Lionel was sitting down on the couch, Martha had gone to the bathroom again, he didn't understand what could affect her as much to make her cry at that way, but it must be something really serious.

"Would you like anything to drink?" asked her as she walked back.

"No thanks…" he said "I just want you to tell me what's wrong, Martha…"

She sat next to him looking at the floor.

"I… I can't… I can't tell you, Lionel…"

"Why? It's obvious that you need tell it to me! Oh, come on, Martha! We were just talking this morning, and all seemed to be really fine… what happened after my call that has affect you as much, uh? What was it?"

"He's threatened me…" whispered Martha.

"Who?"

"Sean Kelvin"

"Who?!"

"Sean Kelvin… a boy who was affected by the meteors… he's fine now… but he knows about Clark…" she said nearly crying "I met him… well… he met me this morning… as I left for a walk…" she had taken off her shoes and had her legs on the couch now, and she was hugging them trying to stop her cry.

"What happened?" asked Lionel.

"I first try to ignore what he was saying me… but he knows about kryptonite… and he threatened me to tell it to everybody if I don't do what he wants…"

"And what does he want?!"

"I'm not sure… but he said he would come after you leave me home… and… he kissed me in the restaurant…"

"In the restaurant?!" he exclaimed.

"He attacked me in the bathroom…"

"Why didn't you tell me then? I would…"

"You would What Lionel? He knows all… he…" suddenly the phone rang. Martha looked at Lionel with tears on her eyes, Lionel hold her hand and then she answered "Yeah?"

"What's he still doing there, Mrs Kent?

"He worried about me when I said him that I felt sick, Sean… and he didn't want to leave me alone…" she said.

"Give me the phone… I will say him a few of things!" whispered Lionel, but Martha made him shut up.

"I want him out of the apartment now!" shouted Sean from the other side of the phone.

"You said that you didn't want anybody to know about that… I'm supposed to feel bad, Sean, I can't ask him to leave…"

"Of course you can… you can, and you will… because if Mr. Luthor doesn't leave your apartment in thirty minutes, I will go to the television to talk about your dear Clark secret, do you understand, Mrs Kent?"

"I do…" she said putting down the machine.

"What has he said?" asked Lionel.

"You must leave…"

"What? NO, I'm not leaving!" said as he stood up in front of her.

"Of course you do! I… I can't risk my son's safeness for…"

"Your honor? Your dignity? Your own safeness"

"You have to go…" repeated Martha.

"Do you really think that Clark will be happy to know that his mother gave her body to a boy to save him?

Martha let her body fell on the couch.

"What more can I do? Let him go to all televisions and newspapers? See how he can kill my son?!"

"No… but you can let me help you…" he said without take his look away from Martha's shiny blue eyes. Martha stared at him a while, he seemed as confident… Then she closed her eyes, and he caressed her cheeks, and she kissed his hands, and he pull her closer to him and hugged her letting her tears fall on his chest, and she dried her tears and looked at him, and he was crying too. She stayed a while right there, with her head on his chest, and his hands on her hair, looking how Lionel cried.

"Sorry…" he said.

"Why…?" she asked caressing his chin with two fingers. Then he hold her hand and pulled her up until they could feel each other's breath. Lionel caressed her lips, they were so soft… and she kissed his fingers.

"Marth…" began Lionel.

"Sht…" interrupted Martha taking her lips closer to his… "Don't do it again…" she whispered as she joined his lips. And they kissed. And as while they were kissing Lionel caressed her soft hair and Martha put her hands on his muscled chest. They didn't stop kissing as Lionel slipped his hands down and rolled up her blouse to throw it on the floor, and as she unbuttoned his shirt and removed his tie. Then he lied her on the sofa and he sat astride on her as he caressed her perfects breasts.

"I can't believe we're doing this…" said Lionel undoing his trousers.

"Love me, Lionel…" begged her putting her hands on his waist.

It was as if the world ended after the walls of that room, as if they were the only life on the entire universe, as if that was the only thing she needed to live. After a moan the telephone rang, and Martha took it without let Lionel stop… it was too much great to stop it then.

"Yeah?" she said as she groaned.

"What the hell are you doing?!"

"Sean!?" suddenly screamed Martha. She had absolutely forgotten every thing that wasn't Lionel.

"Why haven't I seen him going out? And why do you seem tired, Mrs Kent?" Martha stayed in silence… none possible answer came to her mind "Listen, I'll give you ten minutes more… if I don't see Lionel Luthor going out the apartment you'll regret of it…" and he cut the call.

"It was him again, doesn't it?"

"It was" said Martha putting down the phone as Lionel moved away from Martha. "You have to leave, Lionel… we can do anything else…"

"Ok… I will leave, but don't let him to touch you, ok?" he said caressing her neck "I love you, you're mine now, and any other man can touch you now, ok?" he said kissing her forehead as he buttoned his shirt.

"I'm scared…" said Martha nearly crying.

"Martha, I know you, you're the strongest woman I know in this world, you're a wonderful mother… just see what you were going to do for him… but now I'm not going to let you do it, ok? Just follow his game, and I will ring Clark, ok?"

"No! Don't call him! Please…"

"But…"

"Please…" she begged again.

"Ok… I will not tell him anything yet, but… if he try anything… just call me" said with a hand on the door nearly opening it.

"Lionel…"

"Yeah?"

Martha stood on her tiptoes and grasped herself on Lionel's neck to not fall… She kissed him really sweetly and then she whispered on his ear "I love you too"

Just a while after Lionel had left Sean rang the door, and Lionel saw it from the other side of the corridor, wishing to kill him at that same moment… but Martha wouldn't had let him to kill anybody… instead if it was to safe her…

"Hello Mrs Kent…" said Sean walking inside "You look really hot tonight"
