ON WITH THE FICCIE
Chapter 2
When Superman left the hospital that morning, it was chaotic. The doctors insisted that he stayed longer than necessary to make sure he was ready and the officers questioned him about the New Krypton that was now floating somewhere in space. Finally after talking with the police, he flew away from the hospital exhausted only to hear the cheers of the citizens for his return. He smiled as her heard their voices.
Flying to his newly found apartment he landed in the window unseen and changed into a plaid shirt and jeans. All the employees at the daily planet had a few days off, because of the whole globe incident. His suit was too hot for this time of year and truly he was a farm boy at heart.
He was surprised when he heard a knock at his door. Walking forward he found the one person he thought would never show up.
Lois's beautiful brown eyes that once held fire in them, now gazed at him with tears in them. Her brown hair resting at her shoulders was messy like she had just got out of bed.
She stumbled into him and hugged his tall frame, suprising him. He stared at her from behind his thick brown glasses trying to hide his confusion and worry.
For a minute he just held her and let her sob on his shoulder, than led her to his couch.
"Lois, wha-
"Richard and I broke up" she blurted out before Clark could finish his sentance. She blushed when she realized this, and ducked her head slightly. "And I needed a friend.
Clark looked at her bewildered He had never thought that Lois thought of him even as a friend. A friendly co-worker, but nothing more!
"What happened?" he asked, having a good idea about why she was upset. She must have told him!
"I told him that I loved someone else, and that we should break up" she said miserably. This was all true but the only way to tell him without letting slip that Jason was really Superman's son, made her sound like a slut. Moving between guys.
Clark kept silent waiting for her to continue. When she didn't he sighed.
"Well, gee Lois, I don't know how I can help you" he said trying to sound more like Clark and not Superman.
He was even more surprised when she let out a laugh, and put her hand over her mouth to stop the giggles.
"You are helping Clark, just like that. Making me laugh" she said after she got her laughing fit under control. He smiled at her.
She stopped suddenly and turned serious.
"Look, Clark. I want to say that I am sorry, for how I have been treating you these last weeks. I was distracted with the whole Superman thing and than Richard" she said softly.
He didn't say anything and she continued.
"I want to hear all about your trip though" she said putting a friendly hand on his arm.
He smiled and than she noticed his clothes, he blushed. She laughed again at his embarrassed face.
"I didn't want to wear my suit, if there was no work" he said still blushing. She smiled.
"You look good, Clark. I think this look suits you more" she said truthfully. She gazed into his eyes and saw a spark of recognition.
He quickly lowered his gaze and hoped that she had thought it was only a trick of the light.
"So where's Jason?" he asked trying to change the subject. She didn't answer right away lost in his gaze and than turned to him.
"He's with Richard" she replied softly.
"Look Clark, I have to go. I am moving into an apartment near the Daily Planet and I need to finish moving. I just stopped by on my break" she said quickly. He nodded and stood up, showing her the door. She hugged him one more time but this one was longer and she was almost hesitant to let go.
They parted and she said goodbye, than almost ran to the elevator. When the door closed she leaned against the sides taking deep breaths. There was no way, that they were the same person.
"But his eyes, they were the same. I never noticed how much him and Superman looks alike. But it can't be possible ,can it? Can Clark Kent be Superman?"
