Chapter Two
It was Friday afternoon at Smallville High; when the last bell rang, and let all of the anxisoly waiting students go home for the weekend.
Clark gathered his books off his desk and put them into his backpack. Then he headed to his locker and took out the things he would need for his homework that weekend and put back the things that he would not use until the next Monday.
Then one of his best friends Pete Ross came up to him. " Hey man, what's up?"
"Hey Pete" began Clark "Are you ready for the weekend?"
"You better believe it dude, I have been working like crazy this week, and I am so ready for a break." said Pete.
"Yea I think we could all use a break," agreed Clark
" Especially with that huge history project that Mrs. Ganies decided to give us. Do you know what you are going to do yours on yet?" asked Pete.
"Not yet, I figured that I'd use the weekend to think about it," said Clark
"So Clark, do you want to come over to my house and chill?" asked Pete
"Sorry Pete, I was planning on going over to Lex's place, because I haven't seen him in a while." said Clark
"More like you want to see if all the rumors are true about Lex having a new girlfriend." Pete said.
"Something like that," Clark said.
"Come on Clark, why do you spend so much time with that guy?" asked Pete annoyed.
"Pete, we've been through this a thousand times---- "
But Clark couldn't finish because Pete interrupted him, "Yea, yea I know you trust Lex, but sometimes it seems like there's something that he's not telling you, and that your going to grow up and find out that he isn't who you thought he was."
"That's crazy Pete," said Clark
"Whatever, I've got to go." Pete said as he slung his backpack over his shoulder and walked down the hall and out of sight.
Great now Pete's mad at me, thought Clark, Well I hope it blows over soon.

Clark went to Lex's mansion. He walked the path that he knew so well into Lex's office. He found Lex setting up his pool table.
"Want to join me Clark?" asked Lex when he noticed Clark
"Sure" said Clark as he got a stick and started to play. "Have you been busy lately?"
"Yes, but it's just the usual business." replied Lex "Except that you have a new girlfriend now" said Clark
"You heard?" asked Lex
Clark laughed " Along with the rest of Smallville, Lex."
"Yea, her name is Michelle, I met her at the Talon." Replied Lex, smiling at the thought of her.
"I thought you were going to be more careful about who you went out with after what happened with Deseree." said Clark
"Clark, sometimes you just have to do what your heat tells you to do, and take a risk." Lex began "Take Lana for example, why don't you just ask her out?"
Clark looked at Lex for a moment and finally said, "Maybe I will."
