Aaaargh!! I can't believe you both! You can't leave us like that!
I liked this bit.
"I needed my friend," she confessed, giving a helpless shrug.
Clark looked blank for a moment. Then his eyes widened. "Me?"
"Of course you, lunkhead!" she exclaimed.
I knew he was a lunkhead!
I loved this part, though I just wanted to take them by the scruff of the neck and shake them! If they actully talked and listened to each other they would get on so much better! (But it would leave us less playground for fic!
) Lois summed it up nicely...
“Clark, you’ve got it all wrong -”
I loved Clark in this part, he was ... being Clark. And he didn't let Lois leave when she decided that she had bothered him enough for one night!
When I saw this paragraph, I think I stopped being coherent
He pulled his hand out of hers and looked down. “Lois, you can ask me to be your friend. You can ask me to listen to you about your relationship with... Luthor. You can even ask me to try and be fair about him, although I’m not sure I can promise you that.” He turned to her again, and his expression left her in no doubt that he wasn’t joking. “But don’t play with my feelings. Don’t make me long for something you can’t give. Don’t make me hope when you know it’s hopeless.”
The whole paragraph is wonderful, it just seems to sum Clark up, but the last two lines were definately tugging on the heartstrings. They were beautiful.
This was a fantastic line -
His jaw dropped. All knowledge of the English language left his brain.
It had me smiling amongst the tears!
But you both devastated me at the end!
“I think you’d better leave, Lois,” he said abruptly, harshly, without turning to look at her.
They were so close to actually getting somewhere and then this happens!
Part 3 had better come quick!
