After way too long, Kon finally ended the whole business of running away. It had taken Clark searching him out and finding him, but... but they'd somehow managed a long, good talk, and?

And he'd gone back to Smallville. And it felt more like 'going home' than he'd expected it to.

So he's happy. That doesn't mean he's disappointed when he finds himself in Milliways instead of his room, but, he's happy.

"That Wally...is my friend?" She squeaks. She cannot tell Kon. She already knows he'll blab to Bart in an instant.

Hey, that was a different situation. He wouldn't blab here. "That he did something. What'd he do?"

"Well it wasn't him so much as...both of us being to blame for what may or may not have happened."

"And what was that?" Kon's tone communicates clearly: 'teeeell meeee.'

"Huh? What was what? What are we talking about?"

Really bad attempt at a subject change. Geeze Vi.

"What are you, Alzheimers Girl now?"

"Um he...kissed me..."

Kon stares.

"Don't look at me like that..."

"You better have kissed him back."

"I did...but you have to swear not to tell anyone. Swear Kon. To never tell."

"Why?" Kon looks confused. "I promise."

"Because you told Bart..." She looks away.

"Because he needed to know that. He -doesn't- need to know this." Because that would be a case of unnecessary hurt. Regardless of whether or not he's moved on, that doesn't mean Vi shouldn't.

"Good. Because it will never happen again. We can't be together. We know that."

"...that's crazy." Kon says. "Why -not-?"

"Because of Bart and because of Turtle and because we don't want to hurt them! Bart hates Wally...and I don't blame him because of how Wally acts in the future but..."

She sighs. "I don't want to hurt people anymore."

"There's always going to be someone hurt by something. They'll get over it. But will you guys?" Kon frowns.

"I thought you wouldn't want Bart hurt anymore...I don't know what to do Kon! I want to be with him but Turtle is one of my best friends. So is Bart...I just can't hurt them!"

"Bart doesn't need to know. He's your friend now. You don't need his permission to go off and date anyone else. And as for Turtle..." Kon thinks this over. "Have you ever thought about just -telling- her you like him? That you don't know what to do about it."

"I can't do that! She'd be so hurt...we're friends Kon and I know she likes him. I encouraged her to like him so I wouldn't have to anymore!"

"It's not like you're telling her you're trying to take him from her. Just that you like him." Kon stares at her. "Do you know how hard it was to tell Cassie that I liked someone else? But it -had- to be done. Before she heard it somewhere else."

"I can't! I'm not trying to take him away from her. It just happened. And we promised one another it wouldn't happen again. So it's not an issue."

"Yeah, right." Kon stares at her in disbelief. "The more you try to bury this, the more it'll come out, because you're not dealing with it. So it will happen again."

"Then what do we do, Kon? Huh? What is your genius solution?"
