Ahhh... life with Clark is much better for Lois, despite her arrogance. Laura

That was clever. You've captured Lois' quirks nicely.

Delightful. I do wonder how Clark influenced the elevator? Did he or was Lois just distracted talking with him and didn't notice the passage of time?

I'm sure he supersped to get her chocolate and put it on the coffee cart.

So cute and fun! Loved the last line: "Clark Kent is so weird." Could totally hear Lois saying it!

Delightful vignette! smile

That was really cute and captured Lois' quirks very well indeed! clap

Loved the last line 'Clark Kent was so weird' too and Lois would say something like that laugh

Nice one - one small error, "How did she get inanimate objectives to behave the way she wanted?" should be objects.

That was adorable. I really like the juxtaposition of just a couple of weeks before Clark and after Clark. And she doesn't even know what's different clap

Thank you all for the comments. My sincerest apologies for not responding in a timely manner. The morning after I posted this we got word that my DH's grandfather died, so we immediately left to visit his family. We were there for 2 days, but it was a hectic two days and any online time was devoted to work as I was supposed to work one of those days as my last day in the office for two weeks. Since that didn't happen, I had to work pretty much anytime I wasn't sleeping or doing family stuff to get things done.

In addition to the obvious sadness from my DH's grandfather's passing, this trip also included a car accident as the roads were awful. Luckily no injuries to us or our car, but made the drive home a bit slower going since we were worried we wouldn't be so lucky a second time. So, we got back from that trip about 16 hours before my dad was picking us up to take us to the cruise terminal for a two week vacation. Since we needed to pack, sleep, and finish some shopping that was supposed to happen the day we left for DH's family, as you can guess, I never even got on my computer, let alone online.

By the time we got back from vacation last Monday, I seriously forgot I had posted something before I left, and was busy with last minute X-mas shopping (also supposed to be finished before we left, but oh well), and catching up with work, etc. All in all, it's been hectic.

But I finally remembered about this story and it was such a pleasure to see all the feedback, so thank you!

Patrick - Yes, Clark did influence the elevator. He unplugged it from whatever electronic thing let's it know there's been a request, pushed it to the floor the people on it needed to go and then pushed it down to the ground floor before re-hooking it up. And yes, he also super-speeded to get her chocolate at the coffee cart.

When I first envisioned this story, it also included a few moments in the newsroom during the day of him looking over and blasting her coffee with heat vision so it was always hot when she took a sip, but in the final version, it didn't make sense to get that far.

Thanks, Marcus! I'll make sure to change that error before I post it to the archive (although, I'm also sure I'll find more).

Thanks again everyone for the comments!
