CH 4 The Date
She was looking at herself in the mirror, the eyes looking back at her were brown, she ran her fingers through her long brown hair, her skin deeply tanned, sometimes she didn't even recognize her self. They took her to St. Thomas Island and told her to lie out in the nude, because she needed all of her body to be darker to look different. They covered up her scars and she told them not do any plastic surgery on her face; she couldn't let Lionel take everything from her.
She had no other family and all her friends were in Smallville and they didn't even know where she was, she was alone.
She first saw them at her father's burial there were three of them then. Then she woke up to see them sitting by her hospital bed, a man and a women in their early 20's. They told her they knew who was she was, they said they were going to help her disappear. So she went with them. They gave her reason to keep on living.
The room phone rang Lex was waiting downstairs. She put her fingers through her hair and looked one last time at the mirror, hoping to see a glimmer of the person she used to be.
As they were driving to Metropolis, she couldn't help but stare out the window at her birthplace. Would everything have turned out this way, if I never moved to Smallville
They pulled up to a restaurant called Suiren or translated in English meant Water Lily
There were advantages to being a Luthor, he reserved a private Tea Room for him and Amanda. The staff greeted them warmly as they entered the restaurant a waitress dressed in the traditional kimono took them to the back. Where they took off their shoes and walked to the beautifully decorated Japanese room. They sat down on the floor on the soft pillows. The waitress handed them warm towels, while another handed them their menus.
Chloe was looking around the room, she had seen this place when she lived here but it was always too expensive for her and her dad to eat here.knowing that now they never would There was a beautifully painted picture of a waterfall with lush greenery on the wall.
The waitress came back to take their orders.
"I'll have the Suki Yaki Beef" said Lex
"I'll have the Ginger Chicken" Chloe told the waitress
They also ordered a wide variety of different sushi. When their food arrived the waitress placed it on their table, bowed and slid the rice doors closed to give them privacy.
They ate and talked about different things, neither talking about their pasts. Lex loved looking at her smile. why do I feel this way towards her, it's the same way I felt when I was with Chloe
After the dinner they shared a green tea ice cream, feeding each other of their spoons. Watching her lick her lips after each bite was making Lex hard. He wanted this woman.
They were laughing as they walked to his door from the elevator. He opened the door and they went in. He showed her which room was hers from the doorway.
They were standing really close together in the hallway. Chloe leaned against the wall.
Lex lowered his head, closing the small space between them, and touched his lips to hers. Her purse dropped to floor. Maybe she would not need her room after all thought Lex.
And she kissed him back, her lips parting and her tongue touching his, her hands went up and massaged the back of his smooth head. This how I'd always imagined it would be like.
He took her in his arms and devoured her mouth with his. And even when they parted, breathless, he kept on, planting tiny little kisses along her jaw and throat, caressing her with his hands. Her eyes were closed, her head thrown back, her pulse pounding beneath his fingertips.
"Chloe," he whispered hoarsely
Chloe pulled away from him did he recognize me? But Lex looked really freaked out.
"I'm sorry" he mumbled backed into the other wall and ran to his room.
Chloe was standing where he left her, she would've fallen if she weren't already leaning against the wall. He didn't recognize me, but he called out my name
She walked to her room did Lex have feeling for me? Chloe thought while lying in her bed. He thinks I'm some one else why would he call out my name. I can't keep lying to him, maybe they're right I should leave before I make things worse.
Lying in his bed Lex was replaying what just happened.Oh God I called her Chloe.... I thought she was Chloe...
