Her head burrowed into the space between his neck and shoulder, and her arm tightened around him. The knowledge that she felt safe with him warmed him.
Awww!!!
The look of concern on his mother’s face as she withdrew was accompanied by a wink, which made him roll his eyes. His mom, ever the romantic.
LOL!!
“We?” She raised her eyebrows challengingly at him, for all the world as if he were a rival reporter trying to muscle in on her patch.
LOL!!
“We,” he emphasised firmly. “Lois, you need me. First, you’re supposed to be dead - I guess you don’t want Luthor to realise that you’re alive after all before you’re ready? Second, wouldn’t you find it useful to work with someone who can see through walls or anything else you care to mention, hear anything from a long way away, and who can move faster than the speed of light?”
Nice one!!
/me gives Clark a few of her highly coveted bonus points! And in that moment it felt as if they were back on the beach the previous afternoon. Clark felt his breath catch as he looked at her, saw the way her eyes shone as she watched him, felt her sway towards him...
Ooh!!!
With a groan, he pushed her gently away. “Lois, we can’t do this.”
Eyes dazed, she stared at him. “Why not?”
He closed his eyes briefly, part of him thinking that he had to be crazy to deny himself this. It was just a kiss, after all! “Because you’re married.”
If Kae's still wondering about the definition of a 'dolt', this would be it!!
“We?” his mother questioned, a sly smile creeping across her face. “As in you and Lois?”
“And you’re in love with her,” his mother added, in the kind of matter-of-fact tone which, if he’d thought about it for just one second, he’d have remembered was designed to trip him up.
Okay, I'm getting nervous here, everyone's told me to expect something worse than evil.
Luthor's not going to show up at the farm is he?
He rounded the corner then, coming within sight of the farmhouse, still a quarter mile away - and stared. Several cars were parked outside, including three state police vehicles, and a helicopter stood in the middle of his dad’s pasture.
Oh dear lord!! *&#@ Not good!
Finally, Lex Luthor walked in.
I HATE being right!!!!!
How the heck did he find her anyway?! I know he's got reach, but... tell me that at least he doesn't know about Clark!!
His blood chilled. Luthor would have her locked up in a secure facility somewhere. And then, in a few days’ time, probably - he wouldn’t be so foolish as to do it too soon - there would be another staged suicide attempt. And this time it would be fatal.
And then Lois spoke, her voice cool and distant. “Stay away from me, Clark. I’m going with my husband.”
As the needle went into her arm, Lois turned and met Clark’s gaze again. “I said, leave me, Clark. I don’t need you.”
Ouch!!!
And as for Wendy... You *do* have an idea who you're dealing with, so get back here now!!!!!
