Summary
“You know what they say,” Clark says, his eyes holding Lex’s mouth, “about your life flashing before your eyes right before you die?”
Clark’s thumb sinks into the inside of Lex’s lip, then skates along his bottom teeth. Fire ignites in Lex’s chest, the pain of restraining himself.
“That didn’t happen. You know what did flash before my eyes?”
Clark removes his thumb from Lex’s mouth and his other hand comes up to cup the other side of Lex’s face.
“Can you guess, Lex?”
His breath is so shallow not even a newborn could drown in it.
“I can give you a hint,” Clark says.
And then he kisses Lex.
Just a graze of his lips, the hint of his tongue, sweet as an overripe berry.
A canon divergent Smallville AU that explores what might have happened to Clark and Lex had Clark told him his secret from the beginning.
(spoiler: they still got issues)

Summary
To save Lois's life, Clark makes a bargain with Lex. Complications ensue. R for sexual situations and Lex being a big jerk; also (mainly offscreen) violence. If you think things like mating bonds pose issues of consent, then there are definitely issues of consent here, though not exactly mating bonds. Well, Lex in himself is a walking issue of consent, isn't he?
I should probably mention that I'm ignoring much of anything past S5.

Summary
This doesn’t change anything. They’re not really married. Even if they are in the bodies of two people who are. It’s not them. It will never be them.
And Clark isn’t about to forget everything that’s happened just because the version of Lex from this entirely different universe may have been someone Clark could love.
Someone Clark could have saved.
