A/N: I know, the last chapter was bad, and boring. But I had to get them to
Metropolis some how, and a romantic date seemed perfect. And I'm sorry it
took so long to post this chapter, I've been really busy lately. Ok, so
I've got two endings right now that I can choose from. One ends this story
next chapter; the other makes it go on for, oh, let's say. 4 more chapters.
Review and tell me which one I should do. Oh yeah, I just purchased a new
flame extinguisher, so thanks for letting me try it out. =P. Just a
reminder, this is MY story, and I can do whatever the hell I want to. ^-^
Enjoy Chapter 7!

Chapter 7- The Unexpected Case
Cameron shifted in her seat. Even though she had already been out to dinner, she was still incredibly nervous. She was incredibly aware of Clark next to her, just as nervous as she was. The movie they were watching was interesting but Cam didn't really care for it. She looked over at Clark, who was staring at the screen.
Clark tried to focus on the movie, but he had no idea what the plot was about. He was to busy thinking about when he should make his move. Cameron sigh and Clark looked over at her. She met his gaze, and they were locked. Clark began to move closer to her and she turned away blushing. 'Damn,' he thought. 'Too soon.'
'Why the heck did I do that?' thought Cameron. She turned to face Clark again, but he had already turned back to the screen.
They watched the rest of the movie in silence. When it was over, Cam and Clark both stood up. "That was great," said Clark. "It was really interesting." He had to think of a fast lie. Clark wasn't paying any attention to the movie at all. He hoped Cameron really didn't want to discuss it.
'At least one of us liked it," Cam thought to herself. She hadn't been paying any attention to it either.
They headed for the limo and Clark opened the door for her. "Thank-you Clark," said Cameron as she got into the backseat. Clark followed her and they were soon on their way. Once again, the two became nervous. A few times, Clark tried to steal a glance from Cam, but he never succeeded.
She had put all of her attention into thinking about telling Clark her secret. Hundreds of questions raced through her head. 'What if he calls me a monster? What if he sells me to a freak show? Isn't he to nice to do that? Is his niceness just an act? Does he already know? Is it that obvious? Would he tell other people?' Cameron started to get dizzy and looked over at Clark. He was already smiling at her, and she turned red.
All of a sudden she leaned over and gave him a quick kiss, and pulled away. By the look on Clark's face she couldn't tell if he was happy or not. Cam frowned and sat back down staring out the window. "Cameron. "said Clark. She turned around to face him again and he had a large grin on his face. He reached for her, and pulled her back into the kiss. Cameron practically melted in his arms. She felt like the happiest girl in the world with the warmth of Clark's lips on her own.
After a few moments, Clark finally pulled away. "Wow," whispered Cam. She suddenly felt an urge to tell him everything. When she opened her mouth to speak, they were tossed forward in their seats.
"What's going on?" cried Clark. There was no answer from the driver. Cameron looked out her window.
"C-Clark. "she stuttered. Clark turned around and looked outside. There, getting out of a now smashed white car, was John.

Lana sighed and sat on her bed. Everything just seemed to be going wrong in her life. Her parents gone, Nell moved, Whitney gone, and Clark now taken. She had just begun to get to know her real father, now, he was going to be taken from her too. She buried her face in her pillows and silently wept. Just then Gabe called from downstairs. "Lana, phone."
Lana sat up and wiped her eyes with her sleeve. "Oh, great,' she thought. She picked up the phone and put on a cheery voice. "Hello?"
"Lana, it's Henry. I've got some good news," said the voice on the other line. Lana's eyes widened. "I'm not moving." She thought she would cry again because she was so happy.
"Why?" she asked holding back tears of joy.
"I got a new case. A boy, John Walton, I think around your age, is suing a bodybuilding company that sold him an expensive sports drink. It actually contained fruits grown in meteor fragment infested soil. Well, Johnny has now got problems. I can't tell you what kind of problems because they're classified. So, I believe this case is going to take a long time. My wife has declined the job offer in Metropolis and we're not moving. I just thought I'd call and let you know." Henry seemed happy, and Lana couldn't stop smiling.

Clark glared at the guy outside the window. John was checking for damage on his car and took no notice of the limo. Cam put down the screen between them and the driver. He seemed to be unconscious but was breathing. Clark shook his head and got out of the limo. "John right?" he asked. John spun around and his eyes widened at the sight of Clark. He nodded.
"Yea, but just call me Johnny, all my friends do," said John.
"I'm not your friend buddy," Clark said as he laughed. Johnny glared daggers at him. "I know who you are, and I'm not afraid to tell anyone," said Clark. John took a step towards him and Clark felt the familiar pain wash over him. Johnny laughed.
"You think you can beat me?" he asked. "I am much stronger then you might think. And this time you don't have that damn tiger to protect you." Johnny punched Clark in the stomach and he went flying.
'I can't beat him. " thought Clark trying to get up off the ground. 'There's something wrong.' John laughed again and continued to beat up Clark.
Clark winced from all of the pain, and started to pass out. But before the darkness enveloped him, he heard Johnny shout "Not you again, you damn animal!"
