and wonder if anything he ever put on made him not look so damn sexy.

She wanted to be with him tonight on his arm flaunting to rest of the women in the room that he choose her but Lex started a fight then ran out on her before she could get her say.

Lex was opening up more then she ever thought he would to her about what happen with him last year. She knew that it wasn’t the whole story but it was more then enough for her to start trusting him again.

He tried to explain his quest for the stones and how it seemed like Lana was the key to that so he was paying close attention to her. He tried to tell her about what happen in the study and apologized again for pulling her away during the meteor shower. He was even opening up about little details concerning his family. Chloe couldn't have asked for more from such a sheltered man.

Her counselor tried to tell her that she may be pushing Lex away for fear of losing him just like her father. When she thought about it she had fallen for Lex so hard it was scary to think he could be taken away and she would be alone.

She hated the thought that her subconscious was taking over her action. It was an irrational fear not to have sex with Lex. She wanted to make love to him but something in her kept her from doing it.

She wasn’t trying to tease him the other night. She was enjoying it and was ready but once he was above her with the condom on she just couldn’t. Her fear pushed him away. She felt like sex would be the last thing binding her to Lex making it harder to let him go if she lost him.

“Yes I had to go. It was and important event for me” Lex walked pass Chloe to his walk in closet.

Chloe got up and followed. “I have been sitting here for hours. I tried to call you but you didn’t answer.”

“I turned my phone off. I wasn’t avoiding you.” Lex took his bow tie off and tossed off his jacket. He didn’t look at her. Chloe knew he was still up set. He was being so cold.

Lex walked out of the closet and unbuttoned his collar and sat on the bed “What did you want. I thought Clark was helping you with your book?” He had to throw that in. Chloe wanted to yell at him about his endless fight with Clark but she tried to stay calm.

“I was supposed to be out with you tonight. Clark was only around for a hour then he left to go be with Lana. That was all he could talk about some big date they had.” Chloe walked out of the closet after him and sat down on the bed.

“Lex I think I know why I have been pushing you away.” Chloe paused and tried to catch his gaze but he just looked away form her. She let out a sigh and continued “I’m sorry about the other night. I know these past few months have been hell for you and I wanted to apologize for that.”

Lex turned to look at her but she couldn't read him at all. He was controlling his emotion and keeping her out. “Chloe you don’t trust me enough to completely want to be with me. It’s a problem that won’t go away because you say you’re sorry. I need you to act like you trust me. I know I haven’t told you everything but I have told you more then I have ever told anyone in my life. If you want to act like you trust me you could start by telling your friends about us. You could try telling me about what really happen in the caves. You could also try to consider how much it hurts me every time you push me away when we are about to make love.” Lex finished and rubbed his fingers at the bridge of his nose.

Chloe knew he was right. She wasn’t showing him she trusted him. “I do trust you Lex. I have been letting my fear keep me from you. I seem to be... well hopelessly in love with you. I pushed you away because if I lost you I wouldn’t know what to do.” Chloe felt needy after saying that but it was what she was feeling.

Lex shifted in his seat and ran his thumb across her check. His face soften and he started to let his guard down a little. “Chloe you are not the only hopeless one and you are not going to lose me. I’m not going anywhere. I can’t control every thing I hate that I can’t but I can promise you if it’s in my power we would never be apart. I know things are happening fast but if fear is the only thing keeping you from me then we can work though it until you are ready.”

Chloe started to tear up a little. She didn’t believe sometimes that Lex loved her so much. That all the time she told her self that last years friendship was one sided, that her falling for him was one sided, she just couldn’t believe sometimes she was getting what she really wanted from him. “Lex…I…love you” she sobbed a little and he pulled her to him.

“Why do you cry when I tell you how much I need or love you?” He pushed a few kiss into her hair and ran his fingers through it.

Chloe did hate crying in front of him so much but she couldn’t control it. She pulled up and wiped her tears away. She raised her hands and looked at Lex. He gave her a half smile and ran his fingers through her hair again. She was ready for the next step.

She kissed him lightly pushing her lips into his, licking a line across his lower lip, then pulling down on it. Lex grabbed the back of her head and pushed his lips into harder.

She let her hands move to unbutton the rest of his shirt and rubbed her hands over his bare chest. Then Lex stopped kissing her and pulled her hands away.

“Chloe I can’t have another night like last night. If you are not ready then let’s not start this. I don’t want you to leave. If want we can just go to sleep.” He looked so hurt. Chloe really did leave him high and dry last night.

“Lex it’s ok. I’m not going to stop.” Chloe stood up and pulled off her top. She kicked off her shoes and pushed down her pants. Lex just stared at her standing in front of him in her bra and panties.

She straddled him and started kissing him again. He responded immediately and wrapped his arms around her fiddling with her bra strap. Chloe pushed his hands away. “I won’t be the only one naked” then she pulled his shirt off and started pushing kisses into his chest.

Lex put his hands back around her to take off her bra. He pulled her away from his chest and freed her breast. His breathing was getting heavy and Chloe felt him swelling up in his pants. She pushed into him and Lex let out a grunt.

“I want you to be sure. We can stop now.” Lex seemed consumed by his desire now and Chloe knew that if she wanted to turn back she should do it now. She pushed back her twinges of fear and let her desire to be with Lex over throw them.

She didn’t answer his question. She responded by get off him and undoing his pants pulling them down. He lifted himself up enough to let her get them off. Chloe got down on her knees ready to do something she’d never done.

Lex looked down at her as she eyed his semi-erect penis. “Chloe you don’t have to do this. We can work up to this.”

Chloe still didn’t say anything to him and licked up and down his length gently. She looked up at him and he let out some harsh moans and closed his eyes. She grabbed his cock like she had done so many times before and he went completely stiff in her fingers.

“If I’m going to do this then you have to look at me. Make sure that everything is ok down here” Chloe waited until Lex looked back down on her let go of him and starting licking him again.

Lex ran his fingers in her hair and pushed it back so he could see her. Chloe didn’t know exactly what to do and sucked on the tip of him. It made Lex push up in to her mouth “Fuck Chloe! Not so much on the head.”

Chloe didn’t listen she liked the respond she got from Lex and sucked on the head again. “Fuck! It’s too much. Please Chloe” Lex’s eyes were pleading as he pulled her mouth off him.

“Ok sorry I will be good” Chloe giggled to her self and started licking him again. She started sucking at the head then lowered her mouth over him as much as she could.

Lex let out a long growl as she started sucking up and down him. She looked up at him and his eyes were on fire watching her mouth go up and down his length.

He started really feeling it and grabbed her shoulders as Chloe started bobbing her head up and down him faster. His breathing was erratic and Chloe was enjoying how he was losing control. She thought she was going to make him come like this but he stopped her.

“That’s enough, I want all of you tonight we can try oral pleasure some other time for both you and I.” Lex grabbed Chloe off the floor and almost tossed her down on the bed then he lowered him self over her keeping his weight off her using one arm to prop himself up. He pushed her legs open slightly and one of his was between her two.

He kissed her and it felt so good she grabbed at his head clawing at trying to get his tongue further in her.

Lex pulled out of the kiss and Chloe let out a harsh breath from losing his lips. He kissed his way down to one of her breast and played with her nipple with his tongue.

Chloe pushed up into him and as he started to suck hard on it. She grabbed his head and he pushed her arms off him. “Hey you get to touch”

He tilted his head up to her and grinned “Just consider this payback for what you did just now.” He used both his hands to hold her arms in place over her head then went to work on her other nipple. Chloe was enjoying it but she needed something more and Lex wouldn’t let her arms free so she started pushing up in to his leg

He took one hand and grabbed her wrists moved his leg and then used his free hand to push down her pelvis. He pulled down her panties and rubbed up and down her and settled his fingers on her clit and started to tease it with his finger tips. He was still sucking away at her breast then she could feel his teeth on her nipple.

Chloe started tossing head wildly panting out sounds that made no sense. She pushed her self into his fingers and tried to break free so she could touch him. She could feel her self dripping on to the bed. Lex’s body was hot against her and he started to groan in his throat over her breast as she tried to get free.

She was getting frustrated he was having fun with her. Teasing her nipples rubbing her clit, and not letting her touch him. “Lex please let go. I said I was sorry. I want to touch you. I want you inside me.”

Lex stopped what he was doing and pulled off her and went to nightstand. He pulled out a condom ripped open the packet and rolled it on.

Chloe shoved up on the bed to the pillows and stared at him as he position him self at her entrance. “You just had to ask.” Then he gave her half smile and put the tip of his penis just at her entrance “Tell me to stop if I hurt you.”

Chloe pulled him down to kiss him. He was so concerned about this being good for her. Lex pushed into her slowly. He knew she only had sex the one time and she would be to tight to just plunged in to her full force.

She pulled out of the kiss and let out a low moan as he entered her. She grabbed at his hips and stopped him from going any deeper. He adjusted him self and rested his arms between her keeping his weight off her. He pushed into her slower then before.

Chloe tried to relax her muscles and get use to how big he was. Lex was all the way in her and paused.

“Fuck Chloe you are tight” he said and squeezed his eyes shut.

She giggled a little seeing iron control wavering.

He opened his eyes and looked down at her “Are you laughing at me? You don’t understand how hard this is for me. I have wanted this for months, a year even. You fell amazing and you’re so tight. Now you mock me.”

“Oh poor Lex. Let me make it better.” She pulled him back in to a kiss and tried to say sorry for hurting his feelings then pushed up in to him a little trying to get things started.

Lex reared back and pushed in to her again this time a little faster.

He pulled out of the kiss to take a deep breath “Fuck you’re really tight.”

“Stop saying that. You say it like there is something wrong with me.” Chloe was feeling a little like she was going about this wrong.

“No there is nothing wrong with you. You’re perfect.” Lex pushed kisses into her cheeks and into her neck then buried his head in her shoulder. He reared back again and started to thrust slowly and paused again. Lex lifted up from her to check and see if she was ok.“Chloe is this ok. I’m I hurting you.”

Chloe lifted her legs up around him and pushed up in him. “I’m ok get going.” She said then pushed up in to him again.

He pushed sloppy kisses in to her and started thrusting in a steady rhythm. He was moaning in her mouth and she tried to meet his thrust but didn’t know what to do with her hands.

She rubbed them over Lex’s smooth head, down his strong back, then reached down and grabbed his ass. It made Lex grunt in her mouth and he thrust in to her faster.

Chloe was getting a good reaction and grabbed it again then dug into and just held him. She pulled out the kiss and was panting now as he started building up his pace. She felt like she might come but didn’t think she would before Lex did.

He pushed into faster and was sliding in and out of her easily.

“Ahhh…Mahh…Ohh…Ahhh…Ahh!” Chloe thought she was saying words but she had no such luck.

“Love… you feel so …good. Fuck!.. You feel good” Lex’s breathing was all over the place and he was staring down at her. He was completely focused on her like nothing else matter.

Chloe couldn’t look away from him. His face was stained and sweat was beading off his brow. She felt like she must look really silly to him panting out saying things that made no sense totally out of control but he didn’t look away.

Lex quickened his pace and grab at her breast and started to knead it. It made Chloe start shouting louder. She was little embarrassed that she was shouting so loudly but couldn’t stop it. Lex just keep grunting fuck every time he pushed into her. It was all he could every say when they were close.

Chloe felt like they were both covered in sweat and their bodies were sliding together back and forth. Lex lifted him self up little higher “Rub your self. I want you to come. I don’t think I can last much longer”

Chloe wedged her hand between them and found her clit. She didn’t think so before but after pushing into it she felt like she would explode at any moment. Lex pushed in her harder and was panting squeezing his eyes closed trying to hold out for her.

Chloe started at him. She loved him so much and loved that they were sharing this together at last. She rubbed at her self faster trying to get to her release as fast as she could.

She knew he was holding back a little but she wanted him to push in to her harder. “Lex…Lex…harder...harder.” She some how said it and her weird sounds were now her shouting Lex’s name.

She felt a burning sensation at her belly and knew her orgasm was ready to break free so she pushed into his thrust wildly. She moved her hand to place it back on his ass and pushed into him faster then everything shattered as she came clamping down around him screaming at the top of her lungs.

Fuck!” Lex shouted and pushed into her contraction and came in her in short sprits He held his position for as long as he could and slumped on top of her rolling them on their sides in one motion.

He was still breathing erratically and pulled his soften cock out of her. Chloe pushed her self into his chest and swam in her orgasm. “Sorry I was so loud.” She said muffled in his chest covered in sweat.

She could feel him grinning “You sound like a banshee.” Then she could feel his chest lift up in down as he started to chuckle at her.

Chloe pulled out of his chest and punch him in the arm “Well if I’m such a banshee then I guess you can spend thanksgiving by your self or better yet with you father.”

Chloe acted as if she was getting out of the bed and Lex grabbed the sides of her waist and pulled her back next to him. “Sorry, don’t leave. I like that you scream. Makes me feel like a…never mind I should take care of the condom” Lex stopped what he was about to say and got out the bed.

Chloe hurled her self back up again breathing out her noise like she was breathing fire at what he was about to say “Make you feel like what? A caveman” she shouted out to him at he headed towards the bathroom.

She watched him walk away to the bathroom staring at his toned body then noticed she was grabbing his ass so hard it had red finger marks all over it. She giggled to her self feeling like she hand branded him hers. Feeling a little like a caveman rather woman her self.

“What’s so funny?” Lex walked out of the bathroom and stood at the side of the bed.

Chloe stopped laughing and motioned for him to get back in the bed. She felt silly for getting so put out by what he said when she felt the same way. “Nothing. You know I was kidding about the not being with you for thanksgiving?”

Lex got back in the bed and pulled her to him “I was hoping you were but I hadn’t realized you expected my offer.”

“Well I have and you can’t take it back now that you know I'm so noisy during sex.” Chloe rested against his chest and Lex pulled her in tighter.

“You know I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings about the screaming?” She nodded against him feeling completly relaxed in his arms. ”You are staying the night tonight right?

“I don’t want to move from this spot for now if you don’t mind?” Chloe grinned into his chest.

He pulled her up and kissed her again and looked at her “I want to move to Metropolis. It won’t be until after the holidays. I’m telling you because I wanted to know how you felt about it.”

“It’s a great idea.” Chloe pushed little kisses into his lips happy that he was going to be closer to her. “I will tell my friends about us. I promise. I will start with Lois.”

Lex just kissed her again and didn’t say anything. She fell asleep clinging to him. Something she hadn’t done since the night in the hotel when she needed him to confront her. She was happy for a few moments that she moved past this fear but as soon she let her self be happy another fear sprung up in its place.

Chapter 11
Test (Lex POV)

Lex was clinging to Chloe in the study at the mansion. It was Sunday morning and she was heading back to Metropolis since it was the reading period and she need to study for finales.

Lex tried to have her with him as much as possible spending time in Metropolis and she would come back to Smallville on the weekends. She kept her word and he spent thanksgiving break with him. He loved waking up with her and was addicted to the idea that she should wake up next to him forever.

Lex was still waiting for his new penthouse in Metropolis to be completed. He told her he was moving but he didn’t tell her he want her to move in with him. He was afraid to rock the boat with to many changes when things were so good between them.

He pulled back on her to look at her getting lost in green eyes. “I don’t understand why you can’t study here?”

Chloe grinned and poked him the stomach “You don’t let me focus. You stare at me all the time. You have to keep touching me and then one thing leads another…” Chloe trailed off and placed her hands at his groin.

Lex let out a groan. “I can’t help it your so beautiful. Besides I’m not the only one that gets things started. I have work to do too.” He pushed him self in to her hand and she tighten her grip on his forming erection “See looking at what your doing right now.”

She gave him another grin then leaned in for a kiss. Lex pulled her closer to him hoping she would at least stay to finish what she started. He felt her hand leave his now hard cock and her arms wrapped around him pushing closer to him.

She pulled back from the kiss looking flushed and ready for more. “I really do have to go but I will take credit this time for getting things started.”

They were standing in front of the door leading out of the study but she grabbed his hand to pull him to the sofa. She pushed him down on the sofa hovering over him kissing him again. Lex loved when she took charge like this but he liked it better when she submitted to what he wanted.

Chloe tossed off her jacket and straddled him. He grasped the nap of her necking holding her in place kissing her again. He let her tongue flick across the roof of her mouth and over his tongue. Chloe start to unbutton her shirt exposing her lacy black bra to him. Lex kissed his way down to her breast.

He clutched at one of them with his hand putting his mouth to it sucking at her nipple over the fabric. Chloe grabbed his head and started stoking it pushing her chest closet to him. She was pushing into him teasing his erection with her aroused center.

Lex pulled her breast out of the bra and teased the nipple with his teeth. Chloe let out a groan and pulled off of him. “I can’t take anymore.” Lex grinned to him self that she was so ready for him after so little foreplay.

She pulled her pants down taking her panties with her. Lex didn’t’ hesitate to follow her but before he stripped down he took a condom out of his pocket then undid his shirt quickly and tossed off his pants. Chloe grabbed the condom from him and tore it from the packet and rolled it on to him.

She got back in her previous position over him. Lex reached down to see how ready she was and found she was soaking wet. He removed his hand a tasted her. Chloe grabbed his cock ready to guide it in to her. “You like that don’t you? A few kisses and I’m dripping for you.”

Lex did like it but didn’t say anything. He gripped her hips pushed her down and pushed up into her. Chloe responded and took all of him in letting out a hiss as he filled her.

He was still having a difficult time getting used to being inside her. Every time he filled her up he felt like he was going come after only a few minutes. The feeling of her wrapped around him was amazing he always had to pause and regain his focus.

Chloe took a moment to adjust as well and started to move over him in smooth stokes up and down. She was already losing control over her breath and Lex new she would be screaming out of control soon.

He tightened his grip on her thighs and seized her exposed nipple. He bit in to the peak and Chloe grabbed his head pulling him closer to her riding him faster.

“Oh fuck!” She shouted dragging her nails down his back. Lex didn’t know why but she always managed to leave marks on him since the first time they had sex and his ass was complete red from her grabbing at it.

He released her nipple and looked her. “Harder! Love. Ride me harder!” Lex grabbed her ass and she slammed into him harder like he asked.

She was panting his name and he loved the sound of it. He closed his eyes and let his head fall back letting Chloe work him over. She pulled him back to her “Look. I want you to see.”

Lex opened his eyes and saw her breast bouncing about as she rode him. Her face flushed completely lost in him. He wanted to yell “mine, mine, mine!” but kept it in. He put his focus on making her come and reached his hand between them finding her clit pushing into it.

“Oh God. Yeah that’s what I needed” Chloe yelled holding on to his shoulders losing her rhythm thrusting into him wildly. He knew she was going to come soon and put more pressure on her clit. Lex couldn’t understand what she was saying anymore it was always a good sign that she was close. He pushed into her clit harder and her screams got louder.

She pushed down in to him one last time clamped down around him and slumped on to his shoulder. Lex moved his hands back to her hips gripping them pushing up in to her tightening muscles finding his own release in her.

She was breathing in his ear and he heard her whisper to him “I love you Lex.”

