Last chapter of the "Lucky" storyline!


"I'm really glad that you could come" Diana hugged Lana as she approached their table

"I'm glad you called me" Lana smiled

The café was almost empty during their meeting, there were only about three to five people, not including her and Lana. Normally, Diana preferred having empty meeting places than busy as she thought the noise disrupted her talk yet in this case, she would've preferred the place to have been busier because she thought that others would be more privy to their conversation especially since it was only them that had company from each other.

"How have you been?" Diana asked

"Quite good actually," Lana replied, "work has been going really well and since the reunion, I've been meeting up with old friends, which is fun"

"That sounds brilliant"

"It is and," Lana hesitated for a moment, "to be honest I've been seeing someone for a while now, actually"

"Really?" Diana wasn't surprised, Lana was a beautiful woman and it wasn't surprising that boys would go after her, "that's brilliant"

"It is" she smiled

"What's his name?"

"Donald"

"What is he like?" at that point, Diana started to sound like a concerned interrogator

"He went to the same high school with me and Clark," she began, "but he wasn't in the reunion so you wouldn't have met him. He was actually my old high school boyfriend"

"What made you two break up?"

"It's complicated, "she told him, " you could say we both had differences of opinion"

"I see" Diana decided not to divulge into the matter deeply as she feared she might accidentally tug something she shouldn't.

"If you need any help you know you can come to me right?" Diana asked her

"I know," Lana smiled, "and thanks"

Diana smiled back to her. She wanted to be there for her friend but she knew that she should leave some things alone until Lana is prepared to tell her herself.

"Well enough about me"!" Lana cut the silence, "how about you? How are you? How's Clark?"

"Well," she told her, "we're both well, we both have just been busy with work and keeping the farm afloat."

"I see," Lana took a sip from her coffee, "even though Clark quit his job, I guess keeping the farm alive is still tough, especially if its only you two that have been working on it"

Clark had told Lana before that he had quit his job in the Daily Planet. His decision to quit the Daily Planet was both a relief and a shock to Diana. She remembered how Clark complained that the once noble newspaper he had been working for had become a corporate material that forgot its purpose of chasing after truth with passion. She understood his decision and with that, she supported him throughout.

"It is," she agreed, "but hopefully, we manage to come through"

"Exactly what I admire about you two," Lana commented, "Although knowing Clark I bet you've had some hard times trying to convince him to let you help him right?"

"How did you know?" Diana was stunned. That was exactly the reason the two have gotten into arguments

"Since high school, Clark has always been stubborn about everything," Lana explained, "he wouldn't allow others to help him, he felt that he might be troubling others if he did. It's not as if he needed them though, he was strong and independent enough on his own. In fact it was him that helped the others. You could say he was…. A kind of a… hero"

Diana slightly chuckled at the thought. It seems he has always been like this then, she thought

"Although once you start a family, I'm sure Clark would make it easier for the both of you," she drank her coffee, "I could only guess he would spoil you and maybe a kid when that happens"

"Huh?"

"I'm sorry" Lana stammered, afraid that she might've said something unnecessary, "did I say something wrong?"

"No not really"

"Oh that's relief but" Lana paused for a moment then began, " you and Clark have been married for a couple of months now, have you ever thought of starting a family?"

"Actually…"

Diana was silent for a moment and drank her coffee, thinking about the irony in Lana's comment. Lana noticed Diana's silence and deduced the news herself.

"Are you?" Lana stared at Diana, wide eyed

Diana nodded. She had been meaning to break the news to Lana but it seemed as if Lana have deduced it herself. She was glad at Lana's expression and knew that her friend was happy for her and Clark. Lana jumped up and hugged Diana, causing the small number of people in the café to turn their heads. Both Diana and Lana apologized to them.

"That is fantastic news!" Lana continued to exclaim, "How did Clark take it?"

"He's excited," Diana laughed, "very excited actually"

"I bet! You two will make such good parents" she exclaimed, "Congratulations"

"Thank you"

"So what are you planning right now while waiting for baby Kent?"

