Yay! You posted! I loved it!
Awwwwwwww. So sweet. Warms my heart right from the start.
I did promise WAFFY!
Haha, love that she can read his face so well, although he's probably not doing much to hide it.
Yeah, she needs to rescue Clark before he throttles Dan.
Haha, yeah! Scram, Dan, you homewrecker you!
Nobody wants you here, Danny boy!
smart boy.
Yes, even Superman has to take his time when cooking red meat.
Love how vague you played it. We're used to seeing her mad about the revelation, so this is a nice change of pace. Plus the detail of the despair in his eyes is great. *Pats Clark on the head* There, there. She doesn't want the out, it'll be fine.
Thanks. She's processing a lot of things here. His admission from that morning, her recent uncovering of the revelation, and her own feelings. It's a lot to digest.
So sad and sweet that that moment stays with her so strongly, that she still doesn't like thinking about it.
She broke his heart so completely and thorougly and that was a turning point for both of them. It'd make sense it still pops up in her mind.
Her timing is impeccable. Beat him to the punch, right when he was about to spill all.
That's all she needed. A hint that he was going to tell her.
perfect! I loved it! The ending leaving off here leaves it so light and funny. Great job!
Thanks Mouse! Glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for reading and helping plant the idea with the bantering.
Hahahahaha that was awesome!!!
I don’t know which I liked more- Lois shutting Dan down so thoroughly, the waffiness, or the revelation at the end.
Aw, thanks NK!
Glad you enjoyed the shut down of Dan and the comical revelation.
Hi Valerie!
So, a sequel to In Too Deep?.../checks FDK/ Huh, who’d have thunk?
“Just don’t leave town, Kent,” Scardino joked patting him on the shoulder rougher than necessary.
‘Patience,’ he reminded himself, squashing the urge to throw back a sarcastic retort. “I wasn’t planning on it.”
That’s great!
Do not squash Scardino like the bug he is. Do not squash Scardino like the bug he is.
The clearing of Dan Scardino’s throat from behind them pulled her out of the trance she’d fallen under, staring into Clark Kent’s eyes. She could lose herself in those eyes for all eternity. She had fallen hard.
Isn’t it interesting how it was the same with Superman’s eyes, just a few months earlier?
LOIS: Hey, are you calling me fickle?
CLARK:

no planting ideas like that in poor Clark's head.
He wasn’t convinced but decided not to push the issue. He took a deep breath, mentally preparing himself for the task at hand, “You know, I’m actually glad you suggested a low-key dinner tonight. There’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you. I’ve wanted to tell you for a long time now but…”
She took a bite of her potatoes and made a grimace. “Oh, I guess I let it sit too long.” She pushed the plate toward him, “Would you mind giving this a quick warmup with your thingamajig?”

Whoops!
“Oh, don’t give me that look, Clark,” Lois gave him a knowing smile, “Did you really think I wouldn’t figure it out?”
That was lots of fun! Now I wonder how long she had known? And did she dump Dan before or after she figured it out?
CLARK: Great, here come the doubts…
And what if Clark hadn’t opened up and she had known and chosen Dan. Well…kinda chosen him, the way she did on the show.
CLARK: Now that’s just mean!

See, there's a ton of ways you could go. I like to think that she figured it out that morning. But who knows? Now you get to play with it and have a good laugh. The lovely world of waffy endings and deer in headlights expressions.

What a lovely little story, and a great ending! Looks like I'll have to go and read In Too Deep now as well.
Thanks for stopping by and reading. Glad you enjoyed this one.
Hahaha that was great! Well done!
Glad I could give you a good laugh, jackiek!