Lex couldn’t believe he was getting what he wanted. Every time she said she loved him it still felt a little surreal. “I love you too.” He said nudging her up to kiss her again, linger over mouth.

Chloe pulled back “I really should go.” She lifted off his soften cock and started searching for her cloths.

Lex just sat back and enjoyed the view. “I still don’t see why you can’t study here.”

She quirked her lips up at him “I think we have just proven why I can’t stay here.” She was almost fully dressed and Lex grabbed her.

“When will I see you then?” He pulled her closer to him helping her with the buttons on her shirt.

“Maybe tomorrow if you are in the city you can stop by and give me a study break.” Chloe lunged at his lower lip pulling down it. She pulled away and went to grab her coat. “I also will talk to Clark today about us before I head back to Metropolis.”

Lex held back his comments on the matter. She practically told everyone in her inner circle by now just not Clark about them being together.

Lois expected it but made it known that she still didn’t like him. Chloe wanted them all to have dinner and after she announced it Lois went on for about and hour about how much she didn’t like it.

She told Lana separate from Clark and asked her to keep it a secret until she could do it her self. Of course Lana had to stop by again and tried to give Lex her two cents on the matter but walking out of the room work so well the last time to get rid of her he just did the same thing again.

He didn’t know why she had to wait so long with Clark. Lex grabbed his pants and went to bathroom to take care of condom. He came back with his pants on and Chloe looked ready to leave. “His reaction can’t be any worse then anyone else.”

“Clark Kent can surprise you sometimes but I will call and let you know.” She gave him one last kiss and walked out.

Lex finished dressing and attempted to do some work of his own. He was going strong for about three hours after Chloe left and now started to miss her.

He let his mind wonder for moment about her riding him on the sofa a few hours ago. He glanced over at the sofa and saw her panties. She forgotten them and he went to pick them up when some one busted into his study.

“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Clark looked furious. He started the conversation knowing Lex knew what he was talking about.

He shoved the panties into his pocket hoping that he didn’t notice. “I assume your talk with Chloe didn’t go very well.” Lex walked back to his desk to sit down a little pissed that she hadn’t called to say he was coming over. Just as he was thinking that his cell rang and it was Chloe.

“Excuse me I have to get this.” Lex flipped opened the phone turned his back to Clark. “Chloe, Clark is already here. I know. Ok. I won’t say anything. Ok. OK! Bye love” Lex flipped the phone shut and tried to do what she asked. She wanted to make sure he stayed calm no matter what Clark said.

“Love? You have got to be kidding me you don’t love her you can’t possibly love anyone but you self.” Clark approached him like he was challenging Lex to a fight.

“Isn't a little rude to listen in on another person’s conversation?” Lex stood up and walked over to Clark. Clark looked flustered and ready to fight. “I think you should calm down Clark.”

“I won’t calm down. I knew you were trying to be her friend. I didn’t know why but I let it go. You were really helping her out after Mr. Sullivan died but now you say you love her. What do you really want from her Lex? Are going to treat her the same way you treated Lana and me.”

“I didn’t do anything to Lana. Whatever she keeps telling you it’s a lie Clark. What happened with us is not all one sided. You’re to blame for what happened just as much as I am. All I want is for Chloe to be happy and she is happy with me.” Lex tried to stay calm he was doing his best to respect Chloe wishes.

“Don’t lie. I’m sick of your lies. You can’t be trusted. If you loved her so much then why did you drag her to that cave? You could have killed her in the meteor shower. You’re preying on her because she just lost her father.” Clark inched him self closer to Lex. His shoulders rising and falling as he got more enraged.

“You’re wrong Clark. Chloe has decided to be with me and as her friend you should respect her judgment.” He tried to back away but Clark just inched forward again.

“She’s making a mistake. I don’t know what you did or said to her but she blinded by something and she will see the truth. You’ll just end up hurting but I can’t let that happen. If she comes to me once with something you have done I’ll…”

Lex couldn’t hold back any more “You’ll what Clark beat me up like were kids in play ground. I think we already played that game after the meteor shower and you punched me. She’s not Lana. You’re not her boyfriend so why do care so much? You really haven’t been her friend. I was there when she cried, when she felt like she couldn’t go on after her father died. Where were you? She needed her friends and you were no where to be seen. You know what it doesn’t matter I would never hurt Chloe and there is nothing I can say to make you believe that. So why don’t you just get the hell out of here. It’s her choice not yours.”

Clark backed off and started to leave “I care about what happens to Chloe and will make sure you can’t hurt her.” He finished his say and walked out.

After Clark left Lex tried to shake off what he said. He wasn’t going to hurt Chloe. He wouldn’t let it happen.

He tried to get back to work and called his assistant giving her some assignments when Lionel walked in. Lex sighed and prepared himself for his father.

“I guess you decided to do some work today now that your little girlfriend is gone. I thought I also saw young Mr. Kent. He didn’t look to happy. Personally I wouldn’t get involved in the matters of college freshmen but it’s your choice.” Lionel seemed to start the day since his return with insulting Lex or making sure he knew how inferior he was to him.

“Good afternoon to you to dad. Did you get bored again in the guest house or did you blow your expense account again?”

Lionel sat down on the sofa and let out a groan. “I don’t see why I have to have that account. It’s and insult. I should be able to have back what was mine.”

Lex sat down across from his father and let out a laugh. He was singing this song for weeks. “Is that what you think? Well sorry but it’s nice to know that I can keep and eye on you for change.”

”Well son you still don’t hold all the cards. I thought I taught you how to watch your hand better then this. It would be really interesting to see what Miss Sullivan knew about what you’re keeping in a certain warehouse.”

Lex flinched. His father always seemed to be two steps ahead of him. He jerked him self back in the chair and tried to stay in the game. “Luthor Corp owns several warehouses you will have to be more specific dad.”

“I think you know the one. It’s covered with security. Now why would one need hired guns to protect agriculture machinery?” Lionel was standing over Lex. He knew he was getting to him.

Lex thought about telling Chloe about the spaceship. She may actually be able to help but he didn’t want to tell anyone else and giving her the information might lead to a Daily Planet exclusive.

“I guess I should point Miss Sullivan in the right direction. I’m sure she could tell me what you’re hiding in there. That girl is very resourceful.”

Lex jumped up from his chair. He didn’t want his father anywhere near Chloe. “Stay away from her.” He met his eyes and stared his father down.

He proceeded to laugh in his face “So concerned. You must really be smitten with her. I would have to say it is and improvement from you stalking Miss Lang last year.” Lionel walked to the door to leave. “I will find out what is in there Lex and if I need help I won’t hesitate to stop by Miss Sullivan’s apartment and ask for it.”

Once again his father managed to control all his emotions. He was going to have to do something. Even if the tip to search the warehouse came from his father he knew Chloe couldn’t let go of a good lead.

***

He didn’t waste anytime and made his way to see Chloe in Metropolis. He called her on his way over and she was happy to hear from him even though she just left.

He called for her to buzz him up and she didn’t say anything just pushed zero to let him in. He knocked on the door and she greeted him with nothing on but a little t-shirt barely covering her back side. She wore this on purpose he thought to throw him off, she was fully dressed that last time he saw her.

“Missed me already. Must have gotten my present.” She said then pulled him in to the apartment closing the door behind her. She left those panties on purpose.

She leaped at him and Lex caught her instinctively and she wrapped her legs around him then pulled him into a kiss. She felt good in arms like always and he wanted to continue things but knew he wasn’t there for that. He had to tell her before his father got to her and she had more questions then he could answer.

He slid her back down to floor but she wouldn’t let go of his lips. Lex tried to stop kissing her put she’d pulled on his bottom lip and brought him back into it again.

She pushed her self in to him and her nipples were already erect rubbing against his chest. She was giving him little pumps in to his growing erection. Lex couldn’t fight the urge to reach under her t-shirt.

He slid his hands to her butt and slowly started to lift the shirt caressing her soft skin and it made her moan in his mouth. She slipped one hand down to rub the font of his pant. He had to stop but she was making it so hard. He loved that she wanted him so much but Lex yanked his lips away and grabbed her arms and pulled her off of him.

She gave him a sad face at his abrupt release “So you don’t want me? I thought that is what you came over for after this morning you wanted a repeat performance.” Chloe tried to distract him from his goal again and started to pull her t-shit off.

Lex stopped her and tried to focus “Love please let me say what I have to say.”

Chloe cringed her face up in confusion. “So your sticking with this ‘love’ as my pet name? I thought you would go for 'sweetie' or 'baby' but must say I like 'love' better.” She wrapped her arms around him and kissed his check “I promise to be good while you talk.”

She let him go and sat down on the sofa. Lex gazed at her body clinging to the tiny t-shirt as she walked to take her seat. He sighed relived that she backed off for the moment. “I have to tell you about something that I have been hiding since the day of the meteor shower.” Lex walked over to her and sat down.

She gave him another confused look and didn’t speak just nodded and waited for him to continue.

“I’m sure Lana told you that something that wasn’t a meteor fell from the sky that day.” Lex paused again to gauge her reaction.

Chloe jumped up from her seat and her eyes widen. “You’re telling me the spaceship is real. That you have been lying to Lana all this time? Lex why didn’t you tell me? You didn’t trust that I would have kept your secret?”

Lex stood up and tried to touch her but she pulled away from him. He wished he could go back to when he first got there and she couldn’t keep her hands off of him. “I didn’t want to tell anyone. I had to contain it and my scientist have been working on it but they still have no answers as to what it is, where it came from, or if it can be opened again”

“Lex I can’t believe you have that thing. Lana said that two people came out of it and started killing people. It’s dangerous you should have told someone about it. You could get your staff killed or better yet you could get killed.” Chloe lowered her shoulders she looked like she was going to cry at the thought of him being harmed.

Lex reached to touch her again and she didn’t pull away this time and he rubbed his hand over her cheek. “Chloe I didn’t want anyone to know. Yes a lot of people got killed that is one of the reasons why I wanted to isolate it. I have the security guarding it and I also didn’t want to spread panic.”

It wasn’t the only reason Lex thought. He wanted to be the one taking the credit for finding and figure out what it is.

Chloe jerked away from his touch “So the ship is in warehouse 15?”

Lex almost jumped out of his skin. He had no idea how she knew that. Lionel must have gotten to her before he could. “Who told you about the warehouse?”

Chloe folded her arms and gave Lex her irritated look. Normally this was cute but she was angry. “I got and email a few days ago saying I should look into it and there was no return address. I did look into it. The place was covered with guards so I haven’t made a move yet to get a closer look.”

Lionel was bluffing this morning. He wanted to push his buttons and see if he would tell Chloe the truth. “So when were you going to tell me you were investigating one of my properties?”

“Does that really matter Lex? I research a lot of things. They are often dead ends. This one has been on the back burner because of school, the Met U paper, my book, and you!”

Lex felt a twinge of fear in his spine. Chloe could have her hands in number of his affairs that he didn’t know about and most of them not always on the up and up. He tried to push that thought back and focus on the matter at hand. “Are you going to tell Lana?”

“No! If you want to keep it a secret then I will keep it for you. You should be the one telling Lana and …. Never mind”

Lex thought she was about to say Clark. He wanted to push it but he didn’t want to blow it since she seemed to be taking it well. “You seem to be taking it well that a spaceship landed in Smallville and aliens came out of it.” Lex tried to touch her again but she still pulled away.

“I went to high school in Smallville for four years. A UFO is not going to freak me out. Trust me I have seen and experienced worse.”

Lex nodded. She was right stranger things have happened. “Are you angry that I lied to Lana? I know she’s still your friend.”

“Lex I’m not anger that you lied to Lana. I’m a little hurt that you didn’t think I could handle this kind of thing from you. If we are going to be together then you have to trust me with some of your secrets.” Chloe moved back closer to him.

That was the pot calling the kettle black she was keeping secrets to and hadn’t told him. “I guess that means your ready to tell me about what happened in my study and then in caves during the meteor shower?”

Chloe stopped approaching him and backed away. “Your right I haven’t told you but the secret isn’t mine to tell Lex. I don’t know how I got to Canada but I did. I can’t tell you what I saw, or who was there, any of it. It’s just not my secret to tell.”

“Chloe you can trust me. I just trusted you with my secret.” Lex walked toward her.

“I can tell you about something else that I haven’t told anyone about yet.” Chloe stood her ground and Lex touched her arm.

He ran his hand up down it and looked at her waiting to hear what she had to say. “Ok I’m waiting.”

“After I got my father’s money I made a lot of investments.” She paused moved pass him to sit on the sofa. “I paid several PIs to find my mother Lex. They just found something over thanksgiving break.”

Lex knew nothing about Chloe’s mother. It was something they shared not having a one. “What did they find?” He sat next to her and tried to be supportive this was important to her so it was important to him too.

“They picked up on her last place of residents in California. She was living in a run down apartment and one day the landlord said she stop paying rent. That she disappeared. She…I mean they found her…” Chloe started sobbing into her hands.

Lex pulled her close to him and waited for her to get it together to finish. She pulled out of his chest and wiped her eyes. “She was committed Lex. My mother’s …she is apparently very sick but…” Lex pulled her back into an embrace as she cried.

His mother had a metal illness as well. This wouldn’t be easy for Chloe to lose her father and find out her mother was sick.

Chloe pulled away from him and stood up and wiped her tears away “I don’t think I can talk about this yet. Please don’t say anything to anyone. I haven’t even told Lois. Can we just drop it for now?”

She just turned off her emotions about the whole thing and it scared Lex a little to see her do that. He wished she would have told him this before. He could have helped her. Lex nodded and Chloe went towards the bedroom.

Before she could get too far he grabbed her arm to get her attention. “I can help you with this now that you have told. You don’t have to do this alone”

She leaned in close to him and kissed his lips lightly “Thank you Lex. I should have told you. I think I left some books that need to use for studying at the Met U Weekly office. Do you mind if I see you later on tonight we can talk some more then?”

“Of course I can bring you dinner. I know you need to study.” He kissed her again lightly on the check. He tensed up and tried to pose his next question carefully. “Are we ok about the spaceship? I really had the best intention in hiding it.”

Chloe nodded at him “It’s ok Lex. I get that you wanted to protect people but I think it’s really dangerous for you to keep it and you should turn it over to the proper authorities. I understand. I still love you if that is what you were getting at.”

Lex let the tension go because he did want to make sure she still loved him. “I love you too Chloe.”

Chloe wrapped her arms around him and gave him a long kiss good bye then he watched her walk away into the bedroom. He was going to follow her but she look like she need some space and he left the apartment.

Lex knew that his father had gotten the best of him. It was a test to see what he could have control over and it appeared he wanted control over Chloe and him.

His damn father was getting in the way when he finally had what he really wanted.

Lex got in his car to head to the Luthor Corp offices in Metropolis to plan out his strategy. If Lionel was starting a war and he had to be ready.

That was a great update. I love the smut scene on the couch. :drool: I am glad he told her about the spaceship. I wish she would tell him about Clark.

Hope ;)

[Ann]

Great update! Very nice smut scene and I love how Lex told Chloe about the spaceship. Clark's being an ass, Lana's irritating, and Lionel is back to his games. Yep, it really is like Smallville. :)

I love this fic and where you're going with it. Please post more soon.

[Kikina]

This chapter´s really good.Most of all I liked the ending when they showed that they trust each other, that was sweet, but I sense some problems going in their way, hope they´ll make it ;)

[Willower]

I just read this whole thing all the way through and I loved it. I like that Lex is actually telling Chloe things and vice versa. The progression in their relationship just seems really natural and intense to me...great work.

[crazychlexer]

More!!!!more!!!!more!!!

Chapter 12
The Right Thing (Chloe POV)

Chloe was running from her apartment to small café just around the corner. She was meeting Clark and knew he would be there before her even though she was minutes away he still had his super speed.

As soon as Lex left she threw on a pair jeans and a sweater then called Clark. She didn’t give him too many details just told him to meet her at the café. She wanted to make sure Lex wasn’t lingering around the building.

“Clark!” Chloe saw him standing in front of the café and called out to him. He started to approach her and they meet half way.

“Chloe why didn’t you let me meet you at your apartment? Was Lex in there or something?” Clark gave Chloe a little bit of a disgusted look after he said that.

She knew he didn’t like that she was seeing Lex but he would have to get over it.

“Don’t start Clark. I got and ear full from you earlier today. Lex did stop by I just wanted to make sure he was gone before I meet up with you.”

“Fine, I will try to keep my objections to my self. “ Clark started to walk in to the café and Chloe followed.

After Lex told her about the spaceship she knew she had to tell Clark about it. Lex may have said he meant well in taking it but the ship was a danger to everyone and the only person that could handle it was Clark. Chloe called Clark to do the right thing and get him to the ship before it was opened by the Luthor Corp scientist.

Clark and Chloe settled at a table. Clark looked at her and waited for her to start.

“Lex told me something that I’m about to tell you. You have to listen to me. I mean really listen Clark.” Chloe poked Clark in the chest. She knew it didn’t hurt him one bit but she was trying to get her point across. He had to listen first.

“What did he do to you?” Clark’s tone was not at all what Chloe wanted to hear.

She shot a dirty look at him “Look there that what you just said. You’re not going to listen. I didn’t say he did anything to me Clark. Lex wouldn’t hurt me intentionally.”

Clark shook his hands in a downward motion trying to get Chloe to calm down “Ok. Ok. Chloe just tell me. It sounded really urgent on the phone.”

Chloe took a deep breath and tried to calm down. “It’s about something that happened during the meteor shower.” Clark nodded and waited for her to continue.

Chloe felt like she was about to betray Lex. He told her a big secret and she lied to his face telling him she wouldn’t tell anyone about it. She didn’t know what else to do.

If another kryptonian came out of the ship they could kill someone and she didn’t want that someone to be Lex. This was Clark’s business she had to tell him. She closed her eyes took another deep breath and told her self she was doing the right thing.

“What Lana saw was real. The two kryptonians that attacked you at the mansion did come from a spaceship that Lex has been keeping it in a warehouse just out side of Smallville. He took it…” Chloe tried to continue but Clark interrupted her.

“What! Chloe you can’t be serious. He made Lana believe she was crazy. I can’t believe this. I have been looking for it for months and Lex had it the entire time. I have to get to it right away another kryptonian came from the ship but he disappeared before I could really question him when he saw I wasn’t what he expected I would be. He told me that he would come back for me when the time was right. I don’t know what his motives are but I assume that he wants what the other two did.”

Chloe had no idea that ship had opened a second time. “Clark I didn’t know that. You have really been keeping me out of the loop lately.”

“I can’t talk to you anymore Chloe. You’re with Lex all the time and today you tell me that you’re dating him. I will admit that I thought something was going on when he stopped by your apartment in the middle of the day a few weeks ago but I didn’t think you loved him. How can you love Lex when he keeps lying to everyone? I don’t understand why…” Clark trailed off on a long list of reason why Chloe shouldn’t be with Lex.

Her face was getting red and her anger was boiling over. She stood up to leave and walked out of the café. Clark chased after her into the street and grabbed her shoulder. “Chloe wait.”

