Love always

Revealing himself

Clark stood on the rooftop listening to city below, he would help as many as he could before the sun would come up before he would return to his training at the fortress. But he was distracted, and he finally decided maybe he should go and speak to her.

Katherine sat in the livingroom, Shelby sat near her feet, his head lifted up as he heard a noise and headed for the door as it opened. Katherine turned to see who had come in, her eyes locked with his, she stood and ran to him. He caught her in his arms and held her tight, he could feel her crying against him.
"Hey don't cry I'm here." He said to her. Katherine looked up at him and touched his face, it was as if she wasnt sure he was even real.
"Chloe said you disappeared after the monster did."
"I did. Jimmy died Kat and because I had faith in Davis it cost him his life. I searched everywhere when you and Lois disappeared. I didnt stick around with Chloe to be the friend she needed so I disappeared. Started my training kept the city safe. Until the night you reappeared with Lois. I wasnt sure what to do. I wasn't sure what to say."
"Chloe told me you were missing."
"Could be worse I told her Clark Kent was dead at least she didn't tell you that. I wish I had come to you that night."
"You're here now. I dont know what happened. It's all a blank."
"We will find out together."
"You promise?"
"Yes, I cant completely stay away. I will return to my job at the Planet and maybe you could go see Chloe."
"And tell her what?"
"Actually I'll talk to her." Clark said to her. Katherine nodded she wasnt sure what feelings she should have, she was just so confused but he was with her and at the moment that was all that mattered.
Clark walked into Watchtower and up to Chloe.
"Decided to forgo the training "
"Kat knows I am around. I don't want to lie to her. She was so broken. What did you do to help her Chloe or were you more concerned about Lois?"
"Kat is my friend too Clark I was worried about her, but she was upset and walked away from me, I didnt dare follow her I've seen her out of control. So I stayed with Lois I knew Kat would come to me when she was ready. But I never expected Kal-El to decide to become Clark Kent again."
"I won't forgo my training but I can't be away from her. Katherine means way to much to me for me to keep hidden. I saw how she looked when she thought I was gone forever. I cant do that to her."
"Good because Tess is curious as to where Kat and Lois disappeared to those three weeks ago."
"Great."
"So back to work?"
"Yup and Chloe you need to talk to Kat she thinks you abandoned her. You stuck with Lois but never came to her. Kat was at the house for a day and a half before I finally decided to tell her I was back."
"I'll talk to her."
"Thank you. Alright I am going back to her and then back to work tomorrow which will be a nice surprise to Lois tomorrow."
"It will make her happy. Your a good friend to her." Chloe said.
"I'm sorry I wasnt here for you."
"I know. We all took it hard and I guess I took it out on you"
"You've been my friend for a long time and I guess I don't want to lose that friendship." Clark said to her. Chloe nodded and watched as Clark turned and left the building.
