WHAT: Vacation time!
WHEN: Backdated a week or so.
WHERE: PARIS!
RATING: PG for now.
A promise was a promise and Clark Kent was definitely not the type of person who went around breaking promises on a regular basis, especially when it came to the people that he cared about. Caroline Forbes. Recently turned vampire, who also recently found herself walking a path that had resulted in a lot of bad. It was with a lot of hard work and effort that Caroline stepped back onto a decent path, one that Clark hoped she'd stay on. He wanted to be there for her. He wanted to make sure that she had every reason to veer away from the darkness that she had surrounded herself in before, both for the sake of herself and all those people that she had the potential to harm in the process.
Furthermore, for himself, because if Caroline strayed far without any chance of turning back again, Clark knew he'd have to take a course of action that he'd hate himself for the rest of his life for seeing through. Others would as well. Caroline's friends. Those people who cared for her and didn't want to see her get hurt as much as and probably more than Clark did himself. They knew her from home. They had known her longer. They didn't want to lose her. Though, if Clark had anything to say about it, they wouldn't. Which was why Paris had felt like a good idea. A chance to get away from all of the bad memories that Caroline probably had stuffed away in her head after her slip in Lawrence. Clark had taken her to an entirely different place, hoping that the freedom of Paris would grant her the opportunity to relax and ease away from all of the bad that she'd endured over the past few months.
Now he could only hope that it was working.
One hand buried into the pocket of his jeans (the other was occupied with carrying whatever it was that Caroline had decided to bring along), Clark walked alongside Caroline quietly, surveying their surroundings for the first time since they had arrived. The view had been beautiful from the sky, but on foot everything was different. The streets were busy, the buildings were tall and wonderful, and there was so much going on by way of differences in their surroundings in comparison to everything back home that Clark really couldn't help but take a few moments to revel in it.
He really need to travel more.
"So what do you think?" Clark asked, looking to Caroline curiously.
