Thanks for reading, y'all! It's always a big thrill to read how some are perceiving the story.

In4adventure, thanks for reading! Maybe they'll be together in no time - and maybe they won't. We'll see.

DW, they are indeed going to dance at the ball. It won't go quite the way it did in the pilot, although I tried not to go too far afield.

Michael, we'll see what happens to Dr. Platt. And Lois is letting Clark lead out because she's focused on getting the story in this tale, not on being the head honcho all the time. We'll see how Lois views Clark once she gets to know him better.

Next part up very soon! Thanks again!
