A.N: Here it is... the sequel to I Can't Make You Love Me. I now have a beta. Shaera. She's amazing. So updates will strictly be on Fridays from now on. :) Enjoy!
Chapter 1
Clark smiled as he walked into the Daily Planet toward his desk. Knowing Lois was returning in a few hours did that to him. Chloe was supposed to pick her up at the airport around lunch time and drop her off at the Planet. He'd been planning to take her to the café close to work for lunch. His smile faltered when he noticed the bustle in bull pen.
"What's going on", he asked Jeff who was running around with piles of papers.
"Didn't you hear", Jeff asked, "The Blur blotched a save today… he's been scorching buildings, billboards, some guy's car… The DA is having a press conference later today."
Clark watched him walk off in confusion.
He turned and super sped out of the bullpen toward Watchtower.
***
Chloe was sitting at her desk typing when he coffee cup spilled over. She groaned and picked it up then quickly moved aside the papers that had been scattered.
"Clark", she rolled her eyes standing up to get paper towels, "Do I have to have Oliver hire a maid for every time you decide to blur in here?"
"Sorry", he muttered, "I need your help."
"On the renegade Blur I presume", she said smirking, "Already on it."
She walked back to the desk and bent forward to clean up the spilled coffee.
"I got to work today and everyone was talking about the symbol being scorched all over the place", he said crossing his arms, "And a few saves that didn't go very well…"
"I saw the news", she nodded, turned around and threw the used paper towel in the trash. "I knew it wasn't you."
"The phantom?", he asked.
"Not unless there's two of him", Chloe said. She sat in front of her laptop and began hitting a few keys on the keyboard pulling up two videos at the same time, "These two videos aired at the same time."
"So?"
"From opposite sides of town" She replied, she rolled her eyes and continued, "Clark, you're fast, but even you can't be in two places at once."
"So there's two imposters", he nodded.
"I don't think it's like that", she said slowly, biting the corner of her lip in thought
"What else is it, Chloe", he asked.
"I think they're trying to help", she said.
"How is this helping", he asked pointing to the computer screen showing a car accident from that morning.
"True", she nodded and sighed, "You've got to find them…"
He nodded and turned to leave.
"By the way", Chloe smiled clasping her hands together, "I'm picking up Lois around 11:00… she caught an earlier flight. You still want me to bring her by the Planet?"
Clark smiled and blushed.
"Yeah", he cleared his throat, "I'm taking her to lunch."
"Okay", Chloe smiled, "I'll see you later then."
He smiled and super sped away leaving Chloe behind shaking her head.
***
Oliver sat at his desk looking over the paper work for LuthorCorp's new solar towers that were going up within the year.
"Oliver."
He looked up and smiled.
"Clark", he grinned, "To what do I owe the pleasure?"
"Have you seen the news?"
"I have", he nodded standing and walking toward his bar, "Who are they?"
"Not sure yet", Clark said declining a drink Oliver was offering, "That's why I'm here. I need your help."
"What about Watchtower", Oliver asked, "What has she found?"
"Not much", Clark shook his head, "She's going to be busy later though…"
Oliver leaned his head to the side. "Oh?"
"Picking up Lois", Clark filled in.
"Right", Oliver grinned, "Lois is coming back today."
"Yeah", Clark nodded.
Oliver smiled.
"Alright", he said, "I'm not all techie savvy but I'm still a costumed vigilante… I'll look into it. See what I find out."
"You should get Bart to help", Clark said, "You can't be in two places at once."
"I'll be fine", Oliver nodded, "Bart's on a mission in Star City."
"What mission?"
"He's helping me train someone."
"New, potential member?"
"Something like that", Oliver smiled.
Clark nodded.
"Okay then", he said, "I need to get back before Tess Mercer realizes I'm gone."
"Clark", Oliver called out, "Be careful with Tess."
"You know something I don't Oliver?"
"Not yet", he said, "I was looking over these plans for the solar towers for LuthorCorp and I don't know. I'm taking them to Chloe to look over them…"
"Tess says it's going to help Metropolis", Clark said.
