Now...Back from the dead, and ready to get rolling...ACTION!
Rest of Pete's Flashback...
Pete and Chloe amusingly glances over to Clark and Lois who sat frozen to their own sides of the couch, far from each other as possibly they could after the almost kiss that happen in front of everyone. The elder Kents as well fought to keep their bemusing smilies from surfacing through at the situation their son and Lois gotten into.
Through the rest of the movie, everyone kept silent, fighting all the while inside to keep from breaking out in laughter or smile that would have definitely annoyed the two that clung to either sides of the small love seat. The Kents along with Pete and Chloe notices as Clark and Lois glances at the other when they think the other isn't looking, trying hard to act like nothing happened.
Clark nervously brushes his hand through his thick raven hair, he takes a quick look over to Lois who held fiercely onto the pillow in front of her, and quickly tears his eyes away as hers come to his. He lets out a deep sigh inside, wondering what the hell he was thinking...
He eyes sneak a peak of her again in the dark living room as she intently watches the tv screen...pretending to watch the movie. Noting how beautiful her skin lit up from the soft glow of the tv, her eyes sparkled from the light...
Get a hold of yourself Kent, he says to himself, smacking his hand over his face and rubs it down. There's no way you were going to kiss her...or she kiss you back for that matter, you were just seeing things...it's just not Possible, is it?
He takes a chance to sneak another look her way, glad she doesn't notice...his heart starts to pick up a beat faster as his eyes drop down to her full lips that were so close to his. Trying to imagine how it would have felt if they did kiss.
Clark snaps his face away and shakes his head.
Ok, something is wrong with me...there has to be Red-K around...I can't be thinking of Lois in that way!...
...and why not?, came his inner voice again to haunt him...you're a guy, she's a girl...and what a girl at that...a body you could do some real damage with.
I'm not blind...I "am" a guy for god sakes, I can tell she's attractivve...but she's...she's Lois!
"I'm losing it!" Clark says more loudly then he wanted to, getting stares from the rest in the room.
He fights the blush creeping over his face as he gives a sheepish grin back and returns his eyes to the tv.
Yea, he really is...Lois smirks to herself, hugging the pillow to her chest as she looks at Clark strangely.
He isn't the only one who's loosing it, you know?" Lois inner conscious came in the image of herself, sitting on the arm of the couch beside her and eating a bowl of popcorn.
Lois rolls her eyes and huffs out, annoyed at the other "her".
No, he is...because I'm perfectly sane. Lois states obviously. I know where my priorities lie...it was just a moment, I was caught off guard...anyone would have been the same...
Her cu furrow her brow up. God, I really do talk too much...she scoffs and shakes her head.
...but yea, whatever you say...if it helps you sleep at night...
Lois turns her head, looking at her inner voice munching away on popcorn. What are you implying?
Her conscious raises her brow up and leans close to Lois' face. I "am" you...so what are "you" trying to tel yourself?...
Why don't you just admit it man...you have the hots for Lois "Army Brat" Lane...what's the big deal?" Clark's conscious says, in his image, flopping his folded arms on the top of the couch.
We've already established you're attracted to her...his conscious states as he looks over to Lois, reaching out his hand and places a strand of her chestnut hair behind her ear.
...you would have to be gay not to see how beautiful she is...
"Stop IT!" Clark says watching as his conscious plays with Lois' soft curls.
His inner voice pulls his invisible hand to everyone else except Clark, away from Lois and gives Clark a pointed look.
I can't believe you're actually getting Jealous at your ownself...you're more lost then I thought...he says with an evil smirk. Lois has gotten in man...and you like that she has.
I mean seriously what's wrong with the guy?
Lois turns her head to see her inner self sitting across Clark's lap, her fingers tracing around Clark's face.
It certainly can't be his looks...because lets face it, boy is hot enough to eat. she says with a sly smile. Imagine what he tastes like!
