Clark and Lois pulled into the parking lot of the high school. Lois sighed when he shut off the engine. She smoothed her black evening gown and picked up her matching purse.

"Clark, hand me my regular pocketbook. It's behind your seat. I've got to transfer the contents."

"Lois, we've been on the road for hours and you're just now doing that?"

"What can I say? I like waiting until the last minute."

"Here give it to me. I can switch it all over in a second."

She looked up at him as if he had suggested the world was cubed. "I don't want everything transferred. That would be a waste of time. I have to make a careful evaluation of each item."

She slowly put in a tube of lipstick, a credit card, and then she stopped to read a coupon.

"Lois, I promise you that you won't need a coupon in there."

"Clark, the date on this thing might run out and then where we would be? We might have to leave early to go buy—," she looked at the coupon, "a can of Jolly Green Giant corn. 2 cents off. You can't miss a bargain like that."

"I know you're just stalling for time, Lois, and I don't understand why you don't want to go to our tenth high school reunion."

"Your tenth high school reunion."

"You went there too for a little while."

"Not long enough to be considered alumnae."

"Come on. I'm sure there are people that you're curious to see what happened to and there has to be some people that you liked and want to see again."

"Smallville, I didn't even like you in high school."

"You couldn't keep your hands off me."

She hit him on the arm.

"See?"

She rolled her eyes. "You know what the worst part is? It's that it's a Smallville High Reunion. It can't turn out normal."

"Says who?"

"Says the laws of the universe. Oh well, at least it won't be boring and we might get a story out of it. Let's get this over with." She reached for the handle and gave a gasp of surprise. A blonde woman was silhouetted against the night sky. Said woman smiled and stepped back, so Lois could open the door.

"Great way to give somebody a heart attack, Chloe," Lois said.

"Sorry, Cuz. We saw you two pull up a few minutes ago and we wondered what was taking you guys so long."

"We?" Lois asked. Clark had gotten out and was standing beside Lois with his arm around her waist.

She motioned to her right and a man stepped forward. "I'd like you guys to meet my fiancé, Bruce Wayne."

"Wow, you could really give somebody a heart attack. You blended right into the dark. I didn't even see you," Lois said

"And Bruce, this is my cousin, Lois, and her husband, Clark. We all go way back. Obviously, this is a high school reunion."

He shook Clark and Lois' hands. "It's nice to finally meet you, Lois. I've heard so much about you."

"All good things I hope," she laughed.

"Define good," he said, smiling.

"I like him," Lois said to Chloe. "Where are you guys going to be staying?"

"At a hotel near town. Where will you two be staying?" Bruce asked.

"At Clark's mother's. We wanted her to come to the reunion with us and chaperone for old times sake, but she said we were too old for that. I told her not to blame us if I come back from the dance pregnant."

"I see Chloe wasn't exaggerating about your humor," Bruce said.

"We better go inside," Clark said.

"Why didn't I just stay home like I wanted to," Lois muttered.

They headed for the door.

"I feel like we're about to step through a time portal and become kids again," Chloe said. The funny thing was that seemed to excite her. "Hurry up, Clark, and open the door. I know you can move faster than that."

"Sheesh, Chloe," Lois smiled at her. "Switch to decaf. We'll all feel like we're back in the nightmare that is high school soon enough."

Clark opened the door and the light and music came blasting out.