"And I really do think she truly believes that", Oliver nodded, "Just this technology… it's not human."
"You think its alien", Clark said.
"Like I said, I'm taking it to Chloe later", Oliver nodded.
Clark looked him and nodded before speeding away.
***
"This Kandorian crop circle wasn't done by the Blur", Stuart was saying.
Tess looked at him and smiled.
"Then by who", she asked, "Jor-El?"
"Doubtful", he said, "Check this out. These are all symbols left by the Blur the last few months… these are the ones left this morning. Notice anything different?"
"The scorch marks", Tess smiled.
"Exactly", Stuart said, "The ones this morning were done with arson… the others… weren't."
Tess smiled.
"Find them", she said, "I want to meet these two imposters."
"Sure thing, I'm on it."
Stuart walked down the hallway and touched his earwig when he was out of earshot, "I'm clear, I'll be there soon."
***
Lois stood outside the terminal and smiled when she noticed Chloe's car pulling up to the curb.
"Hey cuz", she grinned hugging Chloe tightly, "Missed you."
"I missed you too, Lois", Chloe said hugging her back.
She pulled herself out of the hug and bent to help her cousin with her bags. They walked around to the open trunk and shoved the luggage inside.
"So, how's Uncle Sam", Chloe asked smiling.
"Grumpy as always", Lois shrugged, "But it was nice seeing Lucy stateside."
"Lucy was there", Chloe asked.
"Yeah", Lois smiled, "She's getting her life back on track. Starting school in the winter and is working for the general up in Washington… that sort of thing."
"Good for her", Chloe smiled.
"Yeah", Lois smiled, "I don't feel like such a failure when it comes to her…"
"Lois", Chloe smiled, "You were never a failure. Lucy was old enough to make her own decisions when she got herself into trouble."
"I know", Lois sighed, "Well, enough about my dysfunctional family… what'd I miss?"
Chloe smiled.
"Actually, I'll let Clark fill you in."
***
Clark was sitting at his desk with his palm against his face looking straight ahead at Lois' desk. He sighed and sat back folding his hands across his stomach leaning his head to the side with a small smile gracing his lips.
"Looks like someone missed me."
He looked up and grinned. Standing he walked toward her and wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug. Lois slowly hugged him back grinning over his shoulder.
"I did."
She pulled away and walked toward her vacant desk.
"I told you I'd be back, Smallville", she smiled placing her luggage by the desk and her carry on next to her computer.
"I know", he smiled, "Just this week has sort of been the longest of my life."
"I know what you mean."
"Oh", he said suddenly looking at his watch, "It's not lunch time yet but I'm sure we can sneak out and grab some food. No one would notice…"
"Clark", she smiled, "Sounds like you're asking me out on a date."
"Are you going to say yes?"
She smiled.
Clark grinned back at her.
Lois turned toward the television set in the bullpen and her smile faltered. Clark seeing her reaction turned his head to what she was seeing.
"Oh my God", she mumbled walking toward the screen, "Turn it up!"
An intern close by leaned over and adjusted the volume making it louder.
The District Attorney was currently on screen talking to the press about the Blur.
"… No one has the right to take the law into their own hands… not even the Blur…"
Lois looked at Clark with confusion but he was staring intently at the screen.
"Mr. Saks", a reporter asked, "What is it you want him to do?"
"Take responsibility, I want him to show himself. That is all. Thank you."
Lois turned to Clark with her arms crossed, "Ray Saks is a certified douche."
"He has a point", Clark shrugged, "The Blur is nothing short a vigilante."
"No Clark", she said rolling her eyes, "He's a hero. Not that you'd understand."
"Lois-"
"I have to go", she cut him off, "Rain check on lunch?"
"Sure", he nodded trying to smile.
"Thanks" she said. Grabbing her bag, she walked around him toward the stairs and left the bullpen.
***
"How awesome was that!"
Jayna nodded.
"Totally", she grinned.
"I mean did you see the size of that fire", Zan asked his sister.
"Yeah and the way you turned into water to take it out", she nodded, "Classic."
"See, I told you we could totally help out the Blur."
