New website for everyone: Television without pity gives some great and
funny recaps of each of the smallville episodes. Check it out. I'm going
on vacation on Monday so I'm not sure when the next chapter will be out.
I'm trying hard and I like the story so far and that's all that really
matters.
Chloe kept talking to everyone she could about her on going theory about heat ray eyed people even though their hadn't been a break-in in about a week. Clark kept looking nervous every time she brought it up.
"It's over Chloe. Nothings happened in awhile. Move on."
"Let's enjoy the party Chloe, Come on I got all pretty." I wanted her to drop it too it really made Clark nervous.
We found Pete plus one but we all seemed to break apart as the night went on. Clark was Lana stalking. Chloe was on the search for the lastest news. Pete and Lauren looked very cute dancing. And me? Well I don't dance and I was the oldest person in the room besides the staff who seemed to be guarding certain doors and making sure there was plenty of food on the table.
I became the second oldest person in the room when Lex walked in. He definitely had a presence. I was very surprised when he came walking towards me. I could smell him.
"Dorinda?" he walked up right next to me. I knew he knew my name. It was a game but I simply nodded.
"Having a good time?" He asked.
"Actually yes, I missed this whole part of my life." I shouldn't have said that.
"Oh how's that." He was smiling, smirking maybe.
"I dropped out of school at 16." He looked me up and down. "I'm twenty."
His turn to nod, "So now your living on the Kent farm, how did that happen?"
"I came by asking for a job, they invited me and haven't let me leave yet. Basically Clark Kent happened." I pointed over at the young man who was talking to Lana in a Whitney free moment. "I hear you owe him a lot too."
"He told you about that?"
"Yep."
"I still couldn't figure out where I knew you from." I could hear in his voice that that was no longer the case. "Do the Kent's know what a wild child you are?" He wasn't looking at me but at Clark.
I sucked some air through my teeth. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Don't lie, it's not becoming. My father is very manipulative. He used to have me followed around all the time. If I ever get to disobedient or to powerful he has tapes that can destroy me. I have copies of course that he makes me watch when he visits. Your on a few of them."
I looked right at him. "Your own father video taped you?"
"Nothing gets by him."
"I was going to tell the Kent's about everything."
"But you haven't yet."
"Those tapes don't show you in the best of light either I would guess."
"The Kent's hate me anyway."
"But not Clark."
"No Not Clark." He conceded.
We stood in silence for as few moments. Whitney had come back and Clark was standing alone until Chloe came over and seemed to drag him to where people were dancing. I smiled at my friends.
"Well you know about my past, /I know a bit about yours, what I don't get is why you're here." I asked the billionaire's son.
"Exiled, basically, but I've come to find amusements."
"Like fixing up Lana and Clark?"
"Among other things."
"So are you going to show me around or should I just wander around until one of your security personal kicks me out." I was being a bit bold, it must be the dress.
He smiled and I followed him out of the ballroom. The rest of the castle that Lex was willing to show me was beautiful. "So how did you get talked into having a hundred teenagers party at your house?"
"Nell can be very persuasive, her skills are lost in this town."
"It must be usually very quiet in here though."
Lex simply nodded. "So what are you going to do? Are you going to tell the Kent's about me?" I asked him as we stood on one of the many baloneys. The air was cold, my legs were freezing.
"There's really nothing to be won by telling them." He looked straight at me. He had beautiful eyes. I wasn't breaking eye contact although a very loud voice in my head screamed look away. It seemed like an hour before I was able to look away. My watched said 11:30.
"I better go collect Clark."
Lex grabbed my arm as I turned to go. He dropped it very quickly. "Let me show you the way back." Good idea. I was liable to get lost. Again he was looking at me. This time it made me uncomfortable. "Did we ever?" So that was it.
"No." I said quickly maybe a little too quickly. "But I think many of my friends succumbed to the Luther charm without even knowing it. Between you and me you look better without a hat."
He kissed me. What? Yes he kissed me. It was weird and unexpected and I didn't get a chance to kiss him back because I was in shock but god he tasted good.
"Umm I should go get Clark." I stumbled back into the house.
Lex did show me back to the ballroom, but he didn't say anything to me. I was confused I didn't want to be another notch in the Luther belt but come on the man was gorgeous.
I found Clark. "Clark time to go."
"Dori where have you been? I've been looking for you."
"On a tour."
Chloe was near by and we collected her and left. The party was dying down but not over. Curfew was only 15 minutes away though and it would take us about twenty to drop off Chloe and get home.
We ended up being 10 minutes late. Mrs. Kent gave us both a stern look but no lecture before she went to bed. I was so tired. I said goodnight Clark and barely made it into my pajamas before falling asleep. My final thought was how I should have kissed Lex back.
Clark really freaks me out sometimes. I really wanted to talk to him about what happened between Lex and I but after breakfast and church there were still chores to do. Clark got his done so fast and wasn't even breaking a sweat. Then there was the storm cellar. I just got the feeling something was being hidden from me. I decided I didn't like it and made sure I got to talk to Clark soon. I was going to tell him about my past and he was going tell me what was going on.
Chloe kept talking to everyone she could about her on going theory about heat ray eyed people even though their hadn't been a break-in in about a week. Clark kept looking nervous every time she brought it up.
