Fics like leave me empty, leave me whole

Lex refuses to acknowledge the stinging in his eyes, to show that level of weakness. How affected he is by the realization that Clark doesn't know him. He wrestles with the hollow ache threatening to swallow him whole until it submits, forcing it into the ancient lead box in his mind and locking it tight. He sends the stranger wearing Clark's face a lopsided smile. "I'm a friend." Clark blinks once. "You can take me to the sign?" Lex turns away again, not trusting his expression as he says, "What are friends for?" --- What if Lex found Clark in 4x01 instead of Lois? also affectionately known as: Crusade (Lex's Version) Written for Smallville Clex Week 2026 Day 5: Rescue
