Lurking in the shadows of her consciousness was the knowledge that she would have to leave him to finalise their preparations. She didn't need to think about it yet. There was still time.
Too much time.
Lois checked her watch. One hour had passed.
One hour.
It felt as if that hour had been plucked from reality and transported to an ethereal realm with neither beginning nor hope of an end.
Lois ran her fingers through his hair again. "I'm here," she said. She closed her eyes and rested her cheek against his head.
Clark jerked suddenly. "S...someone ... s'coming."
Thanks!
Corrina.
