So, happy with Lois' reaction at Cindy? Happy at how her date with Brian went? And what's Clark going to do about Jenny?

Brian was a piece of work. But since both of them had lied on their profiles, they both deserve what they got. He should have gotten the hint that Opera wasn't really one of her main loves.

Opera? Traditional woman? Ugh, Lois. That ain't you, girl. Why would you want a man who couldn't love you for who you are, instead of who you think he'd want you to be? Yes, the last thing you want is another Lex Luthor.

Oh, yes. I have this strange feeling that Clark will turn the tables on Lois soon and prove to her that she was wrong. (In wanting him to be with someone else.) I hope he doesn't end up using anyone just to make Lois jealous. I always thought what he had done to Mayson was slightly out of character, leading her on like that. It was understandable only if you consider he's blissfully unaware how much she liked him and that he didn't want to hurt her feelings, just as he did with Cindy. (Well, just the latter part with Cindy. She let him know FULL well that he was welcome to her.)

Quote
“Cindy?” he called out carefully. She turned.

“Sorry, Clark. Guess I got my wires crossed. From both of you.” She turned to look at her big cousin just standing in the kitchen area, then she left and shut the door behind her.
I was a tad surprised that he called out to Cindy as she left. I would think he'd be more relieved. But, as always, Clark is a gentleman. Also, did Lois tell Cindy that her behavior towards Clark was unwelcome or that she was coming on too strongly? That's not going to bode well for Lois and Cindy's relationship.

Poor Clark. Poor Jenny. She thinks she has a date with a handsome and kind man who is actually interested in her. I hope Clark will be kind and not tell her that his best friend had set up this date and his profile. His best friend who was acting less and less like a friend should. I hope he has a good time on his date and becomes friends with Jenny just to spite Lois.

Perhaps he should pay her back in kind and set her up with some lousy dates. I hear that Ralph's still available. What about Jimmy? Has he found his special someone yet? Being a good 5+ years younger than Clark, he hasn't even reached 30.

Quote
I’m going to have to speak to her about this soon. Need to bring up The Pact. He rested his forehead on his hand. I can’t believe I’m doing this. How did she even get me to agree to The Pact all those years ago? And now I’m the one that’s going to try and enforce it.
BAD idea, Clark. VERY bad idea. If you want Lois, and you do, you need to prove to her that you want her despite the pact. Best thing to do is to cancel it, AND THEN ask her out on a date. laugh

Hi Vic!

Quote
Lois saw Cindy begin to rise up on her tiptoes and her mouth dropped open when she realised that her baby cousin was about to kiss her best friend.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Clark took it on himself to tidy away.
[Linked Image] Did Cindy kiss so badly that Clark had to block it from his mind?

Quote
He glanced to his side and saw Cindy gazing at him, her chin resting on her hand, itself resting on the coffee table.
Oh, you went back in time a bit. Duh!

Quote
She’d been making her interest known all evening and Clark had yet to figure out how to gently let her down.
Maybe ‘I’m sorry, but I’m into reporters’?

Quote
Shifting forward she came closer, so he shifted backwards.
smile1

Quote
“Clark?” she said as she tipped her head to the side. She stepped towards him. “I get the feeling you’re uncomfortable.”
Reminds me of Lois during PML. Say, how *did* they manage that one?

Quote
I think it’s time to be up front now.
Sounds like she’s trying to get her front up into his face.

Quote
We’ve had a fun evening. I’d like to do it again sometime.”
‘Have fun’? Later that night? In his bedroom?

Quote
“Don’t fight this. I think we could be good together.
Lois hasn’t killed him yet so he’s likely not a cad. Cindy wants something dependable for a change? Like a Volvo?

Quote
I’m attracted to you, and I know you’ve been watching me.”
Yeah, like the doe watches the lion stalking the herd.

Quote
Rather he was concerned over her behaviour.
CLAKR: help

Quote
As he blinked in shock she tipped her head back and rose up on her toes.