She jerked away from him and tried not to yell in the crowded street. “I’m sorry I wasn’t going to sit there and let you talk smack about Lex. You don’t know him Clark. You think you’re a saint but your not. You lie to. You lied to me, you lie to Lana, and you lied to Lex. I only know the truth because of Alicia. Yes he took it but he didn’t know what it was. He doesn’t understand what it means. If he felt like he could trust you then maybe he would have told you about it. Look I shouldn’t have walked away just now you still have to get to the ship so let’s go to my apartment and get the location of the warehouse.”

Chloe walked back to her apartment and Clark followed her. She opened her door and let him in. Clark paused before heading to her office and she stood waiting for him to say something.

“Chloe I know I’m not perfect but I’m trying my best. My abilities aren’t something I can share with everyone. Not everyone I know is ready to know the truth and Lex is on the top of that list.” Clark was looking down while he spoke he knew he up set her and was trying to hang on to their ailing friendship. “Chloe I understand that you love him but I just don’t think you are seeing him clearly.”

Chloe looked at Clark and tried to understand why he hated Lex so much. There was obviously something about the way he was with her and the way he was with everyone else that was different.

“Clark I don’t think you see him clearly. I know what you are thinking he took the ship he lied to Lana and he didn’t tell anyone about it but think about if he hadn’t contained it. The ship could have fallen in to the wrong hands. It could have been exposed leading people on a witch hunt looking for aliens. You know I can give you a million reason why he kept it but they don’t matter you just don’t see him the way I do.” Chloe walked toward her office to get the information she had about the warehouse.

“Chloe” Clark was right behind her. “I just I want you to be safe and happy. I just don’t think Lex can offer you those things.”

Chloe turned to look Clark right in the eye “It really doesn’t matter what you think. He has done nothing but show me that he cares about me and wants me safe and happy. He didn’t have to tell me about the spaceship but he did. He trusted me with his secret and now I’m betraying him. We are the lairs Clark not Lex.”

Chloe turned and make her way to her office. “You need to get the information and get to the ship.”

Clark nodded and he dropped it for now. Chloe gave him the information he needed and he rushed off in a blur.

She felt so guilty now. Chloe tried to study but all she could think about was how she told Lex one thing and did another.

It was her fear that Lex’s secrets would always be something that she would have to make the choice to keep or have to tell someone. She didn’t know if she could always keep his secrets. She wanted him to tell her things but didn’t want them to come between them.

Clark’s secret was one of the biggest secrets between her and Lex. She didn’t feel right telling him. Clark had to do it but Chloe knew no matter how much Lex worked to prove himself Clark never would tell him.

Chloe tried to push back her fear. That this wasn’t going to affect things. That one day Clark would tell him.

She tried working on her finale creative writing assignment when her phone rang. It was the lobby and she knew it was Lex. She answered the phone and he sounded some what cheerful “I hope Italian is ok.”

Chloe swallowed hard and tried to sound as normal as possible “Yes that would be perfect.” She buzzed him in and waited at the door for him to arrive.

She heard the knock on the door and almost didn’t let him in. She had to remember that she did the right thing. That the spaceship was meant for Clark to find.

When she opened the door Lex walked towards the kitchen “Well just have a seat and I will bring the food to you.”

Chloe followed him in to kitchen she had to touch him. She had to show him that she loved. She felt so bad about what happen with Clark. She needed him to know she loved him.

Lex was getting plates out of the top cabinet and Chloe reached around grab at his suit jacket and dropped it on the floor. She started to unbutton his dark purple dress shirt pulling it off and rubbing her fingers over his firm chest then over his nipple. She reached up to his head and kissed the little dimple in the back of it.

Lex let out a low groan as she massaged him and teased his smooth scalp with her lips. “So your not hunger for food I take it.” Lex turned to her a pulled her to a kiss.

He pressed his lips against her and grabbed her ass pulling her closer to him. Chloe wanted this. She always wanted Lex. She had betrayed his trust for a good reason but it was still betrayal. She tried to push back tears and continued kissing him pushing her self into him feeling him start to harden in his pants.

Lex kissed a line down her neck and fumbled with the zipper on her jeans. When he had them open he pulled them down with her panties and helped her step out of them then slid his hand down to her entrance.

He gave her a few long soft strokes across her entrance toward her clit and back again. “Lex” Chloe said grabbing at his shoulders and losing control of her breathing.

He stopped what he was doing to pull off her sweater. “You’re so beautiful. Every time I see you like this I see something new that I fall in love with.” Lex lowered his lips back to her neck and started to work her out of her bra.

He pushed a kiss into her neck “I love your neck.” He released her breast and pushed a kiss into each of her nipples. “I love your breasts.” He pushed a kiss into her shoulders then rub his hands over them “I love you shoulders.”

He ran his hands down her back and Chloe started to shiver “I love your back.” He looked at her with heat in his eyes and let his hands slid down her sides gripping at her hips. “I love your hips” He got down on his knee and pushed kisses into her stomach “I love your tummy.”

Chloe giggle a little at him using the word tummy but it was soon cut off because he was caressing her leg and pushing kisses into her thighs up and down getting closer to her entrance then moving back down. “I love your legs”

Then she felt him nudging her legs open so she would widen her stands and Chloe complied then grab at the counter behind her to brace her self. “Lex you don’t have to do that.”

He looked up and gave her a half smile “Let me finish telling you how much I love all your parts.” Chloe nodded and he continued “You know I love…” He didn’t finish the sentence but he pushed light kisses into her curls moving lower until he was at her entrance.

Then Chloe felt his tongue slide into her. After all the soft touches and kiss she was so sensitive now and every time his tongue flicked she let out a long moan.

Chloe looked down at Lex and started to rub his head as he got lost tasting her. She could feel her self dripping into his mouth and Lex didn't stop he seemed to savor it and moaned against her sending little vibration through her body.

He shifted on the ground and pushed two fingers into her pumping them in and out. “Fuck!” she almost growled that and braced her hands back on the counter. She felt a burning sensation in her belly and knew it meant that her orgasm was building up.

Lex put his mouth back between her legs and used his tongue to search for her clit then he went to work on it once he felt her wince. “Right there” Chloe said and let Lex have complete control.

He pumped his fingers in her faster and started sucking at her clit. Chloe started saying his name louder and louder pushing into his finger.

He stopped her from moving with his other hand and held her against the counter. Chloe felt her orgasm was close. She couldn’t form any more words she just started panting losing control of every thing around her. The only thing that matter was what Lex was giving her.

She loved that feeling he gave her. She didn’t want anyone else to give her this but Lex. He loved her so much. He was down on his knees showing her how much he wanted her and she just betrayed his trust to do the right thing.

She was panting and moaning so loudly now it just made Lex work harder at making her come. She grabbed at his head and pushed into him one last time and came screaming his name while her muscle squeezed down on his fingers.

Lex got up from the floor and looking pleased with his efforts. He pulled Chloe into a kiss and her now erect nipples rub against his chest. She could taste her self in his mouth sliding her tongue in and out of it.

She reached to undo his pants and Lex helped her work them down. “Turn around.” He said nudging her over on to the counter top. She did as he asked and heard him fumbling around in his pants on the ground for a condom. Once he was ready he pushed his cock in to her ass and grabbed her hips. “Tell me what you want?” he said in a low husky voice.

Chloe knew what he was doing he wanted her to beg a little. She had no problems with it and tried to give him what he wanted “I want you. I want you in inside me.”

He grinned when he got what he need and lifted her to him and plunged into her. He pushed into her as far as he could and paused in place. “Fuck!” he shouted trying to get under control.

Chloe pushed back into him letting him know he could get going. He replied and reared back and started thrusting into her shifting in and out looking for just the right spot.

“Ahhh!” Chloe screamed out when he found what he was looking for then he started to pound into her hitting her g-spot with every stroke.

Chloe tried to focus on what was going on. She was screaming out of control and couldn’t stop. Lex was grunting behind her using his favorite word fuck every time he hit her g-spot. He gripped down on her ass digging into her flesh leaving bruises.

“Hard Lex…really hard!” she screamed wanting him to pound her. She met him at every thrust and reached out on to the counter and tried to grab something as he drove in to her hard picking up his rhythm. The bags of food and plates she pushed to the side but there was nothing to hold on to.

Lex could see her scrambling “Hold me…Reach back to me” She lifted up changing her position slightly but he didn’t lose his pace still hitting her g- spot. Chloe tried to grab on to him pulling him closer to her.

He lowered him self to her giving her what she needed and buried his face in her back licking a line up and down her spine tasting the beads of sweat. This sent little jolts through her body.

He let go of her ass with one hand and searched around to get to her clit. It was throbbing from his early ministration and when he found it he pushed into it hard. Chloe screamed at the top of her lungs pushing back into him coming hard her muscles clamped down on his cock.

He shifted her back down and pushed into her in contraction. He lowered him self to her and bit down on her shoulder shoving into her pressing her into the counter as he came. He stayed slumped on her for a few seconds and the weight of what Chloe had done started to sink in.

Chloe nudged him off her and he pulled out of her. She wanted to put this day behind them but couldn’t help but see this as a sign. That it would always be like this. She would lie to him or he would lie to her and they would always be hiding things from one another.

“Are you hungry now?” Lex turned her to him trying to catch her gaze but she looked away. “Are you alright? Did I hurt you? You said hard. I'm sorry love. Look at me.” Lex put his hand under chin and lifted her to look at him.

Chloe had a few tears streaming down her face. She flung her self into his chest “I’m sorry Lex...I am so sorry” she said sobbing into his chest “I’m sorry.”

Lex pulled her close to him “What are you talking about? Sorry for what? Why are you crying?” Chloe didn’t say anything. She just cried doing the right thing it felt so wrong.

She was clinging to him and his cell phone rang. He let it ring but Chloe knew he had to answer it because it was his private line it had to be important.

She pulled off of him and grabbed his pants on the floor. “You have to answer the phone. It’s ok if you answer the phone.” The phone stop ringing and he took his pants from her.

“I’ll be right back give me a few minutes” He kissed her check grab his cloths and ran off to the bathroom.

Chloe grabbed her cloths made her way back to the bedroom. She got dress and slumped on to her side in the bed. She tried to get control of her self.

This whole thing could just be minor. It could mean nothing at all. Then she thought about why Lex told her about the ship at all. Who could have sent her that email?

She put it together. There was only one other person that could be interested in a warehouse owned by Luthor Corp under heavy guard. The email had to come from Lionel. Lex only told her to keep Lionel form tipping her off about what could be in the warehouse. What was Lionel trying to do?

Lex came back in to the room cleaned up and fully dressed. “What did you do today when I left?” His face was clinched like he was holding something back.

“I was studying. I told you I had to study I went to pick up the books and came back here to study.” Chloe sat up in the bed tried to figure out where this was going.

“You didn’t talk to anyone see anyone?” Lex moved closer to her by the bed still not like him self at all at least not who he was with her.

“No. I saw Clark after I left you this morning and then I came back here to work.” Chloe was lying again. She had to lie. She couldn’t let him know she saw Clark twice today.

“Ok. Chloe I’ll ask you this and please think about your answer before you say anything.” Lex stood her up.

He was holding on to her arms looked right into her eyes “Did you tell someone about the spaceship? Is that why you are crying you feel guilty? Think about your answer because I just got a call that it’s gone. The spaceship has disappeared.”

Chloe knew Clark took it. She tried to hold strong. It wasn’t her secret. Clark had to tell Lex not her. She tried to act surprised “What? I don’t know anything about that.”

His face transformed he could see she was lying. He let go of her turned his back to her. He rubbed his forehead several times then roared and grabbed her arms again shaking her “Your lying to me. I know you are. Tell me did you tell someone? I know you where worried about me and I will understand if you told someone to protect me. Everyone lies to me. Don’t start lying to me too just tell me the truth Chloe!”

Chloe tried to break free. “Let me go. Why did you even tell me about the damn thing? It was your father wasn’t it. He was the one that sent me the email. He was toying with you. Now you doubt me. He wants you to doubt being with me! It had to be Lionel that took it.” Chloe broke free from him and tried to put some distance between them. “Lex I didn’t tell anyone.”

Chloe choked on the lie. She couldn’t believe she was doing this. Lex didn’t say anything he just looked at her.

He was breathing heavy his face looked so pained. He knew she was lying. “I have to go.” He didn’t say anything else and walked out on her.

Chloe didn’t know what else to do but let him leave. Let him calm down and then she could talk him. She tried to tell her self it would be ok and this wasn’t her fear coming to light that she wouldn’t always have to lie. She could tell him the truth about anything but not this.

Chloe tried to think positive. She felt tears starting to well up. Her house phone rang. She ran to get it hoping it was Lex. That he calmed down that he wanted to talk. She grabbed the phone and saw it was the lobby “Lex!”

“No it’s not your boy toy. Sorry to disappoint. I know it’s late but buzz me up.” It was Lois. Chloe buzzed her in. She went to meet her at the door. She opened it for her when she heard Lois knocking.

“Hey! You look like hell. What happened? Is Lex having trouble with is thingy or something?” Lois walked in as if nothing was wrong. She made her way to kitchen and saw the bags of food. “Great you have something to eat. I was hoping you did.”

Chloe followed her into the kitchen saw her and Lex there just moments ago. She saw him telling her how much he loved all her parts.

This was her fear. It was the right thing that Clark knew about the ship but lying to Lex was so wrong. She lied for no reason other then to protect Clark’s secret. There would always be something like this.

She never wanted anything more in her life at that moment but having her father back and telling Lex the truth just now. Chloe let go letting out sobs her body heaving almost falling over.

Lois turned to her pulling into and embrace. “Chloe what is it?”

She didn’t say anything just cried on Lois’s shoulder.

She should have told him the truth. Things would never work if she had to keep lying for Clark and not just lying for Clark lying about any thing to Lex was so far from doing the right thing.

Chapter 13
Restless (Lex POV)

“Rewind it again!” Lex was yelling at the head of security for warehouse 15.

After leaving Chloe’s he wasted no time in coming to the warehouse to see for him self that the spaceship was really gone.

When he left her place he was furious now that his staff had no answers for him he was blinded by rage.

The security officer was shaking as he pushed rewind on the computer to repeat the moment the ship disappeared.

Lex kept looking searching for something to give him clues as to what happened but there was nothing. “Why don’t you explain how someone could have breached the perimeter surrounding the warehouse? Aren’t there at least thirty armed men out there?”

Lex stared the man down and waited for and answer. When he didn’t get one right a way he picked him up by his shirt collar. “Didn’t you hear me? You have men on guard at all times. So how did someone move something that large without anyone seeing anything?”

The man look like he was about to wet his pant and tried to answer him in a shaky voice. “Mr. Luthor several of the men on guard were knocked out but didn’t see by whom because it all happened so fast.”

Lex threw the man back in the chair and tried to get a grip on himself before he did something he couldn’t take back. “I want you to question everyone. Anyone that has ever stepped one foot into to this warehouse should be checked out. Someone knows something and I want answers not excuses the next time I talk to you.”

The man nodded and ran off to get started. Lex sat in the chair and watched the footage over and over again. He sat there for hours looking at every camera angle possible frame by frame trying to find something. The only thing he could see were the lights going off for less then a minute and ship was gone when the lights come back on.

He still had the data the scientist compiled but most of it was useless. It was the last things linking him to any of the other artifacts that he lost. The octagonal disk was gone, all the elements gone, and now the ship was gone.

After sitting there for at least three hours Lex made his way back to mansion. On is way home all he could think about was Chloe.

She lied to him. He knew she did. He could read her just as well as she could read him. He asked her a question then she flat out lied to his face.

Once home Lex made his way straight to the study and poured whatever he could get his hands on first at the bar. He downed the drink then tossed the glass at the wall letting out his frustration. Just as he was having his out burst Lionel walked.

“What happened son?” Lionel walked over to the bar to pour him self a drink. Lex was in no mood for his father now.

He walked over to him and snatched the glass from his hand before he could take a sip. “Aren’t you a little old to be up at this hour?” Lex walked away from him hoping he would just go away.

“You seem distressed. Have a falling out with Miss Sullivan?” Lionel tried to touch his son. Lex grabbed him and pushed him away.

“Don’t let her name cross your lips again.” Lex tried to calm down he couldn’t talk to Lionel like this. He knew he would prey on his anger.

“Things are only going to get worse from here. You may want to reconsider this thing you have with Miss...” Before Lionel could finish saying Chloe’s name Lex grabbed his throat with both hands and pushed him into the desk bending him down.

“Why are you here? You got what you wanted. I told her. She lied to me aren’t you satisfied.” He saw his father struggling and wanted to choke the life out him anything to release how he was feeling at the moment but he tossed him way knowing it wouldn’t solve any of his problems.

Lionel adjusted his tie and made his way to the door to leave. Before he walked out a little frazzled after he was just choked but he still had some final words.

“Lex what happened was only a taste of what’s to come. She’s making you weak. You should know better then to let me see any signs of weakness. I still don’t know what’s in that warehouse. I haven’t gained any leverage in that respect but look at you. You’re not acting like a Luthor your acting like a love sick fool. You’re making what I have to do next too easy for me.” Lionel finished insulting him and walked out of room.

He pushed Lex just like he wanted to. He planted the seeds of doubt and pushed him to tell Chloe about the ship when he didn’t have to. Then it disappeared for no reason. Nothing had changed other the fact that he told her.

Lex didn’t think that Chloe would actually tell anyone after she gave him her word but there was nothing else connecting the ships disappearance other then telling her about it. His father didn’t have the resources to steal it and he couldn’t think of anyone else that could have taken it.

Lex went to his bedroom exhausted. He had to get his focus back and think of what to do next. He got out of his cloths and got into the bed.

He tried to get some sleep then start the day fresh and focused on what to do but he couldn’t get to sleep. He tossed and turned in his bed thinking about what was happening.

Failing his father’s test was weighing heavy on him. Lex would have to do something quickly before Lionel went through with whatever he was planning.

The secret Chloe was keeping seemed to be more important then being honest with him. Whomever or whatever she was hiding he respected that she could keep the secret but would have respected it more if she would share it with him.

He kept repeating the scene in Chloe’s bedroom in his mind her lying to him, grabbing Chloe, shaking her, yelling at her, and walking out on her.

The spaceship was gone but now that just didn’t matter. She was lying to him and he couldn’t take anymore lies especially from her. More then anything he wanted to be honest with her and have that returned.

Lex attempted to close his eyes and get some rest but laid awake in bed until his body gave in completely spent and went to sleep.

***

Lex woke up the next day at close to 11:00am. He jerked out of the bed when he saw the clock. It was a long day yesterday and his body must have needed more sleep then he thought.

He looked over to the other side of the bed as if Chloe would be there but she wasn’t. He rolled out of bed and went to bathroom. He pushed down his morning erection so he could go and had no desire what so ever this morning to masturbate to thoughts of Chloe.

When he was finish he pulled back the glass door to the shower to turn on the water and noticed Chloe’s things. Her body wash, a loofah, shampoo, and conditioner were neatly placed in the in shower caddy hang on a hook attached to the shower head.

She left these things here during thanksgiving break telling him that she would be spending the night often and wanted to have a few things already here and not have to pack a bag all the time.

