You wake up on a Saturday morning and walk downstairs to see that auntie Jess left you homemade pancakes on the kitchen table, with a note stuck on the milk carton. “Had to run some errands for my boss today, and I have a work meeting at night, I’ll be back at 12am. I left you some cash on the counter for you to order takeout. Be sure to do your chores before anything else. See you tonight sugar pie! Love, Auntie J.” Woah, so you’re home alone for practically all day. Nice. You ate your breakfast then head upstairs to get changed and then do your hair and brush your teeth. You decided to wear a tank top, denim short, brown boots, and a cowboy hat. You hop outside and realize just how hot it is, which was weird because fall was just around the corner. “Welp, time to get to work.” You say to yourself as you walk off the front porch. About two hours went by and you were almost done with your chores for the day. You fed the animals, picked up some eggs from the chicken coop, cleaned any poo, raked the barn floor, and gave the farm cats some sardines. It was so hot you had to go inside the house nine times to get some cold water. By the time you were done with the first three chores, you were drenched in sweat so you decided to take off your tank top and work around in your Calvin Klein bra. Hardly anyone ever drove past the farm so you had no worries with anyone seeing you working in your bra. The only thing you were hoping for was that Clark wouldn’t see you but he was all the way down at his farm so there was no way he would be able to see you. Right?
Another hour went by and you had one task left to do. Change the lightbulb in the barn. You go to the tool shed to grab a ladder and the only one that was there was almost twice your size, you dragged it back to the barn and it was still too short to reach the lightbulb. As you’re climbing it, you look down to see the goat, Sherman, starting at you. “Don’t even think about it.” You say to him because you were sure he was going to knock over the ladder while you were still on it. “Now, hopefully I don’t get electrocuted.” You say as you unscrew the old light. Thankfully, you got it off safely and now you screw on the new one. You finish but you accidentally dropped the old lightbulb and it shattered on the ground which startled you and made you lose your balance. You try not to fall but you end up accepting your faith and you slip off the ladder. As you’re falling down, you close your eyes you hear a whoosh, the same one you’ve been hearing for a few weeks now. You thought you were done for but then you realized, you didn’t hit the ground. You weren’t in pain, you weren’t screaming in agony, you weren’t crying, you were floating. Well not exactly floating on air, but in someone’s arms. You opened your eyes and it was him. Clark. He caught you just in time before hitting the ground and entering heaven’s gates. “Clark” you sigh as you look into his beautiful blue eyes. “Hey, are you okay? Are you hurt?” He says while still holding you in his arms. “I’m okay” “you know, you really shouldn’t do stuff like that by yourself.” He says and you both giggle, still in his arms. You both look at each other for a moment and you could’ve sworn you could hear the song “Hopelessly Devoted” from Grease, playing in the background but that was mostly definitely your imagination. He looks down for a second and his eyes widened before he shut them tight. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t see anything!” He says and he puts you down carefully while still keeping his eyes shut. That’s when the magic was over and you heard the record screech. That’s was when you realized you were still only wearing your bra as a top. “Oh my god, oh my god, turn around for a second!” You scream as you run to go grab the tank top you took off earlier. As you are putting on he says, “I am so sorry, I didn’t meant to, uh, well, yeah, you know. I swear I am not a pervert!”, you see him turned around, covering his eyes with his hands in embarrassment. It reminded you of the time where he covered his eye while a “romantic” scene was happening while you two were watching Scream at his house the other night.“Alright you can turn around now” you say and cross your arms, trying not to giggle in embarrassment. He turns around slowly with his hands still covering his eyes. He opens his fingers slightly to take a look and then puts his hands down. “I-I ah, I am sorry about that, I didn’t meant it I swear.” He says nervously. “It’s okay I know you didn’t meant to” you smile, then you realized how in the hell was he able to catch you in time before ending up on the towns newspaper. “How the hell did you get here so quick? Were you spying on me or?” You say in confusion. “No! No, of course not. I was just stopping by to see how you were and that’s when I saw you trip and I just ran as fast as I could to catch you.” He says. “How fast do you run, Kent?” You ask again in confusion, “It was just adrenaline I guess.” He smiles. You stop interrogating him and walk up closer to him, “Seriously though, thank you for saving me. Again.” You smile. “No problem. Just don’t climb ladders twice your size from now on.” He jokes and you giggle.
