Wow!! Excellent part!!  He swivelled sharply, revealing wide, panicky eyes. “No,” he murmured. “No, you won’t lose me. Ever.” He bowed his head and shook it slowly from side to side. “God, Lois,” he said, “I’m so stupid. I keep pushing you away, when all I want is to...“
He fell silent, shaking his head again.
Wanted to what? Those were such tantalising words, especially when she let herself remember his kisses on her shoulder, or his husky voice as he’d murmured her name. Yes, she’d told herself that the kisses didn’t mean anything, and that her attraction to him didn’t mean anything either, but still. Hope sprang. She couldn’t suppress it.
“What, Clark?” she asked, rising from her seat and walking towards him. “What do you want?” On one hand... Just spill it already, lunkhead!! On the other hand... this way, the story will end rather soon... Well, why bother with guessing, when there's nagging? POST SOON, YVONNE!!  See ya, AnnaBtG.
What we've got here is failure to communicate...

Wow Yvonne! This is perfect!  Francine doesn't beat about the bush, does she? Oh boy, he was more obtuse than she'd ever imagined a person could be! Lois hit the mark! Exactly, Clark! " I keep pushing you away, when all I want is to.." Okay Clark! This is really, really NOT the time to be an idiot, don't say something stupid, please! And this is NOT the time to hear something from outside, okay? You can help with that earthquake in India in five minutes, okay? But naturally this is a mugging, or a fire, so you have to go now, isn't it? Clark, Clark are you hearing me? Clark, where are you going? What's hap...  Don't worry Lois, he's going to come back (sooner or later) Simona

Hi, Great part.

Don't like Luthor, unfinished, untitled and crossover story, and people that promises and don't deliver. I'm getting choosy with age.

An interesting place to stop.
Lois is getting desparate and Clark is getting thicker by the minute. Yep, things are going just swimmingly.

Before I comment on the fic, I had to comment on the previous post. a non-threatening older man... from Minnesota *tries to picture Tank, originator of the TE, as "non-threatening"* *tries again* And they are so good! George walks the tightrope of confidentiality and conflict-of-patients'-interests with finesse and aplomb! Clark is our own lovable lunkhead. And Lois is slowly but surely finding herself again.  And then, Clark started to say something that could be Very Good -- or Very Bad. And you STOPPED THERE!!!!! *rends hair* GET BACK HERE! . . . and a couple  s too!
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