Diana giggled at the words "baby Kent", where she imagined what the baby would look like- a little Kal perhaps. On the other hand, with problems occurring with Doomsday and the Kryptonite, the couple began discussing their options…


"When do you think we should leave for Metropolis?" Diana asked as she poured coffee for her husband and set it down the kitchen counter where he sat

"It's probably best if we go sometime this week," Clark replied, "possibly the day after tomorrow"

"That soon?" Diana didn't expect their leave to be so soon and it saddened her to think she was leaving Smallville, even for a small amount of time. She has only stayed in Smallville for a couple of months but she fallen completely in love with everything in Smallville.

"I want us to return as soon as we can because…" Clark sighed

"Because?"

"We need to go to Themscyra to tell your mother and sisters"

Diana didn't reply for a couple of minutes. She knew that when her mother sent her to the Man's World to be an Ambassador of Peace between Themscyra and the Man's World, her mother never expected her to enter a relationship with a man. This became a disappointment for her mother when she learned that Diana and Kal were dating and in a relationship which put them into bad terms with each other soon after. When Diana married Kal, she couldn't find the time or courage to tell her mother until they finally set off in their honeymoon.

"Diana I know your relationship with me is the reason why you and your mother hasn't talked about anything but business for the past two years," Clark began, "don't you think it's time to tell her that we're married, especially since we also have to announce that she's having a grandchild?"

"It is not that easy Kal," she told him, "Even though I came here with Steve to gudie and help me, my mother sent me to the Man' World expecting me to follow the tradition of any Amazonian warrior- to not get close to any man.

"Diana you were sent here, where thousands of men resides," Clark reasoned, "I'm sure you're mother has thought about the possibility of you being in a relationship"

"But not falling in love," Diana argued, "and definitely not having a baby," she sighed, "Kal I'm not afraid of my mother or confronting her about our marriage, but I am afraid of seeing her disappointed face. She has been through so much and I could only hope that once I tell her about the baby, she would be happy"

Clark saw the sadness in Diana's eyes. He knew that Diana's strength came from her mother's love and teachings but he knew it also came from Diana herself- her willingness to become strong to protect her people. Clark sighed." Regardless, she's your mother and she deserves to know". He lifted her chin so he could stare into her bright blue eyes, "I'm sure she will understand… sooner or later. Besides, I will be there with you"

"You're right" Diana rested her head onto Clark's chest

"Also," Clark hugged his wife, "since you're not afraid about confronting her about our marriage, then I'm sure we will be okay together"

Diana pulled away from Clark, "Kal, I want you to know that although my mother might find our marriage a disappointment and possibly a source of hatred to you, I have never considered our relationship a mistake. It's the best thing that has happened to me"

"I know Diana," she brushed the back of her head, "I know"

"On a different note," Diana pulled herself away from Clark once again, "where will we be staying in Metropolis?"

"Probably my old apartment with Jimmy"

Diana was silent, this piqued Clark's curiosity, "what is it?"

"I have never really liked your friend" Diana admitted

Clark chucked, "I know he can a pain sometimes but he's a genuinely nice guy"

"He annoys me"

"I know but my apartment is the only place we could stay in Metropolis," Clark told her

"Fine" Diana sighed, "but the second he annoys me I will-"

"Don't worry," Clark calmed her, "I'm sure he'll behave this time, I mean after the reaction he got from you the last time you met. Clark laughed at the memory but Diana was not pleased and punched her husband by the shoulder for allowing her to remember about the memory.


"I see"

Diana has explained to Lana that she and Clark were leaving the next day due to businesses left behind by Clark in Metropolis. Diana saw Lana's sad face and her heart was touched by the expression left behind by Lana by their temporary departure.

"But we will definitely be back since we have decided to raise the family here"

"I'm glad you think that Smallville is the best place for you to raise your family"

"I have only been here for a couple of months but I have grown accustomed to almost everything here in Smallville and with it, I have enjoyed my stay here by the Kent Farm and everyone in Smallville"

"But what about your family in Greece? Wouldn't they mind?"

