I disclaim. I own nothing.

AN: This chapter is...well the reason for the M rating. This is my first go at writing an adult chapter so I'd really appreciate what everything thinks. Thanks to everyone who reviewed, it was great getting the feedback on this story.

Chapter 5

Davis didn't ease into consciousness, but shot up, ramrod straight on the couch. It was the absence of Chloe's weight that had his heart pounding erratically in his chest. He'd been sleeping peacefully, Chloe was there in his dream, which meant the monster wasn't. But the moment she'd gone, he felt even before he saw that...thing charging at him. He all but felt the claws scrap across his chest as he bolted out of the dream.

"You're not running out there naked. Damn it, cuz, don't make me take you down. Fine. I'll go check."

Davis heard the voice, just before Chloe's cousin stepped into the room.

"He lives. And he's fine." Lois shouted back so that Chloe could hear her.

Davis rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, he wondered how she managed to look threatening in a ridiculous pair of Bugs Bunny pajamas. "That's a matter of opinion." He finally noticed the bottle of aspirin and the water on the table in front of him. "Oh, thank God." He didn't bother counting the pills out. Simply dumped them in his hand and tossed them in his mouth.

"Know where you are hero?"

"Chloe's apartment." Davis mumbled. "You're Lois." He gestured to himself. "Davis Bloome."

"Tell me, Davis, did you intentionally inhale that drink or was that just dumb luck."

"I thought she switched them." His face darkened with his anger. "If I ever see that little bastard..."

He didn't have to finish his thought, Lois had a pretty good idea what his intentions were. "Makes two of us. Look, I have to go shower and change myself. Tell my cousin I'll see her in school."

Something about the way she said it let Davis know that it would be in his best interest to make sure Chloe got to school. When she left, he thought about laying back down and getting a few more hours sleep. But then the altogether too enticing aroma of coffee filtered into his nostrils. Making his way across the room, he felt a breeze under his left arm, and reached around to feel the rip in his shirt. Since it already appeared to be toast, he gave it a tug, sending the buttons scattering before tossing it aside.

"Hey, Lo-" Wrapped in her bathrobe, Chloe came to a skittering halt at the sight of Davis. Hey.

"Hey. Your cousin said she'd see you at school." Her hair was still wet from her shower. Davis watched, with rapt attention, as a droplet of water fell from the end of her hair onto her collar bone and slid slowly beneath the robe. All the muscles in his stomach clenched and twisted painfully. "I, uh, I...coffee?"

It was one thing to imagine the places his mind had taken, but to actually see the things he wanted to do to her had her leaning against the wall for support. "What?"

"I think your cousin made coffee." Davis had to shake his head clear it. "Do you want a cup?"

"Yeah. Yeah, I'll get it."

More than happy to step back so that he could follow her into the kitchen, Davis allowed his gaze to travel down her body. It seemed like she and her cousin shared an appreciation for the Looney Tunes, if the picture of Daffy Duck on the back of her robe was anything to go by. He wondered if it was genetics that had them wearing the cartoon characters so well. "I think if I don't get you to school today, she may hurt me."

"I'm surprised she even left. How are you feeling?"

He watched as her robe rose temptingly when she reached into the cupboard for two mugs. "Huh, oh. Woke up a little groggy, but it's nothing a cup of coffee won't fix."

Chloe tossed a smile over her shoulder. "That's how I feel about everything. Cream? Sugar?"

"I think I'll take the first one straight up." All he had to do was shift his feet and his chest was pressed against her back. His fingers moved lightly over the curve of her neck. Leaning over he brushed his lips over her ear. "You feel amazing. It should be illegal for anyone to be so soft."

Chloe felt her entire body shudder at his touch, causing her to knock over one of the mugs. "I think Smallville's law enforcement had bigger fish to fry with your father on the loose."

"If I was on the force I'd follow you everywhere." His lips were at her neck now as his hand loosened the belt on her robe. "Crime would be running rampant in the streets, the whole town would fall, and all because of you." He worked the belt loose but didn't move to open the robe. Thought maybe he was pushing his luck until he felt her lean back against him.

"What are you doing?" Chloe asked even as she lifted her arms to wrap around his neck in a reverse embrace.

"Whatever you let me do."

