Hi mozartmaid,
I read through this about a week ago and have to admit that it confused me. After all, why would Lois go out with Lex after learning:
1) Clark was Superman
2) They get along well together.
You see, I read this story at about 2:00 am my time and somehow I managed to miss this line:
It had all been ruined two nights earlier.
I re-read the story this afternoon, noticed the key line this time, and now it makes a lot more sense.
The juxtaposition of S1 and S2 makes for an interesting idea.
I do like that Lois had some reason for her behavior at the door. But her reaction does make me curious what happened with Lex.
On to part 2.
Bob
