Oh wow! This was short but intense, and if you're ever inclined to continue it, I certainly wouldn't mind reading more.
I've read fics were Clark gives up his secret after getting married and raising children to at least near-adulthood, and at least one where somebody backstabs him in the early days, but never this combination of choosing to act when Lois doesn't even know. It puts an interesting spin on everything. Are they dating yet? What is she thinking?
I totally get if you're not up for stretching this any further, but thank you for sharing it!
