Meet the Parents: Conner and Cass, on the road to Smallville

Mar 23, 2007 19:37

After the pre-arranged phone call kicking off the next phase in the plan, Conner hurried outside, stepping into his tennis shoes in mid-leap from the porch (thank you, tactile-telekinesis).

"Uncle Jon!" he called out, "We're on."

"On what?"

The tone indicates where Clark Kent gets his sense of humor.

"We have to pick up the girls. Aunt Martha told you about today, right?"

There's a glint in his eyes. "Only once. You have told me..." He counts. "About twice an hour on average for the last week." Pa is getting his tools together, however.

Conner let out a good-naturedly frustrated groan, scrubbing at his scalp with his fingertips. "I'm sorry, Uncle Jon. I mean, you know, if I'm babbling. I'm just, well...kind of psyched about this, is all. Are we...I should be in the truck now, shouldn't I?"

And they're off for a drive...

The nearest S-Mart Hardware is on this route about 40 miles from the Kent home. They're supposed to meet everyone at the 30 mile mark. They pass it. Then they pass the turn off to actually get to S-Mart. Then another 5 miles before...

"You sure your lady friend knows where she's at?"

"Not...really," he said, confused. "I could always hit the air, see if I can see where they're at."

"How about the cell phone instead, son?"

boy_of_steel March 31 2007, 23:58:40 UTC

"Oh!" he said, not having even considered that.

Conner felt around in his pocket for the cell, flipping it open, and hitting the speed dial for Cassie's number.

So after much searching and driving...

An older brunette gets out of the car and is the first to approach the older man and teenage superhero.

"You must be Connor and Jonathan. Hi, I'm Helena." She sticks out a hand. "Cassie's mom."

Johnathan wipes his hand on a rag. Would do to have sweat and grease on a lady's hand.

"Nice to meet you finally. Connor's been really wanting to see his friends out here - and your daughter 'specially."

Bette, in her cutoffs, has been laying on the roof. Might as well get some sun while she's out here, huh? She's looking very California trying not to be California in her shorts and sunglasses. As they pull up, she sits up some, glancing over her sunglasses before dropping off of the roof.

Bart slides out of the vehicle, extending a hand to Mr. Kent.

"Hello - sir - it - is - nice - to - meet - you."

He may be overacting a little.
