What would have happened if Jonathan had died the first time around, but Lana died the second? What if the whole thing had been reversed?
--------------------------------------
"Lana! Lana!" Clark screamed fighting his dad to trying to reach the girl lying on the ground.
"Clark! Clark! It's okay, son. It's okay." Jonathan held Clark who was shaking, tears running down his face. Clark couldn't look away from her marred face.
"No! Lana! Lana! No! I love her! Lana!"
--------------------------------------
"Smallville?" Clark was sitting with his back against the couch in the loft, bouncing a tennis ball against the wall. He had been sitting this like before, feeling things similar to this, it hadn't hurt so much then. As if Lana's death hadn't been enough this reopened the wounds that were still stinging from Alicia's murder.
"Hey, Smallville? You okay?"
"Yeah, Lois, I'm fine."
"You don't look fine." Lois said sinking onto the couch.
"How am I supposed to look when the woman I love is dead?"
"Clark…I'm sorry. I know I've told you but I mean it, I'm sorry. I know you loved her."
"She loved me to."
"I know she did and it's gotta hurt."
"Do you? Do you know how much it hurts to lose the person who you love? Do you know how it feels when you know you'll never love anyone like that ever again?"
"I know a little bit about pain to. Stop blaming yourself, it wasn't your fault."
"I can't. It's my fault. If I hadn't told Lana….everything…wouldn't have happened…my fault…" Clark faltered his voice cracking.
"Hey, let's not get all emotional now…" Lois tried to crack.
"Lois?"
"Yeah, Smallville?"
"I think you should go."
"Yeah. Uh, no problem. Your mom asked me to come up here and tell you that the...thing's in an hour." Lois walked away with a pained but understanding look.
Clark just nodded.
