Ext. Kent Farm
Clark and Lana are standing outside of the Kent farm home. Lana's car is parked in the distance. Lana is looking wearily at Clark, as though she's not sure what he's going to do.
Clark gently tugs her hand so that she's closer to him
Clark:
You trust me, right?
Lana:
Absolutely, Superboy.
Clark:
Don't let go.
He begins to hover, holding his weight up as well as hers. The higher they go, the tighter she holds on to his hands. They rise into the clouds, and Lana is staring at him with wide, bright green eyes, as well as a grin on her lips as wide as she can possibly manage.
Lana:
So you really are Superboy! You can fly, ohmygosh… what else can you do? I mean… when did you discover you could do this? Why didn't you tell me? This is amazing, Clark!
She is so ecstatic that she almost lets go of his hands, however she quickly recovers, gripping even tighter than before.
Clark:
I don't even know… I mean some things I've been able to do forever.
Lana:
Like running fast.
Clark:
Yeah, and well I've always been strong.
Lana:
That's why you're my Superboy.
They look at each other for a long moment, the way that Lana said the last sentence is in a flirty way, a grin on her lips and a certain look in his eye. Clark doesn't look as sure as Lana does.
Clark:
Well… it's not necessarily a good thing, Lana.
Lana:
You're gifted. You can try out for the football team, track, oh you could even do the weightlifting competition that we always have every year.
Clark:
I can hurt people. When I was younger I crushed my dad's fingers when I shook his hand too hard.
Lana:
Well… don't try so hard.
Clark:
But that's it. I can't… control it. I mean, some of it, sure… I have control over flying. I'm keeping us in the air, but if you slipped… I don't know how fast I could go to save you.
Lana:
Then let's find out.
Clark:
What? No! I can't do that to you, you could get hurt, or you could die. See how high up we are? You would hit the ground so hard you wouldn't have a chance.
Lana:
I trust you. Remember? You'll save me. That's what Superboys do.
Clark:
I don't think there's ever been another person like me—
Before he can fully finish his thoughts, Lana gives him a little grin and lets go of his hands. Once she begins to fall, she realizes what exactly she just did and starts screaming. Clark, with little to no hesitation, zooms down after her and he doesn't even realize how fast he's even going. He grabs her in the typical bridal style of saving, and he glares at her. She on the other hand, has a sheepish and amazed look on her face.
Lana:
I told you, I knew you'd save me.
