Chapter 1: A New Partner
It was yet another warm, sunny spring morning with hardly a cloud in the sky in Smallville. Clark Kent was making use of this day by stacking bails of hay out in the old red Kent barn that his grandpa had built with his own two hands many, many years ago.
Clark really in reality didn't have a reason for stacking the hay, but he figured that it was something else to do to keep his mind off of the other things that have been happening in his life recently, and over the past year. Of course, stacking, or actually re stacking the hay to another part of the barn, was not doing the job of keeping his mind off of the things that he did not want to think about.
Such as one of them doing with Lana Lang. Lana was trying to figure out her life after her marriage with Lex, only finding out that the pregnancy was a fake, then that lead to getting a divorce from Lex, leading up to faking her own death. Then Lana tried to make her and Clark have a relationship, that eventually, did not turn out. In the end, she decided that moving to Paris was just the right thing to do at the time, which ended her and Clarks relationship for good. They did discuss it though, and said it was for the best since they were not completely happy with each other. That there were other people out there for them. They agreed to remain friends, and friends only. Surprisingly, Clark felt like a weight has been lifted off of him. He now understood that even though he has felt like Lana was the one for him about his entire life, that she actually wasn't. That there was someone else out there for him.
Chloe, on the other hand had a new boyfriend, Bart. Which made Bart very happy of course to have Chloe as his girlfriend finally. Chloe and Jimmy still stayed friends, especially after Chloe told Jimmy about her healing ability. Chloe had also told Lois about her power, which Lois told her cousin that she was the same person, only now she had an amazing ability, which made Chloe happy that Lois accepted her as she was. Chloe was still working at the Daily Planet of course, along with her cousin. As the two had eventually moved up from the basement, which in turn made them both very excited and doing almost every story together.
Kara was like any other teenage girl, was lets rephrase that, she was like any superhero teenage girl that wanted to find her place in the world. She always wanted to go out and fly around and save people. Clark understood this, but he wanted to protect her, since she was almost like his little sister and that she had to be careful not to expose herself in front of the wrong people. Kara did not like this, but she obeyed Clark, but at times would fly around and look for people to save or just fly around for the fun of it. She was mostly being watched over by her only blood cousin Clark, and her new found boyfriend, Jimmy Olsen. However, Clark enjoyed to have her around at the farm since his mother was hardly home due to her new senator job. But Clark was happy for his mother that she found something that she loved to do after his dad passed away.
Lois, well Lois had just recently dealt with Oliver coming back from the league, which sent her in a weird mood for a few days. Chloe had told Clark that Lois had never felt that way about anyone, so when he returned, it was pretty awkward between the two, but Clark knew that they might actually mend up and just stay friends. Clark has also discovered a crush he has on Lois after his and Lana's breakup. Maybe sightly even before that. It may of been when he kissed her as the Green Arrow in the ally that night, or maybe, and a big maybe, it had to do with that Valentines Day that he only remembered. He now sees Lois as attractive, and all those qualities that her teases her about, he actually finds them attractive in her. Sighing, Clark can not believe that he never saw it before, but he thinks that Lois will never think the same about him. Especially about his heritage. I mean, he knew that being able to heal someone is totally different than being from a different planet. He wanted to tell her, it was that he just couldn't. He was scared of what she would think of him, and most of all, almost everyone he has shared his secret with has ended up getting hurt over it.
As Clark was stacking hay, Shelby carefully watched him as he laid in the dirt floor of the barn.
"Well thats all of it boy." Clark said stacking the last bail of hay on the stack .
Clark went over a few feet to Shelby and bent down the pet the golden pooch, in which the golden retriever wagged his tail happily and licked his fingers.
"You know what, I think I'm going to pay Chloe a visit." Clark said to as he super sped off to the Daily Planet.
Moments later, Clark entered the Daily Planet, in which Lois and Chloe had been moved up a couple of floors after the new editor took over. Clark looked around the very busy room with people drinking coffee as they typed their articles at a fast pace, employees going in and out of the elevator. People on the phone trying to get tips and interviews done. All Clark knew that it was always a busy place to be. Clark then looked over and saw Lois writing on a notepad by her desk, but Clark also noticed that Chloe wasn't by Lois, where her desk was located.
xxxxx"Hmm...thats weird. Ever since Chloe and Lois got moved up, they are almost always together. Maybe Chloe didn't make it to work today."xxxxx
Clark decided to go over to Lois to find out where Chloe was. Clark made his way through the busy workplace and finally reached Lois' desk.
