Thanks for the reviews. Here goes the next part.

Two girls ran down the stairs Clark immediately picked out who was Tess chiefly because she was the spitting image of Lana at that age with bright green eyes that were his. The other girl was smaller with long blonde hair and dark eyes. Tess ran into Lana's arms and she hugged her.

"Mummy" she said after a minute "Who's this?" she hugged her mother tighter and looked out from behind her hair at this stranger. Her face changed from apprehension to curious "He looks like the picture you showed us of Daddy" Lana laughed in shock at her little girl genuinely surprised that she even remembered.

"Yeah you're right Tez" said Lewis and he walked round Clark "Mummy put Tez down and stand in front of Clark" Lana just did as she was told and Clark laughed. Sara looked on at the two children ordering the adults around.

"Now Clark" said Tess after talking to her twin for a moment "Put your arms round Mummy like this" she said as Lewis put his arms over her shoulders for a minute. Clark did as he was told.

"You put your hands on his Mummy" said Lewis

"And laugh" they said together pulling faces. This had the desired effect and made them all laugh.

Once Tess and Lewis looked at the two laughing they froze with shock in their young eyes.

"It's true" whispered Tess and they both stood rooted to the spot.

"Daddy?" he whispered and Clark looked at Lana then their children.

Lana had tears in her eyes as Clark let go of her and crouched down in front of the twins. He nodded unable to do anything else he voice failed him as he tried to speak. Lewis ran at him crying out.

"Daddy you came back" he hugged Clark tightly and Clark looked at his daughter who was hanging back slightly. She looked shy of him and he smiled at her.

"Hey Tess" he whispered. She looked at him inching forward then her face split in a grin and she ran to him also hugging him tightly.

The two of them tackled him to the ground. On his back while his twins hugged him fiercely. He couldn't say anything he just hugged them back with all his heart. There was a flash of a camera and an apologetic Sara standing over them.

"Thought you might want remember this"

"I'd have a hard time forgetting" said Clark managing to stand up whilst holding tightly to them both "Jesus you two are strong" he said slightly out of breath and they both laughed at him.

"We get it from you" said Lewis

"That I do know" he said.

He turned to look at Lana who had tears running down her face. He hoisted Lewis onto his shoulders and put his free hand around her pulling her close and kissed her head. She hugged him too. Another small voice piped up.

"You're the twins Dad then" said Hannah who had stayed remarkably quiet through all of this.

"Yep" Clark said grinning like an idiot.

"Then go and be their Daddy then which means you don't stand their grinning like an idiot in our hallway"

"Hannah!" said Sara shocked

"No she's right" said Clark putting Lewis and Tess down "Thank you for introducing me to my daughter and photographing it as well" he held his hand out for Sara who shook it hesitantly "And now we're" he said crouching in front of the twins "Going to go home and I'm not going to let you out of my sight for at least seven hundred years." They both laughed at him "Come on" he said and they clambered up him Tess finding the crook of his elbow to rest on and Lewis taking up position on his shoulders. "Lana?" he looked at her and then just nodded and walked out bending almost double to get through the door with Lewis on his shoulders.

"Aren't you going with him?" asked Sara

"In a sec" said Lana then hugged her friend "Thank you"

"What for?" she asked confused.

"For helping me all the times when the twins were growing up and not being the same as all the other gossip queens around here" said Lana. Lana's smile started to match Clark's grin of a few seconds ago "He's really back" she laughed and Sara looked at her with a look that said 'Why are you standing here?'

"Well go and celebrate then" she said and pushed her young friend out of the door and stood on the porch as she saw Lewis run back and pull his mother after them.

"Come on" he said "Daddy said he has to make a phone call and you have to be there"

"Ok, ok I'm coming" she waved at Sara who waved back then watched as Lana was dragged off by her son.

"They're going to one strange family aren't they Han?" she asked her daughter and Hannah nodded.
