Surrounded by thin soft clouds, Diana floated, her senses were at their peak as she searched every corner of the otherwise, unidirectional space of air.

She looked left.. then right.. behind and above her, he was nowhere to be seen. Then suddenly,

Right

The swift colour of red and blue appeared before her. It was too fast for a human to counter but Diana wasn't an ordinary human, no, she was a demi-goddess.

She tried to grab his arm but failed, instead he flew immediately towards a different direction. She wasn't going to lose sight of him anymore and so she flew after him, making sure she doesn't lose him.

"Gotcha"

It was all too quick for her to comprehend that he has taken hold of her. She couldn't allow it that she struggled using all the strength she could muster

"Give up Diana" he said, struggling as well to keep hold of her," I've got you"

"Give up?" she continued to resist," you don't know me at all"

With all her power, she has managed to break free at last and with that, she grabbed hold of him from behind, taking advantage of his surprise she held her strength… for as long as she could.

He tried to struggle of course, to the best of his ability and finally, he broke free from her and… kissed her.

She pulled herself from him

"Kal!" she shouted, "I thought we were having a serious training!"

"Diana we're in our honeymoon," Clark countered," aren't we supposed to be relaxing?"

"Wasn't it your idea in the first place?", she replied, "you were the one who said that we should go flying"

"Exactly" he said, "I said we should go flying not training"

"But given the circumstances with the battle before the honeymoon I thought it was becau-"

"Because it seemed to be a bright and sunny day"

Clark might not know how to win an argument with his wife but he does know how to silence her in petty arguments. He saw her blushing of embarassment and decided to dissolve the red from her cheeks with a kiss.

"Still" he brushed her hair back," did you enjoy it?"

"Enjoyed being embarassed?" she raised an eyebrow, "I dont think anybody is suppose to enjoy that Kal"

"I'm sorry I thought you knew" he defended himself," besides you were the one to jump into the conclusion"

"Being raised as a warrior all my life, I was taught to think things fast and independently"

"Diana this is different"

"Maybe"

Clark knew from the start that he and Diana mightve been the same in some ways but they also had their differences: Diana has always been composed about everything, thinking things thouroughly and making sure that everyone around her is safe, as the future queen of Themscyra she was taught this way, and this resulted in her always being wary of her surroundings and always expecting the worst. Clark, on the other hand, is a person who grew up with passion he recieved from his parents allowing him to see the good in the world. Their difference might have been big but this was what made them compatible together, why they belonged together and Clark understood that. That was why he promised himself that he would give Diana passion and make her happy because he knew Diana deserved to be treated as a young princess that she truly is- a princess whose world does not revolve around threats, battles or war but a princess whose heart would always laugh- and Clark would like nothing else but bring her this.

They continued to float in the middle of the clouds, taking in every moment of their wonderful day.

"Diana?" Clark began brushing her hair back behind her ear," you're the princess everyman has been dreaming of and so I have to ask why me?"

Why him? That was one of the questions that Diana found difficult to answer, not because she doesn't have the answer but because she had a million reasons and she couldn't pick just one. Diana tried hard to search for the one perfect reason but her mind boggled as she searched for it.

"Diana?"

"Kal I love you a million times and probably a million more but my heart cant seem to pick one rea-"

Wait. That's it. Its not the perfect answer but the true answer. She loved him for a million reasons and a million more but the one that stood was…

"Because whenever I'm with you, I can be whoever I want to be"

"And what's that?"

"A young woman deeply in love"

Clark smiled and kissed her forehead, "you're right. You don't need to be anybody but yourself, that's one of the things I love about you Diana, you think independently on your own and you don't allow others to cloud your judgement"

"I might be but I cant think about everything on my own, I need you"

"And I'll always be with you" he took her hand and kissed it.

She pulled him closer to her and sealed their love with another kiss.

As the couple walked through the old town, Clark reminisced all of his time as a child in this town: the way he would run from shops to shops, the way his father would buy him his favourite cocoa from their cafes and the way his mom would buy him new clothes. Nothing has changed in the town.

"Clark!" a voice from behind him appeared

Clark turned around to see his friend, Lana. Her red hair swayed as she ran towards them, waving her hand.

"Lana, hi" Clark greeted

"You disappeared from the reunion," Lana accused," where did you go?"

"I had some small business to take care of, sorry"

"Nice to see you again Lana", Diana put out her hand to Lana

"Nice to see you again Diana" Lana shook her hand," how are you finding Smallville?"

"Very pleasantly"

"I'm glad"

The sight of his childhood friend and his wife getting along made Clark very happy.

"Say would you like to get a cup of coffee with me sometime?" Lana asked Diana

"Gladly," Diana replied, "what time would suit you?"

"Anytime, I'm usually free these days since I'm on holiday right now"

"Why not now?" Clark interjected

The two women stared at Clark's suggestion

"I mean if you don't mind since I just have to pop into the hardware store to buy some stuff and probably meet up with some old friends of my parents and I don't think Diana would be interested in coming along"

"You don't mind me not coming with you?" Diana asked her husband

"It's fine," Clark said with reassurance, "you'll probably be bored coming with me anyway"

"If you say so"

"Great. Lana?" Clark turned to Lana who stared at the couple as they spoke

"No problem" she smiled

"Then I will see you ladies earlier"

He kissed Diana goodbye and set off towards the hardware store.

Diana and Lana sat inside a café that, according to Lana, has stood as one of the strongest and most popular spot in Smallville Town. The wall beside them highlighted important people in Smallville all through history: from the founders, past great mayors and small town heroes. Smallville might've been small but it held a massive history, Diana thought.

