Chapter 14: Cruise (Day 1) It's about to be a WhAT! Girlfight!
Their moment of joy was soon disrupted with the squeal of one particular person, who Lois personally didn't look forward to seeing, and her blood ran cold when she made her presence known.
"I'm so thrilled you guys could make it!" she strolls over, clad in yet another skanky outfit. Placing herself next to Clark, actually pushing away a complete stranger so she could sit next to him.
"Especially happy to see you here, Handsome." She drawing a finger along his face, tracing the curves of his jaw structure.
Lois could feel her rage flare up again, Chrissy was definitely asking for her ass to be kicked, practically begging for it. Chloe across the table mouthing "Stay Calm" seem to make her all the more angry.
"Shut up!" Lois mouthed back to her Cuz, Chloe only rolling her eyes in response.
Clark pulls his face away from Chrissy's touch, she becoming a bit offended by his action but plays it off. Lois couldn't help but grin smugly in her water glass.
"So, did you guys enjoy the show?" Chrissy asked, not one to be put on the spot.
Everyone gave their replies, nodding their heads in agreement.
"It was pretty good, especially those guys with the fire." Bart saids, excitedly.
"Yea, it was exciting." Lana adds in.
"Seen better." Lois mutters, just to aggravate Chrissy.
Chrissy ignored her remarks, and rolled her eyes. "Good, good I'm glad you guys enjoyed it.' she turns to Clark tracing her fingers along his bare arm. "I've especially enjoyed your performance. Couldn't quite get the right swing in your hips, but I'm sure that's not a problem in the area, where it counts." giving him a seductive wink.
Lois snorts into her water at what Chrissy said, coughing as the water enter down the wrong pipe in her throat. Bart immediately scoots over to her side, and pats her on the back.
"Dude, you okay?" Bart asks, stopping the beating on her back.
"Yea, just fine." Lois seethes, cutting her eyes at Chrissy, who just wore an "unconcerned" expression.
The drumming began to sound again, stopping whatever Dominatrix Lane was going to do to Chrissy, the hula clad workers strolled over to all the tables. Placing down huge trays of food, each dish a different Tropical prepared meal.
"Dude, it's about freakken time. I'm starving." Bart licking his lips, eying the delectable dishes.
They stared at Bart as he stuffed his plate and mouth with the food. "What?" he shrugs his shoulders. "Dude, I'm hungry."
They only shook their heads and began to fill their own plates, sighing in pleasure as they sampled the buffet food in front of them. More waitresses came around, this time carrying trays of different tropical drinks in a variety of colors. Lois' hand quickly shoots out grabbing a big circular glass filled with crushed ice and a blue liquid, fruit decorating the rim of the glass with a spiraled red straw.
"Loi-..." Clark rolls his eyes. "...-la" warning sounding in his tone as she took the drink.
"God, Smallville are you my dad now."
"Point to Smallville- Err um I mean Mr Kent." Chloe saids through a mouth full of food.
Chrissy looks at them confused, not getting what game they're playing and shakes her head. "Don't worry, they're all non-alcoholic. You guys "are" underage and I can't be responsible for you, just myself."
Lois drops her drink to the table not even bothering with it since there wouldn't be any joy of a buzz afterwords. Bart on the other hand was gulping down the tall glass filled liquid, he took from the tray. Not coming up for air until he drunk at least half of the glass.
"Dude, that was awesome!" Bart saids, shacking his head a bit dizzy, he presumes from the lack of air. "Now, that is what I call a rush."
Chrissy rolls her eyes at Bart's behavior. "Anyway..." she saids picking up a piece of juicy meat from her plate. "Here, this is the best steak cooked in the world."
Before he could object, Chrissy stuffs the steak into his mouth, letting her fingers linger on his lips. Clark staring nervously at her, feeling Lois' eyes from across the table, burn through him.
"Dude, that Chrissy chick is hitting on your man!" Bart saids leaning into Lois.
"Clark isn't..." She looks at him strangely before shrugging him off. "...Are you okay?"
Bart looks at her, his lips curled into a goofy grin. "Never better."
Lois shakes her head dismissing his weird behavior off, before grabbing a handful of grapes. Clark feels 1, 2 then a 3rd thing bouncing off his head. He looks up to see Lois quickly dropping her head down, acting like she's been eating. Bart has a sluggish smile on his face and eyes drooping down.
"Yo, Dude it was her!" he points lazily to Lois, who's head shoots up to glare at him.
"What is wrong with you!" Lois growls, then goes in to inspect Bart closer. "Are you drunk?"
Bart starts giggling uncontrollably, ranting off whatever comes into his mind. "Dude, Lois is so gonna put your ass in the dog house, if she ever found out. No more being locked into a room with you. Not that you were really stuck, with your super strength and all. You coulda easily broken that door knob or even torn down the whole door!"
Clark's face drained of color, he swore he died and came back to life in that instant, Chloe's and AC's expression just as bad. Lois looks oddly at Clark, he hoping she couldn't hear his heart pounding inside his chest.
"Is that boy, okay?" Chrissy asked, just as confused as Lois and Lana.
