Lex looked again at the papers that he held in his hands. They were Chloe's letters that Lana had kept from him. "Chloe this upsets me too but let's not kill her okay?" Lex grabbed Chloe's shoulders and looked her there was no way he was going to let either one of them to do something that they would regret.

Lana stepped into the room with a book in her hand. "What are you guys doing in here?" She asked staring at them both not seeing that they had found the letters.

"How dare you." Chloe shouted at Lana. "Do you know what you have done?" Chloe looked at her and Lex stayed close behind her in case she was going to hurt Lana.

"I don't know what you are talking about."

"Don't play dumb Lana." Lex said as he glared at her. "You disgust me. How could you do this to my family?"

Lana then looked at the papers on the bed realizing that they had found what she had been trying to hide for so long. "She isn't right for you."

"So you take away his right for him to know his child just because you want to get laid." Chloe shouted at Lana again, her anger was boiling up inside of her. "How dare you do that to him and to her? She needed a father and you took that away from both of them. I hate you." Chloe said and she slapped Lana across her face glad that Leah wasn't in the room.

Lex took hold of Chloe's shoulders he had let her hit Lana because he knew that was what Lana deserved but he didn't want it going any farther than that. "Get the hell out of my house and know that you are no longer welcome here ever again." Lana threw the book at them and then left the room. Then Chloe and Lex went back to the study where Leah was still sleeping. "How did you know it was her?"

"I had a feeling it was and I decided to make sure. I guess I was right." Chloe sat down on the sofa across from her sleeping daughter.

"I didn't even think that it was her. I wish I had known then this whole thing with David would have never happened." Lex sat down next to her and he looked at Leah.

"Don't blame yourself Lex. I know you would have been there for us." Chloe took his hand rubbing it with hers. "Let's just look forward to the future and forget the past. I love you so much." Chloe told him turning his head toward her and placing a gentle kiss on his lips.

"I love you too." Lex told her when they had broken away from the kiss.

Then Leah woke up and she looked at them both. "We here?"

Chloe laughed at her daughter. "Yes we are here."

"Hurts." Leah told them pointing to her bruised arm.

"I'll go get you some ice." Lex told Leah as he got up from the couch and headed towards the kitchen. He came back a few minutes later with an ice pack and he placed it on Leah's arm.

"We live here?" Leah asked looking at her mom.

"Yes we are going to live here." Chloe said looking at her daughter with tired eyes.

"Mommy tired?" Leah asked her touching her face.

"Yes it's been a long day." Chloe told her daughter.

"Bed time?"

"Are you still tired?" Lex asked Leah he didn't think that she would be since she had already slept for a long time. Leah shook her head at him, so he lifted her up and they all walked up the stairs to their rooms. Chloe followed Lex to where Leah's room was. Lex pushed the door open and turned on the light. Chloe stepped into the room and smiled when she saw what Lex had done to this room.

"Pajamas?" Leah asked glancing at her teddy bear bag that was lying on her bed.

"I'll get her changed Lex." Chloe told him taking Leah and going through the bag that the butler had obviously brought up.

"I'll meet you across the hall then. Goodnight Leah." Lex told them and then he walked across the hall to his room.

Once Chloe had gotten Leah dressed for bed, got her teeth brushed, and tucked in she turned off the light and then headed to Lex's room. She saw him lying on the bed looking at a bunch of paperwork and her spirits came down some. This had broken them a part before and she didn't want it to happen again. Once Lex saw her he picked up the paperwork, and put it on his night stand. "Her room is gorgeous Lex."

"Thank you Chloe." Lex looked at her still eyeing the paperwork. "I promise that things are going to be different this time. If I have to I'll give up the company to keep you both Chloe." Lex wanted her to know just how serious he was about not hurting her again.

"You would do that for us?" Chloe asked him with surprise she knew that he loved LutherCorp and although she hoped that if the company was getting in the way of their relationship he would stop, she never thought that he would hear those words out of her mouth.

"Of course I would. I've never loved anything as much as I love you and Leah."

