Chapter One:

Lex had never been happier in his life at this moment in time his son was healthy and a joy to have around. Lana was a little colder than expected and as she seemed in his dream, but he'd just assumed she was still getting used to motherhood. After all Alex came as a complete surprise to her. He'd already come up with a viable cure to what killed her in his dream just in case the need arrived. What he seemed most surprised at was his own father, Lionel was ever the doting grandfather. Lex was still a little wary about his father's newfound love for family, but secretly Lex reveled in his father's new attitude and all seemed well in the leafy little hamlet. Chloe and Clark were now together, and Lois was doing well as a Daily Planet reporter as long as she was paired up with Chloe who was the only one who could seem to handle the wild card that was her cousin.

Mr. Kent won the election and after Lex dropped out he supported Jonathon in every way he'd let him and his dream of being in the Whitehouse was slowly fading. Lex sat back in his large office chair with his feet propped up onto his desk and closed his eyes a moment. "Taking a break from trying to get World Domination at the moment Lex." A familiar female voice said with amusement and he sighed happily thanking God that he no longer had to endure the small blonde's ire because even though he may have hidden it well, Chloe was scary when angry.

"Chloe what brings you here," Lex asked genuinely curious, after Clark asked Chloe out the first time, right after Lana found out she was pregnant with Alex, Chloe and he had become friends again very good friends, she was actually a better friend than Clark; who was still cold towards him, which he can't really blame him, he fell in love with his first love and you never get over that.

"I am here to get Lana so we can spend some time with her and my beautiful nephew." Chloe being close to both Lex and Lana became his godmother and 'Aunt' Chloe once Alex learned to talk. Then he heard a gurgle from the entrance of the room. Which they both turned to see Lana with the baby. "How's the up and coming heartbreaker," Chloe gushed walking over to mother and child. Lana handed the baby directly to Chloe "Hi baby boy look at you you've gotten so big since I last saw you." Normally Chloe was not a baby person in fact she usually avoided them at all costs but as soon as he was born Chloe took an instant liking to the child with his father's intense and curious eyes and complexion, and what looks to be his mother's hair.

"Chloe we'd better go before the after school crowd." Lana said.

"Oh right. Bye Lex." she said walking out still talking to Alex. Lana followed after them without sparing a glance to Lex. He went back to what he was doing before the small yet welcomed interruption.

That night Lana came back into her bedroom after putting her child to bed and sighed in frustration, relief, and sadness Chloe had told her that she and Clark were engaged to be married, and Lana hated it Clark was not supposed to move on. "Lana your back how was your day with Chloe." Lana plastered on a fake smile and said, "Wonderful, Chloe told me that she and Clark got engaged isn't that great."

Lex saw through the fake smile immediately; sporting quite a few fake smiles himself he'd always known that she was still in love with Clark and a part of her probably always would be so he told himself to be patient and that it didn't bother him, she would grow to love him. "That is magnificent they've been together about a year that's how long we've been together almost."

"I guess, but we had a reason to rush our relationship they don't."

"I suppose but they've been dancing around each other for years, and who knows each other better than those two." Lex reasoned.

"I'm tired Lex let's not get into this tonight ok." Lana said going into the bathroom to change.

Lex pursed his lips fighting the urge to go after her they hadn't really had a lot of arguments and he tried to keep it that way and to do that he avoided all subjects pertaining to Clark and his relationship with Chloe. So he just got ready for bed.

The next morning Lex woke up to an empty bed, it hadn't really bothered him and it wasn't the first time this had happened either, so he got up and went to his office.

After a few hours of working, Lionel came in to Lex's study carrying Alex he had a pensive look on his face Alex was in one hand and a piece of paper was in the other. "What's up dad?" he asked genuinely curious about the pinched look on his father's face. He handed the note to Lex, switching arms when Alex got fussy.

"The nanny handed me this before she left to go home Lex, I didn't read it. I'm putting Alex to bed for a nap," Lex stared down at the note with a foreboding feeling tightening his guts.

Lex,

I'm sorry that I am leaving you with only a note, but I cannot take this any more, I feel as if I am suffocating under being your wife and a mother I hope you find happiness as I have now with someone else.

Goodbye,

Lana

Lex crunched the note beneath his fingers, he shook with his fury. It wasn't

supposed to be this way who would take Lana from him. He needed to clear his

head get his anger under control. He passed the nanny on the way out the door

Asking her to look after Alex for a few hours. She agreed and he left simply going for a drive. Somehow he ended up going to the Kent's farm. The Kents were home since the senate wasn't in session. He saw Mrs. Kent beside the barn chopping wood. He got out and walked up to her. "Mrs. Kent."

"Lex what you brings you here today." The older woman asked surprise clearly written on her face; yet always being the gracious polite woman that Mrs. Kent is.

"I'm hoping either Chloe or Clark knows where Lana went." Martha looked startled for a moment before saying, "Uh Chloe was here a little earlier looking for Clark, but I told her he hasn't been here since early this morning I assumed he was going into town."

"Thank you Mrs. Kent I'll see if I can find either of them in town."

"Bye Lex have a good day." Lex smiled at the irony of her statement. Then turned towards his car.

He drove all over town looking for the familiar faces or cars. He found Chloe's car outside the 'Beanery' and gave a sigh of relief not really wanting to go to the 'Talon'. He walked in and sat down across from her "Do you know where or who Lana is with."

"No I' m actually looking for Clark he's disappeared; again." Then it dawned on both of them what must have happened. "No he wouldn't do that he…" Chloe trailed off as she looked at Lex. "I need to go Lex I need to get some of my things from the farm." Lex looked at her a moment, "Should you drive when you're this upset." he asked her quietly.

"Lex I need to get to get to the Kents before anger sets in and Mrs. Kent needs to call the sheriff for property damages." she said. With that she turned and walked to her car.
