I'm with BJ - do it!
I am concerned for Clark and Lois in this story...on the one hand, Lois hasn't suffered most of the hurts that defined her canon trouble with relationships. On the other hand, they both are a decade younger than canon. So I'm a little nervous about where this could be going and how it's going to get there. I personally think Clark should use Lois's courage in going to Professor Matthews as inspiration for his own courage in telling her the truth!
I am very much enjoying this story!
