Chapter 13 - Dinner

Clark was nervous. No, scratch that. Clark was incredibly nervous.

It's not every day you get to meet the family of your girlfriend.

It all started a few hours ago, when Sarah came over to him and told him that it's finally time to meet her uncle and aunt. At first, Clark was excited. He wanted to meet the people Sarah really cares about. But on the other hand, he felt rather nervous. He was afraid they wouldn't accept him. Of course, he wouldn't tell them about his alien heritage, but he knew sooner or later, he would have to tell Sarah the truth.

Because if he wanted a good, lasting relationship with Sarah, he knew he has to be honest with her. Whether it is about something as simple as his favorite color, or something as important like the fact that he is a super-powered alien.

So, that's why he's in his room right now, sitting on his bed, trying to decide what to wear so that he would look acceptable, as well as what to say to her family. He wanted to make a good first impression.

„Clark, you look really nervous," said his mom as she came into his room. She knew he was going to meet Sarah's family. She liked Sarah very much, and she knew Clark adored her. A lot.

Clark looked at his mother, with a look of exasperation on his face. Well, that's what it looked like to Martha. „Of course I'm nervous, mom... I'm meeting her family.. what if they don't like me? What if I make a bad first impression? And truth be told, I want to be honest with Sarah. I really do. But I don't know if she's ready to learn about the.. alien part of my life. Or if she'd accept me after learning the truth..." said Clark.

Martha sat on the bed next to him and put her hand on his shoulder.

„Clark. You just have to be yourself. You are a great person. A good person. Sarah sees it, and I'm sure her family will see it as well. And about the alien part... it's your choice. You can tell her, but you don't have to tell her. Just remember, that no matter what, me and your father will always stand by your side. Okay?"

Clark looked at his mother and hugged her. The hug looked a little weird, since they were sitting on his bed, but it warmed Martha's heart nonetheless. He is her little boy, and he is always going to be her little boy.

„Well, and it wouldn't be so bad if you brought them something. And I know just the right thing," said Martha as an afterthought. Clark just chuckled.

Sarah was excited. Clark was finally meeting her family! Well, the part of the family she cares about, anyway. It warmed her heart to know that the most important people in her life are finally going to meet each other.

It was now 5:50 PM and Clark should be arriving soon. Of course, she felt rather nervous, but she figured it wasn't anything bad. She still had that feeling like someone was watching her, but she learned how to ignored it.

She went downstairs to the kitchen, where her uncle and aunt were cooking dinner together. It never ceased to amaze her how they are completely in sync with each other, as well as how they are still in love, even after all those years. Of course, she was sad that they couldn't have children of their own, but they always told her that she is basically their daughter, and they love her like their own child.

Her uncle looked at her when he heard her footsteps and smiled.

„Hey, sweetheart. When's Clark going to come?" asked uncle Frank. Sarah looked at the clock again. 5:55 PM.

„I told him to come here at 6 o'clock. He's always on time, so that shouldn't be a problem," said Sarah. She then proceeded to come over and prepare the table. She didn't even finish it when there was a knock on the door.

Must be Clark.'

She came over the door and opened them, seeing it was Clark. She scanned his body with her eyes, marveling at his physique. She'd never get tired of it. He was wearing a black shirt with his sleeves rolled up, along with dark blue jeans.

„Wow, Sarah. You look amazing," said Clark as he hugged her and kissed her cheek. It looked rather funny, as he was a foot taller than her. Literally.

„Hey, Clark. You don't look so bad yourself," she said as she winked at him a little. Clark blushed.

Farmboy.. cute farmboy, though,' thought Sarah with a smile.

She then noticed he had something in his hand. She didn't have the chance to ask him what it is, because right then, her uncle came over to greet him.

Uncle Frank looked a little surprised at how tall and muscular Clark was. Based on everything Sarah told them about him, about his personality and so on, he thought he would be a little... he didn't want to think the word uglier, because it sounded too harsh.

Frank extended his hand. „Hello, you must be Clark. We've heard a lot of things about you," said Frank, while Clark shook his hand.

Frank was a guy in his 40's, with the exactly same eyes as Sarah, dark brown hair, which had a little gray in it already, and was around 5'11". What surprised him, but shouldn't, was the warmth in his eyes.

Clark smiled. „Hello, Mr. Wilson. Nice to finally meet you," said Clark.

Frank smiled. Well, he has manners, that's a good thing.

„Please, call me Frank. Now, come, the dinner is almost ready."

They made their way into the kitchen, where he met Sarah's aunt, Arianna.

„Hello, Clark. I'm Arianna. Nice to finally meet you," said Sarah's aunt. Clark shook her hand as well. Arianna was a beautiful woman, also in her 40's, with blond hair and brown eyes, which radiated the same warmth as her husband's. She was somewhere around 5'6 in the height department, just a little taller than Sarah herself.

Clark then remember he still had the gift he brought them.

„Uh, I didn't want to come empty handed, so I brought you this. It's my mom's apple pie," said Clark as he gave the pie. It was wrapped in a foil, so that it would survive Clark's speed, although he was going much slower than usual, since Sarah lived only a few miles away from the Kent farm.

