Lana took a short breath, paused and then pushed again for the final time. Within seconds, the cries were heard and little Clark Lewis Ross made his way into the world.

Miles away from Smallville, Clark Kent leaned back in his Daily Planet office chewing on a pencil. He was nervous because Pete had called him earlier that morning when Lana had went into labour. He called Lois, and she headed to Smallville right away, but Clark had gotten stuck with an assignment at the planet and couldn't leave til three.

Suddenly the phone beside him rang and he grapped it as fast as he could. Clark's face broke into a smile. Lana had had a boy. He was fine, she was fine. And his name...was Clark.

Clark fought back tears as he said good-bye to Pete. She named him Clark. He went back to his assignment, a happier man than Pete might ever be.