Chloe moved over to the bed and laid down on it. "I've never loved anything more than the two of you either."

Lex looked at her and stroked her cheek. "If I ever do something that you don't like let's talk about it okay. Sometimes I don't realize that I'm hurting people."

"I'll let you know next time Lex." Chloe then kissed him passionately. "Goodnight." She told him when she broke away from their kiss.

"Goodnight Chloe." Lex told her as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead.

When Chloe woke up in the morning Lex wasn't beside her. She went across the hall and saw that Leah was out of her room as well. So she made her way down to Lex's study figuring that they might be in there. When she walked in she saw Leah coloring on some print out characters that Lex must have printed for her. Then she saw Lex and she could tell that something was wrong.

"Good morning Leah." Chloe said going over to Leah and giving her a hug. "Why don't you go to the dining room and get some food." Chloe told her after they stopped hugging. She wanted to know what Lex had on his mind and she assumed that it wasn't something that Leah should hear. Once Leah was safely out of earshot Chloe looked at Lex. "What's wrong?"

"David committed suicide last night." Lex told her solemnly he knew that even though David had behaved in a horrible fashion before, Leah loved him.

Chloe looked at him her eyes filling with tears she knew that this was going to devastate Leah. "I don't even know if I can tell her."

"I think it's better if she knows now. I know it's going to be hard, I would tell her but you know her better than I do and I don't know how to explain this to a child."

"She does need to know and she needs to know about you. I better tell her before she resents me because I didn't tell her that you were her father." Chloe looked at him and gave him a small smile and then she walked into the dining room to break the news she had.

Lex waited in his study hoping that Leah was going to be alright and not think that David killing himself was her fault. He was also wondering how she was going to take the news that he was her biological father.

Chloe came back into the study about an hour later holding Leah in her arms. He could tell that Leah was sad, and he had no doubt that she wouldn't be. David had helped to raise her and no matter what he had done to them, Leah was never going to forget him. Chloe sat down on the couch and Lex went over and sat next to them. Leah peeked at him and Lex gave her a small smile. Then Leah reached out to him.

"You can stay with your mom." Lex told her but Leah shook her head and climbed into his lap. Lex held her and he looked at Chloe curiously, he thought that Leah might hate him for not being in her life even if she was still a young child.

Leah buried her head into him and he heard her say in a small voice "daddy". Lex thought that he might cry he had never thought that Leah would call him that so soon. He thought that it might even take years for her to call him that. After awhile she fell asleep in his arms and that's when Lex turned his head towards Chloe who hadn't spoken since Leah had come over to him.

"I didn't think that she would call me that so soon." Lex said looking at Chloe.

"I think she figured it out before I told her. She said her eyes were the same as yours when you first started watching her. Now she really believes that you are her father." Chloe told him as she looked at her sleeping daughter who was still gripping Lex's shirt.

"She's defiantly our daughter." Lex said running his fingers through Leah's long hair.

"I feel kind of jealous of how much she loves you. Don't get me wrong, I want her to love you this way but when she chooses you over me…"

"It hurts you." Lex interrupted her as he looked at her with compassionate eyes. "She's known you longer she should want to be with you more. I get what you mean Chloe. If this hurts you too much then I'll back off."

"I don't want you to back off Lex. I'm just going to have to get over it. If we had been together when I had her things would be the same way. I'm sure she would still choose one of us over the other."

"She is always going to love you more Chloe. You have known her longer."

"I think she is going to be daddy's little girl though. She is going to have you wrapped around her little finger." Chloe laughed looking at her child in the arms of the man that she loved. "This is how it was always supposed to be."

"This is the way it is always going to be. I'm going to give up LuthorCorp and just take care of the two of you. I'm not about to let you go because I'm being stupid again." He touched Chloe's face and gave her a kiss the best way he could without waking his daughter. "From now on my family comes first."

"I'm glad Lex I think that we are going to live one happy life together."

"I do too." Lex held his daughter close and then felt Chloe's head rest on his shoulder. This is how he would always want things to be, always having the two loves of his life this close to him. Nothing could ever come before his family anymore.
