Feedback: Better than chocolate! I welcome comments and criticism of all kinds.
Disclaimer: The characters aren’t mine; the words are. Please don’t take legal action, as lowly copy editors aren’t worth suing, anyway.
A/N: Just for reference, this is set midway through season two.
Miscellaneous: Like all my stuff, this little drabble is unbetaed, so all mistakes are my own. Point and laugh at will.
P.S. Writing vignettes is getting kind of addictive.

Because he was intelligent.

Because he was kind.

Because he was thoughtful.

Because he just made sense.

These were only a handful of the reasons Lois Lane chose Clark Kent. Clark — her partner, her best friend.

Not the superhero in blue spandex and a red cape.

Not the man who could fly her to Paris in four minutes.

No. She chose Clark. Dependable, ordinary, near-sighted Clark.

Because she loved him. His smile. His wit. His character. Even his unfortunate taste in neckwear.

She loved Clark.

The realization still left her a little weak in the knees.

If only she could work up the courage to tell him.

He’d won, even if he didn’t know it yet.

Clark Kent had beaten Superman.