These items were mocking him. A slap in the face because after yesterday he didn’t think she would be back ever again if she couldn’t tell him the truth. He couldn’t be with her if she kept lying to him.

His father was right yesterday. He was letting his love for Chloe rendering his better judgment completly useless. He was being so honest with her and opening up to her but she returned the gesture with lies.

Yesterday was just like the day of the meteor shower when he saw her in his study. She lied to him and he lost control. He was in love with her then and she didn’t know and lied to him and now that she did know and claimed to love him back she was still lying.

Lex tossed the shower caddy out of the shower not wanting to look at anymore. He took a quick shower, wrapped a towel around his waist and walked into the walk in closet to get dressed.

In the closet he saw a more of Chloe’s things. Stuff she left behind hanging neatly in a space he cleared off for her. Lex pulled all those things off there hangers. He wanted to shred them.

He put on some slacks and a light blue sweater. He wasn’t going into the office today. There was no way he could focus enough to get anything done. When he was all done in the bedroom he headed into the kitchen.

His cook was already there preparing lunch. “Mr. Luthor I didn’t know if you wanted breakfast or not.” His chef never turned to him while he spoke he just kept chopping vegetables. “You never wake up so late but I am preparing lunch and I have coffee if you need it. Will your blonde friend be joining you this morning?”

Lex snapped at the cook for mentioning Chloe. “NO! She won’t be joining me. Just pass me a cup of coffee. I can do with out the lunch and don’t pry into my business.”

He was handed the coffee, grabbed it and stormed off to his study. He took a seat on the sofa and tried to calm down looking over today’s issue of the Daily Planet.

Everything this morning was a constant reminder of Chloe. It was also a constant reminder of what he would be losing if he couldn’t’ fix things with her. He couldn’t wake up with her in the morning, take showers with her, eat breakfast with her, and discuss the headlines in the Daily Planet.

All these things he would lose. A normal life with the woman he loved it was all slipping away from him.

Everything he really wanted would be thrown away because she didn’t trust. His life was full of secrets. He had all the secrets he could tolerate and Chloe keeping things from him just wasn’t going work. He thought she would be the one person in his life not to lie to him but he was wrong.

For the moment he tried to push Chloe to the back of his mind and called into the office to change his itinerary for the next week. He finished the call, put the coffee down, and proceed to pour as many drinks as he could consume without dying of alcohol poisoning.

Lex thought that drowning his sorrows would help him push Chloe out of his mind but he had no such luck. He was sitting in the arm chair with his scotch thinking only about her. Everything that was good about his life was surrounding her and he walked out on her.

Lex sat in his study and kept drinking until about one in the morning. He didn’t want any food just scotch. The cook did bring him something. Without a word he placed the food down on the coffee table but he never touched it.

At this point he was gone. His vision was blurry, he could barley stand, and if someone were to try and talk to him right now he was sure that his speech would be slurred.

In this inebriated state Lex wanted Chloe more then anything now. He just wanted her there so he could look at her.

He filled his glass again then went back to his bedroom.

Lex opened the door praying she would be there like the night they first made love but no one was in the room but him.

Somehow he stumbled into the bathroom and someone had cleaned it up putting her things back in the shower caddy in the shower. He was going to do that him self but his staff beat him to it.

He walked into his closest and all her cloths where picked up hanging neatly the way they were before he pulled them down. So Lex reached out to smell them and see if any hint of Chloe was on them. There was nothing since she hadn’t worn these cloths yet they just smelled like fabric soften.

Lex slumped down in his closet and whispered her name taking another sip from his glass. He didn’t care if she told him the truth or not. She could keep the secret.

Lex just wanted her there in his arms. It was all he ever really wanted. He put his head in his hands and just sat in the closet helpless feeling pathetic about the way he was acting.

Then he heard someone call out his name. “Lex.”

It was female voice it was low but no matter how drunk he was he knew it was Chloe. “Lex are you in here?”

He heard it again and tried to call out to her but being this drunk he couldn’t say what he wanted to “Chloe…I tried to pick up your cloths.” After he finished talking he knew it made no sense but he hoped she would understand.

He tried getting up but slumped back down on the floor. “Lex?” he heard her again but this time she was closer.

This time her voice was coming from behind him. Lex couldn’t move he thought it was the alcohol playing tricks on him now that her voice was just in his mind. Chloe wasn’t really there he thought. It was all in his mind but then he felt a hand on his shoulder. “Lex? Are you alright?”

He turned to her and couldn’t quite see her but grabbed her hand and pulled her down on the ground with him.

Chloe jerked down and fell into his lap letting out a yelp. “Lex what’s wrong with you.”

Lex couldn’t look away from her and stoked her hair not believing she was there. She took the glass out of his other hand and smelt it then turned up her nose. “Are you drunk? Your door man said you where in your study all day. Were you drinking in there all day?”

Lex tried to speak and this time make sense. “Yes I’m drunk. I’m losing you and you’re lying to me like everyone else but I need you. I need you to tell me the truth. I love you too much and my father says that makes me weak but I still need you. I want you to be with me forever. This is what I want. I want to wake up with you every morning. Why can’t I have what I want Chloe?”

He let out a nervous chuckle feeling like he turned into a sap and he vowed never to be one. “I must sound pathetic to you. Why do want to be with me? I'm too needy.” He pulled Chloe to him hoping she didn’t see him that way.

“No, no you don’t sound pathetic. Your not the only one. I need you too Lex. I love you. You’re just drunk. This is my fault. I should have come sooner. I just didn’t know what would happen when I got here so I had to build up the courage to do it. Let me take care of you. Let me help you to bed.” She put the glass down then got up and tried to heave him with her. “Come on Lex. You have to help me. I can’t carry you.”

Lex did is best to get up and Chloe tried to support him and help him to the bed. Once they were there she sat him down. She took off his shoes, and his sweater, undid his pants and pulled them off. “You can lay down now.”

Lex didn’t move he grabbed her and pulled her close to him breathing in her scent. “Lex you need to sleep.”

She nudged him down and Lex just toppled over. He was so drunk and tried. He was about to drift into a drunken sleep when she spoke again. ”Do you want me to stay?”

He grunted and grabbed her arm pulling her into the bed. “Get into the bed Chloe. Come on.” He kept pulling her trying to make her stay.

“Wait let me take off my shoes at least.” He let go of her for the moment and tried to stay awake and make sure she got into the bed but his eyes shut anyway. He heard her moving around then felt the bed shift next to him.

Lex reached for her pulling her next to him. “Mine” he said and grabbed her waist pulling her flush to him feeling her warm body next to him.

He sounded like a two year old but he was completely unaware of what was going on at this point. “Mine” he said again then he settled his arm around her.

“Yes I’m yours and that goes both ways. We can talk tomorrow.” Chloe pushed closer to him.

Once she was settled next to him Lex drifted off to sleep. He didn’t hear what she said but she was with and at the moment that’s all that he wanted.

Chapter 14
Secrets (Chloe POV)

Chloe woke up in Lex’s bed expecting to see him still sleeping next to after being so drunk last night but he was gone.

She reached over to his side of the bed to touch him but only felt one of the plush pillows he should have been lying on.

She sat up in the bed searching the room for him but he was no where to be seen. There were no sounds coming from the bathroom and Chloe checked the walk in closest hoping he wasn’t in there again on the floor but he wasn’t any where in the bedroom.

It was early in the afternoon and she had no idea were he could have gone. She hoped he was sitting in his study and didn’t leave the mansion when he woke up and saw her there.

Lex said a few things last night that really hit her hard. She wanted to be the one person in his life not lying to him and that is why she came to see him.

When he declared that she was his it was more then she expected but it made sense. Even through he was in total caveman mode grabber saying “mine” like a chlid it was true. Chloe was attached to Lex and couldn’t think of her life without him now.

She assumed that he was so drunk he wouldn’t remember anything he said last night but the biggest thing that hit her was that he wanted to be with her forever. Like anyone in love might do Chloe fantasized about her and Lex being together forever but she didn’t really think it was something that could happen.

Her counselor told her at her last session that he wanted her to start working on her coping skills if something didn’t go her way. Mostly the counselor was referring to doing poorly in school or having failed at getting her book published but she now she need to coop with the possibility of losing Lex.

Chloe spent most of yesterday getting the nerve to come to see him. After crying for awhile and listening to Lois rant about how much she should just stay away from Lex she tried to convince herself that everything would be alright. That the truth could fix this.

Lois tried to convince her that if he didn’t understand that she had to keep the secret then he really didn’t love her. Chloe knew better then that.
Everyone lied to Lex and she didn’t’ want to lie him. Clark’s secret was for him to tell but Chloe knew it would answer so many questions for Lex if she just told him the truth.

When she found out the truth about Clark it was such a relief to put all the jumbled pieces together and she knew Lex would feel the same way. She wanted to tell him but knew it wasn’t her secret to tell. Clark had to tell him but Chloe couldn’t keep lying for him.

She got up out of the bed and put her jeans on and secured the buttons on Lex’s shirts she but on last night then made her way to the study. She didn’t know if he was there or if she would tell him everything but they had to talk.

She walked into the study to find it empty. Chloe started to worry that if Lex ran away from her after waking up with her this morning he was still so anger he couldn’t be around her.

IF he was gone then he wasn’t ready to talk to her but she couldn’t let things stay this way.

Chloe turned to leave and really get dressed then she would set out to find Lex. Just as she was walking out of the study he opened the doors and walked in.

Cup of coffee in hand Lex walked right pass her to sit at his desk.

Last night he looked so drunk and dazed but now he looked like his cool, elegant self. He was wearing dark slacks and a black polo shirt looking nothing like he did when he was drunk.

He didn’t look at her when he came in and just opened his laptop and starting typing like she wasn’t there.

Chloe didn’t know how to start but she had to talk first Lex wasn’t going to. After last night he exposed himself and she knew that he wouldn’t be excited to talk to after he bared himself.

She tried to start off being sweet. “Can I have some of your coffee?”

Chloe waited for him to say something but he just slid the mug over to her and didn’t look away from him computer.

She knew sweet wouldn’t work on him but did it anyway but now she wanted to be her self. “I know you are little embarrassed about last night but please don’t give me the silent treatment.”

Lex stopped typing but didn’t turn away from the screen. “I’m not giving you the silent treatment. I’m just trying to think of what to say. Last night wasn’t one of my better moments and I’m still not sure where we stand or where to start.” When he was done he started typing again.

Chloe understood that he would be at lost for how to start but he wasn’t even looking at her.

She was about to speak when he cut in first. “I should start by saying that I’m sorry for grabbing you. I was so anger when I knew you were lying but it’s no excuse for what I did.”

This wasn’t the way Chloe wanted things to go. She was supposed to be the sorry one she was the one that lied. “I accept your apology but I should be the one saying sorry. I’m sorry that I lied to you. I want to be as honest with you and we will never work if I lie to you or if you lie to me. If your father gets involved then that will only make things worse.”

Chloe saw a little filcher of anger across his face when she mentioned Lionel then he settled back into his blank expression. “Yes my father did threaten to tell you about the warehouse and I told you before you could find out for your self. My father doesn’t have the resources to take the ship and you are the only person I told about it. The only thing linking to its disappearance is the fact that I told you. I just want you to tell me who you told.” Lex still kept his gaze away from her staring at the computer.

Chloe tried to get his attention by standing next to him behind the desk. “I’m sorry that I lied. I did tell someone where you were keeping the spaceship. I don’t want to lie to you but I can’t tell you who I told”

He turned to look at her and Chloe could see him trying to hide that he was getting up set that she was only giving him part of the truth. “When are you going to start trusting me with more of your secrets? There is no one else that I haven't told anyone else all things I have shared with you. About my famliy, my job, everything that is important to me I have shared with you. I just want you to feel the same way. What are you afraid of?”

Chloe tried to brace her self before she spoke “I don’t want us to get stuck in a cycle of lies. Not because we want to but because of the lives we are choosing to lead. I will always have my nose in everything. I won’t apologize for that I’m journalist I’m searching for the truth but I can’t guarantee that everything I find out about you I will agree with but if you have secrets that you want me to keep I will keep them. When it comes to me sharing with you about this topic I can’t answer your questions. It’s not my secret to tell.” Chloe buried her face in her hands this was so hard.

She cursed Clark under breath for not just trusting Lex like she did.

He got up from his chair and pulled her hands away so he could see her before he spoke. “I understand that Chloe. I think are desire to seek out the truth is one of the reasons why we get along so well. That is what I was doing when I was studying the caves, when I started searching for the elements, and when I took the ship. I was searching for the truth. Now you know something about all of it but just won’t tell me. I want you to be able to trust me with me with your secrets just like I will trust you with mine.”

Chloe grasped his hand and ran the other across his cheek. “I promise you that I’m not doing this to hurt you or because I don’t trust you. Lex, try to respect that this is not for me to tell. I’m sorry but this is the best I can offer you right now.”

Lex pulled away from her and Chloe knew she would have to tell him more. He wasn’t going to take things from her half way.

He put some space between them standing by the fireplace with his back to her. “I can’t do this. I can’t have almost telling me the truth. I can’t help but feel like you rather protect this person then be honest with me.”

This was it Chloe knew he was feeling this way. She was putting Clark before Lex and she didn’t want to. The decision would have to be made if she was going to keep Clark’s secret forever or tell Lex now but first she need to make sure that they were both in this all the way it. She had to know if Lex really meant all those things he said last night

“Can we sit down?” Chloe sat on the sofa and Lex hesitated but sat next to her.

“Last night when you said that you wanted to be with me… you know what you said I want to know if you meant it.” She was having a hard time getting out what he said last night but he did it for her.

“I said a lot of things last night that I don’t remember but I think I know what you are asking me and the answer is yes I do want to be with you forever.” Lex looked like he wanted to hide after admitting that.

Last night he just wanted to hold her but now that he was fully aware of what he was saying Chloe knew this was hard for him.

It was like pulling teeth. She just wanted them to be open and they both couldn’t seem to just let out how they felt. There were so many insecurities between the two of them and the fear of rejection was just so scary.

Chloe sat closer to him and wanted to hold him but he pulled away from her earlier when she tried to touch him so she slowly put her hand on top of his resting on his leg. “I think I have spent that last six months feeling that way too. Since you held me that night in the hotel all night long I knew that I wanted us to work out. I tried to deny it but it didn’t go away. I want us to be together forever too.”

Lex didn’t say anything right away put he placed his other hand over hers’ and sighed looking relived to have it out in the open. “Chloe that’s why this hurts me so much. If we are going to be together we both need to be honest with each other.”

Just as Chloe thought they were getting some where he moved his hands away from him and inched away. “I want to be honest with you. I just can’t tell you everything yet. Can I say something else.”

She waited to see if he wanted her to continue and he nodded so she went ahead. “I also wanted to say that I need you to. I love you so much and I know it sounds really needy but it’s the truth I need you. You said that your father told you it was a sign of weakness that you need someone and I don’t want to make you feel that way.”

Lex shifted in his chair several times before he finally said something. Chloe hated that he was so uncomfortable with her right now.

Then his mood complete changed when looked directly at her finally. “I love you Chloe and I don’t care what my father thinks. This is really new to me and I’m not giving up on us. My father is going to try and take advantage of my feelings for you. He hasn’t said exactly what but he has a plan and I don’t know what to except but I promise to keep you safe.” Lex let down his guard a little and held her hand again.

This is not what she wanted. If Lionel was going to come at them she wanted them to be together on it. "I think we need to help each other. If Lionel has some sort of master plan then we have to work together.”

Chloe tried sitting closer to him and he pulled her into his arms. It was nice and he was warm and she relaxed on his chest feeling like she belonged against him like this. “Your right but there is a part of me that just has to protect you. I can’t stop feeling that way. I can’t let anything happen to you.”

Chloe meet eyes with him and want to kiss him. “I want to tell you the whole truth but there are somethings I have to sort out first. I don’t want something like this to happen again. Give me till tonight.”

She needed to talk to Clark first. Maybe there was some way to convince him that telling Lex the truth was would be a good thing.

Lex would stop searching for the answers and obsessing about it his failure to understand ceratin parts of his life. Then Chloe wouldn’t have to lie for Clark to him and that is what she really wanted.

Lex pressed his lips together clinching them down and is body tensed up Chloe knew he was trying to accept that she couldn’t tell him yet. “Tell me when you are ready. I want us more then I want know.”

Nothing made her want him more then when he was opening up to her. “Lex do want you to kiss me? I know that we aren't perfect but I…”

His lips were on her in a matter of seconds. It was nice and slow and he pulled his fingers through her hair with one hand letting the other pull her closer to him.

Chloe lifted her hands up to stroke over his smooth scalp and it made him moaned in his throat and she could feel that he was getting excited when she brushed her hand over his lap then he pulled away “Chloe we don’t have to.”

“I think we do.” She smirked at him then kissed him again moving over to straddle him.

Chloe wanted to be close to him but it wasn’t like the other day in the kitchen when she felt guilty. It final sunk in that he need her and she wanted him to know she need him to.

Chloe knew that there was very little keeping them apart now. Lionel could try whatever he wanted they were going to fight him together. He was going to help her find her mother. She would convince Clark to tell Lex the truth. These things they could handle and she let her fears go.

She pulled back from him and he let out a harsh breath form her release. “Can we go to the bedroom?”

Lex pushed her off to stand up and they walked back to his room in silence. It wasn’t awkward or strained silence. Chloe felt like he knew that she needed him and he needed her just as much.

Chloe sat back in the bed against the pillows and Lex sat next to her and started to unbutton the dress shirt but didn’t pull the shirt off right away. He slid his hands down between her breasts to her belly caressing her soft skin.

She moaned a little as he touched her. “Chloe do have any idea how much I love you. I missed you so much yesterday but we don’t have to…”

His protest was cut short by Chloe’s kissing him this time with more urgently hoping he get the point that she wanted this.

She pulled down on his bottom lip then lunged back at him let and her tongue slide into his mouth.

Lex pulled the dress shirt back and exposed her breast so he could twirl one of her nipples between fingers. She stopped him just long enough to pull off his shirt then his hand went back to breast.

His other hand went down to undo his pants so she helped him and undid the zipper pushing her hand it his pants finding his semi erect penis.

Lex moaned in her mouth as she touched him then position him self on top of her on the bed trying to keep his weight off of her getting lost in the kiss still holding on her to her nipple pinching the peak between his fingers.

He pulled up to take off his pants and Chloe pulled of her jeans and tossed them away.

Lex leaned over slid his hands again between her breast down her belly to her soft curls and back up again. She was enjoying the touching and wanted him so much she knew it wouldn’t take long for her to climax.

Chloe kept quite and moved closer to him as he caressed her. A worried look went over Lex’s face. She knew it had to be because the last time they finished having sex she started to cry.

“Chloe?” he said almost pleading for her to say something anything thing.

“I’m ok. I want you. I always want you.” Chloe reached up and seized his lips again. Licking line across the bottom and sucking on it.

He wrapped his arms around pulling her closer and took over the kiss then slowly laid them back down on the bed. One of his busy hands found its way to her clit then he teased it with his fingers tips.

