Chapter 5- John Walton
When Cameron got home that night, she was surprised to see that her dad wasn't home. There was a note on the fridge:
'Dear Cammy, I went back to Metropolis to finish cleaning out the house. I'll be gone for the weekend, and won't be back until Monday, for sure. I'm really sorry kiddo, but was an emergency. The new tenant wants everything out by Tuesday, or it's all bye byes. Call me on my cell tomorrow. Love Dad. P.S. There's $80 in the cookie jar for food, and supplies.'
Cameron sighed and got the money. She put it in her wallet and sat down on the couch. Before she could turn on the TV, the doorbell rang. Cameron went to the door and looked through the peephole. It was Clark. She quickly opened the door. Clark smiled and Cam had to lean on the door for support. "What are you doing here?" she asked calmly.
"Um, you forgot your jacket." Clark held up a black coat.
"Clark. I didn't wear a jacket tonight remember? That's Lana's coat," said Cameron as Clark blushed.
"Oops, I better get it to her then," Clark hesitated, and then turned to leave.
"Clark. " began Cameron. Clark turned back around to face her. "You knew that wasn't my jacket. Why did you really come here?"
"I. I wanted to check if you were ok, you know, that man, and the tiger are still around somewhere," said Clark blushing. Cameron reached up and gave Clark a kiss on the cheek.
"Thanks for worrying about me," she said before she closed the door and left Clark speechless. He smiled and practically danced all the way home.

That night, Cameron couldn't sleep. She was too busy deciding if she should tell Clark the truth. 'Things are going so well, I don't want to scare him away this early.' After much tossing and turning she finally gave in to the darkness.
That same night, Clark couldn't get to sleep either. He was really happy that things were going so well, but he would have to wait a while longer before he could trust Cameron with his secret. Finally, after much thinking, he fell asleep.

The next day, Cameron was busy unpacking when the phone rang. " Hello?" she asked when she picked up the receiver.
"Hi, Cameron, this is Chloe. I was wondering if you wanna come see a movie with Pete, Clark and I? I haven't asked them yet but I'm sure they'll say yes," said Chloe. Cam smiled, it was only her second day there, and already she had great friends, all thanks to Clark.
"I'd love too." Answered Cameron.
"Great, I'll come pick you up in an hour. See ya then." Cam hung up the phone and sat down on the couch. 'I love Smallville.'
~*~
When Chloe arrived, Clark and Pete were already in the car. Cameron sat in the back with Clark and smiled. "So, Cam, Clark tells me that you guys encountered the tiger, and a very strong, probably meteor infected, man in a mask last night?" asked Chloe.
"Turn off your tape recorder, Chloe. They don't want to be on the front page of the Torch," said Pete. When they reached the theater, there were only two movies playing, a chick flick, and a horror film. "Okay," said Pete. "Let's vote." Everyone but Chloe voted for the horror.
"I'm sorry," said Cameron. "I can't watch another chick flick."
Chloe frowned. "But you're a chick!" Everyone laughed and went into the theater. Chloe agreed to the horror film and they went to the ticket stand. There was a new employee standing there. His eyes widened as he saw them approaching. " Hi," said Chloe. "I've never seen you around before." The boy tried to smile.
"I'm John Walton, I just moved here yesterday." He reached up to scratch his head and his sleeve fell down his arm revealing a huge cut. Clark gasped, but kept it to himself.
"Oh my gosh!" said Chloe. "What happened?" The boy shrugged.
"Car accident," he said. They bought their tickets and walked passed the booth. Clark was overwhelmed with pain and almost stumbled. Luckily, no one noticed.
When the movie was over, the gang went outside to the car. Cam and Clark noticed that the same white car from the night before was parked just beside Chloe's. They exchanged looks and they knew that John Walton was the man in the mask.
