**********
Don’t ever tell.
Clark, like most kids, grew up with a number of rules.
Don’t ever tell.
Clean your room. Do your chores. Mind your manners. Listen to your parents.
Don’t ever tell.
But above and beyond all others, there was one rule Clark was to obey at all costs.
Don’t ever tell.
When he got older sometimes his friends, Lex and Lana, Pete and Chloe, had gotten mad at him for not trusting them.
Don’t ever tell.
And he did feel guilty, but mostly confused.
Don’t ever tell.
For Clark, it had never been about trust.
Don’t ever tell.