“Oh God” Chloe said pulling away from him rolling her hips getting him to touch her just right. He let his fingers leave her clit and sunk two of them into her and groaned when he felt she was wet.

“Yeah Lex!” Chloe shouted pulling on is hand getting him as far in her as he could.

“More. I want more of you.” Lex did as she asked and slipped a third finger into her. She grabbed the back of the bed when he started to pump in and out of her curling up the three long finger making squirm about on the bed.

Lex stared at her watching her losing control under is touch. Chloe tried to hold back her cries moving her head from side to side, her chest rising and falling, and her eyes tightly shut but Lex tried to get her just let it happen caressing her cheek stopping her from shaking. “It’s ok Love. You can let go.”

Chloe let go like he said and met his eyes panting his name. She loved her pet name and wanted to give him one but nothing ever seemed to sound right for him.

He pushed into her faster her muscle clenching at his fingers drawing him in to her. Chloe grabbed him and pulled his chest to her and burrowed into letting out muffled screams.

Lex must have wanted to hear and see her coming so he pulled back on her then shifted his three fingers in her so his thumb could push into her clit.

She grabbed at him tighter clawing at his shoulders as he drove into faster putting pusher on her clit. Chloe fell back on the bed feeling her orgasm not far off meeting his fingers rolling her hips as he plunged into her.

“Come for me Love. Come for me” She thought he must have known she was close because as soon as he said that she came screaming his naming drawing up the sheets arching up on the bed.

Lex let her come down and took his fingers out of her then caressed her again making a line up and down her body.

“Do want to stop?” He sounded a little conflicted by the question. There was no way Chloe wanted to stop and didn’t answer him just hauled him to another kiss then grabbed his cock feeling that he was complete stiff for her.

He pulled away from her “Condom” then reach over to the night stand rummaged though the top drawer looking for one.

She was getting impatient. “Lex hurry up.” He found one and put his attention back on her.

“Just can’t get enough?” He gave her smirk and opened the packet and rolled on the condom.

“I think that goes both ways just like your mine and I’m yours.” She replied with her own smirk.

Lex held his head down in shame and must have remembered what he did last night before he went to sleep. “I must have sounded like a child last night.”

Chloe shrugged and pulled him to her and he positioned him self between her legs. “It’s ok. As long as you know that your ownership doesn’t mean you can control me.”

Lex nodded and put the tip of his cock at her entrance and paused she knew he was savoring how wet had gotten after his work with his fingered.

“I don’t think I could ever control you.” He smirked again.

Chloe was tired of waiting so she grabbed his cock and pushed it into her “Please. Get going.”

Lex did as he was asked and didn’t start off slow but gave her short fast strokes. Chloe bit down on her lip feeling him move over as he took control of her whole body.

Even though she just said he couldn’t control her when ever they had sex he took control of her.

She would sweat, lose control of her breathing, say things she never thought she would say, her hips would react to him thrusting into his rhythm, and every time she came she felt like he could have complete control over her like this forever.

Lex started grunting feeling Chloe all round him. Her eyes were on him unable to look away. Her hips meeting his thrust and her hands grabbing his ass digging into his flesh. There was nothing else that matter right now other them being close again.

“Fuck…I can’t… Chloe” He yelled closing his eyes.

She saw the look on his face he couldn’t last much longer and must feel like he would be disappointing her if he came too soon.

“It’s ok …you can come…. I want you too.” She said out of breath letting go of his ass and brushing her fingers over his scalp. It made him moan pushing into her faster pulling her close to him burrowing his face in her neck.

She knew Lex was going to explode soon and didn’t want him to hold back any more so she pulled his ear close to her mouth and her whisper into it. “I love you Lex.”

Her words shot through his body straight to his cock and he pushed into her one last time finding his release screaming her name then slumped over on her completely exhausted.

Lex exhaled one last long breath and pulled out of her then flopped on the bed. “I thought that I lost you yesterday and having you just now I couldn’t hold out for you to come again.”

Chloe reached down to pinch one of his ass cheeks. “Lex it's ok. I enjoyed it so stop worrying.” Lex kissed her cheek then heaved up and went to bathroom to get rid of the condom.

He got back in and spooned her pulling her flush to him like last night. “I love you.”

Chloe lined up against him perfectly nested her body to his body like she should have always been there.

Chloe turned to him and kissed him. Pulled back and her mood changed completely. “Are we going to be ok?”

Lex looked worried again. “I think we will be ok if we are honest with each other and I don’t mean the secret that you can’t tell me about yet. I am talking about with everything else.” She nodded at him expecting his answer and kissed him again.

“Thank you for understanding Lex.” She turned and cuddled up next to him.

“I don’t want to leave but I want to take care of this now.” Chloe had to see Clark and get this over with. She knew it was important to him that she be honest and she had to let know Clark before she could tell him anything.

This couldn’t and wouldn’t be a problem if Clark just trusted Lex again. She would have to make him see that he didn’t have to hide anymore.

Lex’s arm settled over her almost keeping her from getting up. “Where are you going?”

Chloe pulled up out the bed and motioned to the walk in closet. “I promise to tell you everything when I get back. I have to take care of this now.”

Lex didn’t look please that she was leaving. He sighed then shook his head. “If you have to do it now then I can’t stop you from leaving but you are coming back?”

“Of course I’m coming back. I have to study and I was hoping that I could stay here until my exams next week.” Chloe looked around the closet for the bag that she bought with her last.

“I thought you said you couldn’t study here. I’m too much of a distraction.” Lex was behind and saw the bag with her books and under gramets. “I didn’t know you brought that with you.”

Chloe chuckled a little before she spoke, “Well you were smashed last night. I’m surprise that you can walk around right now. You could barely get off the floor last night.” She turned to him in the doorway and he looked hot naked but not to thrilled that she brought up his drunken behavior.

“I’m a Luthor. I can hold my drink.” Then he jerked out the doorway walking back to the bed.

Chloe grabbed his arm knowing she wounded his pride just a little. “Sorry I take it back you were perfectly coherent last night.” She tried to hold back the giggles. “I promise I will be right back.”

Lex pulled her into his arms. “You better be back.” Then he gave her nice soft kiss before letting her go the bathroom.

Chloe took a quick shower and got dressed. She loved seeing her things in Lex’s room. When he first told her he was moving to Metropolis she thought he would ask her to live with him but he still hadn’t mentioned it.

For now Chloe pushed back the thought and prepared her self to see Clark. She finished up in the bathroom, gave Lex another long kiss good bye, and then called Clark from her car.

He said that he would meet her in the barn and Chloe drove off to go see him. She didn’t want to lie to Lex anymore to keeping Clark’s secret. He would always want to know and see it as a sign that she never fully trusted him.

***
Clark was standing by the window looking out to Smallville when Chloe walked up the stairs to the barn. She hadn’t been in the loft since she told him about her and Lex. Being there now struck up all sorts of bad memories.

She saw herself crying over Clark kissing Lana, him rejecting her when she came on to him in nothing but a football jersey, and worst of all him telling that her he didn’t think she should be with Lex.

“Hey” Chloe called out to get his attention.

“Chloe. What did you want to talk about?” Clark turned to her and looked a little hesitant about the conversation they were about to have. “I never thanked you for telling me about the spaceship so thank for telling me the truth about it. I assume Lex is pretty up set about losing it”

She walked over to stand next him looking out on the beautiful view of Smallville. “Yes he is up set. That is what I wanted to talk to you about. Clark he knew I told someone and that person took the ship. I had to tell him the truth.”

Clark tuned to look at her with his faced clinched. “What you told him my secret. Chloe please tell me you didn’t”

Chloe saw him and couldn’t believe how much he didn’t trust that she would keep his secret. It had to be the reason why he never told her about in the first place she had to be shown without his knowledge and he never seem to get over that either.

She tried to stay calm and talk to him. “No I didn’t tell him. I did say that I told someone and that person did take the spaceship. I also told him that I would try to tell him the truth. I think I can convince you to tell him you’re self.”

Clark shook his head “No way. Lex can’t know Chloe. Can’t you see what he’s doing?”

This wasn’t going well. Chloe just wanted him start thinking that he could tell Lex the truth but now it seemed like he was going to attack her relationship with him again. “No Clark what is Lex doing to me?”

“He’s using you. He’s manipulating you into telling him my secret. He doesn’t really love you Chloe. It’s just a tactic for you to trust him” Clark finished and stepped back from her seeing Chloe’s face flare up.

Course Lex didn’t love her because nobody ever could. Clark just wanted her to pine after him for ever. “Thanks a lot Clark for belittling my feelings. I could never love anyone but you is that it and why would anyone want me for that matter. When you thought Lex was after Lana it made perfect sense but now that he wants me its just a way to get information out of me.”

She took a deep breath and was going to drive back in but Clark waved his hands up “That’s not what I said Chloe. I think your letting your feelings for him confuse you. You were grieving and he kept following you around getting in your face making you think you could trust him. Making you think that his feelings were real and now he wants to know the truth about me and he’s making you feel guilty for not telling him.”

Chloe shook her head getting frustrated because this wasn’t what she came here for.

Clark always managed to hurt her feeling and make her feel like the most unwanted person in the world.

She was breathing heavy now really getting into the fight and felt like it was time to throw some stones of her own.“ So because my father died I can’t think for myself. Thanks a lot Clark. The last time I checked I had a brain and I can think for myself. So why can’t Lex want to be with me and not have some master plan to get info out of me and dump me? I’m not your lap dog anymore and you feel threaten by that. That I’m not following you around always there for you to use me when you need me. It scares you that someone else might want me and I could actually be happy. You call your self my friend then a friend would want me to be happy…”

“Chloe I…”Clark tried to interupt but Chloe keep going before he could.

“No I’m talking now. You got to insult me I get to defend myself.” She took another deep breath and her hands were in a fist she could kill Clark right now for thinking about Lex and her this way.

“You’re treating Lex the same way you treated me before I knew the secret you didn’t trust me. Even now that I know you still don’t trust me. What does it matter if I tell Lex or not you don’t care about me you never have? I’m just your search engine when you need information. The only thing that has ever matter to you is Lana. I never registered with you as an important person in you life. Honestly Clark what has Lex done that makes you feel this way.”

Chloe look at him with fire in her eyes she knew this answer would be dripping with half ass reason why Lex couldn’t be trusted.

“He lies to everyone Chloe. He told me he stopped looking into who I really was and he had an entire room about his investigation on me. He tried to steal all the stones. Lex used you to get Lionel into prison and he never acknowledged you after all the work you did almost getting killed for him. Not to mention what happen when he was split in half. Chloe he tried to kill you. Also the way…”

Chloe jumped in before he could continue. “No you can’t use that against him. You want to talk about people and their dark sides lets talk about you when you went on your binge in Metropolis during the summer.”

“Fine I deserve that but what about the way he treated Lana. He told her he cared about her then constantly lied to her and during the metero shower he attacked her for giving the stone away to me. She was in danger and all he could think about was what he wanted.”

Chloe breathed fire almost after he paused. Clark saw everything one way. “Like I said before its all about Lana. The way Lex treats Lana. What about the way you treat her. You lie to her does that mean she should leave you. Maybe I want to have something deeper then that with Lex. I don’t want anything between us.”

“No Chloe that’s different and you know it is. If Lana knew the truth she could be put in danger.” Clark tried taking a few deep breaths. He was getting dazed by this fight just as much as Chloe.

“How is it different Clark because I know the secret and you don’t seem to have a problem with it?” Chloe waited for him to answer and he just shuffled his feet looking at the ground. “Well Clark how is it different!”

“Because you’re not like Lana. She’s…” Clark was searching for the right word and Chloe filled it in for him.

“She’s what Clark? Your porcelain doll that could break at any moment? I can just take anything. I’m like one of the guys or something. Pete and me were never in danger is that what is? I have had it up to here with you defending lying to Lana to me.”

“Chloe if I had it my way no one would know my secret not even you. I just can’t trust…I mean” He took a few steps back knowing what he just said. He didn’t trust her.

Chloe walked up to him and got in his face breathing on him almost heaving fire on to him throught her nose. “You don’t trust me is that it. What do I have to do to get you to trust me Clark? I’m keeping this secret from Lex for you when I know he wants to know. When I know that knowing would answer so many missing pieces in his life. I’m lying to him for you and you have no idea how hard that is for me.”

“Chloe I didn’t mean for it to come out that way but there was that time you were working for Lionel and now it’s really because you’re with Lex that my trust in you is wavering. I think he is using you and you’re convinced that he loves you. Lex will use that against you. I don’t want you hurt by him because you want to be a loyal friend to me” Clark tried to touch her and she jerked away.

This was how it’s been with them for years now. Everything she did was questioned because of one mistake. He some how managed in only a few minutes to make Chloe feel worthless and untrustworthy.

“When am I going to stop paying for what I did with Lionel. Are you always going to throw that in my face? After what I did for you this week you still don’t trust me. I have to be loyal to Lex to. I love Lex. I won’t lie to him for you. I just wanted you to try and see him the way that I do. Lex has been so patient with me while I made up my mind about him. He even told me today that I matter more to him then knowing your secret. He has never pushed me to lie for him. When we first got together he didn’t want to lie and hide it but I did because I didn’t trust him. Now I’m doing it again because you want me to lie for you because you don’t trust him. I trust Lex now I don’t want to lie to him. If you we are friends then you would understand that I can’t lie to Lex for you. This friendship has been one sided for so long I just wished I had saw it sooner.” Chloe started to walk out to leave.

“Chloe wait are you going to tell him? I can’t let you do it.”

Chloe turned back to him. “What are you saying either I keep lying for you or else? I’m with Lex or I’m with you?”

There was no question in her mind who she was going to side with if that was the case.

“Yes I guess that’s what I’m saying Chloe. If you tell him I can never trust you again. What you choose now Chloe it is going to define our friendship.”

Chloe didn’t hesitate to answer. “I choose Lex.” She turned to leave again heading down the first step but was stop by Clark running in front of her.

“Wait Chloe think about what you are doing. Lex is heading down a path to a really dark place. I don’t want him dragging you down with him. Is this what you really want to be with Lex?” Clark eyes were pleading choose me, take my side, be my friend.

Chloe was tried of being ruled by the rules as Clark Kent set them out for her.

She let her self catch her breath and look Clark right in the eye. “You don’t understand what Lex means to me. I know it’s hard for you to understand but you don’t see him the way that I do. I don’t understand what it is that works so well with Lex sometimes but it does. I think we both know that you and I are at a cross rodes so lets just say that it was nice being friends with you when you weren’t treating me like crap but I think whatever was between us is gone now. You don’t trust me and Lex has his doubts but I rather be honest with Lex then lie for you ever again. I made my choice. Where ever Lex is going he won’t be dragging me down Clark. We will be walking together side by side.”

Chloe finished and walk away from Clark. She walked away from him for the last time. He tried calling after her but it was to late she was done being hurt by him. She got in her car taking a deep breath letting go of the tension.

She picked up her cell and called Lex.

Lex picked up and she had a quick conversation with him. “Hi it’s me…I know I miss you to… Can you meet me some where…The caves?...Yeah everything is fine…I’ll see you in a few minutes…I love you too.”

Chloe pushed her phone off and started the car heading out to the caves to meet Lex.

Chloe knew it wasn’t her secret to tell but it really didn’t matter anymore what it meant to keep it.

Chapter 15
Revelation (Lex POV)

After Chloe left Lex tried to get some work done in his study. He wasted time yesterday feeling sorry for himself.

Instead of doing something about getting Chloe back he drank him self silly. When she showed up he was so relieved to have her with him.

Knowing the truth didn’t matter to him when she got into the bed with him and cuddled up next to him. Now that she was starting to tell him the truth it made Lex felt like she finally trusted him.

He thought she would run away from him if she knew that he wanted her to be with him forever but she wasn’t scared by it. It made his heart swell when she told him she felt the same way.

When they made love it wasn’t what he wanted it to be. He wanted to make sure he pleased her just as much as she was pleasing him. He wanted to make sure that she knew he needed her because he felt like she needed him. Her whispering in his ear that she loved him let believe that she did need him.

Chloe got dressed to leave and he didn’t want her to but he knew if she went then she could come back and tell him every thing. Letting her go at the moment was something he was willing to do to get the truth about all the missing pieces in his life.

It would be a relief to know who she was hiding and if this person could connect all the events he could never piece together.

All the things that associated with the meteor showers, his car accident when Clark saved him, his quest for the elements, the octagonal disk, the spaceship that landed during the second meteor shower; he hoped that Chloe would shed some light on these things.

He believed everything lead back to Clark but how he tied into those things Lex could never figure out. He had a strong feeling Chloe knew more about Clark then she letting on but didn’t trust him enough to let him know the truth.

After six months of being her friend and now her boyfriend he hoped that she learned to trust him. He wanted to believe that if the choice to lie to him again arose she wouldn’t.

If she didn’t tell him about Clark then whatever it was she was hiding would answer more questions then he could have answered in the past four years.

If she told him nothing then it didn’t change anything. He wanted her more then he wanted to know and hoped one day she would tell him everything.

Lex was at his desk taking care of all the emails he neglected yesterday when his father walked into the study.

His father never failed to show up when he was either happy or furious. These to extremes in emotion seemed to be his father’s favorite to play off of and catch him off guard.

It didn’t matter that last time they saw each other Lex almost choked him to death his father still oozed superiority over the room.

Lionel had to know he was interrupting him but went ahead and spoke anyway. “Come out of hiding?”

Lex took a deep breath and prepared him self for this talk. “What do you want dad. Here to tell me about what you’ve been planning.”

“I’m here letting you know I called a meeting with board. It’s scheduled a week from today.” Lionel motioned toward the bar for a drink.

“You can’t do that. You don’t own a single share of Luthor Corp stock you couldn’t call a meeting with the board without me knowing about it or without my permission.” Lex stayed seated and continued typing. Lionel wasn’t going to intimidate him.

“I can do anything I want when your too busy cuddling up next to Miss Sullivan.” Lionel took a sip from his glass and stood in front of Lex’s desk.

He feared that his father would know about last night but didn’t think his plans were that far along that if he missed one day of work he would strike. “Fine you scheduled a meeting. You have no power. If you are trying to get the board back on your side it won’t happen. You don’t have the money or shares to do anything.”

Lionel finished his drink and placed the glass on the desk. “I didn’t come here to tell you my strategy son. I just wanted you to know since you were so busy yesterday I'm sure you didn't get the message. Things are going to get very interesting in the next few weeks.”

Lionel finished and walked out leaving Lex to wonder what his father was going to do in that meeting. Lex called his PI and had them increase their surveillance on his father. What ever he was planning he wanted to know about it before the meeting next week.

Lex finished the last email in his inbox and his cell phone rang. It was Chloe calling and he had to pinch back the excitement that he was about to hear her voice.

He felt like such a sap lately and had a hard time not showing it to her. “I miss you … Meet you where?…Are you alright you sound up set?…Ok I’ll head out now….I love you.”

Lex didn’t like the tone of her voice at all. She sounded like she was on the verge of tears. She wanted to meet him in the caves and he knew this was it. That she was going to tell him the whole truth.

Lex grabbed is long black jacket and headed out to the caves.

