Every Kind Of Way
"Every Kind of Way" by H.E.R is such a beautiful song that of course reminded me of the Power Couple :)
Chiro Village, Cambodia
"Chester be sure to get good pictures, please? Especially of the children."
"Of course, Professor Kapatelis!" He smiled. "I've gotten some amazing shots so far. You will love the power point I'm working on."
"Good! Good!"
Professor Julia Kapatelis, took a couple of her students who volunteered to go on a summer trip to Cambodia.
"Professor, I'm almost done with my third write up, I just need an additional comment from Miss. Prince. Have you seen her?"
"Hmm? No actually I haven't." Julia looked around. "Vanessa?" She called spotting her daughter.
"Yes, Mother?"
"Have you seen Diana?"
"Oh yeah. She was reading to a couple of kids by the river."
"Oh how nice! Chester, go with Sophie to get a picture."
"And that Yopp... That one small extra Yopp put it over! Finally, at last! From that speck on that clover their voices were heard! They rang out clear and clean. And the elephant smiled. "Do you see what I mean?... They've proved they ARE persons, not matter how small. And their whole world was saved by the Smallest of ALL!" "How true! Yes, how true," said the big kangaroo. "And, from now on, you know what I'm planning to do?... From now on, I'm going to protect them with you!" And the young kangaroo in her pouch said,...
"...ME, TOO! From sun in the summer. From rain when it's fall-ish, I'm going to protect them. No matter how small-ish!"
The End
"Please read one more? Promise it will be the last this time."
Diana smiled. "Its time for you all to head home for dinner."
The kids pouted a bit. "Ok..."
"Tomorrow I will sit with you all in your class. So how about I read the next book then, ok? Can we do that?"
The children lit up. "Yay!"
Diana laughed softly.
"Miss Prince? Can we get a picture with all the kids before they go?"
"Why of course!"
The children happily crowded around Diana with huge grins.
"Fantastic...fantastic picture!" Chester smiled proudly.
"Alright, kids, go home and get plenty of sleep to get up for school! We will have lots of fun, I promise!"
"Yay!" The kids ran off racing home happily laughing.
"Miss Prince, I need one more word from you for my article?"
"Yes, Sophie. Well, these past 3 weeks has been a lovely learning experience. It's really amazing here and I hope that there is another opportunity like this in the near future. Of course if the university will allow it...which I'm sure they will," she laughed softly.
"Oh yeah! When we have our class showcase, I think we will be taking a lot of more around the world trips. It's going to be awesome!" Sophia squealed happily. "Thank you so much, Miss. Prince!"
Diana smiled. "No need to thank me, Sophie."
"Diana! Diana!" Vanessa called running toward her.
"Vanessa, what's wrong?!"
"You have a call!" She grinned widely.
"A call?"
Vanessa grinned wider. "Yes! From a very handsome man back home!" she said handing her the cell phone.
Diana instantly blushed and couldn't help smiling as she put the phone up to her ear.
"Hello? Clark?"
"Di! Hey! Did I catch you at a bad time?"
"No not at all..." Diana playfully shooed Vanessa.
"Is Vanessa trying to listen again?"
Diana giggled. "Yes...she is."
Vanessa gave a shocked look. "Alright! Alright! I'm going!" She laughed walking away.
"Now we are alone."
Clark chuckled. "I made it home but I miss you. I miss hearing that beautiful voice of yours."
"I miss you, and hearing your voice, too. I'm so glad you called. How did the mission go?"
"Eh...I had a laser battle with a few red lanterns."
Diana giggled. "Sounds fun. I know how resilient my man is."
"Oh yeah it was definitely fun to get blasted right in the middle of my chest. But enough about me, I want to hear about how your trip is going?"
"It's beautiful here. The children are so sweet and love all the books I have been reading to them. I had to compromise earlier telling them we will read more tomorrow in class."
"It's no surprise the kids have become attached to you so quickly."
"I wish you could be here. They would become attached to you as well."
"How about we make a plan to do that together?"
"Really, Clark?!" Diana asked excited.
"Yeah, definitely!"
"You know how badly I just want to kiss you right now!"
