Yes! Yes! Yes! Awwwwww! /wipes away a tear/ How romantic! I'm so glad Clark didn't let any of the frustrating distractions actually distract him from his goal.
Nothing could distract him from his goal today. He was gonna propose no matter what!
That man in the boat was a nasty git. A hole in his shoe?
Oh, Clark!
*giggles*
I had forgotten that at the end of the previous part Lois had taken off to visit Lucy. You never mentioned where Lucy lived, so I was wondering why Lois was in Gotham. When you mentioned the stuffy greying man waiting in line (or was it behind the counter), I thought it might be Alfred or Nigel, and then wondered if Lois was in Gotham City to see Bruce Wayne.
Why else go to a city with millions of people in it, right?
Yeah, Lucy is in Gotham. The man in was meant to be behind the counter, just a flight attendant. No-one special.
Definitely my favorite part so far! So romantic. More please!
Thanks.
You still like your cliffhangers don't you??
Oh I love my cliffhangers, but this really wasn't one. You all know what the answer's gonna be. I don't actually class this as a cliffhanger.
Very good, very romantic(at least in their minds), very Lois and Clark. These kinds of scenes are what made me fall in love with the series and fanfic in the first place
.
Next!!! Oh, that's right: Saturday
Mike
Thank you. And ... it's Saturday!!!
Beautiful.
Thank you.
He needed a distraction from the pain, the loneliness. She’d been gone less than a day, but it felt like half his soul was missing.
You should have warned us that this is a death fic! What happened. Lois looked so well. Was her recuperation just a last glimmer of hope before the dreaded 24 hour bug got her in the end?
WELLS:
I’m sure I’m on time…
*sighs and shakes head*
Wandering aimlessly he found himself outside a particular shop he’d visited a few weeks ago.
Well…now that she’s no more, buying a ring won’t make it better. Maybe if he had bought a chastity ring *before*…
It didn't happen, Michael. No matter how much you've wanted it since the prologue, it didn't happen.
It set off thoughts of The Pact. He wondered about Lois’ statement of not focussing on the engagement. It felt like ‘one step backwards’.
And yet, they apparently also managed not only to get to third base but to actually do a home run.
See previous reply.
In fact, if it was ‘one step backwards’ then they’d actually taken two, maybe three, steps forwards - of a different kind, and wasn’t that an overall ‘win’?
This depends. If they stood one step in away from the ravine, took one further step back and then three steps forward, well…
Picky! I guess you are a glass half empty person.
constantly approaching the boarding desk only to be given a frosty look by the tall, stern, greying gentleman who was waiting patiently.
What’s Alfred doing at the airport? And why didn’t Clark take Lois back? And isn’t Gotham just across the bay? /points at early S3 eps/
Alfred? He was undercover. Don't ask any more. I'm not allowed to say.
Gotham is traditionally next to Metropolis (not counting towns, villages, small cities), but they can still be hundreds of miles apart too.
“Lois!” came as a growl from his throat.
He mad at her?
Nope!
He took her hand and dragged her to the conference room.
Huh. Okay, horny, then.
Yep.
As he pressed her against the door, the kiss, which had been sweet and gentle, turned hot and needy.
The doors opening into the conference room, right? Otherwise…
JIMMY:
Yes, the door opens into the conference room. And Lois is pushed against it. By a super strong man. No-one is getting in.
Clark bought Lois a hotdog and they sat on a bench looking out over the lake while eating. Why am I finding it so hard? He rested his hand on his thigh and the box in his pocket poked at his wrist.
Because traditionally, a proposal happens in a romantic restaurant, not between hotdogs in the park. Maybe that’s the reason why Lois declined his first ring-offer?
Nothing has been traditional about their relationship so far!!!
He turned to look at her. She was taking a bite of her hotdog.
Please tell me he didn’t put the ring onto the dog in the hot.
Okay. He didn't put the ring onto the dog in the hot.
She glanced down at her hand and then casually tossed the last, small piece into the water.
Was that the end where he stuck the ring!
I just told you that he
didn't put the ring onto the dog in the hot.
Fingering the box in his pocket he made a decision then and a weight left his shoulders.
Proposing to Mayson instead would lead to less trouble?
LOIS: Oh no it wouldn't!
“Looking where I was going! Is that what you were going to say?”
Clark held out his arm peacefully. “I just think you should calm down, sir.”
“If anyone needed to look, it was you. Four eyes.”
Oh boy. I first expected Clark going overboard and the ring finding its way into a fish, but now…Does that twerp realize that it’s not a good idea to anger a Kryptonian in the middle of a lake while standing on a flammable floatation device?
No. The ring is safe. But the twerp ... isn't.
“Lois, I burnt a hole in the bottom of his shoe.”
Oh dear. Can you imagine what he’ll do when he finds Lois in bed with Call-Me-Daniel a couple of years down the road?
Hide all Dan's Hawaiian shirts?
“Um, I guess that’s up to you Lois. You see ...” he coughed. “I, well ...”
“Lois!” came a shrill, high voice from behind. He whipped his head round to see Suzie running towards them.
KARMA: I’m a bitch, huh?
FATE: But I'm still gonna win.
He looked up and let out a quick puff of air causing the tree branches to shake. Lois let go of his hands and laughed delightedly when the pink blossoms began raining down all around her.
It's been three days. Have you managed to pull yourself up of the floor yet, and reassemble your molecules out of that pile of goo?
“Lois Lane. Will you marry me?”
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
ZARA: Hello, Kal-El.
FATE: *punches Zara* (turns to Clark) Just ignore her. Carry on ...
Was it as good as you hoped? Let me know.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Michael
Thanks.
