Chapter 8

Lois woke up the next morning knowing that she was going to have to go and see Clark today. Lois pushed off the covers and walked over to the kitchen to turn on the coffee maker. After that she started the shower and turned the water up so hot that the paint on the wall started to sweat. After 2 hours, Lois' longest shower to date, she put on a towel and headed over to her closet.

"Now, something sexy or something sweet"said Lois aloud.

"I would go with something sexy"said Chloe

"I didn't know you were here. When did you get in?"asked Lois

"Turns out I didn't have to go in today, its next Saturday when I have to go in to work"said Chloe.

"Oh"replied Lois.

"So trying to seduce Clark Kent?"said Chloe with a smile on her face.

"NO! Would that help me?"asked Lois, who was desperate.

"Lois, no, that wouldn't work. You really love him don't you?"asked Chloe.

"Maybe. I don't know, but what I do know is...that I do love him"replied Lois.

"Well I'm glad that you can say it out loud now, but as for your clothing deliema, I would go with your usual jeans, boots, a nice jacket, but for fun, I would wear that black, low cut v-neck shirt"said Chloe walking out of the room.

"Thanks"yelled Lois.

After Lois got dressed, she spritzed on some perfume, and gave herself a once over in the mirror and walked out the door and over to the man she loved.

The Kent Farm...

Lois got to the farm in record time, 15 minutes flat. She had timed herself. Lois walked into the loft and saw Clark fixing a post in the barn. Lois had to stop and stare at Clark, the way his shirt rised up as he stretched his arms for a yawn.

"Hey Smallville"gulped Lois.

Clark looked over at Lois, she looked beautiful, as always, but she had the lowest cut shirt on in the world, and Clark couldn't help his hormones, he had to glance at Lois' chest at least once.

"Hey"said Clark.

After a few minutes silence Lois and Clark blurted out at the same time,"I'm sorry".

"I really didn't mean to snap at you Lois"said Clark.

"Its okay Clark, I understand that Diana is just your friend, and I know how overprotective you are of Chloe, and I. That's just how you are with your friends, and the people you care most about"said Lois.

"I am, and it just hurt to hear you say that I would just go and be with another woman so quickly after Lana's death"said Clark.

"Oh, so you don't want to date anyone right now...at all?"asked Lois

"Actually I do, but I don't think I can right now, she's seeing someone"said Clark.

"Who is this woman Clark?"said Lois stepping closer to him.

"Her name is Lois Lane, and I'm madly in love with her, but she doesn't know that"said Clark with a smile on his face.

"Well this Lois Lane charcter is pretty stupid. If she can't see what an amzing person you are Clark, and how your love would fill her heart, and give her more happiness than she has ever experienced in her life, then she doesn't deserve you"said Lois.

"Lois what about A.C.?"said Clark stepping closer to Lois.

"I only did that because when I saw you kiss Diana, I felt as if my heart was...was"said Lois trying to finish her sentence.

"Your heart was being ripped out"said Clark finishing Lois' sentence.

"Exactly. Clark when A.C. and I went out last night, things got pretty heated, but I couldn't stop thinking about you. I mean I really couldn't stop thinking about you"said Lois, whose cheeks were starting to turn red.

"What do you mean by really?"said Clark who was standing right next to Lois.

"I sort of moanedoutyourname"said Lois very quickly.

"I'm sorry what"said Clark, who had heard everything she said, but wanted to torture her.

"I said I moaned out your name"said Lois.

"Really? Well I have to say, I do have quite an effect on you"laughed Clark.

"Don't get all cocky on me Smallville"laughed Lois.

Clark put his arm around Lois' waist and pulled her right up on him. Clark leaned in ever so slowly, that Lois grabbed his head and smashed their lips together. Clark put his other arm aroud Lois' waist and Lois had her arms around Clark's neck, soon they were leaning against the barn door for support. Lois wanted to gain entrance into Clark's mouth even more, so when when Clark gave her what she wanted, their kiss turned into a very heated make out session. Clark's lips soon found Lois' neck, and Lois threw her head back in pleasure, but wanted to taste Clark again, so she pulled his face up to her's again.

After another intense kiss, Lois and Clark pulled apart so they can catch their breath.

"Wow"said Lois.

"Wow is right"said Clark.

"So Clark now that were together, what are you gonna do about that Lois Lane girl?"asked Lois smiling.

"I guess I'm going to have to let her go, because everything I've ever wanted is right in front of me"said Clark.

Just as Lois and Clark were about to go in for another kiss, they heard someone clearing their throat.

"Um..sorry to interupt"said Diana.

"It's ok Diana. How are you?"said Lois.

Diana looking at Lois a little shocked, said to her,"I'm fine Lois, and I'm happy for you and Clark".

"Wait you knew we were going to get together?"said Lois.

"Well, I could tell the minute I saw you two that you were meant to be"said Diana.

"Well I don't know about meant to be, but it does have a nice ring to it"said Lois.

"Yeah, it does"said Clark.

"Well I came here because of the caves Clark. You said 2:30 correct?"said Diana,

"Oh, right"said Clark.

"Lois I promised to help Diana with an enviromental report for Queen Industries, do you mind if we continue this later?"said Clark.

"No problem Clark"said Lois giving Clark a kiss on the lips and waving Diana goodbye.

"So you ready to get started?"asked Clark.

"Yep"said Diana.

"Well I have some drawings of the cave up the stairs. Now I had to draw them, so don't laugh"said Clark.

Clark passed Diana his drawings, when Diana busted out laughing.

"I'm sorry, there so adorable. Its like a little kid drew these"said Diana.

"Thanks"said Clark sarcasticly.

"Ok, down to work"said Diana.

The Kawatche Caves...

Dr. Richards had been working night and day, trying to develop a serum to stop the effects of the heat vision. Little did he know, is that Lex knew the doctor would never come up with the serum, so Lex was planning to use the doctor as his next test subject. Lex decided this because he could tell that the doctor was starting to lose it, and tell someone about his experiments. So, Lex, decided to visit Dr. Richards for the last time, well the doctor's last time as the ''doctor".

"Mr.Luthor, I didn't see you there"said a nervous Dr. Richards.

"No need to be scared doctor, so how is the serum coming along?"asked Lex.

"Mr. Luthor, I have tried everything known to man, and I'm still not getting anywhere"said Dr. Richards.

"Then don't think like a man, think like these aliens"said Lex.

"Mr.Luthor there is just no way to do this, its simple, shut down this project. Some mysteries can't be solved and some questions will never be answered"said Dr. Richards.

"I respect your opinion doctor, so that's why, I won't be needing you as my doctor, but as my new test subject"said Lex, who called in his guards.

"I beleive if there is a question, there is an answer doctor. Take him away"said Lex.

"No, Mr. Luthor, please. NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"screamed the doctor as Lex's guards dragged him away.

Lex pulled out his cell, and after the third ring he said,"Yes, I need Dr.Cain to come and see me asap."