Clark laughed. "I know. I know."
"I think we still have a couple more days to be here."
"Don't worry. We will have plenty of time to do a lot of kissing and some."
"Mmmhhh...I can't wait for the 'and some'..." Her voice changed to a low seductive tone.
"I really need these last days to pass be quickly now."
Diana giggled.
"I don't want to hold you up any longer and I'm on way to the Fortress to check on Krypto and get a scan."
"Ok...Please get some rest."
"I will and you too. I love you."
"I love you, too."
Hanging up the phone, Diana still couldn't stop smiling.
It's hard to believe it's been ten years since Diana first met Clark Kent and within those ten years they have built such a strong bond, dating for fours years of the ten and now living together for the last two years.
Her life has drastically changed so much for the better. She was proud of her accomplishments, proud of the choices she has made thus far. Right or wrong, at the end of it all, she has learned and grown from it.
As she walked back up to meet with Julia, she heard a baby crying. She titled her head curious and followed the cry.
She then saw a woman walking back and forth, cradling her baby. While her older daughter, who looked to be at least 5, was tugging at her dress for attention.
Diana looked around quickly to find a student who was carrying around a box of toys.
"Jackson! Jackson, wait please."
He stopped and turned around. "Yes, Miss Prince?"
"You wouldn't happen to have a doll in that box, would you?"
"Uh? I think so..." he kneeled down and put the box down looking through it. "Uhh...yeah! Right here!"
"Thank you so much!"
"No problem!"
Diana walked up to the mother with the doll.
"Hello," she smiled.
The woman looked up at her. "Oh, hello."
"May I?" Diana asked showing the doll.
The woman smiled and nodded.
Diana kneeled down to the daughter.
"Hi, what's your name?"
"Autumn."
"My name is Diana and I brought you something you might like."
Autumn gasped happily as Diana handed her the doll. Autumn took the doll and hugged it close.
"Thank you!"
"You are very welcome."
Diana stood up and looked at the crying baby.
The woman was slightly hesitant but then handed the baby to Diana.
Diana smiled wider. "Such a precious bundle of joy." Diana cradled the baby closely. "Shh...it's alright, little one." She started humming a soft lullaby.
When the baby started calming down, Diana smiled again and continued humming.
Julia spotted Diana as she walked down the hill. It warmed her heart as always to see Diana so loving and caring to everyone she meets, especially children.
"One day, Diana. One day."
The Next Day: Afternoon...
"So when we get back I have to really rev up practice for my recital. I really need to go shopping for new leotards, but I can't decide the colors and-" Vanessa stopped talking abruptly looking at Diana, who was staring out at nothing in a daze. "Diana?" She leaned forward and snapped her fingers in front of her face. "Hey? Diana?"
Diana jumped slightly blinking. She looked at Vanessa and frowned confused. "What were you saying?"
"What all did you hear?"
Diana pondered for a moment. "I'm sorry, Nessa."
"What are you thinking about?" She asked then grinned. "Are you thinking about a certain Superman?"
Diana blushed and put her head down smiling.
"You are really in love with him. You either can't stop thinking about him or can't stop talking about him," Vanessa teased. "Mother told me she saw you holding a baby yesterday. Seems like you've caught baby fever."
Diana looked up. "Baby fever?"
"Yeah, you know wanting a baby of your own...and with Clark."
"Oh, well, possibly," Diana blushed more.
Vanessa squealed. "I'm so happy for you, Diana! Being so in love, it's so cute and adorable! You know I wonder how a super baby will be? Seeing a baby fly around would be so oh my gosh!" Vanessa jumped up and down in her seat excited.
Diana laughed. "It's not happening right now though, Nessa. Kal and I have a lot of responsibilities and I can't take leave anytime soon from the Embassy. But when we do have a child, our child will be our number one priority."
"Awe! Diana!"
Vanessa's cell phone started ringing.
"It's Mom," she said to Diana. "Hello?...Yeah, we are done, just having a chat...Really? What? Tonight?...Ok, well we are on our way back now. See you in a few."
"What's wrong?"
