A/N: Hello everyone, I know it's been forever since I've updated and I'm sorry. I've been pretty depressed lately but then I realized that this was the only keeping me going everyday. I hope you can get into this story again. Thanks, and don't forget to review!
My heart shatters into a million pieces as he stares me in the eye. I think I've stopped breathing. I'm feeling light headed, yep I stopped breathing. Just breathe Lana, breathe. Why is this effecting me so much? Shouldn't I be used of seeing Clark and his girlfriend make out? They do it everyday in school. I guess it hurts because that was before I go to know him. Before I really fell in love with him. Before I got to see what I was really missing.
Mona mutters a shut up to Chloe and pulls Clarks precious lips back to hers. They continue as if they were never interrupted, and that's just another blow to my heart. I watch his lips travel to her neck while she throws her head back in pleasure. I can't take it anymore. I need to get out of the theatre and I need to get out now.
"Chloe I'm going to the bathroom." I quickly mutter before speed walking out of the room. The tears are welling up in my eyes, and are about to flow freely. That can't happen. I will at least make it to the restroom. At least.
About ten minutes later someone walks up to my stall and knocks on the door. "Lana"
"I'm fine Chloe" I know I'm lying through my teeth but hopefully she won't notice.
"Lana, please. I'm your best friend. You don't have to lie to me." Why do I even try to lie to her?
"Chloe, I'll be alright. You should get back to the movie. I think I'm going to go home. I just want to be alone right now." It's quiet on the other side of the door for about a minute. I can tell that she's thinking about going back to the movie, or coming with me.
"Are you sure Lana? If you need to talk you know you talk to me right?"
"Yeah Chloe, I know that and thank you for being concerned but I'll be fine."
"That's what I'm here for Lana. I'll give you sometime, but when your ready to talk, I'm here." I'm lucky to have a best friend like Chloe. I can hear her shoes leaving the restroom and I'm happy because I really do just want to be by myself.
Another five minutes later I leave the restroom with puffy red eyes. I don't dare look up, afraid to look anyone in the eye. I'm not the type to just go around crying in public. I usually try and hold everything in until I get to my room. I'm almost to the door before I hear someone call out my name. "Lana!" That voice is familiar. Maybe this is what I need, a distraction.
"Hello Whitney" I say without looking him in the eye. I don't want him to know that I was crying. He walks up to me with caution, as if afraid that I'm about to explode. Guys are like that sometimes. Girls crying is just something that they don't like to see that often.
"So Lana have you...what happened? Are you okay?" His voice is filled with concern and it warms my insides knowing that someone other than my best friends care about me.
"I'm okay Whitney. Thanks for asking." Finally finding the courage to look him in the eye, I see nothing but concern for me.
"Are you sure cause" I cut him off before he can continue.
"I'm positive Whitney. I was just watching a sappy movie and...well you know how that goes." I really do hate lying to people, but he can't know the truth. He doesn't look like he's buying it.
"You came to watch a movie by your self?" Good point.
"Um...yeah. You s-see...I don't like to cry in front of people so I came alone." Well that's partially true.
"Okay Lana. Well have you thought about it?" I really do need to get over Clark and he's obviously happy with that...girl. Now is my chance to a fresh start. Whitney is a nice guy and I think he can help me take my mind off of Clark. I do have feelings for him, just not the same that I have for Clark, and always will have.
"I have thought about it Whitney and...yes, I'd love to go out with you." He smiles his boyish smile and I can't help but smile also. This relationship will be good for me. Relationship? What am I talking about? He asked me out to a date, not to be his girlfriend. I'm getting way ahead of myself. Why would I do that?
"Really?" He is kind of cute when he gets excited.
"No Whitney. I don't want anything to do with you, go away." I say in a flat and watch his smile quickly leave his face. I can't help but laugh, that was way too easy.
"I'm just kidding Whitney." I laugh some more "I had you there." Even more laughing. Whitney's expressionless face slowly begins to turn into a smile.
"I never knew you were so funny."
"Well, there's a lot you don't know about me Whitney." Suddenly his face becomes serious.
"I plan on changing that." Hmmm...I don't know what to say so I just smile. He's staring at me and as much as I love the attention, I'm getting a little uncomfortable. I'm not used of getting a guys full attention, other than Pete.
"So Lana, I'll pick you up tomorrow night around...7:30?" I'm going to have to ask Nell but I'm sure she'll let me go.
"That sounds great Whitney. I'll see you then." I turn around really smiling big for the first time since witnessing Clark and Mona's make out session. I can feel his eyes following me and I can hear some of his buddies calling him.
The ride home is peaceful and quiet. I always loved Smallville. The land is beautiful and relaxing. Everyone always talks about leaving this small town for the big, bad city. When I'm older and I have kids of my own I hope to find another small town like Smallville. Where I can feel safe for not only myself, but for my kids also. I want to live on a ranch and have some farm animals. I want my kids to be brought up in a good environment and I want them to have a good dad. I bet Clark would make a perfect dad, and husband. Ugh! Why do my thoughts always find there way to him?
The stars are shinning bright tonight, and I decide to stop by a field about a mile from my house to admire them. I haven't done this in a while, just sat and thought. Nell isn't expecting me home for at least another hour and so I decide to just sit and watch.
An hour later I try and start my car but it makes a funny clicking sound. It isn't starting! Why must this happen to me! I have the worst luck ever. It's dark and even though I'm close to my house, I still don't want to walk in the dark. Who knows what kind of crazy cereal killers could be out there. I wait for another half hour and decide to chance it. Walking in the dark isn't so bad right?
I'm only about five feet away from my car when a set of headlights blind me. I hold up my hands to shield my eyes from the bright lights. I don't know whether I should be running right now, or not. A crunching sounds is made as the driver gets out of their vehicle, and shuts the door. I can hear their footsteps coming closer and closer to me. The shadow of their body towers over mine. I'm too scared to move, but not too scared to speak.
"Who's there!" I shout into the dark night waiting for an answer.
