Chapter 10: Discovery number one
"Your aunt actually LET you have this party?" Clark shouted over the noise, Lana grinned sheepishly
"She let me because uh...she doesn't know about it" Clark nodded in understanding, his eyes scanning over the mass of drunk, half-naked teenagers
"Do you even know half these people?" Chloe asked, straightening her black, sleeveless top.
"Most of them are my cousins uni friends" Lana admitted, pulling two more bottles of goon out of the fridge, where they were promptly snatched off her by a topless, red haired guy.
"PAAAAAAARTAAAAAAY!" he screamed, causing the guests who weren't passed out to cheer. Chloe laughed at their amusing antics, and grabbed a glass of brown liquid off the counter, drowning it in one gulp.
"Take it easy" Clark said, taking the empty glass out of her hands "You don't want to overdo it"
"Lighten up Clark" she snapped, enjoying the aftertaste "Just relax and have some fun, it is a party after all"
"All right" Clark said, still looking at with concern evident in his eyes "Hay Lana, where's Whitney?" Lana looked around
"I'm not sure, he should be around somewhere. Why?" Clark shrugged, and to Chloe's extreme annoyance they began sharing their 'unrequited love' look, but to anyone else they seemed like a newly labotomised couple. Chloe rolled he eyes, she was about to give some excuse as to why she was leaving, but she realised it wouldn't make a difference.
"I'm going to find Lex so we can have a good fuck, see you" she said cheerfully, weaving through the crowd.
"What's this about us having a good fuck?" Lex whispered in her ear, she jumped in surprise.
"I was simply trying to wake Lana and Clark from their little fantasy land, but it didn't work" she motioned to the two people who's eyes continued to be locked together, Lex laughed gently.
"Do I detect a hint of jealousy in your voice?" Chloe crossed her arms
"You don't detect anything, it's just a little irritating if you want to have a civilised conversation with them" Lex didn't indicate anything, but he agreed with her entirely. Many times he had been in the middle of talking to one of them, then as soon as the other came within a five mile radius he felt he shouldn't even be in the same city, let alone in hearing range.
"You want to go outside, it's too loud in here" Chloe shouted, Lex simply nodded in response and followed her as the stepped into the cold night air, her breath steamed in front of her and she shivered, enjoying the sudden temperature drop.
"Would you like my jacket?" Lex asked, noticing her shiver
"No, I like this" she said, leaning on the wooden pole and exhaling again. They shared a comfortable silence, some unrecognisable music blaring in the background.
"Chloe" he said softly, picking at the splintering wood "What are we doing?" She thought for a moment.
"well right now we're-" he stopped her, standing in front of her "I'm not kidding, what is this relationship?" Chloe turned serious and was genuinely thinking.
"I don't know, you're a great kisser and you have an amazing tongue, I like what we have, I like it a lot. But if you want to end it..." she trailed off, waiting for him to answer.
"I like it too, and I don't want to end it, but shouldn't we...tell someone about it?" Lex said hesitantly, he should get out of this right now, Lex Luthor was never hesitant.
"If it's just a sexual thing, maybe we shouldn't tell anyone. All the people I know wouldn't exactly be thrilled with this" Chloe confessed, looking away. Lex pondered for a moment, why couldn't this work? Nobody would find out, sure it would be hard sneaking around and such, but it would be worth it.
"So, we're clear about this?" Lex said eagerly, he SHOULD get out of this now, Lex Luthor was never eager.
"Yeah, we are" she said, grinning. He moved up to her and his fingers encased her slender shoulders, bringing her to him. His mouth went straight for her below her chin and he bit and sucked on the crook of her neck. It stung but it sent little bolts of electricity through her skin, so she didn't object. She threw her head back and closed her eyes, enjoying the intense pleasure that Lex's mouth was causing. His tongue swirled over her neck, making her go hot and cold
"I want you so badly" Lex groaned, cupping her breasts as he kissed along her jaw. She shuddered, feeling all her sensitive spots tingle delightfully below his fingers, his lips finally reached hers and their tongues rubbed together languidly. She dug her nails into his back and pulled him closer, so no part of her body was left untouched.
"Holy shit!" someone behind them shouted, they broke apart and saw none other than Whitney Fordman.
"Whitney, as always your timing is impeccable" Lex growled, picking some imaginary lint off his jacket.
"What's going on?" he asked, walking up the dishevelled couple.
"I'll tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone" Chloe said in a pleading voice, he looked from Lex to Chloe and leaned against the wooden pole.
"I'm listening" he said, waiting. Chloe glanced sideways at Lex before beginning.
"Um, me and Lex...we sort of...got together" she finished lamely
"You mean, you love each other?" Whitney asked, still befuddled.
"No" they said together, Chloe gave him another sideways glance "Uh...it's just a...physical thing" she blushed and Whitney's eyes widened.
"You and you?" he pointed to both of them, they nodded "You guys are doing it?" Lex rolled his eyes at Whitney's choice of words
"Well, sort of" Chloe said slowly, waiting for Whitney's reaction. He jumped up.
"I gotta tell someone!" he said frantically, Chloe grabbed his arm.
"No! You can't! You said if we told you then you wouldn't tell anyone" Whitney danced on the spot, obviously torn.
"This is too big" he whined, looking at the door, then at Chloe
"You promised" she reminded of him "Please don't tell anyone" he looked at her, then at Lex and stopped bouncing.
"Okay" he sighed "Just don't do that in public any more" he wrinkled his nose, Chloe laughed in half humour, half relief.
"Thank you" Lex said stiffly, obviously not used to thanking people "Now lets go somewhere a little less public"
Whitney groaned and watched as the couple walked away, the sight slightly disturbing him.
"Your aunt actually LET you have this party?" Clark shouted over the noise, Lana grinned sheepishly
"She let me because uh...she doesn't know about it" Clark nodded in understanding, his eyes scanning over the mass of drunk, half-naked teenagers
