Chloe

I looked at my closet in dismay. There were no clothing items left in it. At all. None. Zippo. Zilch. All of my clothes were in various places throughout my room. The floor, the bed, the desk, the chair. I had no clothes to wear for tonight! I had to look good, for crying out loud I was having dinner with Lex Luthor! And I had absolutely nothing to wear! I spotted my favorite jeans on my bed and snatched them up. These will work. Now I need a shirt. I did a quick 360 of the room and my eyes landed on my red long sleeved top. It was perfect! It had a V-neck and the sleeves were just a little too long so they hung just over my palm. I picked it up and got in the shower. I finished washing my hair and got dressed, making sure to wear my black top underneath, just incase it got hot. It looked like a sports bra but it went all the way down to my waist. I brushed my hair out into its usual fashion, feathered out and partly covering my eyes. I brushed my teeeth and glanced at the clock. Yikes! It was five fifteen! I grabbed my purse and keys and ran out the door.

I pulled into Lex's driveway and parked my car. I took a deep breath. Come on Chloe pull yourself together, you don't like him and this is not a date. I walked into the mansion and into his den. I was involved with deciphering a painting when he came in.

"Chloe," a voice said right next to my ear. I whirled and crouched into a fighting stance. It was Lex. I relaxed slightly, dropping my hands to my sides.

"Geeze Lex, you shouldn't sneak up on people like that."

"I apologize Ms. Sullivan I hadn't realized I was sneaking."

"You are forgiven Mr. Luthor," I said, mocking his manners.

"Now if you wouldn't mind. I am curious as to where you aquired your excellent fighting stance." I looked at him and sure enough, there was his ever present smirk.

"I'm not sure that is any of your business, however, seeing as how you are doing me a favor tonight, I shall indulge your curiosity. I used to live in Metropolis and, being the overprotective man that he is, my dad enrolled me in karate lessons when I was ten. I had two years of classes before I moved here when I was thirteen. I had achieved the honor of being a black belt by then." He didn't appear as though the idea that I could fight intimidated him. In fact he looked rather intrigued.

"Well seeing as you are a little out of practice, do you think you would like a refresher course?" He was smirking again but I had no clue what he meant. But there was a challenge in his voice. As if he didn't think I could do whatever he had in mind. And being Chloe Sullivan there was no way I was going to turn down a challenge.

"As a matter of fact, I wouldn't mind one. What exactly did you have in mind?" He just smiled.

"Follow me." He turned around and walked out the door. I frowned, wondering what I had just gotten myself into. But I followed him anyway. He took me up the stairs and down the hall and into another room. There was a big, thick pad taking up the entire floor. The walls had padding on them up to about seven feet.

"Wait here," said Lex and he shut the door. I just stood there for a second. Then I put down my purse and took off my shoes. I'd realized what was going on. He was going to get those big thick gloves for me to kick and hit. But then he walked back in. And he didn't have any gloves at all. He was in a T-shirt and work out pants. And he was also in just socks.

"You do have something to exercise in? Don't you?" I realized he meant for me to fight him. Fight Lex Luthor. This was going to be fun.

"Of course Mr. Luthor."

"Lex, just Lex."

"Ok fine then, Lex. But only if you promise to call me Chloe." He grinned in response. I pulled my red top over my head, leaving me in just my small, black top. I glanced at his face and sure enough, there on his face was a total shocked expression. But he quickly masked it. He walked to the middle of the room and crouched in fighting stance.

"So Chloe, do you think you can take me?" I didn't even honor that with a response. I leaped into the air, aiming both my feet at his head. He was ready for it though he ducked down and off to the side. I flipped in the air and landed, quickly spinning to face him. He lunged at me, trying to trip me but i hopped over his leg and tripped him with mine. But he wasn't there anymore, my leg swung through air. He was behind me now, i tried a back kick, but he grabbed my leg. He pushed it up and I flipped over on my back. He was on me in an instant, pinning me with his body weight. I looked up into his eyes and my breath caught in my throat. For a second I couldn't breath, couldn't think of anything to say. Then I was saved.

"Uhh, Chloe, Lex." It was Clark, he was standing in the doorway with a shocked look. I realized how we must look. Lex on top of me, his face less than two inches from mine. Lex recovered instantly, helping me up, but I was never relaxed when I was with Clark.

"Clark, I didn't see you there. What's going on?" Lex said, with no hint of any emotion.

"It's almost nine o'clock." My mouth dropped open, I hadn't been here that long!

"Sorry Clark, Lex was just refreshing my karate skills. We must have lost track of time, sorry." My cheeks heated up and I looked at the ground.

"It's okay Chloe, I was just worried about you," said Clark. He sounded so innocent and worried, I almost cried.

"Really Clark? Thanks...well...um...I better go." I rushed out, grabbing my purse on the way. I ran to my car and got out of there as fast as I could. Oh my god Clark is so nice! But I'll never have him! I can't beat Lana. Oh Chloe? Chloe? What about Lex? What does Lex have to do with it? Weren't those his gorgeous eyes you lost yourself in for almost forever? What! I do not, I repeat, do not like Lex Luthor! I just can't.

