Lex Luthor Fanfiction (Smallville)

After the ordeal, you're presenting your discovery to the kents. Jonathan is standing next to the counter, and Martha looks concerned. None of them have been able to figure out just what happened. With Clark's abilities, they've always been at a disadvantage, so it hurts that they can do so very little for you.

"What triggered it, what were you doing before?" Clark suggests backtracking. So you try.

"Before..." The memory that returns makes you immediately blush. All the kents on now watching you are intrigued.

"(Y/N)?" Clark inquires.

"Nothing! I wasn't doing anything!" you deny.

"It doesn't sound that way." Martha says.

"Did something happen with you and Lex, he looked pretty guilty when he told us you rushed off. " The mention of his name triggered a negative response from Jonathan.

You know it's stupid to lie to them, especially Clark. If they don't know the reason then they won't be able to help you control it, and you're not really trying to get that way again. Your shoulder slump in defeat.

"I was..kissing Lex."

To say they didn't expect that was probably an understatement. Clark had been there when you got stuck under the mistletoe, but he didn't think much of it. Chloe was just trying to have a little fun. The fact that you'd share a kiss with Lex outside of that was..surprising.

"Excuse me!!" Jonathan looks like he's about to blow.

"That bastard!" You know what's about to happen. Jonathan has morphed into his protective mode. You don't want him tearing down Lex for a decision you made.

"Mr. Kent it's not like that I-I wanted him too!" you admit.

"I-I'm eighteen Mr. Kent, I know you care about me, but I'm old enough to make my own choices. Lex didn't force himself on me." This was never how you thought you'd be expressing your feelings. Martha looks at you with understanding. "We just want what's best for you honey." Clark hasn't really said much. You figure he doesn't have a proper response to the information. You feel a bit annoyed at how the evening has turned out.

"I'm going to head home, I need some time to think." Clark has finally tuned back in, but you're already gone. " Clark sighs. He feels stupid for not noticing before.

"Did you really not see it?" Martha questioned.

"I had no idea," he states. Jonathan still looks partially pissed.

"I don't like this. "He's never shy about his dislike for the luthors.

"It's not up to us." Clark realizes. Whether they support it or not, it was your choice, they couldn't intervene.

~~~~~~

It's a challenge to face Lex, but you know you have to. He needs to know that nothing he's done is unwanted. You'd just been dealing with a different situation. So the second you walk through the doors of his mansion , you expect the unease you see on his face. He looks unsure of what to say. You see him stand from his desk, almost like he's been anticipating your visit. "I suppose you were waiting for me." He looks you over, as if scanning for an injury. Clark had filled him in on, and you guess he made his own assumptions, possibly rushing to the worst case scenario.

"Lex.. I really didn't mean to run out on you like that. I feel like I do that a lot around you."

"I'm starting to think it has something to do with me. " He pulls his hands out of his pockets.

"Listen, I realize I must have crossed a line and I want you to know that I won't touch you again. It was wrong of me to do that. "

"You didn't cross a line Lex." you fidget a little. "That kiss did catch me off guard but I..I liked it. I wanted it. You didn't force me into anything."

Hell, he loved it. More than anything. It wasn't just the kiss, but the way you looked at him, kind of like how you were looking at him now. He ran a hand over his head. He was torn. Technically you were legal, but it still felt wrong. You were in high school. A senior, but still.

"My position in this situation isn't that great. I can only imagine what Mr. Kent would think if he finds out."

"Ummm.." Maybe you should have discussed it more with Lex before spilling the beans.

"You told him?"

"I'm sorry, they were freaking out when I ran off and well it kind of slipped." He lets out a little laugh, shaking his head. "Well, his opinion of me wasn't that great to begin with, so I don't think you did much damage. " You step closer, and Lex takes one step back. "(Y/N).." you stop.

"I..I think it would be best if we just remain friends. "

You look at him as if he's crazy. Was he really pulling the friendship card?

"Are you..being serious right now."

"I'm sorry." you gulp. Suddenly you feel foolish, not just for coming over, but making known your feelings for him, only to be rejected. You try not to let it show how it hurts, instead you nod.

"You're probably right. It wouldn't have worked out anyway." That's a low blow, but you feel pathetic. So without much else, you make a turn to leave. You're hoping that he'll stop you and say that he's wrong. That he's just scared and wants to at least try. But he doesn't. He just lets you leave.

Alone.