“No!” A crash and a shout from the kitchen had both Clark and Cindy turning to look.
rotflol

Quote
“I, uh ... I, uh ... dropped the popcorn,” she replied but Clark could see the deadly glare that Lois was giving her cousin.
CINDY: huh

Quote
“Sorry, Clark. Guess I got my wires crossed. From both of you.” She turned to look at her big cousin just standing in the kitchen area, then she left and shut the door behind her.
So, she won’t be attending the wedding as a bride’s maid?
LOIS: Well, she’s not a maiden, even if she’s presently unwed.

Quote
“Cindy made a pass at you and you dealt with it like some virgin schoolboy.”
CLARK: *squeak*
Also, does he need to…umm…spin into his Superman suit for the way home?

Quote
“If it wasn’t for the fact that she’s your cousin ... and you’ve been here all night ... and you just stopped her from kissing me I would swear you set me up again,” he challenged.
laugh

Quote
immediately bending down to start clearing the spilled popcorn from the floor.

Clark groaned in frustration at the sight.
Turning away from him, huh?

Quote
He lingered for another moment taking in the sight of the soft, grey material pulled tightly over her behind,
goofy

Quote
How did she even get me to agree to The Pact all those years ago?
Reasonably good looking. Not completely unreasonably inebriated. And pushy.

Quote
You can’t force her into anything; she’s Lois Lane.
No but he can trick her by dating other women in front of her.

Quote
And even if she wasn’t Lois Lane it would be unfair to make her stick to The Pact if she no longer wanted to.
[Linked Image]
#16 - A deal is a deal.
#17 - A contract is a contract is a contract ... but only between Ferengi.
LOIS: Fine. But we all know that females aren’t allowed to make deals or engage in contracts.

Quote
Another voice joined in. It was deeper, in his head, it was Superman’s. But you cannot afford to be selfish in that way. The world needs you. A hero is not meant to love.
[Linked Image]

Quote
“Yes, but how would my heart cope with a lukewarm reception every time I walked, or flew, in the door?”
Yeah, like she’d ever be lukewarm Either, she’d be all horny and happy that he’s back or she’d be mad that he’s stuck her with the kids, again.

Quote
He groaned and pinched his nose, adjusting his glasses. I can’t believe I’ve just argued with myself about this. And then changed my own mind, twice. What am I going to do?
[Linked Image]

Quote
Maybe he’s just having a bad hair day.
So, head looks like Ralphs?

Quote
And a bad clothes day.
Dog mistook him for a fire hydrant while he slept off last night’s cheap booze underneath one of the bridges that span Hobs Bay

Quote
And a bad body day.
Waistline like Bill Church?
BRIAN: Looky there! Jackpot!

Quote
“So, what Operas have you attended recently?” he asked.
Well…there’s Wrong Clark, which is kind of about soaps and stuff…

Quote
I guess it’s been over six months since I last went to the theatre.”
Well…that’s not a lie.

Quote
“So, have you ever seen the whole Cycle, or just the separate Operas?”
LOIS: huh

Quote
“Oh, sorry. Well, what are your current interests then?”
LOIS: Mel Gibson. And Ivory Tower reruns.

Quote
“Well, my career,” Lois answered quickly before remembering that she’d mentioned being a traditional woman, hoping it was more likely to be appealing.
LOIS: Yes. Career. I’m working on being the world’s foremost expert in managing a household for my husband and provider while raising his children.

Quote
“Oh!” He went quiet for a moment. “Lois Lane. Journalism. How come I didn’t put it together before?
Because he’s either not very smart or a crook. They usually haven’t heard of Lois Lane before she traps them by letting herself be tied up.

Quote
She smiled and left a confused, but possibly relieved, Brian finishing his scone.
Do they have ratings on the dating profile? Will Brian be giving her 2 stars and comment that she was good looking but a terrible date?

Quote
Maybe it’s like eavesdropping on someone’s conversation. What’s the moral code for listening to someone’s heart?
ICU nurses: It’s our job.
NIA truth specialist: What’s this ‘moral code’ thing?

Quote
Clark fought with his conscience over it then decided that it wasn’t as if he were actually stalking her.
Uh-huh?

