This was a very sweet fic.
I like how Clark allowed Lois room to grow instead of just telling her how she should be. The only reason that Lois decided to give the holidays a chance was because she wanted to. She was the one who invited friends over for Christmas Eve. She was the one who bought enough food for a feast, even though she would be alone.
(She was the one who spied the mistletoe and decided to give kissing a try. I noticed that she never even mentioned the mistletoe. Of course, I also noticed that she had a few glasses of holiday cheer as well. I think she really wanted to kiss him, but having the inhibitions numbed paved the way.)
She wanted to get past her childhood wounds and that's why she did.
Clark also takes a solid lead, as well. He's the one who "asked" Superman to fetch Lois for him. He's the one who came up with the idea for Lois' Christmas gift.
I enjoyed this one a lot.