You chat with him in the barn for a while. “Are your parents home? They’re probably worried about you” you tell him since he was gone from him for almost half an hour. “Oh, they’re in Metropolis visiting my dad’s brother, they’ll be back tomorrow. I couldn’t go because I had a lot of chores to do but I got nothing to do now.” He replies. “Well my aunt is running errands for her boss and she said she’ll be back at midnight. And I finished all my chores too.” You say, “You do chores? Woah I never thought you’d actually do them” he teases. “Whatever Kent.” You say and roll your eyes while laughing. “Hey since we’re both free, we should do something.” You say and he smiles, “I’m down for that but what would we do?” He ask. “Well could invite Chloe.” “She’s in metropolis remember? She’s visiting her cousin at Met U.” “Right. What about watching a movie?” “Here or at the Talon?” He ask. You didn’t want to say the Talon even though you wanted to because that could seem like a date, “Here, but I don’t have anything good to watch and I checked the TV guide last night and there’s nothing interesting to watch.” You say, “I can drive us to Blockbuster and we could rent something. My dad left the truck since they left on a taxi. Maybe we could also grab some food or snacks?” He says. So basically it was kind of a date but not really at the same time but you were just happy to spend some time with him. “Sounds good, Kent. Meet me here in an hour with your truck while I shower and get ready.” You say trying not to sound overly excited. “Alright, sounds good. Also, again, I’m sorry for the whole thing that happened a while ago. I swear I didn’t know.” He says, “Its okay, don’t worry about it. Let’s just forget that ever happened.” You reply and make your way to the front porch. “See you in an hour.” “Alright, see you.” He says and walks home. You rushed upstairs to take a shower to get all the sweat and dirt off, once out the shower you rush to your room covering yourself with a pink towel and you pick out your clothes. Since the washing machine has been broken for 3 days now, you had to wear another white tank top and another pair of shorts, but you added some accessories and different shoes to go with it to not make it seem like you put on the same clothes again. You did your makeup and hair pretty quickly and finally, you spray some perfume on. After that, you hear a honk from outside, which was your sign to go. You walk outside and see Clark opening the truck door for you. “Ready?” He ask, “Ready.”
You drive down to the town with the radio on and sing a few songs together which was quite funny since you’re both kinda bad at singing. You see a couple of people from school and worry they might think you’re in a date and go around spreading the rumor, but after some thought, you wouldn’t mind people thinking you are dating Clark. However, maybe he would mind. You had to figure out a way of getting to know if he was genuinely interested in you or if he was just being a friend. “So what type of movie are we watching?” He ask as he parks the car in front of Blockbuster. “Well it depends. We could watch a horror, comedy, chick flick, or action movie.” You say as you unbuckle your seatbelt and grab your purse. “No romcoms?” He says. You didn’t mention romcoms because you thought he probably didn’t like them but turns out maybe he did. “We’ll just have to wait and find out, Clarkie.” You say as you both hop out the truck and close the doors. He holds the door open for you like the gentleman he is and you walk into the store. There is so much to choose from, but you always go over to the horror section first and Clark follows behind you. “What about Halloween 2?” He suggests, “I already watched it and all I gotta say is that the first one is way better.” You giggle. “Tell you what Kent, you pick out two options and I’ll pick out two options. Then before checking out, we’ll pick one of yours and one of mine. Besides we got all day to watch them.” You tell him, “Sounds good” He replies and then goes to another section of the store to look for movies. A couple minutes go by and he comes back to you. “Alright, I picked out Back to the Future and Jurassic Park.” He says while showing you the dvds. He stands close to you and you can smell the cologne on his red flannel. “Well, I picked Saw and Legally Blonde” You say and show him the dvds. “Well we’ve got pretty different tastes.” You say while looking up at him, “Yeah but you know, opposites attract.” He says while looking into your eyes. He was flirting. Right? No, yeah for sure he was. Your heart starts racing and you break eye contact. “Okay so how do we choose?” You ask, “How about, I pick one from your options and you pick one from mine?” He says with a smile. He’s so cute, he’s smile drives you insane every time you see it. “Alright Kent, I picked Back to the Future” You say and grab the dvd from his hand. “Okay, then I pick Saw” he says and grabs the dvd from your hand. You both smile, and head to the checkout.
