Fireworks TOC The prompt for this story was: The Art of Fireworks, so since Clark and Lois don't really pay attention to the final fireworks show, I thought I better include that fireworks tie.  I would also like to thank Mrs. Luthor and IolantheAlias for Beta reading this story for me. I made a few changes since Beta, so I apologize for any errors. Also, please let me know if I crossed the sweet innocent line from PG to PG13. It's really hard not to when you give yourself such a challenge. I'll post the Epilogue this weekend. Comments?

MouseRocks: Oh, dear, our little Mouseling is growing up. <<wipes away a tear>> no longer able to ride rides without getting sick. Great chapter! So sweet! I loved that you took this from Clark's perspective the whole time and that he called her firecracker... I'm glad that it worked. Clark wanted his POV shown, so he didn't look SO much like a doormat, which is hard to do when one's soul mate is holding on to one's leash. and that she kept asking him to kiss her... and that they kept coming so close to kissing... and that they kissed! I think I would have gotten hate mail without it. <<squeal>> and that you had this be how Clark discovers (semi-) that he could fly!! Dumbo's feather. It works every time. Please give me the epilogue soon! Please? Gimme, gimme, gimme... I need... I *need*!!  Ken: I couldn't remember if Clark's fall into the quarry was canon or fandon (I've seen it referenced in fanfiction often enough), so I thought I'd give him another first time that was dreamlike enough that he doesn't know for sure what exactly happened.

Clark watched the lithe nymph skip out of sight  taking another bite of her hotdog, leaving a bit of mustard on the edge of her top lip. Oooh! Ooooh! She licked it away with her tongue, and he took off his glasses to wipe away the steam. Almost what I wanted to suggest. But yours is just fine, too “First thing you need to do when you return home is to get one. A good reporter needs to be ready to go where the action is at a moment’s notice.  He’s got to get through college first.

I’ve been building up a briefcase with anything a reporter might need to have at a moment’s notice,” she said. Aww, Lois. “If I get too intense, just let me know; it’s one of my flaws. Let me guess. Her mother? I’m hoping to follow around real journalists, but I’ll probably be nothing more than a gofer: fetching coffee, making copies, sorting mail, taking messages, and that sort of thing.” If she’s lucky, she might end up cracking open an underage prostitution ring? He brushed passed her error that she had flaws. She had never met anyone her age who wanted to be a journalist? Uh-oh. so he concluded she hadn’t graduated high school yet. How old was Firecracker? Uh-oh. When he got out of his chair to pick it up, he scooted his chair an inch further away before sitting back down. Clark! Pete had a girlfriend back home who was sixteen; perfectly legal as long as they didn’t do anything. See? /points to paternal consent loophole/ He sighed in relief. Well, marriage was certainly off the table. Actually… Had he really wanted to get married at eighteen anyway? helps keeping the editors and other assorted creeps at bay. Or, actually…no, it won’t While Spaceship Earth wasn’t exactly what he had hoped, a planetarium type show, it was still an interesting time-travel look at Earth’s history. You, too? “Space. I’d love to be the first journalist to travel into space.” Oooooh! Like on the Messenger shuttle? “Woman reporter tops man in space?” Clark teased, showing her the future headline. /cocks eyebrow/ “What?” she gasped, giving him a sharp look.
“Beats! Beats man into space,” he hastily corrected. Oh. Okay. “I’m perfectly serious. I’m going into space someday, and it’s going to be the story of the century. No, the drive system will be, actually. They were standing at the edge of the lake. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder in perfect timing. “If you throw me in there, I’m bringing you with me.” Firecracker laughed. “Trust me, big boy, you don’t want to see me wet.” Why? “Don’t challenge me, or you’ll know what it’s like to get soaked twice in one day,” she replied.
That warning he decided not to discount. Although, in all fairness to Splash Mountain, that had been where Clark had met Firecracker. So, in a sense, it had been the tunnel of love, too. “There’s no one besides you,” Clark whispered, meaning every word.
“Eeep!” she squealed, her eyes widening probably because he was close enough to kiss her at that very second. Too strong? “Then you better wait until you find a romantic moment and then kiss me until my toes curl.” Or not. Although, there’s stories about Lois getting cramps in her feet after too much ‘kissing’. placing his lips on her forehead, because after all this talk of kissing he needed to reward his mouth. “It was? Oh, and I just ruined it again,” she groaned. “What made it romantic?” ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/smilie/konfus/g070.gif) “And I stopped you. Sorry. Kiss me now.” /shakes head sadly/ “What if I kissed you?” she asked. That would work. “I need to experience life to the fullest, how else will I ever be able to write about it?” ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/midi/boese/a045.gif) Clark tugged her into a gift shop, found the silliest pair of Minnie ears and stuck them on her head. She laughed, and ducked around the other side of the display, pulling out a pair of equally silly Goofy ears, attached to a Mad Hatter’s hat and plopped it down on his head. “Because Goofy would never make Minnie’s toes curl,” Don’t tell Mickey ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/midi/frech/e045.gif) There was a hideous selection of ties, most of which had silhouettes of Mickey Mouse on them. Hideous? What’s going on with Clark?

