Here's chapter 10. I got it up quickly just for you guys! Hope you all enjoy it. And I think around Thursday next week is the next time that I will be able to upload chapter 11 because I'm going to be busy nearly all week. Sorry for the wait.


Clark and Lana were the first ones to arrive at the movies. Pete came about ten minutes later, with Rory, Jason and Carlee. They all went to see different movies. Carlee and Lana went to a chick flick and the guys went to see an action film.

After the films finished most of the people went home but Clark, Pete and Lana stayed around town for a little longer. Clark and Lana still weren't talking to each other and Pete couldn't take all the silence anymore.

"C'mon guys. You've gotta talk to each other some time!" Pete said after he stopped in front of them.

"I guess your right Pete... sorry for what happened today Lana," Clark finally said as he turned and faced her.

"It's alright Clark. But I can ask you something?" Lana asked.

"Uh... sure, go ahead," Clark said. He figured out what he thought Lana would say but he let her ask anyway.

"Do you like me... more than a friend?" Lana finally got out.

"Uh...um..." Clark started but Lana knew what his answer was.

"I better go, it's getting late and I've got homework to do," then Lana ran straight to her aunt Nell's flower shop because she knew that Nell would still be around.

Pete called his mom to pick him up and offered Clark a ride home as well. Clark didn't take the offer; he told Pete that his dad was going to pick him up anyway. Clark was lying, as soon as Pete's car was out of sight, he super-sped home.

When he got back to the farm, the truck was gone and the front door was locked. Clark knew his parents weren't going to be in because they were going to a dinner with some friends in Metropolis so he knew Alyssa would still be in. He knocked on the door and heard footsteps coming towards it. She checked it was Clark first then she quickly unlocked the door and let him in.

"Hey Alyssa, when did mom and dad leave?" Clark asked. He knew his parents were going out, but not sure of then they were leaving.

"Around seven or so, and I was watching that so put it back!" Alyssa shouted as she tried to grab the remote from Clark.

"Fine, here's the remote. I'm going upstairs, got homework that needs to be done by Monday I think," Clark said as he threw the remote over to his sister and he went upstairs.

"By the way Clark, heard about you in Science today. Great time to daydream about Lana, huh?" Alyssa said to tease him. He just ignored him and went up to his room.

Clark came downstairs again at around 11.30. Alyssa had fallen asleep on the sofa with the television on. This was the second time that they had been left home alone overnight. Their parents needed space sometime or another. Sometimes they got a babysitter to help out but they thought Clark could keep everything right. They trusted him a lot and he liked it. He liked his parents believing in him.

Clark took a seat on the sofa beside his sister's head. He lifted her head onto his lap and put a blanket over her. He always took care of Alyssa, even when they had been fighting a lot. He cared about her a lot and wouldn't let anything bad happen to her. If someone was bullying her, he would sort it. If she needed help with homework, he would be right beside her, helping her understand it more. Whenever Alyssa was upset about something, Clark would be there to dry her tears. He was the perfect big brother to Alyssa.

He was flicking through the channels when the phone rang. He let the machine pick it up first but when he heard it was the dad, he gently laid Alyssa's head back down of the couch and answered the phone.

"Hi dad."

"Hi Clark, at least you remembered to let the machine pick it up first. Well, your mom and I might be a little late coming home tomorrow so you and Alyssa will have to the farm work, alright?"

"Sure dad, no problem at all."

"Good. That's all I needed to tell you Clark. You better go to sleep, night."

"Night dad."


I'm sorry again because of the wait for chapter 11. School's starting on Monday and my teachers are usually evil to us so they'll end up giving me homework. So the next update will be around Thursday, but if I can get it up sooner I will!
