Title: You say...
Author: Blaire023
A/N: Jesus,people, it took me long enough to find a song I wanted to continue this 'series' as you call it. And finally I did so....
Disclaimer: If I owned Lex and Chloe they'd have a bunch of tiny bald billionaires running around their mansion night and day, children people, not talking about midgets. And as for Stay, it's by Lisa Loeb, if you didn't know that yet. And yes, Sab, I am channeling...
CHARACTER DEATH!
You say...
You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk so all the time so
"Chloe." His hand held hers as the sound of the ambulance grew nearer. "Chloe." Her eyes fluttered open filled with tears that refused to spill down her face.
"Stay with me baby." Lex's grip on her tiny fingers tightened as they wheeled her into the ambulance, praying silently that she would.
*2 hours prior*
And I thought what I felt was simple
And I thought that I don't belong
And now that I am leaving
Now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you
Yeah yeah, I missed you
Chloe felt the world all around her shift into position and she sat up in bed, Lex's arm draped haphazardly across her swollen stomach. She couldn't place her finger on it, something was just wrong. Looking over at Lex, still fully clothed, his eyes moved beneath his lids as REM had taken over. her breathing came in short sharp gasps as the tightening in her heart constricted. She was suffocating. She had to get away. Lex's grip tightened on her as he mouthed the word, "no." She slipped out from his grip and dressed quietly before grabbing his keys and making her way down to the parking garage.
She already missed him.
You say I only hear what I want to:
I don't listen hard, don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
To anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care, I'm only hearing negative: no, no, no
Her mind focused on the road in front of her, but somewhere in the distance she thought she could see him waking up, not to find her there beside him in bed. His car gone, his keys gone, and she heard him yelling "No." at her.
Lex woke to find himself alone. It was happening more and more often and he hated that she would slip out from beside him instead of leaving him a note. Each day she'd get a little further. He picked up his cell phone and dialled a familiar number. "Where is she?"
"Sir?"
"Chloe, where has she gone to this time?"
The man on the other end paused for a moment, "I'm sorry sir, we hadn't realized she was gone." Lex's eyes grew wide in fear as he threw the phone across the room, she was carrying his father's child, a Luthor heir, and people knew this, people would kill her for this. The phone crashed against the wall as he yelled "NO" and fell to his knees with his head in his hands.
So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up
And this woman was singing my song:
Lover's in love and the other's run away
Lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay
Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born
Well, well, this is not that
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown
Just as she reached the border indicating she was leaving Metropolis she sighed and ran a hand over her face. Any second now Lex's goons would pull up behind her and escort her back to the penthouse. Fifteen minutes had passed no sign of life. Chloe got out of the car, stretching her legs and her arms she turned to the sound of the car phone. A self satisfied grin over took her features. Without answering it she looked down at the caller ID confirming it was Lex. She decided then, that just maybe it was time for her to quit running away.
She made her way back to the penthouse, driving carefully into the city, cars whizzed past her, some slowed down to look. As she neared the penthouse multiple police cars were pulled into the front, parked at all angles. Chloe rolled her eyes and parked the car in the garage, making her way around the front of the building to see Lex with his arms crossed standing on the top step of the bricks leading into their home. She shrugged and smiled crookedly at him just as a sharp pain twisted inside her body.
Everything went completely quiet as her eyes searched for Lex, only to find she wasn't upright, instead she hit the sidewalk hard, landing on her stomach. Hands clawed at her and she opened her own eyes to see Lex yelling around them, his hands grabbing her to roll her over. His eyes trained on her stomach and his hands pressed to it, bringing them away soaked in crimson. Chloe's eyes rolled into the back of her head as she surrendered her body to the numbness willing to overtake her. More shots rang out and Lex lay on top of her, covering her further.
Bodies fell to the ground on both sides of them as police were taken down and out of the fifth story window across the street a man fell from the window, the gun in his hand had been used to take down the unborn Luthor.
And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you
Chloe felt her lungs peircing and burning, the air stirring inside her. But she also felt blood. Running cold, on her legs, the insides of her thighs, her stomach, her clothes. Her waist down, nothing but a sticky mess. Lex pressed his handkercheif now dark and thin from the pressure he applied to her. "God Dammit, Chloe, STAY!"
*now*
You said that I was naive and I thought that I was strong
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave."
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you
Chloe struggled to sit up in the bed. Her eyes searching all around the room for any sign of life besides her. Her eyes landed on a figure, sleeping soundly on the other bed in the room. He looked so peaceful. She didn't want to wake him up, but god, she missed him. Tears slipped down her face as she smiled over at his still body.
Yeah, I miss you
You said, "You caught me 'cause you want me and one day you'll let me go
"You try to give away a keeper, or keep me
'Cause you know you're just scared to lose
And you say, "Stay."
"Never letting you go." He said as he lay beside her in bed, his arms caught her around her middle and pulled her back to him, his body covering hers perfectly. "I love you, Chloe." She sobbed quietly, it had only been a month ago that she had lost a part of her, a part of them that she hadn't realized was keeping them together. A part of them that he never spoke down about.
"I miss him." Her voice cracked at barely a whisper and Lex's face nuzzled the back of her neck.
"We'll make our own."
You say I only hear what I want to
*The End*