“Not that tie,” he corrected. “Because it looks like a mistake,” he said, with his hands on his hips.
“It has style,” Firecracker said.
“Not my style,” Clark informed her. He *is* a hick at heart, isn’t he? “Fine! Pick your own ties,” she snapped, pulling it over his head and dumping it back on the display. Yep, now she’s mad. “I just wanted you to have something to remember me by,” she whispered. Hurt. Which is worse than mad. He really put the foot in, didn’t he? She turned around and pinned a black feather on his t-shirt.
“What is this for?”
“So you can fly.” Okay, I didn’t remember that one till the FDK thread  “Make me curl my toes, and I promise you I’ll never forget you.” Firecracker screamed and then ducked. She still hasn’t gotten the idea of the ride, has she? As the water came towards him in a torrential rush, he exhaled, pushing some of the water forward and over the seat in front of him, drenching his hot little Firecracker.  Clark! “Great,” she grumbled. “I warned you that you didn’t want to see me wet,” Okay? Through her pastel lavender t-shirt he could see a hot pink bra. Awwwwwwww “You’re glasses are fogged again,” Firecracker laughed, removing them. “Only this time, I don’t have a dry shirt.” - - - - “Spread your arms and close your eyes,”  Scanning down the front of her, he dried her shirt to barely damp, and no longer see-through. So, now he can breath again? Now, he was caught right under it. He winced as another loud explosion rocketed the air. Oh boy. Firecracker set her hands over his ears, trying to deafen the sound. He gazed down at her big doe eyes staring up at him. Oh boy. With each one Clark sank lower to the ground. Oh boy Oh boy. She *will* never forget him. “It’s just fireworks, Clark. You’ll be okay,” You don’t have to be afraid. Your uncle Nor isn’t coming. Shhh… Shhh… She pulled his head to her, so that one ear pressed against her chest and the other one was covered by her arms surrounding it.  Before long, all he could hear was her soft voice and the beat of her heart with the occasional thunderous boom, which didn’t seem so bad now. He could feel her fingers running through his hair. It felt wonderful. Well, it *that* wouldn’t distract him, nothing would. She shrugged. “My sister used to react the same way whenever our parents fought.” Yep, he’s going to so end up in the nerdy friend box. Clark didn’t know about her but, while his toes weren’t curling, he felt as if they were floating. Umm…Clark?

Well, it was bound to happen eventually... Up above the trees, the air felt fresher, less humid, more smoky from the fireworks, more electrically charged. Erm-hrm. He knew he couldn’t fly; that this was just an illusion of the kiss. Aaamm… She was going to make one hell of a reporter. “I’m…” Aaaaaaargh! Her eyes widened. “The fireworks! They started at nine thirty! I’m supposed to meet Lucy at ten. I’m so late! Oops? And before Clark could ask her name, she melted into the crowd and disappeared.
“Wait!” he called, but she was gone. “Ew,” Lois’s sister said, plugging her nose and her eyes widened. “Lois Lori Lane, have you been smoking? Daddy is so going to kill you!” Michael

