The Planet graced each guest with something special. Something that they can hold onto from what they left behind. And that was the power to make your room look like anything you could imagine. When Lois would wake up every morning, it felt like she was waking up at her small apartment above the town coffee shop called The Talon. It was the only thing she had left to remember. Every little detail, every dish, every furniture, was all in place.. exactly how it would be if she came back to the real thing. Even though it replicates her home, there was something about the place that made her feel... empty. She was alone.

The determined brunette did spend the last few days finding ways to go back, she even did countless research about the planet. As of right now she knew where everything was, she knew that the resort can change dramatically as well. Lois was beginning to adapt.

Right now, Lois was sitting on her sofa.. her wavy chestnut locks were nicely curled and spilled perfectly down her back.. she wore an aqua coloured teeshirt with a pair of dark denim bootcut jeans.. She was seen holding a framed picture of her and her cousin, Chloe Sullivan.. celebrating a birthday together. She smiled as that moment from the picture was coming to mind. Oh they had a blast. She also remembered how she almost lost Chloe.. and that weakened her smile.. "I am not.. going to lose you again." She said outloud with each word very direct. Her eyes started to water.. but Lois chose to fight her emotions. Lois then realized something.. what if she wasn't the only one who was brought here from Kansas? What if Chloe was wondering around the building right now was we speak? Or Clark for that matter? It was possible.. and the only way to find out was to not be couped up in her apartment. She sprung from her sofa and set the picture back on the end table.

The future star reporter grabbed one her jackets, this one being a women's trench coat due to the crazy weather.. then decided leave her apartment and face the new world again from her old one. Lois felt extremely coffee deprived. It was certainly a substitute from her other habit, which was smoking. And she was not about to ruin all of her hard work-- because she ran out of cigarettes. Lois could easily get some more, but coffee was easier. She left her room building and quickly faced the rain and wind to walk over to the next building which held the Coffee bar and internet room as well as the sitting room. Pushing the doors open knowing well her hair was dampened and tattered from the weather.. but she did not care. She instantly sat herself up at the counter and removed her coat.

"Espresso, pronto." She said quickly towards the stone golem on the other side of the counter. And it was quick.. there was a small glass of espresso sitting infront of her in the next 30 seconds. She picked up the small cup and knocked it back despite how hot it was. It burned her throat and she probably shouldn't have done that. After she swallowed it down she released a nice

"Whoo!--Hold on there Stoney, I need a grande regular with cream and sugar." The stone golem did what it was told and delivered her beverage. Caffeine was like fuel to Lois.. it made her focus more, think straighter, and certainly more alert. Lois decided to take this one a littler slower this time.. holding the hot beverage to lips.. her hazel eyes sort of looking around.. the place was a little busier due to the chaos outdoors. Hoping to see a familiar blonde, or a confused farm boy..

Lois noticed a little change in his behavior.. it was frustrating the hell out of her. It was as if he turned into some kind of.. robot that continually says 'I'm Sorry'.. Which was very rare to hear that come out of Clark's mouth.. and at her for that matter.. Lois noticed his slow movements.. and snatched the ball.. But stopped moving.

"Whoa-whoa hold on. Since when do you suddenly do what I tell you?" She said while she gently tossed it up and catching it again.. Noticing that he abided by her command to put his shirt back on.. She really was shocked. "What is the matter with you? Why aren't you being yourself? Have you already forgotten? It's me.. Good lord, you're giving me the same look you always gave to Lana.."

When she said that out loud she took realization of what she said.. Always speaking before she thinks. Did.. Clark have a crush on her? Sure she felt the same awkwardness when he caught her.. But it was something that never really came to mind.. conciously.. There may have be a subconcious interest.. but Lois never knew that! She was too stubborn to even admit that he was charming sometimes. And heroic. She tossed the ball over her shoulder..

"You win." She said bluntly.. then turned around to walk away. If she stuck around any longer she may have said more than what she should have.

Clark smirked a little as Lana grabbed the ball and took a step forward to try to at least make it look like he was in the game when she stopped, and called him out. He looked rather confused as to what was going on, but stopped, as it was clear they were no longer playing a game. And then she started laying into him. Clark tried to get a word in edgewise, but when Lois got to talking it wasn't like you could just interrupt her. Maybe it was the 'general's parenting, or perhaps it was being an army brat for most of her life, but Lois wasn't one to be interrupted.

"I-" Clark tried to say that he'd been a bit uncomfortable too, but Lois wouldn't let him get a word in... before she said 'that'.

Looking akin to a fish that had somehow stumbled onto land, Clark's eyes bulged slightly as he tried to process what she had just said. She and Lana were complete opposites. Lana was nice, sweet, charming, the sort of lady who melted your heart every time that you looked at her. On the other hand Lois was rude, obnoxious, obscene, not lady like at all, and more than anything ANNOYING AS HELL. The very thought of Clark being attracted to the real life equivalent of the shrew from Shakespeare's 'Taming of the Shrew' was so outlandish he wanted to laugh...

But Lois was serious.

Clark opened his mouth and closed it, thinking of what to say, half snorting a little as if to say 'what is wrong with you?', but then suddenly Lois turned from him, admitting, of all things, defeat. Clark was stunned. Staring at her back he let her walk away a few steps, wondering what the feeling of a dagger being plunged into his chest was... and then it began to dawn on him. Maybe the idea of even being in a relationship with him was really that... awful. He'd thought since Alicia wanted him that maybe... maybe Lana would too. But Alicia was crazy and Lois... Lois was more independant, the way Lana wanted to be. Even if he told Lana the truth... would this be the eventual result?

And suddenly Clark felt the need to breath more than ever. With Lana having her back to him, suddenly she would feel a sudden gust of wind fly past her as Clark hightailed it out of there at super speed, causing her ponytail to whip around in her face for a moment. By the time she would think to turn around or wonder, Clark would be long gone into the storm that raged outside.
