Chapter 2

AN: Okay people the disclaimer is the same as in the first chapter and please over look all my mistakes. Thanks!!!

Shy Butterfly

As both men were about to walk to the entrance they were stopped by somebody screaming the name of Bruce. They turned to the direction where the scream came from and suddenly Bruce was hugged by a black-haired young woman in a blue neck-holder top and a black skirt.

"Okay Ems I think if you don't let him go you will hug him to death and to be honest I feel a little bit left out." said a person behind the hugging couple. They let go of each other and looked at the person who had obviously spoken to them and grinned.

"Do you really think I would hug my brother to death? (I don't think that Bruce has a sister so I made one up)But we are so sorry come here and we give you a hug too!" said Emma in a mock apologizing voice.

"Liar and no I think I'll pass because the people around us could get the wrong impression." came the sneer replay that reminded Lex to much of Chloe for his own liking. He couldn't see the person who owned this voice because Bruce and his sister if he understood correctly were hiding her. After a few seconds he grew impatience and said so.

They all moved together to the entrance and this time Lex caught a glance of the woman that was a few seconds before hidden by the other two. She had short blond hair with black streaks and her body was in good shape as he saw that it reminded him all the more at Chloe. As he looked more closely at her he saw that it was indeed Chloe. He stopped the entire group as he said: "Ms. Sullivan it is nice to meet you...here but I don't think that you will get in."

As she heard that deep calm voice say her name she whirled around and looked at the smirking face of no other then Lex Luthor.

"Mr. Luthor I think you have no idea of what I'm capable of so stay back and look." With that she winked at him grinned at Emma who grinned back and then walked to the entrance.

The man who stood at the entrance was letting the next few people from the line in the club as Chloe stood next to him and tipped him on the shoulder.

The big bulky man turned around and found himself looking in a very familiar face. After a moment he registered who stood before him and swept her up in his arms and they shared a short kiss and then a big hug.

"Hey Tiger it's good to see you again. How have you been?" he smiled at her and let her down. She smiled back and replayed honestly: "I'm good now but I miss the city and you and all my other friends but I'm here now so it doesn't madder in the moment. But where were you, Jo, as I was here the last time I visited?" she asked in a teasing tune.

"I was out of town...on vacation. As I was back and they told me you had visited I was angry at myself for not seeing you." he explained "But we can talk later when I'm on my break alright?" Chloe nodded and then looked at Emma who took hold of the two men and brought them with her to the entrance. Jo let them in ignoring the protests that were coming from the people in the line.

Lex was shocked as he saw Chloe and the man kissing and hugging and there was a feeling that he couldn't really place. Something like jealousy but he felt never jealous and certainly not because of Chloe. They were not even an item and still he couldn't help himself but feel angry that another man got to hug and kiss her when he didn't.

When Chloe looked back at them he noticed the twinkle in her eyes as she looked at him. She then turned her eyes to Emma and suddenly he was pulled to the entrance. Emma and the bulky man greeted each other with a hug and Chloe was pulling him and Bruce into the club. After a few seconds Emma was beside her and together they looked for their friends.

They found them in the right corner and Emma told Chloe that she should wait her, she would get the other girls and they would meet in the restroom. Both girls turned to Lex and Bruce who were standing behind them and Chloe screamed so that they would hear her: "It was nice meeting you I hope that you have a nice night in the "Deep Glow". Maybe we run into each other again." and Emma added in the direction of her brother: "Oh and Bruce you should save me a dance. Bye." Emma and Bruce hugged one last time and then shook hands with Lex: "It was nice meeting you Mr. Luthor." Then it was Chloe's turn and she shook hands with Bruce and turned to Lex: "I'm sure we will see us again Mr. Luthor." Lex smirked had her and replayed: "It's Lex Chloe, haven't I told you that?" The short blond chose not to give him an answer.

The men said goodbyes but Lex promised himself that he kept a close eye on Chloe but only for Gabe's sake he told himself. He and Bruce turned and walked in the direction of the bar and the women walked in the opposite direction then splitting up, Chloe towards the restroom and Emma towards a table in the right corner.

As Chloe came into the restroom she made sure that nobody was in there and sat down on the sofa that was standing in one corner.

What is Lex Luthor doing here I mean he said he wouldn't go to clubs anymore. I can't believe that why is that happening to me. God if he tells my dad how I have greeted Jo...I'm in so much trouble right now. I mean I hate to say that but he looked really hot and that sexy smirk of him...

"Stop it Chloe it is not good for you to think of him like that. Get a hold of your self: Luthor is a bad guy, Luthor is a bad guy, Luthor is a bad guy. Okay I don't think that will help me." she murmured to herself.

Just as she had said that the door burst open and all the girls came in the last was Emma who closed the door behind her. They explained to Chloe how they want to surprise the others with her presence.

"Okay Tiger listen when we are out of here and settled at our places on the table we make sure that there is one chair free. In the meantime you go to the bar and got the drinks for us. John will be waiting at the bar and is giving them to you then you return to our table set the drinks down and then sat down in the free chair alright?" explained Mara a brown-haired girl that was in Chloe's age. As the blond nodded they split again and began to work on their plan.

