Chapter 19

It had been a week since the newspaper incident. Everything had gone back to normal, except for Lois, who now chose to ignore Clark and Jimmy. Clark didn't mind a bit. At least now he could work in peace.

It was the weekend, and Clark and Clarence had been watching a movie at his place. Diana had an important meeting that she couldn't miss. The boys were going to Jimmy's place later that evening for the party, and Diana promised them that if she got off from the meeting early, she would join them.

Diana was in her room getting ready. Clark was about to get something to drink when he heard her call, "Kal."

"Coming, darling!" Keeping the can of diet coke back in the fridge, Clark made his way into the room. Not before saying, "Hey Clarence, pause the movie."

Diana was standing in front of the mirror, wearing a denim colored pencil style dress. Clark's brow shot up when he saw there was no zipper in the back but buttons in the front. Diana smiled seductively, gesturing to help her with the buttons.

Clark shook his head and whispered. "No, Di. You and I know very well what will happen next. Clarence is just outside."

"Maybe we can head over to the fortress tonight?" Diana asked as she started buttoning her dress. She grabbed a black belt from the closet and a black cardigan. She left her hair open, letting her luscious locks fall over her shoulders. Slipping the belt and the cardigan into her bag, she turned to face Clark, who was very quiet.

"We'll see," he finally said and moved closer to peck her cheek. Diana watched in surprise as he walked out of the room. She followed him out to see him scowling at Clark 2.

"I didn't see anything!" Clark 2 said with his hands up.

"But you heard everything!" Clark shot back as he plopped on the couch next to Clark 2 and started the movie again.

Diana smiled at the two, said goodbye and left quickly.

"Will she be at Jimmy's party?" Clark 2 asked once Diana left.

Clark shrugged. "I hope so. Jimmy's parties are usually boring. He invites too many people from work. And most of the time doesn't even know the guest personally."

"Like me, you mean?" Clark 2 grinned. "He doesn't know me, but he still invited me."

"He invited Mrs. Strudwick last time, she came along with her husband and grandchildren. Jimmy had to hide the booze."

Clark 2 chuckled. "I hope it's fun. And I might have to borrow a tie or something."

"Nothing formal, Clarence. But if you wanna borrow something, go right ahead."

The boys finished the movie and stepped out to grab some lunch before getting ready and leaving for the party. Clark chose to wear his usual Clark Kent attire – Jeans, a dark t-shirt with a jacket on top. He grabbed his glasses and turned around to see Clarence walking out of the guest bedroom, dressed in jeans and a button-down shirt and the tie that he had borrowed from Clark.

Clark 2 twirled around for him. "How do I look?"

Clark chuckled. "Weird. We should get going."

"Are you going to fly?" Clark 2 asked, following Clark out of the door and going down the stairs.

"Of course not, Clarence! We will walk."

The other Superman rolled his eyes and followed Clark quietly. Jimmy's place wasn't really far from Clark and Diana's, so the boys reached early and were able to help Jimmy set up things.

"Guys, thank you!" Jimmy called out once Clark and Clark 2 had put all the furniture to the sides and helped Jimmy set the table.

"No worries, Jimmy. Happy to help!" Clark smiled and turned away to check his phone when he heard a ping. It was a text from Diana; she was going to join them at the party later.

"Yeah. You got a nice place here, Jimmy!" Clark 2 said, looking around the moderately decorated apartment.

"Thanks, Clarence. And thanks for coming to the party! I'm so happy you are here," the redhead said, running around, arranging things.


Soon, guests began to come in and everyone was mingling. Clark introduced Clark 2 as his cousin and a lot of ladies took interest in him. Clark 2 brushed them all off by saying he was with a beautiful girl that he loved with all his heart. Clark smiled and leaned against the wall, talking to Kara, who was busy telling him how fast Barry was running now.

"Any day now, Clark!" Kara said happily. "He will be running fast enough to open a barrier. Clarence can finally go home."

Clark turned to face her with a small smile. He had gotten used to Clarence so much that he knew it would eventually hurt when he left.

Clark 2 was busy talking to Cat Grant and other ladies from Daily Planet that he didn't notice Lois Lane behind him. Heartbeats were off on this earth, but he still managed to recognize Diana in any world.

When he felt someone touch his back, he jumped. Clark 2 frowned when he noticed it was Lois.

"Is there something you need, Miss Lane?" he asked in a stern tone.

"Oh yes," she replied, all the while a finger traced a path over his arm. Clark 2 moved away again and frowned at her. "Diana is here. She's calling you," Lois said.

Clark 2's shoulders eased. Diana was here? Then why wasn't she with Clark? Maybe she wanted to have a word with him alone.

Sighing, he replied, "Lead the way."

"Follow me," Lois said as she walked away to a room.

Clark and Kara were so busy talking to Barry on the phone in the balcony that they missed Clark 2 leaving with Lois. Barry had just called to tell them that he had managed to open a very small barrier just now. If things went well, he could run even faster and make it bigger.


Meanwhile, Clark 2 raised a single brow as he walked into Jimmy's guest bedroom and found out he was alone. Well, almost. Lois had followed him in. But Diana wasn't there. Clark 2 stood quietly facing away from Lois as he closed his eyes and tried to concentrate on Diana's heartbeat. It wasn't in this room, for sure. But very close.

When he heard a click, he turned around to see that Lois had just locked the door. There she stood leaning against the door, smiling seductively.

"What are you doing?" Clark 2 demanded.

Lois began to walk towards him and grabbed him by his tie. She violently tugged at it and tired to rip his shirt off.

"No!" Clark 2 screamed but couldn't push her away. He would break her bones if he did.

She pushed him on the bed and said, "Let's face it, we both know we have wanted this since the minute we set eyes on each other. Give in to your pleasure, Clarence."
