I have no idea how I got the idea to this fic, but I thought it was quite cute, so...
Well, I hope you enjoy.
Pros and Cons
Lois moaned as she looked up from the many stacks of notes before her. She stretched, trying to ease her aching back. She had been going through the notes for hours together with Clark; and they still had nothing to go on! It was highly frustrating, especially for her: Mad Dog Lane. And only to make things worse, Clark had suddenly announced that he was hungry and had burst out of his apartment to buy takeout before she had the chance to complain.
Lois cast the window a short glance and sighed heavily. The weather was grey and gloomy: Heavy clouds loomed outside and raindrops were trickling down the window. Where would Clark go in this weather? Why did he even want to go outside in this weather?
Lois frowned. She needed a break, a short break when she thought of something else than the case. Her poor mind felt like macaroni by now.
After some rummaging, she managed to find a blank sheet of paper and placed it before her. Gripping her pencil she furiously began scribbling, only pausing for a few seconds at the time.
She paused, looking over the short list she had made.
Pro and Cons:
Cons:
He runs off all the time
He’s my best friend and if it doesn’t work out, our friendship might never be the same again.
It might hurt
Pros:
Lois bit her lip. What was so good with Clark? Millions of things passed through her mind: How he looked when he smiled, how he always managed to give her coffee when she needed it. …How he always managed to make her coffee exactly the way she wanted it… How he- Oh how would she be able to write all that down? It would take her ages. She needed to sum it up, somehow…
She pondered for a while before writing one simple word under Pros.
Clark.
There. She went through her list once again before writing one last line at the bottom.
Pro wins.
