This is my first fanfic ever so please R&R or I won't write anymore :)
Okay so in this fic Clark is working at the Talon and decides it's time to make his move with Lana and to make sure that she's happy. Cuz that seems to be what he wants in the show right? Oh and Clark isn't an alien, he's just a normal teenage high schooler who's in love with Lana. (It'll make sense later I promise).
Clarks P.O.V.
One night we were closing up & it was then that I decided to make my move. I had just put up the last chair but Lana was still cleaning off the counter so I went & sat on one of the stools by the counter while she finished up.
"Hey Lana?"
"Yeah Clark?" she replied still wiping off the counter.
"Are you happy?" I asked hoping she would understand what I was asking.
"What are you talking about?" she asked confused. She had stopped wiping off the counter & was now looking at me.
"Are you happy with Whitney?" I asked, not sure if I wanted to know the answer.
She looked shell shocked. Then she said "Of course I'm happy. Why shouldn't I be?" Then she turned away & I could hear her crying. I hated to see her cry. So I stood up, took her hand & brought her around the counter to sit on a stool but as soon as she was close enough she threw her arms around me and hugged me & buried her face in my chest as she cried. I had always dreamed of holding her but this was different. I just returned the hug & held her as she cried. Right now she just needed a friend.
"I hate it," she said, "I hate that I can't have any guy friends because Whitney thinks they all just want to date me. I hate hearing about how Whitney threatened so-and-so because they said I was cute. But most of all I hate that I can't date the guy I really want to date."
"And who's that?" I had to ask, I felt like I needed to know.
She stopped crying, wiped her face & looked up at me & said "You Clark. I've always loved you." I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest it was beating so fast. Then I saw her look down, like she was ashamed she had said that. I removed my right hand from her upper back and lifted her chin with my hand. She looked surprised that I was smiling. Then I couldn't hold it in any longer. I had to tell her.
"Lana I love you too." Then she smiled at me and I knew that smile. That was her smile of pure joy. I suddenly had this strong urge to kiss her. As I looked at her she looked like she wanted me to kiss her as well. So I did. And when I kissed her everything else in my mind faded away as I realized "Oh my gosh!" I'm finally kissing Lana Lang! Our kiss was interrupted abruptly when we heard the front door slam shut. As I saw who it was I knew I was in trouble. And so did Lana.
I could hear the fear in her voice as she said his name, "Whitney."
