Chapter 26

Clark sat down next to Lois taking her left hand in his. Chloe was with Bruce as he didn't want to let her out of his sight. Diana was taking a nap due to the stress. She was in need of some much-needed rest for her and the baby's health.

Lois' doctor walked in, "Mr. Kent, we just got the results on your wife's condition."

Clark looked up, "What's going on?"

"Well it seems Spencer injected her with an unknown substance mixed with a chemical we will not name and a little bit of green meteor rock."

"What will happen?"

"Well, we are getting the substance out of her body and then hopefully she will wake up."

"Hopefully?"

"The last dosage did damage Mr. Kent. If she does wake up it will be a miracle she would be able to move right away."

"So you're saying Lois might be paralyzed?"

"No, I'm just saying it will be tough for her to bounce back. It's been a couple of months now and she will be weak."

Clark nodded, "She will live right?"

"That's what we're are banking on, Mr. Kent."

"Thank you," Clark said.

The doctor nodded and left. Clark turned back to Lois looking at her angelic features.

"Thank you for holding on, Lo. You will be fine just keep on fighting," Clark kissed her forehead and resting his head near hers, he fell asleep.

"Smallville I am soo going to kill you!" Lois screamed when another contraction hits.

Clark, Calvin, and Bruce winced at Lois' booming voice. They were in the waiting room anticipating the arrival of the newborn.

"C-Calvin, Bruce?" Clark asked with nervousness in his voice.

"Yea," they both replied.

"Was Diana or Chloe ever like this…um you know loud?"

"You mean squeezing the life out of your hands and screaming profanity?" Calvin asked.

"Threatening to kill you at any cost and promising no sex?" Bruce asked.

"Yea something around those lines," Clark said.

"Of course, they blamed us for getting them pregnant and so they us blamed for their pain."

Clark put his head in his hands while Calvin and Bruce chuckled at Clark's expense.

The men stood once they heared Lois yelling at the top of her lungs. Suddenly there was silence, followed by a baby crying.

A smile formed on Clark's face as he looked over at Calvin and Bruce. They both gave him a hug congratulating him and welcoming him into fatherhood.

Chloe and Diana popped in motioning the men to come in. When they were all sanitized, Clark's mother motioned for him to come over. She was standing over Lois who was holding a baby boy. He walked over to the love of his life.

Lois smiled at him, encouraging to come over and when he finally did she handed him his new son.

"Clark I would like you to meet Aidan, your son."

Clark looked at his son who snuggled deeper into his arms. He had Clark's features. Clark let his emotions take over. He was overjoyed with happiness.

"Hey, little man, I'm glad you're here. You know your mother is crazy right?" everyone laughed, " but she is strong and loyal and I love her just like I love you. I just want to let you know I will be here for you," he kissed his son's forehead.

He turned to Lois, handed Aidan to her and kissed her. He sat down next to them, watching sleep overtake them. He would make sure the loves of his life stayed safe.

"Clark wake up."

Clark sat up, "Yea what's wrong, Diana?"

"I've been trying to wake you for five minutes now...I just need someone to talk too."

"Um yea sure."

Clark stood up groggily and followed Diana out into the garden. They sat by the bench as an awkward silence passed.

"What's wrong?" Clark finally asked.

Diana sighed. She might as well come out with it, "I'm pregnant with Calvin's child."

"Wow um congratulations," Clark said clearly shocked.

Diana smiled softly, "Thank you, I didn't tell Calvin yet."

"You didn't get to because he is missing."

She nodded sadly, "I'm afraid I may never see him again."

Clark looked at her as he rubbed her back comfortingly, "He will get out of this, I know he will. Calvin is a fighter."

She laid her head on his shoulder, "I know he is a fighter but he's been through so much and I don't know if he can take it anymore."

"He has a lot to fight for Di. He loves you so much and I know he would do everything in his power to come back to you. Keep hope alive."

"Thank you."

"No problem. Did you tell Bruce yet?"

"Yea he was surprised but happy. Now he wants me to take it easy."

"Which you should…"

"Clark, I know my limits. I'm a big girl, I can take care of myself."

"I know just take it easy. By the way, how could you pick me up earlier?"

Diana smiled a little bit, "I'm known as Princess Diana of Themyscira I was awarded several gifts by the Olympian gods."

"Is that the reason why you are strong and look like a goddess?

Diana laughed, "You can say that. I will tell you everything some other time."

Clark nodded. They both headed back to the house to hear arguing.

"Bruce I have to do this!"

"It is too dangerous! I'm not going to lose you."

"You won't if you would just listen!"

"What's going on?" Clark asked stopping the whole argument.

Chloe turned to Clark, " Bruce doesn't want me to go with the plan I have."

"You know very well that it's dangerous. We can't take that risk."

"What's the idea?" Diana asked.

"Use me to find Calvin," Chloe said.

Calvin was on the hard cold floor in his cell. He stared at the dark wall in front him. He hadn't answered Lex's or Spencer's questions making them much more angry. Spencer tortured him repeatedly but the young man never asked for mercy. He was bandaged up again it seemed like whenever Calvin started to heal they would beat him again, torture him to no end. It felt as if Calvin's soul was being ripped from his body after every beating.

His hazel eyes that were filled with joy were now dark and filled with pain. Any person in his condition would have cried, but he didn't. If he did it would show he was weak and he wasn't the person to give up, well at least for now. No, he couldn't think that way. Dying was not an option. If the rumor was true and Chloe would be kidnapped he needed to make sure she was safe even if it meant more torturing. He also needed to stay alive for his girlfriend and possibly an unborn child. He wanted to live, he had to live.
