Disclaimer: Yes, Smallville is mine, defy me and say otherwise and I shall bring a plague upon you all for I am the almighty Oz (and in need of some new little blue pills).
Author's Note: This is not necessarily the last chapter, but it is the last chapter for now as I am going home and so lose my free Internet connection. Any more, if you want it, won't be up for at least four weeks. I'm sorry, but these things can't be helped. My other fic is right in the middle and I've had to leave them right after a big revelation. There may be more, there may not, but rest assured this is not my last Smallville fic.
Taste in Men.
Chloe whimpered as Lex broke their kiss, grinning at how the pout forming on her lips quickly became contemptuous at his smirk.
"What's your damage Luthor?"
"Nothing, just the whole needing to breathe so I don't die and can kiss you on many other occasions." He said.
"Well, you've had your oxygen fix. Lips. Here. Now." She said pointing to her mouth.
"So romantic." He said with a slight swoon in his voice, before kissing her again. He lifted her up and turned them so she had her back pressed against the wall, just to one side of the window.
"I'm sure they're around here somewhere, when they weren't dancing they were sat here." Clark's voice carried over to them from their window, the next one down from the one they were next to.
Chloe tried to push Lex off, which was hard since a) her legs were wrapped around his waist, and b) he was kissing her so she didn't want to. Using all her willpower, she stopped kissing back and removed her legs from his waist.
"What's your damage Sullivan?" He said repeating her earlier turn of phrase with a less successful contemptuous pout.
"Shh, dumbass." She scolded. "The Kent Gestapo is looking for us. We'd better sneak back."
"What if I don't want to?"
"You don't have much choice, the woman always has the last word in the yes/no portion of a relationship, and technically it's illegal anyway."
"Kissing's not illegal Chloe, you know that."
"But it's not just kissing we were doing."
"Huh?"
"The second you put me against that wall it became foreplay."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"So did not."
"So did. Why did you need to do it if weren't expecting the need for extra support?"
Lex thought for a second. "'Cos you're not exactly feather light." Lex you dumbass you called her fat.
"Any chance you may have had to get me against a wall again, you just lost." Chloe said turning to leave. Lex grabbed her arm and turned her to him.
"Chloe, that's not what I meant. I work in an office, I'm not Clark, I'm weak as a newborn babe."
"Okay, maybe you have a better chance now. But it's not a big turn on to complain a girl's heavy." She said snuggling into the crook of his arm. Mm, comfy. Lex smells good.
"Look, I wanted to kiss you, and if I leave you down there I get a crick in my neck, but I can't hold you up long enough on my own."
"Whatever, I say let's blow this Popsicle stand."
"Good idea."
They snuck back in the window, and found the others to say goodbye. They left, ensuring Clark knew Lex would be taking Chloe straight home. Then they went outside and got into Lex's Porsche.
"Right, let's get you home before your Dad misses you."
Chloe giggled, and Lex looked puzzled.
"I knew the Luthor's weren't that concerned with their workforce, but forgetting you personally sent your plant manager on a three week course in Vancouver is a whole new level of negligence."
Chloe Sullivan, daughter of Gabe Sullivan your plant manager. Lex stop forgetting that when you're around her.
"So you don't have to take me home, yet." Chloe said looking at him with desire-darkened eyes.
Underage, underage, underage, underage, underage, underage, underage, underage, underage. Was all that Lex could think.
"Well?" Chloe wanted an answer to what she had implied.
"Underage." Damn. "What I meant was, I don't think sex is a good…"
"Neither, do I!" Chloe was incredulous. "I was only talking about going back to your place and making out somewhere more comfortable than against a wall."
"That's a good idea."
"And not illegal." Chloe said, much calmer. "Well, what are you waiting for?"
This was the first time that Chloe was more than happy Lex didn't respect speed limits.
They reached the mansion in no time and before either of them knew it, they were making out on the couch in Lex's study.
"ALEXANDER LUTHOR, WHERE IN THE HELL ARE YOU?" Was heard less than a second before the door burst open to reveal Lionel Luthor. Chloe and Lex hadn't even had the chance to break their kiss.
"Hey, Dad." Lex said with a cheery grin in place.
"I'll just … go somewhere else." Chloe stated, getting up from under Lex and ducking out of the door under Lionel's arm. She could always snoop while Lex got a bollocking.
"She's bright, why'd you go for her?"
"None of your business, what do you want?"
"I heard a nasty little rumour that you got yourself caught up with some old 'friends' from the Club Zero days."
"That's over with. Surprised it took you so long to find out."
"Am I going to be disgraced?"
"Actually I'm fine after the round of torture I endured, thanks for caring." At his father's look he added "They're all dead or in jail."
"Good." Lionel said and left.
"Hooray, visit from Daddy." Lex said with mock glee. "Shit, Chloe's gone snooping."
Lex raced around the mansion desperately trying to find Chloe. He was just passing his bedroom when he noticed the door was ajar. He opened it and looked in. It was the most fantastically beautiful sight he'd ever seen, Chloe was lying on his bed asleep. He pulled a blanket up over her and kissed her cheek, before quietly slipping out and back down to his study to do some work.

There may be more, but it won't be for a while. Sorry, please review anyway.
