Sitting on the sofa in the corner, Clark, who was holding a glass of wine, stiffened silently. Although he had worked hard to restrain his abilities, Lex easily attracted his attention like a huge luminous body, so , inevitably, he overheard Lex talking to Tony Stark.
Boyfriend... the word kept echoing in Clark's ears, and he tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth. This was the time when he learned that Lex's affection for him was clearer and clearer, and it made him even more at a loss.
Saying goodbye to Tony with a sarcastic face, Lex approached step by step under Clark's gaze.
The feeling of inexplicable danger made Clark have the urge to retreat, but he was sitting on the sofa, and there was a wall behind him, so Clark could only freeze on the sofa, staring at Lex, nervously almost controlling I can't help my hot gaze.
Sensing Clark's nervousness, Lex deliberately walked in front of the other party before stopping. He had to say that Clark's performance made him very happy. He hid the smile in his eyes, leaned down and whispered in Clark's ear: "Follow me!" I am going out."
Clark jerked back, avoiding the shuddering heat of his breath.
Seeing Clark dodge, Lex didn't care, he straightened up and walked out first.
Outside the hall where the party was held was a secluded garden, Lex waited under the tree for a while, and then saw Clark silently following.
Lex didn't speak, but casually looked at the little reporter's body covered by the rigid suit.
Perhaps it was because the environment here was too deep and dark, Clark felt that the atmosphere was extraordinarily dignified, he couldn't help but breathe lightly, and Lex's sizing up made him wonder if he was already naked.
The silence lasted for a long time, and Clark finally realized belatedly that Lex seemed to be angry, and there was no usual gentle smile in his eyes when he looked at him, his lips were tightly pursed, and his expression was calm but revealed a trace of coldness.
Why is Lex angry, and, is he angry at him, because the repulsion and avoidance he showed hurt Lex?But he didn't want to reject Lex, he just wasn't used to it...
"Clark, I'm jealous." Lex's words broke the silence around him.
"What?" Clark, who was hesitating whether to apologize, couldn't believe his ears. Just now, Lex was saying, jealous?Who is worthy of the jealousy of the proud son of the metropolis?
"Five days ago, I saw you playing with a woman in the square near the Rex Building."
There was no ups and downs in Lex's voice, but Clark felt a sudden chill, and he quickly looked through his memory.
Five days ago, in the square?Clark remembered that he had delayed the interview that day because he was going to help others, and then he was taken by Ms. Lane to a deserted place in the square to lecture.
"Clark, I'm jealous." Lex took a few steps forward, stood in front of Clark, and said seriously.
As soon as Clark, who had just finished recalling, came back to his senses, he heard Lex's suspected confession, and his brain almost went blank. He explained indiscriminately: "We are just colleagues, me, I delayed the interview, and Ms. Lane was very angry."
"That's it,... don't let others get close to you from now on, okay?" Lex poked Clark's cheek with his hand and said softly.
The jade-like fingers are a little cold, and the feeling of touching the skin makes people nostalgic. The feeling of electric shock spreads from the place of contact to the whole body, completely disturbing Clark's thoughts. Obviously, no amount of electric current can hurt him, but Lake His fingers gave him the illusion of burning pain.
"Okay." In a trance, Clark heard himself say this.
Clark felt his heart pounding with joy as he finally realized that he liked Lex a lot more than he thought.
But does Lex really like him?Clark looked into Lex's eyes, reflected in them, a boring man from the farm, an obscure reporter, harmless and humble, that was him, but not all of him.
If Lex knew the power he possessed, would he approach him so relaxedly?Will those gentle smiles turn into fear?
If Lex knew he was an alien, would he still trust him so much?Will those likes turn into loathes?
The super memory made Clark always clearly remember that Lex looked at Superman with such indifference and defense.
Clark's heart was eroded by the chill a little bit. He originally planned to tell Lex all his secrets when there was more trust between them.However, after discovering his own heart, he dared not take risks, because he was afraid of losing, so he was even more afraid.
He didn't want to see Lex showing disgust at him...
"Clark?" Lex withdrew his fingers, and he found that Clark's face had turned pale. He just poked his face, so it wouldn't be so unbearable. Moreover, it didn't look like he hated his touch, but rather ……Fear.
What is he afraid of?Lex was puzzled.
"I'm sorry, I have something else to do, I'm leaving first." Clark turned his head to avoid Lex's sight, then turned and left.
Lex looked at Clark's back and frowned.
"Your little reporter escaped?" Tony's voice was obviously gloating. It was rare to see Lex deflated. I have to say that Clark Kent did a good job.
"It's okay, he is mine after all." Lex said quietly.
Tony: "..." Silently lighting the little reporter's wax.
After Clark's figure completely disappeared, Lex looked away and looked at Tony. Before that, he noticed a strange light on Tony's chest. He patted the bright place curiously, and asked, "What is this?"
"Ark reactor, this is a new energy source that can change the world, and it is also the guarantee of my life." Tony said proudly, the Ark reactor is definitely one of his greatest inventions.
"The shrapnel in your heart hasn't been taken out yet?" Lex frowned.
