All Clark could do was put the phone back in its cradle and smile at her, as the whole newsroom kept watching and waiting for his reaction.
“I need a hug first before I make any decisions,” Clark said with a teasing smile as he opened his arms for the hug that he was sure was about to come.
Sure enough she came into his arms at an almost run and picked her up easily. God he never knew he could miss someone this much. She hugged him back with equal enthusiasm.
“I’m gonna kiss you, you know”
“I’d be disappointed if you didn’t”
She lowered her mouth to his, and gave him a sweet gentle kiss on the lips, which he responded to, she lifted her head and continued to hug each other.
“Oh god I think I just felt my rib breaking,” she whispered in his ear.
He set her down quickly down and apologized quickly with worry in his eyes.
“Relax I was just teasing!”
“Haha you’re funny” with a serious face.
“I know, I learned that from you.” She said with laughter showing on her face.
“Come on, I want you to meet everyone.” He said as he steered her to the three people who were staring, but turned their gazes away and looking at anything but the couple that were heading their way.