"Hey Smallville, what brings you here?" Lois asked as she looked up from her paper.
"Let me guess, you want to talk to Chloe?" Lois asked again not giving Clark time to answer even though she already knew the answer.
"Uh ye-" Clark began.
"Sorry to spill the bad beans on you, but Perry gave her an emergency assignment. So she'll be gone for about a week." Lois added as she went back to writing on her notebook
"Oh, well, okay." Clark said as he observed from Lois facial expressions as she continued to write notes and out of the blue scribbles on her yellow notepad, that she was determined to find a juicy story.
"Let me guess, you wanted the story?" Clark asked a he took a seat in Chloe's chair.
"No, Chloe deserves it. She has worked here longer than me. Besides, I have my own story." Lois said with a smile as she looked up from her writing.
"What kind of story is it Lois?" Clark asked knowing that it was probably another dangerous story.
"Gee Clark, don't get to overwhelmed." Lois said sarcastically as she laid her pen and notebook down on her desk.
"Lois." Clark said sternly.
"Okay, I got a tip on some fishy things going on in one on Lex's 33.1 labs." Lois told Clark as she started to gather up all of her notes.
"Lois, that kind of stuff is way to dangerous. You know that." Clark told Lois sternly as he got up after Lois.
"Clark, last time I checked, I can protect my self, and secondly, a reporters job involved being put in danger." Lois said before she continued walking.
"Lois, come on, isn't there another way to write this story?"
"Yeah, maybe you and me should team up and be reporters together, and we can be known as the star reporters of the Daily Planet." Lois said sarcastically in a fake excited tone.
xxxxx"Maybe that isn't such a bad idea. What!? What are you talking about Lane!? Smallville here would be clueless on a story, but then again, I always love, I mean, like having him around. Crap! Snap out of it Lane!"xxxxx
"You know what Lois, thats a great idea." Clark replied knowing that Lois was only kidding, but he loved to get under her skin.
"Clark-"
"Lois-"
Lois thought about it briefly and knew that Clark wasn't going to let this one slide. He was way over protective and stubborn. Sighing, Lois knew that she could only do one thing so that she could actually get the dirt on this story.
Sighing, Lois gave in. "Fine Clark, you can come along." Lois said half annoyed as she rolled her eyes.
"Okay." Clark said smiling.
However, Lois didn't give much time for Clark to get going as she quickly headed her way through the crowded newsroom and to the elevator. Clark was left behind at her desk. Shaking his head, half amused at Lois fast movement to get to her story spot.
xxxxx"Wow, I never realised how cute Lois can be when she is so determined. Stop it Clark, it's Lois for crying out loud! The girl that annoys you for a living! Like she feels the same about you! Yeah right!"xxxxx
"Come on Smallville, if you want to come with me." Lois said as she neared the elevator. "Don't have all day." Lois said quietly to her self.
Clark broke out of his thoughts and quickly headed towards Lois.
"Gee Smallville, come on before the next paper comes out." Lois said as she quickly grabbed Clark by the arm and pulled him into the large elevator.
xxxxx"Wow...if only I was pulling him in here to make out with him. What!? Lane, are you out of your mind! Making out with Clark Kent! The king of plaid! Well, it wouldn't be that bad. I wonder how good of a kisser he is? Snap out of it! He is your best friend for crying out loud! Also, Clark would never want to be with me. What was I thinking?"xxxxx
-Meanwhile-
xxxxx"Wow...Lois pulling me into this elevator reminds me of Valentines day when she pulled me into the phone both. If only if we were going to do what we did on Valentines day. Whoa! What I'm I saying!? Me kissing Lois?! Actually, I wouldn't mind, but Lois on the other hand would freak. She would probably laugh at me for kissing her, or slap me, or knowing her she would do both. Besides, she is my best friend, besides Chloe, and she would never want to be with me. What was I thinking?"xxxxx
During the two of them thinking off in their dream land, the elevator had been moving to their floor, when all of a sudden, the elevator made a ding noise and the doors opened, making Lois and Clark sightly jump, breaking them out of their thoughts
"Come on Smallville." Lois said quickly leaving the elevator and her thoughts behind.
"Right behind you." Clark said as he followed Lois out of the elevator at the same pace.
