Lana's voice boomed over the speakerphone.

"Hi Lana." Clark replied, distracted by what had almost happened with Lois.

"Clark, I am just calling to let you know that I want to take a break from our relationship." Lana announced.

"What?"

"Even you must admit it hasn't been working lately between us."

"Have you met someone else?" Clark asked curiously.

"Can we talk about it when you get off the farm."

"So there is someone else?" he repeated.

"Don't turn this back on me Clark. This is mostly your fault." Lana remarked.

Clark remained unbelievably calm. "I am not blaming you, I just wanted to know if there was someone else."

"How can you expect me to go out with someone who treats me as though I am repulsive?" Lana ranted.

Clark just looked at Lois, who had actually managed to raise a smile at Lana's antics. He smiled back. "When did I say you were repulsive?" Clark asked.

"Come on, you must do. We haven't had sex yet. That's not normal. I have tried to seduce you so many times and you keep rejecting me. I have had to lie to Chloe about our love life. It is just so embarrassing."

Clark fired back. "Maybe if you hadn't acted so desperate all the time I would have."

Lois was laughing now, although she was a little shocked by the revelation of celibacy between Lana and Clark.

"You have a real problem Clark. That secret of yours tore us apart."

"What secret Lana? You are so obsessive!"

"I am glad you are stuck in the house. At least now you have to put up with that pathetic little cow that you can't stand. Bet you two are having so much fun." She laughed sarcastically.

"We are now." Lois came over and replied down the phone. "Bet you didn't know you were on speakerphone."

That comment was met with the sound of a dead line.

Lois looked at Clark and grinned. "You deserved a sainthood for going on with her. How did you manage it for so long. She really is a sandwich short of a picnic."

Clark nodded "Now where were we?" he tried to kiss Lois, but that was when her demeanour changed.

"What are you doing?" Lois asked as she pulled away.

"I thought something was happening between us."

"There is nothing between us except negative energy Smallville. If you can see an attraction you must be blind." She quipped.

Clark backed off. "Lois, you cannot deny there is something between us. The tension is electrifying. I'll wait..."

"Well you will be waiting for a long time." She replied.

"We have a whole week. I bet you can't resist the Smallville charm for much longer." He teased.

The mood lightened. "Wanna bet?" she challenged him playfully.

Clark smiled. This was going to be one long period of foreplay. Lois was a tough nut to crack and he knew he would be lucky to get a peck on the cheek by the end of the week, but she was worth challenge. If he was being honest with himself, he was going to enjoy the chase.

The fact Lana dumped him only made things easier on his conscience. She was right though, things had been going downhill for the past two months and the fact he would not commit to a deeper relationship only served to highlight that maybe Lana and he were not meant to be.

He missed the old Lana, the one who would greet him with that gorgeous warm smile whenever he walked into the Talon. Ever since she had gone with Jason she had become very confident, but not in a good way. She expected Clark to run every time she clicked her finger and a year ago he would, but he had changed since he had met Lois.
She had made him gain a backbone, and it was just today he realised that simmering under the bickering was an attraction that was desperate to come to the surface.

But now the cards were down and this was going to be fun...

10.56am

After coffee, Clark asked Lois if she wanted to go horse riding again.

"I think we might give it a rest for a while. My ankle feels a little swollen and sore."

"Do you want me to look at it?" Clark asked.

She looked at him suspiciously. "Why would you offer to do that?"

"Because I am a nice person and I want to make you feel better. Any friend would do that for you." Clark replied with a straight face.

"Ok then." She sat on the sofa and put her foot on Clark's lap.

He took off her sock and placed his hand on her foot. She had forgotten to mention how ticklish her feet her and when he made contact her foot started to squirm around in his lap.

He grabbed her foot to stop it moving around. He hoped she did not realise why. He started to massage her foot gently, and within seconds moans were escaping from her mouth.

"Not just ticklish, I see." He chuckled.

Lois glared at him. "Smallville, shut up and continue and please don't stop until I tell you to do so."
He could see that she was getting in to this foot rub so he moved it up a gear, applying more pressure. The more pressure he applied, the louder her moans became. She started to press her heel into his lap again. Now it was Clark's turn to let out a moan.

Lois opened her eyes when she heard it. "Are you getting off on this Smallville, or should I say Clark Jr?" she grinned.

"Well Lois, look what you are you doing with your foot."

"But you're not normal!" She announced trying to imitate Lana.

"Oh Lois, believe me. I am normal in that respect." Clark replied, losing his usual shyness at discussing such a personal topic. "Anyway you seemed to be enjoying your foot massage."

"Ok I admit I was. In fact if that is what a foot massage feels like, I cannot imagine how a full body massage would feel like." She hinted.

"Lois, strip off. Your wish is my command."

"No, we'd better not..." Lois replied as she bit her lip and her eyes glowed. "But then again, I don't think I can resist."

She ran upstairs in to the bedroom and stripped off as quickly as she could. She realised that she would not be holding out much longer, she has realised in the last 24 hrs that she was absolutely crazy about him. Did she just say crazy about him, she was usually driven crazy by him.

Despite all the bravado she presented to the world, she was not the experienced 19 year-old that everyone considered her to be. She had come close on numerous occasions to going all the way with other boyfriends, but Clark had no inkling that she wanted him to be her first.

She came downstairs dressed only in a towel. Clark looked at her and could not help himself. "Lo, you are so beautiful. I have never told you before but have always thought it." He went red.

"Thanks, you're not too bad yourself." She said remembering the occasions she had seen his body in a state of partial and even full undress. He had such a muscular and toned body, something she had put down to all the farm-work he did.

She lay down on the sofa. Clark had managed to get some massage oils from somewhere.

"Where did you get those from?" Lois asked.

"Parent's stash."

"Urgh...you mean they still..."

"Lois, they are not that old."

He lowered the towel down and started to work his large hands down the small of her back and then back up to her neck. Lois had never experienced anything like this from a massage. It was almost as though his hands knew exactly where her every pleasure point was. There was no doubt where this was leading.

Clark could tell from her increasing volume of moans that his hands were having the desired effect. He had never felt such a connection with someone and wondered how he had missed it for so long. Even though nothing had happened yet, he could not imagine loving anyone like he did Lois. He could not bear it any longer.

"Turn over, Lois." He whispered in her ear. She did as he asked.

He pulled her up for a kiss that grew more heated by the moment whilst their hands roamed all over each other's bodies. She moaned into his mouth, her hand going up to his head, running her fingers into the dark hair while the other hand worked to open his belt which proved to be difficult because of her lust.

His trousers fell down to reveal Scooby Doo boxer shorts. "Talk about passion killers. Where's your snoopy boxers?"

"in the wash. Now shut up, I don't plan on keeping them on for much..." he did not manage to get his last word out before her lips silenced him.

"The bedroom?" he managed to ask in between the kisses.

"Ok", she breathed and moaned as he picked her up and quickly headed up the stairs. He got to the bedroom and threw her to the bed. He stood over her for a few seconds, taking in her gorgeous form and the realisation of what was about to happen.

He lowered himself gently next to her, so he did not hurt her. She was desperate for more and plunged her mouth to his. The passion was running out of control and however hard they tried it was not enough and they tried to step it up a notch. This was pure obsession, the need to experience each other was intoxicating and overpowering.

Eventually they both reached their peaks, and collapsed on the bed on a heap from a mixture of sheer exhaustion and pure ecstasy...
