A/N - I do not Smallville or the rights to Superman. They fall to Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, whom created a superhero who has stood the test of time.

The Truth is Out


The Kent's Barn

It had been about an hour since the incident and Lois was still waiting for an answer from Clark, who was sorting out the bails of hay that he had inadvertently set alight with his heat vision.

'What the hell came out of Clark's eyes, was he affected by the meteor rocks, like so many in Smallville have been.' Lois thought to herself, it had freaked her out when it had happened. Everything she thought she knew about Clark Kent had just been basically been turned on it's head.

Lois - Smallville those bails of hay look fine to me, now can you please tell me what the hell is going on?

When Lois called Clark by her pet name for him, he froze and looked at her. She saw uncertainty in his eyes, he was afraid of what she would think of him after he had told her the complete truth about himself.

Lois - Has this got anything to do with you being infected by those green meteor rocks when you were younger, because if that is the case then I need to know about it.

Clark shook his head, he knew that Lois would have thought that he was one of them at first. It was the most logical answer there was, seeing how Smallville had seen it's share of them. It would've been easier if he let her believe that, but he didn't want to lie to Lois about it. She did at least deserve the truth about it all.

Clark - I can understand why you would think that Lois, but I was not affected by the meteor rocks.

Lois let out a sigh of relief at what he had just said, but she knew that it went deeper than that. It was big enough, that he didn't tell Lana about it for some reason.

Clark - Chloe told you about the first meteor shower right, how it destroyed some parts of Smallville when it hit the planet.

Lois nodded when mentioned this, she knew that the first shower had caused the first batch of meteor infected freaks to appear and now she was worried that the second one had caused the same thing to happen again.

Clark - Well when that first shower hit the town back then, that was when I arrived in Smallville for the first time in my life.

Clark had now lost her altogether, what he said had confused her all the more. She knew he was adopted by the Kents, but she didn't understand his words though.

Lois - What do you mean when you say that you arrived in Smallville for the first time when the first meteor shower hit?

Clark - Exactly what I meant Lois, actually I meant to say that it was the first time I arrived on this planet not just Smallville.

Lois had just begun to process what he had just said, she was speechless by the admission. Clark was worried by her silence, it then turned into an awkward silence that they both hated.

Lois - So are you telling me that you are actually an alien from another planet, because if you are then all I can say is WOW.

Clark - That's what I am saying to you, and that's my biggest secret I have. Now before you ask me anything else about it, can I tell you everything about my origins.

All that Lois could do was nod in agreement, she was still in shock that this was Clark's big secret. He then proceeded to tell her everything about Krypton, him being raised by the Kents, who the only people to know his true heritage were, and about why people were infected by the Kryptonite for and what it was.

It was a little to much for Lois to take in and that Chloe actually knew about this and never told her about it. She knew the loyalty between her cousin and Clark was almost comparable to that of Mr and Mrs Kent.

Clark - Now you know who I really am Lois, that I'm not actually your run of the mill farm boy from Smallville.

Lois - You have the audacity to tell me this, after your eyes brought up hell literally in front of me. You also tell me that there is predominantly more people infected by your home planet than there is of you race left. If the incident didn't happen would you have still told me about this, or would you have tried to hid it like with Lana.

Clark had expected her to ask about if he would have told her about his heritage, but he wasn't expecting her to mention about Lana and that threw him for a loop almost.

Clark - I would have told you about it, that what the argument between me and my dad was about. He didn't want me to tell you about it, but he eventually gave up and said it was up to me to decide.

Clark sighed as he finished saying what he had said, he was very nervous about it all. He knew that he had a difficult time ahead of him with telling Lana, but he hoped that it would all work out for the better.

Clark - I wasn't planning on telling you about it until I broke off my relationship with Lana, but now that has been screwed up ain't it?

Clark let out a little laugh, and he turned to see Lois looking at him in a peculiar way. He was now getting scared at the look in her eyes, he saw anger and then understanding in them.

Lois - Clark I'm sorry that this how you planned it but nothing ever goes the way it does, there is always some bump in the road. That doesn't mean that you aren't the same Clark Kent as you were before you told me your big secret.

Clark hearing picked up someone let out a gasp, as Lois finished what she was saying. He then used his x-ray vision to see who it was and when he did he smiled at the blonde halfway up the stairs.

Clark - Hi there Chloe, how long have you been standing there on the stairs for?

Clark asked and he saw the look on Lois's face was one of complete shock, when she her cousin slowly come to the top of the stairs with a sheepish look on her face. She then quickly covered herself with a blanket, that what was on the couch.

Chloe - Only about a minute or two, enough to hear about you planning to break it off with Lana. Then Lois saying about your big secret, so I take it you told her about it then?

Lois - He didn't actually have a choice after he nearly burnt down the barn with his heat vision.

Chloe - Isn't you're heat vision usually caused by you getting sexually aroused, or something like that. So what did you do Lois to get him like that?

Lois shook her head in surprise, Clark had not told her what triggered certain powers. Only what ones he had and as she looked at his face, she could she him blush at this.

Clark - It's something that Lois is wearing and in my defence I had only expected to talk with Lois in her normal night attire, not what she is wearing.

As he said this, Lois showed Chloe the attire in mention, and Chloe put a hand to her mouth to stop from laughing out loud. She now understood what had caused his heat vision to go off earlier.

Chloe - Lois Lane, I thought I told you to wait until after he broke it off with Lana and here you are, ignoring my advice and making Clark nearly bur down the whole barn in the process.

Lois - Yeah well to the last part, in my defence I didn't know he could to that. Now in correspondence to the first part of what you said, I just wanted him to hurry up and tell her it was over between them.

Clark was now surprised when he had heard this, it was a shock that Lois wanted him to end it with Lana as fast as he could. He then decided that tomorrow was the day when he would tell her that it was over.

Clark - If you two would excuse me , I need a drink. Oh and Chloe since you're the one who brought up what causes my heat vision I'll let you tell Lois anything else she needs to know about my powers.


A/N - Okay that's Chapter 14 done only one more to do.
