This is a 240 word Smallville drabble for the Numbers Challenge at
1_million_words Enjoy! A/N: In my Smallville universe, Chloe and Lex are happily married and in love-Lex is still a somewhat gray character but he is not full on evil. After all, he adores ice dancing!
Lex Luthor was normally a calm and patient man but watching his wife Chloe running around their kitchen baking pies of assorted flavors since the crack of dawn was driving him to drink.
And he swore she was psychic because Chloe decided to throw him a sunny smile just at the exact moment he was contemplating calling Lois for reinforcements.
He wondered around the kitchen island and counted five mac and cheese with bacon pies, six Frito chili cheese pies and four shepherd pies.
He cleared his throat pointedly to get his wife’s attention again and when Chloe glanced up he gestured grandly to all of the pies. “Not that I don’t adore your cooking--no make that baking--such interesting pies, can I ask what inspired your four hundred and twenty four minutes of baking?”
Chloe shook her head in amusement. “I’ve been baking for the past seven hours and four minutes”—Chloe paused to give her husband her own significant look—“because we’re having the Super friends over for our first official Nationals Figure Skating party.”
He blinked in surprise. “Nationals are today?”
His wife started laughing at his confusion. “The skating events are being shown all weekend, but we decided to have the party today so we can watch all of the events I dvr’d.”
Lex looked at all of the food in anticipation. “Alright, let’s break out the nachos and start watching some ice dancing!”

Date: 2017-02-07 06:05 pm (UTC)Sometimes I miss Chlex a very lot. Lately, I've been rewatching my 'Lois & Clark' Season 1 boxset, and weirdly it just makes me want Chlex... Not Smallville, just Chlex. Weird, right?
