Hey, sorry I'm late. I think I'm going to make my update day to Saturday's since Friday's aren't really working out.

Chapter 3- Prom All Over Again

Clark looked around the school. Old memories flashed by: the time he tripped in front of Lana or the times he spent inside the Torch waiting for Chloe to arrive.

"See ya Clark. I'm gonna go find Lana." Chloe said walking into the school.

Clark grabbed his red back pack and sighed. He walked up the steps of the school and went to his first class. Posters of prom queen nominations littered the walls. This part of school he did NOT miss. After his first period he waited for Chloe at her desk. He grabbed her latest article. He smiled when he saw the headline Boycott the Vote! He started to read the article and smiled at the irony of it all. Chloe walked into the office.

"Now, should I bow to you when I see you, or..."

"Cute, very cute. What about boycotting the vote, didn't anyone understand?"

"Oh they understand it perfectly." Clark said putting his hand down on the desk.

"You see you are the boycott." Clark said remembering why he had nominated her. Chloe looked puzzled.

"I mean think about it, for the last four years everybody's been trying to break out of the stereotype they've been stuck in." Clark said, the words coming out of his mouth on their own accord. He didn't have a choice of what he was saying, but he vaguely remembered saying these words all those years ago. He shrugged.

"You're the battle cry." He said looking at the newspaper again.

"Ugh, the great Smallville High prom coo. Clark, you didn't happen to have anything to do with this did you?" Chloe asked suspiciously. Clark smiled.

"I may have spoken to a few people." He said mischievously. Chloe smiled and threw a paint brush at him.

Lois woke Robin up.

"Hey, sleepy head. Time to wake up." She said smiling down at him.

"Where's mommy?" He asked. Lois frowned.

"About that, we need to talk." She said. All of a sudden she felt nervous and queasy about telling Robin that they were stuck in the past and that his mom didn't know him. So, they went downstairs for breakfast and she told him.

"That's totally awesome!" He exclaimed. Lois' eyebrows arched up in surprise.

"So, when I see my mom, I can't call her mommy? It's Chloe." He said. Lois ruffled his hair.

"You're such a smart boy." Martha came into the house.

"Oh, hi Lois." She said smiling. "I'm sorry that you can't go to the prom." She said smiling down at Robin.

"Prom?" Lois asked confused. "Oh right. I was never a dress wearing type of girl anyway." Lois said smiling.

She remembered the events of that night and didn't feel so well again. She remembered Clark telling that she had been possessed by Dawn Stiles. She needed a plan and fast.

The day went by relatively quickly for Clark, only because he was in such a daze. It was odd seeing Lana again and all his teachers. Clark got a ride back home with Chloe and she left to go home afterwards. She was still a little suspicious that something was up with Clark. Clark entered his home to the music blaring. Clark looked at his mom in surprise.

"Mom?" He said.

Not this again! It was weird the first time! He thought. His mom was dancing in the kitchen with a tub of ice cream in her hands.

"Mom! What's going on?" Again the words flew out of his mouth without his consent. It was almost like he couldn't change the past. Martha giggled.

"Hi son." She said playing with her ice cream.

"What's for dinner?" He asked.

"Dinner? Oh right." She giggled again. "Here, start with this. It's really yummy." She said giving him the ice cream. Clark looked at her oddly.

"Are you feeling okay?"

"I'm great. I was wanting to ask you," She played with her hair, "do you have a date for the prom yet?" She almost looked like she was flirting with him. Clark's skin crawled.

"Mom, I told you, I'm not going to the prom."

Where the heck is Lois? He thought.

"What!" She asked in disbelief. Clark stepped back in surprise.

"You have to go!"

"Well I... where's Lois?" He asked, finally being able to speak what he wanted.

"Lois Lane!" His mother rolled her eyes. "You can't be serious. She's totally not into you. Clark, your prom is the most memorable night of your life. I am not going to let you miss it. You can take me." Clark's eyebrows shot up.

"Mom, you're already going remember? With dad, you're chaperons."

"Oh, yeah, right, cool." She said rolling her eyes. A door closed upstairs.

"Achoo!" Clark heard Lois. He sighed in relief. He heard Shelby whine. Lois came down the stairs and sneezed again. Robin was nowhere in sight, though.

"Agh, I swear the dog knows I'm allergic." Lois whined. Clark smiled and rolled his eyes.

"He follows me around wherever I go, he's torturing me."

"Sooo, this is your little secret." Martha spat out. "You're taking her to the prom, aren't you?" Lois and Clark laughed.

"Lois?"

"Mrs. Kent, a lot of things are possible in this world, but there will be a man on Mars before Clark and I go to the prom together." Lois said. She found it funny how she had never pictured being with Clark as a teen.

"So what, you two just get together and mack and keep it on the down low in public?" She said spitefully.

"Mom!"