Clark eyes stared frozen onto Lois', unable to move them even if he wanted too. "He's drunk!"
"No way!" Chrissy argues. "I made sure those drinks had not one ounce of alcohol in them."
Lois sniffs Bart's drink, taking a small sip. "Someone definitely spiked it. He's wasted!"
Bart busts out laughing, pounding his hand down on the table. "Ha ha wasted!" he wipes at the tears pooling in his eyes. "Something you won't have to worry about Clark or um...Carlos. Ha ha."
"Bart!" Chloe scolded.
Lois looked at him, interested in what he had to say. "What do you mean, Clark can't get wasted?"
"Lois, Bart is out of it. He doesn't know what he's saying." Chloe quickly says, trying to get the conversation from heading into what they were fearing.
"I-I dew sow." Bart's voice slurring. "...and you know about Carlos too!"
Lois looks accusingly at Chloe, her brain churning with thoughts of all the things Bart was saying. It was far-fetched, but weird things have always seem to happen around Clark. How he's always miraculously there just in time to save the day, saving her own life countless times. She never knowing how he ever found out where she is at, just to save her in the nick of time. His speedy disappearing acts, one minute he's there and before you could even blink, he's gone.
"Dude, you have got to be the most dumbest girl in the world. Really, really slow, you didn't even figure it out by now...And you call yourself a reporter!"
"Excuse me!" Lois in total shock by what he said.
"Figure out what?" Lana suspicious mind, quips out.
"That Clark is an ali..."
Clark's heart raced faster then what he could have ran in super speed. He felt as if he would faint, the tension and eyes all around resting on what Bart would say. He felt like screaming but no sound would come out, he wanted to get away from everyone but he found himself stuck where he was.
"Clark's what!" Lana screamed, impatient by Bart's hesitancy in speech.
Bart leaned forward like he was telling some top government secret for their ears only. "Clark is an...ali...an alligator."
He leaned back hugging his arms around his stomach as laughter poured form his mouth.
Lana slumped back, disappointed yet again to find nothing out about Clark's secrets. Lois crosses her eyes at Bart, wanting to pick up the silver tray on the table and whack him over the head with it. Clark exhales heavily, life coming back to his stopped heart.
"Yup, that boy is gone." Lois sighs, rolling her eyes.
"Come on Bro, I'm taking you back to the room so you can sleep this off." AC saids, standing to his feet and going over to Bart.
"Dude, not Cool!" Bart groans. "I wanted to go swimmie with the fishy. Yo, Lois I bet you didn't know your Ex here, can talk to fish and make water bombs." Bart laughs out as AC wraps Bart's arm around his neck and helps him to stand.
Lois pats his leg. "That's right Bart and men can fly, too."
"They can, they can! Clark learned last summer." he starts laughing harder. "You've shoulda seen when he first tried, his ass fell into a large pile of cow crap!"
"Well if people could fly, that sounds just about right of Clarkie here."
Clark and Chloe smiled weakly, Lois not knowing how true those words were, her voice shaky. "Poi...Point...to Mr Kent."
"Damn! I keep forgetting." Lois snarks, then places a teasing grin to Chloe. "Geez, Chlo you sure do know how to pick em."
Chloe rolls her eyes and sticks out her tongue at the laughing Lois.
"Bart get some rest." Clark saids with concern.
"Dude, I love you man." Bart slurs hanging on AC's neck. AC arm wrapped around his mid-section, to keep Bart from slipping down.
"Yea, same here, buddy." Clark replied.
They watched as AC helped Bart walk off, Bart yelling something incoherent about wanting to fly with the dolphins.
Lois shakes her head. "And I thought people from Smallville were weird."
"Point to me." Clark knowing it wasn't true, just trying to break the ice and get the conversation from the topic of his secret.
"No. He, who has no brain. I said Smallville as in the place not as in your nickname." she rolls her eyes.
Dessert in vast amounts and varieties were soon served as the usual buffet style. They eyed the food, starring intriguingly at the displays of every kind of dessert imaginable, graced the spots before them. Everyone digging in helping themselves to one or more samples of each dish.
"Mmm, my god this is...heaven." Lois groans. Her eyes closed, head back, licking the dabs of cream that stuck to her lips.
Clark couldn't help but groan inside at the sounds Lois made while eating the delicious, rich deserts. He watched her full lips as her tongue glided over them, the fork teasingly rubbed against them as she pushed it in and then pulled it out...in...and...out...
Clark quickly grabbed his water glass, the ice cubes clanging loudly hitting the sides as he quickly lifted the glass to his mouth, and gulped it down. Lois was driving him crazy with those moans she was making and Clark Jr was painfully agreeing.
She was so beautiful, not just the outside, Lois had a beauty that shone from deep within. Sure she could be abrasive, sarcastic, stubborn, but most of all she was strong, loyal, intelligent and there was nothing she wouldn't do for the people she cared about.
He couldn't believe he fell for her witty sarcasm just as well as all the rest of her. All those years ago wishing she would just go away and pushing her out of his life while he moped over Lana. Now he finds himself fighting for the one thing he was too blind to see, that actually fitted in his life.
