Ok so here is Chapter 3. Thanks for the reviews I'm not sure if many people are interested in this fic so a long as you keep the reviews coming I'll know to keep going.
Chapter 3
Lois leaned against Clark's locker and looked at her watch. He should have been here by now. She glanced up when Principal Himbry came over the P.A. system reminding kids to go straight home. Did he just say he loved us? Lois thought. She heard noise coming from down the hall and saw Stu Macher coming down the hallway with his girlfriend Tatum Riley. Stu was a class clown, she had 3 classes with him and he kept the class in stiches.
"Lois" he called out when he saw her. "Party at my house tonight! You and Kent should come, can't have a party without the star quaterback and his girl."
"I'm not his girl." she protested but Tatum interruptred.
"Well then you should be because that boy is yummy." she said with a growl.
"Anyways" Stu interrupted shooting his girlfriend a dirty look. "Party starts at 8, it's gonna be killer, muhahaha" he said as they walked off. Lois could hear Stu asking Tatum what she meant by Clark being yummy and Tatum telling him to grow up.
Lois sighed normally a party in this sleepy town would be right up her alley but a party full of drunk teens, little to probably no adult supervison and a psycho killer runnning around just seemed like a diaster in the making. A hand clamped onto her shoulder and she let out a yelp and turned to see Clark.
"What the hell Smallville." she yelled smacking him on the arm. "You scared the crap out of me, where have you been?"
"I'm sorry Lois I really didn't mean to scare you I swear. Coach called a quick meeting after class to remind us about curfew and in his own subtle way point out that if we get ourselves killed our chances of a State Championship will be nil. I swear, two kids get murdered and they only thing people can think about are our chances at a trophy." he muttered getting his stuff out of his locker.
"Well in other news, we were invited to a party tonight." Lois said and Clark looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"And you want to go?" he asked.
"Hell no, any other time, any other newsday sure. Stu Macher is hosting it. Also if he and Tatum ever break up I think you have a good shot with her." Lois said a sparkle in her eye.
"Tatum?" Clark asked a deer caught in the headlighs look. "She's nice and all but she's kind of um."
"She'd eat you alive Smallville." Lois said with a laugh. "Don't worry I'll protect you if she decides to get her claws into you. It was funny they thought you and I were an item."
"You and me?" Clark asked, the idea seemed foreign to him but not necessarily bad, He blushed no way in hell would he let Lois know that though.
"Yeah funny huh?" Lois said nudging him with her elbow. They walked past Principal Himbry's office and had it not been for the large blue glowing paperweight sitting on the desk, Clark's superhearing would have caught the struggle going on in the office and the ending of the man's life.
They pulled into the video store parking lot and headed inside.
"The sooner we get home the better," Lois said as they entered the building.
"So grab everything funny and run. Whoa, looks like everyone had the same idea as us. The place is packed." Clark said looking at the crowded store. They headed for the comedy section which wasn't too busy. Ironically everyone was in the horror section.
"Shoot for Adam Sandler, Will Farrell, and Chris Farley." Lois said scanning the titles before her.
She heard a familiar voice and looked up to see Stu talking to Randy Meeks .
"There is Stu, think of an excuse if he mentions the party." Lois said to Clark.
"The police are always off track with this shit! If they'd watch Prom Night, they would know. There is a formula to it, a very simple formula! EVERYONE IS A SUSPECT!" came the excited shout from Randy across the store. Everyone stopped what they were doing and fell silent as they stared at him, while Stu looked embarrassed.
"I think we have a good amount plus the funny ones back at the house." Clark said.
"I'm going to grab some junk food when we get up to the registers. I know your mom got us health food to live off of but I don't she supplied the junk." Lois said eyeing the aisle of candy, microwave popcorn, and soda.
They were heading to the counter when Clark heard his name called out.
"Kent, hey Kent." he turned as Stu walked up to him. "How are you doing man? Did the lovely Ms. Lane tell you about the party at my house tonight, you have to come."
"Yeah she did tell me, but unfortunatley we have a family get together we can't skip out of." Clark said sounding bummed about missing the party. Lois was impressed with his acting. "But hey man if we get done early we will be sure to stop by." Clark said.
"Great dude, because it's going to be awesome I mean they are going to talk about this party for generations to come man." Stu said.
"Because what could go wrong with a party and a crazed killer running amok?" asked Randy joining the group.
"Are you skipping the party Randy?" Lois asked.
"Nah even though everything in my gut says stay away, I will be there and will probably will regret it." he muttered. He blushed slightly at Lois's attention, his heart belonged to Sydney Prescott but that didn't mean he was immune to a beautiful woman. "Hey Clark how are you doing?"
"I'm good Randy." Clark answered, he always liked Randy he had always been a geek like Clark before he joined the football team.
"Clark, we should get going, we promised your mom we would be home soon." Lois lied.
"Yeah we should go, but hey if we don't see you guys tonight have a great time." Clark called out leading Lois to the checkout counter as she grabbed some junk food. "Is it me or is Stu a little more amped up than usual?"
"I think everyone is a little wired." Lois said grabbing their purchase while Clark paid.
They headed out to the truck and Lois noticed how low the sun was in the sky. She usually loved fall when it started to get dark early, but today she could go for endless sunshine. She still couldn't get over how still the town was as an eerie calm seemded to settle in. Would the town ever return to normal.
They pulled onto the road headed home, neither realizing how many things would change over night.
Ok so the first time I did this K-site erased all my work and even though it was saved I couldn't get to it so I had to rewrite everything so I'm hoping I got it all back in the story :)
