A/N: I decide to make Lara's powers develop a little different from Clark. :)
Chapter 02 – It's your turn!
Lois and Clark were sleeping peacefully in their bed when suddenly a loud cry meaning only one thing awoke them: Lara was hungry.
"Clark, it's your turn!" Lois mumbled, still sleepy, with her eyes closed.
"Lois, she needs her mother!"
"I went in the last two times. I need my sleep, Clark!"
"But, Lois…"
"Okay, I'll go but don't think you'll always escape this easily, Mister. Tomorrow you will help with your daughter too."
Lois stood up, still very sleepy as she headed to Lara's room. The baby was in her crib crying. "Here we go!" Lois put Lara in her arms and opened her bra so Lara could suck Lois' breast. "Easy, my little vampire."
After Lara was finished, Lois put her back in her crib. Lois was getting ready to go back to the bedroom when suddenly, she noticed something.
"Clark, come here … Now!"
Lois still was looking in shock at the crib when Clark arrived in Lara's room.
"What's the matter, Lois?" Clark asked. Lois pointed out to the crib.
"Look what your daughter is doing."
To Clark's surprise, the still sleeping Lara was now floating in the crib.
"Well, we knew that this would happen sooner or later. You shared her powers when you were pregnant, remember?"
"Yeah but I didn't expect it so soon. She is only two months old, Clark."
"I know, Lois."
"And what if she uses her powers in public?" Lois asked, very worried about her baby daughter. "And if she does that in front of Luthor? He will know you are Superman."
"I know, Lois. Maybe you can talk to her. She might understand."
"At this age?" Lois asked confused looking at Clark and then to Lara.
"Sure." He put his arms around her waist, steering them back to their room. "It won't hurt if you try."
"I guess I can give a try tomorrow."
"That's my girl!"
The next day, after Clark left for the Daily Planet, Chloe came to help Lois take care of the baby. Lois opened the door after Chloe rang the bell. She grinned at her cousin, happy to see her again.
"Thanks for coming, Chlo!" Lois said hugging Chloe after closing the door.
"No problem! It's my day off from the Planet anyway. I would love to spend the day with my god-daughter and you," Chloe said entering in the apartment and putting her purse in the main table. "Any news?"
"You can see for yourself."
Lois pointed out to the crib in the living room where Lara was floating, surprising Chloe.
"She can fly already?" Chloe asked confusedly.
"Not fly. She's just floating," Lois explained looking very seriously at her beloved daughter. "Lara, I will tell you this again. You can't float with people in the house, okay? It's dangerous for mommy and daddy, especially for daddy."
Lara stopped floating, gently going back into the crib and started to squirm and wiggle, looking at Lois.
"That's my girl! Remember your god-mother, Chloe? She came to visit you!"
Chloe put Lara in her arms and smiled at Lois who smiled back. "She's so tiny!" Lara tugged on Chloe's hair. "Easy, Lara!" Chloe said, quickly removing her hair from the baby's grasp.
"Sorry!" Lois took Lara, placing her in her own arms. "She's doing that now, too!"
"So, Lara already has powers, huh? This is the only power she has?" Chloe asked curiously, sitting with Lois and Lara in the couch.
"For now, yes. But according to Clark, his powers developed very slowly too. He only discovered he could fly when he was nineteen," Lois explained as Chloe smiled.
"I remember that! I think it was after he got out of that Phantom Zone thing. He was the one who saved you and Mrs. Kent!" Chloe remembers.
"That's true! I almost forgot that!" Lois giggled before putting Lara back in her crib. "I hope Lara's powers develop very slowly too. For her own good."
"I wouldn't worry about that now, Lois. She's still so young. I think it will take a while before she develops another power."
"But what if it's different in girls? I don't know what to think, Chloe. I have to protect her because if she accidentally uses her powers in public… Clark's secret identity is history."
"That would be bad but it's better if you worry when the time comes, Lois." Chloe suggests. "You shouldn't stress about that now."
