Chapter Nine
"You ran inside a burning building?" Chloe and Oliver said at the exact same time several hours later.
Michelle cringed. She knew she would get lectured for doing that, but she had expected it to come from James not her mom and her mother's new husband. She looked down and nodded.
Clark Kent bit his lip. He felt bad for Chloe's daughter. She had not been in the past long, and already she was beginning to act like a young Chloe. He coughed.
Oliver and Chloe stopped talking and looked at Clark. He motioned for them to go outside the room so he could talk to them.
They went outside and began to speak. "Do not be so hard on her. She just got back from the future, and she saved my life."
The married couple closed their eyes and took a deep breath. They had been worried for her, for years they had been separated and the first thing Michelle did was endangered her life.
Silence passed for a several minutes.
"So I am going to get Connor from school and bring him here. He is going to want to meet his sister," Chloe said.
Oliver told her not to go. He told her she needed to be with her daughter.
Clark sighed as he listened to them argue. "I will go get him and Jason. I am sure they will be happy to meet her. I am glad that Michelle is here. It is a good thing Brainiac found a way to keep her po…"
His voice trailed off. James walked toward them. "Where is Dr. Hamilton? Michelle wanted to know if she could have some headache medicine."
"He should be in the kitchen getting something to eat. That's the second door to the left," Oliver said.
James smiled. "Thanks."
Chloe and Oliver grinned at each other.
Clark gave them a confused look. "What?" He asked.
"We will tell you later. Now go get Connor and Jason," Chloe told him. Clark super sped to the car and began to drive.
Oliver touched Chloe gently. "Now I believe we have some explaining to do to Michelle," he told his wife. He kissed her gently on the lips.
She smiled. Oliver took her hand and together they went into the room that Michelle was in.
"So… will you tell me why I could not find any record of you, mom?" Michelle asked shyly.
"Well, dear, I recommend you get nice and comfortable. It is a long story," Chloe replied.
Connor and Jason walked in the room with Clark. They gave Michelle a hug and they spoke for several minutes.
Chloe coughed and began to tell her story. She could remember everything that had happened like it was yesterday…
Okay. I know that this chapter is short, but the next couple of chapters are going to be a visit to the past.