Arianna seemed a little surprised at this, but her look of surprise quickly changed to look of delight, and she smiled. „That's very kind of you, Clark," said Arianna.

Clark noticed the dinner wasn't ready yet, so he offered his help, saying his mother taught him how to cook ever since he was a young boy. Arianna quickly accepted, while Frank and Sarah were preparing the table and talking quietly.

„He seems nice," said Frank. And truth be told, he truly does. He didn't come empty handed, he offered his help and he has manners.

Sarah immediately smiled. „He is nice, uncle Frank."

Meanwhile, Clark was also talking with Sarah's aunt while helping her with dinner.

„So, Clark, what do you like about Sarah?" asked Arianna while looking him in the eyes. Of course, she liked Clark the moment she met him, he seemed like a good boy.. or should she say man? Ah, never mind. He seemed like a good boy, but she also knew that looks can be deceiving.

So she decided to ask him a few questions, just to determine his character.

Of course, Clark immediately figured out that it is a test. And he decided to answer honestly.

„Well, she's stubborn, funny, teasing, she is incredibly strong, she's very smart, and in my eyes, she's.. perfect," said Clark.

Arianna could see the way his eyes brightened when he talked about her niece, and she knew he was telling the truth.

„Well, Clark.. it seems you have passed my test," smiled Arianna.

About 10 minutes later, the dinner, consisting of mashed potatoes, vegetables and steaks, was ready to be served. After they all sat down, Clark sitting right next to Sarah, of course, they started eating. Clark wouldn't be Clark if he hadn't waited before everyone else started eating.

„Wow, this is really amazing," said Clark after a few seconds. Arianna immediately smiled, and Frank got that proud look on his face Sarah knew all too well.

They started talking then, about everything. Then, the metahuman subject came.

„Clark, what do you think about the metahumans?" asked Frank.

Clark put down the fork and the knife and put his hands on the table. Everyone could see that Clark thought about it. Frank expected him to say that he hated them, since one of them attacked him in his home not even two weeks ago, but his response surprised him in a very good way.

„I don't have anything against them. It's not their fault they have these.. superpowers.. but I'm very glad most of them decided to help ordinary people. I admire them. A lot of people hate them, but they still help them when they need it. Of course, I know there are some metahumans which are bad.. case in point, Killer Croc," said Clark with a little smile, but Sarah could see that he didn't have that teasing sparkle in his eyes. He was serious, „but we can't judge all of them because some of them decided to do bad things. Some of them want to live in peace, some of them want to do crime, some of them want to help people. What do you think?"

Everyone was silent. Clark looked at Sarah and saw she was grinning at him with a proud look on her face, while Frank and Arianna thought about what he had said.

„I agree with you, Clark," said Frank after a few seconds, with a smile.

They continued to talk about everything. Clark talked a lot with Sarah, and both Frank and Arianna saw the looks on their faces when they talked to each other. Frank and Arianna looked at each other, both of them wearing a knowing smile.

The dinner then went very smoothly, Clark even helped with the dishes, though Arianna told him that he was a guest. Still, he insisted.

Sarah decided to talk Clark out, and of course, her uncle and aunt agreed, since they wanted to give them some time alone.

As they went outside, Clark looked at her, and was surprised when Sarah kissed him gently.

„What was that for?" asked Clark after the kiss. Sarah smiled and pulled him closer to her.

„For you being you," answered Sarah with a smile. She then hugged him tightly.

„I guess you have to go now, right?" mumbled Sarah into his chest. Clark held her a little tighter, though he did answer her. „Yes."

They said their goodbyes and Clark made his way home. After coming home, he noticed his parents watching TV in the living room.

„Hey, guys," said Clark as he came into the living room and sat on the couch next to his parents with a smile on his face. Of course, his parents noticed his smile.

„I take it that it went well?" asked his dad, as he looked at him. Clark just nodded.

„They are good people," said Clark. Nothing else needed to be said.

Lex was angry, though he didn't show it to anyone. It's been almost 2 weeks since he sent Croc to fight the Kent boy, and it's also been 2 weeks since Croc was arrested. Croc was one of the most powerful metahumans they had, and the Kent boy was able to defeat him and not having a scratch on him? There was no way he wasn't a metahuman. He had to be. There is no other logical explanation.

But Kent is not even an adult yet. Lex is a powerful person, but he still could have problems from experimenting on a teenager. And he didn't think Dr. Hamilton would like it, either. Lex knew Hamilton was wary of him, he's known ever since he assigned him to work with the metahumans. He wouldn't want to experiment on a 17-year-old boy.

He will keep tabs on Kent. And one day, he will get his hands on him.

Sarah went to sleep with a soft smile on her face. She was extremely happy her aunt and uncle approved of Clark, and that they liked him. The thought that Clark liked them made her even happier.

Though, that would change soon.

Not even an hour after she fell asleep, the window of her room slowly and quietly opened. Inside came a man with dark clothes with a needle in his hand. He came over to Sarah, and slowly, he put the needle into her vein.

After he was sure that the drug worked, he gently picked her up.

„Hello, babygirl."
