The Odd Couple 5.4
Too much crap going on. Yawn. But I'm not giving up on my fics!
~~~
Dick dominated the conversation. He was knowledgeable of many subjects, and less innocent in obvious ways than Clark. He kept up with their talk about the Asian markets while adding a few tidbits of his own. Any time the conversation grew comfortable between Lex and Bruce, he tried to draw his guardian’s attention away.
Although why he felt Lex was a threat, he wasn’t sure. Lex knew for a fact Bruce still slept around, and had a stormy relationship with Selena Kyle, so he wondered about the offensive front Dick put up just for him.
Lex slipped in Chloe’s name during the conversation, and Dick spaced out for a time. So, he wasn’t lying about his feeling for her earlier. His new partner might be put out if he had to destroy the younger man for stringing her along. Lex could forgive being confused.
He retired for the evening while Dick spoke privately with Bruce.
Taking a shower, he headed for bed.
The phone rang just as he laid sprawled naked on top of the soft sheets.
“Hey Lex, have a fulfilling day?”
Clark.
“Getting there.”
“Um, okay. I hate my computer, and I think the feeling is mutual.”
“Still having problems with it?” Lex shifted his head onto the pillow.
“It just keeps on eating anything I put into it.”
“I’ll bet.”
So much for a nice, innocent conversation.
“It’s just so big, I don’t know what to do. Then it spews up gibberish, a big mess for me to clean up.
My frame’s taking a pounding!”
Lex’s lower extremities began their climb.
“What are you talking about?”
“The mega virus! It’s a pain in the butt!”
Taking what it could get.
“I’ll have someone come out to fix it tomorrow.”
“It doesn’t cost...”
“Give me a back rub and we’ll call it even.”
“My pleasure.”
At this rate his toes were going to curl.
“I almost had a meltdown when it started to download porn in my Journalism class.”
“You could claim you were just doing research.” He laughed.
“Ha. Ha. And some more ha.”
“More hard core or soft core?”
Nothing going on down there is soft.
“Lex!”
“I can just imagine the blush on your face while you have to explain why you sat on your laptop, breaking it, to hide the incriminating evidence.”
“You watch it or I’ll have to sit on you, too!”
Too many answers to that one.
“You going to break me, too?”
Too honest.
“Maybe. You are the biggest dork in the universe.”
“The dork that has the magic numbers to fix computers. Your computer.”
“Fine. You win. Tease the big farmboy virgin just like everyone else.”
Could I get extra points for making you cry?
“A little bit. It’s just one of my favorite games.”
“No fair.”
“We all have our hobbies.”
“I’m a hobby now?”
“Clark baiting. How red will you turn?”
“Now I really will sit on-oh, just sec, Chloe’s on the line...”
Lex waited for a few minutes, enjoying the delicious ache in his cock, but not stroking once. That was his test for himself. He had to have his control in check.
You are not the boss, I am!
“Chloe just wanted to know if she could have a version of the Sims on your computer.”
Lex had closed his eyes, and now the snapped open with Clark’s words.
“What?”
“Are you going deaf? Chloe wants that new Sims you have. It’s so awesome!”
“It’s a prototype my company was looking into,” Lex congratulated himself on the lie. “You played it?”
“Yeah, it was really weird though. It was like a mini Smallville town and everything.”
“You liked it?”
“Except for the part where Lana had me on the rack and was trying to seduce me.”
“That bitch!” Sim Lana must have gotten tired of Lionel already. Maybe Lex had made her too realistic.
“It’s just a computer game. But here she was a stalker, and had put all these...sex toys everywhere.”
“How skanky of her.”
Lex knew how to take care of his sex toys, his non-present one included.
“I didn’t know you wanted a hot tub in your office.”
“It’s recreational.”
“And I had my Sim Clark visit yours to play pool, but the silly thing was that mine slapped yours whenever it got very close. At least I got them to watch t.v. together.”
Thank God he hadn’t made a Slut Clark.
“How strange.”
“And Lana keeps dying grisly deaths every ten minutes. Meteors, a lion escaped from the zoo, falling off a cliff, the game is creative that way. How many times has she died?”
Don’t knock it. It’s the closest I’ll get.
“I lost count.”
“I believe that like I believe you don’t watch Dexter’s Lab.”
“Believe what you want, virginal man-”
He was interrupted by the turning of a door knob.
The door to Lex’s room opened. Lex didn’t even bother to cover himself up as Bruce had seen all of him before. But it someone else entirely instead.
A beautiful blonde woman smiled when she took in his appearance.
“Lex-”
“Just a minute, Clark.” Lex held the phone loosely to his chest.
“Meow, I am impressed.” The infuriating woman purred.
“Did you want something, Ms. Kyle?”
“Yes.” Selena Kyle didn’t bother to hide her predatory gaze.
“Could you be a little more specific?”
“You-”
“If you want a meeting, it’ll have to wait."
“I have a proposition.”
“Not interested, Ms. Kyle.”
“A threesome. With Bruce.”
Bruce? Does he still want...
“Which, I believe, you are more than up to.” She smirked.
Lex took a deep breath.
"Clark, I have to go. I'll call you in the morning."
But he was already speaking to a dial tone.