"Except for that stupid Ray Saks", Jayna said, "He makes the Blur seem like some sort of villain. You heard him."
"Yeah", Zan nodded, "Which is why we can't let him drag the Blur's good name in the dirt."
"Right you are little brother."
"What are you going to do?"
"Teach him a lesson."
"How?"
"You'll see", she smiled causing him to smile and nod.
They both fisted their palms and knocked them together.
Jayna turned into a black panther and winked and turned to leave the warehouse.
***
Lois paced her apartment with her cell phone in her hands. She jerked when it rang and answered it quickly.
"Hello?"
"Lois."
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"I heard the news", she said, "How are you?"
"I've had better days", he said, "Any idea who's doing this?"
"Not yet", she said, "But I'm on it."
"Lois", Clark shook his head, "I don't want you getting hurt."
"I won't", she said smiling.
"Maybe I should come out", he said slowly, "It'd get people to trust me…"
"Are you kidding", she asked, "If you come out they'd never leave you alone…"
"Lois-"
"You can't reveal your identity…"
"Okay", he nodded.
"Give me some time", she said, "I'll figure out who's behind these saves…"
"I'm working on my end", he nodded, "I'll be in touch."
"Okay", she smiled.
"And Lois", he said quickly, "It's good to have you back."
"Thank you…"
She hung up her phone placing it against her lips.
"How'd you know I was gone", she whispered to herself.
***
Clark sped into Watchtower.
"Chloe!"
"Hey", she greeted turning around, "How was lunch?"
"Clark Kent wasn't there", he grumbled.
"I'm not following…"
"Lois left as soon as she got back to talk to the Blur", he said.
"But you are the Blur."
"She doesn't know that."
"That could change", she tried smiling.
"Suddenly I have a case déjà vu. We've had this conversation before, right?"
She shrugged.
"Alright", she rolled her eyes, "Here's what I know; this morning a fire was put out. Granted it wasn't a big fire, but it was enough to call the fire department. When they got there, the fire was out but not before shutting off the water main and knocking down electricity within a five block radius. Your insignia was scorched on the side walk. And then there was a robbery. Witnesses say, don't hang me for this, that a black panther was on the scene to scare away the robbers. Unfortunately, it scared them so bad they jumped through the store windows to get away. Both are in stable conditions at Metropolis General."
"No wonder the District Attorney is after me", he muttered.
"I heard about that. I'm sorry."
He shrugged.
"Lois is trying to find out who these people are too."
"Clark, do I have to remind you what happened the last time Lois got involved", Chloe asked, "Remember John Corben?"
"It's not like that", he said, "This time… I won't let anything happen to her."
"Clark, this is Lois", Chloe shook her head, "She doesn't do anything half way."
"You think I should call her and tell her not to get involved."
"Yeah", she nodded.
He nodded agreeing.
***
Lois smiled walking into the office shaking Dr. Evans' hand.
"Miss Lane, I presume", Dr. Evans asked smiling.
"Yes", Lois nodded, "I'm your one o'clock."
"Please have a seat", Dr. Evans pointed to the comfortable couch in the room, "Or lay down, whichever is more comfortable for you."
"I'll sit thanks."
Lois sat down straight and placed her hands on her thighs. She smiled tightly as the doctor showing she was ready.
"You're old therapist referred you", Dr. Evans, "Lois, you told her the dreams are getting worse."
"She said I had to come see a specialist to get something for the insomnia."
"Are you having difficulty sleeping?"
"Yeah", Lois nodded, "It seems like every time I close my eyes, I'm seeing the end of the world and…"
"And?"
Lois bit her lip.
"Okay, can this be completely off the record?"
Dr. Evans smiled placing her notepad on the desk behind her.
"I'm all ears."
"I keep dreaming about my best friend", Lois started, "I'm seeing violence, destruction, apocalyptic type of scenarios. And he's at the center of it. Like he caused it or something…"
"I see."
"And if you knew Clark Kent, you'd think that was way off base", she continued.
"And then what happens…"
"Then the dreams change", she said softly, "And its lots of… naked… like skin on skin sort of thing…"
"Are these dreams about Clark?"
