Well what can I say :) Thank you so much for all your wonderful reviews! You know who you are so give yourself a SUPER pat on the back. Because of all these wonderful reviews I worked extra hard to bring you this chapter early, I hope you enjoy it!
To say that Clark was anxious was an understatement.
Lois's cryptic remarks had him on edge all day. His mind constructing possibility after possibility of what could be wrong with Lois. By the time the end of the work day had come around, Clark wasted no time in sweeping Lois off her feet and running back to the farm.
"Whoa Clark." Lois said alittle breathlessly as Clark placed her on her feet. "How about giving a girl a little warning next time." She said and unlocked the door and walked inside. After dumping her bag and running upstairs to get changed Lois came back downstairs to find Clark sitting pensively on the couch.
"You alright Smallville?" She asked as she went over and sat by him. "You seem alittle stressed."
Clark looked at her and gave her a trademark Clark Kent smile. "Do I Lois? Well maybe if you told me how things went with Emil I'd have one thing left to worry about."
"Always in such a rush aren't we Clark." Lois said smiling. "Well I guess I've kept you in suspense long enough." Lois paused to add effect and couldn't help but grin at the look of anticipation on Clark's face. Here we go Lane. She thought to herself as she moved closer to Clark and sat on his lap.
"Emil says that the throwing up is perfectly normal for a woman in my condition and it'll most likely continue for another couple of weeks until that stage is over. So you better get used to it Smallville."
"Stage? Lois you're not making any sense." Clark asked as he held onto her hand. Lois rolled her eyes and moved his hand onto her stomach.
"Don't worry, the morning sickness stage will pass." She said and she rubbed his hand on her belly for emphasis. Clark's eyes widened as he caught on with what Lois was saying.
"Lois are you telling me that you're pregnant?" He asked hesitantly, almost as if saying it out loud would make the very idea disappear. Lois smiled and nodded.
"You're going to be a father Clark. We're going to be parents."
Clark couldn't believe what Lois was saying, not a day ago he had thought the possibility of having children was nil, but now, there was a life growing inside of Lois. Part of him wanted to X-ray her stomach just to be sure, but he knew deep down that that would be unfair seeing as Lois was yet to see their child too. Lois stared at Clark with unease as she saw that Clark had his 'thinking of all the possibility' face on, a face she'd seen only when he was upset or concerned.
"This is what you want ," Lois said hesitantly, "Clark, isn't it?"
Clark head snapped up at Lois's words. "How could I not be happy Lois?" He said picking Lois up suddenly and spinning her around. "We're going to have a baby." He whispered then gave her a passionate kiss . Lois smiled into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. She felt stupid now for thinking that Clark would not be happy with their situation.
"A little Clark ready to save the world one corn field at a time." Lois Joked as she removed her hands from Clark's neck and rested them on her stomach.
"Or a little Lois ready to take the news world by storm." Clark laughed as she placed Lois back on the ground.
"I think we could classify this as a miracle smallville." Lois said and sat back on the couch, pulling Clark down with her. Clark nodded but then a thought came to his mind, would the child be half kryptonian? Would it have his powers? Could this pregnancy harm Lois like he always thought?
"Clark?"
Lois's voice snapped Clark out of his thoughts. "Yeah sorry. I was just thinking." He replied and pulled Lois closer to him.
"Wanna share with the class?"
"I'm happy Lois, you can't imagine the happiness I'm feeling." Clark began.
"Hmmm I think I can." Lois interrupted.
"It's just, how do we know that this pregnancy won't harm you in anyway. I mean we don't know a thing about what a kryptonian pregnancy is like. How do we know that there won't be any effects on you-"
Lois cut Clark off by placing her finger over his lips. "Clark like I've told you a hundred times; I don't care about the risks. This is out child and it's going to come into the world healthy and just as super as his father, do you hear me! Now lets stop worrying about that just celebrate the fact that we finally gotten what we wanted."
Clark smiled and leaned in and gave Lois a quick kiss on the cheek. "I'm still going to want to run this by Emil." Lois chucked and pulled Clark back towards her.
"I wouldn't have it any other way."
Meanwhile…..
Darkness…..there was no light anywhere, she couldn't even make out the outline of her hands. Fumbling around she pressed every button that she could. Finally after what seemed like hours she pressed the button she was searching for. The sound of her ship opening was the most wonderful sound in the world for her, however, instead of being rewarded with air from the outside she was shocked to feel freezing water entering her ship. Alarmed she struggled to get free and then swam as fast as she could to the surface. Breaking the surface she took a lung full of air and then looked around for land. Once spotting some, she swam her fastest to the snow white surface and jumped onto land. As she surveyed her surroundings she realised that her ship must have somehow gotten strayed from its original course, as there was not another living person in sight.
Determined to carry on with her mission she began to walk through the cold snow with only one thing- or person on her mind- Kal El. She was going to find him and fulfil her destiny.
So what did you think? Too rushed? Please read and review :)
