In the next morning, Chloe was in the Talon drinking some coffee with muffins while reading the last Daily Planet when Clark arrived looking for Lois as he noticed Chloe drinking her coffee in the counter.
"Chloe? Did you see Lois?" Clark asked concerned without even greeting Chloe property.
"Good morning for you too, Clark." Chloe snapped at him sarcastically. "I'm doing fine, by the way."
"I'm sorry. But I'm worried about Lois. Did she say something today?" Clark asked before Chloe sipped her coffee.
"I didn't talk to her yet. I mean, when I came home yesterday she was pretty much off so I decided to not wake her, and today when I woke up she was gone." Chloe explained as Clark narrowed her eyes worried. "Maybe she was feeling better and decided to... I don't know. Go back to the Inquisitor or something."
"I guess so." Clark nodded before his super hearing caught a high heels noise coming when the door opened. Clark laid his eyes on Lois and couldn't believe what he was seeing. Lois Lane, in an all-black leather outfit and short skirt, with bright red lip stick, her hair with curls and a strategically placed tattoo next to her breast, which Clark could recognize from anywhere: It was the same drawing on Kawatche caves, that represented Clark's soulmate and that looked exactly like the bracelet Kyla's grandfather gave to him after she passed away four years ago. But how did Lois know about the bracelet?
Lois moved slowly with a grin in her lips, looking directly at Clark. He looked uncomfortable at her. What was going on?
Lois jumped in Clark's arms giving him another passionate kiss. "Clarkie, you are here!" she said for Chloe's amusement who was trying hard to keep her smile in place without bursting into laughter.
"Lois, what is going on?" Clark asked looking at her black leather outfit. "Why are you wearing this during the day?"
"You don't like it?" Lois asked anxious waiting for Clark's answer. "I bought it just to please you."
"Really?" Clark inquired still confused and surprised with Lois behavior. "Well, in that case, thanks. You look great." Clark shared a glance with Chloe as Lois was hugging him again, ready to kiss him again. "Lois, could you excuse me for a moment? I need to talk to Chloe for a minute."
Lois sighed frustrated as Clark and Chloe entered in the kitchen.
"Chloe, she isn't acting like herself. Do you think she is possessed?" Clark asked as Chloe smiled at him amused with the situation. "Chloe, it's not funny!"
"Actually, it is. Lois is in love with you, Clark. You should be happy about it."
"She thinks she is in love with me. I don't want her like that, Chloe. It's not right." Clark shakes his head really confused. "Let me see. She started to act weird yesterday…"
"After she left the tent in the luau after getting tattooed." Chloe commented before figuring out what was going on. "Maybe the ink in the tattoo had some kinda of love potion. Like that girl Mandy did with the football players a few years ago in High School, do you remember?"
"How can I forget?" Clark said with a playful smirk making Chloe blush. "You even dressed as cheerleader."
"Please, let's forget about that okay?" Chloe's cheeks turned into red as she remembered her humiliation. "Let's focus on Lois right now!"
"Okay."
"Well, the luau is over but I have Rachel's phone number. Maybe she can give me the studio address where the artist who tattooed Lois works and we can figure out what happened…"
"Sounds great." Clark nodded before Chloe started to call her friend Rachel.