"I don't mean to be rude, Mrs. Kent, but, uh did you crack open the cookie sherry?"

"Of course not, I'm just super pumped about prom." Clark and Lois looked at each other.

"Well I'm gonna go." She whined.

"Mom, maybe I should take you to the Talon tonight."

"The Talon? Oh right I work there. Um, no I can drive myself. Laters!" Once she was gone it felt as if a weight was off their shoulders. They could talk freely now.

"Where's Robin?" Clark asked in a rush.

"Don't worry Clark, he's safe. I dropped him off at the neighbours. They're taking care of him until this whole thing blows over." She said. Clark sighed in relief.

"Take off your rings and uh..." Clark looked around the kitchen. He found the flour pot and opened it.

"Put them in here for now." He said. Lois tugged at her rings.

"That's weird. It's like my fingers have swollen." She tugged at them once more and they finally came off. She buried them in the flour.

"Okay, I should go to the Talon. I think that's what I did?" He thought about it for a second.

"Clark go!" Lois pushed him out the door.

"Right, okay bye." He went into his truck and drove to the Talon.

Once inside the Talon he saw Lana. Lana! Right, she had been possessed too. Even though, he knew what she would tell him, it was like a pull and he had to say the words that came out of his mouth.

"Lana, have you seen my mom?"

"Forget about your mom, Clark. I have been meaning to ask you something."

"Yeah sure what is it?"

"Well, I know that it's kinda last minute, but I thought it would be totally amazing if we went to prom together."

"Us?" Lana smiled. Clark remembered how that had been his dream for so long, but all he could think of now was getting through the night and getting Lois, Robin and him back home safely.

"Lana, what about Jason?" He asked suspiciously.

"Clark it's you I want to go with. Don't you want to go with me?"

"Well, I mean, I..."

"Awesome, it's a date. I've got to get back to the school and help set up. They're lost without me. Laters."

"Okay, I definitely don't want to go through this whole prom thing again. What to do to change this whole thing?" Lois asked herself, pacing Clark's room.

"No Lane. You can't change the past. Ugh, there's no friggin' way out of this!" She groaned to herself.

Clark got home late that night. Lois was ranting to herself and Robin was still at the neighbours. Lois told him there was a little boy that lived there so Robin would be safe and kept entertained.

"Hey." Clark said, putting his hand on her shoulder. Lois had tears running down her cheeks.

"What if we can't get back home? Where are our present selves, are they in the future, limbo? This could mess everything up! What if because of this we never get married or Robin's never born?" Lois asked him. Clark hugged her.

"It's all going to be alright." Clark soothed her.

"No, it's not!" She said.

"I found something out the night before we were sent to this time... something really big." Clark chuckled.

"Lois, no matter what it is, the story can wait." Clark said. Lois shook her head.

"Clark, I'm pregnant." She said. Clark stared at Lois, his head reeling.

"Wh-what?" He stuttered. "Are you sure?" He asked.

"Positive." She said. "I even took a test, I've been feeling sick, my boobs hurt and my fingers and feet are swollen." She complained. Clark hugged her tightly.

"I'll go talk to Jor-El tonight." Lois shook her head.

"You can't, we have to wait until this passes over. We can't change anything." She said. Clark nodded slowly. Things just got really complicated.

In the morning Lois awoke alone in bed and walked downstairs. Clark was folding the blankets on the couch and Martha was making breakfast. Clark smiled up at her.

"Hey." He said softly. He looked around and then walked up and kissed her.

"How are you?" He asked.

"Okay." She said.

"Breakfast!" Martha called out.

Lois went down to the hospital later on. She didn't remember why she had gone but something was pulling her there.

"Miss, maybe I can help you." A nurse said, after she had complained to the man behind the desk about her allergies to dogs. And that's all she remembered before she blacked out.

"Let's play a game." Robin said to the older boy.

"What?" The boy asked curiously.

"I'm from the future and you're from the past." Robin explained.

"That sounds awesome." The older boy said in excitement.

"Hi, my name is Robin Queen and I'm from 2018. Who're you?"

"My name is Joseph Jenkins and I'm from the year 2005." He said. They kept playing and making up silly devices from the future. Robin liked this game, this way he wasn't really lying.

Clark was flipping through his old year book, thinking of the past heard his parents coming down the stairs. He turned around.

"Hey, you guys look great." He exclaimed.

"Clark the only reason we agreed to be chaperons is because of you."

"I know, it's a little backwards. My parents are going to the prom and I'm staying home to wait up for them."

"Son," Johnathan said, "When you're older, we don't want you to look back on high school and regret not going to the prom."

Oh I don't regret going, we stopped an almost catastrophic night. He thought.

"Dad, I'm not sure standing by the punch bowl and watching bad dancing is a memory I'm going to cherish."

"I'm not so sure about that Clark." Johnathan chuckled. "I'll bring the truck around." Clark was alone with his mom.

