Wow, just wow. This is incredible. I totally found myself angry with Whit in the beginning thinking Lex was going to teach him a lesson and I didn't feel guilty for cheering Lex on. Then, I totally feel for Whit. See the destruction surrounding him, waiting for it to cave in. I also felt bad that he was hating himself for being resentful of Clark for what he could share with Lex and for what Whit couldn't. The self hate he was feeling for wanting this type of sexual relationship with Lex to continue. At the end of this chapter I just felt a little hollow. Whit is almost tauting Lex with how he has adapted, although still twisted, and Lex can never really share anything with Clark that won't be tainted with this 'thing' that Whit and Lex share.
Also, CLark's obvious heartbreak over Lex befriending Whitney will only turn out badly for Whit in the end. I think he seems aware of it but can't help reveling in the small victories now.

Beautiful, this is painfully beautiful!
