Late as usual. I know. Mea culpa.
But it's so good. So many crumbs here. I really love this bit:
Clark looked at his hand and traced the path her hand had taken along his arm, shivering. What did he want to do? Oh, he knew the answer to that. He wanted her to make him feel like a human being, not an alien. He wanted to feel that electricity between them burn with intense passion. But was it what she wanted? He watched her dejected form try to clean the pan.
It starts off so sexy and then it just breaks my heart. I like this relationship between them. It's very sweet and understandable given everything that has happened.
