Aha. Nice lovebird twist here. Why do I have the strong feeling that's a red herring to some darker purpose? Must be reading too many Tank fics lately.
As Bethy observed, it's a little sad to see that both sets of parents consist of domineering husbands and submissive wives. I was also a little jerked out of the story by Clark squatting down to talk to Jamie's sister on her level. You do that for pre-teens, yes. But a fifteen-year-old? Wouldn't she be more likely to be annoyed at what she percieved to be condenscension? (I think I spelled that wrong. :rolleyes: ) The girl's response also seemed younger than fifteen to me.
Be that as it may, it's fun to read of Lois and Clark actually doing some investigative reporting for a change. But if it turns out that J&J did run away to elope or what have you, I have little sympathy for them: they must have known how their mothers felt about them. Why didn't they care enough to let them know they were all right?

Let us know soon, okay?
