Chapter 26: Cruise (Day 4) Who's Scared of the big bad wolf?
Lex strolls smugly into his office, a sick happiness reverberating off of him, he whistles as he walks over to his bar stand picking up the fancy crystalline brandy holder and pours himself a bit into a glass. He lifts it up to his nose smelling the pungent savor of the liquid, smiling in satisfaction as he knocks it back letting out a harsh breath of air at the sting, and pours himself more.
"I'm surprised by the way you drink, that you're actually ever sober." Lucy replies in a calm smooth voice, moving her writs around at the discomforts of the cuffs.
Lex turns around to the young brunette chained to the couch, he never loosing the sick grin from his lips. "Well my dear...there's a difference between the casual drinker...moi..." he says pointing to himself, smugly and walks up close to her. "... who basks in the finer tastes of brandy, Don Pier Jon, reds...whites...drys...wets..." he runs his finger down her delicate cheek, she turns away in disgust. "...wines."
He only smiles widely and continues on, he lifts his glass and takes a sip of the brandy. "Unlike the uncultured tastes of your sister...who would drink any distasteful carnage from the shelf...just like herself never worth much."
Lucy spits in face at his insult toward her sister, Lex quickly wipes his face and back hands her across the face. She falls against the arm of the couch holding her face at the bruising sting on her cheek, as he smirks and walks away to his basin to pour some water to wipe his face clean .
Lucy goes to lunge after him but the chains keep her in place, Lex snickers at her ignorance and just watches her amusingly.
"My sister is going to kill you...she's going to kick your ass for this!." She sneers as she pulls against the chains that didn't even flinch.
"That's if you're sister is even still alive to lift a foot to kick my ass!" he yells out sarcastically, overly tired of the young girl.
"YOU BASTARD!" Lucy shouts...and stops to think, she shakes her head. "...but she isn't...you wouldn't have a need for me if she was..."
"Bravo Lucy..." Lex says sarcastically, giving a fake applause. "...took you all of about 2 minutes..." pretends to check his watch. "...to realize that."
" You!" Lucy sneers out, glaring coldly his way.
"Tsk...tsk..." Lex smacks his teeth together. "...such language coming from a young ladies mouth."
He stalks up to her in a predatory manner, intimidating her; she falls back into the couch and slumps back against it as he moves closer toward her, he leans and grips into the sofa on either side of her head, his face inches away from hers. She cringes at their closeness.
"Just tell me where..." he says in a dark evil voice, as he tries to sound seductive, he leans in to taste her lips.
Lucy pulls her head back and with a hard force she thrusts it forward, she hits her head hard against his head making him stumble back, his hands shoot up to nurse the wounded spot. He glares up at her coldly as he pulls his hand back to see blood stain his finger tips, he goes up to her raising his hand as if to strike her again, but only lets out a sickening laugh.
"You don't know how much of a you are...just like you're sister."
"Proud of it...and I can't wait to see the show...when my sister beats the out of you." she says smugly glaring back at him.
He walks back up to her, Lucy closes her eyes and scrunches up in preparation for another smack across the face, but slowly opens her eyes to see Lex staring coldly at her, his face showing hate and the evil he always kept below the surface, but she got a peak of it and it was scarier then hell.
"That's if your sister survives the next 24 hours." he sneers coldly and claps his hands for the servant to come, who came and stood by the door he opened up.
"Take young Lucy to her quarters...make sure she's chained properly to her bed and that the door and windows are secured tightly." Lex orders in a calm tone.
The butler nods, having a key already to her chains hooked to the couch, he releases her from it, tightly grabbing her around the arm and escorts her from the room.
"How can you do this?" she yells at the man holding her. "This is freaking kidnapping!...You could get into so much trouble for something that monster wants you to do!" she yells at him as he drags her away, but her words only fall on death ears.
Lex lifts his glass of brandy up to salute her departure and takes the small amount and knocks it back in one shot, and smiles evilly as he breathes out the harsh sting in his throat, he watches as she's taken away.

Chloe shakes her head and rolls her eyes, she is becoming so prone to doing this, that it just seem to happen on it's own as she watches Lois sit at the kitchen table in their suite, and stare off in dream world. Chloe didn't need to know what Lois was thinking, it was written all over her face...well more like written all over her body. Chloe shakes her head; she really didn't want to be thinking of that.
