-Be Truthful-

It's November 13... Three days before Lana's wedding date. Her wedding with Jason that is.

Clark is devastated and has no idea what to do. Thinking he can't trust anyone with his true feelings, Clark goes and visits Lex Luthor.

"Lex, Lana's the only one I feel complete with, I don't know if I can be without her."

"Tell her that, and be completely truthful with her"

On his way back to house Clark trials with himself and tries to decide what to do about Lana. He knows he needs to tell her how he feels about her, but maybe he should take Lex's advice and be completely truthful with her. Maybe he should tell her his secret. After all if she wants to know everything about him so badly, then maybe she should know his secret. But how would he let her know?

"Hello"

"Hey Chloe, it's me, Clark. I was wondering if you could help me with something."

"Yeah sure Clark, what's up?"

"Do you think you could talk to Lana and have her meet me in my loft later tonight?" - "I want to ask her about something before the wedding."

" Uh, yeah sure. I'll call her right now. Jason has a tux fitting at 6 so I'll have her head over there around 6:30ish… Sound good?"

"Thank Chloe, I owe you one."

"Aww man! It's already 7:00pm… I hope she doesn't think it's to weird to meet me in my loft" Those were Clark's thoughts one half hour after Lana was supposed to meet him. For some "questions"…

"Hi Clark, Chloe said you had something to ask me."

"Uh, Lana. I thought you weren't going to come."

" Clark, it's only 7:05 - but sorry I'm late. I had to drive Jason over to the tux shop"

After an awkward stare Lana, and a soft unexplainable gaze from Clark, he broke the silence.

" Lana, do you want to go for a walk?"

She let a slight giggle then looked at Clark and simply said "Yes."

It wasn't cold nor hot. It was November and in Smallville, Kansas it wasn't really anything except a comfortable and in some ways romantic temperature. Clark set off towards the cornfields and Lana followed. Walking the fields full length would take them about 5 minutes. Little did Lana know, but she was about to learn that Clark could run it in about 2 seconds.

Five minutes later, at the end of the cornfield, Clark stopped and turned to Lana.

" Lana, I know you're happy with Jason, but I can't let you go without a fight."

Lana looks at Clark as if she was anticipating those words from his mouth. She waited so long for him to say that to her, but was she ready to react the way she wanted to when she had planned this in her head. She was with Jason who did she want to be with more?

Clark lets out a deep sigh and looks deeply at Lana." Lana, all the secrets I've ever held from you… I want you to know all of them."

"Lana, do you trust me?"

" Of course I do Clark, why wouldn't I?"

He looks at her with the most loving look he could find in his heart And he takes her hands.

" Lana, do you love me?"
