Its a brand new day in metropolis, you’re on your way to the office after an awful one night stand with this selfish prick you met on a certain app

Ass sore and still pent up after fucking you and leaving, eyes still puffy after you begged them to help you out too but they just scoffed and slammed the door out.

Now in the elevator, pressing the button to your floor repeatedly to close it and just as the door was about to shut a certain strong man holds the it making it open up again making you sigh in annoyance until you realize who it was

It was Clark, the office heartthrob, who gave you a sheepish smile apologizing for making you wait longer and you respond with a nod scooting a little to the right of him to give his large stature more space

The elevator dings on empty floors and the music continues to annoy you as you keep pressing the close button on the elevator in annoyance

You mumble to yourself in impatience until you hear the larger man clearing his throat making you jump a little in surprise

“Is everything alright?” He asks lowly with some concern trying not to push anything

You snap your head towards him about to snap until you’re met with his pretty face that you keep forgetting he has, losing yourself for a moment before looking back down with some pink starting to dust across your cheeks “It was a long night, I- Its just really uncomfortable today” you reply sounding defeated

“Oh well.. if you have anything you need help with I wouldn't mind, you can come to my booth anytime” he chuckles, motioning his hand to your lower back hesitating as what to do exactly but chooses to caress it softly making your spine tingle at the sudden physical touch

“Tha-Thanks Clark” you reply awkwardly keeping your head down as the situation keeps getting weirder

The elevator dings and the door slides open to your floor, you rush out in an instant leaving Clark alone, his hand levitating at where you were previously which he looks back to a little sad

He walks out slowly, his head shaking in embarrassment whispering to himself “What was that Clark??” recalling the situation back in his head.

The day goes on as usual. You try to avoid Clark's attempts at talking to you more, half because you were too focused at work and didn't want to be distracted and the other half because you don't really know what to say to him back.

You and Clark don't usually interact so him trying to talk to you repeatedly today has just been a lot for you. You overthink of all the embarrassing things you'd do if you start talking to him so you opt to just avoid him entirely.

That is until your working overtime and everyones left the building, you feel worse than how you felt this morning realizing at how much you’ve been trying to avoid the man you’ve also avoided the idea of eating due to the amount of work Perry had given you, and with the last article you had to write and send of to him to check tomorrow you threw all your belonging in your bag and sprinted out not expecting to crash into the chest of a large man whom you didn't know was still there and also rushing out.

You passed out from exhaustion with the last thing you hear is your name being called and a loud thud.

Moments pass and you feel the strong winds graze your face seeing clouds and the stars as if you could touch them, you chuckle to yourself “huh, haha… what a weird dream” as you roll to your side slowly falling off the platform you feel that you're dreaming on.

But in actuality you fell from Clarks arms who was flying up to avoid being seen by people and you suddenly reached out freaking him out not knowing what to do when you suddenly turned and fell from his arms freaking him out and having to catch you.

Luckily he caught you in time and landed at his apartment, you still chuckling to yourself “haha I’m superman” you say in your sleepy state doing the hero pose you see of him flying, still in Clarks arms

“Wow you are a heavy sleeper” Clarks tells himself as he lays you down on his bed.

—-----

The morning sun rolls towards your face making you scrunch your nose burying yourself at the warmth you feel beside you, you move your hands slowly feeling around at you, slowly starting to wake up you find your surroundings unfamiliar

You then start patting around you, your brows furrowed and your eyes still blurry you realize your not in your room, you realize that you don't have a loving partner to wake up to so who the hell is right next to you

In your sleepy dizzy confused state you choose violence in the morning and push off the body next to you pulling at the blanket and shouting

“WHO ARE YOU WHERE AM I AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME!” Holding the blanket close to you like a deer caught in the headlights

It takes a while before you hear a response, until you hear low rumble and mumbling seeing a large man in an oversized white shirt who turned to look at you

“Oh hey~ your finally awake” He says still half asleep “whyd you have to push me off” whiny still rubbing at his side that crashed to the floor

He stretched his arms facing the window where the sun is shining turning his body into a silhouette in contrast to the white shirt he’s wearing sending a blush to your face seeing what his body looks like under all those oversized clothes

“CLARK?? What am I doing here? What happened?? And why am I in different clothes? You spur out different question squinting at him still confused at how you ended up in this situation