Lois rolled her eyes, "Yes… I'm doing the virtual karma sutra with Clark Kent!"
"Is that… a bad thing?"
"Not really", Lois smirked, "I mean if you see Clark Kent you definitely wouldn't think it was a bad thing."
Dr. Evans smirked biting the inside of her cheek.
"Maybe subconsciously you know there's something Clark's hiding and you want to uncover it."
"I know he's hiding something", Lois said somberly, "I've known it from the moment I met him naked in that cornfield."
"You met him while you were-"
"Not me, him!"
"Oh, he was naked?"
"This is old news", Lois said, "Has nothing to do with the now…"
"It doesn't?", Dr. Evans smiled. Lois glared.
"I just feel the closer I get to Clark, the more I feel like he's just going to…" she paused then continued in a whisper "disappear."
"Does that scare you?"
"Yeah, it does."
Lois's cell phone rang and she picked it up looking at the caller id before sending it to voicemail.
"Was that Clark?", Dr. Evans asked.
"No that was-"
Dr. Evans leaned forward.
"-Nobody", she finished.
"Mmm hmm", Dr. Evans said, "You know Lois, it seems to me that you might still hold some feelings toward this mystery caller."
"No way", Lois shook her head, "he's history like eight tracks and rotary tapes."
"You never know what could make a comeback, Lois."
"Trust me", she said shaking her head, "The last time I opened up to him, he disappeared on me."
"That could be tough."
"It was."
"Alright, Lois", Dr. Evans nodded, "I'm going to prescribe a small dosage of a sleep aid. If you're still not sleeping I want you to call me."
"Okay", she nodded, "Thanks."
Lois stood taking the prescription from her.
"And Lois", Dr. Evans called out causing her to turn around; "It seems to me, you have yourself a big decision to make."
"Tell me about it", Lois mumbled walking out the door.
***
"She didn't answer", Clark groaned closing her phone.
"Weird."
Clark shrugged.
"I'll try again later."
"Okay", Chloe nodded, "Well, I'll keep looking."
"Thanks Chloe."
"No problem", she said to herself turning back to the screen when a news report came on the television behind her.
Chloe and Clark both turned to watch the police barricades being placed around the precinct. Chloe turned up the volume.
"We're going live to the scene where a black panther is prowling the precinct. Authorities say that the hostages inside are District Attorney Ray Saks, a few deputy officers and the precinct's secretary."
Chloe turned to Clark. "Clark… panther?"
He nodded and super-sped away.
***
He arrived on the scene and super sped into the precinct picking up the panther and super speeding away towards an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.
He placed the animal on the ground and stepped back. His eyes widened as he watched the animal morph into a young girl.
"What are you?"
"Oh my God! It's really you! You're the Blur!"
Clark's leaned his head to the side in embarrassment.
***
"Woah", Stuart said walking into Watchtower, "Nice digs."
Chloe nodded. "It was a gift from my husband."
He nodded and whistled.
"You said you had something", Chloe asked.
"Yeah", Stuart nodded taking the small computer out of his bag, "I've got security footage."
"Of what?"
"A warehouse outside of Metropolis", he smiled.
"How did you-"
"I have my ways my young Jedi", he said smiling.
"Don't forget", she said, "I have a few tricks of my own, Stuart."
"Right", he nodded, "Anyway, here. I've got two potential suspects."
Chloe looked at the screen.
"They're kids."
"Ah… yes", he said, "But look closely."
Chloe watched the video as the young girl on the screen somehow morphed into a panther.
"What the hell", she asked snatching the computer from his hands.
"You're welcome", he mumbled adjusting his bag on his shoulder.
"This is incredible." she mumbled watching the screen.
"So what are they", he asked, "Shape shifters? Meteor freaks?"
Chloe looked at him curiously.
He rolled his eyes. "Working for Tess Mercer… remember?"
"I'm trying to forget", she said sarcastically.
"Any who", he shrugged, "Unless a panther escaped from the zoo, I'm willing to bet my lucky R2D2 that that's your guy… or girl… or whatever."
Chloe smirked. "Lucky R2D2?"