It was love at first sight and lying, cheating Lana was draped over him like a bad toupee. and she had sought comfort in Joe’s arms. More like his bed, but whatever. :p Or seduced *him.* And Clark had let her go just as willingly. Smart Clark! and Lana could scream at him until the cows came home… literally. Ha! His folks hadn’t agreed with his choice about telling Lana, Not even the Marquis de Sade would agree with *that* inevitable torture! There was just something about how this girl’s heart beat that had hooked him around the neck like a leash and dragged him along. And here Lana thought only *she* could put him on a leash...oh wait, you meant that figuratively. <shakes head> No. Welcome to your destiny, Clark! he had felt as if he could literally float. Hehe! Get too close, and he could get burned; <points to Man of Steel title> And besides, Lana's the only dangerous thing here. That was what this girl reminded him of – something that required that kind of warning label. <points to Lois Lane Handbook> his little life-altering firecracker. Awwww! Well, if that was the case… Ooooh! Super cheating? Was Firecracker seeing if it was true? Love the little pet names! It had taken weeks of practice to recognize Lana’s heartbeat, Because diseased, corrupt hearts are hard to care about? “Do you have a special diet that you need to follow? Because I, myself, have a hankering for a hotdog.” Would it be wrong to ask Firecracker to marry him at this moment? Um...she's underage, so...yes? He wondered what she was like behind the wheel of a car. Terrifying? “I’ll get the next one,” he insisted, if for no other reason but for them to still be together at suppertime. As Jimmy would say, "Smooth!" If she kept this up, Smallville might never see him again. Lana had refused to go to that section of the park for obvious reasons. <chokes on tea> He sighed in relief. Well, marriage was certainly off the table. He chuckled. Had he really wanted to get married at eighteen anyway? Yes? “Come on, Farm Boy, let me show you the world,” she said. Cute nickname work in. And why do I suddenly want to break out into songs from Aladdin? She elbowed him in the gut. “Well, you can’t; I’ve called dibs.” Erm... Well, that explains her willingness to jump onboard the Messanger Shuttle. Not possible, apparently. “Because I’ve always wanted to float.” Give it a week? That warning he decided not to discount. Hehe! Smart! “Told you, I’d show the world.” Awesome! So, in a sense, it had been the tunnel of love, too. Awwwww! If just holding her in his arms made his body tingle with excitement, what would a kiss do? Possibly bring this to the nfic section? If he never saw his true love again, at least they would have this one perfect day. Love this, since so many of the Disney tales (the older ones) deal with issues of one true loves. The moment was lost, and the ride ended. Booo! She glanced down at their feet, and murmured, “I’ve never really been kissed.” Awwww! That's so sad! And so awesome that he'll be her first one! “Are all the guys in Metropolis idiots?” Yes? “Shall I wait for another romantic moment, or shall we just get it over with now?” Gee, that's romantic, Clark! “There’s no one besides you,” Clark whispered, meaning every word. Awwww! “Then you better wait until you find a romantic moment and then kiss me until my toes curl.” Your wish is his command. “We had. This is later, and I thought it was romantic,” he said. Works for me.  There was just no getting away from the question, was there? Meet Mad Dog Lane. “You might make my toes curl,” he teased with a wink. Hehe! Love that he's the same, amart-alecky guy. “What are you doing?” she asked, her hands on her hips.
“Changing the subject.”  There was a hideous selection of ties, most of which had silhouettes of Mickey Mouse on them. Out of group, she pulled one that looked like it had been splattered by cartoonist paint, and one that looked like a rain of fireworks. She looped the cartoon splotch tie around his neck and proceeded to tie it. Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! <gasps for breath> “No. You don’t need… Please, don’t waste your money,” he said, as she completely ignored him. Have I mentioned? Meet Mad Dog Lane. “I’m waterproof,” Clark replied with a grin. Hehe! “Electricity and water don’t mix,” he replied. Awwww! If he felt like this from a little peck, what would happen when he finally kissed her? He'll be the first male reporter in space? <grin> Firecracker screamed and then ducked. As the water came towards him in a torrential rush, he exhaled, pushing some of the water forward and over the seat in front of him, drenching his hot little Firecracker. Oooh! Naughty Clark! Her brow furrowed. “What?”
“Trust me.” Oooooh! She pulled his head to her, so that one ear pressed against her chest and the other one was covered by her arms surrounding it. His strange reaction to the fireworks didn’t scare her, but instead brought out a nurturing side she had never shown. Awwwwwwwwwww! he felt as if they were floating. Houston, we *have* lift off! Firecracker returned his smile and licked her lips. “Now I’ve been kissed,” she said and her smile broadened into a grin. “No way I’ll forget you now, Clark Kent.” Awwwwwwwwwwwww! Pete chuckled. “Finally! Does this mean I can stop being nice to her?” Ha! True friend! Clark glanced at his best friend. “That was being nice?” LOL! “Lois Lori Lane, have you been smoking? Daddy is so going to kill you!” Ahahahaha! “That mousey girl with the pigtail? Oh, man, she’s so rebound material.” <waits for Clark to punch/mock punch said friend> Clark grinned. Oh, he definitely was going to marry that woman someday. <claps gleefully> Ooooh! This was so much fun! Wonder what the Epilogue holds! Disney - *truly* the most magical place on Earth!

