Chapter 1
Chloe sighed after knocking for about half of an hour on her cousin apartment door which was over the
Café Talon she gave up after getting no answer.
Putting the coffee and bagels she had brought with her down on the floor ..she opened her bag to search for the spare key she always had with her for emergencies.
She shook her short blond hair with a chuckle as she heard how her cousin song to one of her favorite songs.
The music was so loud that her dear cousin could not hear that someone behind the door was knocking on it and Chloe could only imagine what her older cousin was doing.
Dancing and singing out the top of her lungs while she was …While she was doing what ??
Chloe once again shook her head as she thought about it ….She never knew why she did a dance and sing session once in a while… probably because it made fun Chloe could remember how much she had when she was losing herself with her cousin…
Finally finding the key she held it up to her face and let a small “Haa”! out of triumph out.
Opening the door she found Lois just as she had imagined.
Her back was turning to her as she was shaking her butt to the rhythm of the beat.
Quietly Chloe walked up to her she raised her hand and as she touched her cousins shoulder …the older turned startled around holding a vase over her head ready to ..crash it down over whoevers head that was sneaking to her from behind.
“Chloe”!! Frowning at her she slowly put her hand back down…as Chloe still held one over her face.
“What are you doing here and why are you sneaking up to me like that”?
Blinking her eyes open Chloe slowly lowering her hand of her face and walked to the CD player to lower the sound of the music.
“I didn’t want to but you didn’t give me another chance I knocked for about an hour, but you didn’t hear me so I took the key” Chloe crossed her arms over her chest and looked indicting at her.
Biting on her bottom lip Lois only shrugged with her shoulders “Opps”
Rolling her eyes Chloe only now noticed how the apartment looked like looking around her she uncrossed her arms and looked back at her cousin
“Lois are you moving out”?
“Yes I am” taking a deep breath Lois turned her back to her and put the vase she still had in her hand in one of the moving boxes that stood on the counter of the kitchen.
Chloe opened her mouth then shut it again pressing her lips tightly together she walked up to her cousin.
Laying a hand on Lois arm she let her turn around to her to face her.
“Why didn’t you tell me? I could help you just like you helped me and Jimmy moving out of her beside where are you moving to”?
“Metropolis ..you know because of the Planet it will be easier for me if I only life 5 minutes away from it”
Smirking Lois said “And to be honest I was tempted not to rent one apartment ..I could sleep at the Planet …I am most of the day and night there anyway”.
Brushing a strand of blond her off her forehead Chloe said” Ok I can understand that but why didn’t you tell me sooner that you were moving out of her”?
“Chloe only 3 months ago Jimmy came back from Star City you moving out with him happened so quickly I just wanted you to have time with him….
For him…after all he had been through”.
Chloe noticed how her cousin started to play with the hem of her shirt as her eyes lowered to the ground.
“Lois you just came back 3 months ago as well …after getting hurt by –“ Her voice broke after Chloe remembered how injured her husband and cousin had been.
No one was so badly injured like her husband Jimmy but it had still been hard to see her strong older cousin in that state …so pale and fragile lying in that hospital bed, but she had recovered quickly but she didn’t come back home after that she stayed in Star City with jimmy…while Chloe his wife wasn’t by his side ….couldn’t be by his side ….but it still made her feel guilty for not being there.
When he needed her…..When they needed her.
Breaking out of her thoughts Chloe looked back up into her cousins amber eyes “We had all a hard time Lois..and if something I have learned from it all is that I want to be close to you. Know help and support you by whatever it is”
Slowly Lois nodded as a smile came to her lips “Even if it means for you to carry heavy 100 boxes the stairs up and down”.
Chloe faked a wince before she smiled nodding her head she took the box that stood on the top of the counter.
“Even that ..lets go” She pointed with her head to the door as Lois smiled back.
Taking one box into her hands she followed her petite blond cousin out to her car.
“Wow finally you are taking me to your new apartment”.
Glancing to her passenger seat Lois shook her head “What do you mean with finally? …You just found out about 2 hours ago ..that I was even moving out”.
“Well that doesn’t matter because you were planning that all for a long time and because I only found out about it right now it makes me feel like …”
Chloe frowned and shut her mouth.
Glancing back at her Lois said “Yeah..”?
“Its like I knew about the apartment all along and you! Only now want to show me and the wait made me me…-“
“Angry”?
“Does it make sense”?
Lois pursed her full lips “Huhu sure”
Chloe send her a cold stare of her blue eyes before she started to look back out of the car window.
Swinging their heads up and down to the song that was playing out of the radio the two broke out in laughter as they turned their heads to each other at the same time.
“This is your apartment”!!!
Chloe was standing at the doorway …her eyes wide open as she looked into Lois knew apartment.
“Chloe please would you lower your voice and come in”
“I ..I can’t believe you are moving in her”!?!
“It’s close to the Planet”! Lois said with a sigh.
“This is the only good reason for ever moving in here. Lois it is shabby…and the guys next door to you.
I don’t know they look creepy and I am not sure you could borrow sugar from them when you need it.”
Closing the door behind her Chloe walked closer to her “Maybe they could offer you something more powdery..” with a sniff …Chloe looked around herself like any minute something could attack her.
“Lois I don’t feel well letting you live here”
“Oh come on Chloe it isn’t so bad and the guys are
really nice you just have to know how to talk with them”
“Sure Lois..noo we are leaving right now” taking Lois arm Chloe tried to led Lois out.
Laughing Lois stopped her by putting her hands on her shoulder “Chloe you are overreacting more than Oliver did”
“Oliver saw that and was ok with you living here”?
She swirled her arms around her.
Lois put some strands of her hair behind her ear “He is not really ok with it but …it’s my choice and I already made my decision ”
“Ok then I have to respect that but we should put on more locks on the door”
“That was my plan ..Oliver will put 5 on them on my door”
“Good man”
Lois smiled at her and led her to the only item furniture in the apartment her green Sofa.
“Let’s order some pizza and relax for the rest of the day”
“That’s a good idea …Lois”?
“Yes”
“Do you know that will happen with the Talon apartment”?
“No but..Lana is back in town maybe she will move in”
“I don’t think so she is living with Clark at the farm”
“Oh”
Chloe turned her face to her cousin and looked for a long time at her profile.
She saw sadness in her face and Chloe wished she knew what happened with her cousin and her best friend at her wedding.
“Lois about you and Clark”
“What about me and Smallville”? Lois head shook up
looking brightly at her..but Chloe could see it was fake.
“What happened…. at the wedding”
Lois held her hand up “Chloe I know that it was your wedding but I intended to forget everything that happened on that day ..everything”.
“Ok” Chloe didn’t dare to try and ask again.