"I don't want to risk my life." Tony spread his hands, then patted his chest and said, "Besides, this is the symbol of Iron Man."
"There are no side effects of this thing, right?" Lex didn't agree with Tony's behavior of installing the mechanism on his body, but no one in his hospital could remove the shrapnel under the premise of ensuring Tony's absolute safety, so he had to let it go.
"No, even if there is, I will solve it." Tony said confidently.
After the birthday party, Tony donned his steel suit and flew back to New York, Lex ignoring the show, which he could have easily done if he wanted to.
The manor has been repaired under Macy's efforts, and Lex looks at his home, maybe he can invite Clark to his home.
The next day, Lex looked at the hung up phone, and Clark said he was busy with the draft, and then declined his invitation.
Clark was avoiding him, it was obvious, so what was he afraid of?
Lex closed his eyes, everything about being with Clark flashed across his mind, his cautious movements, he said he had destroyed many things, Martha's inexplicable guard...
Could it be... Clark is a mutant?
It seems possible that if Clark is a mutant, it all makes sense.For example, if Clark is a power-type mutant, he may destroy things because he cannot control his abilities, so he will naturally be more careful.And because ordinary humans reject mutants, Martha is worried that he will be harmed.
No, maybe not mutants, Lex thought of those mutant humans in his database for various reasons, maybe there is something special about Clark's body.
So, should he take the little reporter off-naked for a check...
Ahem, Lex coughed lightly, trying to regain his wandering thoughts. This possibility is too small to be considered for the time being.
Clark is afraid of being discovered?
Is it afraid of being hurt by him?Or are you afraid of being rejected and alienated by him?
Lex remembered the "yes" Clark had said that night when he had asked.
Perhaps, Clark was moved.
Thinking of this, Lex couldn't wait to see Clark, he wanted to confirm whether his thoughts were correct.
Sensing his excitement, Lex was taken aback.
If Clark really has special abilities, then obviously, Clark is dangerous to him, why his first reaction is not to eliminate the danger, but to get closer?
This reaction represents danger in itself.
He has always valued his own life the most, otherwise he would not have always carried a protective shield and various self-defense gadgets with him.
Is it because he really likes Clark that he trusts him so much?
His feeling for Clark has always been that he wants to bully and possess, and Clark is the only person who makes him have this special interest, so he doesn't mind getting close to him in the name of pursuit.
Lex wasn't sure how long this relationship would last, but what he knew for sure was that he would never let Clark belong to someone else.
……
In the office of Planet Daily, although the work has been completed, Clark still doesn't want to let himself relax, he is absent-mindedly sorting out the materials at hand.
Since rejecting Lex's invitation, his thoughts have been confused, and even the daily activities of helping others are a little bit unmotivated.
Is Lex mad?Did he hurt Lex?He regretted it a bit, he shouldn't have rejected Lex, but if he didn't refuse, what could he do, letting himself go would only make him more painful.
Before he found out that he liked Lex, he regarded Lex as a normal friend, only occasionally thinking about it.But now, the name almost filled his brain, and the feeling of liking deepened every second.
He wanted to see him, hear his voice, and he had to work hard not to search for Lex.
"Clark, the chairman wants to see you." The president of Planet Daily walked to Clark's desk and looked at the new reporter curiously.
It has been a while since Planet Daily changed ownership. Today is the first time the new chairman has come to the newspaper office. The first person the other party met was not him as the newspaper president, but Clark, a young reporter who has just joined the job.
Clarke is indeed a potential rookie, but that's just potential.Why did the chairman who spent a lot of money to buy Planet Daily pay so much attention to it, and even asked him to do something as simple as spreading the word.
"Chairman?" Clark looked at the president, also inexplicable.However, he quickly followed the president to the chairman's office.
After bringing Clark here, the president consciously left.
Clark has no sense of awe for the new owner of the Daily Planet. In other words, no one on this planet can make him feel in awe, not only because of his strength, but also because he has a strong heart.
This wanderer from Krypton is strong yet humble, lonely but confident.
Clark believes that he can face everything calmly. Except for Martha and... Lex, it is difficult for others to praise or criticize him to really affect his heart.
Thinking of Lex, Clark couldn't help feeling bitter. Perhaps, he should be more proactive, at least, he should try harder to make Lex change his impression of Superman.
He has been working hard to help others, and he has received praise from countless people, but Lex has never been among them.
What should he do to get Superman to get Lex's approval?
Clark collected his thoughts and retracted his scattered thoughts. He pushed open the door of the confinement room, wondering what the chairman wanted from him.
Even without using super hearing, Clark's hearing is much sharper than that of ordinary people, so when he opened the door, he recognized the sound of breathing in the room.
It's Lex.
Clark looked at Lex who was sitting on the sofa, but he hadn't seen him for two days, but he felt as if they had parted for a long time.
Seeing Lex again, what Clark felt was excitement, apprehension, and more joy.
"Lex." Clark whispered the name that haunted him day and night.
Boyfriend... the word kept echoing in Clark's ears, and he tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth. This was the time when he learned that Lex's affection for him was clearer and clearer, and it made him even more at a loss.
Saying goodbye to Tony with a sarcastic face, Lex approached step by step under Clark's gaze.
