A/N: ok, I have NO idea if Whitney was supposed to go to Kansas State, but,
let's just pretend that he's just a lucky non-senior who receives a full
scholarship AND a placement in the school. (just P-R-E-T-E-N-D!) So, in the
story, (I no, I'm messing it all up, but I need this story to end up
Lex/Lana!) Whitney will have to leave to go play football soon. (its kinda
unexpected, just like when he decides to join the marines, which is how I
got the idea anyways. and PLUS, I needed a way to get rid of Whitney)
ALRIGHT, enuf with my babbling, and onto the story..

'oh my gosh! Was that supposed to happen? Did I really say that I loved him? Let alone, he said he loved me back?'
Lana's head was full of thoughts, as she walked over to Whitney's locker.
"Hey!"
Whitney looked up and hugged his girlfriend "Hey Lana! I'm so sorry that I missed your birthday. So, how was it?"
Lana grinned, remembering the night before. "Well, not counting the fact that you weren't there, I had a great time. How 'bout you? I'm dying to hear about yesterday's tryouts."
Whitney paused, and gave her a huge smile. "I got the scholarship!!"
Lana smiled, "Oh my god! That's great!!" She went over and gave him a big hug with a huge grin on her face. He kissed her.
"I know! But, Lana, we seriously need to talk about this."
Lana's face expression changed into a serious one. "Why? What's the problem?"
"Come," Whitney said, grabbing her hand. He led her outside to the football field, and they took a seat in the bleachers.
"What's wrong Whitney?" she asked, again.
"Lana, I really want to take this scholarship. I mean, this is a great opportunity for me! But, they also asked me to attend their school. I really want to, but..." he looked over into her eyes, "Lana, what about us?"
Lana looked down. She hadn't really thought about this before.
"I don't know. I mean, we're not going to be able to see each other that much.."
"That's what I was thinking. I'm going to have to go to Kansas State at the end of this week. I don't know why, but I always get this feeling that one of us is going to meet someone else." He looked up at her again. Tears of guilt started to form behind her eyes. 'I already have' she thought.
Lana said quietly, "So, is that it? We're breaking up?" 'don't cry, don't cry' she thought.
"I don't know. This isn't new for me." He didn't know what to do. Lana was his first love. "We'll still be friends..really really good friends."
Lana turned to her side, and started to cry on him. They just sat there. When Lana was almost done, Whitney spoke up, "Let's go." And they walked back into school.

Lana was heading to her next class, when Chloe caught up with her.
"Hey! You're not looking to good today.." Chloe already found out about her and Whitney, but she tried to pretend that she hadn't.
"Hey Chole. Yeah. I'm just having a really bad day."
"Is everything okay?"
Lana looked down at her feet, "No, not really. Whitney and I just broke up. Word usually goes around fast. I'm surprised that you haven't heard about it."
"Ooh. I'm sorry. Is there anything I can do?" Chloe offered.
"No, it's alright. I'll be fine. I just need some time alone."
"Oh. Well then, I guess that's my cue," and Chloe left.

It was lunch period, and Clark was waiting for his two best friends. He saw them walk over.
"Hey guys. Ready for another day of lunch?" Clark asked sarcastically.
Pete put his hand on Clark's shoulder. "Wait a minute there buddy." Clark turned around.
Chloe spoke up, "Haven't you heard? Lana and Mr. Jock Strap broke up this morning." Clark's jaw dropped.
"Is she okay?"
Pete joined in, "Well, Chole talked to her in the hallway this morning, and she said that she wasn't looking to good. But, this is your chance, Clark! Miss Lana Lang is finally single." Clark couldn't help but to smile. He looked for Lana in the cafeteria, and spotted her. She wasn't looking good at all.
"I'll talk to her later. She doesn't look that happy."
"Talk about it. Whitney was her first real 'love', give her some time first." Chloe stated.
Then the trio walked over to the lunch line, for yet another day of lunch.