She places a cup of coffee in front of Lois and smiles at the wide grin on her face. Lois just sits there, her hazel eyes not looking at anything in particular just off in space, clueless to the world around her. Chloe shakes her head and sits down at the table in the chair next to hers, how she is able to stay motionless and quiet like this for so long is amusing.
Chloe waves her hand in front of her face to snap her out of whatever trance she is in. "Hello earth to Ms Lane...or should I say Universe to Ms Lane...or no wait maybe ET phone home."
Lois scowls at Chloe and rolls her eyes. "Funny...I forgot I had a comedian for a cousin."
"You know I had to make some kinda joke outta this...god only knows you would have done worse if the roles were switched." Chloe points out and holds her hands up. "...not that I'm wishing it was...my falling for the Kent charm days is over...and the torch has been passed, and became a bon fire."
Lois lifts up her coffee, takes a sip and rolls her eyes. "One..."
Chloe interrupts her sighing heavily as she took a sip from her own cup. "Oh god she's counting..."
"One..." Lois repeats glaring at her. "...I would have done no such thing..." she says in a shocked innocent tone.
"Right." Chloe strides, and looks at her skeptically.
"Two...what makes you think anything happened last night?" Lois asks, unsuccessfully trying to look innocent.
"Please Lois, the bedroom decoration alone, was an invitation all on it's own for a romp fest."
Lois scrunches up to make a face of disgust. "Ack Chloe...could you please not refer to it as that..." she shrugs up. "...so the room was to the 9's doesn't mean we took the bait..."
Chloe had to let out a big laugh at that. "...and here I thought Clark was a bad liar...but you really take the cake." she laughs more. "Watch it Ms Lane farm boy is starting to show on you?"
"God forbid!" Lois groans teasingly, and rolls her eyes as she takes another sip of her coffee, caffeine her wide awake body surly didn't need.
Chloe laughs, smiling widely at her cousin's facade. "Oh come on, Lois you're glowing...your face is lit up more then a night sky on 4th of July."
Lois smiles, and allows herself to enjoy the happy feelings taking over her body. "Ok...so, it's no secret that..."
"...You two were ready to jump each others bones since the first day on here?" Chloe says quickly.
Lois laughs more, and gives Chloe a pointed look and places her cup down on the table.
" I wouldn't say from the first day, but yea..." she drops back her head, and lets out a soft groan. "...god, Chloe I wanted Clark so bad, I was even willing to do it in public I didn't care...and then all those interruptions."
Chloe shakes her head, she looks at her cousin and let's out a small laugh. "Yea, it did seem for awhile that the Cosmos were keeping you guys apart..."
She chokes on her coffee, and spits some back inside her cup as a thought crosses her mind, she looks wide eyed at her, Lois looks back at her oddly. "...you two did remember to use protection, right?"
Lois gives Chloe a sarcastic, disbelief look. " We were horny Chloe, not stupid." she smirks as she takes another sip of her coffee.
"Beside I am on the Pill..." she smiles to herself as she thinks back to the night. "...but we did use up the whole big box of Trojans you left for us...just as a precaution."
Chloe chokes on her coffee again, her eyes wide. "That box had a hundred and five condoms in it!"
"I know..." Lois smile, holding up the cup to her lips as she spoke and looks naughtily at her.
Chloe shakes her head in disbelief and grins. "Speaking of Clark...where is the horn dog at?"
"Still in bed...I think I wore him out..." Lois shrugs up her shoulders. "...well there was no spot in the suite we didn't...Christen."
Chloe looks at the table in disgust and quickly picks up her coffee cup as Lois laughs at her reaction. At that second Clark walks in yawning, his hair in a disarray, wearing grey sweat pants and white t-shirt that visibly shows the chiseled body of a god. His face lights up and a huge smile crosses his face at the sight of Lois, her face the same way as she looks back at him.
"Oh boy..." Chloe smirks playfully.
"Morning Beautiful..." Clark says, as he leans his hand on Lois' chair and on the edge of the table, he bends and places a soft kiss on her lips.
Lois smiles on his lips and grabs his shirt to pull him down harder on her lips to kiss him deeper. "Mmmm...it's a good morning, now."
