Review Comments:
A,sky - Thanks! That shower scene set the Lois and Clark tone for me going forward, haha, loved it.
LoisNClark4Ever - That scene in Devoted, I swear, she could have asked him to jump off a bridge and he would have, haha. Not that it would have hurt Clark very much or anything, but he just looks bent to her will, haha. That was what I was thinking for Pete's next chapter, probably something when he meets Lois and realizes everything Clark said is true, minus the hate. Haha. That is a certainly funny idea, I'll have to look into it!
sunset - How could you not be provoked by Lois Lane? haha. That chapter is soon, I promise. I think Pete left so that Sam Jones III went to do other projects, but I don't know for sure. It was written like the actor left, not like it was the story of character.
clarkfan325 - Haha, thanks!

Summary: A series of 'Kill me or Kiss Me?' moments. Jo'an belongs to the wonderful
Chapter: #25, Easter
Author's Note: Well, not much to say. This one is about the Easter Holiday, which isn't meant to offend anyone who doesn't celebrate Easter. It's mostly just the Easter Egg hunt thing, and for anyone offended just remember one thing, rabbits don't lay eggs...
"Junior! If you use your x-ray vision one more time, I'm going to-"
"But I wasn't!"
Lois locked her knee and put her hand on her hip, shooting her daughter a glare.
"Ok..."
Clark chuckled from the kitchen. He loved days like this. Chloe and Oliver had come over for the Easter Egg hunt, Jo'an had made them both presents at school and wanted to give them their presents on the day of Easter. "Thats what makes it special, Daddy!" she had explained.
Her x-ray vision had come in a few weeks ago because as Kara once told him, "Girls mature faster than boys, Kal-El," he recalled with a grimace.
It had helped in regards to Boogeymen in the closet or under the bed as she could check for herself, but it made explaining why Mommy and Daddy were wresting a little difficult. Jo'an had a nasty habit of rushing home to check on her mommy. Clark had a nasty habit of being seduced by his wife.
"I swear, Smallville, the kid is as bad as you are."
Clark's head shot up. "What?"
Lois gave him a 'don't-even-try' look.
"What are you talking about?"
Lois gave him an exhausted look. "Like you don't use your x-ray vision inappropriately all the time."
His jaw dropped.
"When do I use my x-ray vision inappropriately?"
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe when you're drooling-
"I don't drool."
"-all over your desk when we're at work? Maybe when you need a file from the very bottom drawer that I need to bend all the way over."
"Those are important documents, Lois."
"How about that time you said that Diana hurt your back in a sparring session and you made me change that lightbulb?"
"I don't use my x-ray vision on you, Lois!"
Now it was Lois' turn to have her jaw drop in shock.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
Everyone's head shot up at that. Oliver had a small smile, he knew where this was going. Chloe looked confused, but one look at her partner, she realized the situation at hand. Clark was confused as hell. Jo'an just had chocolate smeared all over her face.
"Wha..."
"Are you saying that you don't find me attractive enough to peek at?"
Clark was speechless.
"I may have birthed a child, Clark Kent, but I still turn heads."
"Lois, of course you are attractive, you're the most beauti-
"I will have you know that I get hit on damn near everyday."
Clark frowned. "Who hits on you?"
"Why do you care? Apparently, I'm not even desirable enough to peek at, Smallville."
In the living room, Oliver and Chloe were in awe. They didn't know how these two did it. They seemed to be able to turn the simplest things into a bickering match that constantly promised fireworks. Jo'an had just started to realize that her parents were fighting.
'What? Chocolate is gooooooooooood,' she thought to herself.
"What's going on?"
"Well Joey, your father is painting himself into a corner."
Jo'an wrinkled up her nose. "What do you mean?"
Seeing Lois backing Clark into the corner of the kitchen with one hand on her hip and one hand poking Clark in the chest, Ollie chuckled.
"Either he is going to have to admit that he's been checking her out-"
"Which Mommy would like."
"She would, normally she'd like it a lot and want to kiss him, she wants him to think she's-
"Ollie," muttered Chloe, warning him about what he might say in front of their niece.
"...pretty. But uh, he would have to admit to peeking at her, so she might kill him."
"Oh..."
"Or he's going to have to keep denying it, which means she's going to kill him because she thinks that means that he doesn't think she's...pretty."
Jo'an thought about it for a moment. "Daddy is a dead man."
Author's Note: I liked that one, haha. Short and sweet? I wanted it to be longer, but I like the way that it flowed and I wanted to end it on that line, so we didn't really get a chance to see the end of Lois and Clark's fight. But hey, maybe we'll see it from another character's perspective in a later chapter!
Hope you like it, shoot me a review!
Next Up: Christmas Eve.
