A/N: ::sigh:: Thanks for the reviews. It's very kind of you. I'll work on
that "smoother reading" thing…I don't really pay attention to it when I
write :o) So here's chapter five (5ive…)…I think that's all I want to
say…::shrugs::
Chapter Five
Clark sat in the dark living area in the silence. He couldn't believe what Lex had just said to him. Why was he being such an ass? Why did he even have to start all that? He didn't have to go and kiss him. Then Clark remembered. He'd kissed him back.
He sighed, lying his head against the arm of the loveseat. He was over reacting he decided. He should just go back in there, and tell Lex he was sorry. No…his damn male pride held him back.
Upon deciding this, he flicked the TV on, startled that it was so loud, and quickly put it on mute. He didn't want the sound anyway. He just wanted images to take over Lex's place in his mind.
Meanwhile, back in the bedroom, Lex was staring at the empty space where Clark had lain a few minutes before. Why did he have to bring up LutherCorp; or Clark's age? Why was he such an idiot? Deep down inside, he knew he should just get up off his ass, and go out there and apologize to him, and tell him that he didn't mean any of it. Alas, his own damnable male pride held him back.
He sighed, rolling over onto his back. He knew he wouldn't sleep at all. If he did, it would be a miracle of some kind. He closed his eyes, and attempted the impossible.

They where both awake and ready to leave early the next morning, seeming Clark had stayed on the couch the rest of the night, and Lex by himself in the bedroom.
"Are you sure you two boys won't stay and have breakfast?" The old woman at the desk asked, as they checked out.
"No thanks ma'am. I think it's best we be getting on home." Lex smiled at her, while Clark held back.
"Well, I hope you two enjoyed your stay." She smiled also.
Lex nodded, and pulled out his car keys from his pocket, as he and Clark made their way outside to his car, "Would you like to drive?" He asked.
"No." Clark waited for Lex to unlock the door, before jerking it open roughly, and sliding inside.
"Okay…" Lex was not surprised at Clark's behavior, and slid into the car himself. He paused momentarily, "Are you pissed off at me, because of last night?" He pushed the key into the ignition, and started the car.
"Yes."
"Well, we're getting somewhere." Lex rolled his eyes, and pulled out of the parking lot.
The car ride was fairly quiet as Clark was not speaking to Lex, and Lex had not turned on the radio. They were each off in their own little world, thinking about the exact same thing…each other.
