Chapter 7: Confessions
Lois Lane hardly slept at all that night. All she could do was think about that she almost kissed Smallville and all the reasons why she would do it, and why she couldn't do it. She was having a hard time figuring this whole thing out.
Lois woke up, after only sleeping a few hours, and was quite tired, but she had to go to work.
"Uggh!" Lois said as she woke up and buried her face into the pillow.
Lois slowly got up after a few minutes and dressed for work and headed out to the small kitchen in the apartment.
"Someone looks tired this morning." Chloe stated as a sleepy Lois walked over to the counter to pour herself a cup of hot coffee, in which Lois gave an evil glare to Chloe.
"Yep, defiantly did not have enough sleep from last night. So do you want to talk about what happened last night between you and Clark?" Chloe added.
"No, besides, nothing happened Chloe." Lois said as she took a sip of her coffee.
"Lois, look, I know that you and Clark only see each other as friends, and the thought of being something more would make you die, but-"
"Chloe, whats the big deal? I said nothing happened, okay? So drop it. I've gotta go to work, I'll see you later." Lois said as she left the apartment in a hurry.
"Well, I know that this was going to be hard when I came into it." Chloe said to herself as she took a sip of her coffee.
xxxxx"Crap, now Chloe is on to me now! Uggh, okay, just focus on your work Lane."xxxxx
---At the Daily Planet---
Lois and Chloe worked on their articles as they talked a little, as long as it wasn't about a certain farm boy, that is until Clark happened to come over to Chloe's desk.
"Oh, hey Clark." Chloe said as she finished up her article.
"Hey Chloe, Lois." Clark said.
xxxxx"Crap! He's here! Why does it seem like when I try to avoid him that he always seems to turn up anyway? Uggh!! I got to get out of here!"xxxxx
"Well I'll leave you guys to chat. I've gotta go and find those pictures that Jimmy made." Lois said as she made a quick escape to find Jimmy.
As Lois left, Chloe gave a weird look to Lois and Clark as Lois left to go find Jimmy.
Lois looked around finally found Jimmy at his desk uploading his pictures.
"Jimmy, good, you're getting the pictures up." Lois said as she stood by his desk.
"Yep, and there! There all up. But there's nothing here from the night we attempted to look at Lex's files." Jimmy said as he finished.
"Oh.."
Lois just stood there. Jimmy gave her an odd look like if she was still okay from the other night.
"Is everything okay Lois? Maybe you should of stayed home today."
xxxxx"Okay, I can't take it any longer! I am going to have to tell somebody or I feel like I am going crazy, not like that I am already! I obviously can't talk to Chloe since she is with Smallville. Yeah, that would be smooth, 'Hey Chloe I need to talk to you. I am falling for Smallville. Oh hey Smallville, your here with Chloe, so I guess you heard.' Ha! Killing two birds with one stone! But no way I'm I going to do that! That's like suicide! Crap, okay, Lane, Jimmy isn't that bad to talk to about this kind of stuff. He's a boyscout. He wouldn't tell anybody."xxxxx
"Lois, hey, are you okay?" Jimmy asked as he waved his hand in front of Lois's face.
"Yeah, hey, listen I need to talk to you. Like now."
"Okay..." Jimmy said a bit surprised.
"Not here. Lets go to the copy room." Lois said as she headed to the copy room with Jimmy behind.
--With Clark and Chloe--
"So what's it this time?" Chloe asked as if she already didn't know what it was already about.
"I think that I am starting to realize something, but I need to tell you something but you can't tell anyone, okay?"
--With Lois and Jimmy--
"Okay, Lois, what do you need to talk about?"
"I need to tell you something, but you can't tell anyone! If you tell this to anyone, you are, well wished that you didn't. I would usually go to Smallville and tell him this type of stuff because he is such a boy scout and I know that he wouldn't tell anyone my secrets, besides I can't tell him this. I mean I can't tell Chloe right now because she is talking to Smallville, but if I don't tell anyone right now, I feel like I am going to go crazy!" Lois said as she paced the floor back and forth.
--With Clark and Chloe--
"Okay Clark. You know that I would keep your secret, epically since I know your biggest secret of all."
"Chloe, I think what I'm about to tell you is going to sound a bit weird."
--With Lois and Jimmy--
"Okay, look Lois, you need to calm down."
"I can't calm down. I've never felt like this before! It scares me! I mean we are only suppose to be friends. That's it!"
--With Clark and Chloe--
"Well, I've pretty much heard everything that is on the weird list, so give it a try."
"Okay, well, I must of been blind all these years, because I can't imagine how I haven't seen it yet, probably because I use to revolve my life around Lana.
--With Lois and Jimmy--
"Why?"
"Because Jimmy...I just...I just can't. I can't take the chance of loosing him. He means way too much to me as a friend..."
--With Clark and Chloe--
"I'm going to take a leap here and guess that this has to do with another woman's initials are also LL?"
"That obvious?"
"Yeah, sometimes your just easy to read." Chloe added.
"Yeah, but I don't think that Lois thinks the same about me."
--With Lois and Jimmy---
"Look, I know that you and Clark are pretty good friends, but-"
"No Jimmy, if I tell Clark how I really feel, he'll probably think that I've gone loony. It'll ruin our friendship."
--With Clark and Chloe--
"Well, since Lois was the one about to kiss you, I think that she may share the same feelings for you."
--With Lois and Jimmy--
"But the way Clark is with you, I think that he may feel the same."
--With Clark and Chloe--
Clark stayed quiet and thought about what Chloe had just said.
"Look Clark, it was kind of a surprise when I found you guys in a almost lip lock last night, but I have seen it coming sooner or later. But I do see a certain spark when you two are together."
Clark smiled at that, but it quickly turned into a frown.
"But she's avoiding me.."
"Clark, my guess that Lois is avoiding you because that she is scared. She can't imagine loosing you as a friend. That's why she doesn't want to bring this whole thing up either. She is probably a little freaked out too."
--With Lois and Jimmy--
Lois stopped ranting and pacing. She stood there thinking what Jimmy had just said to her.
"Lois, ever since I saw you and Clark hanging out together, I knew that there was something between you two. I know that you may be scared to tell Clark how you feel, but how are you going to feel whenever you don't tell him how you feel? Do you want to take a chance to loose that? Don't you want to know what it would feel like?"
--With Clark and Chloe--
"Look Clark, I'm not saying that you should just automatically throw yourself at Lois, but you're going to have to tell her sometime."
"Yeah, but I don't know when or how I should tell her."
"Just tell her at the right moment. You'll know when."
--With Lois and Jimmy--
"Lois, I know it's going to take a bit of time to tell Clark this, but you'll know when the moment is."
Lois just stood there not knowing what to think. She had just confessed how she felt about Clark to Jimmy.
"Thanks Jimmy...for listening." Lois said.
"Yeah, no problem." Jimmy said.
--Clark with Chloe--
"Thank Chloe for listening. You're a great friend." Clark said as he stood up and saw Lois heading towards the desk.
"Well, I got some work to do back on the farm, so I'll see you around." Clark added.
"Okay, see you later Clark." Chloe said as she saw Lois coming towards the desk and Clark leaving the Daily Planet.