You walk to the truck with your DVDs and put them in the truck. “What about pizza for dinner?” You ask, it was perfect because the pizza shop is right next to the Blockbuster. “Sounds great, pepperoni?” “Of course”. While he opens the door for you, a group of people from school see you two and start whispering to each other. Clark touches your shoulder for you to walk in side. “Don’t listen to them.” He says while you both wait in line for the pizza, “Well what if they start a rumor?” You reply. “I wouldn’t mind but if you do then we’ll have to prove them wrong.” He says with a smile, and rubs your shoulder. He so sweet, and gentle. “So if he doesn’t mind the dating rumors, does that mean he wouldn’t mind dating you at all?” You think to yourself. You buy a large pepperoni pizza and then walk back to the truck. “Can we stop at the store for some other snacks?” You ask as you buckle your seatbelt, “Sure, no problem.” He says and you drive over to the grocery store. You buy sodas, chips, candy, and cosmic brownies. Basically everything that will make you not fit into your Armani jeans. You also were messing around with the shopping carts. Clark would get on and you would push the cart around. You drive back to your house and you both sing every song that pops up on the radio. You both grab everything from the truck and then walk inside and lay everything down in the kitchen table. “I’m going to gain so much weight from all this” you say as you look at everything you bought, “Don’t say that, and even if you do, it wouldn’t matter. You’re perfect either way” he says. He called you perfect. Your heart begins to beat so much faster and you feel yourself blushing. “Um, w-what movie do we watch first?” You ask and turn to look at him. “You pick. I’ll serve us some pizza and soda.” He says and makes his way to the kitchen. You pick Back to the Future and walk over to the living room to play it on the dvd player. You grab the snacks and place them on the coffee table in the living room. You sit down with the remote in hand and Clark walks over with the pizza and drinks. “Thanks Clarkie” you say while grabbing your pizza. “No problem. Come on let’s start the movie!” He says and you press the play button. The movie was fun, you guys laughed and had a great time and the food was good. “I forgot how great that movie was!” You say as the credits roll. “Alright now it’s time for the real thing.” He says while placing Saw on the dvd player and pressing play. The movie starts and you sit and watch. “I’m going to be honest, I’ve never watched this movie” you whisper to Clark, “You’ve seen every horror movie ever made except this one?” He jokes. “I was supposed to watch it with my friends back in Gotham but then I had to come here.” You say in slight disappointment. “Well you got me now, that can’t be so bad right?” He says and grabs your hand. Your eyes widened a bit and you look down. He immediately realizes and takes his hand away. “S-sorry.” He says in a shy voice. “Well you had no problem putting your arms around me earlier at the barn, Kent. What’s stopping you now?” You say flirtatiously. You scoot closer to him and he takes a deep breath, and puts his arm around you. Your heart starts racing because you’ve been wishing for this moment for a very long time.
You can tell he was very shy at first but he later got more comfortable and less stiff. You also did the same and you even put your head on his chest. You tried not giggling because you heard how fast his heart was beating, so you just stayed there and smiled. Enjoying every moment of it. Everything was good, even the movie, you didn’t want this day to end. That’s until the phone rang and scared both of you. “What time is it?!” You scream and get up from the couch, “Uh it’s, it’s, 7!” He says while looking at the clock in slight fear. “Oh my god it’s my parents!” You scream, “and why is that bad!?” “Because they don’t know you’re here!” “I thought you were allowed to have friends over?!” “Not if it’s just the two of us!” You scream at each other. The phone kept ringing and you decided to answer, “alright I’ll figure something out but you stay quiet, okay?” You tell him and he sits back down and stays quiet. “Hello?” You say through the phone, “Hey honey how are you?” Your mom says, “I am doing fine how about you guys?” You and look at Clark and he’s covering himself with a pillow as if someone is going to jump at him through the phone. “What are you doing? Is anyone home with you?” She ask and your eyes widened. “No, no I’m home alone. Watching, Saw, and, yeah” you say slightly nervous. “What did me and your dad say about watching horror movies at night since you got scared watching the Exorcist and we found you hiding under your bed?” She says, Clark overhears and lets out a giggle before you cover his mouth with your hand. “What was that?” Your mom says as she heard Clark’s giggle, “oh it was the TV, it’s going static hold on” you say and then go bang the TV a couple times so she believes you. “Hey uh hows dad?” You ask, “He’s in a meeting with your godfather Bruce.” She says and you turn to look at Clark and smile because he didn’t believe Bruce Wayne was your godfather. “Well alright honey, I’ll let you watch your movie. Goodnight I love you.” She says, “I love you too mommy goodnight” you say and hang up the phone. “So…the Exorcist huh?” Clark giggles, “Oh shut it” you say and throw a pillow at his face.
The night was still young so you guys chat for a while. Studies show that people are more likely to confess something to you at night, which you might start to believe because you feel like you could tell Clark how you feel about him, but of course, you don’t. “Hey uh, thanks for putting up with me all day. I had a lot of fun.” He says and takes a sip from his soda, “No problem, Kent. Thanks for staying, I had a lot of fun today too.” You reply. In that moment, the phone rings again and you pick up. “Hello?” You say, “Is it true you are in love with farmer boy Clark Kent?” A voice says through the phone. It sounds like this one girl from school but you can’t figure out who it is. Clark hears it too and his eyes widened, “Sorry wrong number” you say and hang up the phone in embarrassment. You both look at each and laugh awkwardly. “So…are you?” He says and your heart drops.