Chloe went up to the bar and saw that Lex was sitting there talking to Bruce but she didn't saw John so she decided to asked Kyle the barkeeper where her old friend was. As Kyle saw her coming he went around the bar towards here and swept her up in his arms just like Jo. Kyle greeted her with a kiss on her forehead and she greeted him with a kiss on his cheek.

"Hey Tiger it is nice to see you again John had told me about the plan you have to surprise the others and asked me if I could give you the drinks because he wants to see the faces from them when they see you. So I'll just go and make them and you sit so we can talk a little bit."

Chloe nodded and they chatted while Kyle prepared the drinks all the while were people coming to greet Chloe but every time they called her Tiger and Lex wondered why. He saw her coming to the bar but didn't stop talking with Bruce. He saw the greeting between the barkeeper and her it was similar to the greeting with the man at the entrance and the feeling he had then was coming now back to him. Lex wandered why Chloe, his plant manager's under-aged daughter, could wake such feelings in him.

Chloe sat down and talked to the barkeeper and other people that were coming to her and every time he heard them call her Tiger.

Lex grew curious and just as he decided to go to asked her as to why they called her by this name Chloe stood up and left the bar with a try.

She knew that Lex was looking at her as she stood up she could feel his eyes on her back and it made her uncomfortable. She went to the table of her friends and just like Kyle had said John was sitting by them. He grinned at her as he saw her making her way over to the table.

Chloe sat the drinks down but the boys didn't even look at her because they were discussing a basketball game then she sat down but nothing happened. They were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't even notice that their drinks had arrived.

The girls were surprised they hadn't thought that they would be so dumb to not notice her and were about to speak up as Chloe told them with a shake of her head to be quite.

"That is a nice way to greet a long lost friend. I'm glad to be so important to you that you can't even say hello. You have truly hurt my feelings and I think I'm going to go. Bye." mocked Chloe and as she was about to get up all the boys were throwing them at her and hugging her.

"Okay guys I know now how important I am to you so could you please let go of me because I need air to breath and I need to breath so that I can life and come to visit you a next time." Chloe screamed over the music. All the guys laughed at her statement but let her go and sat back down themselves besides their girlfriends. They talked for a while and the boys were filled in, in Chloe's life in Smallville, why she was back in the city for the next few days and why the girls haven't said a thing about her being back.

Then they went off to the dance floor and began to move the couples together but Chloe all on her own. It didn't bother her because she knew that they would do it and she loved to dance with strangers. This way it was more exiting for her. After two hours of dancing she went back to the table and saw that all the couples were kissing including Emma and Mike.

She sat down and sighed after five more minutes of kissing it was enough: "Can you please stop it I'm getting really depressed here."

"Oh Chloe you know Lex Luthor is still sitting at the bar and staring at you. If I wouldn't know it better I would say he is very possessive of you because every man who gets near you is killed by one of Lex glares. Maybe you should go over to him and kiss him?" teased Emma.

"Have you set that up Emma? God I can't believe you how could you do that? Just because your brother is best friends with Lex doesn't mean that you could set us up. In addiction you should know that he never could like me because I'm not a model and he is a billionaire he can have every woman he want so why me?" as she had ended she stormed of to the dance-floor.

"Ems has you really set her up?" asked Mike and the confusion was evident in his voice.

"Yeah I did but just because I thought that she should act on her feelings. I wanted her to be happy she deserves better then that Kent kid who has hurt her more then once. I called Bruce this morning because I knew that he had today a meeting with Lex and I asked him if he could persuade Lex to come with him and that we would meet us here." admitted Emma.

"Oh Emma how could you! You know how Chloe would react to that. I think you should go after her and talk to her." the others nodded in approval and after a little bit of hesitation Emma stood up and walked towards Chloe.

Lex blood was boiling as he saw that all the men around the table were hugging her. His view was broken as Bruce waved his hand in front of Lex face.

"Lex what is going on you are staring all the time at the friend of my sister..."

"Chloe...her name is Chloe." broke Lex into Bruce's sentence.

"Right Chloe so then you are staring the entire time at Chloe and every time a guy comes near her you glare at them. If Chloe was your girlfriend you had told me that and then she would be sitting with you but she is not so stop the glaring or tell me what's up." Bruce told him in a calm tune.

"I just have a close eye on her for the sake of her father." replayed the bald man.

"That is bull shit A and you know that, so what is really on your mind?" asked his now concerned friend.

"To be honest I have no idea but I hate it when she is kissing or hugging somebody else then me and that's bad because..." here he trailed off but Bruce finished the sentence for him.

"...because a Luthor doesn't feel that kind of feeling. Oh and by the way this feeling is called jealousy. Maybe you should act on your feelings, I mean if you got jealous because somebody is looking at her then you have got it bad. From what I know from Emma she doesn't see you as Lionel Luthors son but as Lex and just as Lex. Today outside of the club she doesn't seem to care that your last name is Luthor and that's why Emma likes her so much. Chloe sees the people for who they are for their actions and not because of their last name." ended Bruce his speech.

As Lex looked back to the table where Chloe and her friends were sitting he saw that Chloe was very angry with Bruce's sister and then she stormed off to the dance floor.

Maybe Bruce was right and he should act on his feelings, he thought and then stood up excused himself by Bruce and walked towards Chloe.
