TOC,
So okay, if Lois still wants this lunkhead... maybe you can shape him up so that he is worthy of her, Anonpip!
Okay, I know I should not care this much, but your feedback really made my day. It had previously felt like there was nothing I could do to make you really like my Clark, so having you think it's possible that Lois forgiving Clark and getting together with him wouldn't be a huge mistake on Lois' part feels like a great accomplishment.
Now as long as I don't go wrecking things again...
Sheila,
Your feedback always makes me smile as you seem to see the characters just as I imagine them as I write them.
I think that Lois is finally ready to move on and start the healing process--with Clark.
I hope so, although please don't be too disappointed if it doesn't all get resolved in the next chapter. It's hard for me to determine just how much it would take for Lois to trust Clark again, but I'm thinking she's probably not there yet. But, at least she's open to the idea now.
She loves him, too, and that's why his little stunt hurt so much.
You know, I see this as pretty clear, but I so like the way you put it, I may have to steal it. You may see this appear in an upcoming chapter, although I doubt Lois would word it as "his little stunt"!
