Lana got up and walked to her window, "Clark?" She whispered, as she looked
out the window. And there he was, walking away from her house. What was
going on? Why did he come in the middle of the night and not even wake her?
Was it about the lawyer that was there earlier? Lana didn't know, but she
did know that she wouldn't be able to sleep without getting some answers.
She slipped on her coat and some shoes, and ran after Clark, being
extremely quiet til she was out of the house.
When Lana was a few feet behind him, she called out his name , "Clark." she said just above a whisper.
Clark turned around, obviously surprised by her presence. "Lana." Was all he said.
"Clark.. I saw you walking away and I thought that... what are you doing here?" Lana said seeing something was defiantly wrong but Clark's facial expression.
Clark simply filled the gap between them and hugged her, holding on to her longer than normal, leaving Lana with out a doubt that something BIG was wrong.
"Clark, what is going on? Are you okay?"
But Clark didn't say anything, he just stood there as if he didn't even know what to say to a question like that.
"Clark, what did the lawyers say?" Lana asked filling the silence.
Suddenly Clark's expression turned to one of anger.
"They wanna put my dad in jail, and they wanna take me away and I just wanna– "
"Take you away!" Lana looked shocked, "in jail!"
Lana knew the situation, but never thought that it was big enough to do this. She thought the risk was someone learning Clark's secret, not taking him away.
"Lionel is playing his usual games!" Clark said.
"But why?" Lana was still trying to process threw her mind exactly what it all meant.
"I can't be sure but– you know it doesn't matter! Someone has to make Lionel pay, and I'm not going to let him hurt anyone else!" Clark said sounding so angry, Lana thought he had yelled the words. Before Lana could say anything, Clark bent down and kissed her and started walking away.
Lana ran after Clark and grabbed him by the arm. "Clark were are you going?"
"If I don't do this Lana, he will just keep on destroying every ones lives!" Clark said removing Lana's hand from his arm.
"Clark, stop! I don't know what you are planning to do, but don't!" Lana said.
"Why! Why shouldn't I? WHY LANA!" Clark shouted.
"Clark, you are mad, and who knows what you will do. Please... pleas just wait until you calm down." Lana said taking a step back as Clark shouted.
"I won't calm down, Lana! He is going to ruin my father's life! And it's because of me! Unless I stop him! So just DON'T tell me to calm down!" Clark yelled again.
Lana started crying. Clark yelling at her, and seeing him in so much pain made the suppressed tears come out.
"Lana I..." Clark couldn't believe he had just brought his girlfriend to tears. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to yell..."Only then did Clark realize how out of control his anger was making him, after all, Lana was crying because of him... just like his mom.
"Clark, no... I can't imagine what you have been threw... I didn't have th right but... I just don't want you to do something that you will regret..."
"I can't do this anymore."
"Do what, Clark?"
"Keep hurting everyone I love. It was true what I said the day of Lex's wedding, "All I bring to the people I love is pain and suffering."
When Lana was a few feet behind him, she called out his name , "Clark." she said just above a whisper.
