Chapter 1
Laughter could be heard throughout the yellow painted farm house. "So I walk up to him after pulling my glasses off and he turns beat red. He then goes stiffer than a board and tries to sit up further in his chair," the young brunette said in between fits of laughter and giggles, her voice rising with each word. "Mrs. Kent, you should have seen the look on his face when I sat down in his lap. He seriously looked like he was about to piss in his pants."
The older woman could not stop laughing while the Mister kept chuckling and slapping his son on the back. It was safe to say that Clark was not amused. He had his head in his hands and was shaking in embarrassment. "He was adorable Mrs. Kent." Shit!... Shit shit shit! she thought to herself.
She was right because Clark's head shot up and the laughter subsided. Lois would have run if Clark's eyes weren't calling her to stay. Trying to clear herself of this very uncomfortable situation she responded, "Well, as adorable as Smallville here can get."
Whew, good one Lane. Can't have anymore slip-ups.
Everyone seemed to buy it. "And when I asked for a twenty…" she started again, hoping to get on the same topic and light-hearted atmosphere they were just on. The two grown-ups started laughing again while Clark dropped his head back down. After the story seemed like it wouldn't end, Clark got up, clearing the table and starting on the dishes. Everyone soon followed, Lois joining him as the dryer.
Gaining a little confidence from their silence, Clark joked, "So Lois, did you keep the dress and outfit? After that early Halloween party at the fraternity I don't feel like dancing but if you really wanted to, I could dress up as a sailor?"
Damn that sexy mischievous smile, Lois thought to herself. But the idea was rather tempting. "Sure Kent. Chloe's dorm is having one, we should go."
Clark was baffled. She really wants to go? Huh? I'm lost 'cause I know this isn't Lois. "Umm… Lois, it was a joke. I didn't really think you'd go for it."
"What Kent, you chicken? Get cold feet all of a sudden?"
"Don't challenge him Lois," came Jonathan's warning tone. Lois may not have known, but Clark loved to be challenged.
"Oh it's on," Clark said, with a gleam in his eyes that Lois couldn't place. Clark was a humble person, but even humble people need to let their Kal sides out every once in a while, right?
Lois gulped, not expecting this new wave of confidence, gone was the shy noble farm boy. Now stood a confident man in his place.
"Don't worry Lois, I'll reveal just as much as you," Clark said, before winking and heading out to the loft.
Tomorrow would be a very interesting day indeed.
