Just... *purr*.

Have a quote:

"Really, all things considered, I've been a fucking amazing friend
to you.  You don't know how lucky you are."

Clark had mulled this over.  "I've saved your life twenty-seven
times."

"You keep count?"

"Well, yeah."  Clark had rolled his eyes.

"I've kept the biggest secret on earth for five years."

"I've never looked at you like you were a freak."

"I've never done that to you, either."

"Well, I never shot at you with an Uzi, then."

"That was below the belt," Lex had said, frowning.

"Sorry."

"And you have knocked me unconscious a few times."

"Hey, I apologized for those.  Like, a lot."  Clark had paused.  "Um.
I defended you to everybody."

"I gave you kick-ass presents."

"I never slept with your dad.  Or died on you."

"I was always a complete gentleman," Lex had said.  He'd made a
noise that was possibly a snicker.

"I..." Clark had trailed off thoughtfully.  "I always know the
difference between your 'angry, so stay the hell away' mood and your
'angry, so come over and be cute' mood."

"Nope."

"What are you talking about?  I totally do, too."

"Actually, Clark, you really don't."

"Fine.  I've never complained about any of the really boring plays
and museums you drag me to."

"I've supplied you with a glorious sexual education, the like of
which most men will only dream about."

Clark had laughed and rolled over on the bed to brace himself over
Lex.  "I'm still here."

Lex had looked amused.  "I let you in."
