Clark, who had came in a suit and tie, waited at the altar with the Las Vegas preacher. He eagerly waited for Lois to come through the door in a wedding dress. He expected to have a good laugh.

The preacher's wife came through the door first and went to the piano. "We'll have to do the quick vows, Bill. It's 8:24," and then she started playing the wedding march.

Lois nervously stepped out and it took Clark's breath away for a moment. He had never noticed how good Lois looked in white before. She had long sleeves and a high neckline to hide the t-shirt. The edges of the sleeves were wide, lacey, and covered half her hands. The skirt was a full one that puffed out but it was just the right amount. She wore a tiara with a veil that flowed behind it and reached to her waist. In her hands she carried a bouquet of lilies and baby breathes and on her beautiful face she carried an angry scowl.

She obviously mistook Clark's surprised face as a bad thing, so he smiled at her. That only made her angry look even more ferocious because now she thought he was laughing at her. When she got closer, he noticed 'Whitesnake' could be seen faintly through the white material that covered it and this time his smile was an amused one. She hit him as soon as she got up there, which was at a quicker pace than matched the music.

Bill began, "We are gathered here to join this man and this woman in the sight of God by holy matrimony. Do you Clark Joseph Kent take Lois Joanne Lane to be your lawfully wedded wife to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer for poorer, in good times and in bad for as long as you both shall live?"

Clark said, "I do," to the traditional vows and then realized with a start that he had gazed at and told Lois the 2 words like he really loved her and meant them. Of course, he had known he had some feelings for her that he was in favor of denying but as Valentine's Day had so eventfully proven, they were there. 'She is just a friend,' he told himself. He wondered in a moment of fear if meaning what you say made it legal and binding in the eyes of the law and God. Then Lois said, "I do," with a hint of annoyance and contempt in her voice and his fears were relieved. Good, old Lois would never mean them in a million years.

"Do you have the rings?" Bill asked.

Clark realized with a start that he didn't. How could he have forgotten rings? He could find a bubblegum machine. He thought he might have seen some for sale in the lobby. Before he could decide which option to go with, Lois began lifting her skirt up. She was wearing jeans underneath. She pulled a box out of her pocket and whispered so only Clark would hear, "Jimmy loaned them to us. They're his parents'." They slipped them on and surprisingly they fit just right.

"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife."

They gave each other a quick and friendly kiss.

The piano music started playing again and Lois went to take the dress off and hang it back up. While she was gone, Bill gave him the wedding license and to Clark's delight a wedding picture and a DVD of the ceremony. Lois came back out fairly quickly and he hurriedly stashed the picture and DVD in the inside pocket of his jacket. He kept out the license and she snatched it from his hands.

"How ironic," she remarked.

"What?" Clark was afraid to ask because Bill and Elizabeth were there.

"Clark was married in Clark County," she laughed.

Bill and Elizabeth laughed too and Elizabeth pulled put a bag of rice much to Lois' alarm.

"Did you know if you throw that, birds will eat it and then when they get a drink of water, it will swell up inside of them and kill them," Lois said.

"Don't worry, dear. We throw it inside and then vacuum it up. It won't kill the birds."

"Great," Lois muttered, as they began to get pelted by rice. They ran out hand in hand and got outside just in time to see the 8:30 couple going in.

"Run for your lives if you know what's good for you," Lois warned.

"Don't listen to her," Clark told them. "We just got married ourselves. It's fun."

The young couple smiled.

"Maybe we can hang out if you're staying in Las Vegas for awhile. I'm Rob O'Conner and this is my fiancée, Katie Thomas."

"In a few minutes, I'll be Katie O'Conner," Katie giggled.

"I'm Clark Kent and this is my wife, Lois Kent. We—"

"will be too busy to hang," Lois finished for him.

"Good luck and congratulations," Clark called back, as Lois dragged him off.

"Quit trying to strike friendships with strangers and let's get to the hotel!"

"Why, Lois, I didn't know you were so enthusiastic to start our wedding night."

"In your dreams and I'd appreciate it of you wouldn't introduce me as your wife or Lois Kent. Save it for the hotel."

"We have to get into the habit of it. Plus, we were coming out of a wedding chapel. I'm sure they suspected it."

Lois rolled her eyes and got into the waiting taxi.

"What are you looking at?" she asked on the ride.

"Our wedding picture," he smiled as he waved it in the air.

"Give it to me," she snapped.

"I don't think so. You might try to tear it up and it's more convincing if we display it in the room."

She folded her arms and didn't say anything else. Obviously because she knew he was right. It's a good thing he had kept the DVD hidden. There's no doubt she'd try to destroy that and it might come handy as blackmail material one day. As soon as the cab pulled up to the 25 story hotel with the blinking lights that read The Love and Gamble Hotel, Lois jumped out and slammed the door before the cab came to a complete stop.

The cab driver looked back, curious at Lois' behavior. Clark paid him and said, "She's anxious to get to our room. We're on our honeymoon."

The cab driver nodded with an understanding grin and Clark took the suitcases and followed Lois inside.