Lois chokes on her soda, coughing loudly at those words, everyone turning their heads to look at her strangely. She quickly shoots her eyes to glare at her inner voice who still sat comfortably on Clark's lap, looking smugly back at her.
Clark notices Lois staring at some imaginary thing on him and raises his brow at her, giving her a look that said, "Are you alright?"
Lois catches the look he gives her and rolls her eyes as she tightly folds her arms over her chest, clearly annoyed. She jumps as her inner voice suddenly appears beside her, she resting her hand in her palms as she looks at Lois.
Just admit it Lane...Kent has found a way in...and you like it. she says in a teasing voice.
"I don't let people in!" Lois shouts to press her point, but only gets weird looks again and groans in embarrassment.
"Clearly..." Clark mutters and shakes his head, getting a steely glare from Lois.
Martha and Johnathan give each other amusing looks, a wide smile on their lips at the two's behavior.
Their conscious lean close to their ears, smiling knowingly as they whispered in their ears. Just give in...
"NO!" Clark and Lois shout simultaneously.
They look at each other after it happens and groans while Chloe and Pete can't contain their amusement any longer, watching as they look like they were battling with themselves; they having no ideal how true it was.
Chloe and Pete burst with laughter at the two as Martha raises to her feet, and softly shakes her head, smiling.
"Well, I think that will be enough excitement for me and Johnathan tonight, we're going to turn in." She says tugging on her husband's arm.
"We are?" he questions her, speaking for the both of them as his brow raises up at his wife and gets a stern look from her.
"I guess so..."
"You guys behave yourselves..." Martha says in a motherly tone as she looks over the four, her eyes stopping on Clark, he blushes at the look his mom gives him.
"We Wiiiiill..." Chloe and Pete says together in a teasingly, mocking voice.
Martha lets out a soft laugh along with Jonathan by her side.
"Night Kids...and Clark, play nice." his father says in a teasing, warning voice.
Clark slumps deeper down in the couch, wishing it would swallow him up as her fought the heat from his cheeks."
"Night mom, dad." he says in an embarrassed voice.
"Sweet Dreams kids." Martha says as she and Jonathan leave from the room.
"Niiiiiight..." Chloe and Pete calls after them, a cheek smile on their faces at they turned and look at the other two.
Lois rolls her eyes and throws her pillow, whacking Chloe in the face with it, making her laugh more.
"I wonder who's going to break first?..." Pete says staring carefully at the two and rubs his chin.
"Who's side are you on...traitor!" Clark smirks and shakes his head.
"Break?...Break?...Oh, the only thing that's going to break is on you y'all neck from my hands!" Lois quirks.
"So, Clark pining you down to the couch..." Chloe starts only for Lois to quickly interrupts.
"Was NOTHING!...absolutely NOTHING!" Lois rushes out, and to Clark's own surprised hurt him to hear for some confusing reason.
"Just him trying to get the popcorn, that's all!"
"Sure..." Chloe quips, not believing Lois at all and sees the flash of pain to Lois' words, across Clark's face that no one else seem to notice.
"My money is on Beauty." Pete says, placing some popcorn in his mouth.
"Why because I'm a girl, Baldy?" Lois smirks, rolling her eyes playfully as Pete runs his hand over his head and playfully glares back at her.
"...and wait, there's nothing to break to!"
"You obviously don't know my Cousin too well." Chloe says to Pete, ignoring Lois.
"Clark is the one you should be betting on."
"Hello...am I just speaking for my health over here?" Lois lets out sarcastically.
Clark scoots to the edge of the sofa, confused by what they were implying. "What exactly are we suppose to break to?"
"Don't encourage them, Smallville..." Lois smirks and stares over to them. "...they are clearly nuts and don't have a clue what they're talking about either."
"So, it's a deal then?" Chloe asks Pete holding out her hand for him to shake, which he does.
"You're going down my blonde friend..." he says smugly.
"Ok, yo Bonnie and Clyde...did you two not hear a word I said?"
"Lo, I think half the town has heard." Chloe snarks, and rolls her eyes.
