Chapter 6

The games have begun…

Everyone who was in the room stared at the young women who was lying on the hospital bed. Thoughts were running through everyone's minds on what would happen to Lois. His father said there would be more pain and drama, that he would have to watch out for Lois, but what was he supposed to do?

"Okay, we have to do something," Chloe said breaking the silence.

"What can we do, Chlo?" Clark asked.

"I don't know yet, but I know for sure I'm not losing Lois, and if we have to fight the General we will."

Clark sat down and put his head in his hands. He couldn't take all of this drama; it was making him go crazy, literally. Chloe looked at her best friend, "Can you guys give Clark and me a second?"

The two men nodded and then stepped outside. Chloe took Clark's hand in her own, "Hey, we are going to get through this together, no matter what we have to do. We will get through this."

Clark looked at his best friend, "How can we stop Lois' father? He's the one with the rights."

"Like I said, we will find a way starting now. Bruce, Lionel and I will do some brainstorming and research and then we will go see the general tonight."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Stay with Lois and get some more rest because God knows you need it."

"Wait. Why do I have to stay here?"

"To keep Lois safe. You never know what Lex might to do to Lois without anyone suspecting it," Chloe got up and gave him a hug. "Plus, I thought you liked staying with Lois," she teased.

"Yeah I do, I just want to do something more."

"But you are doing something. You're making sure Lois is safe which is the most important thing."

"Thanks, Chlo. Stay safe."

"Don't worry about me, I've got Bruce. If we don't come back later tonight then will come by tomorrow morning."

Clark nodded and Chloe left. He took a seat next to Lois holding her hand. Clark heard his cell phone ring. It was Lionel. Lionel told him he would have security around the Kent Farm to make sure his mother was safe from Lex, and Clark thanked him. He then proceeded to call his mother. When she answered he explained to her what had happened with Lex and the general. He told her that everything would be fine and Lois would be safe. He also told her to keep on high alert and then said goodbye.

Clark looked at Lois while he was still holding her hand, "Hey, I'm not going to let anything happen to you. I promise you that with my life."

Clark was hungry so he sped to a fast food restaurant. Two minutes later he was right by Lois' side again. He was not going to leave her tonight even if it meant sleeping on a hard chair. To him it was worth it because he would know she would be safe. Once he was done eating, he just watched Lois. She was glowing. Beautiful was all that came to Clark's mind. He admitted he was attracted to her but was that attraction turning into something more? He got up from his chair and kissed her forehead, "Good night, Lois."

He took a seat again, getting himself comfortable and fell asleep.

Clark woke up with a smile. He finally had a plan on how to stop the general from pulling the plug.

Chloe and Bruce walked in the room looking tired. Clark chuckled, "Hey, you two." The couple grumbled in response and sat down in the other chairs.

"Long night?" Clark smiled.

Chloe glared at Clark, "Did you come up with a plan?"

"Wait a minute, you told me to stay here with Lois. What were doing last night?" Clark said smugly.

Bruce was about to respond but Chloe covered his mouth, blushing.

Clark had an idea what happened, "Don't tell me, I don't want to know. But I did come up with a plan."

"Well, what is it?" Chloe asked curiously.

"You'll find out later. I need to go somewhere," Clark stood up and asked, "By the way did you see the general?"

Bruce shook his head, "No, apparently he was sleeping. I don't believe it but whatever."

"Okay, well let me know if the general comes by."

The couple nodded and Clark left. He took out his cell phone, "Lionel I need your help. Meet me at the mall."

Clark asked Lionel to do some paperwork which would be shown to the hospital once he got back. With the help of Lionel, Clark got what he was looking for. Clark received a call from Chloe saying the general and Lex were at the hospital, and everyone was in an intense argument. Clark thanked Lionel for the paperwork and items and headed to hospital getting there in five minutes. Clark then proceeded to hand over the paperwork to the hospital staff. Once everything was done, he walked into Lois' room.

Chloe was very pissed at her uncle and they were cursing up a storm. Bruce was arguing with Lex and it looked like Bruce would punch the bald man. Clark shook his head, walked over to Lois, took out at ring and subtly placed it on her left ring finger. He kissed her forehead and watched the argument. The argument finally died down, and they all looked at Clark who was wearing an amused smile.

"What are you smiling at, Kent?" the general glared at the younger man.

"You don't have rights to pull the plug on Lois," Clark said matter-of-factly.

"Excuse me, as her father I have the rights. Lois is suffering."

"As her cousin, I know her better than you and I know for a fact she is not suffering!" Chloe shouted.

Clark raised his hand, "Can I say something?"

"What?" the general and Chloe say in unison.

"As her husband, I have the right to decide what's best for Lois."

"Wait! What?" everyone said in the room.

Clark smiled, raising Lois' left hand and showing his left hand.

They both had wedding rings on their fingers.
