Please read and review! It only takes a second to hit that B-U-TIFUL
purple button down there!
"Yah, Lana. What's there to talk about?" Clark knew that he couldn't play this off for too long, but he didn't know how to start it off with her.
"Clark, for some reason, I just feel like coming clean about everything. First of all, do you want to say anything?"
Clark was about to brush her off but couldn't find the words. The only thing left in his heart was the truth.
"Lana, I have so many feelings for you. My feelings for you are as deep as the ocean and I've always known that I loved you. When you were with Whitney, I imagined that I was the one making you happy."
Clark snuck a glance at Lana but couldn't gauge her reaction.
"But when Whitney died, I felt so guilty for wishing him away. How do you feel about this?"
Lana took a deep breath and replied, "Clark, you are my rock, the one person I can always count on. When Whitney died, I felt so guilty, especially since I had sent him that video tape."
Clark knew that this moment would change the rest of his life.
Lana continued by saying, "I always wonder how me breaking up with Whitney affected him. He was in a war, and I wonder if I was to blame for his lack of spirit, therefore killing him."
Sloppy tears started rolling down her face.
"Clark, as for us, I always had feelings for you, from the very beginning when you introduced yourself to me." Lana took one of Clark's hands into both of her own. She looked down ashamedly.
"Sometimes I would lie in bed and think about my feelings for you. It's complicated, but when I got down to the most basic feeling for you, it was pure love."
Clark had no idea that his feelings were not one-sided. He often wondered if Lana would ever see him as more than a friend.
"Clark?" After about twenty seconds, Lana's face took on a worried expression.
"Clark, are you ok?"
Lana grabbed Clark's face between her two hands and kissed him. Clark took a moment to react. He couldn't believe his dream girl loved him back. But this wasn't right, and Clark knew he shouldn't be taking advantage of the situation. Tomorrow, Lana wouldn't remember a thing. This was the hardest part of this wish, knowing that no one would remember a thing. How could he go on to tomorrow knowing what he knew?
Clark tore his face away from hers and Lana's eyes searched his. "Clark, what's wrong? I thought you loved me. Is it not okay that I kissed you?"
Clark hadn't even told Lana the secret he had been keeping for as long as he could remember. How could he explain his powers to her, especially since she had just said everything he had ever wanted to hear?
His whole life, he had been excluded from feeling "normal." Even as a child, he had stood on the outside of the group. Now, he stood in front of the girl he loved, and he was worried. Lana was the most understanding person he knew, besides from his parents. If she took this badly, he would never be able to get close to her again.
"Lana, before you say anything more, I have to tell you something, something that might change how you feel about me. . ."
A/N: I was hoping for a longer chapter, but I had the craziest notion to end it right here. I wonder why???
