Chapter 5 – Two of a Kind
Clark gently opened the door to Lois' dark bedroom, never breaking contact with her lips. He carries me like I weigh almost nothing, she thought idly through the kisses.
But she pulled away just long enough to murmur, "The lights…"
Clark set her down. "I can take care of it," he chuckled. Suddenly, all of the candles scattered across the room sprang to life in a wave.
"I could get used to that," Lois approved, throwing her arms around his neck to kiss him again.
He lifted her again, and placed her on the bed. He kissed her neck tenderly. She felt so soft, so right, under his hands. He couldn't really believe they were doing this. Did Lois really feel this way about him, or was it the alcohol talking?
Clark lifted his head. "Are you sure you're okay with this? You did a lot of Jell-O shots earlier, you know."
Lois smirked. "Smallville, you know I can hold my liquor. What about you? You must have had as many as I did."
"Alcohol doesn't affect me at all," he admitted.
That got her to sit up in surprise. "Not at all?"
He shook his head guiltily.
"Then I guess my little plan to soften you up failed," she laughed.
"I wouldn't say that," he rumbled, renewing his attack on her neck.
Lois gasped with pleasure at the feel of his lips on her. His hands roamed her freely, and suddenly she had to feel more than the touch of his beloved flannel. "Smallville…"
"Yes?" he said, as his kisses traveled to the lower point of her V-necked blouse.
"Wait…"
Clark stopped, confused. "What is it?"
"Well," she began. "I enjoyed that little strip-tease you performed for my dare. It's too bad I didn't challenge you to play Strip Poker instead of Five Card Stud."
Clark liked the way her mind worked. He smiled seductively. "Well, Miss Lane. I think I won that last hand. If we were playing Strip Poker now…" he suggested.
She could take a hint. Lois crossed her arms in front of her body to grasp the hem of her blouse. Ever so slowly, she removed it, revealing a red satin and lace bra. He could have seen that with his X-ray vision, but it was way more exciting when she revealed herself willingly.
Lois tossed the blouse to the floor. "Your turn."
Clark only grinned in response. He unbuttoned his flannel shirt, one slow button at a time. But instead of a bare chest, Lois saw a red undershirt. She arched an eyebrow. Clark just gestured to her lacy undergarments.
"I will if you will," Lois teased.
Faster than the speed of light, Clark was standing bare-chested before her, smiling.
"Well, I can't do it quite that fast…" she said, reaching behind to unclasp her bra. She removed it slowly, tantalizingly, until her full, enticing breasts were completely uncovered. What a nice Pair of Aces, he thought lustily.
He breathed heavily. "Slow is good, too." Unable to resist touching her any longer, he gathered her in his arms.
Clark's hands explored her smooth torso at a leisurely pace. Lois wasted no time in doing the same, running her hands across his chest, feeling the hard muscles beneath her fingertips. He pushed her gently onto the bed, and they began to kiss where they had only touched.
Neither Lois nor Clark would have ever expected that they would be kissing topless on her bed tonight. Their feelings had suddenly come to the surface today, after bubbling inside for a while. She had found out his greatest secret, and she didn't mind! In fact, it might have turned her on. But how much of it was just the heat of the moment?
Clark stopped kissing her for a moment, worried. "Lois, are you sure you want to do this?"
Lois' lips quirked. "Are you?"
Clark blushed in the candlelight.
"Is that a Royal Flush I see?" she teased.
He continued with a small uncertain grin. "My feelings for you have been changing the last few months. I can't stop thinking about you. But if you don't feel the same…"
Lois pulled him to her and gave him a long, searching kiss. "I feel something, all right."
That was all either of them needed to hear. Their kissing grew more intense, bodies on fire with passion. Clark groped for the waistband of her shorts; she arched her hips as he slid them from her body. Lois grabbed for his belt to undo it, growling in frustration when it snagged on a belt loop.
Her intensity scared and excited him, he worried her might hurt her. "Lois, maybe we should…"
"Use protection? Of course, Smallville. It's in the nightstand," she said absently while pulling down his jeans.
"No… I mean, yes, we should do that. But I meant, maybe we should slow down a little. I've never…" He paused, unsure how to put it. "…never had sex while I've been at 'full power'…"
Lois finished taking the pants off, and gave him a confused look. "But you and Lana…"
"I didn't have my powers at the time. And once I got them back, I was afraid I would hurt her." Clark looked deeply into Lois' eyes. "I don't want to hurt you either."
"Smallville," she said, bringing her face only inches from his, "I know you never would." She tenderly brushed his lips with a light kiss.
They lay down together again, bodies pressing together earnestly. Underwear, both blue and white-with-red-polka-dots, were soon discarded on the floor. Lois ran her hands up and down the length of his thighs. Looks like we have a Full House here… she thought, admiring him.
Lois let her hand drift to his manhood, and he hissed with pleasure. Stroking him up and down, first slowly, and then more quickly, Lois felt him grow and harden in her deft hands.
"Lois," he groaned, unable to bear separation from her any longer. Clark pulled her in close.
She moved to straddle him, taking his shaft in her hand again and guiding him inside her. They both gasped at the feeling of their bodies joining. Lois quickly set a rhythm, riding up and down upon him until sweat glistened on her tanned body. "Clark…" she panted, almost to climax, but not quite.
The use of his name instead of the nickname flooded him with need. In a swift motion that made her dizzy with desire, Clark turned them over, so that he was above her. He lifted her leg, so that it bent against his muscular chest, and thrust more fervently, careful to keep her unharmed.
