Smallville- An Act Of Kindness Leading to a Perfect Day of Love
Continued.
It was going to be a long ride, according to what Mac told them. Secrets. Everyone had trouble with telling secrets. Lana was thinking about why he had so much trouble telling her about himself. She's told so many things to him. If they were going to be together again, she would demand an answer. But even if she didn't receive an answer, she'd still get back together with Clark if he wanted to. It felt so good to be with someone you knew loved you back. She thought long and hard before speaking.
"So, now's the time to tell me your big secret. I know you have one that you refuse to tell me," Lana said a little shakily, noticing Clark go quiet after saying that. "Here, I'll go first. I bet you didn't know that I remember every detail of the day I was under the influence of the nicodemous flower."
"Really? So how come you never told me that?"
"I don't know, I was still with Whitney then. I don't even remember why I was with him when he didn't even treat half as good as you treat me."
"So you remember dragging me to the pool and-"
"Taking of my clothes in front of you before diving into the pool, yes."
"And-"
"Getting out of the pool to kiss you and push you in the pool, yes."
"Alright. Just one question: why did you drag me at the time? Wouldn't you have to drag Whitney there with you instead of me?"
"I don't know, I never really understood that. Maybe it's 'cause you meant more or something so. ya. What I had with Whitney was so different. I don't think I was really into him that much. Then you came along and. well. your turn now Clark."
"Uhh."
"Come on, what's you big secret?"
"Um. I don't have any."
"Clark, come on, I know you have a big secret you've kept from me the day I met you," Lana said, giving him a kiss. "Now tell me your big secret."
"I can't. I would I could, but-"
"Don't start that with me again. You always want to know the truth about other, but you can't even tell the truth about yourself. You have a choice. Now tell me." She leaned over and gave him another sweet, lingering kiss.
"You really think that's going to help?" Clark asked as they separated.
"Yes." She went back for more kiss, but then scooted back quickly after that.
"Promise not tell or freak out or hate me?"
"I could never hate you. I won't tell anyone. You can trust me."
"I'm an alien."
"You're what? Are you-"
"No, I'm not lying. I came here the day of the meteor shower. The day your parents died. but if I knew the kind of destruction that I'd caused, I would have never came. It's not like I had a choice. I'd show you the spaceship, but I sort of blew it up one day." Then, Lana went completely silent. Her mind went into a blur as the memory of watching her parents died came back.
"Why didn't you ever tell me about this? Here I am thinking things were going great and I find out this? Didn't you think I'd care to know? How-"
"Trust me, I wanted to tell you from the beginning but I couldn't. My parents wouldn't let me tell anyone."
"Trust you? Should I even trust you now? How do I know you haven't kept a lot more secrets from you," Lana said. Clark reached in for another kiss, trying to do what Lana did to him for answers.
"You really think that helps?" Lana asked, with a quiet laugh. Then, she realized how selfish she was acting. She couldn't imagine how it feels in his position. "Oh god, I'm so sorry. I just didn't. I mean I just thought. I'm sorry, I just had no idea."
"Yeah. nobody does."
"Who else knows about this, I mean, besides your parents?"
"Pete. That's all."
"What, so you'll tell him, but not me?" She asked, a little annoyed at the fact that Pete knew before her.
"I didn't have a choice. He found my spaceship one day and wanted to show everyone. Then, I'd have to be taken away and studied by scientists, taken away from all of you. What I really want is to be normal."
"Oh. wow. I guess I'm just really surprised. You don't look any different than the next guy."
"Yeah, well, it's what I can do that makes me different."
"What can you do?"
"I can run 1,000 mph, lift things 100 times my weight, have x-ray vision, heat vision, bulletproof, and heal very fast." He grabbed a knife where the utensils in the limo were and handed it to her. "Cut me."
"What? You want me to cut you?" She was shocked to hear what he wanted her to do.
"Just cut me now." She gently cut the side of his arm, deep enough to see a little of what was inside, but before she could say anything, the gap closed up. "How?"
"See, it's not so easy being me."
"So nothing can ever kill you, huh?"
"Everything except green meteor rocks, like the ones that used to be in your necklace. That stuff makes me sick."
"I never knew, but I did know there had to be a reason I always felt safe and comfortable in your arms."
"Do you think I'm a big freak now?"
"No. I still love you."
"I love you too." He leaned over to her and gave her a passionate kiss on the lips. Once they separated, they arrived at the restaurant.
"La Maison D'amour. What does that mean?"
"No clue. Let's just go inside." The waitresses led them to a private corner where they sat on the same side of the semi-circular booth. The setting, was nice, with roses all over and dim lighting. As the menus were put down, so was a light blue envelope.
"Must be the next envelope, Lana. You do the honors." Clark handed her the card.
***Card 7: Congratulations on making this day all the way. Having a great time? You two better (Clark: I want full details tomorrow morning). Order whatever you guys want on the menu. The expenses are all covered. Don't worry. Enjoy dinner together and afterwards you will be taken to the dance at your school. Then the rest of the night is yours, no more cards. Hope you both had a great time! ~Lex***
They both ordered their favorite dish and talked and talked and talked. Clark felt so good that there were no longer secrets between them.
