Here's the next one, and guys, please, pretty pretty please, REVIEW!!!
Elena had gone back to bed after her friend left with the handsome visitor, no matter how she had said she felt fine, as soon as she was alone she was able to admit to herself that she was a little tired and decided to take a short nap. Her breathing had finally settled down to allow for a restful sleep when two sharp knocks woke her up. She took a deep breath and cracked her neck before getting up. Two knocks again.
"Going¡Cuándo por fin decido dormir, ahh!" She mumbled in frustration as she made her ways towards the door.
She opened the door and found Clark in front of her, his arms full of her friend and a doggy bag from the café down the street.
"What happened?" She asked as she made way for him to come in. He carefully placed the bag on a side table before proceeding to put Lois down on the couch. Elena hurried to help him by putting a pillow to support her head. They both stared down at her position on the couch, her head and torso were fine, but her long legs looked uncomfortably bent.
They looked at each other and nodded. "The bedroom" Said Elena "I'll go get some alcohol to wake her up, was the food that bad?" She headed into the bathroom to look for the first aid kid.
"The fire must have taken a toll on her too, she just passed out." He fibbed then bent down to pick her up again. One arm firmly under her knees, the other supporting her back, he leaned back a little to have gravity place her head against his chest and he walked towards the double bedroom the girls shared.
He felt her waking up and sighed with relief. He couldn't help but feel apprehension with the whole situation, for starters Lois wasn't one to faint so easily, at least not in the time that she had known her, and he knew it had to do with that tattoo and the whole little magical number it was playing on them. He didn't know what to expect, and hence had no control over it.
"Get me down." Her voice was low but there was strong determination behind it. She tried to wiggle out of his grasp but he didn't give an inch.
"You should know better to even try Lois." He muttered as he entered her room. She did, but knowing and actually experiencing the knowledge were two totally different animals. She felt as if his arms were strong metal braces, she couldn't even budge; yet they were soft enough to not hurt her. So much power, in him, was not only astonishing, but also scary.
He placed her down on the bed. As soon as she felt free she sat and tried to get up. He held her down to a sitting position.
"Lois." He warned. Her level of stubbornness always amazed him.
"No Clark, A bomb was just dropped in my brain, I deserve to ask you a couple questions, don't you think? Yes I now know some stuff, but I don't understand half of them. Like your name, Kal-El? What does it mean? And Krypton? Where the hell was that?"
He could tell she was confused, he had been when he had found out a third of what was in her head, that and the fact that she had called him Clark twice that day made him back down.
"Fine, I'll clear any doubts you have, but first lay down, at least 10 minutes, okay? We have no idea how any this can affect you." Genuine worry filled his eyes, touching a dormant fiber in her heart.
She thought back for a minute, a silently agreed with him. This whole situation had thrown her out of the room, caused her to faint twice, and took away her sleep with recurrent and unexplainable dreams. A nap sounded nice. But should she let him know she agreed with him. Where would the fun be in that? Besides, she was still hungry.
"How about I eat something, then we talk." She managed to cross her arms once he had loosened his grip on her, causing him to let go altogether.
"Okay, wait here." He walked out and came back a couple seconds later with a doggy bag of the café. He had thought of everything.
"Now go away, I'd rather eat alone for now." She could easily take a short nap after eating without him noticing. She could eat really fast when she wanted to.
Clark shrugged and walked out, closing the door behind him. He walked into the sitting room only to find Elena curled up on the couch, fast asleep. Good, he had to talk to Chloe, or Joe, or anybody that could clear everything up. He walked out of the suite, closed the door and sped back home.
"So as I was telling her my secret, she suddenly knows everything. This doesn't seem to be going away, if anything it's getting stronger." Clark sat across from Chloe and Joe, who had just made back into Smallville for just that.
"But you can control it, it was your decision to tell her that triggered the knowledge aspect in the symbol. After a lot rummaging through my older books I finally found this." Joe placed a book in front of them. "It confirmed what I told you Clark. This was a one time deal, the magic was never repeated."
"What does that mean?" Chloe asked, baffled, yet honored to be included in the conversation.
Clark was afraid of the answer.
"It means that it was meant for a specific couple, not just for anybody who came in contact with it." Yep, that was the answer he was afraid of. "It also says that the answer is within the riddle. Has this young lady said anything unusual?"
This is Lois, anything that comes out of her mouth is unusual. He thought before he could come up with an answer.
Smallville!!!! Lois' voice thundered in his head. She heard that? What now!!!
Kal-El or whatever!!! She sounded mad.
"Wait, I understand how it can be meant for you Clark, but Lois? Why her? Clark?" He was lost again. "Is it Lois?" Now both Joe and Chloe watched him intensely.
What is it Lois? He asked Did you hear what I just said?
Who gives a damn what you say or who the hell you are talking to, I need you here right now. Her bossiness was borderline, even for him.
I can't I'm with Joe and Chloe, they're helping us, remember?
Fine then, I'll take a picture and send it to Chloe by cell then.
A picture? What are you talking about?? But she didn't answer.
"Lois is going to send something to your phone." He turned to Chloe. She pulled out her cell phone and waited.
There I sent it, can you please tell me what it is? Her tone softened somewhat.
Wait, she hasn't… beep, beep There it is, hold on.
Chloe opened her phone and opened her message. She blinked twice. A picture of Lois' chest took up the whole screen. She handed it to Clark.
"It's for you."
He looked at it and immediately saw what she had been yelling about. Above the symbol on her chest, just to the left was a series of smaller symbols.
"I don't know what it is, it's not kryptonian." He handed it over to Joe.
"No, it's not. It's old Kawatche symbology" He looked up at the two young people in front of him. This wasn't good.
Lots and lots of reviews please:)
