Accidentally in Love

Chapter 14: A Clollie Valentine's

After hanging up with Chloe, Oliver went back to check on Clark. Seeing the brunette still sound asleep, Oliver smiled and headed to the living room.

Suddenly remembering that neither of them had eaten lunch, Oliver made his way to the kitchen. He was a good cook, if he said so himself, and he knew the brunette would be hungry when he woke up.

His specialty was Italian food and he was able to have a pasta cooking fairly quickly. Finding some bread and tomatoes, he managed to make bruschetta too. All in all, he was quite pleased with himself at the result.

Putting the food into serving dishes, he went back once more to see Clark. Sitting at the edge of the bed, he hated waking up the brunette but he really wanted him to eat something.

Stroking the soft locks, Oliver planted a soft kiss on his forehead.

Hearing Clark moan and stir, he moved back. The brunette opened his eyes slowly, blinking a few times and seeing Ollie, smiled.

“Hey,” he said sleepily. “What’s up?”

“I hated to wake you up,” Oliver stated, “But I thought you should eat something. Then you can go back to sleep.”

Clark opened his mouth to say something but then his stomach grumbled, speaking for him, eliciting a chuckle from Oliver.

Blushing, Clark nodded. “Yeah, I think food sounds good.”

“You can rest,” Oliver stated, “I’ll bring the food here.”

Clark shook his head and moved to get up. “No, I’m fine. I’ll come with you.” Seeing Oliver’s skeptical expression, he sighed. “Don’t worry, Ollie, I’m really okay. I swear.”

“If you say so.” Oliver said doubtfully. Helping Clark out of bed, he led the younger man to the dining room.

“Sit here,” he instructed. “I’ll bring the food.”

“Can I help?” Clark offered and Oliver just smiled.

“I’m good, thanks.” Oliver said.

Setting the table, he brought the food from the kitchen. He had to make a few rounds but he didn’t want Clark moving too much. Oliver knew he was overreacting but at the moment, he didn’t care.

He waited until Clark started and then began to eat himself.

“This is really good.” Clark complimented, after taking a bite.

“Thanks,” Oliver replied. “I’ve always been fascinated with cooking, for some odd reason. At my home in Star City, I do have a chef but I’m traveling so much that I wanted to learn.”

“You’re very good at it.” Clark told him and Oliver just smiled.

Oliver remembered something. “Oh, I talked to Chloe.” He said suddenly.

Clark groaned. “I completely forgot to call her, was she worried?”

“Yeah, she called,” Oliver responded. “And she was worried but I explained everything. We both agree you should spend the night here.”