Clark chokes in the water glass, he was watching Lois through, a soft touch on his inner knee breaking him from his revier. The girls attention shoots to Clark, starring at his strange behavior and taking note of his wide eyed look and red cheeks.
"Clark, you ok?" Chloe asks, patting his back.
"God, Carlos didn't you get the concept of swallowing, yet?" Lois smirks. "We can always buy you a sippy cup, if you need one?" she teased, heavy flirting sounding in her voice.
Clark cocks his eyes at her, he practically made her speechless a few minutes ago, kissing her in public. Yet, she always finds a way of regaining herself just to bust his chops.
"No, I'm fine, I was just drinking too fast."he saids, nervousness stricken in his tone, his eyes darting between the girls.
They glance at him oddly one more time, but seems to buy it, shrugging it off they return back to their conversing. Clark quickly turns to Chrissy, removing her hand from his knee.
"Chrissy, you're...um...you're...you're a girl, but I'm in love with an amazing women."
Chrissy looked over at Lois as she was laughing at whatever Chloe was saying, a hinge of jealousy shone through Chrissy's face. "Obviously with someone who doesn't love you."
Clark looked over to Lois seeing the same scene, his heart always fluttered when she was in his view. "You don't know anything about her, and even less about us. If you did, you'd understand what's going on."
He went back to concentrating on his meal, just stabbing at the food on his plate, having a loss of appetite. He jumps at the feel of her hand sightly lower on his leg then her last position.
Chrissy leans toward him, and whispers. "What I do know is, why chase, when you can have?"
Her hand quickly slid up his inner thigh, coming in contact with the prize. Clark's body jolts up at her touch, his legs hitting into the table, knocking down a few cups and once again becomes the subject of everyone's attention. The girls turn their heads to stare at him, wondering what the hell is going on.
"What the fu-..." Lois shouts, grabbing at napkins to clean the drinks that spilled. She looks up at Clark, his cheeks bright red, the word guilty written all over his face. His eyes went wide as they met Lois' hazels.
She darts them over to Chrissy, a smugged appearance on her face, her lips in a evil smirk at the little deed she done. Clark quickly grabs her hand, pushing it away from his personal area. Chrissy giggles at his innocent behavior, not noticing Lois starring her way, murder gleaming in her eyes.
It didn't take a genius to figure out what Chrissy was doing, and that was the last straw for Lois, she try to play nice, but this was going too far.
Lois springs up to her feet, throwing her unfinished drink in Chrissy's face, the blue liquid seeping down, soaking her from her head on down. "Hands OFF!"
Chrissy throws her hands up, gasping in reaction to the cold drink splashing on her. "You !"
"Yes, and you messed with the right one!" Lois sneers venomously, narrowing her eyes at the wet girl, hands tightly gripped on her hips.
Chloe and Lana can't help but glance at each other and give sidelong smirks.
"Whoa! Mad Dog Lane, has been unleashed!" Chloe quips, amused by the situation but still wary about how far things would go.
"Does Chrissy have any ideal who she's messing with?" Lana asks, both girls attentively watching the scene before them.
Chloe shaking her head in reply, their eyes fixed on Lois, she was pissed and Chloe could see by the look in her eyes, that more then words were going to be exchanged.
"This is going to get ugly."
"Uh-huh." Lana agreed, popping a grape into her mouth, watching the action like they were at the movies.
"Lois!" Clark shouted. "Don't do this!"
"Stay out of this, Smallville!" Lois demands, then quickly turns to look at Chloe, raising her hand up to her. "...and don't you..."
Chloe shoots her hands up in defense. "Hey, wasn't going to say a thing." her lips twisting into a bemusing grin.
Chrissy furiously wipes at her sticky, wet face and arms. "How freakken dare you!" her voice dripping with malice.
"You've got your nerve." Lois saids, with disgust. "I'm sure you weren't tying your shoes just then, under there."
Chrissy grips the edge of the table giving Lois a cold gaze. "Last I heard, you weren't his girl and this coming from the horse's mouth." she crosses her, arms cocking her brow high.
"Ooh, another slap in the face with her own words...and wait did she just call Lois a horse?" Chloe marks, staring at the action intently.
Lois shoots Chloe an annoyed look, her jaw clamped together. "Chlo, sweetie we can hear you over here."
"Oh, yeah. Right...Sorry..." Chloe shrugs up, her cheeks flushing red, embarrassed that they heard her.
"You're so playing him, stringing him along. You say you're not his girlfriend but yet as soon as someone gives him a little attention, you get jealous." Chrissy throws in her face.
Lois folds her arms across her chest, Chrissy words not even fazing her. "Not that it's any of your business, but I'm not stringing or playing anyone." she states matter-of-factly.
Clark lets a small chuckle slip, Lois glares at him. "As far as me saying I'm not his girlfriend...I lied." Lois swallows hard.
Lana and Chloe gasps not believing, what they just heard. Lois actually admitted to being Clark's girlfriend, well not directly or in so many words, but admitting it none the less. Lois rolls her eyes at their reaction to what she said.