"Well then they won't hold me liable for what I'm about to do to you!" Lois says sarcastically.
"Well?" Clark asks, pressing his earlier question again.
Chloe and Pete look at each other and laugh while Lois rolls her eyes to the back of her head, even she knew what they were talking about...Smallville is so naive.
"You'll see..." was all Chloe says behind a sneaky smile."
"Uh, no he won't...cuz it's not going to happen!" Lois snarks back.
Chloe and Pete once again pass each other knowing looks of amusement as they smile widely.
"...and stop with the looks, it's obnoxious...and don't matter how much you guys think you're right...you are soooo wrong!" Lois smirks.
"Ok, everyone is getting a bit...cranky." Clark says nervously, starring at Lois as he said this. "Maybe we should turn in now...it is pretty late?"
"Well you guys have fun deciding who gets the couch..." Lois smirks teasingly. "Come on Chloe, you can share Clark's comfy bed with me."
"Why thank you, my dear lady." Chloe mocks playfully in a fake British accent as she and Lois laugh.
"Have fun guys..." Lois taunts, she walking arm-in-arm with Chloe from the living room and up the stairs to Clark's bedroom.
Pete shakes his head and pats Clark's shoulder as he watches them leave.
"You are one lucky guy, Clark." Pete says in as teasing voice, Clark turns his head to look at him.
"Pete don't ever leave me..."
Pete laughs, shaking his head" Sorry man, but I return back home in a few days."
"I'm doomed..." Clark drops his head down in fake despair but smile widely, making Pete burst out laughing more.
Lois walks into the bedroom from the bathroom and slides under the cool sheets, a smile forms on her lips as she sinks into the pillow.
"Looks like you missed sleeping in Clark's bed." Chloe says teasingly.
Lois eyes pops open and gives her an annoyed look. "I'm just happy to rest my body on something comfortable and not the hard floor like Clarkie is probably doing."
"How would you know he took the floor?" Chloe asks getting side-tracked for a moment.
"Please, Clark is a Boyscout, of course he did." Lois smirks.
"So, is that smile all just about getting to "rest" comfortably?" Chloe asks in an implying way.
"Chloe for your 411...I don't like Clark...in that way, he's more like an overbearing brother." she huffs out, trying to slip off to sleep but her Cuz stopping that from happening.
"Right..." Chloe quips. "Last time I checked...you don't get urges to want to kiss your brother."
"I'm serious, Pete...Lois...Lois, well is like a sister." Clark says, laying down on the blanket he lays on the floor and sinks his head into the pillow.
"So, it's just a natural thing to want to kiss your sister these days?" Pete teases as he gets himself comfortable on the couch. "Oh, yea I tried that once..."
Clark throws a pillow at him and rolls his eyes playfully as Pete laughs.
"Come on may, you can't tell me you don't feel nothing toward her...She's hot and has a fire about her..."
"Look...I'm not blind, she's attractive...very attractive..." Clark says, dazing off about her, and shakes the thoughts away.
Yea, I admit Clark has a body of a god...and he is easy on the eyes...very easy on the eyes." Lois say smiling widely and changes her expression from the smugged look on Chloe's face.
"I mean it isn't hard to notice...especially with the view I seen." Lois smirks, smiling widely and gets bumped into the side by Chloe who laughs.
"Buuuut?"
"But..." Lois huffs out. "...he's Clark...we dint' see each other that way..."I" don't see him that way!"
Chloe cocks her brow up at Lois as she continues to rant.
"He's Smallville "Farmboy" Kent...he broods...he's annoying..."
"She's Lois "Loud Mouth" Lane...she's bossy rude stubbron..." Clark says in a frustrated tone, only becoming more confused.
Pete only smiles at him as he continues his ranting, knowing all the while inside his friend had it hard for the Miss Lane.
"He's so predictable...BoyScout...goodie-two-shoes, and please don't get me started on the whole hero complex he has going on..." Lois smirks, rubbing her hands through her hair.
