I love this story and the direction you have takeen with it. It's nice to see Lois knowing about Clark's powers from the beginning as opposed to being "galactically stupid."

I keep wondering if Clark knows that Lois knows. It seems like he probably suspects her knowing. After all, he saw her in Rome now and I'm sure he saw those pictures with his handprint on the plane that he has skillfully "borrowed" from her.

It's interesting to have Lois purposefully try to get close to Clark and become partners with him in order to gain his trust. I suppose she doesn't quite plan on him gaining her trust and love quite yet. But it's definitely an original beginning of their relationship.

I'm not-so-patiently waiting for the next chapter. smile1
