10 Look, the lover of your dreams is dancing with other men

 "Although I am a bit confused and curious about where I come from, this is undoubtedly my home."

Hearing David's words, Clark was silent for a while, and his tone was unprecedentedly serious as if saying it to him seemed to be right. He said to himself, "I'm sure of this, David, you, father, and mother are my family."

I should do everything I can to cherish and protect those things, such as family affection, such as family members...

"Thank you for today's matter, brother."

"What are you doing with this thing?"

Clark, who had always been a bit introverted, expressed his feelings so bluntly, David was not used to it for a while and looked into the distance, trying to change the topic.

"This astronomical telescope was created to help humans observe the space and vast stars of the universe. It is not for people to peek at their crushes in order to have some material for their dreams."

"David, I have never had that idea."

Clark wanted to explain in a panic, he didn't have that idea.

"I understand, I understand."

But David, who was so flustered by one sentence, didn't give him this chance at all, said a sentence that was obviously perfunctory, turned, and left.

[Anxiousness from Clark +7, embarrassment +4...]

Today was different from the past. Many things happened one after another. The Kent couple and Clark had intense emotional ups and downs. David gained a lot of emotional points because of this, and the degree of integration has improved a little.

[Template fusion degree 81% → 83%]

The further back the template is, the more difficult it is to improve the fusion degree. At the same time, a little fusion can bring stronger power than the previous one.

...

The morning wind blows through Smallville High School.

Pairs of sneakers walked here and there in the corridor, the girls whispered and laughed shyly from time to time, and the boys raised their chins and boasted to their friends.

The campus atmosphere is different from the past, and the faces of the students are full of excitement and anticipation.

Tonight is the spring dance.

"You didn't come on the school bus with David again today, Clark."

Pete asked Clark what happened.

"There are some things. I saved someone. He gave me a gift, but I couldn't accept it." Clark explained, "I went to return that gift this morning."

This morning, he didn't complain at all, and he listened obediently to his father, he went to Lex Manor, had a polite chat with Lex Luthor, and returned the pickup truck.

"What gift?"

Pete was about to ask with interest.

"That necklace is very important to me."

The faint voice came, and Lana, who was not far away, looked sad and ugly.

Whitney next to her was covered with a band-aid on his bruised nose and his forehead was red and swollen. He kept comforting his girlfriend and explained the incident in his own words.

"What happened to Whitney's face?"

Pete wondered.

"Maybe he was drunk and fell down?" Clarke explained awkwardly after glancing at David, who had a nonchalant expression.

"That necklace was carved from a meteorite left by my parents when they died in the meteorite rain when I was a child. My aunt left it to me to remind me of my parents, but you lost it."

"In the bar...someone was drunk and deliberately looking for trouble, we fought with them, and after the fight, we found that the necklace disappeared.

Lana, I promise to get it back."

Clark's extraordinary hearing allowed him to hear the conversation between the two and listened to Whitney's act of lying to Lana.

Hearing the origin of Lana's necklace again, he hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and looked at David, with pleading eyes, and opened his mouth to say something.

"You are so kind, Clark."

David felt a little helpless. He had already guessed what he wanted to say and turned to leave.

Although Thanos' physical super hearing is far inferior to that of Kryptonians, this distance is not a problem for him.

Needless to say, Clark was reluctant to give up the opportunity to speak freely with his crush that appeared in his dreams.

But he decided to return the necklace to Lana.

If the necklace is returned back, the emotional rift between Lana and Whitney will be eliminated, Whitney will get back with Lana, and Clark will lose his chance.

"It's too kind to the point of being too much, and it's worthy of being the future Superman."

David can only comment on this.

...

Before the evening dance.

Clark kept pestering David for the necklace.

David was perfunctory.

Why should the kryptonite be sent back?

In addition, Clark has been asking him again and again and has been depositing some emotional points in the account.

Arriving at the ball.

Chloe, who did not have a dance partner, had to come with Pete to avoid embarrassment.

As for David and Clark, neither of them cared about it.

Melodious music, and a bright dance floor in the middle.

Pairs of young men and women in formal dresses met each other with smiles on their faces, dancing together slowly like birds.

By the long dining table.

David took a piece of a snack casually and tasted it.

"Look at that, the lover of your dreams is dancing with other men."

He pointed at the most eye-catching couple in the center with his fork and chuckled to Clark, who was begging continuously next to him.

"Even so, you still want to return the necklace?"

Clark looked at the middle of the dance floor feeling as if his heart was sour after eating a lemon.

Even though she was a little angry, Lana, who didn't know the truth, did not temporarily refuse Whitney's prom invitation under the premise of Whitney's lies and took all of his responsibilities to appease her.

Under the envious eyes of everyone, the two looked into each other's eyes affectionately, dancing slowly, they were the most dazzling couple on the dance floor.

The person he like dresses up for the ball, but not for him.

He's just an inconspicuous transparent person standing on the edge of the ball.

"That's Lana's necklace, David."

Clark couldn't hide his disappointment, but he still said.

David was a little convinced by Clark, and he didn't want to make things worse for him who was poor at this time.

"Okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"Anyway, it's okay if you don't have a chance, Lana is not suitable for you."

Clark's face brightened, and he wanted to ask why he said that.

Suddenly, the fire alarm was triggered on the ceiling above the school auditorium, and the water in the pipes poured down like torrential rain.

"Fuck!"

"Where did the water come from?"

"The fire alarm was triggered, where is the fire?!"

With a scream, everyone in the auditorium was caught off guard and turned into drowned chickens, their delicate makeup was watered, and their hair which was waxed led to it falling down, and everyone was embarrassed and flustered.

The dessert in his hand was soaked, and David looked at the wet clothes on his body, and his face became ugly.

"Is it an accident?"

Clark searched quickly, but he didn't see any fire, not even smoke.

"Is the fire alarm broken?"

Or was the master control outside tripped?

Boom!

At this moment, the door of the auditorium was kicked open suddenly.

There was a clear sound of footsteps.

'Crackling Sound'

"God said that everyone is born with original sin."

In the silence of the audience, looking at this side, a thin figure with a hood came in. He raised his head and showed a cold face. The snake's dazzling electric current sent a burnt smell into the air.

"Although my target this time is not all of you, but..."

Under the horrified and puzzled eyes of everyone, he paused, and his hand loaded with a strong current capable of melting steel suddenly pressed down on a piece of wet ground.

"I don't mind helping you wash away your sins in advance!"