"Lois, Chloe is here..." he mumbles against her lips, looking over at Chloe with one eye, as Lois continues to devour his mouth.
"So, just ignore her...maybe she'll go away." Lois smiles teasingly against his mouth.
"Hey, I heard that!" Chloe smirks out, smiling.
"Behave..." Clark pecks her lips once more before pulling back, Lois's hand still grip onto the front, top part of his shirt and pulls him back down to her mouth, she kisses him hard and long before she lets him go.
"Morning Chlo." he says, smiling as he walks pass her to the fridge, and grabs a glass to pour himself some orange juice.
"Morning Clark." Chloe replies back teasingly, looking at him over her shoulder as he leans back against the counter his eyes locked onto the only hazel eyes of the room.
Chloe's lips spread wide into a grin as she looks from Clark to Lois, as they sit or stand there just staring at each other like they can read the other's mind, Chloe having no doubt it was probably possible with these two. She didn't even need to guess what was running in their heads, as they looked at each other with seductive looks, like they were the only ones around.
"Alright, you two don't have to hold back because of me...to some extent anyway." Chloe smirks teasingly. "If I start seeing clothes dropping, I'm gone."
Lois's face lights up even more as if she was given a blessing to be with him, she quickly rises up from her seat, runs over to Clark and jumps into his waiting arms, her legs wrap around his hips tightly, as they started to kiss heatedly, they consume each others lips hungrily.
"...or, maybe I should contract that offer..." Chloe says playfully, scrunching up at the two making out.
Clark laughs, as they pull back breathing heavily from the long wild kiss they were in, he leans his forehead against hers for a moment before she steps back to the floor and turns around in his arms, facing toward Chloe, as he wraps his arms loosely around her waist
"So, how was your night, Chloe?" Clark asks, still with a huge grin on his lips as Lois lays her head back against his chest, his fingers rest on the top part of her jeans.
Chloe turns around to look at the two, she smiles sneakily with her brow raised. "Not as good as yours...so I've heard anyway."
Clark's jaw drops some, as he stares at Chloe with shocked eyes, Chloe gives him a teasing look back. "Not that it wasn't obvious to tell, but no Lois hasn't spilled any details...yet anyway."
Clark grudgingly rolls his eyes and lets out a low groan as Lois and Chloe laugh at him, this only makes Clark attack Lois' neck with his lips for laughing.
"...but to answer your question..." Chloe says laughing; she interrupts them before she sees more then she would like to see brake out. "...if you can call keeping Lana and AC from killing Bart for the stunt he pulled a good night." she smirks out. "...but the night was pretty much uninteresting...except for Lana..." Chloe says, with a strange look on her face. "...she was very fidgety the whole night and still is..."
"What's wrong with the Princess now...found out the cruise ran out of pink clothing?" Lois smirks sarcastically, and gets nudged by Clark behind her.
"Be nice..." Clark whispers in her ear, and gives a quick kiss on her neck before looking back at Chloe. "So, what's wrong with Lana?"
"No more pink clothes." Lois says sarcastically in a low voice, and laughs as Clark gives her another nudge.
Chloe laughs herself and shakes her head for a moment before becoming serious. "I don't know...but she's just been real antsy, it's gotten worse since last night...like she's expecting something to happen...I don't know."
Lois shakes her head, not really caring. "Well, I'm sure whatever it is, she'll be ok..." Lois smirks and then looks excitedly at Chloe. "...so what's on the plans for today?"
Chloe slants her head to the side and gives Lois a look. "Why do you keep asking me?...I'm not the tour guide here, you know."
"Give it up Chlo, we already know you read the whole Cruise book, and the schedule...so what can we do?" Lois asks, giving a wide smile.
Chloe lets out a deep huff, and rolls her eyes as she answers through clamped teeth. "There's a big Tropic party going on top side in a few hours..."
"...we can go dancing." Chloe suggests, in an excited tone, staring eagerly at the two.

Lex throws his glass into the fireplace angrily, the flames whip up big for a second feeding on the alcohol and settle back down. He turns around and screams into the cell phone pressed against his ear.
"What the hell do you mean he has food poisoning!" Lex growls into his cell phone, his face that of a mad man, scaring poor Lucy half to death, but yet she tries to remain calm and brave as she watches Lex rant on the phone madly from the bad news.