"So tell me," Lana started while sipping coffee from her cup, "how did you and Clark meet?"

"How did I meet Clark?"

"Yeah"

Diana and Clark had thought of different stories to tell people how they met since they couldn't exactly tell them they met because they were both in the Justice League.

"Clark flew to Greece to follow up on a story," she began, "and it happened to be near my hometown and after that we met and began to know each other, dated for the two months he was there. When he was about to come home, I decided to go with him since I was planning on moving to America anyway"

This wasn't a total lie. Problem arose in Themscyra involving Ares and it was too big of a problem for just Wonder Woman and so she asked Superman to help the Themscyra people and her. After Superman agreed to come, Clark Kent asked to follow up the story concerning the wild riots occuring in Greece against the politicians- an act of Ares to fuel a war. In the end they were successful in stopping Ares but they lost a lot of casualties due to this.

"So you're from Greece?" Lana asked

Diana nodded

"I knew you were European or something"

"Is it too obvious?"

"No, its just that your face is different from what I'm used to seeing"

Diana smiled

Afterwards, Lana talked about her and Clark and their time in highschool together. Diana found that Lana had kept a lot of precious memories of Clark and her together. With that, her deduction was right

"I'm sorry,"Lana paused," I kept talking about stuff you probably know about Clark already"

Stuff she knew about Clark? That was doubtful since even she knew she doesnt know a lot about her husband. They've been together for 3 years, dated in that 2 years but their time in the Justice League prevented them from grabbing moments together. This thought saddened Diana more than ever.

"Diana?" Lana leaned down to peer over Diana's face who was staring at the table

"I'm sorry," Diana broke off from her trance," no, I'm glad to hear these storiesm from you as well"

That was a lie. That was the first time she ever heard of those stories.

"Besides, I'm happy that a person like you seem to care about my husband"

"To be honest?" Lana tightened her grip in her mug," I used to have a crush on Clark"

"And you still do"

Lana gave out a surprised look to Diana.

"I-I-" Lana stammered

"Its okay," Diana touched Lana's hand, " I can understand your feelings"

"How did you know?"

"Intuition?" she answered with a question," Actually its because the looks you expressed when we appeare before you are the same looks I'm very familiar with. They were the same looks of a girl in love, a sign of infatuation"

"Thank you for understanding," Lana smiled with gratitude, "I'm glad he ended up with a kind person like you"

Diana tightened her grip in Lana's hand," I have to ask, why didnt you pursue him before?"

"Actually I did," Lana looked down on the table, embarassed," I was faced with rejection"

"I'm sorry"

"No! I'm really glad knowing that you are the person Clark has been looking for"

"Been looking for?"

"Yes" Lana began," you see when I confessed my feelings to him..."

Clark stood in front of Lana, his hand rubbing the back of his neck.

"Lana," he began," I appreciate your feelings, I really do"

"But?"

"But I dont think I am the right guy for you"

"Why not?"

"It's- It's just that I'm not a worth it guy for you" he tried to explain uncomfortably," There's a guy waiting for you out there and I'm definitely sure that once he has found you he will be the perfect guy for you and it will be worth your wait"

"Just like how you're looking for yours?"

"…"

"It's just not me" Lana's tone was quiet, sad

"I'm really sorry"

Lana placed her hand on his cheek and gently rubbed it, "It's okay Clark, I'm sure you're perfect woman is waiting for you out there and once you do, I'm sure she will be very… lucky"

"You're very lucky Diana" Lana turned to Diana

"I know" Diana smiled, "I know"

As Clark drove from the town towards their house, he noticed Diana who stared at the window, deep in thought.

"Honey?" he touched his wife's hand, "are you okay?"

She turned around, her expression displayed confusion, an expression that highlighted she was just pulled from a deep thought

"Yeah," her face then smiled, "never better"

"What did you and Diana talk about?"

"Secret" Diana shook her head, "it's a secret"

Secret?

Lucky. Diana could not express the word enough because it was that word that described what she truly was and will always be as long as Clark is with her. If Clark, in some way, is lost from her she didn't know what she would do. That was her greatest fear.

After they've arrived in their house, Diana closed the door behind her and immediately turned towards her husband

"Kal?"

Clark turned around to face the concerned voice of his wife.

"What is it?"

"I told you why it was you I picked and fell in love with" she reminded him, "but you didn't tell me why you picked me"

That was a question Clark couldn't answer with just one sentence, just like his wife, because he admired Diana for many things but he thought that the main reason he wanted her was…

"Because you're the person my heart has been looking for" he explained.

He moved closer to his wife and took her hands.

"I love you because I love you. My heart wanted you, I wanted you. It's as simple as that"

"As simple as Smallville?"

"As simple as Smallville"

Diana leaned to kiss her husband. A passionate kiss that told Clark she understood his heart and what it meant for her.

Hi guys! Here's Chapter 4! I'm sorry it took longer than I thought for it to be up but this is my longest chapter yet!

Anyway, I highlighted in this chapter the reason for each of Clark and Diana's feelings for each other. To be honest this is one of the hardest chapter I've ever done( even though its only been 4 chapters) due to this. I thought hard about this from a lot of different reasons and these are the best I could see. Though I would definitely expand on these more later in the story

So I hope you like this chapter and would continue to look forward for more

Thank you again for reading! Your reviews are much appreciated

Next Up: Diana makes an unpleasant encounter, one that could create disagreement between her and Clark
