A/N: Ok, you guys. . . I'm not feeling like anyone is reading this story.
I love to write and will continue (probably) but I wish I knew if anyone is
reading this story.
On a different note, I've gotten some answers to my "Character-Search" but they weren't right. That said, I will make it even easier. Here's some more 'well-known' lyrics to these artists:
Her name is Nona/She's a rocker with a nose-ring/She wears a two-way but I'm not quite sure what that means/
If you know the answer, email your name and a brief description of yourself to goldengirl04@sbcglobal.net.
I know qwertygirl and all my other reviewers are just dying to know what happens to Clark, so ON WITH THE STORY!
Lex gazed on as Clark walked back and forth across the enormous office.
"The day of the meteor shower . . . the day when . . . well, you lost most of your hair is the day my parents found me." Clark glanced at Lex and realized Lex's expression was blank. The Luthors' tried never to show any emotion.
"I was adopted, but not in the normal sense. My parents *found* me in the field." Clark stopped and looked at Lex. "I have these . . . powers that no one else has."
Clark demonstrated by disappearing in a blur and reappearing in front of Lex and by lifting up Lex's heavy mahogany desk as if it weighed ten pounds.
Lex steepled his fingers and said, "And the day my car went off the bridge?"
"I saw a flash of silver coming towards me and we both went off the railing. The only thing I could think of was getting the person trapped inside OUT."
Clark sat down in a heavy armchair. "You kept pressing me for the real answer as to how I saved you, and I couldn't give it to you. I'm sorry, Lex."
"Clark, I don't understand why you didn't trust me. From the start, I've been your friend and have helped you out whenever you needed it." Lex continued by saying, "The Kents have always had a distrust for the Luthors, but I thought you were different."
"Lex, I didn't know what to think at first. When we became friends, it was . . . just too risky to tell anyone. Do you understand?"
Lex buzzed in his secretary, Alice. To Alice, Lex commanded, "Alice, tell James to bring the car around. Clark still has to get back to school." After Alice had left with a "Yes, sir," and a smile, Lex turned to Clark. "Clark, have you told anyone else what you have told me?"
Clark replied by saying, "I told Lana, and Chloe overheard. Both of them are upset, for very similar reasons." Clark started to get up, then sank back into the armchair. "I told Lana about this . . . but only AFTER I had already told her I loved her. She was hurt." He groaned, "Why do secrets always hurt the people I love?"
With no answer but a shrug from Lex, Clark continued. "And Chloe, Chloe wonders whether she will ever measure up to Lana and the pedestal I have put her on. I'm just . . . so confused."
Lex stood and headed towards the door. "Clark, right now just go back to school. We'll talk about this later."
Clark forgot to tell Lex the entire story, though. He didn't mention the little detail that Lex would remember none of this tomorrow.
***********
Clark was glad that he only had one class after lunch. Unfortunately, that class was with both Chloe AND Lana. During his math class, he snuck glances at both girls.
Chloe seemed a little subdued. She had a blue notebook out and was scribbling furiously in it. He nonchalantly leaned over to see what she was writing.
CLARK: PROS AND CONS
Underneath "PROS" she had put 'a great friend,' 'willing to do anything for you,' and 'definitely EASY on the eyes.'
Clark felt himself blush after reading the last one. Under "CONS" she had put 'second best' and 'SUPERMAN' with a lot of question marks after the second one. Clark knew Chloe was having serious doubts about his true feelings for her, and also serious questions about his powers.
Anyone looking at Lana would have sworn she was deeply interested in the lecture being given. However, after Clark looked harder, he saw her eyes fill up with tears, only to be furiously blinked away.
Clark had no idea how to fix this. Suddenly, he remembered his wish would not be remembered by anyone after today, except for him. How could he deal with Lana and Chloe after he had found out how they would react? Clark still felt . . . confused.