"I think I know why you're not going tonight."

"Mom, I..." He couldn't make the words come out. It's like he had to follow a script that he was given. So other words came out instead, the words of the past.

"When I was freshman I remember watching the seniors going to prom. The guys in there tuxes and the girls in their dresses... I guess I always thought that would be Lana and me."

"Oh Clark things don't always end up the way you picture them, sometimes they can end up even better if you give them a chance."

You were always right, mom. Clark thought, he wanted to smile and thank her for that advice and tell her how true her words were.

"If you change your mind, I put your tux by the door."

"You rented me a tux?" He asked.

"Just in case." She hugged her son.

"Mom." She laughed and left.

"Well." Lois was at the top of the stairs in a dress. "How do I look?" She said, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Looks like you're going to the prom."

"I am." She said cheerily. Dawn had taken over his wife... again.

"And you're taking me." She said with a huge smile.

That isn't Lois' smile, he thought.

"I'm not gonna let you sit around, mopping all night when your parents do the electric boogaloo all night. It's gonna be fun."

"No, I, I, I, um, I'm not going." He said, shaking his head.

"Massive re-strategy, you're going to your senior prom whether you like it or not. End of discussion. Put on your tux."

"Lois, wasn't this not in the realm of possibilities?"

"Anything's possible, Clark, anything." She said, smiling.

Clark was standing at the punch bowl as he kept a watchful eye on his wife. He turned around and saw Chloe. He smiled at her.

"Hey, haven't I seen you here before?"

"Well, maybe this time we won't be having any natural disasters."

"I'm really surprised that you made it." She said smiling at him.

"Yeah, well, remember all those regrets we were talking about? Well, I think not seeing you with a crown on your head is at the top of that list." Chloe was flattered.

"I'm glad you're here."

"Clark! Clark!" Lois screeched, ruining the moment.

"It's called an escort for a reason."

"And you're here... in pink, huh, why?" Chloe said suspiciously.

"I came to, uh, cheer you on, of course." They announced prom queen and king. Chloe won. Lois hugged Chloe. Lois woke from her daze. Chloe walked on stage.

"What the hell am I doing in a dress? No actually don't answer that. I remember now. Show time." She said looking at Clark then she turned to look at her cousin, who was standing on stage.

"Out of all the days we could've landed here, it had to be prom." Lois complained under her breath. Clark chuckled at her and then turned serious when he looked at Chloe again.

"I promise that this will be a night I will always remember and you will never forget." She said at the end of her speech.

"Follow her!" Lois pushed him towards Chloe's path.

"Be safe." He whispered to her.

"I will." She nodded at him. Clark saw Jonathan at the bottom of the steps.

"Dad! Dad are you okay?" He asked, helping him up.

"Um, yeah, it's just Chloe, she's not acting like herself. She took off down the stairs. I-I'm fine."

"Dad, I need you to get something for me." Jonathan nodded. Clark asked him to get the Kryptonite after he told him why. Jonathan took off in a rush. Once in the basement Chloe took a mop and set in on fire. She threw at the oil, but luckily Clark caught it.

"How did you do that?" She asked surprised.

"I know it's you Dawn and you don't want to do this."

"All those years I kept trying to be what everyone else wanted and it turns out those losers don't even care. This was supposed to be the best night of my life and they laughed at me."

"Let Chloe go."

"I will. See Clark there's a whole life after high school and I can be whoever I want." She touched Clark and he blacked out.

"Clark?" Chloe asked confused. He took her crown.

"The crown's mine, bitch." He slapped her across the room.

"Genius." He picked up the fiery mop.

"Dawn!" Jonathan yelled out.

"Seriously Mr. Kent, you can't stop me."

"It may be true but I can stop my son." He took out the Kryptonite and Clark fell to the ground.

"What are you doing? What is that? No!"

"It's time for you to leave Dawn." After a short struggle Dawn was released from Clark's body. Jonathan threw the rock away and stopped the oil.

"Chloe." Clark said once he was up. He ran to her and helped her up.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine thanks." She said. Clark bent down and picked up her crown.

"I think you dropped something. Congratulations, Chloe."

Clark went back to the dance.

"Problem solved." He told Lois.

"Dance with me?" He asked. Lois looked over at Lana.

"History is written Clark." Clark followed her gaze.

"Go." She says.

"Lois, I think we can change a little bit of history."

"No." She said stubbornly. "Please go." She walked over to Chloe.

Clark danced with Lana like he did all those years ago. He wanted to dance with Lois, but... history was written, like she said.

After the prom Lois and Clark sat on his bed watching Robin sleep.

"A baby, huh?" He said, smiling at her. She nodded and smiled back. He kissed her and for a moment everything was perfect.

Please review! Next chapter will be about what happened to the past Lois and Clark.
