A/N: The end snuck up on me.. and I apologize... Chapter 18 is the end.

17. The man who has everything

As soon as he was gone, Lex turned to Chloe and kissed her.

"You. Were. Amazing." He said between kisses. Then he realized what he had done. And let go of her.

Turning away from her he spoke. "So, that food must be getting cold."

Chloe looked at her watch, and blushing softly she said. "The news is over." She couldn't believe that he had kissed her. She had secretly hoped that would, but never, in a million years would she have thought that Lionel was the reason behind what Lex had done. Not that she was complaining.

"Chloe I have over 200 channels, I'm sure the news is on on one of them." He said with a laugh, as he offered her his hand.

She smiled. "Right, I forgot." She said taking his proffered hand. "But I should have known. You are the man who has everything." She looked up at him and winked.

"I don't have everything." He said. His eyes were searching her own. A smile tugged at her mouth. What was it about this man that made her want to smile? What was it about him that made her feel safe enough to talk back to the man who killed her father. What was it about Lex Luthor that made her feel?

"Yes you do." She said leading him back to the food. And inevitably his bedroom.

He followed her as she led him to his bedroom. A smirk on his face. She sat him down on his bed. He smiled. She closed the curtains. Turned. Smiled back at him. She fell on his bed with a not so elegant thump.

He laughed softly. "Have a nice fall?" He asked a soft smile on his face.

"Oh yeah." She said grabbing his shoulders from behind him. She was kneeling behind him. He could feel her body softly pressing up against him as she whispered into his ear. "Would you like to have a nice fall?" She asked her voice like velvet against his ear.

"I already have fallen, Chloe." He said plainly, as he turned his head to face her.

Her beautiful eyes were searching his. Searching them for something. He knew that she was searching for the same thing that he was. Searching for the one thing they lost. The one thing that they both craved. He knew that he craved it. The look in her eyes were telling him that it was what she craved as well.

He turned completely around, his knee between her two. Shock was playing on her face. She hadn't expected that move he guessed. Her eyes were still level, unmoving. Dauntless.

Then he kissed her. Eyes open to catch her reaction. A blush. Closed eyes. Eyelashes fluttering. A soft guttural moan. He had found the one thing that he was missing. He was now the man with everything.

'What do you get the man who has everything?' The thought played over in her mind. It was the silent mantra for today. The one thought lingered as he ended the kiss. He looked at her. Eyes open. Hands on her calves. Below her butt.

They had four things in common. One: they both were free from the grasps of Lionel Luthor. Two: They still had a lot to get over. Three: They both wanted each other. Badly. Four: They were too stubborn to admit number three.

Judging by the look on his face, Chloe figured that number three wasn't going to be that big of a problem anymore.

Lex gently pushed her back against the bed. She was now laying beneath him. Hovering over her he kissed her again. His hands getting more adventurous, as her tongue spurred him on.

The news was forgotten. It wouldn't be that much different tomorrow.

The food was forgotten.

Set aside for later. A little voice quipped.

'It would be cold later.' Her mind reasoned.

But try and tell that to Lex Luthor, the little voice replied, the man who now indeed has everything.

She relented and gave herself to the man with everything. The man who stole her heart with one 'Miss Sullivan'. And sealed her fate after finding her in Gotham. She was what he needed to officially have the one thing he was missing. The one thing that she knew he craved. The one thing that she knew she could give him. Love.

She was doomed.

But she was enjoying every minute of it.
