why me?
"You should really get that checked," came Clark's voice from somewhere in reality, bringing Lex back to the here and now, he slowly brought his focus back on Clark.
"Excuse me?" Lex questioned, giving him a look that expressed his confusion.
"You went to that other place you inhabit at times," a voice answered from behind him. He knew that voice. Turning around, he smiled down at the object of his affection...and annoyance. He felt like leaning in and expressing the warmth behind that smile. But, stopped himself after realizing what he was actually thinking about doing.
"As opposed to the alternate reality that you inhabit 24/7, whereas you're the center of the world and we all merely revolve around you?" Lex chimed, grinning. He moved in towards the counter, around Chloe, as to set his cup down, but, then leaned into her alittle more, and whispered, so as only she could hear him, "Might as well keep the show running."
He set the cup down, and returned to his orginal standing position, noting the smile on Chloe's face.
"Well, sorry, *Lex* that we all can't live in that little universe where you're as...well endowed as you claim to be," Chloe retorted, causing Lex to almost cough. Both Lana and Clark's eyes went wide.
"Well, if you'd like to could go someplace alittle more private, I could show you that we do indeed live in that wonderful world," Lex cooed, gently grabbing her hand, and placing a kiss upon her fingertips.
Chloe, at first, responded with a slight blush, then... "Now, Lex..." she chided, taking his hand off hers by crushing his fingers together, causing Lex to mentally go owie, "We wouldn't want you to get all excited, I mean, at your age..."
"Okay, okay," Lana broke in, which was lucky, because both Lex and Chloe were now throwing daggers at each other, and not just any daggers. Daggers with jagged edges whose blades were as hot as fire. "That's enough, guys. I think a time- out or something might do you both some good."
"I think she's right," Clark agreed, giving Lana a lovey dovey look that made Lex wanna gag.
"Yeah, *Chlo--we*, wouldn't want you to pop a vein," Lex quipped, cocking his head to the side, raising his eyebrows.
"I'm just trying to save you from some embarrassment. We all know you hate being described as...less than average," Chloe responded, smiling up at him.
"Whoo," Lex breathed, "You've grown balls since the last time I saw you...then again, it was bound to happen sooner or later, what with all the meteorite exposure you've had."
At this, Chloe just about lunged at Lex. That is, she would have if Lana hadn't come up and grabbed her arm. She led her away from the rest of the group, where they couldn't be heard.
"Geez, Lex. Glad to see you guys are getting along," Clark praised, smiling, a look of worry on his face. Glancing over to where the girls were standing, he noticed Chloe's head was down, and Lana seemed to almost be comforting her, "Strange."
Of course, Lex knew this was strange, too. He was watching the same scene. He also had this really bad feeling, guilt mixed with a lot of other things. He wanted to go over and apoligize, to say he didn't mean to get so caught up. But, it was difficult with her around, she always had a way of getting him, well, hot.
"Hey, Luthor," Pete said from his left, jolting Lex back into the world, "Hehe, I see what you mean, Clark."
"Huh?" Lex asked, tearing his eyes away from Chloe.
"Clark was just filling me in on the events of the day while you were off in Lala Land," Pete explained before Clark had a chance to.
"Yeah, Lex, what's with you today?" Clark asked, his voice leaning towards worry, "Feeling okay?"
"I'm fine, just...distracted," he answered, swinging his eyes back towards Chloe.
Pete raised his eyes, and gave Clark a look. Clark just shrugged and smiled.
