Little Distractions with chloeas

Sep 11, 2009 16:52

They hadn't left the Clock tower in a week. Somewhere deep down he knew that wasn't a healthy thing for either of them, but he had no desire to leave her side and Chloe hadn't mentioned wanting to leave. Fortunately for his company, he could do most of his business from his computer at home, and the rest could be done via teleconference ( Read more... )

Just because she hadn't been leaning the clocktower, it didn't mean she wasn't getting work done, Chloe's Planet partner, Richard White had been emailing her things they needed to look at for their next story, she planned on going into work sometime during the weekend, but she didn't want to go in at the usual times, just in case someone was out there waiting for her.

When Oliver sat down next to her, Chloe moved her laptop to the coffee table, she had just finished sending Richard the research she had done during the day and turned to smile at him, "so?"

He held his hand out to her, a soft smile on his face. "Get all the research sent off?" he asked quietly. He knew she'd been working from the tower, as well. He studied her, realizing she looked more relaxed than she had the last couple of evenings. And considering night was rapidly approaching, he took that as a good sign.

Chloe nodded softly, taking his hand in hers and leaning back against the couch as she crossed her legs over it, "yep, all done, tomorrow we'll need to check if we can get people to talk to us." She did feel a lot more relaxed, she had managed to sleep a whole night without nightmares the previous night which had had an opposite effect not only on her but on Ollie and Bart too.

He nodded slightly, shifting a little closer to her on the couch and gently rubbing hit thumb over the back of her hand. "What's the research on?" he asked curiously.

Oliver smiled faintly and then shifted closer, kissing her softly on the lips. "Good," he whispered. Before he had a chance to say anything else, her cell phone began to ring. He smiled at her and pulled away, giving her room to get her phone and talk.

Chloe sighed softly when she looked at the caller ID, smiling slightly and shaking her head, "I swear, it's like she knows." She told him before pressing talk, "Glad to know you're alive," she answered her cousin's phone call.

Lois. He shook his head in amusement and rose to his feet, giving her some privacy so she could talk to her absentee cousin. He wondered idly if Lois did know. He and Chloe had certainly been splashed all over the Inquisitor headlines the last couple of weeks, and he'd heard from A.C. that they'd also had a brief appearance on Access Hollywood.

He grimaced a little. He didn't really want Lois to find out he was in love with her cousin via the media, but if she had, it couldn't really be helped. He sighed softly, moving around the kitchen aimlessly, then leaning back against the counter.

He hoped that she wasn't pissed. An angry Lois Lane wasn't something he wanted to deal with anytime in the immediate future--especially not after what he was referring to, at least in his head, as the week from hell.

A few minutes later, Chloe went to the kitchen a smile on her face when she saw him, her cellphone still in her hand as she walked towards him even though she had already hung up with her cousin, "Lois is coming back."

Her cousin had been in Gotham for most of the summer, 'improving her journalistic skills', although she had been completely vague about the whole thing when Lois usually babbled on about details, so Chloe had been curious to see if she was going to tell her the real reason why she had gone to Gotham City for almost three months.

Oliver wanted nothing more than to wrap his arms around her in return and pull her closer, to deepen the kiss. But he knew the bruises on her back and ribs weren't healed and the last thing he wanted to do was cause her any pain. So instead he slid one hand up and into her hair as they kissed slowly, tenderly.

Chloe knew the reason why he wasn't pulling her closer and although her ribs especially still hurt, she just wanted him to know she was okay and she was there with him and everything was going to be fine. So with her good hand, she took his free hand and placed it on the small of her back as she stepped closer to him, she knew he wasn't going to hurt her if his hand stayed there.

He smiled against her lips, gently skimming his fingers over the small of her back. "Hmm. This might make it difficult for me to go out patrolling," he murmured, kissing the corner of her mouth.

Rubbing her fingers slowly over the back of his neck, she grinned softly and kissed him again then pulled back just slightly, "maybe that's my master plan."

Oliver shuddered involuntarily at the feel of her nails raking down his back. "We're...really not on equal territory here," he murmured against her ear, gently tugging her shirt off over her head.

Chloe shuddered then paused, hesitating before lifting her arms for him, although she had told him about the bruises and where it hurt, she had manage to avoid letting him see her without a shirt on and even though it didn't hurt as much, it still looked really bad.

He grew still as his eyes lingered on her bruised ribs, wincing involuntarily as his mind flashed images and scenarios of how they'd gotten there. Swallowing hard, he met her eyes once more, blinking back tears. Then he slowly kneeled down in front of her, his hands resting lightly on her hips. Wordlessly he pressed feather-light kisses to the bruises, exhaling slowly as one tear made its way down his cheek.

She shivered a little, watching him quietly for a long time then lifting her hands to brush his hair softly, watching him worriedly, "it looks a lot worse than it feels, Ollie." She whispered.

She moved away from him, walking towards the counter, "what time are you planning on leaving?"

"When it gets a little darker outside," he told her, watching her as she moved away from him. "Are you going to miss me?" he teased.

Chloe started making the coffee then smiled, looking at him over her shoulder, glad that he seemed to have let go of the subject, "of course not." She teased back.

He grinned. "Ouch. So I guess that means you won't be waiting up for me?" He arched an eyebrow and leaned back against the counter.
