Chapter Nineteen
He's Just a Stupid Idiot
Season 1, Episode 4
"He's just a stupid idiot that I call my brother."
====================================

Jade was sat in her room listen to her grandfather shouting at Lois as her mother shouted back. The trio had just got back from the boys football game. They had won but Jade couldn't help but wonder at what cost. They grandfather now knew her and Jordan had powers and to say he wasn't happy about it would be an understatement. Having had enough of it, Jade walked downstairs as her father walked into the living room where Lois and General Lane were.
"You're right. It's enough. We appreciate your concern, we really do. But we know what we're doing." Clark tells Sam.
" Do you? There's an armoured nut job on the loose and wants you dead. And your priorities seem to be..." Sam starts.
"Couching my sons and being here for my daughter. Yes." Clark replies. "And their are nut jobs who want to kill me all the time."
"You need to understand. The military is terrified of you. They note any change in routine. I'm the ones that keep them in check." Sam states.
"Yes and we are grateful for that." Lois says.
"Moving out of Metropolis raised a red flag." Sam informs the pair. "Nobody's seen you in the skies. Crime groups like Inter-gang are already planning an uptake in activity. The higher ups wants to transfer high risk inmates out of Metropolis pentitary. Why? Because if Superman's not around, the site is more vulnerable to to attacks."
"So what? Is he supposed to babysit a prison?" Lois asks.
"Show good faith. Escort the transfer. They're moving Thaddeus Killgrave." Sam tells Clark. "Psycho genius who got radicalise off hating you."
"If anything goes wrong I will be there. But I am not throwing away time with my family for a show of good faith." Clark tells Sam.
"So your going against my advice?" Sam asks.
"I don't work for you, Sam." Clark replies.
"Fine." Sam says, turning to Lois. "New day in the Kent house. Let me get my bag from the car. Stick around this weekend. Maybe it will be easier if I pitch in."
Sam then leaves the living room causing Jade to hide round the wall. Once he was out the front door Jade walks into the living room.
"What's this about an armoured nut job trying to kill you?" Jade asks, causing her parents to turn to her. "I heard the whole thing. Heard it all from my bedroom and came down here when dad joined the conversation."
"Jade-" Clark says.
"Just be honest for once in your life, dad. What's going on?" Jade asks.
Lois and Clark look at each other before looking back at Jade.

Amelia was sat at the counter of the dinner. Jonathan on one side of her and Sarah on the other while Tag sat next to Jonathan. Jordan then comes in and everyone starts cheering.
"He doesn't even like football." Jonathan says.
"So what? He evolved." Sarah says. "It happens."
"I used to get game balls. Before my stupid million-to-one exploding bonfire injury." Tag says.
"Did the doctor give you like a timeline for when your getting that off, or-" Amelia asks.
"Maybe in times for playoffs." Tag says. "But we won't make play-offs if our wide out can't catch the ball."
"What did you say?" Wellnitx says, before coming over.
"Relax, Wellnitx." Tag tells him.
"Your broke ass is busting on me." Wellnitx says. "Waitress, might want to have this guy pay first, unless he's putting those buffalo wongs in lawaway."
"Wellnitx, you need to chill out." Amelia says.
"Mind your own business, Slut." Tag tells her.
"What did you just call me?" Amelia asks.
"First Grayson, then Wesley and now Jonathan. Is your goal to sleep with every single person on the football team before you leave school?" Wellnitx asks.
"Back off, Wellnitx." Sarah tells him.
Tag then gets up and stand face to face with Wellnitx.
"Hey, guys,guys, guys. Hey. Hey." Jonathan says standing between the two.
"Come on, man. What are you doing. It's not worth it." Sean tells Wellnitx.
WellNitx scoffs before turning around and walking away. Amelia sees Jonathan walk outside and she follows him.
"Jon, hey. Listen. I'm sorry about what Wellnitx said." Amelia says, walking over to him as he turns to look at her. "I promise you. My goal is not to sleep with-"
"I know." Jonathan says, placing his hands on the upper parts of her arms. "I know that. It's okay. I wanted to punch his lights out when he called you that."
Amelia laughs as Jonathan leanes down, placing a kiss on her forehead.
"How long until Eliza comes?" Amelia asks.
"A week." Jonathan answers.
"Can't you just break up with her now so we can offically be together?" Amelia asks.
"Lia, this is really something I should do in person." Jonathan tells her.
"Do you still like her?" Amelia asks.
"Lia-" Jonathan sighs.
"Tell me the truth. Do you still like her?" Amelia asks.
"Yes. I do. But not as much as I like you. I want to be with you." Jonathan tries to reassure her.
"Okay, well. Call me when things are over with you and Eliza." Amelia says, stepping back, causing Jonathan's arms to fall to his side.
"Amelia-" Jonathan tries.
Amelia ignores him and walks back into the dinner causing Jonathan to groan and place his hands on his head as he leans against the wall.

Jade was walking through school, when her and Amelia accidently bumped into each other.
"Hey, Amelia." Jade says.
"Oh, hi, Jade." Amelia says, something clearly on her mind.
"What's up?" Jade asks.
"It's nothing." Amelia says.
"Hey, you can tell me. We're friends, right?" Jade asks.
"yeah, of course." Amelia says.
"Then what's going on?" Jade asks.
"I feel like your brother doesn't really want to be with me." Amelia admits.
"What?" Jade asks.
"He admitted to me the other night that he still liked Eliza and he won't break up with her to be with me." Amelia says.
"That doofus." Jade says. "Listen, Amelia. He really does want to be with you. He talks about you none stop. It's kind of annoying."
"Really?" Amelia asks.
"He's just a stupid idiot that I call me brother." Jade says, causing Amelia to lightly laugh. "But yes, really. He wants to be with you, Amelia. He just, wants to do the right thing and break up with Eliza in person."
"Thanks, Jade. That's really helped." Amelia says, causing Jade to smile.
"Of course." Jade says, before the bell goes.
"Hey, do you want to sit with me and Sarah at lunch?" Amelia asks.
"I would love to." Jade says.
"Perfect. See you then." Amelia says, before walking away.
Jade couldn't help but smile as she turned and walked to class. She was finally finding her place in Smallville.
