I hope you are enjoying the ride!  Feedback most welcome! 
Reach for the moon, for even if you fail, you'll still land among the stars... and who knows? Maybe you'll meet Superman along the way.

Enjoying the ride, most definitely.
So, does Clark know that she knows. He's keeps revealing himself in front of her? The Metro door, the lowering of glasses, the opening of the locked door, the rescue from the Miata.
I also love that she doesn't think, hey, if I put myself in danger, what if he *doesn't* know I'm in danger? Would she have to call out for his help and let him know she knows? And then she puts herself in danger without meaning to -- so Lois.
Lex Luthor? How does he play into this? Stealing a necklace for a girlfriend? Tsk-tsk, Lex. Of course, stealing a necklace for a pair of eyes on an old statue. Priceless. So, are they going to end up in India? That's out of Europe.

It's fun to see the wheels turning in Lois' head as she devises her plan.
Love the thought of Lois and Clark at the opera in Rome!

Lois on the trail of Lex Luthor. Delightful.
At the rate things are happening with Lane and Kent I look forward to Clark in the bullpen of the Daily Planet. Cat hits on him and he declines holding up his left hand and tapping his wedding ring. Cat purrs that his wife would never need to know, and Clark replies "Too late she'd standing behind you"

I, too, am most definitely enjoying the ride! I also like Lois' inner turmoil and that to her surprise, she is attracted to Clark. More soon, please

Oh words cannot describe how much I am enjoying this fic! Your inner Lois makes me laugh - she's perfect.
And yes... the opera... wonder what will happen at the opera?
Was Lois' passport in her purse?
LOIS:I don't like you.
MAYSON: Really? Oh god, that is such a relief - I don't like you either.
LOIS: That makes me feel so much better

Sorry I haven't had time to respond before now--but I loved this! I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying this story. I think you've nailed the characters so completely, and their dialogue is amazing!
I wish I had time to leave details, but just know that I loved this whole part!
Can't wait for the next part.

I love this story and the direction you have takeen with it. It's nice to see Lois knowing about Clark's powers from the beginning as opposed to being "galactically stupid." I keep wondering if Clark knows that Lois knows. It seems like he probably suspects her knowing. After all, he saw her in Rome now and I'm sure he saw those pictures with his handprint on the plane that he has skillfully "borrowed" from her. It's interesting to have Lois purposefully try to get close to Clark and become partners with him in order to gain his trust. I suppose she doesn't quite plan on him gaining her trust and love quite yet. But it's definitely an original beginning of their relationship. I'm not-so-patiently waiting for the next chapter.

VirginiaR So, does Clark know that she knows. He's keeps revealing himself in front of her? The thing is, even when Lois didn't know in canon, Clark would do these little reveals ALL the time (except for the metro car thing...) I won't tell you if he knows. Clark is just being Clark--only Lois is aware of what is actually going on this time! So, are they going to end up in India? No. That was only a little bit of trivia I found on wikipedia Framework4 At the rate things are happening with Lane and Kent I look forward to Clark in the bullpen of the Daily Planet. Cat hits on him and he declines holding up his left hand and tapping his wedding ring. Cat purrs that his wife would never need to know, and Clark replies "Too late she'd standing behind you"   bellarese Was Lois' passport in her purse? I did mention in the fic that her passport was left at the hotel. Thank you all for the gushingly kind reviews of my fic!  I hope you like the next part, which is near and dear to my heart since it's about opera.

 Lex Luthor is a famous philanthropist in Metropolis and someone who I’ve suspected for a while has been in less than savory dealings. In fact, he was one of my ‘out there’ suspects for who might be behind the gunrunning in the Congo.  How did this twist come to be? So far, Lois's past seemed quite standard, expect for the Euro-trip. “Did you learn anything else?” I ask, still reeling from the fact that Lex Luthor is somehow tied up in this. Curious indeed. And now they're going to the opera? Lois isn't expecting the diva would wear the collier, is she? /rushes off to check out another part/ Michael
