Beneath the Stars -- Rated G/K

[katleept]

He looks up at the night sky and wonders why he never saw this before. He can blame the city lights for keeping him from seeing how brilliantly the stars sparkle at night up until a few years ago, but he's been more in the country than the city now for three years. He should have seen this before. He should have noticed the beauty of the world all around him before

Very nice starry interlude with our boys! Good insight into Lex. Slowing down his fast pace was certainly warranted. Clark may have super-speed but when it comes to romance, he wants it nice and slow. :)

Lex sighed as he stared at the manila folders and papers haphazardly stacked on his desk. If Superman had not shut down his Canadian factory in the Northwest Territories…he rubbed a hand over his face. He felt a headache coming on.

He heard a tap on the window behind him. He was thirty floors up, so it had to be that damned meddling Kryptonian. He turned around and said, “Okay, Superman, what do you want?” He stopped in shock. “Clark?”

Clark, aka Superman, was hovering outside the panel of plate-glass windows in this Metropolis tower and was sparkling. A nimbus of gold glowed around the spandex-clad hero.

“S.T.A.R. Labs.” Lex set aside the book he had been reading in a chair by the bed. “Their infirmary, in fact.”

“Why?”

The greenish tint had left Clark’s skin. Sunlight was flooding through the windows and over Clark’s body, now clad in a hospital johnny.

“You were poisoned by Kryptonite.” At Clark’s look of fear he quickly added, “The Green variety.”

“How did I get here?”

“I brought you.”

Clark squinted at his bedside companion. “How’d you find me?”

“An apparition hovered outside my office and told me where you were.” Lex said it with the aplomb of a long-ago resident of Smallville, where every day was a candidate for Chloe Sullivan’s Wall of Weird.

“Apparition?”

Lex smiled slightly. “A sparkling version of you.”

Clark looked puzzled but accepted Lex’s explanation. He, after all, had grown up in Smallville.

“So you came running?”

Lex opened his mouth to deny it, but facts were facts. Why had he ‘come running’, as Clark put it? Why hadn’t he just called the