Firecracker laughed. “Trust me, big boy, you don’t want to see me wet.”
Why? Because *she* knows what she looks like wet, and what effect it had at the boys at the Country Club pool. ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/midi/frech/g045.gif) If he found her attractive clothed, her being wet wouldn't help his speech patterns and balance. Kissing his father’s cow on a dare does not count. Actually, it was the horse. That could be awkward with the drop and all. There is a reason the boat hovers at the top of the drop for a moment. She still hasn’t gotten the idea of the ride, has she? Getting Homespun soaking wet? She's there for the thrill not the water. Remember, adrenaline junkie? So, now he can breathe again? Yep. Oh boy Oh boy. She *will* never forget him. Not quite the final impression he wanted to leave her with. You don’t have to be afraid. Your uncle Nor isn’t coming. Shhh… Shhh… Not for at least another 10 years. (Nobody noticed that she calls him "Clark" here before he introduced himself.) Well, it *that* wouldn’t distract him, nothing would. Yep. Still male. Yep, he’s going to so end up in the nerdy friend box. That's what he was afraid of. Well, it was bound to happen eventually... 4-Park FDK? Flying? Or kiss? Did she just figure something out? It's not going to seem quite as real after a good night's sleep. /wonders about them interpreting ‘firecracker’ in an entirely different kind of way/ Possibly. Yep, they’re so going to think something else… They? They who? It's just Pete and Clark. So, will she still end up with Claude? How? When? What? Oh right. ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/smilie/frech/e015.gif)

Deadly Chakram:Thank you for the long FDK! Always fun. More like his bed, but whatever. First his arms... Uh-huh. What percentage of 18 year old boys need to be seduced by a blonde bimbette? Not even the Marquis de Sade would agree with *that* inevitable torture! Telling his folks that he told Lana? Or that he dated Lana? And here Lana thought only *she* could put him on a leash...oh wait, you meant that figuratively. That's where the "like a leash" comes in. <shakes head> No. Welcome to your destiny, Clark! It's in the range of possibility. <points to Man of Steel title> And besides, Lana's the only dangerous thing here. Um... Man of Steel? Oh, you mean he can't get hurt. This conversation with his dad took place when he was much younger and didn't know he was a MoS. Lana's only dangerous to Joe. Lois, otoh, is a Firecracker. Hey! The rules she set were "All's fair". Love the little pet names! Well, since she wouldn't tell him her real name. Because diseased, corrupt hearts are hard to care about? Because it didn't beat in time to his? Um...she's underage, so...yes? He thinks she's 18 at this point, which is why I let him in on the secret sooner, rather than later. Exhilarating? As Jimmy would say, "Smooth!" "As your partner, best friend, and husband?" Yep. She's changing her name to Jimmy? I'm trying to explain how at 25 she's one of the top investigative reporters Perry has met. If she starts at the DP at 16, by the time she graduates Met U, she'll already be a few months away from her first Kerth. He sighed in relief. Well, marriage was certainly off the table. He chuckled. Had he really wanted to get married at eighteen anyway?
Yes? Well, if he was going to stick to his wait until marriage vow... Yes. Cute nickname work in. And why do I suddenly want to break out into songs from Aladdin? Well, that explains her willingness to jump onboard the Messenger Shuttle. <<cough>> Prometheus. Messenger is the one that exploded. Or less. Possibly bring this to the nfic section? She's 16, so no. Love this, since so many of the Disney tales (the older ones) deal with issues of one true loves. I'm a sucker for a good Disney love story. Awwww! That's so sad! And so awesome that he'll be her first one! And what will all the men who come after seem in comparison? Gee, that's romantic, Clark! Still teenage boy. Your wish is his command. If you insist, Lois. Worked for Clark, too. Lois is just nervous rambling. Precisely. Have I mentioned? Meet Mad Dog Lane. <<Points above>> He'll be the first male reporter in space? <grin> Again, she said "All's fair". Houston, we *have* lift off! Too bad he's too distracted to notice. <waits for Clark to punch/mock punch said friend> He's okay if other guys aren't attracted to his soul mate. <claps gleefully>
Ooooh! This was so much fun! Wonder what the Epilogue holds!
Disney - *truly* the most magical place on Earth! <<blushing>> Thanks.

Lucky, lucky me! A 4-Part FDK?! Glad you didn’t think it was excessive. Because she knows he'll never call for a blood test? Uh-huh. He's still currently dusting off the footprints on his back. So, it's okay that he's one step behind Lois, then? /nods/ <<cough>> Prometheus. Messenger blew up. /cough/ Prometheus was the space station. The second shuttle didn’t have a name, I think. Well, it wasn’t mentioned. Because *she* knows what she looks like wet, and what effect it had at the boys at the Country Club pool. Aaaahhh… Yes, wet women in tight bathing suits have frequently been used for visual support in movies.