"His ass was supposed to be on the "Job" tonight...No...no...I don't want anyone else sent...I guess it's true, when you want things done right, you have to do it yourself..."
He paces in front of his desk, and squeezes the cell phone tightly in hand as the words of the person on the other end only seem to make him angrier.
"Yes...yes...I'm sure, things are too deep now to turn away and I have no trust in anyone else for this job..." he turns and looks up at the stained glass windows on the walls."...just make sure you keep a close eye on them...let me know where they are at all times, and...Chrissy, don't let me down or you will pay just like him."
A evil grin crosses his lips, as the void of his black soul shines through his eyes, as he presses a speed dial on his cell. " Yes, this is Lex...now ready the Chopper."
Lex closes his cell phone, his twisted joy comes back to him as he slowly makes his way in front of Lucy, who finds herself yet again chained to the couch in his study.
"Well Lucy, looks like you're going to make the cruise after all."
"Wh-What do you mean...what are you going to do?" Lucy asks her voice a bit shaky.
"Seems as though my Plan A has run into some trouble...but great minds never make plans without having a back up." he gleams menacingly, running his fingers down her cheek teasingly.
She pulls back and glares up as his smiling face. "...and guess who's part of that back up plan?"

Lois sat there slumped in her chair, her brow raised and face scrunched up along with Clark's as they watched across the table at Bart and Chloe stuff their faces with each others lips in a heated kiss. Chloe moans noisily against Bart's lips, as they continue to devour each other's lips, her hands run up the sides of his face and into his hair. His hands under the hem of her shirt, touching her soft milk creamy skin, both not caring who is watching.
Lois and Clark gives each other glances, and look back at the two as they kiss wildly, Clark covers his face some with his hand, a blush on his cheeks from the two's actions, and at seeing the people walking by gawk at Chloe and Bart who madly go at it.
"Coming for air anytime soon?" Lois snarks.
They only part for a second to give her a sly smile before they go back to their lip locks, that gets more heated as Bart pulls Chloe onto his lap. She moans loudly as his hands run up her smooth back, under her yellow short sleeve shirt. Lois and Clark look wide-eyed as they watch the scene, Clark takes his glass of water from the table, and takes a long drink to wet his suddenly dry mouth.
Bart runs his hands further up her back, showing her red bra strap from her lifted shirt; their lips never cease the wild play and slips their tongues visibly make into each others mouths. His fingers, grasp around the clasp on her bra, and try to undo it.
"Ok!" Clark chokes through on his water, his cheeks like cherries from embarrassment. "We get it...we've haven't exactly been discrete with our..."
"Wild, sexual displays of affection..." Chloe laughs, as she climbs off of Bart's lap, and returns back to her seat.
Lois folds her arms and cocks her brow up at her. "We're not that bad...and don't blame us for finally showing our feelings, if you have anyone to blame...blame yourselves."
"See, I told you this would be a bad ideal...they were dangerous apart, now they're together..." Bart teases as he looks at Chloe.
Clark laughs and throws his cloth napkin at Bart. "We're not the only ones who aren't exactly innocent there either."
"Well, what can I say, she can't keep her hands off of me." Bart says smugly, a wide grin on his lips.
"Yea, know what you mean." Clark agrees, he leans over the table to pound Bart's hand, as Chloe and Lois give each other looks of disbelief at the two.
"Right, that's why I have to practically pry you off of me, when we're alone." Lois smirks, crossing her arms and turning her body to stare at Clark.
Bart laughs over at Clark and gets bumped in the side by Chloe. "You so don't have room to laugh...Mr. Cuddles."
They laugh as Bart looks mortified at Chloe, his face turning a bright pink as he groans through gritted teeth. "Chloeee, you promise you wouldn't call me that in public."
"Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Cuddles." Chloe says in a baby-like voice as she holds Bart's face and leans in to kiss him.
"It's ok Snuggle Bunny..." Bart says, kissing her back softly.
"Ok, stop it...you two are no that cute to have pet names like that." Lois teases, making a playful, disgusted face.
Chloe laughs as she parts from Bart's lips and sits back into her chair. "Like you and Clark haven't given each other pet names."
Clark gulps and looks over at Lois who beams a wide smile her brow raises up.
"Of course we do, but nothing mushy like that...he's Smallville like always, and I'm Metropolis."