"So the University called Mom and there was something about a scheduling mix up but there's a mandatory event and mom has to be there. So we will be heading back home tonight." Vanessa smiled. "Did you want to call Clark and let him know?"
Diana smiled. "No, I will surprise him."
After an 18 hour flight, they were all back home in the US. Diana stayed with Julia and Vanessa for one more night. Early the next morning, Diana headed home to Metropolis.
Metropolis: Clark and Diana's Apartment
Clark leaned back on the couch with his laptop. He stared at his screensaver, which was a picture of Diana. He just couldn't stop thinking about her. She was everything to him and she filled him with so much joy he never thought he would have.
For the longest time he couldn't be one hundred percent with any one. He constantly isolated himself, and no one could truly understand him. Being with Diana changed everything for the better for him and he wouldn't want it any other way. He loved and was deeply in love with his Amazonian Goddess
He looked over and saw his cell phone buzzing. He picked it up and looked at the screen. Realizing it was Diana he quickly sat up and answered.
"Hey Di!"
"Hey, my Love. How are you?"
"Bored. Missing you. How's your trip going?"
"Oh just fine and I miss you too. I was calling to tell you that there will be a special delivery today."
"Special delivery, huh? What is it?"
"Well it's something that you love and have been anticipating getting your hands on for a couple of weeks now."
"Hmm..?" Clark pondered for a moment then sat up more and placed his laptop on the coffee table. "The only thing I want to get my hands on is you."
"With that in mind, I think the delivery will be of satisfaction."
Knock. Knock.
Clark frowned. "Hang on, Di, someone's at the door, must be your delivery but this early?"
"The wonders of express..."
Clark chuckled. "Yeah, that is-" Clark stopped talking abruptly as he opened the door. His jaw dropped.
"Special delivery for Mr. Clark Kent," Diana said with a huge grin.
Clark quickly grabbed her pulling her close into a passion filled kiss. Diana squealed and laughed softly wrapping her arms around his neck. Clark then lifted her up slightly.
"God, I missed my gorgeous goddess." Clark kissed all over her face making her laugh softly. He set her down and got her luggage. "So what happened? Trip was cut?"
"Yes, the University needed Julia back."
After Diana shut the door and locked it, she looked at him and bit her lip. All this time, he was on her mind and now they were together. She wanted him on her, now.
"Kal? Just set those there. I'll get them unpacked later."
She stepped closer to him and pressed up against him. She moved his arms around her waist then put her hands on his shoulder, leaning up to kiss him softly. She pulled away slightly to look into his eyes. She wanted him to know she wanted him to hold her closer than they've ever been before.
Clark smiled and lifted her up, wrapping her legs around his waist. He floated to their bedroom and gently laid her down on the bed. Slowly he pulled Diana's shirt off her body. He kiss down her neck and over her shoulder, then to her collarbone and down near her bra. Diana moaned quietly and tugged at his shirt. Clark nodded and he broke the kiss to pull it over his head. Diana sat up and kissed him again as Clark moved his hands down her back and she moaned in his mouth and ran her hands over his chest.
After stripping each other out the rest of their clothes, Diana wrapped her arms around Clark's neck and pulled him with her as she laid back down. Clark ran his hands up and down her thighs. Diana deepened the kiss and gasped when Clark bit her bottom lip. She grasped his shoulders and arched her back as he started to kiss down her neck again.
She moaned louder in his ear when he hit a soft sweet spot on her neck and tightened her grip on his shoulders. They were in such a blissful state. They wanted to take their time loving each other in every kind of way. They wanted to please each other, no matter how long it took.
Clark began to trail down her body. He started slowly, making his way to her chest, listening to Diana's sweet, innocent moans of pleasure, driving him even wilder.
A shriek left Diana's pert lips as his teeth tug at her peaked nipple. Pleasure coursed through her and the heat of her glistening sex rose. Her lover smirked, loving the texture of her soft flesh beneath his tongue as he flicked the deliciously hardened bud back and forth vigorously. The sensitive Amazon squirmed, while her tightly balled fists clenched the covers taking in all the sensation of Clark's warm mouth engulfing her other breast.
