Oh my stars and garters! Time Jump!
The night is still warm as I walk Lois home. She looks stunning in her dark-blue dress with the low heels and the shawl slipping from her shoulders as she carries the first award of her life. It shouldn’t be me by her side in her parent’s stead. But Ellen wouldn’t go because Sam insisted that he’d be there, only he got held up by his work.
At first I thought; Lois is in her 20's and Clark is now in his prime. They are coming back from the Kerth awards.
I couldn’t be prouder of her, not only because she won a prize for the best article in a school paper, but also because she takes her parent’s absence like a champ. But no matter how much she insists that she doesn’t care whether or not her parents were there with her, I know it’s eating away at her. And what I wouldn’t give to comfort her, to offer her more than a safe return home.
Nope. She's still a teen-ager, but wise beyond her years. He has told her about Superman and his difficult relationship with Lana. Lois is right by the way, he is not being fair to either one of them by not sharing his secret with Lana
and not moving the relationship further. As he said, perhaps there could be a third woman in his life. He has a number of serious decisions to make.
Oh, this fic is great, but the suspense is killing me.
How can you possibly get them together will such a large age gap keeping them apart?
