Leap of Faith Chapter 8

David-El: Thank you I'm glad you're enjoying the story. I don't think Darkseid is going to make an appearance but there is going to be a one or two villains. I hope I don't let you down.

Gladius Grim: Well I figure sense half the team has dated Lois at one point or another they wouldn't mind too much.

LoisNClark4Ever: I hope I got this next chapter out quick enough for you. Clark will be shirtless again soon. Hope you enjoy this chapter.

I own nothing!

"I'm the blur"

That was not how he wanted to tell her but he was too excited to wait. Now he stood in her door way dripping wet from running in the rain. Knowing these next few moments would change his life forever. Her face became filled with worry.

"Clark come in I think you're sick, you think you're the blur" she grabbed his hand and led him over to the couch. She sat him down and checked his temperature putting her hand to his forehead. Clark tried to stand up but Lois pushed him back down.

"Lois I'm fine and I really am the blur and I can prove it if you give me one second" He tried to get up again but Lois pushed him back down.

"Clark your delusional and soaking wet let me get you some towels" Lois headed to the other bathroom and grabbed some of the dry towels.

"I don't need those Lois I can dry myself off with my super breath" Clark was smiling at her now. He might as well enjoy telling her.

"Sure you can Smallville" Before she could get to him he took a big breath.

He felt his lungs start to fill he kept filling his lungs until they were full. Then he slowly let out his breath. It was enough to dry him off and whip all the papers around the room into the air but he was careful enough not to damage anything. He also didn't add any cold to his breath he didn't need Lois getting sick. After Clark was completely dry his eyes came up to meet Lois's.

Her eyes narrowed "What's the trick?" Lois walked around Clark giving him a look up and down looking for some kind of magic device.

"There's no trick Lois, I need you to believe me, please" his eyes pleaded with her. He stopped her walking around him holding her shoulders making her look him in the eyes.

"How can I believe? I mean your Smallville you milk cows you don't save people. I mean you do have a hero complex and you always seem to be in the right place at the right time. But that doesn't mean anything. Does it?

Clark listened to Lois ramble on and on. He didn't know what to do so he closed his eyes. What would Lois do? Whatever she did she wouldn't think about it first. Clark smiled and did the first thing that popped into his mind.

He scooped Lois into his arms "Uhh Smallville what are you do-"Clark super sped them to the loft. "-ing. Whoa" Lois hair fell back into place. Her eyes went wide and she jumped out of Clarks arms.

"What did you just do?" Lois looked at Clark.

"Well one beautiful and smart reporter would say I just blurred from your living room to my loft. But I would call it a short jog" Clark smiled and Lois frowned.

Lois opened her mouth then closed it again. She repeated that process several times. Clark waited for her to say something, but when several minutes passed he decided to be spontaneous again. He lowered his lips to Lois's barley touching his lips to hers. "Lois Lane is speechless? I better take advantage of this while I can" before she could reply he lowered his lips to hers.

It was a kiss in which Clark put it on the line. He was afraid she would turn away reject him. But she didn't when she kissed him back Clark felt the weight of the world lift off his shoulders. He wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her off the ground twirling her around in the air.

She giggled as the pulled apart her face turned into a scowl. She poked him in the chest. "Don't do that!" she poked him again.

"Do what?" He backed up and put his hands in the air. A look of innocence on his have.

"You can't kiss me when I'm trying to figure out how you're the blur. Because when you kiss me my brain stops working, which makes thinking even harder" she poked him in the chest harder. "Ow" she flexed her finger.

Clark's face grew serious "Are you ok?"

"Geez Smallville chill out" She laid both her hands on his chest. "Wow so you really are a superhero huh?" she ran a hand through his hair.

"So you're ok with this?" He needs to make sure she was handling everything before he let her in on the whole truth. He didn't want to overwhelm her.

"Clark you're amazing you telling me this is amazing" She frowned "I'm not the first person you told huh. I bet Chloe knows" Lois turned around and walked away from Clark crossing her arms over her chest a subconscious way to protect herself. "And Lana"

Clark sat in the chair by his desk and thought about what to say; finally he looked up at Lois's back. "My best friend Pete was the first one to know my secret I had to tell him because he found my… something that belonged to me. It was a relief when I told him I had someone to talk to. But he left because of my secret. Chloe found out on her own she saw me use my ability's; she didn't tell me she knew at first not until her life was in danger. And Lana" Clark saw Lois go stiff he tried to find the right words. He didn't want Lana to come in between the two of them.

"Lana found out when she tricked me. She trapped Chloe in the wine cellar at the Luthor mansion and saw me get her out. Then on her wedding day I told her the truth about me I felt like I had to stop her from marrying Lex. She did anyways, but don't you see Lois everyone I told either found out or I felt like I had to tell them"

Lois turned around her face emotionless. "And me?" Clark stood up and walked towards her. She looked her straight in the eye so she knew he was telling her the truth.

"You? I've never wanted something this much in my life. It was like you not knowing is me not being complete, and I haven't told you everything" Clark walked across the room to the large window of the loft. He seemed to spend half his life in this spot staring off into space. Space. It was time to tell Lois.

Lois was quiet she didn't know what to say. She was the only person Clark felt the need to tell without being forced into it. She smiled she really did love this man. "Clark whatever it is you can tell me, I love you"

Clark shook his head and smiled. "I wouldn't say that until you hear the rest of my story" His smile faded and he looked lost.

"Clark Kent I will not have you start brooding on me you got that?" She walked over and punched him in the arm. "Besides I don't give my love to anyone and if I say I love you then it's going to take a lot more than being meteor infected to change my mind"

Clark winced. "Yeah about that I'm not affected by the meteors. That thing of mine Pete found well it was kind of my space ship" Clark held his breath. He heard Lois irregular heartbeat, but he didn't dare look at her.

If Lois's mind was buzzing before now it went into hyper drive. She started to remember things she tried to forget. A spaceship in the dam, a crazy dream where she was on another planet, the day of the second meteor shower when these weirdo's were looking for someone named- "Kal-El" it was a whisper lips but Clark heard it.

His eyebrows shot up his eyes wide with surprise. "How did you" he left the question hanging in the air.

"Oh a girl hears things" She smirked then stood on her tippy toes and kissed him. "Tell me everything"

"Okay where to start. My planets name was Krypton…" she listened to him talk taking in every word they sat in the loft for hours talking, no secrets no walls. It was a perfect moment just between the two of them.