Clark loved worshipping her body. Diana was so responsive to his caresses and fit so well with his body, he couldn't help coming back for more time and time again like a wolf to it's favored hunting ground.
Clark looked up at Diana seeing lust swirl within her eyes as she watched him shift and trail his wide flat tongue down the length of her torso, dip into her belly button, across her slender hip, and stopping at her damp thighs where he nipped and began to suckle.
Her soft smooth skin felt soothing against his pliant muscle as it lathered the love bite with affection. His hands massaged teasingly on her sensitive inner thighs, sliding agonizingly slow towards the centre of her lust.
Glistening folds were spread with his thumbs, revealing arose swollen flesh ready for the taking. Peaking from over the rise of her hips, their eyes met and in no time, his skillful tongue worked its way towards the peaking button that always brought forth an amazing reaction from his sweet Amazonian Goddess.
Diana closed her eyes, arching perfectly and came forth a long drawn out moan as her center was stimulated with gentle, lazed circular motions. Clark wrapped his lips around the bundle of nerves and gave a teasing suck, enjoying her aroused facial expressions. His eyes wondered up over her hip, gazing as he repeated the action, nipping to catch another reaction.
Diana's breathing became ridged and while he licks, she called out his name. She reached down running her hands through his curly hair. Her mouth fell open in a near silent scream.
Hypersensitive flesh hummed as Clark slowed to add in a finger and then another. His fingers delved time and time again into slick, tight walls that had Diana spiraling toward an amazing climax.
"Oh Gods, Kal!"
She gripped his hair tighter as she released and Clark lapped up her juices.
He went back up to her lips.
"You taste sweeter than any else sweet," Clark said.
Diana smiled then kissed him again, hungry and insistent.
As Clark settled between Diana's legs, she wrapped her legs around him. Her soft, warm lips touched his cheek. Clark was eager to feel her achingly tight flesh clamp around him. As he pressed forward, he groaned low as velvety petals parted for him and hugged his length exquisitely.
Diana moaned as each spectacular inch fit snugly inside her. Once Diana felt him sheathed to the hilt, she whimpered out unconsciously to her lover with the slightest of movements. Clark pulled back his hips, then Diana fiercely cried out as Clark snapped forward.
"Oh Gods, Kal! Yes!"
Her ankles locked tight around his waist, such as her arms gripping at his shoulders as his thrusts doubled in speed and plunged as deep as she could take, towards the brink. She moaned loudly feeling his shaft penetrate more forcibly along her tightening walls.
Diana's hips jumped forward in the excitement of feeling the coil coming close to its snapping point. Clark held her firm ass in each palm, gripping her there, bringing her up to meet each and every thrust with just as much passion being exerted against her body, onto his. Diana moaned his name continuously as Clark sucked on her neck.
Steadily Clark pounds back into Diana's core, pounding through her orgasm, causing her to dig her nails into his back.
When Diana caught her breath, Clark flipped over on his back. Diana rose up looking into his eyes, with lust and passion filled in hers. She placed her hand over his heart.
Clark placed his hand over hers and gripped her hip with the other.
"You are my..."
"Everything..."
"And so much more."
Diana leaned down and kissed him softly as she slowly began to ride him. Clark broke the kiss, breathing deeply. He cupped her breast and took one of her nipples into his mouth, sucking, teasing with his tongue. Diana moaned his name loudly and felt herself clench around his hardened well endowed length even more.
"Oh, Clark...Kal...my Love."
Clark eased to sit up and Diana placed her hands on his back, clawing into his skin. He grabbed her hips and thrusts into her, making her throw her head back and scream.
"Di..."
She looked at him. Gods that sexy smirk of his. She stared into his ocean blue eyes as she rode him. She took complete control over their movements. Clark buried his face in her chest again, softly biting, licking and sucking on her breasts.
The head board started to bang harder and louder on the wall as they moved faster and faster. Within a few seconds of her orgasm, Diana placed her hands on his chest pushing him to lay back down as she leans down placing her hands on either side of his head. Clark immediately tightened his grip on her hips increasing their pace further.
