When Lex and Clark fought, they didn’t do it half-assed. After eighteen years together, they knew all of each other’s buttons and pushed them every time. But Clark had never been gone for so long, no matter how badly they’d fought.

Ten nights had gone past, and number eleven was moments away. Lex sat on the edge of their bed, staring out the open window, the only illumination from the clock on the bedside table. Ice clinked as he raised his glass to his lips.

12:00

The warm wash of scotch did nothing to soothe the cold ache in his chest.

    OUCH!

    that hurt. It was beautiful... but it HURT. ::pitiful eyes - reaching out to hug poor Lex::

    I am once more in awe of your ability to pack so much emotion into so few words... and make them so, SO powerful.

    thank you for sharing.

    Please have them make up! Seriously, when you do angst, you're BRUTAL. You're like the Joss Whedon of Clex fics. And I mean that as a compliment.

    I think Lex and Clark don't do anything half-assed. This was beautifully painful.

    I guess this wasn't the 'make up sex' challenge yet, huh?

    Very poignant.

    *sniffle* Who comes up with these challenges?

    Oh my gosh, this is so beautiful and poignant. Nothing but the numbers on the clock and the sound of the ice in the glass.

    So few words, so much pain... *goes to a corner to weep*

    Lex and Clark really never does anything half-ass. *mopes more*

    I am new to lj, but have lurked your journal for a while once I found it through your website. I hope you don't mind that I friended you, but I just love your stories. Especially the FFL universe. And the Infinite Possibilities. And the Aftermath series. And anything else you have written!

    Your FFL Universe is one of my favorite.
    It's also one of the first fics I read, one of the reasons I kept reading
    SV slash. You are so good !
    I friended you, I hope you won't mind

    Is it wrong that this had me hoping Clark was lying dead somewhere, rather than believe that he just heartlessly left Lex with no word? Whatever the case, the story was very sad, and the use of numbers on the clock was especially melancholy.

    Don't know why I haven't friended you before - I read all your fics over at the SSA, and have been loving your work for some time now.

    *belatedly friends you*