Clark chokes on his water, remembering what he was doing to her when he called Lois that, he could feel his cheeks burn red.
"...and there's ass of steel...I was also thinking about changing Clark Jr to..."
Clark places his hand behind her head, his fingers slip through her hair and quickly pulls her to his lips, stopping her from finishing her words as he kisses her hard.
"You talk too much...Metropolis." he whispers on her lips in a teasing voice as he opens his eyes staring deeply into her hazels.
She smiles against his mouth, looking back seductively. "Maybe you should do something about it."
"Maybe I should...but only if you behave." he whispers back in a low sultry voice, kissing her once more before he returns back into his seat.
Chloe rolls her eyes and smiles widely. "Come on guys, we came to do some dancing...remember?"
She stands up to her feet, grabs Bart's hand and pulls him out toward the dance floor as another fast beat song begins. Lois does like wise and grabs Clark's hand but he doesn't budge, she turns to look at him.
"Smallville it's called moving...you should try it."
He cocks his head to the side and gives her a sarcastic look. "You know it wouldn't kill you to call me by my real name."
"I thought I did enough of that last night" she smirks teasingly, smiling evilly. "Now, come on I want to dance."
He still doesn't budge and Lois only gets yanked back again as she tries to pull on him. "No, I can't dance to fast songs...I'll just end up looking like a fool."
"Come on Smallville, it's not hard to do..." her face drops as he doesn't attempt to move. "...ok, then maybe I should dance with one of the other hot guys around."
"Lois." Clark warns, slightly glaring at her.
Lois rolls her eyes and looks at him. "I'm with you Smallville, remember?" she smiles widely. "You're stuck with me."
"Yea, I know...I was doomed from the start." Clark smiles, teasing her, as his hand plays with her hair.
She playfully pushes his hand away and gives him a smirk. "...and yet again I didn't see Clark Jr complaining."
"Lois...it was not." he says swallowing hard, feeling uneasy by her accusation, knowing he was completely naked when they first met.
"Well...I wasn't looking down for nothing." she teases, giving him a playful wink. "...and how would you know, you had amnesia."
"I didn't have amnesia...I was Kal, well sorta."
"Anyway, Clark Jr knew what he liked...even then."
"Could we please stop talking about my shaft...we'll have time to do that later."
Lois laughs and holds out her hand. "Only if you dance with me, and don't worry I'll teach you...Please?"
He sets his jaw tightly and groans as he places his hand into hers, allowing her to drag him off next to Chloe and Bart on the dance floor. Lois lets out a laugh as she dances in beat with the music but Clark was dancing around with no rhythm, killing the song with his moves, and it made Lois burst in a fit of giggles.
"Yea, you're right..." she teases, trying not to laugh anymore, and shakes her head. "I'm sorry I brought you out here."
"Lois!" Clark snaps, after already humiliating himself in front of everyone, Lois is not the only one snickering at his moves.
She lets out the laugh she's been holding and grabs his shirt and pulls him near her body as the space between them erases.
"Just kidding, geesh Smallville lighting up...stop being such a hard ass."
Clark laughs this time and whispers in her ear. "Now, that just can't be helped."
Lois shakes her head, smiling up at him. "Just follow me..."
She places her hands on his hips, pulling him closer to hers, and opens her legs slightly to allow his right thigh to slide between. She grabs his hands and places them on her swaying waist, that's grinding into his as she helps him find his rhythm to the song.
"You sure this is dancing?" Clark asks, his brow raises, and he looks at her skeptically as she continues to wind her hips into his.
"It's a lot like sex...so you'll be great at it." she says with a wink as she slides her hands up his chest and wraps them around his neck, their bodies dance in beat with the music.
"If I last..." he smirks out, feeling her hips and her thighs rub against his lower region, was beginning to stir things up.
Lois licks her lips and looks seductively in his eyes as they continued to dance around. "Well, tell Clark Jr to behave...that fun is for later."
Clark spins himself and her around, they laugh and enjoy the floor like they were the only ones around. Her body dances against his as he tries his best to keep up, he gets better as time passes and he starts to get the hang of it, he grinds his hips back into hers, as she does the same back to the beat of the music.
"Hey, look over there..." Clark gestures with his head, and turns them sideways in the direction for her to see.