If he found her attractive clothed, her being wet wouldn't help his speech patterns and balance. Yes, and a helplessly bobbing around Clark-balloon talking gibberish and leaving a saliva trail would be very embarrassing for her. Actually, it was the horse. Michael

Deadly Chakram:Thank you for the long FDK! Always fun. Any time! Sorry for the little bit of snarkiness to some of it. There are times where I am funnier within my own head than out in the open. Uh-huh. What percentage of 18 year old boys need to be seduced by a blonde bimbette? Well, Clark for one. My husband for another. Yes, I married a "good" guy, who turned down a girl or two's advances. Telling his folks that he told Lana? Or that he dated Lana? Dating Lana, definitely. That's where the "like a leash" comes in. Something tells me Lana wouldn't do "concubine" very well... Because it didn't beat in time to his? Because she doesn't *have* a heart? I'm trying to explain how at 25 she's one of the top investigative reporters Perry has met. If she starts at the DP at 16, by the time she graduates Met U, she'll already be a few months away from her first Kerth. True. But doesn't Perry say in Season 2 that Lois has been with them five years? I can't remember the episode though. Oh well, minor detail! I like your take! Well, if he was going to stick to his wait until marriage vow... Yes. <<cough>> Prometheus. Messenger is the one that exploded. Prometheus was the space station, no? I don't think the second shuttle had a name. I'm a sucker for a good Disney love story. <high five> Me too. He's okay if other guys aren't attracted to his soul mate. True. Because other guys who are attracted to her are all scumbags.

Michael: I have no idea what you're talking about. I was always led to believe that length was very much appreciated on the fanfic boards. <<cough>> FDK length, of course. actually, is he a doormat/elevator combo? Currently a doormate/esculator combo. Yeah. He’s a bit sloooow. I’m not sure Forrest Gump wouldn’t have knocked the lights out of Lex in the same situation. Didn't Forrest defend Jenny's honor? I thought his mother fed them corn and stuff? Bugs and worms too. Ah, okay. *Spaceship* Earth. So, the really obvious one. (I think, I forgot they called it the Spaceship Earth.) Sorry, not all of my subtlety is obvious. /nods/ She has to get acclimated in the first week. Either that, or she gets kidnapped by the merchants on her first donut trip and it takes her two weeks to crack the thing wide open. Didn't that happen in a fic? I want to say Erin Klinger's The Long Road Home but I could be wrong. /cough/ Prometheus was the space station. The second shuttle didn’t have a name, I think. Well, it wasn’t mentioned. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.loisandclarkarchive.com/FirstSeason/Pilot/LCPilot2043.jpg) <- This picture that didn't show up is from the Loisandclarkarchive of the Prometheus shuttle with the word "Prometheus" written down the side. Aaaahhh… Yes, wet women in tight bathing suits have frequently been used for visual support in movies. Um... isn't that because it works? Yes, and a helplessly bobbing around Clark-balloon talking gibberish and leaving a saliva trail would be very embarrassing for her. A flaw! He's human. Teenage Clarks make for the most adorable fun! Don't they? Young, handsome, and not in control of themselves. Lots of fun. I hear they even made a whole series (or two) about him. Are you talking literal or figurative? Literal blood in the form of living, viral young men from out of town, not bags of blood. Otherwise, poor Cat would be left to dating her cousins. Always have an isodrink at hand during endurance sports. Recommended. Hmm… I think that’s a trick question. ‘hurting her feelings’? The age old question. What will a man sacrifice of himself to please a woman? Actually, Rachel returned to the hotel to look for Clark, which is why Clark and Pete were able to have such a free conversation about women, and what in the world to do about them.

Deadly Chakram: You're not funny? Oh, dear. I wasn't supposed to laugh? ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/midi/konfus/a050.gif) I'll have to work on that. Well, Clark for one. My husband for another. Yes, I married a "good" guy, who turned down a girl or two's advances. But you got him in the end, didn't you? Something tells me Lana wouldn't do "concubine" very well... Michael suggested she'd make a good one for Nor. Because she doesn't *have* a heart? True. But doesn't Perry say in Season 2 that Lois has been with them five years? I can't remember the episode though. Oh well, minor detail! I like your take! I don't remember that quote. Prometheus was the space station, no? I don't think the second shuttle had a name. Yes, but strangely the shuttle to the Prometheus station had the name "Prometheus" written down the side of it. (See picture that didn't show up in Michael's FDK above). Probably why you, me, and Mouse love Clark so much. He's our modern day prince charming. True. Because other guys who are attracted to her are all scumbags. Isn't that a rule? <<double checks>> Yes, #25... Rule # 25 - Actually, don't trust anyone attracted to Lois. For some reason, she’s a slime-magnet.
