I do not own Smallville. Based on the scene in "Bride." Enjoy and, please, review. :)
Day 220: He'd be a fool.
Lois could not believe what was happening. She and Clark had been about to kiss and Lana had turned up. Of all of the times to turn up, why had she turned up then, at the very point when the relationship between Lois Lane and Clark Kent had been about to change.
She walked onto the porch and sat down, running her hands across her face.
"You ok?" She looked up and saw Oliver, as he walked over to her and sat down next to her.
Lois shook her head. "No, not really, but I have to deal with it, so you can go and join the party."
Oliver pursed his lips and remarked, "I know that I'm not one of your top confidants, but if you ever want to talk, I'm here."
Hesitated, Lois ran what she was going to say through her head, before beginning. "I'm just having all of these feelings and I don't know what they mean." She paused, then said, "I'm sorry, I can't do this with you. You're my ex-boyfriend."
"Lois," he said her name in a very gentle way, "we need to get past this. Let's pretend that our relationship never happened and that I'm just a good friend." He paused, then asked, "So, how long have you been in love with Clark?"
Lois stared at him. "What, what makes you think that it's Clark?" Their eyes met and they had an understanding, so she continued, "I guess I've only just worked it out. He and-we were dancing together and, there was a moment, when we were about to kiss…but we were interrupted and now I don't know what to do or how to act around him. I thought that he looked at me in that way, but compared to Lana, I'm nothing."
Oliver sighed, then remarked, "Lois, at some point, he is going to realise his feelings for you and if he doesn't…then it's his loss. He'd be a fool to let you go." He finished, in a whisper. When she turned to him, he smiled, but there was something else in his eyes which Lois saw and she wondered he had not moved on. What if he still loved her, when she in love with Clark?