***
Lex arrived at the caves and as he walked in he remembered the last time he was there.

He dragged Chloe there demanding she tell him the truth. Everything was falling apart that day not mention the sky was falling. Whenever he thought about that day he wanted nothing more then to take back what he done to her.

She could have been seriously hurt and he would have never been able to forgive himself for that. Now that they were together and she loved him he still couldn’t believe that he had her after the way he treated her but he was going to do anything to keep her. Even if she didn’t tell him the secret right now it didn’t matter he wanted her more.

Lex turned on the flashlight he brought with him as he approached the center room of the caves.

“Chloe!” He didn’t see her and keep walking back towards the stone table.

“Lex!” Chloe was standing against the stone table flashing her own flashlight in his direction then she ran to him.

She wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him into a soft kiss and Lex took her into arms and pulled her close. He was so glad that she was happy to see him but wanted to know why he was there and pulled out of the kiss.

“Why did you want to meet me here?” He studied her face and he could see she was flushed like she had been arguing with someone. Lex knew this look well since she often look this way when they were together.

Chloe pulled away from him and turned to stone table. “I went to see Clark.” She paused and Lex’s interest was definitely peaked after that admission.

“Did you have a fight with him?” Lex took a few steps to her hoping she would turn and look at him.

Chloe put her hands on the stone table and gripped the edges. “Yes we fought. Somehow Clark always manages to make me feel worthless and guilty.”

Lex wanted to seriously hurt Clark. Chloe was a loyal friend to him and he always treated her so badly. He tried to hold back his feelings and continue the conversation without her knowing. “What did he say?”

Chloe sighed and still keep her back to him. “He made me choose. Either I'm his friend or I'm with you.”

Lex felt fear twinge up his spine. If Chloe picked Clark he would lose everything. He done everything he could to prove that she could trust him that he loved her but Clark was such a big part of her life and he wasn’t sure that she would be willing to give up her friendship with him.

“Who did you choose?” The question was hard to get out and she took a long time to answers.

She didn’t choose him he thought. This was it she was telling him she didn’t think they could be together. “Chloe if you didn’t pick me please tell me.”

Chloe turned and her face was cringed in her familiar irritated look. “You idiot of course I picked you.”

Lex breathed out and closed his eyes trying to control his emotions. He didn’t know what he would do if she didn’t pick him.

He pulled her to him and pushed her into his chest. Chloe spoke muffled into his shirt. “I love you of course I choose you. I’m tried of living my life according to Clark Kent.”

Chloe leaned back and kissed him again. Lex let himself get lost in the kiss. Her choice to be with him let it finally sink in that she loved him. That nothing could keep her from him not even Clark Kent.

She stopped kissing him looking in his eyes. “I am ready to tell you the truth now.”

Lex wanted to hear this he had to but didn’t want her to tell him because she was angry with Clark. “Chloe I want you to tell me because you want to. I want you to tell me because you trust me with your secrets not because you want to get revenge on Clark.”

Chloe stepped back away from him. “I’m going to tell you because I trust you Lex. I have wanted to tell you for months now. I just didn’t want to betray Clark but lying to you is wrong to.”

Lex took her hand and grasped it. “Thank you for trusting me.”

“Ok here goes. “ Chloe shook her head then started to tell him the truth. ”I guess I should start with what happen at the manor. I came to the manor looking for Lana. She called me and sounded like she was terrified so Lois helped me get by the army guys and I made it to the manor.” Chloe paused and took a deep breath. She looked away from him.

“I saw that the vault had been tore open and walked over to the open door and saw…I saw…” Chloe stopped talking completely taking in several deep breaths.

“Who did you see?” Lex placed his hands on her shoulder trying to ease the truth out of her. He knew she would say Clark but just wanted to hear the truth.

Chloe turned to him and closed her eyes, sighed open them again and looked at him.

His face was clinched totally focused on what she was going to say. There was nothing holding her back now and Lex wanted to be with her and he loved her. She had just this one secret to get rid of so this secret couldn’t come between them again.

“I saw Clark” she rushed over his name and Lex eye's shifted up in surprise. “I guess you assumed that already?”

“Yes I did assume that but when I asked you then you lied to me. Please finish.” Chloe took his hand and gripped it tightly like she was grounding her self before she spoke.

“Clark was passed out in front of the vault. It looked like the statue that had pieces of meteor rocks in them and they were glowing. Clark was wincing on the floor in pain. I pulled him away from the vault and you came into the study. Then…” Lex finished the rest for her.

“I asked you what happen to the element and you told me you didn’t know. Then I dragged you to the cave.” Lex shook his head and used his free had to rub his forehead. He still felt guilty for taking her to cave. “I took you from your father. I shouldn’t have done that. You need to be with your family. You should have been with your father he was dying.”

Chloe grabbed his hand pulled it from his face. “Its ok Lex we have already gone over that. We both know that my father was injured and there was nothing that I could have done about that. I miss my father so much but I have realized that I couldn’t have saved him. Just let me finish.” He nodded again and put his focus back on Chloe. “When we got to the caves and saw the bright light coming from the back chamber I knew Clark was in there.”

Lex shook his head in disbelief “How did you know? Are you telling me that Clark had all the stones or that he understood what the symbols mean in the caves? How did he remove the vault door? How did he leave the room so quickly without me seeing him?” Lex didn’t mean to ask so many questions but he had so many.

“Ok this part is really hard please don’t say anything till I finish.” Chloe took a deep breath.

“Clark isn’t human. He came to earth during the first meteor shower and the Kents found him. He is from a plant called krypton.” Chloe took another deep breath.

This was too much. Lex knew Clark was something but from another planet never crossed his mind. “Wait… wait Chloe. Clark is a…” Lex tried to interrupt her but Chloe countering quickly.

“No listen first. I have to tell you that I have know Clark’s secret for sometime he just didn’t know that knew. Alicia showed me. We were in the car driving fast and she called Clark told him we were in danger. Then she used her meteor freak powers to get us out of the car before it crashed. Clark zoomed in out of no where and caught the car like it was nothing and sped off. He has these abilities and if you think about it I know it will make sense to you what those abilities are.” Chloe was taking in short breaths and waited for him to say something.

Lex let go of her hand and started pacing the room. Everything that had happened to him it always seemed like Clark saved the day and it was starting to make perfect sense how he done it.

“Clark’s and alien?” Lex kept repeating that walking back and forth across the room.

Then in an instant everything that he never understood piece it self together.

Clark was in the cave that day during the second meteor shower so he took the stone from his vault. If he could catch a car then he could have tossed the vault door off like it was nothing.

Clark stole the spaceship. He took it with some sort of super speed and that’s why he didn’t see it on the cameras. He lifted it up just as easily as taking the vault door off.

That’s how Clark survived the car crash. How he always managed to be in one place and then totally gone in a second. How Clark survived so many events that no one ever could. Every time Clark made and excuse as to how he got involved in these things it was a lie.

Lex was pacing back and forth in the cave and Chloe stood in his path trying to get him to focus on her. “Lex there is more but I can’t stress how important this secret is to Clark. He uses his abilities to help people and I think he wants to keep it a secret so people won’t try manipulating him for their own purposes.”

Lex pulled away from her. “What are you saying that he thinks I would try to use his powers for my own personal gain?”

While Lex waited for an answer Clark super sped into the caves. They didn’t see him right away but heard him calling out from the cave entrance.

“Chloe!” Clark called out walking into the back chamber.

Lex saw Clark but really was seeing him for the first time now that he knew the secret. At that moment he didn’t want him anywhere near Chloe after the way he made her feel. “Clark? What are you doing here?”

Chloe stepped in between them and approached Clark. “We are done talking Clark. There is nothing else to say are friendship is over.”

“Chloe I have been looking everywhere for you. Tell me you didn’t tell him anything yet.” Clark grabbed Chloe shoulders.

Chloe almost spit his face. “I doesn’t matter what I did this friendship is over.” Clark tightened his grip on her.

Lex jumped in between them and pushed Clark’s hands off her. “Get your hands off of her.”

“Stay out of this Lex. This is between me and Chloe.” Clark tried to push pass him toward Chloe but Lex moved in his way.

“Move out of my way Lex.” Clark stared him down.

Lex wasn’t going to give into Clark no matter how many abilities he had. “No your not getting anywhere near her. I think you have done enough making her feel bad about herself.”

Clark grabbed Lex and forced him back to nearest cave wall making him drop his flashlight. “This is all your fault. You turned Chloe against me. You’re only going to hurt her why can’t you just leave her alone. You are going to drag her down with you.”

Lex couldn’t break free from Clark’s grip. He always felt that Clark was stronger then any normal man and now he knew why. “It’s her choice. Why would she want to be friends with you? You treat her like she disposable. Like she doesn’t matter.”

Lex kept thinking about all the times something was moved, broken, or tore open that could never be explained. Clark had done all those things.

No matter what Lex did to be his friend he never trusted him enough to tell him the truth and he was punishing Chloe for it now by holding his friendship hostage because she didn’t take his side.

Clark yanked him back against the wall again.”I have never treated Chloe that way but you would. You just want to know my secret that’s it. You don’t care about her you don’t love her.”

Lex still couldn’t move Clark was holding him breathing heavily on Lex 's face.

Lex saw Chloe trying to pull Clark off of him. “Clark let him go. Stop it Clark.” She pulled on his arm trying to get him to release his hold.

“Chloe he ruins everything. He’ll ruin you.” Clark was focused on Lex. He didn’t move at all as Chloe yanked down on him.

Lex was sweating now and the look Clark had was the same from the day Chloe told him the truth about him, ready to fight, ready to kill him for tainting his friend. “I would never hurt Chloe. That job is left up to you Clark.”

Clark roared, let go of Lex, and reared his arm back in a fist ready to punch him. Chloe tried to grab his arm and Clark didn’t realize what he was doing put he pushed her back.

He pushed her back with super strength and tossed her to the other side of the cave.

Lex couldn’t see what he did because Clark super sped the punch and hit Lex in the nose.

Lex fell to floor and in pain. He clutched his nose in his hands cursing Clark for breaking it trying to keep the blood from going everywhere.

He looked up at Clark and he was heaving out breaths. “I love Chloe. I won’t let you destroy her.”

Lex forgot about his nose and looked up to see where Chloe was. She was yelling before trying to help him but now it was like she wasn’t there.

Lex heaved up covered in blood dripping from his nose and grabbed his flashlight. “Chloe?!”

Clark must have gotten the same feeling that he did because his eyes widen “Oh God I didn’t mean to.” Clark whirled around and ran to the other side of cave.

Now that Clark was out of his way Lex could see Chloe limp on the floor.

“Chloe! Chloe! Chloe!” Lex yelled and ran to her heading off Clark. He knelt down to her and felt her pulse. It was weak but it was there.

“What did you do?!” Lex yelled looking at Clark then turning his attention back to Chloe’s limp body on the cave floor.

He tried to stay calm. He took her hand and tried waking her. “Chloe? Love wake up. You have to wake up.”

His mind started racing. What if she didn’t wake up, what if Clark had taken her away from him forever?

“I didn’t mean to....” Clark said trying to get to Chloe.

Lex turned to Clark. “Look at what you did. She needs help. Take her to the hospital now.”

She needed medical attention and knew he had the ability to get her there quickly. He wasn’t going to lose her when he final had everything from her; her trust and her love.

“We can drive your car.” Clark took a few nervous steps back in shock at what he had done and Lex couldn’t believe he was still trying to keep the secret after hurting her.

“I know the truth Clark.” Lex let go of Chloe’s hand and turned to Clark lunging at him grabbing his collar. “Pick her up now. You tossed her across the room. You are going to fix this now.”

Clark was fumbling about still in shock. Lex shook him tried to get him to come to. “You fucking idiot snap out of it. Pick her up!”

Clark pulled away from Lex and moved to Chloe taking her into his arms but he paused again.

“Go what are you waiting for.” Lex wanted to kill him for doing this to her. Her breathing was shallow and didn’t have time for him to hesitate. “Go use your super speed or whatever you call it.”

Clark look at Chloe seeing her limp in his arms then sped off faster then a speeding bullet in front of Lex.

Lex nearly fell over in shock at what he just saw. He knew the truth but seeing it took him back. He ran out of the cave thinking that it was a trick that Clark didn’t just do what he did but it was no trick he was gone.

Chloe told him the truth and now she was going to lose her because she trusted him.

Lex had to push these thoughts away because Chloe was hurt; he had to make sure she would be alright.

Chapter 15 Part 2
Revelation (Lex POV)

“I need you to fly him in right away.” Lex was driving from the caves to Smallville hospital. “I don’t care if he is on vacation get him on the damn plane.” He was trying to fly in a specialist for Chloe from Metropolis. Nothing mattered at that moment other then Chloe being alright.

His nose stop bleeding but it was still throbbing. Clark really did a number on him with that punch.

Lex arrived at the Smallville hospital and ran into the ER looking for Clark. What he knew now he couldn’t process yet because Chloe’s well being was more important.

The nurses stopped him before he could continue his search. They wouldn’t let him get past until they looked at his nose.

“Move you incompetent fools.” As he was yelling at them to get out his way he saw Clark talking to a doctor. He pushed the nurses out of the way and rushed to him. The doctor finished talking to Clark and walked away.

“Where is she?” He said pulling him to turn and look at him.

“They are still looking at her. She hasn’t woken up yet. I called Lois. We can take care of her.” Clark seemed calmer now and not at all how he was in the cave. “I didn’t mean to her hurt. I couldn’t control…”

Lex wasn’t going to listen to this. This was the last straw with him and Clark. All his lies and mistrust he could no longer tolerate. Chloe oould be in a coma because of him and there was nothing that Clark could do in Lex's mind to come back from hurting her.

“Leave now. I will take care of Chloe. She doesn’t need you. You keep claiming I am the one that is going to hurt her and look at what you’ve done. You pushed her so hard she flew across the room.” Lex breathed in and tried to calm down. He was yelling in the hospital like a manic.

Lex looked at Clark and saw all the pieces that came together in the cave. He tried to remembered what Chloe said about the meteor rocks. Clark was wincing and they were glowing in the vault. Lex tried to recall ever seeing Clark do this.

Anytime meteor rocks were around Clark would back away from them. The meteor rocks nust be a weakest; they could hurt him or stop him.

He leaned in close to Clark. “I know what you are. Chloe told me everything if she is not alright I promise I’ll make your life a living hell. I know everything even your weakness. Now tell me where she is.”

“Lex it doesn’t have to be like this. Chloe is important to both of us.” Clark tried backing away but Lex lunged at him like he did in the cave.

“Don’t even try it Clark. You don’t care about Chloe. She wanted you to be happy for her but you spit in her face. You hate me that much that you let Chloe get hurt. Don’t try and claim you care. Just tell me where she is!”

“I didn’t mean to hurt her. I was trying to… I can’t believe that she’s…that I could” Clark started tearing up and it fueled Lex’s rage.

He yanked on his collar. “You don’t get to cry Clark. You brought this on yourself. If you trusted her then she wouldn’t be here. Tell me where she is!”

“Mr. Kent.” The doctor called out to Clark. Lex let him go and approached the doctor.

“You can talk to me about Chloe Sullivan.” Lex stood between the doctor and Clark.

“Mr. Luthor your specialist just arrived and it looks like she going to be fine it was a mild concussion. There are some bruises on her but other then that Miss Sullivan will be ok. She is starting to wake up but we want to keep her overnight and make sure thing are ok. Sir do you need someone to look at your nose.”

Lex looked like hell covered in blood and his nose was throbbing in pain but he had to see Chloe.

He sighed relieved that she was ok. “I will after I see her.”

“Sir she is still in with the specialist. You should take sometime and let me look at you.”

“I can sit with her until you get there.” Clark tried to walk pass Lex.

“No! I told you to leave. I will take care of her now” Lex blocked his way.

“I’ll go call Lois back. She will want to know that Chloe is ok.” Clark backed off and headed back to the nurse's station.

He turned his attention back to the doctor. “Where is she?”

“I'll lead you down then you have to let me look at your nose.” Lex followed the doctor down the hall.

He walked in and she still looked like she did when they were in the cave; limp and still. The doctor from Metropolis was walking out as he was walking to the room. They exchanged a few words and he told him what the other doctor said.

Chloe must have heard him talking and he heard her mummer his name. “Lex? Are you there.”

Lex finished the conversation quickly and walked over to her. “Love it’s me. I am here now.”

She seemed dazed and could only partially open her eyes at first. “What happened?”

Lex grasped her hand and sighed. “You told me about Clark. Then he came in got angry and pushed you.”

She got her eyes open finally and looked at him. “You’re bleeding. He hit you.” Chloe tried to reach up with her other hand to touch his nose and Lex laid it back on the bed.

“I’m fine. I think he broke my nose. He could have killed you.” Lex didn’t want her to be thinking about him and he wanted to take care of her.

“Lex you need a doctor.” Chloe let go of his hand and tried to get up.

He pushed her back down. “I’ll get a doctor if you promise to stay put.”

Chloe nodded and laid back down. “Lex I’m sorry.”

He didn’t know what she was talking about. Now that he knew she was hiding Clark it wasn’t that bit a deal. She was being his friend and trying to protect his secret. She didn’t trust him enough to tell him and Clark punished her for it. “Sorry for what? You didn’t do anything wrong.”

Chloe tried sitting up again and Lex nudged her back down. “I should tell you the rest. I should tell the truth.”

“That can wait. You need to worry about getting better.” Chloe finally listened and lay back in the bed.

“Why did Clark do this? He can’t possible think of you this badly to do this.” Chloe shifted back on the pillows tried to get comfortable.

“I hate him for what he did to you. Don’t worry about Clark. He won’t hurt you again.” He kissed her forehead.

Chloe pulled on his hand as he lifted away from her. “You missed. I know you’re all bloody but I need a real kiss.”

Lex smiled and leaned back over to kiss her lips. He pulled back and looked at her so relieved she wasn’t seriously hurt; that he didn’t lose her.

“I didn’t think telling you the truth would cause a war. I shouldn’t have gone to see him today. I should have…” Lex cut in before she could finish. He wasn’t going let her feel bad about her self. This was Clark’s fault not hers.

“Stop talking like that. You did what you thought was the right. This is Clark’s fault for not trusting you. I don’t want you to feel like you caused any of this. He made a choice to be against you.” He placed his other hand over her hand holding his.

“I wouldn’t change anything. I would still tell you the truth. I love you Lex. I just wish people could understand that.”

“I love you too.” Just as Lex was going to kiss Chloe again Lois came in the room.

“Chloe! Clark scared the shit out of me. He said that you were hurt. What happen?” Lois walked over to the other side of the bed and took Chloe’s other hand then looked at Lex. “Damn Lex you look like hell. What happen to you?”

Chloe let go of Lex’s hand. “She’s right. Go see the doctor about your nose. Lois will stay with me until you get back.”

“Lois I won’t be long.” Lex kissed Chloe again and started to leave.

“I can take care of her but I might need to see a doctor if the two of you start making out in front me.” Lois smirked at Lex and he just let it go for now. Lois never stopped hating him.

He walked out to find the doctor tohave his nose looked at.

