The time had come. The food was on the plates, and the bottle of wine was open.
Lois sighed around a big smile.
Was Clark ready?
She tapped loudly on the cell door.
"Lois?"
He *sounded* the same. "Can I open the door?" she called.
There was a slight hesitation - and her ears filled with the thundering of her heart.
Then his answer cut through her anticipation. "Yes."
Lois unlocked the door and reached behind her for a chair. Once it was secured in place, she looked up.
Thanks!
Corrina.