Chloe only shakes her head and rolls her eyes, knowing the denial dance of her cousin for far too long.
"She drives me crazy...she never listens to anything she's told...she's a pain in my side!"
"Yet, I never seen you smile wider like when she's around..." Pete states looking at him smugly.
"He's a pain in the ass!" Lois scoffs sand groans at even possible thought of them as an item.
"Then why does your face light so much when he's around?"
Lois looks flabbergasted and grabs the pillow from behind herself and smacks Chloe with it as she blocks the hit with her arms.
"It does not!" Lois protests to Chloe's statement.
"You're blushing Lois...just by thinking about him." Chloe points out.
Lois grabs her face at the familiar warm feeling over cheeks. "No Way!...It can't happen!"
"Me and Lois? Never!" Clark says in disbelief. " I mean it wouldn't work...I couldn't even think of us in that way!"
"Liar!" Chloe shouts. "You've so thought about you two as an item...stop denying it!"
Lois holds her pillow over her face and groans loudly into it. "Farmboy can not be don't this to me...not me of all people!"
"Lo, we can't help who we fall in love with..."
"NO!" Lois shouts out, pulling the pillow from her face and stares at Chloe. "...this is not love...this..."
"Is what?" Chloe asks giving Lois a sly look.
"I don't know..." Clark sighs, confused that there couldn't "be" anything between them at all. "...I really don't know what I'm feeling maybe it was just a moment."
"It was more then just a moment that passed between you and Lois, Clark..." Pete explains. "I could see...anyone could see it man...there's something more between you two."
"I can't believe it!" Lois groans her hands over her face. "Me and Smallville...No!"
"Yes!" Chloe laughs at her stubbornness. "Stop fighting it, Lo...you have feeling for Clark!"
"What do I do about it, Pete?" Clark asks. "I'm not sure what I'm feeling toward her...if anything..."
Pete sits up and yawns as he looks at his troubled friend. "Why don't you ask her out and see if what you're feeling for her is real?"
"What!...as in a date?!" Clark swallows hard in shock.
""Hey, how will you know if you don't try it out...or ask her out?" Pete says, yawning again before flopping down into the couch and turning on his side, slipping off to sleep.
Clark lays back on his pillow, Pete's words playing in his head. "Maybe I should ask her out..."
"Go for it man." Pete slurs out in his sleep.
Clark looks up to the couch and laughs softly to himself before turn on his side and draws off to sleep.
Chloe wakes with a slow start at the sound of crowing from the rosters on the Kent's farm, tired still after her long talk with Lois trying to make her open toward her feelings for Clark, with no success. She wipes the sleep from her eyes and groans at how early it still is.
"Lo, wake up..." Chloe moans as she reaches over to shake Lois but her hand feeling only an empty spot beside her.
"Lo?" she says not seeing her there and gets up, walking to the bathroom down the hall, seeing it's empty too.
Chloe rushes down the stairs to the living room, where Pete still lays asleep on the couch...but Lois wasn't the only one who was gone missing.
"Pete...Pete, wake up!" Chloe says, gently pushing on his shoulder.
He sits straight up, his heart pounding away in his chest. "What?...What is it?"
"Opps...sorry Pete, didn't mean to scare you."
"Oh, morning Chlo...What's wrong?" Pete asks in a tired voice as he rubs his eyes open.
"Nothing really wrong..." Chloe says and shrugs. "...just seem we have a couple stole aways."
Pete turns his head down to the floor to see a messy sleeping spot but no Clark. "Let me guess Lois wasn't in bed when you woke up either?"
Chloe nods her head as Pete quickly scrambles to his feet. "The Break!"
"What?" Chloe asks confused, still a bit sleepy.
"The Break...who's going to do it first, kiss the other, remember?" Pete says grabbing on his shirt, he already wearing sweatpants.
"Oh, Right!" Chloe says remembering now. "I checked the house they're not in here..."
