Part 18 Yeah, I know 19's already up, but I couldn't resist the title.
Reminds me of Men In Black.
And I wanted to point out that this last bit is brilliant:
I watched Lois's expression as she discovered that Clark was still breathing. It went far beyond relief into territory they don't have words for. If I'd ever had reason to question the risk I'd taken in standing in that alley, that one look would have been enough to settle the issue. Smiling to myself, I snuck back down to sewers. I'd saved Clark. I'd saved Superman. Life was good.
I especially love the second sentence. Love it. And I love Tommy saving Superman like this. Especially his noticing Lois's relief. Tommy's really softened some, and since he's now in love himself, he can feel even better about what he's done to help.
