Clark walked down the street with his hand firmly wrapped around
Lana's smaller one. His smile was so wide that it almost started to cause
him pain in his cheeks. He smiled down at Lana who was blowing on her gum.
She blew a big bubble and he reached his hand out and popped it. The gum
flattened on her face. Clark stared at her surprised face for a second and
burst out laughing.
"Clark!" Lana cried wiping the gum off of her face. After successfully wiping the gum off she turned to him and placed her hands on her hips. He was leaning on the glass window outside of the Beanery. He had his hands on his sides laughing.
"I'm sorry Lana." He said trying to place a serious look onto his face. His mouth slightly quivered and Lana's eyes gleamed. She burst out laughing and he finally gave up and let the cheery laughter flow from his mouth. After a second or two he glanced up and halted as he stared into the beanery.
Lana noticed Clark's change of expression and placed her hand onto his shoulder.
"Clark, what is it?" She questioned frowning. He pointing into the window and she turned and her mouth fell open.
Whitney and Chloe sat at one of the tables in the far corner of the beanery. They both had a cup of coffee and they were smiling and talking to one another.
"What are they doing? Chloe and Whitney hate each other." Clark whispered and he let his mouth hang open once again.
"Wow, I though the day Chloe started to talk to Whitney without screaming would be the day hell froze over." Lana said to Clark. He nodded and grabbed her hand.
"What is he trying to do? Get back at me or something?" Clark spat out as his eyes glazed in anger.
"Clark, I don't think Whitney would…" She broke off as Clark grabbed her arm and pulled her into the beanery quickly.
Chloe let out a laugh as Whitney joked about the football team. She shook her head in amazement as he smiled at her from across the table. As they had started talking Chloe had found her mood to rise as Whitney cheered her with small jokes and pleasant talks about books. She was surprised to find out that Whitney was not very different from her. He often made jokes about the people on the football team, which had greatly surprised her.
"You're so open to make a joke about your friends. I really don't understand it." She said with a soft smile on her face. Whitney shrugged and took a drink from his coffee.
"Well, I usually don't make jokes about my friends because I'm always with them. They may be my friends, but I don't like some of the things they do." He said sadly. She raised her eyebrow and rested her elbows on the table.
"That's odd because a few weeks ago you were doing most of those things you don't like." She said firmly and seriously. He looked at the table and sighed as if suddenly guilty about something.
"I know, but that was until my father became sick and before I lost my offers to colleges. I don't know, I guess I used to put myself on a pedestal and now that I'm like most of the people in this town, I've changed. I can't explain it. You just have to except it."
Chloe's mouth fell open in shock and she smiled at him placing her hand on his hand. Before she could say something a voice spoke up behind them.
"Hey guys, want to tell us what's going on?" Chloe and Whitney turned to find Clark standing there with his arms folded and a huge glare across his face with Lana standing behind him with a confused look on hers.
A/N: I know some of you all might have thought that Lana and Clark were the ones to blame. But, I wanted you all to see that they are a likeable couple! I know this chapter is short and I'm so sorry! I've been pretty busy so it's hard to give myself time to write. I promise I'll have more chapters up soon! Thanks for the sweet reviews! I really appreciate all of them!