Everything Clark had been hiding was out in the open now. Lex felt like he let Chloe get hurt and had to protect her so this wouldn’t happen again. He would have to get back at Clark for putting in this position. Making her choose wasn’t fair to Chloe.

He pushed that thought back for the moment to concentrate on what he was going to do next. Chloe chooses him and he had what he really wanted for once in his life.

Chapter 16
Choice (Chloe POV)

It was two days before Christmas and Chloe pulled up into the drive way of the Kent farm. She wanted to drop off gifts for Martha and Jonathan. No matter what was happening between her and Clark they were good people that she wanted to keep them in her life.

She walked up the few steps to their front door and knocked waiting for someone to answer. While she waited she felt a twinge of pain in her back. Since leaving the hospital they found that she had a slip disk in her back and she was in a lot of pain most days.

The door opened and Martha Kent answered with a huge smile on her face opening her arms to Chloe. “Come in come in. I was hoping to see you tonight at the party.”

Martha embraced her then let Chloe go and she walked into the Kent home with two gifts in hand. “I don’t think that it’s a good idea if I come to the party but I still have gifts for you and Mr. Kent and wanted you to have them.”

“You didn’t have to but wait right here I have something for you to.” Martha ran up stairs and Chloe took a seat at a stool in the kitchen but as soon as she sat she had to get up felling that twinge in her back again.

These back problem were a nightmare. She had to see a chiropractor every day in Metropolis and it was definitely putting a strain on her sex life with Lex since her back kept her from feeling comfortable in certain positions.

Martha came back down with a two neatly wrapped boxes for Chloe. “Here you go. I have one for Lex as well.” They exchanged boxes and she took a seat at the stool next to her.

“I really wish you would reconsidering coming. It will be so strange having the party this year without your father and now you won’t be coming as well.”

“I know. My father loved the Kent Holiday Party. He always felt that you and Mr. Kent were good friend to have. Unless Lex can come with me I don’t think I can make it.” Chloe tried to hold back tears thinking of her father. The holidays were making her miss him more then ever.

Martha sighed and took her hand into hers. “I don’t think it’s a good idea to bring Lex. I really wish that you and Clark would tell me what happen to you when you got hurt. Clark has been torn up about it.”

Clark should be torn about it Chloe wanted to say but she had no grudges with Mrs. Kent. “If you want to know what happened Clark should tell you. I just wish he wasn’t driving this wedge between us but he is. I just want you to know that I still want to keep in touch with you and Mr. Kent no matter what happens to me and Clark.”

Martha embraced Chloe and pulled back on her giving her that warm motherly smile. “I want you to know no matter what Jonathan and I are here for you. I hope you are making the right decision about you and Lex.”

Chloe didn’t want start to defending her love for Lex to Martha again or anyone else. “I’m fine I promise. I really should get going. Happy Holidays.” Chloe hugged Martha again and head out to her car.

Just as she was leaving Lana Lang pulled up in her SUV. She hopped out of the car that was way to big for her and pulled out several bags that Chloe assumed were for the party.

She turned and saw Chloe walking to towards her car. “Chloe Happy Holidays.” Lana put the bags down and walked over to her.

Chloe rolled her eyes and prepared to get her lecture from Lana Lang. “Happy Holidays Lana.”

“What are you doing here? Did you change your mind about coming to the party?” Lana took a few nervous steps back from Chloe.

“No, I just wanted to drop some gifts off for the Mr. and Mrs. Kent.” Chloe tried to walk to her car but Lana still had something to say.

“I really wish that you wouldn’t let Lex control you like this.”

Chloe felt her face catch on fire and turn bright red. “Lex isn’t controlling me. You have no room to judge my relationship. If you want to talk about people and their problems let's discuss you and Clark. Did he tell you what he has been hiding yet?”

Lana let out an aggravated sigh. “That’s not what I meant. I just mean I really wish we could all go back to being friends. Lex is to blame for all of this.”

That was it Chloe couldn’t take anymore of the world a according to Lana Lang. “Is that what you think we were Lana. Friends!”

Chloe took a few steps toward Lana almost getting right in her face. ”We were never friends. You don’t trust me. In fact I know you hate me because Clark has always confined in me. Don’t you dare blame Lex for what is happening? You’re just jealous that he doesn’t lie to me like Clark lies to you. That we are closer in a few months then you have ever been with Clark in the five years the two of you have played this will they won’t they crap. Lana the world isn’t all back and white like you would like it to be. Clark is to blame more then anyone for what is going on.” Chloe took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

She pushed her hair out her face exposing her new bracelet.

“I don’t know what happen with you guys but I’m sorry you feel that way Chloe. I just want us to try and go back to the way things were. That’s a nice bracelet. Other then the diamonds those are interesting green stones. Is it a gift from Lex?” Lana said prying into her business.

Chloe clutched the bracelet knowing the stones were meteor rocks. Lex gave her this bracelet a few days ago as and early Christmas gift. He wanted to keep Clark away from her and Chloe didn’t argue with him about.

She didn’t want to see Clark either. “Yeah it is a gift from him. He always gets the best.” Chloe smirked at Lana knowing she was jealous of the gift.

“Lana I think we well never be friends the way you want or the why you thought we were. I have to go. Happy Holidays Lana.” Chloe turned to leave and wasn’t going to stop this time no matter what Lana had to say.

“Happy holidays Chloe.” Lana shouted behind her.

Chloe was so relieved to be away from Lana Lang. Lana was nothing but a constant reminder of her insecurities and she didn’t want to have to see her again.

She really did have to get going because Lois was waiting for her. She started the red beetle tried to squirm and get her back in control then drove off to met Lois.

***

Once she arrived at her destination she got out of the car and walked toward Lois with her hands high on her hips holding a few white roses. “I didn’t think you were coming.”

“Sorry I got held up by Lana Lang.” Chloe rolled her eyes at the thought of Lana.

“Well you could have called it's cold out here.” Lois and her walked into the cemetery gates and headed to her father’s grave.

Chloe wanted to be with her father and this was the closest thing she could think of to do.

They made it to his grave and Lois placed the flowers next to it. The head stone was a beautiful black marble and the sight of it made Chloe start to tear up.

Lois clutched her shoulders. “You need a few minutes alone?”

Chloe nodded and Lois started to leave. “I won’t be far if you need me.”

Chloe waited until Lois was out of ear shot and spoke to her father. “Hi daddy. I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to you. I really miss you and wish you were here. Let me tell what has been happening.”

Chloe got down on here knees in front of the head stone and continued talking to her father as if he were there.

“I got my grades for the semester and I managed to pass my finals even though everything else was falling apart. I finished my book and sent it off to several publishing companies. I’m actually considering starting up one of my own with the money you left me. My financial advisors say it possible and of course Lex offered money. Lex and I are moving in together at the start of the New Year. I know that your thinking it may be to fast but Lex really loves me and I love him we are going to be fine. I know you thought that Clark and I would be friends forever but I don’t think our friendship can ever be repaired. What else can I say?... I just miss you daddy. I just want you here with me” Chloe touched the head stone and a few tears flowed from her eyes.

She sat for a few moments remembering her father then got up to leave. Lois was waiting for here at the gate shivering a little, leaning against Chloe’s car and Chloe shook here head at her because it was her tiny coat keeping her cold.

“Thank you for coming with me. Lex was really busy today. He wanted to finish up so he can spend Christmas Eve with me.”

“Yeah he has been rather preoccupied lately. What’s up with that?”

Lex was busy lately. Chloe knew he was working hard trying to keep his father from taking over Luthor Corp. Somehow Lionel had and account overseas that Lex over looked when he took over his fathers assets. Lionel used the money to take out several loans and purchase as much Luthor Corp stock as he could.

Chloe was worried and tried to offer Lex her help to stop him but he didn’t want it. He told her that he would handle it that Lionel wasn’t going to get very far with the money he had.

Lex was also extremely obsessed with putting together all the missing pieces of Clark Kent. Any event he could never explain now he could and had to. Now that he knew what the meteor rocks were he tripled the team of scientist he had working on the meteor showers trying to find the planet they came from and what things they had to offer.

All of these things Lex shared with her. He didn’t hide what was going on with him and took her help and advice when it came to most of it. Lex was being more open with her now that she had told him Clark’s secret.

Lex was slipping into these dark moods lately as well and Chloe didn’t know what to do about it. She tried to keep him grounded and not let him slip completely away.

“It’s nothing Lois. Don’t worry about me. Lex and I are fine.” Chloe hugged Lois.

“Ok. I just wish you guys were coming to the Kent party. Whatever happened with you him and Clark all three of you should get over yourself.”

Lois pulled back on her and gave Chloe a smug look. “Smallville’s really sorry for whatever he did that you won’t tell me about.”

“Lois don’t start this again. I made my choice and I am sticking with it.” Chloe was tied of defending her self to people.

Lex loved her and she wasn’t going to leave him because Clark Kent thought he was dangerous.

“Ok. It’s almost Christmas I’ll try and be good for Santa's sake.” Lois gave Chloe another hug. “I will see you at Lex’s mansion on Christmas for dinner right.”

“Yes and you better behave. He really thinks that you are going to hate him forever.”

“I will. Someone has got to keep him on his toes when comes to you. I just want to make sure he takes care of you.” Lois walked off to her car to leave.

“I can take care of my self. Lex is just a really good back up.” Chloe opened her car door, got in and drove off back to Metropolis.

***
She walked into her apartment and Clark Kent was sitting on her sofa waiting for her.

“What the hell are you doing here!” Chloe was furious and slammed the door closed.

She stood at the door waiting for him to answer just inches away from letting the meteor rocks on her bracelet affect Clark.

“Chloe please don’t be mad. I wanted to talk to you. This was the only way I could do it.” Clark stood up but didn’t get any closer to her.

“Is this your idea of getting my trust and friendship back? By breaking into my home?” Chloe took a step forward and then back.

She wasn’t sure if she wanted to use the bracelet on Clark. When Lex gave it to her she never thought she would have to but now that Clark had broken into her home she wanted to but still had her douhts.

“I’m sorry. I did break in but Chloe I had to talk to you. Did you know Lex has been investigating me like crazy. Is he going to expose my secret to the world?” Clark walked around the coffee table and felt the first twinge of the effect of the meteor rocks.

Chloe held her wrist out to him and Clark feel over on the floor. “Chloe what… What are you wearing?”

“You know what it is Clark. Lex wanted to keep you way from me. I told him he had no reason to worry but you being here now is exactly what he was trying to avoided."

She put her wrist down but Clark was still on the floor in pain. " I know what Lex is doing. He just wants to understand what has happened in his life. He’s not going to expose you. It’s just another thing he’s doing for you when he doesn’t have to. When you don’t trust him.” Chloe walked to the other side of the sofa away from Clark at the space leading to the kitchen.

Clark was out of range of the rocks and got up inching back to the door. “Chloe I can’t believe you are wearing that. What is Lex doing to you? The Chloe I know would never hurt people like this.”

Chloe walked back to towards Clark. He wasn’t going to treat her like this again. Lex wasn’t doing anything to her this is who she was.

“And the Clark Kent I thought I knew wouldn’t toss me across the room.”

Clark fell to the floor wincing in pain “Chloe please stop. I didn’t mean to hurt you. I overreacted. I’m sorry. How many times can I say it before you believe me.” Clark let out some pained sighs curling up into the fetal position.

Chloe stood over him and the bracelet was glowing on her wrist. She didn’t know why but she wanted to hurt Clark now. She wanted to hurt him the way he always hurt her.

Making her feel useless, worthless, disposable, untrustworthy, all these things all those years; she wanted him to fell her pain. She wanted him to be in pain and know what it meant to cross her to her hurt.

She wanted to let him know she wasn’t going to let him do it anymore. “No Clark I won’t stop. It’s your turn to feel the way you make me feel. This is how my back feels everyday sometimes worse because of you. I can’t even make love to Lex the way I want to because of what you did to me in that cave. I'm so sick of you Clark and your holier then thou attitude. I told you this friendhip is over.”

Chloe inched the bracelet closer to Clark on the floor and he screamed out in pain. While she was torturing him Lex walked into the apartment. He had a set of keys now and came and went when he pleased.

He studied her face and Chloe knew it was clinched almost smirking enjoying what she was doing to Clark.

“Chloe what’s going on?” Lex stepped over Clark’s body and stood next to her. “Did you let him in here?” Lex threw is suit coat off towards the sofa staring her down.

She turned her attention to Lex while Clark was still wincing in pain under the control of the meteor rocks on her bracelet. “No! He broken in. He broken in demanding I talk to him. I made a choice Lex. I love you. I wouldn’t see Clark behind your back.”

Lex brushed his thumb across her cheek then knelt down to Clark. “I thought I warned you but you don’t listen do you.” Chloe saw Lex pulling a box out from his pants pocket. She knew it was holding a ring with a meteor rock as the setting.

He put the ring on in front of Clark and he shouted again. “Stop… please… Chloe please… don’t do this!”

Lex picked Clark up off the floor and punched with the ring sending him back to the door. “Stop begging Clark. You heard her. She made her choice.” He picked him up half way again and started hitting him over and over again with his ringed fist.

Chloe didn’t know what was going but she knew it had to stop. She wanted Clark in pain but she didn’t want to kill him.

“Lex that’s enough.” She moved behind him and tried to stop him.

“He has to know. I won’t let him hurt you again.” Lex kept hitting him and Clark was starting to lose consciousness.

“Lex he knows. Just let him leave.” Chloe put her hands on his shoulders trying to relax them.

Lex let Clark go and he fell over. He stood up out of breath and looked at Chloe. She felt heat radiating off him as his raged boiled over.

Chloe pulled him back away from Clark to stand behind the sofa so he could get up.

As soon as they were far enough away Clark jumped up. He was a little worn but once the meteor rocks were gone it was like nothing happened to him.

She grasped Lex’s hand and they both looked at Clark staring at them not believing what just happen.

“Get out Clark and don’t do this again. This friendship is over” Chloe said and gripped Lex hand tighter for strength.

Clark turned to open the door. “I guess I have really lost you Chloe. I don’t want things to be like this but if you’re with Lex you’re my enemy. I never thought that it would end up like this.” Clark turned to leave and closed the door behind him.

Chloe put her attention back on Lex still breathing heavy trying to get his control back. He looked so good to her right now and she had to have him. “I want you to fuck me.”

Lex turned to her and is eyes widen. “What. You never say that. No.”

Chloe pulled off her jacket. She still had everything on coming from outside. “I know but that’s how I feel right now. I want you to fuck me.”

She kept undressing pulling off her sweater and undid her boots then threw them off.

She was going for her pants and Lex stopped her. “Your back. I want you to. I wasn’t going to say it but the look on your face when I got here was nothing I had ever seen on you before. You looked the sexist I have ever seen you.”

“I know. You beating on Clark it was getting me wet for you. All the macho, caveman protect woman stuff really turned me on. Don’t worry about my back just fuck me.” Chloe lunged at Lex and grabbed his bald head pulling him into a kiss.

Lex pulled her bra off and caught one her breast in his hands then kneaded it.

Chloe wanted him more then anything right now. She loved how they had sex. That he was sweet and attentive but right now that’s not what she need. She wanted him to be rough with her even if it was going to hurt her back.

She clawed as his scalp pressing her self closer to him feeling him getting hard and Lex pulled out the kiss. “I don’t want you like this.”

Chloe faced cringed up confused. She could feel in his pants he wanted her like this. “Stop thinking about this Lex. Just let it happen. Fuck me now!”

She undid his pants and dropped them down then dropped to her knees before he could stop her. She grabbed his cock and it was already hard then took all of him into her mouth.

He fisted her hair and Chloe started bobbing her head up and down his length. She had some more practice since doing this the first time and had a better understanding of what he wanted.

She grabbed his balls and softly knead them in her hand then increased the power at which she was sucking on his cock hollowing out her cheeks taking him in and out of her mouth almost completely.

“Fuck! Chloe! Fuck yeah!” He shouted grabbing her shoulders for leverage so he wouldn't fall over.

She could feel his balls drawing up in her hand and thought he was going to come for her like this but he stopped her pulling her mouth away from him.

He picked her up and kissed her again. This time harder more urgently sliding his tongue into her mouth let it play with hers.

Chloe reached back to claw at his head and Lex kissed is way down to her breast sucking on her nipple already fully erect.

“That’s enough foreplay. Fuck me!” She shouted

Lex yanked her pants down taking her panties with them then turned her to the back of the sofa and bent her over. He lifted her to his cock and plunged into her. Chloe let out a loud cry feeling him fill her up.

They stop using condoms a few weeks ago since she was on birth control and trusted Lex fully now. She didn’t want anything between them any more.

“Fuck me…fuck me…fuck me…” She kept chanting pushing her ass into him trying to get him going.

Chloe was letting out harsh breaths after each chant and grabbing the edge of the sofa trying to hold on while Lex reared back then in again looking for her g- spot.

“Ahh!” She shouted once he found it then pounded into her grunting like an animal.

“Harder... harder damnit.” Chloe was losing control of her self shouting at Lex and he seemed to enjoy it.

He gripped her ass and hit her harder. “This is what you want? Me to fuck you like this? Tell me Chloe!”

“Yeah Lex! Yeah! Fuck me!” Chloe lost control of her breathing she was taking in short breaths and started to feel dizzy. Her back started to twinge but she ignored the pain for now.

“Breath…in deeper breaths.” Lex instructed her leaning over slightly and reach down to find her clit then pushed into it.

Chloe tried to do what he said and felt him touching her then slammed back into him once he hit her clit. Her orgasm was close now and she was pushing back on him wilding trying to get to her peak.

Lex gripping down on her ass with one hand and the other started to rub at her clit.

“Oh God! Lex!” Chloe shouted and pushed back on Lex coming harder then she ever had with him.

“Fuck…fuck…fuck…” He shouted then pushed into her pulsing channel coming in short jerks inside her.

They both stood still for a moment then Lex pulled her up to him. She knew he still had his shirt on but she could feel how hot his skin was under it.

“I love you” she managed to say out of breath.

“I love you too.” Lex replied and pushed light kiss into her shoulder.

Chloe would be paying for this later on to night when her back started hurting but she had what she wanted. She made a choice and was sticking to it.

Clark told her she was her enemy and she expected her new role in his life.

She someone how felt that it would come to this for the two of them and now that it happened she wasn’t turning back. Her life was settled and she had what she really wanted.

Chapter 17
What I really want… (Lex POV)

Lex reached over to Chloe’s side of the bed and didn’t feel anything but pillows. He was lying on his stomach and turned over to sit up. After he scanned the room she was no where to be seen.

It was Christmas Eve and it would be the first one Lex was looking forward to since his mother died.

Yesterday was intense for them both and he was worried that Chloe would turn away from him after he lost control on Clark. She did the opposite and wanted him to fuck her senseless and he preceded to do so the rest of the day after they started behind the sofa.

When he came to see her she was torturing Clark and it looked like she was enjoying it. He never saw her that way and he was strangely aroused by it.

Her disappearance this morning he hoped wasn’t because of how she acted yesterday. Lex didn’t want her to think that she went to far. She was protecting herself.

