Hello, new chapter. I hope this is good, I have to say that all the reviews are making me doubt about Clark's future.
Thanks so much to Anna Lange for be my new beta.
More That Months. Chapter 10.
She was constantly pacing, and kept looking toward the room where Lex had entered almost half an hour ago. She wished for X-ray vision in that moment, or super hearing; anything. Whatever would let her see or hear what was happening inside.
She still couldn't believe that Lex, after all his lies and humiliations, had had the face to come in there and say that he loved Clark. Then, act like a martyr and weep and… God Chloe wanted to kill someone. And it was much better if that someone was bald, rich and pale.
"Please sit down honey. You are making me dizzy," Martha groaned. She was a mother and, because of that, she just wanted the best for her son; even if that made her blood boil in the inside and see red. Her baby was in that room, maybe dying, and pregnant. The man responsible for months filled of tears, pain, and desperation was in there with her son, doing God knows what, and she just wanted to run in there and toss Lex out. But she knew that no matter what she did the love that Clark felt for that man was stronger than anything, and the best for now was to let them be together. Even though she felt more annoyance and anger than she should feel toward Lex, he made Clark happy.
Chloe smiled, "I know, sorry". She sat down on the floor and kept looking to the door. "It's just...he is in there and…" She took her hair in her finger and closed her eyes as if she was going to say something bad. "And…I don't like him very much." She opened her eyes and saw Martha's face become red. "I don't want him here with Clark; talking to him, seeing him, breathing, living or existing!"
"I know sweetie," Martha laughed, "Me too." To Chloe's surprised face, she added, "I maybe older, but I'm not blind or stupid. But don't worry; Lex won't be able to hurt Clark because now he has us." Not like before she said to herself.
The younger woman smiled and nodded approving. "Good to know." But I hope it's not too late.
Clark's hospital room.
After Lex said those words Clark stood in shock. He waited to hear that for a long time, and now that he said it, Clark didn't know what to say. It felt odd to him, to hear Lex say that he still loved him.
He loved Lex; that was not a secret, but after all the events in this last months he wasn't the same anymore. He was pregnant, he was sick, he was weak, and he was dying. He was going to be a father, and in that moment the most important thing was his son. Lex was important too, but the pain and sorrow was still in Clark's heart.
"Clark?" Lex waited for almost ten minutes for Clark to say something and when the words didn't come out, Clark wasn't going to say the typical 'I love you too'. He wasn't expecting a kiss or a love making session, but he wanted to be close to Clark, like in the old times.
"Lex, I love you. I think you know it and don't doubt it," Clark finally said with a deep voice trying not to sound so weak. "But I can't be with you. Not anymore." It was funny how his voice didn't work other days but now that he was kicking Lex out, his voice, eyes and brain were working like nothing ever happened.
Lex smiled sadly and nodded. He knew it. He was expecting it.
"But he is your son too, and I don't want him to be alone," Clark said with a serious face. "He'll have my mother and Chloe but it won't be the same."
To that Lex looked surprised .Clark was completely calm with the possibility of dying and never seeing their son. Lex loved Clark, he would do anything for him, but there were many things that were separating them again.
Luthor Mansion. Smallville. Two hour later.
Close to one hour ago a hurricane came to the Manor. Lana come to the mansion, throwing Lex's papers to the floor, and breaking all glass and cups that appeared in her sight. She was looking for explanations; even if she knew it was useless.
She didn't wear the nice, white and beautiful dress that was meant to be the best that a bride in all Metropolis had wear. Since now that idea, and all the rest of her plans, were destroyed because a stupid bastard. She was supposed to be a beautiful woman with a rich husband and a kid.
She called herself stupid for not seeing that coming. Lex was so different with her in the last few weeks; he worked in his office, or his laptop, but didn't speak with her; she wanted a reason. Lana wanted to know what made him do this to her. She was good with him; tender, understandable, and she tried to make him happy. They were going to be the perfect couple; the perfect family.
Now she was the big taunt of all Metropolis. But she still had a good card on her side; their baby. It was so clear that Lex wanted this child and she was going to use that to her advantage.
Looking through Lex's desk, she found a file that was secured in one of the box.

CJK
'For the hiding place to be that special, it must be important'Lana thought. So she took it with her, and walked toward the door.
When she was out of the room, a very pleasant Lionel came out from the library in the second floor. Apparently his plan was going to become a fact after all.
Now he just had to think of a good way for Clark Kent to die.
To be continued...
I guess you know who CJK is, haa?
