Please Review.

Lucky for Lois, Lex was in the kitchen and couldn't see that his nemesis had arrived at her doorstep. She pushed him in the hallway and closed the door.

"What the hell are you doing here? Clark looked extremely confused. "I came to apologize about this afternoon…Listen; I didn't mean to snap at you about leaving…" Lois cut him off. "Lex is here, and if he finds out that you and I work together, the next time I see you, you will be in a casket!"

Lois looked around to see Lex standing in her doorway; she hadn't heard him open the door. He looked major pissed. "Lois, will you go inside. I need to have a little talk with Clark here."

Uh-Oh. Lois didn't want to leave, but from the look on Lex's face, she was afraid if she didn't go Clark wouldn't have been the only one in a casket.

Lex had turned purple. "Listen Clark, you better stay away from my fiancé."

"Lex, I am not going to hurt your relationship with Lois."

"Well that's a bunch of bull, Clark. You stole the woman I loved before, you can do it again." Clark couldn't believe what he was hearing. Lex had been in love with Lana.

"We got married because she was pregnant Lex, and then after 4 years of marriage she cheated on me with one of my friends. So you can consider what I did a favor."

Lex walked into the apartment and slammed the door in Clark's face.

Lex found Lois sitting on the couch. "How long have you been working with him?"

"Since this morning, Lex. I was going to tell you but I knew this is how you would react. When Clark is around you are like a different person, one that I don't like."

Lex gave her a hug. "I'm sorry Lois. I just really hate that guy."

Lex and Lois watched Jeopardy for a while and then Lex went home.

Lois didn't understand how the two could go from being best friends to enemies.

(The Next Day)

Lois was make coffee and decided to call her favorite cousin in New York.

"So when are you come down?"

"Well, we have a flight tomorrow; John has a business trip down there so I am going to spend time with you and Clark while he is working. It is like killing two birds with one stone."

"Does John have a lot of the business trips?"

"He is a famous artist. I understand that he has to go away every once in a while."

"Chloe, how long is every once in a while?"

"Ok, about every other week."

"Chloe! The man could be living a double life for all you know."

"He isn't. He has to go down there for work. He is sumitting some of his art to the Museum. How is Clark?"

"Oh, thanks for giving him my address Chloe. He came over while Lex was here."

"Looks like I planned that well."

"Chloe!" She heard Chloe sigh. "Listen Lois. I know you still care about Clark. I also know that you don't love Lex!" Chloe always could read her like a book.

"You're right I don't. But I care a lot about him; he has always been there for me. Clark hasn't."

"Clark is the one for you, trust me. The sooner you get that in your head, the better."

Clark was fixing his breakfast, when he heard someone at the door. He opened it to see Lana, all upset. "I didn't know who else to talk to, I am so scared. I think Ted is cheating on me."

Clark wasn't at all surprised. Who would have thought the man she cheated with would cheat on her? He was scum. "What makes you think that?"

"He is always gone, Clark."

"Maybe he has a lot of business to attend to," Clark said.

"I thought that too, that was until I found an apartment key in his coat pocket."

"Maybe he visits a friend there a lot and he gave him a spare key. There is a lot of reason that he might have the key. Did you talk to him about it?" She was sobbing uncontrollably. "No, I guess I will talk to him when he gets back." Lana walked to the door, then turned and said "Thanks a lot for talking to me, Clark."