"AC seemed to find a hook up after all..." he says, seeing AC dancing with some blonde girl across the dance floor.
"Yea, good for him..."Lois smirks, shrugging up her shoulders as she watches AC laugh along with the girl, he dances with.
"Well, don't sound so jealous." Clark says sarcastically.
Lois playfully punches his arm. "Like you aren't when you see another guy with the Pink Princess...Lana?"
Clark looks deeply in her eyes, drowning in the forest of green, her hazels captivate him, a smile breaks on his lips. Her beauty was something he always beheld, but when he actually took a chance to truly look at her, for the first time he saw how truly beautiful she is.
"Lana, Who?" he whispers, his eyes never breaking from hers.
Lois smiles widely up at him, her eyes sparkling as they look deeply into his blues that showed back all his love shinning through.
"Good answer...Kent."
He leans down to taste her sweet lips, that filled him with bliss like he's never known, kissing her passionately. She softly moans as his savory lips spring sensations through her and at the feel of his hands sliding to the small of her back.
"Later, Smallville..." she warns against his lips.
"How about in 10 minutes...I'll make it worth it." he parts from her lips and breathes into her ear, sending shivers down her spine, before he teasingly kisses her neck.
Her lips spread into a wide grin from the feel of his lips on her neck. "What have I turned you into?"
"You'll find out soon enough..." he whispers into her ear and lets out a laugh as he lifts her up into the air and spins her around easily before placing her back to her feet.
They laugh and continue to dance on as one by one songs play, drums pound, beats course through the air. The tempos fast and furious as couples dance around the floor wildly, skirts whip around, bodies touch close, part for a few seconds before coming back together again.
Lois's heart pounds in her chest along with the fast beat of the drums, her laughter among others rises in the air. Clark smiles like he's never done before as he twirls her out and brings her back to his body. Her mind whirls, dizzy from all the spinning around, body tired from dancing for almost an hour...and a strange feeling creeps over her like something is wrong...something is very wrong.
The smile fades from her lips, her head turns from one side to the other, she looks for something but not know what, everyone seem to be moving in slow motion. Laughing and smiling faces move around slowly like someone was forcing time to a crawl. Her heart races faster now but it wasn't from excitement...it was fear she was feeling and she didn't know why.
"Turn around...Turn around..."
She hears a whisper like voice say quickly passing by her, she turns her head to see nothing but others dance, and twirl as they moved around the dance floor.
"Turn around..." the passing voice came again, disappearing as quickly as it came.
"What's wrong?" Clark asks worriedly, seeing the expression on her face.a
Lois shakes her head, not wanting to cause an alarm if there wasn't anything to worry about. She smiles up at him and teasingly kisses his lips before, she turns around against him, and presses her ass into his groin as she dances on. She feels his lips as he softly kisses against her neck, kissing a trail up to behind her ear...
Lois' eyes focus straight ahead, the dancing bodies still caught in the sloth of time, she turns her head to the left to see Chloe dancing happily with Bart. Chloe's head turns slowly to look at Lois and smiles; Lois forces a smile on her lips to not show any concern. She turns her head back forward, a couple catches her eyes, as they come in and out of view, as the dancers pass in front of them.
They are different from others around them; they just stand there a few meters away. The woman wore dark sunglasses, a white shawl wrapped around the length of her face and tied under her chin. The guy, at least Lois thought it was, was wearing a blue hibiscus print shirt, a baseball cap on his head, his head was down so his face isn't seen. The couple stand right across from her, just standing, motionless at first, it made Lois' heart race in her chest with fear, but for the life of her she didn't know why, until...
Slowly the guy lifts his head, and then at that instant Lois knew why this eerie feeling came over her, and why now it felt like her heart was going to explode in her chest as his face came into sight and he reaches up removing the cap from his head. The familiar shine coming in focus, his evil toothy grin beams, her eyes go wide with fear, her breath escapes her...him...all the warnings, it all leads to this.
The devil finally made his appearance...all this time he lived not in hell, but right in the small town of Smallville Kansas. Disguised as daddy doesn't love me, bald wonder of the trust fund kids...Lex Luthor. Her eyes didn't leave him, afraid of what he might do, afraid of what would happen if she just blinks, but mostly her eyes stay locked on him out of curiosity. Her mind wonders who the lady next to him is.
