"How long does it take for this stupid thing to come up?" Helen asked,
shifting from foot to foot impatiently
"A few minutes, calm down" Lana said
It was a month later and everything was going great. Clark and Lana were still going strong. So were Chloe and Pete. Helen and Lex were more in love than ever. Despite all his money, Lionel Luthor was still locked in jail. Baby Linda was healthier than ever and was beginning to show subtle signs of her superstregnth
"You're a doctor, Why do you need one from the drugstore?" Chloe asked
They were in the girl's room in the Talon, Helen holding a pregnancy test. She was 25, not that young. Chloe and Lana were beside her, just as exited to see the outcome. Helen had missed her period this month; she was also throwing up a lot. She did not want to worry Lex and told him it was probably just a virus or something. He insisted she stay home from work until she got better. She waited until he had left to go to a meeting to sneak out to Walgreens and buy a pregancy test. Which she had brought to the Talon to show the only friends that mattered to her.
"I didn't want anyone to know until I was sure" she told Chloe "God, this is taking forever" Helen took a deep breath and closed her eyes
"What are you going to do if you are?" Lana said "Pregnant, I mean"
Helen smiled "I kind of hope I am"
"What about Lex?"
"Ever sense Clark's sister was born he was kind of hinting that he wanted a baby.. God, please let it turn blue!"
Chloe and Lana smiled at Helen who was looking hopefully at the test. She stopped suddenly and gasped.
"It's showing!" she exclaimed
Chloe and Lana ran to her side "What does it say?" they both asked
"Blue!" Helen screamed laughing "It's blue, I'm pregnant!"
The next few seconds were filled with shrieking, laughter and hugging.
"I'm going to have a baby!" Helen laughed with tears in her eyes "I'm going to have a kid!"
"Yeah, You're going to have a baby!" Lana said smiling
"This is so amazing!" Helen said, "I'm calling Lex"
She whipped out her cellphone and dialed his number. She turned to Chloe and Lana and shrieked again. They all laughed.
"He's picking up" she whispered to the girls, then turned back to the telephone "Hey hon" she said laughing "I've got news for you"
"Why are you talking like that?" Lana and Chloe heard from the other line, they laughed
"Are you in you're car, hon?" she asked
"Yeah"
"Pull over"
"Why?"
"Just do it, You'll crash it when you hear the news if you are driving it. And make sure you are sitting down"
"Um, OK" Lex's voice sounded unsure
Helen heard him drive the car and shut it off.
"Okay, Helen" He asked, "What's this news?"
"Okay.." She stalled, she turned to Lana and Chloe "On 3" she said to them "1, 2, 3"
"Helen's pregnant!" Chloe and Lana screamed at the same time
"Are.. Are.. they. serious?" Lex stuttered
"Yeah, Isn't this great?" Helen said, giggling "I'm going to have a baby"
"Uh" Lex said in shock "I thought you just had the flu"
"Well, the flu turned out to be a baby" Helen laughed "You're going to be a father!"
"Woah" Lex said, his tone happy "Stay put, I'll be right there"
Helen hung up and turned to the girls again.
"Well?" Chloe asked
"He'll be right over.. Girl, I'm going to have a baby!"
They resumed their shrieking and hugging. After 2 minutes, they all walked out of the bathroom together, Helen still holding the pregnancy test.
"Helen"
They turned around to see Lex running towards her.
"Heres the test" she said giving it to him "It turned blue"
He looked at it, almost studying it "My God" he whispered "We're going to be parents!" he said it a little louder "We're going to be parents!" then he practically screamed it "We're going to be parents!"
"Yeah!" Helen said flashing him a radiant smile.
"Yeah!"
He lifted her off the ground and kissed her. Chloe and Lana stared on giggling, Lex was so.. Not himself right now. He was loosened up and not that uptight anymore. All the customers looked on. Lana noticed.
"Lex Luthor and Helen Bryce-Luthor" Lana announced "Are going to be parents"
The whole place immeaditly clapped for them. Helen and Lex broke apart and laughed when they saw it.
"We're going to have a baby" Helen laughed, with tears in her eyes "I just found out"
"C'mon" Lex said, "Let me take you home"
"Okay" She turned to Chloe and Lana "Thanks guys, for being there for me"
Chloe and Lana smiled at her "No problem" Chloe said
"Hey, and later on we can take you shopping for some maternity clothes"
Helen smiled "I'd love that.. Bye"
"Bye" they said in unison
Helen and Lex exited the Talon getting some "congrats" from the costumers.
"I can't believe Lex Luthor is going to be a father," Lana said to Chloe
"Yeah, I can't believe he's not that uptight"
"We've all changed a little over the last month"
Chloe laughed "Yeah, Pete and I together.. I never saw that in a million years"
"I did.. He always had a thing for you.. It was so obvious"
"Whatever" Chloe giggled, throwing a napkin playfully at Lana.
Lana threw another napkin back at Chloe and they both laughed.
