Chapter 12
Chloe tasted so good! Clark felt like a man getting his first drink of water after a long time in the desert without the life-giving liquid. He was parched and only Chloe could satisfy his thirst. His tongue caressed hers as his hands gently moved over her body being careful not to be too intimate. They were at school after all.
Clark released her mouth and moved across her cheek and down to her neck. Her pulse was beating frantically in her neck. Clark could hear their heartbeats pounding in unison like cannon fire. Clark ran his tongue over the pulse. Chloe emitted a loud moan and shivered. Clark's pulse raced to fever pitch at the sound. He wanted to make love to her so much, it hurt. Sliding his butt to the very edge of the desk, he cupped her bottom and pulled her tightly against the juncture of his thighs. Chloe felt so good against him.
Clark's hands moved up to cup Chloe's breasts. The way he figured it, as long as her shirt was still on, it was okay. And besides, he had locked the door. His thumbs brushed over her nipples. Another loud moan pushed past her lips. From a distance Clark heard a voice. He frowned. It sounded like Lana. He pulled away from Chloe and looked at the door. The knob was turning and Lana was calling out to Chloe in a frantic voice.
Clark cleared his throat. "Chloe," he whispered.
"Hmmm, yes, Clark?" Chloe's eyes were closed as she kissed along his jaw and down to his neck. Clark sighed and just enjoyed the feeling of her soft lips on his skin. He was getting lost in the feeling when he heard the frantic banging on the door.
"Chloe, we'd better see who is at the door." Clark didn't sound too convincing. His brain was mush. Chloe's tongue flicked out to caress a particularly sensitive place behind his ear. Then Chloe suddenly stiffened and pulled away. She must have heard Lana, too.
"What the hell…" Chloe trailed off. Was someone after Lana and she needed help? Rushing to the door, Chloe flipped the lock and yanked it open.
Lana immediately rushed into The Torch office grabbing Chloe by the upper arms. "Are you okay, Chloe?"
Lana noticed Clark sitting on the edge of the desk. What was going on? Lana slowly let Chloe go and began to take in the scene before her.
Clark was tugging at the front of his shirt, pulling it down over the front of his jeans. Lana narrowed her eyes. Was that lipstick all over his mouth? Yes, it was and it was Chloe's favorite color! Clark's cheeks were flushed and his hair was messier than it usually was.
Then she looked at Chloe. Chloe's lipstick was smeared and she had a dazed expression on her face. Yeah, Clark could do that to a girl. Chloe's skin was red in places where something rough had abraded it. Possibly Clark's stubble? Lana's eyes widened at a very suspicious looking mark that was beginning to appear at the base of her neck. A couple of buttons on Chloe's blouse had slipped from their buttonholes. The edge of a very sexy red bra showed in the opening of the blouse. Oh God, they were making out and from the looks of it, they were quite into it! Shock and jealousy coursed through her body. Shock that Clark would do such a thing and jealousy that it was Chloe and not her! What was Clark thinking?
Clark cringed at Lana's expression of shock. They were so busted! Lana knew what they had been doing. Frustrated, he pushed a hand through his already mussed hair. Dammit! He just wanted some alone time with Chloe with no interruptions…was that too much to ask? What was between him and Chloe was their business, besides he didn't want rumors to spread and hurt Chloe's reputation. He didn't think Lana would do that, but he didn't want to take any chances.
Clark's glance shifted from Lana to Chloe. Chloe looked so sexy he couldn't help but grin at her. She grinned back at him, then cleared her throat and looked at Lana. "We were doing research."
"Research?" A frown appeared between Lana's perfectly arched eyebrows as she looked pointedly at the undone buttons on Chloe's shirt. Chloe looked down and gasped before looking over at Clark accusingly. When did he do that? Clark just looked at her smugly. Chloe hastily did up the buttons.
"Yeah, research." Chloe decided to stick to her story.
Lana crossed her arms over her chest. "Research…on what?" She arched those eyebrows at Chloe again. A smirk graced Lana's full lips.
Chloe bit her lip. Then she curved her lips in a smirk to match Lana's. "On how long it takes before Clark and I get interrupted when we are making out."
Clark choked. He felt his cheeks flush. He continued to watch the two girls interact. They seem to come to some sort of agreement. Lana smiled sweetly at Chloe. "I think you would have to be on another planet not to be interrupted." Clark started coughing.
Chloe was trying really hard to keep her composure. "We might just have to do that." Chloe tilted her head at Lana. "Was there something you wanted?"
Lana looked from Chloe to Clark. She could tell Clark adored Chloe and she couldn't deny their chemistry. It looked like she had lost Clark for good. She really did hope things worked out for these two. "It was nothing important. I just wanted to see if you wanted to do something this weekend. Since I started seeing Jason, you and I haven't spent much time together."
Chloe smiled. "I'd like that."
I'll talk to you later about the details. See ya later, Clark." Clark nodded. Lana left the room closing the door behind her.
Clark smiled at Chloe. "Come here."
Chloe raised her eyebrows. "Getting demanding, aren't you." She slowly walked toward Clark doing her best to look sultry.
When she was close enough to Clark for him to reach her, he gently pulled her toward him placing a soft kiss on her mouth. "I love you, Chloe."
Chloe framed Clark's face in her hands. "I love you, too."
They both sighed as they melted into each others arms both secure in the love they shared.
