Chapter 4- Jealousy
"Where were you last night?" Lex growled. "I called after I dropped you off. Your dad said you never came home."
"I went to Lana's," Chloe explained.
"Don't lie, Chloe. You don't even like Lana. You went to Clark's, didn't you?" he sneered.
"No, I told you. I went to Lana's," Chloe said becoming a little frightened at the pure hatred in his eyes.
He took a step toward her. "I'll give you one more chance to tell the truth. Then, I can't be responsible for my actions," Lex told her.
Chloe wrapped her arms around her waist in an absentminded attempt to protect herself.
"Well?" Lex asked. He was close enough that Chloe could feel his warm moist breath.
"Lex, please. I'm not lying to you. I wasn't at Clark's. I went to see Lana. Call her, she'll tell you," Chloe said in an attempt to get Lex to back off.
Lex growled and stalked to the phone. He dialed Lana's number and flipped on the speakerphone.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Lana. It's Lex," Lex said, his voice immediately softening.
"Hi, Lex. What's up?" Lana asked sweetly.
"Did Chloe come see you last night?" Lex asked innocently.
"No. I never saw her. Why?"
"Lan-" Chloe started but was cut off.
"Thank you Lana. Good bye," Lex said disconnecting the call. "You went to Clark. I knew it. Admit it!"
"I wasn't at Clark's, I promise. Please believe me, Lex," Chloe resorted to begging.
Lex pulled a dagger down from his wall.
"Lex…" Chloe tried to reason. "I wasn't at Clark's!"
"I know you like him, Chloe. I see it in your eyes. You want him," Lex said absently twirling the dagger.
"I don't. I like you, Lex. I really do. I don't like Clark anymore. Not anymore, not for a long time," Chloe said backing up until she was pressed against the wall.
Lex continued to advance on her. "I liked you, Chloe. I really did. I liked you and I had to sit around watching you pine over your Clarkbar!"
"What can I do to prove it to you," Chloe asked.
"Nothing," Lex growled kissing her forcefully.
Chloe tasted blood when she bit her tongue. She tried to put passion into the kiss to prove her affection for him, but the fear paralyzed her. The last thing Chloe felt was the dagger being plunged into her stomach. She screamed into Lex's mouth as her world went black.
