Dodecal Challange #34: Clark apologizes to Lex in an usual way. About anything!

____________________

“I’m just glad you’re feeling better.”

Clark peered into the case, shoulders flexing under blue cloth. Lex watched, chuckling at his own fondness.

Several days of sharing him with the kid in the red sweatshirt, over now.
Clark could lie to him, steal from him...he still loved him. Nothing could quench the burn, the ache within, as Clark turned with one of those grins that spread slow and brilliant across his face, and Lex couldn’t help smiling back.

There’s a lot you can’t tell me, he mused. Right now, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that we’re here. Together.

Clark grasped Lex’s arms, turned him around. Warm hands began kneading: shoulders, then neck. Lex’s eyes dropped closed, and he stretched like a cat as Clark bent to press open lips to his skin.

“Much better,” he turned to murmur into Clark’s dark hair.