“Chloe!” Lex got up out of bed to continue his search for her. He was naked and grabbed the pants he tossed on the floor yesterday. After they exhausted themselves at her apartment Chloe wanted to come back to the mansion.

Lex walked around the entire bedroom checking the master bathroom, the walkin closet and she wasn’t there. HE was so franticly looking for her he didn't notice her things were no longer hanging in the closet or in the shower caddy in the bathroom.

He made his way to the study hoping she was there. She was sitting on the sofa staring at the Christmas tree they put up together a few weeks ago.

When he was in full view of her he saw she had her overnight bag packet. “Where are you going?”

Chloe turned to him and she looked like she’d been crying. “I’m going home.”

Lex sat next to her and tried to touch her put she scooted away from him. “What’s wrong Chloe? Why are you going?” He tried to sit closer to her and she got up and grabbed her bag.

“I’m sorry. I can’t stay here. Yesterday…yesterday was too much for me. I have never acted that way before. I didn’t like. I don’t like what this relationship is doing to me. I don’t want to be together anymore. I can’t let you control me like this.”

Lex couldn’t believe she was saying this. That she was turning her back him. She made her choice and now she was taking it backing.

“Where is this coming from? You were fine yesterday now you want to leave. Chloe I love you.” He got up and grabbed her trying to make her stay. “Are you telling me you don’t love me anymore?”

Chloe looked at him and started to cry. “No, but loving you is not worth losing myself.” She tried to struggle out of his arms. “Lex let go. Let go”

He tightened his grip on her and couldn’t let her leave wouldn’t let her leave. He had what he really wanted and couldn’t just give up on it.

“You’re being unreasonable. I don’t want to control you. You didn’t have to do what you did yesterday to Clark but you did. Don’t be afraid of it Chloe. You were only protecting yourself from him.”

She kept squirming in his grip trying to get away crying letting out short sobs. “That wasn’t me yesterday. I would never do that. It’s you that made me do it. I don’t want to lose myself in darkness with you. I have seen it in you lately. Your obsession with work and Clark’s secrets. It’s turning you into someone I can’t love and you’re trying to change me into a crazed obsessed person too.”

Lex let her go. He took several nervous steps away from her. This wasn’t happening it couldn’t be.

“I have to go. I can’t stay here any longer.” Chloe started to leave and Lex didn’t notice at first he was in such a trace after what she said.

When he got control of himself he saw her walking out the door. “Chloe wait. Chloe…” He shouted after her. When he opened the door leading to the hallway she was standing there with Clark.

Lex took in several deep breaths. “What are you doing here Clark?”

“I’m taking Chloe home. She asked me to come and get her.” Clark took Chloe's hand leading her out of the mansion.

Lex tried to stop them but Clark super speed away with Chloe. He screamed out to her but it was no use she was gone. Lex buried his face in hands completely lost now that she was gone. Now that she was gone with Clark.

Just when he thought she vanished from his life forever he heard her calling his name in the distance.

***

“Lex wake up! You’re talking in your sleep.” Chloe shouted.

“Chloe!” Lex jerked up in the seat of the car. He looked over to the driver’s side and Chloe was focused on the highway ahead of her.

“Are you ok? You were talking in your sleep. I told you needed to let me drive. If you drove we be in a ditch somewhere. You have been working yourself to death.” Chloe had both hands on the wheel and reached one out to pap his leg and diamond and kryptonite bracelet dangled from her wrist.

Lex got a grip on himself and realized he was dreaming. Chloe hadn’t left him.

It was six months since that Christmas Eve and it was as close to a perfect Christmas that Lex had in years. Minus having Christmas dinner with Lois challenging him evey time he said something.

After the holidays she did move in with him like she said she would. It took him forever to ask but after Chloe told him everything about Clark she wasn’t hiding anything anymore.

He even told her about Lana and Jason's mother after the New Year trying to show her how much he trusted her now. Her reaction was to turn Lana in but his invlovement kept her from doing it.

Lex tried his best to make sure he didn’t hide anything from her. He never wanted to lie to her. Trust and honesty were two things he had to have and it was the only way they would ever workout.

“I’m fine. It was just a dream.” He took her hand on his leg and wrapped his around it.

It was the summer and Chloe was on break from Met U. They were in California visiting Chloe’s mother in an asylum about two miles outside of San Francisco. It was their third visit to see her and they finally convinced the doctors and a judge to let them move her back to Kansas so she could be closer to Chloe.

This last visit Lex had to work and take care of some business in San Francisco so they stayed in a hotel roon for the week and drove the two hours to see her mother once every day.

His father’s attempts to take over Luthor Crop were crushed before they started. He tried taking out loans and buying stock but it was no use. When he was in jail Lex made sure any and all assets that were connect to the company belonged to him.

The money Lionel had stashed away could be traced back and Lex stopped him before he could buy anymore stock. Lex was personally taking care of several parts of the business making sure Lionel couldn’t try anything again.

Things with Clark had died down for the moment but Lex knew that it was a small battle they won that day in Chloe’s apartment. He had all the information he would ever need to keep Clark away from them or to be prepared if he got in the way of anything he wanted.

Lex was turned on when he saw Chloe standing over Clark that day. The strength and power in her eyes was something he never saw on her before. She told him later that she wanted to make him suffer and she enjoyed it.

It was his first glimpse of a darker side to her that he was secretly hoping she had. He wanted her to be little more open to his own. For now she kept him balanced and he never saw her like that again but knowing it was there help him sleep better at night.

It was Saturday and they were driving back to the hotel. Lex was up in the early hours of the morning in business meetings so he could spend dinner with Chloe and her mother.

“You work to hard. I will take care of you once we get back to the hotel.” Chloe looked at him and gave him a smirk.

“How are you going to take care of me?” He said drawing out his words trying to seduce her which was unnecessary she always wanted him.

“First I will help you take a nice long shower and make sure every inch of her body is clean.” Chloe took her hand back to place it on the wheel and turned off at the exit leading to the hotel.

“Go on.” Lex said reaching his hand over to her side putting it on her leg caressing her thigh riding up her skirt.

“Then after you’re all clean I’ll make you dirty again and have wild hot sweaty sex with you.” Chloe turned and drove up to the hotel entrance.

“And then.” Lex said trying to get her to continue.

“Let’s get through the first half of my plan. Then we can talk about what happens later.” They got out of the car and Chloe handed the keys over to the valet.

They waited for the elevator to take them up to their suit. “You always pick the most expensive hotel you can find don’t you?”

The elevator doors opened and they walked. “You weren’t complaining last night. All you could do was rant and rave about the shrimp you order from room service and how great the bed felt.”

Chloe let an exasperated sigh. “I wasn’t ranting.”

“Yes you were. You said the bed was better then one we have at home.”

She rolled her eyes at him and then tried to defend herself. “It was the sheets I tell you. They have to be a high thread count I have never heard of before they are so soft.”

Lex laughed at her getting excited about sheets. “You should ask the concierge who supplies the hotels linens so you can get some.”

“Maybe I will.” She said sarcastic as ever.

The elevator doors opened and they walked out towards the suit. Lex used the key card to open the door for her and Chloe kicked off her sandals as soon as she got into the room.

Lex walked in behind her and closed the door and grabbed her waist pulling her to him. “So when do I get this shower.”

Chloe turned in his arms and pressed into him. Lex could feel her rubbing his cock over his pants getting him hard. He let out a groan in his throat as she worked him over and Chloe was grinning at him.

“I was thinking in the elevator that we I should get you really sweaty before I give you the shower.”

Lex pulled her skirt up around her waist and grabbed the flesh of her ass. “Ok. What do you want to do to me?”

Chloe shoved his hands off her and stop rubbing his now fully erect cock in his pants. She pulled the skirt down then completely off. Lex could see the shape of her through her panties and it made his cock twitch.

She pulled her panties off then yanked her tank top off and removed bra. “I’m not going to do anything to you right now your going to do something to me.”

Lex’s cock was throbbing now seeing her naked in front of him. The curve of her hips, her full breast, her soft thighs made his cock twitch just thinking about them. “What do you want?”

Chloe walked over to sit on the bed at the edge her legs dangling off the side. “I want you to taste me.”

Lex kicked off his shoes and pulled his polo shirt off. He walked over to her and leaned down to kiss her pulling her closer to him almost lifting her off the bed. He let her go and she let out a whimper from his release.

“That was nice but I meant taste me here.” Chloe pointed between her legs and Lex knelt down in front of her.

He kissed her thigh and Chloe closed her eyes. “Here? You want me to taste you here?”

He nibbled up and down her thigh getting close to her entrance then moving away. Lex reached up to knead one of her breast in his hand pinching the nipple making it a stiff peak.

“Eh…Ah… No here” Chloe wined and tried to move his head in place at her entrance.

“Tell me what you want.” Lex said.

Chloe opened her eyes and looked down on him. “I want you. I want you to eat me out now stop playing around.”

Lex smirked at her then did as she asked and flicked his tongue into her entrance. She was already wet for him as quickly as she had gotten him hard. Chloe held on to his head rubbing over his scalp teasing it with her nails.

“Yeah Lex. My clit please. My clit.” Chloe tried pushing into his mouth to get him where she wanted him.

Lex loved it when she begged for it. He licked in and out of her entrance and this frustrated Chloe. He looked up at her and she was sliding her hand down to her clit. He grabbed it and stopped her then let his tongue flick over her tiny nub.

“Fuck!” Chloe grunted and held onto Lex’s shoulder. He could here her breathing quickening and he wanted her screaming so he scraped his teeth across her clit.

Chloe grabbed his head stopping him from doing it again. Lex couldn’t get his mouth on her so he sunk two fingers into her. She let out some funny noises and her eyes shut again.

“Look at me.” Lex pulled his fingers out and waited for her to open.

Her chest was heaving up and down. She looked down and her eyes were pleading for him to go on.

“You want me to beg fine. Please Lex. Please.” she said in a mocking tone.

“You could at least mean it.” Lex got up and pushed her back on the bed. Chloe inched up to the pillows and laid back. He tried to push his erection down and focus on making her come first.

Lex stared at her naked body sprawled out for him and his cock almost bounced. Chloe was biting down on her lower lip and Lex reached down to kiss her. She took him in her arms and pushed him down to her.

Lex slid his tongue in her mouth and she moaned. He reached his hand between them and plunged his two fingers back into her.

Chloe yanked her head away saying his name. “Lex Please Lex. Please” She was begging but this time she wasn’t mocking him.

He lowered himself back between her legs and lick over her clit while pumping in out of her with his fingers.

“Suck Lex. Suck.” She was breathing out control again grinding her hips.

Lex had to get her off fast he couldn’t take much more waiting. He sucked on her clit and she arched up on the bed. He used his free hand to push her down then curled his fingers up in side her.

Chloe tried to speak. “Ahh…Ahhh. Lex … so close.”

He scrapped his teeth across her clit again and she got out of his hold on her. Lex pumped into her faster and sucked hard on the swollen nub.

“Oh God. Lex… Lex…” Chloe was panting his name and Lex felt her tighten around his fingers. She was coming and her back was arched up on the bed. Lex tried to push her back down.

He let her come down and then worried about her back pain after moving around so much. Lex leaned back up over her. “Is your back ok?”

She nodded as him. “Yeah I will be alright. You know it has been better lately” She grabbed his cock. “I want this.”

A sigh of relief came out of Lex that he didn’t have to hold out anymore. He put the tip of his cock at her entrance. “Mine?” He asked.

“You know it’s yours. Now fuck it already.” She pushed up into him and he responded sinking into her.

Lex said lowering his mouth to her ear “Say it again.”

“Which part? The I’m yours or the fuck me.” Chloe whispered back to him.

“Both.” Lex reared back and pulled up on her so he could see her.

“I am yours! Fuck Me!” Chloe was jerking up and got him going.

Lex was at last use to being inside her and could control him self better once he was in her. “Tell me again.”

She started panting fuck me over and over getting louder with each thrust. She wasn’t lying still but writhing up into him meeting him at every thrust.

“Yeah love.” He said and grabbed one of her breast in his hands then quickened his pace. She was out of control again trying to speak but this time he planted a kiss on her.

She sucked on his bottom lip then let go so she could scream. Her hands made there way to Lex’s ass and he knew she was going to start gripping at it leaving him marked.

He lost control over his thrust grunting fuck as he took her. Chloe was still pushing up into to him digging into the flesh of his ass.

He leaned in closer to her. He was hiding between her neck and her shoulder then bit into the space.

“Ahhhhhhh” She cried out and Lex felt her coming arching up under him and he tried to push into her orgasm and not come in her throbbing muscles.

Once her orgasm settled Lex spoke. “Good start. Now what do you want”

Chloe held his head in her hand. “I have you so I have what I want. I love you.”

Lex kissed her lightly a few times. “I love you too but you promised to get me dirty then clean me up and repeat the process.”

She nudged them over his cock still in her. Once he was on his back and she was straddling him. “I’ll give you what I promised.” Chloe leaned down and kissed him again and her tight nipples rub against his chest.

She started to push down on him and Lex grabbed her hips trying to get her going faster.

Chloe pulled out of the kiss and started to bounce over his cock; her breast flopping all over the place. Lex wanted her to come again and tried to push back the urge to push up into her.

“Lex come on.” She reached for his chest and pinched one of his nipples.

“Ah. Chloe” His nipples were sensitive and Chloe took advantage of the reaction and pinched them again. “Ah Chloe”

“No more nipples.” Lex tried to say straining to still let her bounce over him.

She pinched his nipple again. “Then push up.” Her words came out broken and Lex finally let go and pumped up into her.

He gripped her hips and heaved up into her thrust. “You’re so beautiful Chloe.”

“Yeah! Need more. Please.” Chloe ran her nails down his chest. Lex knew what she need and pushed into her clit with his thumb. “Ahh…I’m close…Lex.”

Lex had to make her come again and gripped her hips with one hand and the other pushed in to her clit. This made her lose her rhythm screaming as loud as she could coming again pushing down on him slumping over. Lex jerked up into her tight muscle a few more times and let him self go coming with Chloe all around him.

She was breathed in his ear “We’re sweaty now we should get in the shower.” She kissed him again slowly inching into his mouth.

He leaned back so he could get lost in her green eyes. “What are we waiting for?”

Chloe got off him and ran to the bathroom. Lex was going to chase her put grabbed and velvet box from his pant pocket then chased after her.

Before the second meter shower Lex never thought he would be in this position with Chloe. Nothing was keeping her from him, not his father, not Clark, and no secrets. Having her was and idea he only dreamed about.

She wanted him as much as he wanted her, she trusted him and he trusted her, and she loved him.

He walked into the bathroom and Chloe was turning the water on to the shower then looked at him in the doorway. "What?"

Lex opened the box and showed her diamond engagement ring. "Chloe will you marry me?"

She squealed and didn't answer him but jumped into his arms "I was wondering when you would get around to that." Then she kissed him pressing her hot body into him.

Lex had Chloe in his life and he would do anything to keep it that way because she was what he really wanted.

The End

Notes: Thank you for those that read this story. I really wanted to end with a hint of Chloe and Lex being evil together in the future and have them at a strong point. Not hiding anything being honest with one another. If I do come back to this it will be several years in the future and they will be evil Chlex. I will take some time to go back fix all my typos and mistakes in this.

I was going to be very angry with you if Chloe leaving Lex hadn't been a dream. You did a great job with this story & I loved the update. I also would like to read a story with evil Chlex.

[~*~Tasha~*~]

Okay ... my response to the first part of this was ... that was evil. LOL. Oh man what a dream. It was an evil tease of you. {goes to the second part}

This whole piece was amazing. Angst, but not too much. Good character development. Good plotline. Good originality. I like how you played things out between Clark, Lex and Chloe. Lana of course is as self-involved as ever. Heck, Clarkw as too. All he ever thinks about is protecting himself and Lana when it comes to his precious secret. I know that from all the episodes I've watched so far I can tell you that if Clark had just trusted Lex at some point about 80 percent of their problems would have NEVER happened.

Again excellent story. This is well worth rereading again and again. We all have a little darkness in us. No one is perfect or completely sugary sweet.

I love evil Chlex :devil: and I hope you write more. I want a fic in the future with them being pure evil. Its so hot. The smut is so much better when they're evil :hankpank:.

Okay, I've read this fic from beginning to end and I loved it! :) I think that you did a good job with the romance of Lex and Chloe. Your emotions like I read above were very well written - great story! :)

[junelle1]

What a wonderful story. With the perfect ending.

[superag]

What a cool story with elements of fabulous smut and plot all rolled into one. I just love thinking that CHloe and Lex are evil together. That is wonderful.

[Emch]

Brilliant as always. I love how good they are together.

Keep writing fics like this, please.

So I've just stumbled across this fic, I'm two chapters in and admittedly hooked to your story. I can't wait to see what you do with this premise! A few things that stuck out for me in chapter 2...

He grabbed her shoulders again. Peered at her again so hard Chole felt like he could see into her then he spoke in soft tone she never heard before “Chloe I am sorry. I’m sorry I made you go to the cave with me. I’m sorry that I pulled you away from your family during the worst possible time. I’m sorry I have pushed you away this year. I’m sorry that my actions have hurt your feelings in anyway. You don’t know how hard it’s been for me to be away from you this year.”

Typical Lex! He's making an apology and at the same time, still manages to make it sound like he's the injured party.


She couldn’t do this with him. He had abandon their so called friendship for months and now he was trying to show her the truth by kissing her.

Good girl! While I'm all for the Chlex love and smoochies, given the context of this situation, I think Lex really needs to work A LOT harder to 1. Earn Chloe's trust, and 2. Win her over to the love he so desperately feels for her.

Off to read the next chapter now! Thanks for dreaming this up and sharing it with all of us :D.

I've just finished reading chapter 6. I really like the fact that you've jumped forward a month or two to the point where Chloe is less vulnerable and in a better position to make decisions about her life, particularly about a certain young bald billionaire we all know and love. It also works better for the pacing of your plot. It speaks volumes about just how much Lex cares for Chloe that he's willing to be patient and give her time to get used to having him in her life and trusting him again before they consider a romantic relationship. Lex is so used to just taking what he wants, when he wants, so the fact that's he's refraining from manipulating and forcing things with Chloe, thus setting her apart, is very significant. I also love the idea of Chloe having to juggle between her loyalties to Clark and her growing loyalty to Lex.


“I want to talk about you and Clark. You seem to insist on being his friend. I just don’t see how you justify being friends with me and friends with him.” Lex jumped up out his seat as his anger started to boil over.

And while jealous!Lex is great fun to read, he doesn't really have any right to ask Chloe to choose between Clark and himself. In a normal situation, Chloe's respective relationships with Clark and Lex each should be completely separate from whatever issues the two men have with each other. But given the nature of their entanglements and conflicting interests, I have a sneaking suspicion that eventually, Chloe will have to choose between the two of them. And we all know she's going to pick Lex!

[starmoon]

[LEXSUPERFAN]

I love this fic.

I loved how was growing the confidence and love between them, also how you showed the dark side of Chloe and the insecure side of Lex.

[lia00027]

I like this story, yes i can understand why chlex hurt clark since clark was undeniably selfish here.