The lady he held onto so tightly...so protectively, but she didn't have to wait long to find out. Lex stares back at Lois, his victory smile reverberating from his face as if the war was already won by him. His eyes break from hers, leading Lois' eyes to the lady beside him, he guards so viciously. He slowly peels the shawl from her head, and drops it to the floor, straight brown locks come into view, followed by the removal of the dark shades from the girl's eyes.
Lois' eyes go wide, the pupils of her hazels dilate at the package uncovered, her chest restricts, feeling pain as if her heart has stopped its life given drumming. She feels her knees buckle, all is moving so slow that she can see the tears pool and form inch by inch into drops as they fall from her sister's crying eyes. Lucy's lips move slowly as she mouths the word "Sorry" to Lois.
Lex places his finger to his lips; telling Lois to be quiet then motions her to follow them as he disappears into the crowd of people with her sister tightly grasped in his hands. Lois' body can't take the shock any longer, her knees fall as she hits the wooden floor of the deck. Clark drops immediately to her side, Chloe and Bart do the same, Lois watches as the contents of Chloe's purse spill over the floor in slow motion.
"Lo, you okay?" Clark asks worriedly, rubbing back her hair from her face.
Lois' heart drops as she watches helplessly as her sister is dragged away. Lucy looks back over her shoulder at her with fearful eyes, as she disappears from view. Lois stays there a moment her body numb with reality of what's going on, shock completely fighting it's way to take over her fully. Lois lets it in only for a second, before she pushes it off and leaves the realm of her thought to confront the faces of concern around her, she forces the biggest lie of a smile on her lips.
"Yea, I'm fine...Just a bit dizzy from all this dancing." she lies, as her hands frantically scribble down a message using a piece of paper and lipstick from the stuff Chloe spilled out of her purse.
Bart picks up the items as Chloe and Clark help a shaken Lois to her feet, her hand clamps tightly around the crumbled note in her hand. Her skin pale and sweaty, but her face forces a look as if things are okay. Clark raises his hand to her cheek gently caressing it as he looks into her eyes with concern. Lois closes her eyes for a moment, reveling in the feel of his hand as if it was his last touch.
She keeps her eyes closed for a second making sure no tears will show once they open but this only concerns Clark more.
"You sure, you're okay?" Clark asks, he can't help but let his voice drip with his concern.
She opens her yes back up at the sound of his voice, only making her smile wider at his question and nods her head.
"Yeah, just a bit out of breath."
Clark cups his hands around her face, he can't help but feel like there was more to her story, then she was letting on.
"Maybe, we should go back to our table and rest some...so you can catch your breath?"
Lois shakes her head, and discreetly drops the crumbled message in her hand to the floor. It falls next to the other items on the floor of Chloe's stuff, which Bart was replacing back into her purse.
"No!" she nearly screams out in a panic voice, she shakes her head at her mistake and talks in a calmer voice.
"I mean yes...but I want to get a drink first...my throat is dry..."
Bart stands to his feet, handing Chloe back her purse. "I could go get it...and get all of us drinks, too."
Lois shakes her head...god how she wanted to cry, but for their sakes and her sister's sake she had to keep quiet.
"No, it's ok, I'll get them."
"Lois..." Clark's voice sounds with worry.
"Smallville...I'll get the drink and meet you back at the table, ok?" Lois states, as if that's all she was going to do, and forces a wide smile on her lips before leaning up and places a deep kiss on his lips.
Her lips press hard and a bit shaky onto his like it was their last, she didn't want to let go, but she does so reluctantly in a gasp for air, keeping up the cheerful facade on her face.
"Ok..." Clark replies back, forcing his own smile on his face, still feeling that something wasn't right.
Clark glances over to Lois once more, a small smile on his face, before he heads back along with Bart and Chloe to their table. Lois swallows hard, letting out a deep breath before turning around in the direction Lex took Lucy. She walks that way, passing through the people still dancing around, her eyes and ears on high alert, looking our for sight of Lex or her sister among the many faces in the crowd.
A gun jammed in her back lets her know, she's been found...
"Well, seems like we finally meet, Ms. Lane." Lex's harsh breath presses against her skin. "I do believe you have something of mine?"
Lois looks straight ahead as they walk, making sure not to draw any attention to them, especially with a loaded barrel in her lower back.