This was a bad idea. Actually this was the accumulation of all the bad ideas she had in the last twenty-four hours. But for reasons completely unknown to her, her mind and body both seemed willing to throw caution to the wind. "Oh...God." The muscles in her thighs began to tremble when his hand slipped inside her robe. She was already wet, had been from the moment she saw him standing shirtless in her living room.

While one of his hands parted her folds, the other tilted her head back to expose more of her neck to him. His teeth sank into that lovely spot where her shoulder sloped to meet her neck, before leaving a trail of heated kisses up to her ear. "The first moment," He breathed into her ear. "Wanted you like this from the very first moment I saw you." His mouth closed over her throat just as he plunged two fingers into her.

Fuck! Her knees gave out. The only thing keeping her upright was his body pressing hers against the counter. She was going to have the most unexplainable bruise running across her stomach. That along with marks he was surely leaving on her neck were going to send Lois into a fit, but at the moment her cousin's likely violent reaction was the furthest thing from her mind.

"Feel good?"

"Yes." Chloe moaned, trying her best to stave off the orgasm building swiftly inside of her. So good.

"Let go, Chloe." Davis began to thumb her clit as his fingers kept up a frantic pace inside her. I got you. Just let go.

Chloe shook her head. "Not yet." One of her hands dropped to his wrist, trying to slow his movements. Slower. Deeper. She whimpered when he pulled his fingers from her body.

"Show me." His wet fingers tangled with hers to draw her hand down to her center. Show me what you like.

She could feel his erection pressing against the small of her back. The frantic beat of his heart matching her perfectly. His breath was fluttering against her ear. Somewhere in the apartment her cellphone was going off like mad. But Chloe's entire focus was centered at the spot where their fingers met.

Davis was painfully hard. Thought if she rubbed her cute little ass against him one more time he'd embarrass himself something awful. "Want you. Want you so bad." The hand that had previously been tilting her head back, slid down to cup her breast.

Then it happened. His mouth closed over her pulse, his fingers gave her nipple a none-to-gentle tug, just as she pressed their fingers over the bundle of nerves inside her body. Before she even realized what was happening, before she could prepare herself, she erupted viciously in his arms.

Turning her head, Davis had to cover her mouth with his to muffle her screams.

"Oh....God." Helplessly, Chloe collapsed against the counter, her body shaking from the force of her orgasm. For long moments the only sound that could be heard were their labored breathing. She felt him drag their joined hands up her body. Managing to turn her head just as he brought their wet fingers to his mouth. An appreciative moan sounded in his throat as he sucked both their fingers clean. "I can't-" She had to take a deep, much needed gulp of air. "I can't feel my legs."

"Neither can I." Davis' entire body felt heavy and weighed down. "Maybe we should." He began to lower them both to the floor. They were sleep before they touched down.

It was the sound of the telephone ringing that finally broke through and stirred the sleeping couple. By the time Chloe motivated herself to move, the ringing stopped. Content to stay curled into Davis' side, she nestled her head back on his shoulder. Before her eyes could close, the ringing started again. With an impatient sigh she pushed up, grabbed her discarded robe, and started for the phone.

"What?" She all but barked into the phone

"Chloe? Do you know what time it is? Why are you still home?"

"Jeez, Lo, calm down." Chloe turned her back when Davis climbed to his feet and began to stretch. "Late night, remember. I just went back to bed. I'll be there shortly." She hung up the phone before her cousin could say anything else.

"Oh, God." With a heavy sigh Chloe dropped her head into her hands. How, she wondered, how had her life come to this? Something was done to her, she was completely out of control, and the worse part was she was getting to the point where she didn't particularly care. "Don't touch me." She didn't have to look up to know Davis was behind her, she could feel him. Knew his intentions before he could fully realize them. "I have to get ready for school."

"Why? You already missed your morning sessions." Davis knew he sounded petulant, but he wanted her with him so badly he couldn't help it.

"Because, if I don't go they're going to call my dad." They were likely going to call him anyway. "More importantly if I don't my cousin will be back here banging down that door and attempting to slice you open."

"Fine. I'll go grab a quick shower, come back, and take you to school."

"You don't have to do that."

Davis grinned even though he knew she couldn't see it. "Sure I do, you left your car at the school yesterday."

"Davis," Chloe had waited until he was at the door to speak. "What are we doing?"

At the door his dimples winked with his smile. "Getting ready to go to school." When she rewarded him with a shy smile, he felt the words build in his throat, but refused to let them past his lips. She wouldn't believe him anyway. "I'll see you soon."