"I'm a Star Wars geek", he shrugged, "Sue me."
She laughed.
"Thanks for the tip", she said sincerely.
"No problem", he smiled, "I'll be in touch."
He nodded and walked out the door just as Clark super sped in.
Chloe turned, "Clark, I-"
She stopped her eyes widening at who was by his side, "… found them…"
"So did I", he sighed, "Chloe, meet Zan and Jayna, the… Wonder Twins…"
***
Lois walked into the bullpen after her session and leaned on her desk closing her eyes. In her last dream, right after Clark kissed her, they'd made love right in the middle of the bullpen and on her desk.
"Get a grip, Lois", she muttered to herself.
"Lane!"
She looked up at her editor and smiled sarcastically.
"I haven't been back a day already you're barking at me?"
"Well, I didn't miss the attitude", he shot back, "I need you to get downtown."
"What's in downtown?"
"Ray Saks just called a press conference. It's starting in about an hour. You might want to hurry to get a good spot."
She watched him walk away and grabbed her bag racing out of the bullpen.
***
Zan and Jayna were both sitting down on the couch, while Clark, Oliver and Chloe stood in front of them with their arms crossed.
"You guys are seriously starting to look like our parents", Zan said breaking the ice.
"Do you have any idea the damages you've caused", Oliver asked.
"We were just trying to help."
"Well, you didn't", Oliver said.
"Oliver", Clark stopped him and turned back to the siblings, "Why are you here?"
"Because, we love you", Jayna said, "You're our idol. We look up to you."
"Why?"
"In this crappy world no one else is taking the time to be a hero", Zan shrugged, "Not the president or anyone else… except for you."
"Hello, Green Arrow", Oliver raised his hand sarcastically.
"You've been MIA, green bean."
Chloe snorted and Clark smirked.
"Do you know Bart", Oliver asked.
"Bart", Zan said slowly shaking his head, "No…."
Clark licked his lips. "Oliver, I'll handle it."
"Sure, Blur", Oliver said smirking sarcastically.
Clark walked closer to them.
"You have to know that what you did was wrong, right?"
"We were just trying to help."
"I know", he nodded, "But it wasn't the right way to go."
"Sorry", they both mumbled.
"It's okay", Clark said smiling.
"Clark, we still have to get the DA off your back", Oliver said.
"How do we do that", Chloe asked looking up at her best friend.
Clark looked at the twins.
"You want to help", he asked as their eyes lit up and they nodded.
He smiled, "I've got an idea."
***
Lois slammed her hand on the steering wheel. The traffic was not letting up on the way to downtown and she was only a few blocks away. She turned on the radio trying to listen in to the live coverage of the press conference.
"We're now going live to downtown where District Attorney Ray Saks has called a press conference."
"I'm not here as the District Attorney, or as a political official", Ray Saks said, "I'm here as a citizen of this great city…"
"Oh please", Lois grumbled.
She looked ahead and could see the crowd gathered around the stage. There was no way out of the traffic jam so she made a quick decision and jumped out of her car.
"Ma'am", an officer stopped her, "Stay in your vehicle."
Lois showed him her press pass. "I need to get over there. It's a matter of life and death."
"Then you wait like everyone else", he said starting to push her back.
"You don't understand-"
A brawl between two drivers got their attention and Lois smiled when she saw the officer leave her to break the fight up.
She jumped over the barricade and ran through the crowd toward the stage. She reached the front in time to listen to the end of the speech.
"… If the Blur truly wants our trust… then let him show his face…. Let him show us who he really is…."
Lois looked around her at the crowd and the silence that fell upon it. She dashed toward the stage and climbed up.
"Ma'am", two soldiers stood in front of her, "You need to step down."
"Stand down", she said, "Don't you know who I am…"
"Frankly, no ma'am…"
"Well, General Sam Lane wouldn't appreciate his daughter being manhandled", she said, "I can have you on dishonorable discharge before you get your coffee in the morning. Now… get. Out. Of. My. Way."
The two soldiers gulped and moved aside letting her through.
She walked up behind Ray Saks and blurted, "He can't show his face."