Diana's earth shook furiously as her liquefied, insides fluttered against hardened flesh moving simultaneously with hers in passionate need for release. Clark captured her open mouth with his, locking every inch of their bodies, as he swelled and spilled inside her welcoming cavern of heat. Their bodies quaked with such a shattering climax, that Diana collapsed upon him, and they held each other so tightly in a passionate embrace.
Chests heaving, Clark rolled them over to lay on their sides. Diana draped her leg over his hip. She cupped his check and their lips met again and again lazily taking in as much of one another as possible.
They stayed there for a while, holding each other, sharing light kisses and whispering sweet nothings to each other.
After a few more minutes, Diana rested her cheek against the spot right over Clark's wildly beating heart. Clark slowly rubbed her back as Diana closed her eyes and fell asleep. He kissed the top of her head and he too, drifted off to sleep.
A couple of hours later...
Diana yawned in exhaustion and stretched as much as she could before realizing Clark was laying on top of her. She looked down at him with a smile and cradled his head.
Clark loved laying on Diana's breasts as they were like two soft fluffy pillows. Diana of course didn't mind at all. She ran her hand through his hair and sighed lovingly.
Diana had realized time and time again how serious it's been to be very much in love. It scares her a bit at times, though. Her mother and the other Amazons told her horrid stories about man's world but it's nothing like what they described. It's not perfect but it's far from what they wanted her to believe.
Relationships be it, platonic or romantic are quite difficult and challenging. However, Diana has learned so much, from knowing and understanding her feelings to accepting and understanding ways of man's world. It was about finding balance. It took some time but with Clark, they've found balance together.
She remembered before they started dating, when they knew their relationship as friends had evolved into more, Clark doubted himself. He felt that he was just a guy from a small town in Kansas and her being a Goddess and Princess she deserved better than even him. Though, that didn't matter to her. His love was a billion times more than enough...more important to her than titles of Princess and Goddess, more than powers. She fell in love with his pure heart and soul. She wanted Clark, wanted to love him, to be with him, and her greatest desire is to start a family one day with him.
Their love has grown far beyond something they could ever explain and maybe it didn't need to be. The thought of missing a man, being in a man's arms, it wasn't bad. It wasn't weak. To be in love was such a beautiful thing. She finally let her amazon barrier of feelings down for him and wanted to express her love in every way because he has earned it and was worthy.
Clark moved his head for his face to be buried in the middle of her breasts.
Diana laughed softly. "What are you doing?"
Clark inhaled deeply taking in her sweet scent, then deep breathed out and kissed the middle of her chest. He looked up at her with a satisfied smiled.
"...soft."
Diana blushed and laughed again wrapping her arms around his neck as he moved up to kiss her lips.
"Sorry to have us almost sleep the whole day away."
"I don't mind, Love. It feels absolutely amazing to finally get sleep because I have my man with me."
Clark smiled and sat up. "Yeah and I'm finally able to lay on these..." he grinned wiggling his eye brows, cupping and massaging her breasts.
Diana laughed and moaned. "Kal!"
"I'm being honest," he laughed. "But seriously, I thought that maybe we can go to the amusement park? See the lights... ride the Ferris wheel."
Diana beamed. "I would love to! Oh and play the game of putting the ball in the basket."
Clark smiled. "Yeah, we can play basketball, too."
Diana looked into his eyes. He was definitely mesmerized. She reached up cupping his face. Clark leaned down and kissed the tip of her nose and her forehead delicately.
Howley's Extravaganza Amusement Park
There is something to be said for the sights, sounds and the smells of an amusement park. The smell of fresh popped corn, hot dogs, corn dogs, funnel cakes and the sweet scent of spun sugar commonly known as cotton candy permeating the air. The flashing lights of the rides that are just begging to be ridden, the screams of the riders, and the faces of the small children as they drag their parents off to see the animals, just add to the atmosphere.
Clark and Diana's first stop was to get wristbands for the rides.
Then at each booth an attendant hung across the counter, calling into a bullhorn, promising prizes to curious by-standers and sympathizing charmingly as the losers walked dejectedly away.