Lex

I looked at the clock for it seemed the millionth time in the last five minutes. I was a nervous wreck. I couldn't stop fidgeting, I was pacing back in forth in front of the clock. And I had been for almost twenty minutes. Chloe Sullivan was coming to my house for dinner. I hadn't stopped thinking about her since the first time we met. When I almost killed her, what a first impression of me she must have gotten. It couldn't have been nearly as great as the impression she made on me. She was just so ...so ...different ...amazing ...gorgeous...fearless...and just so perfect. I don't know what it is about her but she drives me crazy. And she was late. It was now five minutes past five thirty. I went to check on how dinner was going.

I walked back into my den and froze. Chloe was here. She was facing away from me looking at a painting. I quietly closed the door behind me. She didn't turn around. She reached her arms up above her head and stretched.

I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. She twisted in surprise but didn't pull away.

"Lex?" she whispered. I couldn't stand it anymore. I kissed her, pulled her closer. And she kissed me back, her arms went around me.

I shook my head. You shouldn't have done that Lex. What? When you're a Luthor you don't indulge in your feelings. Oh, right. I focused my eyes and almost gasped. While in my daydream, my feet had carried me across the room. Chloe was now about two inches away from me.

"Chloe," I whispered, hoping that that one word wouldn't convey all my emotions to her. She did that last thing I expected, she spun around and crouched down, her arms rising and her hands clenched into fists.

"Geeze Lex, you shouldn't sneak up on people like that." She relaxed and stood upright.

"I apologize Ms. Sullivan I hadn't realized I was sneaking." I smirked at her, she made me want to laugh, cry, and kiss her all at the same time.

"You are forgiven Mr. Luthor," she said. She was mocking me.

"Now if you wouldn't mind. I am curious as to where you aquired your excellent fighting stance." That was true, I mean if she had lived in Smallville all her life, there is no way she would be able to know how to fight with any type of skill.

"I'm not sure that is any of your business, however, seeing as how you are doing me a favor tonight, I shall indulge your curiosity. I used to live in Metropolis and, being the overprotective man that he is, my dad enrolled me in karate lessons when I was ten. I had two years of classes before I moved here when I was thirteen. I had achieved the honor of being a black belt by then." Metropolis! Oh wow, no wonder this girl was different that the rest of the town. A black belt? This gave me an idea.

"Well seeing as you are a little out of practice, do you think you would like a refresher course?" I knew she had no clue what I was even talking about but I hoped she would say yes. I put just the right amount of challenge in my voice, hoping she couldn't resist a challenge.

"As a matter of fact, I wouldn't mind one. What exactly did you have in mind?" I smiled, apparently she couldn't.

"Follow me." I led her upstairs to the combat room.

"Wait here," I said. I shut the door and went to go change. I ran to my room and changed into a T-shirt and work out pants. I ran back to the room and then I noticed she was not in the kind of clothes you want to fight in.

"You do have something to exercise in? Don't you?" I watched her face transform as she realized what I wanted her to do. She looked like she was excited. Excited. Wow, that was more than I had expected.

"Of course Mr. Luthor."

"Lex, just Lex."

"Ok fine then, Lex. But only if you promise to call me Chloe." I smiled. But then my smile was replaced by a totally shocked expression. She was taking off her shirt! It looked like she had another one underneath but that shirt was different. It was black and small and it clung to her curves just the right way. My knees almost gave out. I hurridly walked to the center of the room and got ready to fight. If only to hide my feelings, I had to start moving.

"So Chloe, do you think you can take me?" She didn't say a word but immediately took action. She took one step and jumped into the air, aiming for my head. I ducked down and rolled to the side. She flipped and spun to face me. God this girl was amazing. I lunged at her but she dodged me and swung her leg around to trip me. But she wasn't ready for me, I was already around behind her. She tried to back kick me but I grabbed her leg and pushed up, she flipped over on her back. I immediately pinned her before she could get up. My face was inches above hers. I tried to look away, tried to get up. But as soon as her eyes caught mine I couldn't move, couldn't breathe, couldn't think. She had the most beautiful eyes I'd ever seen. Deep green and hazel at the same time, I don't think I'd ever seen eyes like hers. I needed to get up, but I was paralyzed by her gaze. Then I was rescued.

"Uhh, Chloe, Lex." It took all my willpower to tear my eyes from hers but I looked at the doorway and saw Clark. He looked absolutely shell shocked and I realized for the first time how this must look. I jumped to my feet and helped Chloe up.

"Clark, I didn't see you there. What's going on?" I carefully hid any trace of emotion from my voice.

"It's almost nine o'clock." My eyes widened, we couldn't have been fighting for that long!

"Sorry Clark, Lex was just refreshing my karate skills. We must have lost track of time, sorry." I glanced at Chloe and saw her cheeks turn a deep shade of red. She couldn't seem to meet Clark's eyes. Then it registered with me what she had said on the phone, 'I was thinking about Clark.' It dawned on me, she liked him. And I don't think I wanted to find out how much she liked him.

"It's okay Chloe, I was just worried about you," said Clark.

"Really Clark? Thanks...well...um...I better go." She ran out the door, followed closely by Clark. And then it hit me, Chloe loved him. I had done so many bad things. How could she possibly even start to like me? She just needed a favor. I thought, for one second, that maybe I could actually be happy. You were wrong.