The crowd looked at her as Ray Saks turned around.
"Excuse me", he said slowly.
"He can't show his face", she repeated.
"Get this woman off the stage", Ray Saks ordered.
"I know him!"
Ray Saks looked at her curiously.
"You know the Blur", he asked slowly.
"Well, he's saved my life so many times", she said walking toward the podium, "Just like he's saved you."
The crowd shouted up at them.
"He saved me from a train!"
"He saved my son from a fire!"
"My husband would have died had he not stopped the bank robbery!"
"The Blur saved my cat from a tree", a little girl yelled.
Lois smiled softly.
"Exactly", she said, "We've all encountered the Blur one way or another. He may not show us who he is, but we know we can trust him. He needs to be that symbol. That symbol of peace, of hope, of justice. We all need to believe in something… why not believe in him? He's a light in this dark city. And I have no doubt in my mind he'll continue to be one."
"I'm the Blur!"
Lois looked down at the crowd to see a young girl jump up on the stage and open her purple jacket to reveal a black shirt with the silver insignia.
"I'm the Blur", she repeated.
Lois smirked.
"No", a boy from the crowd opened a similar jacket and shouted, "I'm the Blur!"
Lois looked down at him and watched as different people inside the crowd opened up their jackets show similar black shirts.
"I'm the Blur!"
"No, I am!"
"I'm him!"
"If you want the Blur, Saks, you'll have to take us all in!
"I'm the Blur!"
Lois smiled brightly and looked at Ray Saks as he looked down at the crowd.
"I hope you have a big enough cell in that precinct of yours, Mr. District Attorney", she shrugged looking down at the crowd.
He glared at her.
"Get me out of here", he barked at a nearby officer and walked off the stage.
The crowd broke into applause and Lois smiled. She spotted Clark in the crowd and smiled softly at him as he smiled back at her. Then it hit her. Clark Kent. He was always there when she needed him most. He was never around when the Blur was. He got shot last year and a week later he was fine. He's saved her more times than she can count. Her eyes widened.
"Clark", she whispered.
***
Clark watched as the crowd dispersed and smiled as Jayna and Zan walked up to him.
"Thanks guys", he nodded.
"Oh don't sweat it", Zan said slapping his hand, "It was fun, bro."
Clark nodded smiling.
"I'm glad we got to meet you", Jayna said hugging him.
"Me too", Clark nodded, "So where are you going next?"
"I don't know", Zan sighed placing his hands in the pockets of his jacket, "Maybe we'll go see where the world need's us. It's a big world out there."
Clark raised an eyebrow.
"Don't worry, Clark, we'll be careful."
He smiled relieved.
"If you need a sidekick", Zan said, "Look us up."
"I'm a solo kind of guy", Clark smiled.
"Yeah, you definitely don't need a sidekick", Jayna shook her head.
"But I could always use an ally", Clark said.
"Well, we're here", Zan said nodding, "We're on your side."
"I appreciate that", Clark nodded.
"We better go", Jayna said, "We're burning day light."
"Yeah", Zan nodded shaking his hand, "See you around, Clark."
Jayna walked up to him and hugged him.
"She's one of a kind", she whispered in his ear, "You're lucky to have her."
"I know", Clark grinned.
Jayna stepped back and smiled, "Bye Clark."
"Bye", Clark said as he watched them walk away towards their and drive off. He sighed feeling good about himself for the first time since the whole mess had started. He turned to super speed home when his cell phone rang.
"Hello", he answered it without checking the caller.
"Clark?"
"Lois", he asked hearing a lot of wind, "Where are you?"
"I'm on the roof of the Daily Planet, I'm going to jump."
Clark heard the phone click and he super sped toward the Daily Planet.
***
Lois was on the ledge when he arrived. His heart shot up into his throat as fear over took him.
"Lois!"
She turned around with her head leaning to the side.
"What are you doing", he asked walking toward her slowly.
"You're him, aren't you", she asked, "You're the Blur!"
"I don't know what you're talking about, Lois", he was saying with his hands lifted.