A shrill squeal of pleasure burst from her lips as she came, sensation exploding inside her. As the feeling radiated outward, Clark continued to move inside her, and with a groan, Clark climaxed himself.
They wilted against each other, totally sated and spent. Just before drifting off to sleep, curled around him, Lois softly kissed his earlobe, and murmured, "I think I just took the whole pot."
The next morning, Clark slowly awoke to a beautiful sight. Lois lay peacefully with her head on his chest. I could really get used to this, Clark mused as he continued to watch her.
Lois began to stir slightly and slowly opened her eyes.
"Good morning," Lois greeted with a warm smile.
"Yes, it is a good morning," replied Clark as he gave her a light kiss on the lips.
For a while, they just lay there holding each other, enjoying being together when Lois asked, "Do you mind if I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead," Clark replied, still holding Lois in his embrace.
"Being affected by the meteor rock must have been tough on you, wasn't it?"
"Uh…" Clark paused nervously, gathering his thoughts before he continued. "The meteor rocks have nothing to do with my abilities."
Lois was very surprised at his answer and said, "I don't understand."
Clark knew that he had to tell Lois about his true origins. It was important for her to understand where his abilities came from so he could pursue a relationship with her. He gently moved Lois from where she lay atop of him to her side and positioned himself so that they were face to face.
"This may be hard for you to believe… but I'm not from around here," Clark began, a little worried at what Lois might think.
Before Clark could continue, Lois interrupted him, "So what? I'm not from around here either."
Clark chuckled and continued, "I don't mean that I'm not from around Smallville… I'm not from this planet."
"What do you mean?"
"I come from the planet Krypton. My biological parents sent me to Earth because my home planet was dying."
"Wow, Clark…" For the second time in less than twenty-four hours, Lois was stunned speechless. "Wow."
"Is that a good wow or a bad wow?" Clark asked, eagerly awaiting an answer.
"You know, Smallville, you are just full of surprises. And yes, that is a good wow." She thought about the times he must have used his abilities to save her, and the pieces just fell into place. "I believe that you are more human than a lot of people who are born here."
Clark cupped the sides of Lois' face and gave her an overwhelming kiss.
"That kiss the other night after dinner with your mom and Jimmy… what was that for?" Lois asked, when they finally broke apart.
"My, we are full of questions this morning," Clark replied playfully.
With a mischievous swat, Lois asked again, "Are you going to answer my questions or do I have to bring out the big guns to get you to answer?"
"Those guns of yours were wonderful," Clark recalled and he received another swat from Lois before continuing. "At first, the kiss was just to get a rise out of you. But to be honest, it was something that I had wanted to do for a while and I'm glad I did."
Clark leaned toward Lois and gave her a light kiss. "Now I have something to ask you."
"Go ahead," Lois returned, eager to learn what Clark wanted to know.
"What about that kiss you gave me?"
"That was to get back at you for kissing me the other day, not that I minded by the way. Like you said, that was something I wanted to do for a while as well. Plus it was so very worth it."
"You got that right."
They once again were locked in a deep kiss that lasted several minutes.
When they parted for some air, Lois, reveling in the feel of Clark's embrace said, "I could stay like this forever."
"Me too, but I think it's time to get ready for the day," replied Clark while he gave Lois a kiss on the top of her head.
"Aw, do we have to?" Lois asked, not wanting to leave Clark's arms.
"You know we should, sweetheart. Do you mind if I take a shower?"
"No, go right ahead."
"Care to join me?" Clark asked mischievously as he rose from the bed.
"Well, well, well. You sure have gotten bold there, Smallville," answered Lois naughtily"You bring out the best in me, Lois."
"Alright, I'll join you."
After a wonderful time in the shower of both washing and lovemaking, Lois and Clark prepared to start the day. Clark quickly dressed in order to give Lois another surprise.
"Okay, Smallville, why were you in such a hurry to…" Lois began to say when she was astonished to see what Clark had done.
"Breakfast is served, madame," Clark said in a cheesy French accent.
Lois walked over to the kitchen table to see two places set, orange juice, milk, a stack of French toast and some maple syrup.
"You never cease to amaze me, Clark," Lois said, moved at what Clark did and rewarded him with a quick kiss.
They proceeded to eat their breakfast in silence, just enjoying each other's company. Once finished, Lois cleared the table and Clark helped her with the dishes.
"Smallville, I may have to keep you around more often," Lois said as the finished with the dishes.
"I wouldn't mind that," Clark replied giving her a quick kiss. "My mom and dad raised me right."
"So, what do you have planned for today?" Lois asked while she completed putting the breakfast dishes away.
"I need to call Pete and Chloe and talk about last night. They probably think that I'm upset with them."
"You're probably right. Just go easy on them, they weren't exactly themselves at the end of our game last night."
"I will. What do you got going on today?"
"Just going to go over some state business with your mother."
"Do you think you'd be free for lunch?" Clark asked eagerly.
"I should be, why?"
"I would like to take you out, that's why."
"Good, because I accept," Lois happily answered, giving Clark a kiss.
"I'm glad. I think we need to talk about what we're going to tell others about our change in our relationship. There is a change, isn't there?"
"Of course there is, Smallville," Lois said while playfully hitting Clark in the arm. "To be honest with you, I would like to tell both your mom and Chloe about us because I'd rather have them hear it from us than anyone else."
"I agree. Just give me a call when you're free and I'll pick you up."
"Okay."
Hand in hand, Lois and Clark left her apartment. Before going their separate ways, they shared one last kiss.
AN: That's it for now and it seems that Clark and Lois' relationship has taken a serious turn and it appears to be for the better. Please let me know what you think with a review, but no flames.