"What's wrong Lex, money not buying what it used too? You have to come and do things yourself?" Lois smirks back, amusement sounding in her voice at her defense.
Lex lets out a sarcastic laugh, and jams the gun harder in her back. "I've forgotten how much of a riot you are. I really missed these petty conversations."
"Yes, cuz they were so delightful to begin with." Lois snarks out, sarcastically. "I always wanted you to give me an excuse to whoop your ass, beside you calling me a muffin peddling dropout...thanks for finally giving me an excuse..."
Lex grabs her arm tightly, as he yanks on it pushing her to walk faster through the people as they make their way through the deck to a deserted spot.
"Funny, for someone who is the prisoner here...Now enough small talk, where the hell is my disk!"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Lois sneers out, wincing some from the pain he was causing as he squeezed her arm tightly, knowing the disk was the only insurance she has against him.
"You don't know." Lex mocks in rage, and slams her against a nearby wall, he points the gun hard under her chin, as he leans close to her face and looks madly into her eyes.
"I have your sister...I know where your friends are...I KNOW there is something strange about your now boyfriend...Clark Kent...surprise...surprise...big city girl falls for the bumbling farm boy after all..." he says through clenched teeth, shaking furiously as he spoke.
"...so I really wouldn't be ing with me if I was you."
Lois trembles some as she stares into the cold eyes of a mad man, the barrel of a gun pressing into her throat, only made things even more surreal...but if anything she was a Lane, she knew no such thing as fear to some extent. She looks up from the gun back to his dark eyes, her jaw set tightly together.
"If I was you...I would do this world a favor and kill myself." she speaks out calmly, as she glares him in the eyes.
Lex's jaw shakes with anger, his eyes go wild as his hand quickly slaps her across her face, leaving a dark red imprint behind on her cheek. Lois quickly snaps her face back to him; she stares defiantly in his eyes, not allowing him to get over on her.
"You hit like a girl." she smirks.
Lex raises his hand for another strike, when he sees two uniformed crew men casually walking their way, just strolling along the deck. He looks back at Lois placing a finger over her mouth.
"Don't say a word, or I swear I'll kill them one by one and make you watch." he whispers to her, sliding the gun down out of sight, pressing the cold steel barrel into her stomach and does the first thing that come to mind.
He leans in and kisses Lois' mouth roughly to make it look like they were just another couple making out. Lois lets out a soft groan of protest, crying inside of disgust and hate at what he was doing to her. She presses her lips together not letting him get all of her mouth, not wanting to taste him in her own. Little silent squeals evade her mouth as he kisses her harder, trying to get her to respond, but she keeps her mouth tightly closed as well as her eyes, picturing Clark in her head.
Tears burning in the back of her eyes at the immense guilt she felt as Lex continues to kiss her, she cries louder as she feel his slimy tongue press against her tightly closed lips, trying to make it's way into her mouth. She places the image of Clark to the front of her mind, thinking back to the many times they kissed, she presses the thought of reality out, the thought of Lex's lips on her as she continues to think about Clark, his touch, his sweet honey lips on hers, not Lex, and his cold, salty lips, emotionlessly pressing against hers with no feeling, no love.
The two crew men smile at them as they walk by, seeing just a normal couple doing what couples do, nothing strange or suspicious about that, and walks off out of sight. Lex's eye open as he watches them to make sure they go, he then parts from her lips, running his tongue over them to taste her.
Lex looks back at Lois and runs the back of his fingers down her cheek, his thumb rubs over her bruised lips from his harsh kiss.
"Too bad I have to kill such a beautiful rose...I think we could have been a great couple."
Lois scowls, hatred shows in her eyes as she stares him down, and spits in his face, giving her response to his words. Lex slowly rubs his fingers over his face, wiping off the spit, and looks evilly back in her face before smacking her harder then before, causing her lip to bleed.
"You really are a ...I'm going to enjoy making you beg for your life."
"Not if I make you beg first." she sneers back.
"Come on..." Lex growls angrily, pulling Lois hard from the wall and pushes her along, returning the gun into her back.
"Where the Hell is my sister?" Lois asks as she's pushes and pulls but Lex drags her off somewhere only he knows.
"Dear sweet Lucy is being well looked after...but don't worry you'll be joining her soon..."
