Snow outside my window,
Looks so pretty and gay,
Flakes delicate like crystal,
Always brighten my day.

SNOWFALL


“Guess who’s become the next member of the Kryptonian Control Committee?”

“That’s great, Lex! I know it’s what you’ve always wanted.”

Bruce relaxed in his library desk chair, watching the snow fall outside the windows. A small tree glittered under the painting of his parents, baubles swaying gently in the branches.

“Thanks. Yes, what I’ve worked for all these years is finally mine.”

Bruce smiled at the satisfaction in his old friend’s voice. Lex liked nothing better than winning…unless it was bedding Jamie.

“You’ll be great, Lex. If you can get the Hunt Decree off those poor people…”

“I’m not sure I can do that, but control is better than extermination.”

“I agree with you there.”

“I agree with you that some of these old Decrees have to go.”

Bruce tensed slightly, but Lex was a master at code.

“Good idea.” A rustling of papers sounded in Bruce’s ear. “I’ll see what I can do.”

“That’d be good. Get rid of the clutter.”

Lex laughed. “A good way to put it. How’s the Family?”

Bruce smiled. “They’re just fine. How’s Jamie and Lionel?”

“They’re great. Jamie’s a ray of sunshine, as usual, and Dad’s always Dad.”

Bruce played with his stylus. “Sounds like all is well.”

“It is.” Lex paused, then asked, “When’s Edmund’s trial?”

“Probably after the holidays. Lana’s been pushing, and so have Kathy and Martha.”

“The Three Redheads will get it done.” Bruce laughed. “It’ll almost be a year since he took Clark.”

“The wheels of justice grind slowly.”

“Tell me about it. He’s only going to get a fine, isn’t he?”

“Yes, and possibly a suspended sentence. The laws are lax on slave kidnapping. Lana’s pushing to get them changed, but as Edmund’s already been charged, he’s grandfathered in.”

“A pity. I’d like to see the old bastard get what he deserves.”

“So would I, my friend. So would I.” Bruce sighed. “Well, good luck with the Committee. I know you’ll do a bang-up job.”

“Thanks, Bruce. And good luck with the trial.”

“Thanks, Lex.”

After Bruce hung up, he stared out at the snow. It was a beautiful picture, like something out of a vidcard. He let himself be mesmerized by the steady snowfall, lulled to a drifting state…

“Bruce?”

He looked up to see Clark smiling at him, a question in his eyes.

“Lock the door.”

Clark’s smile widened as he obeyed, returning to the desk as Bruce grasped his hand. He pulled Clark down onto his lap, Clark happily snuggling and wrapping his legs around his Master.

“Cozy,” Clark said with a smirk.

Bruce grinned. “It’s the snow. Gets me in the mood.”

“Lucky for me.”

Bruce laughed and nuzzled Clark’s neck, his lover purring happily. Clark cocked his head back, Bruce nipping and licking his neck. He exposed his throat, Bruce pressing his lips to the pulsing warmth, ripping open Clark’s shirt.

They fumbled with pants and underwear and lube, Clark easing himself onto Bruce’s cock, groaning happily. He pumped up-and-down, Bruce gripping his hips, thrusting up.

With one last grunt, Bruce came, Clark gripping his shoulders as he came seconds later.

“Mmm, baby, that was goood,” Bruce crooned.

Clark laughed as his body relaxed, his arms sliding around Bruce’s neck as he moved his hips. “I can say the same.”

Bruce kissed Clark’s bare chest, midnight-blue eyes sparkling. “I love you.”

“I love you, too.”

“Mmm, delicious.” Bruce glanced over at the fireplace. “We should light that and get on a bearskin rug.”

Clark’s laugh was music to his ears. Clark was so beautiful.

“I’m a very lucky man.” Bruce nipped at his lover’s neck. “You make me so happy.”

“That goes double for me.”

Clark’s sapphire-blue eyes shone with happiness, and Bruce’s heart swelled with love.

As the snow fell outside the Manor, love glowed warm inside.

That was such a lovely and sweet chapter, from the short phone conversation with Lex to Bruce and Clark indulging in their love for each other. Thanks for sharing. :D

I'm not sure I like Lex's fixation on control rather than dissolution of the Kryptonian Decree. I think when he finds out about Clark he's going to have to make some real decisions about his beliefs.

It's too bad nothing concrete can be done about Caldwell; but the sheer humiliation of having been arrested and charged at all will go a long way towards pissing him off no end. They'll need to keep a close watch out, because it would be like him to try it again-kidnap Clark, or Dick, to prove Bruce can't stop him. I don't think he'd kill Bruce outright, because that wouldn't hurt him enough.

Kill Caldwell!

I just started reading this after a hiatus, but everyone is being too legalistic about the Caldwells. Kill them. Challenge them to a duel if you want to be fair, but otherwise treat them like an angry bull and kill them. They are of no benefit to society alive. Rapid dogs are put down in the interest of public safety.

I'm glad Lex is on the committee. He's perfectly positioned to head up change.

Aww I'm glad we got to see Clark and Bruce together. With all the guests they've had around the Manor we haven't seen them alone together much.

Everything is finally starting to come together!
Not a big deal or anything but the italics made it a bit hard to read Bruce and Lex's conversation at time. Really not a big deal, just though I'd mention it.

(also I love the new layout!)

It's a tragedy that Caldwell won't get the justice he deserves. >_< A lesser Bat might drag him out into the streets and beat him within an inch of his life.

However, since there's no Jason to do the dirty work, the wheels of justice will just have to work as they will. :p

And mmm, what a lovely snowy day quickie. ^_~
