Touching
I DO NOT OWN any of the "Smallville" characters, only the character of Dana Wells and all the traits that pertain to her. Baby D
"Dana, I'm so sorry," he let out slowly. She smiled again.
"Clark," she closed her eyes slowly, and then opened them the same. "I saw it Clark, our planet, and my parents, I saw them." Clark smiled sadly at her.
"Dana, I know what all this is now, I can feel it," he paused clasping her cold hand in both of his, "I'll never be able to forgive myself for letting them do this to you, I…"
"Shhh," Dana turned her head to the ceiling and closed her eyes again, breathing in and out very slowly.
"Dana?" Clark shook her hand worriedly, "Dana!" Dana opened her eyes again and looked at him.
"You know, this is the first time we're touching, and all I see is you." Clark, with welled eyes, smiled back at her as her eyes closed again. Not able to think of anything else, he leaned over and kissed her softly.
"I forgive you," she let out faintly. Suddenly, a bright light began to radiate from between their lips. It continued to grow stronger and stronger as Clark opened his eyes to it. He sat up and backed away, shielding his eyes from the blinding light. It filled the room, overpowering all colour, forcing Clark to squeeze his eyes shut. The light filled the hallway, making it's way towards the front desk.
"What's going on in there?" Another officer outside the door kicked and banged on the door as she too shielded his own eyes.
"Clark!" He heard his father yelling.
In a final pulse, the light was gone. Slowly and carefully, Clark opened his eyes. The room was empty, where Dana had been; now only lay the crumpled sheets and the wires.
Stepping closer to the bed, he noticed a small metallic object, picking it up he saw that it was a pendant, octagonal in shape with the same markings as the ones on the key to his ship. As the police finally burst into the room, Clark quickly stuffed the necklace into his jeans pocket.
"Put your hands up!" The officers pointed a gun at him. Clark did exactly that, still with tears in his eyes. He realized he couldn't feel the connection anymore, it was gone and so was she. There were still so many things he had to ask her, so many questions all left unanswered.
The officers and Clark's parents escorted him to the police station where he was held for questioning. After hours of gruelling grilling and lecture, the Kents were allowed to go home.