"Clark, please", she asked, "For once, tell the truth…"
"Lois I-"
"I realized it today", she said cutting him off, "When I saw you in the crowd."
He dropped his hands watching her every move. He was standing right in front of her now.
"All those times I was saved", she said, "It was you, wasn't it?"
"Lois…"
"I mean, you got shot for crying out loud and a week later, nothing was wrong…"
He closed his eyes.
"And you slipped up", she said causing him to snap his head back at her, "You called me as the Blur and said it was good to have me back… except he didn't know I was gone… you did."
He closed his eyes tightly, silently kicking himself. He did mess up.
"I'm sorry, Lois, but I-"
And then it all happened so fast. Lois heel snapped and she jerked falling forward. Her ear piercing scream and instinct caused him to react reaching for her. He watched as she held on to the ledge and stretched his arm in front of her.
"Give me your hand", he said.
"I can't", she called out, "I can't let go!"
"Lois", he said softly as she looked up at him, "Trust me…"
She nodded as she put her right hand in his left one and her left hand in his right one. He slowly pulled her up and back over the ledge, falling back with her on top of him. Both breathed deeply as the shock fell away at had just happened.
"Lois…"
"I'm sorry", she said, "I'm so sorry…"
"For what?"
"Clark… I-"
He cut her off with his mouth on hers. He gave everything he had into the kiss. Lois placed a hand on his cheek and the other combed through his hair. He held on to her waist and slipped his tongue out to lick her lips. She granted him entrance and both tongues dueled for dominance. With her still on top of him, he kissed her fully on the mouth.
He heard her moan into the kiss and felt her shudder. He lifted himself up slightly from the concrete and deepened the kiss. When he pulled away from her lips he kissed the corner of her mouth, to her cheek and down to her neck. Lois grinned at the things he was doing with his mouth.
"Smallville…."
He looked at her with lust filled eyes.
"Yeah", he asked.
"I'm getting wet", she said.
"Lois", his eyes bugged out.
She rolled her eyes.
"I mean my clothes are getting wet", she said glaring, "The floor's wet."
"Oh", he said, "Sorry…"
He stood and helped her up.
He smiled at her and she smiled back.
"What", she asked.
"Don't do ever do that again", he said seriously.
"Don't worry, I don't plan on it", she shook her head, "I can't believe I thought you, of all people, was the Blur…. My dumbest idea ever…."
"It was definitely not your brightest", he agreed.
She glared. "If you tell anyone… I'll…. I'll…"
"You'll what", he grinned.
"Elmer Fudd will make an appearance", she said smiling cheekily.
"No way", he said, "That was used for your last black mail. You can't use that again."
"And why not", she asked crossing her arms.
"Because", he said, "It's unorthodox!"
"What is this, an ethics class", she asked turning around to walk back into the building, "Fine… Elmer stays in your closet of dirty secrets, but the baby pictures your mom emailed me are fair game…"
"Baby pictures", he said laughing shaking his head, "Like my mom would send you baby pictures…"
She leaned her head to the side.
"Well, fine… I was cute kid anyway."
"I believe there's one of you with a towel wrapped around your neck like a cape", she said smirking faking like if she was remembering.
"So", he asked.
"Well, you're only…", she moved closer till her lips were only a breath away from his and continued "…wearing that towel."
She smiled and turned walking inside.
His eyes widened.
"Lois!"

Chloe and Oliver leaned against the desk with their arms crossed when Zan and Jayna walked in.
Zan shrugged.
"You wanted to see us?"
"Yeah", Oliver smiled, "How would you like to be… a part of a team…?"
"A team", Jayna asked.
"What like a football team", Zan asked sarcastically.
"Not exactly", Chloe said standing straight, "Watchtower isn't only for Clark and Oliver's use… it's for heroes all over. Oliver and I are trying to get a team together… You in?"
"Yeah", Zan and Jayna nodded.
"What do you call yourselves", Zan asked.
"We don't know yet", Chloe said looking at Oliver.
"We're thinking of something with the word Justice in it", Oliver said.
"How about the Justice Team", Jayna said.
"Or Justice League", Zan offered.
Oliver smiled.
"We'll see", he said.