“Did you kidnap me?” Staring at him hard one brow raised eyeing him down

“I- wha- What no I did not Kidnap you” he stutters in defense, he sighs “When we clashed last night you fell down and didn't wake up, after checking on you if you were dead or not I brought you home here” opening his arms gesturing to his room

“That doesn't explain my clothes Clark” you emphasized giving him a stern look again

“Well.. you puked on yourself and I didnt wanna leave you in your work clothes…. So I…. May have… changed your clothes for you” The larger man sheepishly says, the last part almost a whisper you could barely hear

Now with answers you feel nothing more than embarrassment, you sigh and cover yourself in Clarks blanket hiding from the man who helped you out so much and you did nothing but be ungrateful

You cradle yourself and under his blankets you suddenly have the bursting feeling of tears pooling at your eyes and you start to sniffle

You try as hard as you can to keep yourself quiet but you fail as the bed starts to shift under the weight of its owner

Clark hesitates as what to do hearing you sob softly under his blankets he wanted nothing more than to hug you and cuddle you right then and there

But before he could pick on what to do he is brought back by you

“Clark, Im sorry, I- I must've been such hassle for you last night and after avoiding you all day I- Im really sorry” you say in hitched breathing still crying from everything that happened to you in the past days

It takes a moment before Clark replies making you think that he left the room as you couldn't hear anything “Clark?” You call out again

“Im here” he replies with such softness while looking at you with sadness, you look to the direction of his voice

Clark using his xray vision to see under the blanket, your face all red and puffy and couldn't help but find you adorable

“It was really nothing, I know we don't talk much around the office but Ive always admired you, how you were always able to cheer everyone up, handle when things got heated around the office, and always make the day just a little easier.

As Clark reveals these feelings he’s had about you you couldn't help but cry harder and blush while you hear these wonderful things said

He hesitates realizing what he just said and that you’re now crying harder “I- Im sorry I shouldn't have said all that, it's way too early I- Ill get us some food you can stay here for a while” he says as he bolts out of the room before you could say anything to stop him but what he didn't hear was your soft chuckles at his goofyness

A while pasts and you’ve finally had yourself under control, you smell the scent of some coffee and bacon being cooked

You finally rise from the bed assessing your surroundings properly, you carry the blanket on your shoulders as you walk towards the smell of fresh cooked breakfast and coffee

You humm pleasantly seeing the large man focused on making the delicious smelling food and unconsciously you walk towards hum and for some reason hugged him from the back surprising him

“Whoa!” He exclaims trying not to spill any of the food

“Warm…. Thank you Clark” you muffly said face pressed on his back

His body seemingly becoming warmer after what you said

“Its really nothing hun, you can go sit on the couch and Ill bring the food” he says receiving a chuckle from you after hearing his sweet petname

“Haha hun…” you repeat making you feel butterflies in your stomach but in a comforting warm way

You sit down on the couch of the man's living room and cover yourself back in the blankets you still had dragging about

With the warmth and oddly comforting feeling of Clark’s apartment you couldn't help but fall asleep again cushioning yourself with the blankets

A few minutes later Clark comes by with plates of food and mugs of coffee

Settles them down before trying to wake you up

It takes a Clark a few shakes before your sitting right next to him making him blush at your closeness

You both sit in the silence of each other as you both eat the food, you compliment Clark on his cooking skills and impeccable coffee and he absent mindedly pats your thigh leaving his hand resting there

You didn't realize it but after a few shows and talking, Clark starts to squeeze at your thigh leaving you a little hot and bothered especially with how his hand almost covers your thigh

You look at the man who's still yapping to you about the show that's playing on the tv and get a little closer to his face to which you then call out his name

“Uhh… Clark” You whisper inching closer to his face

“Yeah?” He replies hastily as he turns his head towards you not realizing how close you were, his eyes staring into yours and stealing glances at your lips, tightening his grip at your thigh as he focuses on your features

“You- your hand…” you whimper unable to finish as Clark's hand got tighter

Escaping his dazed surprised state he releases your thigh making you pout

“I- I am so sorry I didn't realize!” He says shooing his hands away from you

“No… I didnt mind it” now your face only inches away from his

You both stare at each other in silence as the tension between both of you rises the show becoming static to the both of you as only your breathing came into focus, each staring at the others eyes then to their lips and back

It takes a few more glances and swallows until you can't handle it anymore and say “Can I…kiss you?” directly as you stare at his lips
