She stayed a safe distance away and he tried to ignore her so that he could focus on his task, but Lois Lane could never be ignored. They had so much that they needed to say and Clark wondered what was going on in her mind. Did she think he was the man who had kissed her on the dance floor just hours before?
Love this. Even when he is busy being Superman, she consumes his thoughts.
He snorted to himself in derisive humor causing a man who was still trapped under some rubble to look at him in concern. Clark mentally shook himself and gave the man an apologetic smile. “Sorry. Long day.” He said.

Clark felt his mood lightened and he quipped, “Maybe next time your company should plan something that has a little less flare.”
The imposter’s face twisted and he said in disdain, “You’re mistaken. You can’t be Superman, because I am.” And then he leapt from the building. Clark watched in fascination as the confidence slipped from the man’s face as gravity took hold. The imposter waved his hands as if trying to grab the very air as he started to fall.
Very intriguing. This man obviously believes he really is Superman.
It was only then that she noticed Superman lying unconscious only a few feet away.
Whoops. Of course everyone is going to think that the imposter is Superman, since he is the one wearing the suit.
He knew she should see if he was alive, but when she saw his chest rise and fall, it was enough. He was breathing. He would be all right. He was Superman, after all.
She is staying with Clark! Yea!
Shouldn’t he be in some bar right now, telling some woman who he really was so that she would go home with him? Lois sighed. She was going to check on Superman. Eventually. She just hadn’t gotten around to it yet.
Ohh, she's seriously pissed. And it sounds like maybe she is thinking the man on the dance floor was Superman after all.
They smiled as they beheld a furious Lois as if it was the best show going.
They wouldn't be grinning if she was furious at *them*!
Great chapter!
