Awww, these two...
Clark has such a hard time. He's trying to do the right/responsible thing here...but as the situation is complex, he's pulled into two very different directions, and both have their "yes" and "no" to them.
And of course, Lois would not understand the complexity of it all yet. Both because she doesn't know the whole background of Clark but also like, she's five. She's not supposed to comprehend that kin of stuff. Plus, as said, child logic works...a little differently on these things. Ah, why are adults always need to be that complicated, right?
Well yeah. Both want/need each other (in a very platonic way obv.) so much but also, there are...obstacles of multiple kinds in the way.
Uuhh Clark...you realize that Lois will now just go every night saying "I really need you right now because..." and then list a number of reasons, right? (does she know about his hearing abilities yet? Hmm...)
Also, how long is it going to take until Lois gets into troub..I mean does something brave and needs to be sav...ah, assisted by a certain Lost Boy to get out of that?
Enjoyed this as per usual. Always looking forward to these on Fridays now.


Up, up and away - to the next fanfic.
