AUGUST
When you're on the beach you steal the show...
"Where's Lois?" Chloe asks Clark while threading some marshmallows on a skewer.
"How should I know?" throwing some more wood on the bonfire. "Where's Jimmy?" he retorts back.
"He's finishing up an assignment," looking over at him. "A little trouble in paradise?" quirking one eyebrow.
He sports a frown on his face as he sits down in front of the fire. ""We had a little tiff an hour ago and I don't know if she's coming tonight," taking the skewer from her and sticking it into the fire.
"What did you fight about?" she asks as she threads another skewer.
"It was so silly," pulling the skewer out and spreading the marshmallow in between a couple graham crackers, then slipping a piece of chocolate between them. "She came downstairs wearing a one-piece bathing suit and..."
"And...what?"
"She asked me how it looked on her and I told her."
"What exactly did you tell her?" she asks him.
"I told her it looked nice," he replies.
"Nice? Just nice?" looking curiously at him.
" I couldn't very well tell her what I really thought," looking back at her.
"What did you really think?"
"I didn't think the color was all that flattering on her," he admits.
"So why didn't you tell her that? You know Lois would rather hear the truth."
"I know," sighing a little. "I just didn't want to hurt her feelings. To be honest, I would rather see her wearing the red bikini she wore that time when A.C. saved her from drowning. Now that looked amazing on her," a wistful smile on his face.
"You mean this one, Smallville?"
They both look up to see Lois standing there wearing the same bikini. Clark stands up and walks over to her. "Lois, I-"
"No need to apologize," resting her hand on his chest. "I overreacted," smiling up at him. "But next time you be honest with me. Okay?" punching him on the shoulder.
"Okay," capturing her lips with his as his arms wrap around her waist.
"You know, I think I'm going to head on home," Chloe says suddenly; getting up from the blanket and slipping on her shorts over her bathing suit. "Something tells me I'm just going to be in the way," picking up her tote bag.
They don't hear her as they continue to kiss. "So you think I look amazing in a bikini, do you?" she says teasingly after their lips pull apart.
"Oh yeah," his hands moving down from her back to cup her backside and giving them a little squeeze. "Nobody looks better in a bikini than you," smiling down at her.
"So is it safe to say that I steal the show when I'm on the beach wearing this thing?" her finger gliding along her cleavage.
"You steal the show wherever you are," lowering his lips again...