They passed another booth in the long line, but struck with a sudden impulse, Clark stopped abruptly, pulling Diana up short by their entwined hands. She looked back with curiosity that shifted quickly to surprise as he passed several crisply folded bills to the smiling carny in exchange for three scuffed baseballs. Diana lifted a curious eyebrow and crossed her arms with a smile.
Curling the three balls easily in one hand, Clark returned both the smile and the quirked eyebrow and then very deliberately returned two of the balls to the puzzled attendant.
Diana laughed, "Show off."
Clark let the worn leather ball roll fluidly through his fingers and across the back of his hand with effortless grace.
Across the counter the carny looked both impressed and disappointed. "Knock down all three and win a prize for the young lady," he recited dutifully.
"Well," Diana teased, gesturing towards the bottles stacked at the other end of the counter.
With his attention primarily focused on Diana, Clark flipped the ball carelessly towards the three stacked bottles and sent all three crashing easily off the ledge.
The attendant reached up to the colorful assortment of stuffed animals and started to extricate a wide-eyed blue dog from the bunch.
"I want one! I want it! I want to play!"
"You've played already, I'm not wasting anymore money."
"Please! Just one more try!"
Clark and Diana turned to look at a kid crying wanting to play the game for a stuffed bear.
Diana looked up at Clark and smiled. He smiled back knowing what she was thinking. He accepted the plush toy with a short bow of thanks then turned to present it to the kid.
"Here you go, kid."
He jumped up grabbing the bear. "Thank you!"
"Very nice of you but you didn't have to," his mother said.
"It's no problem at all," Clark reassured with a smile.
He playfully ruffled the kid's hair then grabbed Diana's hand as they walked away.
Diana reached up and kissed Clark on his cheek and then with a twinkle in her eyes she said, "I don't need a prize when I have you, Beloved."
Clark leaned closer to her upturned face for a proper kiss.
Afterwards, they played a few more games then rode on mostly every ride, taking breaks in between trying to eat as much of the food as they could.
Soon, it became dark and it was almost time to go.
Kneeling with his back in front of her, Clark looked over his shoulder and said "Hop on."
Diana smiled. "Kal, I'm just fine walking."
"I want to carry you for a little while."
"So sweet."
She then brought her hands on his steady shoulders as Clark grabbed her knees from behind, before standing up carrying her. Diana unknowingly wrapped her hands around his neck. She rested her chin at the top of his head.
"I have never done this before. It's fun!" she said mostly to herself but of course he heard it. And to be honest, he was as excited as she was.
"Well, there's still a lot of things we haven't done but we have time to do most of it if not all, together," he said slightly turning his head to her.
Diana tilted her head so that she could kiss his cheek.
"Last ride," Clark said looking up. Diana raised her head and saw the gigantic Ferris wheel.
Clark set Diana down and they waited in line to get on. When they were finally the next ones in line, Clark took Diana's hand and helped her in the Ferris wheel chair.
"Such the gentleman."
The Ferris wheel began to move, up and around. Diana latched on to Clark's arm tightly and laid her head on his shoulder. When they reached the top, the wheel suddenly stopped and they were on the top of the world. The night sky was dark and they gazed upon the world below them. The lights of the amusement park glowed.
Unexpectedly, fireworks begun and they had the best view out of everyone there.
"It's so beautiful!" Diana gawked at the fireworks.
"Yes, it is," Clark said turning Diana's face to him. "But it still doesn't compare to how beautiful you are." He leaned in and kissed her soft lips.
"I want us to spend our days to the fullest, Kal. I don't want to ever have regrets. I love spending time with you like this. I love you. This isn't a dream. We're here together and it doesn't get any better than this," she told him.
Clark kissed the top of her head lovingly. "I couldn't agree more, Di. I will do all that I can to keep you happy...keep that gorgeous smile on your gorgeous face. I love you, too, so much," he said, taking Diana's face in his hands. Then he kissed her once more, but more ardently.
Diana smiled against his lips and brushed her fingers through Clark's soft, hair. For the entire time they were stopped at the top of the Ferris wheel, they kissed passionately, letting each other know, they will love one another always and forever, in every kind of way.
