Music filled the car as Lois scanned through the stations on the radio.
Every feeling that I get
But I still don't miss you yet
Finally satisfied with the song that was playing, Lois sat back as Chloe drove down the highway.
"Lois," Chloe began hesitantly, "there's something I need to talk to you about."
"Chloe, you know you can talk to me about anything."
"I know; and I need you to be completely honest with yourself about this."
"Sure, Chlo'."
Chloe glanced at her cousin. "How do you feel? About Clark?"
"Huh?" was all that Lois was able to get out.
"Do you like Clark?" Chloe rephrased.
"Chlo', you know that the farm boy and I can't stand each other."
"Uh huh," Chloe said, not believing her.
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me
Lois quickly changed the station, not noticing that Chloe was watching her with an amused grin.
She laughs at my dreams
But I dream about her laughter
Strange as it seems
She's the one I'm after
Lois changed the station again.
You found me
When no one else was looking
How did you know
Just where I would be
Falling, head over heels I'm falling,
In love with you, I'm falling
And I can't get up,
Don't want to get up
Because of love
Who is gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together
Lois glared at the radio as she hit the 'Power' button and stared out the window.
"Yeah. You don't like him. I can tell," Chloe said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
"My not liking those songs has nothing to do with my not liking Clark," Lois countered.
"You're right. It has to do with you liking Clark and not wanting to admit it."
"I can barely stand to be in the same room as him for any amount of time."
"Then why are you two always around each other?" Chloe said pointedly. "You say that you don't like him, but all the evidence disproves that."
"What evidence," Lois scoffed.
"Where to begin," Chloe muttered sarcastically. "Okay, the first time you met. You had to tell yourself to look at his face."
"That only says that he's slightly attractive." At that Chloe snorted, earning a glare from her older cousin.
"What about the time you 'accidentally purposely' walked in on him when he was in the shower?"
Lois shrugged. "You have to admit that it is fun to get the 'innocent' farm boy into trouble."
"Okay, but there's no denying the looks you two were giving each other right after you dunked him."
"What? There were no looks!" Chloe ignored Lois' indignant outburst and continued on as if nothing had happened.
"Then there was the time you were flirting with him - well, more blatantly than usual."
"When was this!"
"At my party."
"I was possessed!"
"So what! They didn't go after anyone we didn't like," she pointed out to the fuming Lois.
"Not fair. You can't use something that I don't remember against me."
Chloe abruptly swerved to the side of the road and brought the car to an abrupt halt.
"Chloe! What the heck!" Lois screamed as she braced against the dashboard.
"This car isn't going anywhere until you stop making excuses and admit that you like Clark."
"Then I guess we're gonna be here for a very long time."
"So, you're saying that you like him, but you just don't want to admit it."
"No."
"You didn't deny the fact that you like him."
"Fine! I like him, alright! Now can we go?"
"Sure," Chloe said with a grin before starting the car up and getting back on the road.
A few minutes later, Chloe glanced over at her cousin and smirked. "Now you just have to tell him."
"Not gonna happen… ever," Lois said confidently.
"We'll see," Chloe said quietly as she pulled up outside the Talon.
The End.
