I have to agree with Virginia on Clark not resisting a tease. True, he does want to sleep with Lois eventually, but Clark also loves to tease. The fact that he let Lois respond to Martha's tease at all, instead of cutting her off with a "Mom" shows this.
Actually, it goes neyond that. Clark is so utterly surprised by her response he doesn't know what to do or how to respond.
If she is serious, he has hopes of his dreams coming true sooner rather than later and he doesn't want to do anything that would derail that train of thought.
