For Now…

Whitney couldn't help but glance at their interactions. Lex was as obvious to Clark Kent was to liking his girls. It was understand able to why both these guys liked Lana Lang. She was beautiful and intelligence and he was the lucky guy to have her.
However Whitney knew how much Lana wanted to explore the world. With Clark she will have a lot of mysterious and excitement. With Lex, well he didn't want to know. He was a good guy, but his intentions towards Lana are a bit weird. First of all, he made sure to get his class out of the field trip that his class went to at the Luther's Industries. Or the time that he gave money to Lana to open the store.
It was obvious for now that Lana didn't know which guy she wanted to be with. But he was ok with the fact that she picked him. Safe and unpredictable.
And for now that's what she deserved.
But he couldn't help but wonder which guy she would end up with. That's why he wants Clark Kent to protect his girl for now.
And then one day he'll marry her. But for now, he'll let her dream to see the world. Maybe one day she will.
