He pulled her into a hug, which she turned into a long soft kiss, which he returned with less enthusiasm than she would have preferred.
Hmm, maybe he is about to realize that Rebecca is not right for him. I hope he does.
Didn’t your mother tell not to eat anything for at least
I am pretty sure it should be "motehr tell you not".
She was young and alive and beautiful. She was smart and talented and so very full of life. And he was sure that if he asked her to marry him, she’d tackle him and say “yes” so many times she’d deplete the oxygen in the room.
another person realizes Clark needs Lois.
The thought stunned her for a long moment, then it resolved itself into a best case scenario. Clark should marry Lois, and not because she was Ultra Woman. Lois was strong enough to stand up to him while she supported him in all of his endeavors, and she was secure enough to accept his help and support for hers. And it would eliminate any problems about Superman making his wife jealous of Ultra Woman. Or vice versa.
This is true. However, I think Lois would be the women for Clark without her being Ultra Women. Even without the incentive of the telepathic link.
She refolded the letter and put it back in the bottom towel. Maybe someday Clark would find it and read it and smile as he remembered Lana.
Clark has not found the letter?
They’d applied for supplemental funds and had been turned down because their mission didn’t fit the Superman Foundation’s parameters for funding, but the directors had managed to match them up with another source of funds, which, ironically, was Lana’s organization, Digger Enterprises.
Which is essentially Superman Foundation funds shifted off and reapplied through the living wisdom of Lana Lang Kent.
He’d been okay with Lana traveling for her career, though. The difference was that he knew that he’d been Lana’s top priority.
Yes, that is a big difference.
Even if Lana had been asked to unearth Atlantis and get all the credit and the money and fame that would have come to her, she would have involved Clark in the decision to take that job. And even though Lana hadn’t begun their marriage involving Clark in such decisions, he had no doubt that she’d grown into that mindset before she’d died.
Clark: I am not sure I can go back to being disconnected while in marriage as Lana and I were early on. Plus, Lana loved my deeply in a way that I don't think Rebecca does.
Or that she even knew that Superman *had* a civilian life.
This is the real key to Superman's secret. He acts as if he does not have one.
He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. “I was starting to get worried about you.”
What Clark really means. "I was starting to get worried you would show up in seductive clothing."
The door latched and she pointed her footsteps toward the elevator, wondering if she were the weakest, the most fragile, and absolutely the dumbest woman who’d ever lived, or if she were one of the strongest and wisest.
I would rate her wise. Selfish at times, but wise in her decision. If she cannot be the grounding support Clark needs, she should not try.
Nothing really worked. He needed to talk to someone. But who?
Duh, Clark. When in trouble, talk to your parents.
I was hoping he would talk to Lois.
