bantha_fodderi wrote this on the spot when sloane said she was sad and needed proning stat:
Chloe blows air across the surface of her latte. The steam rises and she glares: wishes it weren't so cold out; wishes her stupid drink wasn't so hot.
She blows again, and takes the final steps to her apartment building.
"Miz Sullivan," greets Max, the doorman. "Lovely evening out."
"Bit chilly," she agrees with a smile, and he closes the door behind her. The foyer is blessedly warm: this middle-upper class lifestyle agrees with her, occasionally.
The ride up in the elevator is brief. It stops on the third floor, and Lex steps in. "Lex," she says. "This is unlike you." She puts her coffee down on the floor.
"Well," he says. "Today I'm visiting old friends."
He reaches out a hand and presses the emergency stop button.
By the time she gets back to her coffee, it's cold.
That's not a surprise.

You should write more Chloe/Lex. So should I.
Hmmm. So should everyone ever.