They both turn their faces toward each other a place coming to both of them. "The Loft!"
Pete and Chloe soon find out they chose correctly as they come near the loft, they hear loud shouting coming down to them. They could see Lois and Clark facing each other by the banister, looking very pissed.
"This doesn't look good..." Pete says to Chloe who had to agree as she looks up at the two with a concerned expression on her face.
"You ask...and you laugh at me when I tell you!" Clark says angrily as he glares at Lois.
"Oh come on Clarkie...are you really so surprised?' Lois smirks, standing there defiantly, her arms folded tightly over her chest. "How did you expect me to react!"
"Then why ask?" Clark shouts. "...and is it really so hard to believe that I might have feelings for you?"
"Yes!" Lois shouts back. "Plus the fact you asked me on a date is pretty unbelievable too!"
Clark lets out a growl as he takes a step toward her. "You're unbelievable!" he shouts, shaking his head. "You act as though you don't feel nothing toward me!"
"Oh, I'm feeling something toward you all right...annoyance!" Lois smirks sarcastically as she also takes a step, closing up the space between them.
"That's not all you're feeling...so admit it!" Clark says loudly, clearly angry.
"Stop telling me how I feel cuz you don't have a clue!" she barks back even louder, not letting him over run her. "There is no way something like this could even happen, it's just not possible!"
Clark lets out a huff, as he turns away from her and shakes his head. "Not possible to happen or you just don't want it to happen?!"
"Both!" Lois replies straight away as she glares at his back.
"I don't believe you." he says as he turns around to face her.
"Too bad, because, believe it or not...it's the truth Clarkie!"
Clark runs his hands through his hair in frustration. "Damn it, will you let up with that name already!"
"Something else that's too bad for you...Clarkie!" she smirks sarcastically, aggravating his nerves and knowing it fully.
"Lois stop it!" Clark demands.
"Or what?" Lois smirks, narrowing her eyes. "What are you possibly going to do?"
"Something I should have done a long time ago..." he whispers, his face softer now but holding a determined expression. "...please, don't smack me."
"Wha-..." Lois didn't get to finish asking before Clark, steps toward her erasing the space completely between them and in one swift move wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her against his body.
Lois stands there, her hazels glued into his blues, frozen in terror and shock of what was going to happen next, which she knew all too well what was on his mind. She places her hands on his chest trying to push away before it came to that, but for some reason she had no strength to do so. It was like as if his body with just a feel against him, had claim hers as his own, not that she was complaining inside, god why did this feel so amazing.
"If you dare do what I think you're about to do...I swear..."
"You talk too much..." he says and smiles widely as in one quick move that if Lois would have blinked she wouldn't have seen as he captures her lips deep and passionately.
Lois squeaks against his lips, she so couldn't believe he was doing this, her brows disappearing in her hair by his act. She tried to fight, god knows she did, even if it wasn't much of a battle, though inside she would like to believe differently. Her eyes gave in as they closed, followed by her lips returning his kisses back just as deep and hungrily against his juicy mouth, as her hands gave in too as well as her whole body.
Chloe bumps Pete side with her elbow, their eyes not once, breaking or blinking from the sight atop the loft; Clark hugging Lois to his body, his hands resting on her hips as she had her arms wrapped around his neck and their lips continued to know each other more heatedly.
Pete reaches into his pocket pulling out the bill he bet Chloe with and without looking away from the two he hands it to a wide smiling, smugged face Chloe looks over to Pete, catching his eyes and smiles who returns the smile back knowingly.
"See, I told you it would happen...it was just a matter of time..."
Pete nods and looks back up at the took who were now starring dreamily into each others eyes, off in a daze, as their foreheads touched and rested against each others.
"Yea, you did...remind me never to bet against you again." he jokes, laughing lightly as he received a playfully tap from Chloe who walks out the barn with her arm draped around his shoulder leading him out as well to give Lois and Clark some privacy.
"I feel this is only the beginning for those two..."