"I'm currently not in good terms with my family in Greece" Diana told her

"Oh… I'm sorry for bringing it up"

"There's no need for you to apologise," Diana assured her, "besides, Clark was just telling me to go talk with them, especially with my mother"

"Diana", Lana put her hand over Diana's, "your mother raised you and turned you into the wonderful woman you are now. And now that you're going to become a mother yourself, your mother is the only person in the world who you could turn to in these kinds of situations"

Lana was right in every aspect of her advice and Diana was glad that she had a friend with a wisdom that helped her get through it.

"Send my regards to Clark" Lana asked Diana

"Thank you for everything Lana" she hugged her

"I'm really happy that you're my friend Diana and I do hope that you and Clark return home here in Smallville, safe and sound"

"We will," Diana assured her, "we definitely will"


"I want to have the baby here in Smallville," Diana announced as she packed her clothes in her suitcase, "possibly here in the house"

"Are you sure about that Diana?" Clark asked, "I mean there's no problem about it but wouldn't you think it's safer if you have it in the hospital where there are proper equipment around?"

"What do you think will happen to the equipment around if it was me there during childbirth?" Diana argued

"Good point," he set down the empty suitcases, "but I thought you would want to have it in Themscyra, where you're most comfortable"

"I thought so as well," she continued to fold Clark's shirts, "but I'm also comfortable here in Smallville"

"Well what changed your mind?"

"A man of such passion as yours Kal, I have always wondered how you could be passionate about almost everything that you see as beautiful, because I know that those things are the reason you took the cape as Superman" she began, "staying here with you, I finally realized that along the teachings and love of your parents, it is also due to the environment you have grown up in. Smallville was built as a home it will always be a home. The perfect place for our child to grow up in"

Clark approached his wife and kissed her on her forehead, "you're wonderful you know that?"

"Why do you think I'm called Wonder Woman?" she joked

"Yes you're right" Clark laughed and leaned in to kiss her again but this time on her lips. Diana returned with a passionate kiss to her husband who held her tightly.

Diana then saw Clark took something out from his pocket, "Here, turn around"

She then turned around where they both faced the mirror. She observed her husband hang a necklace around her neck- a black string with a white small crystal hanging from it. The crystal was beautiful and shined brightly as the light reflected onto it.

"This crystal was with me in the space ship I was found in when I was a baby," Clark explained, "I looked everywhere for its use, I examined it along with the technology that was brought with me by my father but I found nothing. It wasn't part of any technology or space ship at all so I deduced that maybe it was just something from our Kryptonian home that was accidentally dropped as my parents lay me down in the space ship" he has finished putting the necklace on Diana, "From then on, I always had this crystal with me wherever I go to remind myself that I also had a home and family in Krypton"

"It's beautiful Kal" she touched the crystal

"And now that we're finally starting a family," he continued, "I want to give this to you as a commemoration of the beginning of our family and also, because you are now my home, Diana"

"You are my home as well Kal" Diana leaned to kiss her husband then rested her head on his chest.

"Are you happy?" Clark asked her

"Ecstatic" she kissed him again then stared into her husband's blue eyes, "I'm happiest when I'm with you and now that we're starting a family, our lives could only be happier and better"

"I will make sure of that Diana," he looked at his wife's smiling face, "seeing you happy is enough to brighten any day for me."

Clark then gave out a despairing sigh. He remembered the dangers that both of them would soon face "I will protect you. I promise you"

I have no doubt that you would Kal," she placed her hand on his cheek, "but you have to remember, that the only thing that could ever ever hurt me greatly is losing you. Without you, no happy days can ever come to me anymore. Your promise of protecting me can only happen if I know that you yourself will always be safe. Please remember that"

Clark was deep in thought for a moment then stared at his wife's concerned expression, "I will. I will always be with you"

The couple smiled to each other after which, Diana leaned to kiss her husband then told him, "I love you"

"I love you too"
