I'm so glad that you posted the second part already! It was definitely a pleasant surprise and I was more than happy to pass my time at work reading it. Oops? smile

I really like where this is going and I'm wondering if Lois is going to start putting things together with Clark and Superman. Kryptonite cage, Clark in the hospital, no Superman around town for the past (and next) few days... Hmm...

You portrayed Lois' emotions and fears so fabulously here! In her mind, Lex's death can't even compete with the fact that Clark is hurt; that shows so much about Lois' loyalty and her love for Clark. So wonderful! Can't wait for the next part!
