The next few weeks seemed almost surreal to Lois. All she could think about was what
was going to be happening to her body over the next eight months and how she had no
control over it. She wasn't used to not having control, and she didn't like it.
It took her awhile to be able to tell Perry, she had no idea how he'd react or if he'd
approve of her decision to keep the baby. In the end he was extremely shocked just as she
and Clark had been but at the same time very supportive and understanding. Although
she'd told Clark and Perry, Lois was still not ready to be the talk of the news room, she'd
take the little time she had left to hide it.
The one upside of the situation had to be Clark he was now treating Lois like royalty
taking her to and from work, cooking her dinner, making sure she had lunch, and
although at one time Lois may have insisted that she'd be fine and could handle
everything on her own. She decided to give in for once and just let it happen, not only did
she like having Clark around she'd never realized how much better it feels knowing that
you have someone there for you.
'7'oclock on the dot as usual' Lois thought as she looked up at the clock after hearing the
now familiar knock on the door. Lois was rushing to finish getting ready for work.
"Come in the doors open!" Lois yelled from the bathroom where she was quickly
brushing her teeth.
Lois heard the front door open. "You know you shouldn't do that, what if it wasn't me?"
Clark asked Lois as he let himself into the living room.
"Who else is at my door every morning at 7?" Lois asked as she came out of the
bathroom.
"With you? It could be anyone." Clark joked as Lois put her jacket on.
Lois sighed as Clark held the door open for her. "You worry too much."
"Hey, it's better to be safe then sorry." Clark replied as he followed Lois towards the
elevator.
As Lois and Clark stood in the Planets elevator waiting to reach there floor Lois couldn't
help but notice how good Clark looked. He was dressed in his normal attire but today for
some reason it just seemed different. He was wearing a normal black suit coat with a blue
button up shirt and one of his usual strange ties, along with matching black trousers, but
for some reason today all Lois could see were his strong arms that his suit definitely
didn't show off but if you looked enough you could defiantly see how built he was not
only his arms but he definitely had a nice ass which his nice fitting pants didn't help hide
one bit.
"Lois?" Clark asked sounding kind of worried as he broke Lois away from her thoughts.
"Are you okay? We're at our floor."
"Oh, sorry." Lois felt her cheeks turn red in embarrassment wondering if he knew she
was staring at him.
As Lois sat down at her desk she couldn't help but to keep looking over at Clark, he
almost looked to good to not look at, but was forced to look away when Clark looked up.
'What is wrong with me?' Lois thought as she quickly looked down feeling herself blush
once again. 'I've never thought about Clark this way…well at least not this much at once.
God he just looks so good. I wouldn't mind taking him back to my apartment and..' Lois
closed her eyes and smiled slightly to herself. 'Wait! What am I thinking? This is Clark
Kent your best friend, not some…play thing.' Lois fought not to smile to herself again
imagining "playing" with Clark. 'No, no, no! I cannot do this I need to concentrate (on
how good Clark looks) no! On my story!' Lois forced herself to read some of her notes
on some sort of bank robberies her and Clark had been researching thinking there may
have been a connection, in hopes to get her mind off of Clark, but decided it was hopeless
when she looked up to see Clark standing next to her desk.
"Find anything yet?" Clark asked looking down on Lois.
"Nope" Lois said trying her hardest to keep her eyes on his face rather than the slight
bulge she could see in his pants. "I'm still looking."
"I haven't found anything yet either." Clark said pulling his chair next to her and sitting
down. "I'm starting to wonder if we were wrong and there is no connection between the
three robberies."
"Yeah maybe we are wrong." Lois replied not really paying attention to the conversation
still unable to concentrate on anything other then Clark.
Clark gave Lois a questioning look." That's not like you, admitting we might be wrong?"
Lois being torn away from her thoughts once again embarrassed that Clark had noticed
her odd behavior. "I uh guess I just don't' feel much like myself today."
"Are you okay?" Clark asked slightly lowering his voice and getting closer to Lois in
attempt to not let anyone hear what they were saying, and placing his hand on Lois's
shoulder. "Nothings wrong with the baby is there?"
"Oh! No, nothing like that!" Lois replied trying to calm the excitement she was feeling
from having him touch her. "I think it's just hormone stuff." Lois said slightly lowering
her voice.
"Oh." Clark said sitting back and removing his hand from her shoulder feeling slightly
embarrassed by his reaction. "Is there anything I can do to help."
Lois had to bite her tongue; a million responses to that question were going through her
mind. "No, no, I'll be fine."
Clark nodded his head "Alright." Lois had been acting kind of strange ever since they had
gotten to work she just didn't seem to be paying any attention and whenever he looked at
her she was staring at him. It doesn't seem that the pregnancy would make her act…like
this. 'But it's not like I've ever been around too many pregnant women.' Thought Clark.
'I'm sure it's normal.' Clark let the thoughts of Lois's behavior go and continued to try to
concentrate on the bank robberies.
