The next morning on the Daily Planet, Clark arrived early and met Chloe, who was already typing her article. Lois still hadn't come yet so Clark approached Chloe to talk about the last night.

"So did you fly with her?" Chloe asked, smiling at him. "And how was it?"

"Amazing. Like the sky only belonged to us. I thought that flying was the best experience I could have but flying with Lois was even more exciting."

Before Chloe could say anything the elevator door opened with an anxious Lois rushing in with a paper in her hands.

"STOP THE PRESSES!" She yelled calling everybody's attention. "I have the scoop of the century!"

"Lois!" Clark said as he noticed Perry come out to talk to her. She showed her article "My Talk with Superman" to him.

"That's great, Lois. But I would change the headline to 'I spent the night with Superman.' Sounds more appealing." Perry suggested. "I guess I'll have to change tomorrow's front page anyway."

"He made quite an impression on you, didn't he?" Chloe asked teasing Lois who rolled her eyes.

"It was no big deal. It was just an interview… and we flew." She explained before sighs trying to not look too obvious.

"So… how was it?" Clark asked as he sat at his desk. "How was flying with Superman?"

"Like we belonged to the sky." Lois sighs amused with a dream look.

Chloe and Clark walked together to the espresso machine while Lois was on the phone trying to re-schedule her interview with the president.

"I think she is very much in love with you, Clark." Chloe commented with a sarcastic tone. "I mean… with Superman."

"I noticed. I'm just glad she didn't remember our first flight before."

"Oh right. The night Milton Fine or Brainiac sent you to the Phantom Zone, right?" Chloe pointed out trying to remember about the Dark Thursday.

"Right."

2006
Somewhere in the middle of the Artic, Clark finally released himself from the Phantom Zone with the help of Jor-el's friend Raya who warned him about Martha and Lois' plane falling next to the Artic.

When Clark arrived in the plane, Lois and Martha were both unconscious on the floor but still alive. Clark put both in his arms and flew for the first time as himself and not as Kal El. While there were flying Martha came to, but Lois was still unconscious in his arms.

Martha looked at him before they landed back in Smallville.

"Clark!"

"It's okay mom, Everything is gonna be all right." He said as he land in Smallville Medical Center as Lois suddenly woke.

"Smallville, what are you doing here? And how did we get here?" Lois asked confused. "We were in the Artic last time I checked."

"I guess you bump your head harder than I thought, Lois." Clark joked at her. "It's better if the doctor checks you first."

"I'm fine and no, i'm not crazy. Our plane was far away from Washington and I'm sure the plane almost fell in the Artic. How did we end up here back in Smallville? It doesn't make any sense."

"Maybe something or someone brought us here." Martha suggested trying to help Clark. "We are in Smallville after all."

"Yeah... can be." Lois said raising her eyebrow still suspicious. "But I'm still not convinced."

Metropolis, 2015

"So, she never suspected since then?" Chloe asked as Clark nods. "She still bugs me about it, but you know her ... she is very persistent."

"One of the things I love about her." Clark pointed out with a smile.

"Well, considering her reaction to Superman, I can guess her engagement with Richard will not last."

"Do you think?"

"Of course. She is clearly in love with Superman. She obviously can't stop talking or thinking about him." Chloe pointed out with a sympathetic smile. "Trust me."

"I hope you are right, Chloe."
