Chapter 5 - Avoiding

After a few days, Lois came back to Uni. However, she was still upset about what had happened the other day. More than that, she was upset that Clark had betrayed her. She'd trusted him. Clark had tried to talk to her since that night but she'd kept ignoring him. Later he'd tried to find Lois alone but had no luck. She was never alone; Lucy, Chloe or some other of her friends was always there with her. They thought that leaving Lois alone would be dangerous, but Lois was angry that they tried to protect her like a baby. She was Lois Lane; she could take care of herself, but she knew the others loved her too much and that's why they would not leave her.

But the whole university knew what had happened between Lucas and Lois. Lois was sick of answering everyone's questions, so she stayed at home for a few more days. Sam was wondering why his little Lo was not attending university, but did not say a word, despite his worry.

The Kent Residence

Clark was worried about Lois. Later Pete had told him what had happened between Lois and Lucas, and then he'd understood why Lois was mad at him. She thought that he'd betrayed her. She'd clearly told him about the reason for her family's move in confidence; she didn't need anybody's sympathy.

Martha knew something was bothering her son, but refrained from questioning him. However, Clark later told Martha what had happened.

"Clark, honey, what's wrong. I see you're so far away these days. Did something happen?" Martha finally asked her son. Clark told her everything, including Lois's misunderstanding.

She worried about the young couple. She knew that they liked each other and no way would she let them suffer like this. She considered talking to Lois personally.

"Clark son, give her some time to understand what happened. I am sure she will come back to you, when she knows what really happened."

"I hope so, Mom. I really like her, But you didn't see her face at the club. She was so upset. She thought that I'd betrayed her. I hope she will understand me, Mom."

Luthors

"That third class woman slapped me. She's going to pay for what she did, sooner or later. If I have to give up my friendship with Clark, I will not hesitate to do so. She will be mine." Lucas was planning how to take revenge on Lois.

Lucas was Lex's half-brother, the son of Lionel Luthor and his secretary Margaret Witchbern. Since she'd passed away, Lionel had brought his other son back to his mansion.

Lex had not liked Lucas at first, but he always tried being a big brother to Lucas; after all, Lucas was his half-brother, his own blood.

"Lucas, you better not mess with Miss Lane, after all, it was your fault. She just tried to defend herself. Look, brother, why don't you just focus on a new girl," Lex tried to explain.

"No way, big bro. I want that Lois Lane. I'll teach her a lesson," Lucas swore to himself.

The Lane Residence

A Limo pulled into the garden and a well-built young man climbed out.

"Hey, my little girls? Uncle Sam? Anyone home?"

"OMG, BRUCE... Lucy, Bruce is here," Lois yelled from the living room.

"Lo, what the …BRUCE, OMG." Lucy ran to her big cousin and almost knocked him down.

"Okay, girls, I know you're both really happy to see me, but let me breathe, otherwise you'll be able to visit me at the hospital due to lack of oxygen." Then both of the Lanes let him go, laughing and then hugging him again.

"Miss Lois, Miss Lucy, I think Master Bruce needs to rest now." Alfred finally spoke, after realizing the two young girls would not let go of the young man.

"Sorry, 're so glad to see you," Lucy said.

"Hello, Alfred, how are you? I see you still follow Bru wherever he goes." Lois chuckled. She knew very well that Alfred thought of Bruce as his own child. He never left Bruce's side, no matter what happened.

"Of course, Miss Lois. I am happy to see you all." He smiled.

That day, the Lanes talked about what had been happening in their lives. Lois and Lucy were happy that Bruce was here for a business trip. He was doing some new research at Kansas. They were even happier to hear that he would not leave until Lucy's final year.

Lucy finally told Bruce what had happened the other day. He was so angry to hear that some silly boy had been playing with his little cousins.

Met U

During lunch break, Chloe and Jaye were at the Torch, while Luce had extra classes. Lois was sitting alone in the cafeteria. She wasn't worried about being alone; Lucas hadn't tried any funny business since that night, and however Clark tried to talk to Lois she kept on avoiding him.

Lucas was passing and noticed Lois was alone. He looked around but no one was there, so he took his chance.

"Hey, beautiful."

"Lucas!"

"Yep, it's me. I see that your army finally left you alone. Are they sick of your dirty mouth? I told you the two of us would make a great team, but no, you just wanted my bad side, so you're going to get it. Are you going to join me or do you want me to carry you? Either way, you're coming with me, sooner or later. No one can stop me - Kent, Lex, no one. The choice is yours, sweetie."

Lois was so angry. "Listen, you freak, I am going to tell you this once, so listen carefully. I don't know what you think about yourself, but for me you are just dirt. You just take your dad's money and power. Once you lose everything, there will be nothing or no one with you, so watch your back," Lois said.

"How dare you talk to me like that?"

Lucas tried to grab her hand; she pushed him and kicked his leg, making him fall. Then she kept one foot on his chest and glared down at him. Her heel pressed a little harder against his chest; he cried in pain.

"Listen, buddy, I tried to explain very nicely. But no, you want my bad side, you get my bad side. Don't even think about messing with me again, all right?" Lois said angrily.

A little while earlier...

Bruce was passing Met U, and since both Lois and Lucy had finished by now, he thought of picking them up.

Just as he entered, he saw Lois kicking a guy. He was about to head there, but stood there a little while, since he knew his little cousin very well. He was chuckling since Lois has not changed a bit when it came to bad boys.

Clark and Pete entered the cafeteria to see Lucas on the floor and Lois about to hit him. They both rushed there. At the same time, Lucy and Chloe arrived.

"Lo, are you okay? What happened?" Clark asked. Lois looked at Clark and noticed the concerned look and the worry on his face.

"Lucas, man, I told you not to mess with the Lane girl. You called me chicken. See, now she kicked your ass." Everyone laughed at Pete's comment.

"Lo, are you okay?" Bruce came asking.

Clark looked at the new guy who was in a business suit. And he called her Lo. 'Why is he touching Lois? She let him hold her. Is this her boyfriend? Are they dating?' he was thinking.

"Come on, let's go home. But that was a nice kick. I am sure that poor guy will be in hospital at least a month." With that, Bruce took Lois and Lucy home.

Clark was puzzled, wondering who the new guy was. He just looked at Lois leaving with Bruce. He hoped she would at least turn back and look at him. But no, without even saying goodbye she left. His Lois left. Had he lost her forever? Would she trust him again?
