Chapter 13

Oliver wasn't saying anything so Clark decided he had to be the one to start the dialogue. "Oliver?"

Currently, Oliver was just staring at the ring. "What does it mean?" He spoke and Clark had no idea what he meant.

"What does what mean?" Clark asked.

Oliver held up the ring and pointed to the engraving. "What does this mean?"

"The symbols are Kryptonian," Clark told him, feeling disappointed. "That's was the language spoken on my planet." He took a deep breath. "It means 'one true love'." He refused to meet Oliver's gaze, afraid of what he would see there.

Only the choked sob caused him to look up. Oliver had fallen to his knees and had his head in his hands. Worried, Clark made his way to his side.

"Ollie?" he asked, "Are you okay?" Oliver didn't say anything, just shifted and buried his head into Clark's shoulder.

As if on instinct, Clark wrapped his arms around the other man, holding him close as he cried. Unsure of what else to do, he just stroked his back.

Sniffing slightly, Oliver pulled away, looking downcast. Clark gently wiped away his tears and lifted his chin to meet his gaze.

"Hey, don't cry," Clark whispered, "I'm sorry I upset you. If you don't want the ring . . ." Oliver shook his head furiously, cutting him off.

"Why do you do this to me Clark?" Oliver asked, his voice hoarse. "No one has ever made me feel like this before."

"I'm . . . sorry?" Clark didn't know what else to say.

Oliver laughed. "Don't be. You're so amazing . . . . caring, handsome . . . how could you think I could find anyone better? How could I think that I would be able to find anyone better?"

"Oliver, what are you saying?" Clark asked, trying not to get his hopes up too soon.

Oliver's eyes met his and Clark was thrilled when he saw the love that was there. "I'm saying that I don't want you to go, I want you to stay. And if you never spoke to me again or if I never saw you, I would go mad. I'm saying that I can't live without you and the last thing I want is for this marriage to be over. Till death do us part, Clark . . . if that's what you want too."

Clark thought he was dreaming because Oliver was saying everything he ever wanted to hear. He still wanted him! And he still loved him. Clark felt as his heart was going to burst out of his chest.

"Of course that's what I want," Clark said. "That's the only thing I want." Eyes shimmering with tears, Oliver leaned up and pressed his lips on Clark's, sealing the deal in Clark's favorite way.

Elation, euphoria … they were just two of the words Clark could think of to describe the moment he was experiencing. Standing among family and friends, he and Oliver had once again been married. A slow grin appeared on Oliver's face as he held up a piece of cake to Clark's lips, his eyebrows quirking with mirth.

"You want nothing more than to shove that in my face don't you?" Clark teased. Oliver chuckled, shaking his head.

"You know me too well, Mr. Kent-Queen, now open your damn mouth," he said playfully. Smiling, Clark opened his mouth as Oliver slid the first piece of their wedding cake into his mouth causing the group to cheer happily. Leaning forward, Oliver's lips captured his, the blonde's tongue darting out to remove the left over icing. Clark pulled back with a teasing smile, reaching out for Oliver's "slice" of cake.

"Oh don't think I haven't forgotten the need to reciprocate there gorgeous," Clark teased and Oliver rolled his eyes. Seeing the look in Clark's eyes, Oliver's gaze became suspicious.

"Are you planning on smashing that into my face?" he asked and Clark smiled.

"Not a chance," he said softly and raised the cake to Ollie's mouth, feeding him the tasty concoction of vanilla crème and chocolate mousse. Ollie groaned as he tasted the cake and Clark chuckled, leaning forward to capture the blonde's lips.

Stepping back, the duo looked on as the most important people in their lives clapped and cheered. While it hadn't been easy for many of the people in their lives to find out, it was a revelation and now a reality that was as easily accepted as anyone could have imagined. Lois had been shocked beyond belief that he was married to Oliver and he had a lot of explaining to do, no to mention begging and pleading, before she accepted it.

Chloe, his rock through all the good times and the bad, had been on board since the beginning and had dragged Jimmy around, doing errands for him to plan the lavish reception held in his and Oliver's honor. Jimmy had been shocked by his sexuality but he had to give credit to the other man for his quick acceptance.

Oliver smiled, taking Clark's hand as he led him out onto the balcony overlooking a moonlit garden.

"Can you believe it?" Oliver asked. Clark turned pulling the blonde into his arms.

"Believe what?"

"All of this Clark … you and me … this … us? For a minute there I thought we'd lost all of it," Oliver told him softly. Clark let his hand slide through Ollie's hair with a smile. It was true … their romance had started out so quickly … escalading to heartbreak before either had a chance to breathe, but now they stood together, side-by-side, ready to start their lives together and Clark could only smile.

"You're right," Clark said kissing his husband softly before smiling, "For a minute there, we almost did."

THE END!!

Short Author's Note. Where did the title come from? This song. A friend recommended it to me (who also happens to be my beta) and I thought it fit Clark/Oliver perfectly:D

Song: Chemicals React

Artists: Aly & AJ

You make me feel out of my element
Like I'm walkin' on broken glass
Like my worlds spinnin' in slow motion
And you're movin' too fast

Chorus
Were you right, was I wrong
Were you weak, was I strong, yeah
Both of us broken
Caught in a moment
We lived and we loved
And we hurt and we jumped, yeah
But the planets all aligned
When you looked into my eyes
And just like that
The chemicals react
The chemicals react

You make me feel out of my element
Like I'm drifting out to the sea
Like the tides pullin' me in deeper
Makin' it harder to breathe

We cannot deny, how we feel inside
We cannot deny

Chorus
Were you right, was I wrong
Were you weak, was I strong, yeah
Both of us broken
Caught in a moment
We lived and we loved
And we hurt and we jumped, yeah
But the planets all aligned
When you looked into my eyes
And just like that
The chemicals react
The chemicals react

Kaleidoscope of colors
Turning hopes on fire, sun is burning
Shining down on both of us
Don't let us lose it (don't let us lose it...)

Chorus
Were you right, was I wrong
Were you weak, was I strong, yeah
Both of us broken
Caught in a moment
We lived and we loved
And we hurt and we jumped, yeah

We lived
We loved
We hurt
we jumped
We're right
We're wrong
We're weak
We're strong
We lived to love

But the planets all aligned
When you looked into my eyes
And just like that
Watch the chemicals react
And just like that
The chemicals react
(The chemicals react)
