Great story! I hope Chloe does wait for him and give him a chance to say what he really meant to say that summer. :-)))

[lillianschild]

Well, she´s travelled back in time so maybe with the right incentive, he´ll get him to say those words in the past or he´ll give her a clear sign and save her and himself a lot of heartache in the future- that is the present time.:)

thanks for reading and reviewing, Jen.

Ohhh! I absolutely love it, hon! This makes for a wonderful AU, with them waiting to be happy, and avoiding so much hurt! Bless their hearts!

Thanks for reading and reviewing, Ash. It was a nice surprise, considering it isn´t slash.

Both Chloe and Lex have always had so much bad luck in their love lives that I just want them to be happy and, better still, happy together. When I saw that balcony scene and that book, the first one that came to mind was Lex and not Clark. It was just waiting to be written.

I´ve posted some other very short one-shots which are Chlex with the scales tipping towards Lex. You´re welcome to read them anytime. There´s a Season 8 inspired trilogy (my personal attempt to reintroduce Lex in a worthy fashion):

I liked this. So did Lex really send her the book on her B-day in Hex? Was he dead in this? hmmmmmmm I like how ended it. So intriguing!!!!!

[lillianschild]

Thanks for reading and reviewing. :)

Lex is definitely alive and kicking in the present just as he is on the show- I never bought the idea of his dying either in the Arctic or in the van.In my world, as in this fic, he did send her the book as a birthday gift- maybe not in person but through an emissary.

Hopefully, Chloe´ll be able to change the present for the better thanks to Zatanna.In any case, I believe a trip to the past such as this one would have been more productive than trading places with Lois in the present, don´t you think?

[chlavis333]

Ah yep! Totally!!!

[vodooman]

omg! how could I have not read this until now??? ahhhhh *fangirl-squee*
this is really great! and omg! it has such an opened ending... (which isnt really opened... because I already know that she'll be together with him... yeay!!!)

giggles... sorry!

anyway... love the way you wrote it! and I even think the conversation is sooo nice between chloe and lex.
but just a very silly question... does ollie know what the dedication inside said? did he read it?

[lillianschild]

I´m glad you discovered it(Do you see what happens when you neglect NS for LJ? *cocks an eyebrow*). This one-shot was written for the second challenge organised by the forums- I penned "A Modern Persephone" for the third, which helped me won a second time in a row.

The dedication was private and the gift was wrapped so... in my world Oliver didn´t read it and Chloe kept it "hidden".

By the way, have you considered writing something for this month´s challenge? The topic´s "Who´s my Daddy?" and you have time till Oct 26th to send skauble your entry.

*blush* sorry...
I am trying to keep myself update on LJ... really... but I have really loads going on in RL. I always tell myself I'll read this or that fanfic later... and then I forget... so, I am really happy for finding this one...

actually... I am kind of trying to not write something for SV a little... I am trying to distance myself from the fandom...

I had one too many rows with a very strange fan-girl... she kind of wa.s... harsh??

anyway... so, it pissed me totally off... and I decided to not write SV for a while... Not that I will never write it again... I might start with the next season start or something... I just really dont feel like writing any SV fic at the moment... (even if I have looooaaaads of ideas for SV fics already...)

i am hoping it'll help me write other fandoms... I really need to get into writing for other fandoms... I think my mind is kind of a single-trak road... and I need to find other roads too....

did that make any sense to you? giggles...

Of course I was joking about your not coming to NS on a regular basis because I remember a couple of days ago you told me you prefer LJ. I tend to do the opposite since, as I told you in my answer to that comment of yours, NS is virtually the only place where people read an review Chlex. LJ is very- sometimes too quiet- when it comes to feedback on this ship or on ships with hetLex.And I DO want people not just to read but to SAY something. Silence is very depressing when it comes to sharing something you´ve spent a lot of time and love on.
