Lex and Chloe sat in the living room. Lex was reading "Hangman's Curse" and Chloe was reading "Love's Labor's Lost." Both of them had other things on their mind. And both of them had one name ringing in their ears: Clark Kent.
Chloe glanced up at her lover and sighed. He had kept so quite after his "talk" with Clark. He had tried to be happy for the kids but she saw right threw that. She narrowed her eyes and coughed to get Lex's attention.
He looked up from his book and tilted his head to one side. "Something wrong, Chloe?"
"Well... yeah. There is, Lex." Chloe said. "Why haven't you told me what you and Clark talked about?" Lex looked at his feet. Chloe waited for a moment and went on. "Lex, I need to know what's going on. I was friend's with Clark just like you and I'd like to know if he hates me at all."
"Chloe, no one could hate you!" Lex said. "He doesn't. Really! I'm the one he hates."
"What? Why?"
"Because he was a fool and couldn't figure out that he loved you until I already had you. He's under the impression that I some how tricked you into loving me and that he should be the one your married to. And as a result he hates me."
Chloe sighed. "That's bull shit and he knows it!" Chloe moaned. "Damn it! Clark had no right to say things like that! He was the first one to know about you and me and how I had loved you for so long! So why in the fuck does he think this way now?"
"Because he loved you, Chloe! He may even still love you! He's mad because in High School he never noticed you were a woman and since I got to you first, he is mad that he couldn't see it sooner.
Chloe stood up and walked over to Lex. She sat down next to him and turned his face so he was looking her in the eye. "I love you, Alexander. Do you here me? I love you. Even if Clark never believes it, I will still love you! I told you yes when you proposed. I married you. I had your kids. Clark doesn't understand that I am in love with you! And so what? I'm happy lying in your arms, and that's all that matters. Right?"
Lex smiled at his love and kissed her lips. "Right." He answered.
"Good! Now come on, lover, lets "god to bed"." She winked and led her smiling husband out of the room.

"Why are we going to the Talon again?" Miki asked as her and her family drove towered town. "I thought we were staying away from that guy we saw the other day."
"Well," Lex smiled at Chloe who ginned back; "maybe we aren't going to the Talon."
Miki and Josh gasped and looked at each other before bursting into questions, a treat they had picked up from their mother. "Where are we going then?" "Why did you lie and tell us we were going to the Talon?" "Will there be food?" "Why wont you answer our questions?" "Why are you laughing?"
It was true. The lovers were laughing. It was funny to se such tiny versions of Chloe.
"We are going to your daddy's favorite spot in this whole city!" Chloe said. "And mine, too, for that matter."
"Where is that?" Miki and Josh asked together.
~~
The warm air shown down on the hillside. A shimmering lake sat at the bottom. A blanket was spread out on the grass with a basket on top. Miki and Josh ran up the hill with their parents right behind.
"An outside lunch!" Miki screamed and jumped up and down.
"But why is this your favorite spot?" Josh asked.
Chloe held Lex's hand and smiled at him. Lex smiled back and sat down next to the kids on the blanket. "Let me tell you kids a story, Ok?"
"OK!" They yelled gathering closer to their dad.
"I think it was... oh maybe... 11 years ago..."
~~
It was midnight on the same hill years ago. There were bright stars over head and a full moon to top off the night sky. Up the hill came Lex and Chloe. Lex was standing behind his love with his hands over her eyes.
"Were are you taking me, Alexander?" Chloe asked, laughing.
Lex led her over to the blanket that lay on the grass and smiled. "You're about to find out." He removed his hands from her eyes and she gasped.
"Oh, Alexander!" She gasped. "It's so lovely up here!" She looked up at the sky and spun around. "Oh, Alexander Joseph Luthor this is the most amazing thing in my life!" She flung her arms around his waist. She gave him a deep kiss.
"I'm glade you like it." Lex said when they broke apart. They sat down and began to eat the food inside the basket. Then they lay down on the blanket. Chloe smiled and pointed out to Lex the constellations in to real order.
Lex looked over at his love. "I've got something for you." He sat up, as did Chloe. "You know I love you, Chloe Elizabeth Sullivan. You know I would do anything for you. And there is one thing I would like you to do for me."
"And what would that be?" Chloe whispered.
He pulled out a ring bow from his pocket and opened it to show Chloe a ring with one big ruby and tiny sapphire's all around it. "Chloe, I want you to become Chloe Elizabeth Luthor. Will you marry me, and make me the happiest person on earth?"
Chloe felt tears in her eyes. She smiled and hugged him, happily. "Oh, of course I will, Lex! You don't even have to ask!"
~~
Miki and Josh smiled. "That's a great story." Miki sighed as she said it.
"So THAT'S why this is your favorite place." Josh said, nodding.
Chloe and Lex smiled at each other.
"Daddy..." Josh said.
"Yes, Joshua?"
"It's him again." Josh pointed down the hill were Lana and Clark were getting out of their car and looking at the Luthor's a little worried. Then Clark looked up and saw the family. They starting to walk up the hill and Lex and Chloe sighed.
"Oh shit." Chloe whispered. It looked like their friend hadn't given up.