Quote
Superman. That would have to be addressed if The Pact ever came to fruition. How will she take it?
His sneaking out at all times of the day, smelling strangely when he gets back and telling obvious fake stories about what he did while away?

Quote
“Routine! Kent! There is nothing routine about Superman saving people. He is a miracle. And every life he saves, every disaster he averts is a gift to us all.” Lois spoke passionately.
Really? Even 8 years down the line?
LOIS: [Linked Image]

Quote
How do you get those articles, Clark?”
He’s sharing a bedroom with Superman?

Quote
Plus she would have had to confess that it had been a terrible failure.
Maybe even that she’d been wrong to specify an incorrect profile?
LOIS: [Linked Image]

Quote
She carefully adjusted her responses, taking the time to think about each answer.
Oooooh! Now it will more closely match the woman she’s trying to find for Clark.

Quote
“Well, it got me thinking,” she continued in a false bright tone. “Even though your accusations were completely without any basis in truth and I am totally offended that you would think such things of me
rotflol

Quote
“I signed you up to a dating website and you have a date for tonight.”

“You what!” he shouted as he stood up.
evil So, will Clark get her to give up the password? And will he modify the profile to actually match what he wants? And then they’ll have mail?

Awesome--great part! I can-not-wait to see where this is going, KK smile

Lets see....Lois' reaction to Cindy? Well, I love that Clark and Cindy didn't kiss, thanks to the dropped bowl of popcorn and Lois' scream--but really, I think Clark would have gotten away in the nick of time, regardless. But yes, the fact that Lois intervened--that is GREAT! I really like how Clark is tuning into her--noticing her heartbeat and her breathing--and really, how natural it feels for him to do so.

Favorite line from Cindy:
Quote
“Sorry, Clark. Guess I got my wires crossed. From both of you.” She turned to look at her big cousin just standing in the kitchen area, then she left and shut the door behind her.

Think through this Clark...it implies a lot about the feelings of your best friend wink. Lois' interruption, Lois' glare at Cindy, Lois' breathing/heartbeat, the heated debate in the kitchen, Cindy storming out...stating the confusion. It's all right there in front of you (but the story is still young...it'll be awhile, I suppose, till pieces are put together thumbsup ).

So glad that Brian is out of the picture dance. A coffee date based on false pretenses. Opera? Traditional woman? Yikes--yeah Lois, if you are honestly going to try to find someone here (and come on, you have Clark right in front of you, he's perfect for you wink ), do it based on what you really like to do and who you really are. Otherwise....there's just no point. I'm glad that Lois didn't lead Brian on as the date was ending, and honestly ended any possibility of the two of them getting together again.

Jenny. Yeah--I just don't know what's going to happen here. I would not blame Clark for being really (really) mad at Lois for all the meddling. So much awkwardness our poor Clark has been through already in this story--and really, he's handled it all pretty well. Part of me sees him going on the date--since it's planned and so as not to disappoint Jenny--she's done nothing wrong. Part of me sees him meeting up with Jenny, explaining the situation, and just doing a friend thing for the night. I don't at all see him leading Jenny on by getting into a false relationship, it's not his style. And I can't see him actually falling for Jenny, cause that boy is in love with Lois. So again, back to the beginning of my babble--I just don't know what's going to happen dizzy. (But I am dying to find out!!!!! grovel hail clap ).

Loving the story!
Laura




"Where's Clark?" "Right here."

...two simple sentences--with so much meaning.

Hey, glad to see this post and hope you continue to grow stronger as each day goes by! Now on to my comments!

Quote
“I’ve noticed those eyes glancing at me, those beautiful, brown eyes – hiding behind dull glasses.” Her hands reached up from his chest and he stepped back in momentary terror to keep her from pulling off his glasses.

He couldn’t step very far though as Cindy grabbed his shirt and yanked him back. As he blinked in shock she tipped her head back and rose up on her toes.

'Little, baby cousin Cindy is man eater!

Quote
“Sorry, Clark. Guess I got my wires crossed. From both of you.” She turned to look at her big cousin just standing in the kitchen area, then she left and shut the door behind her.

As was previously mentioned, Cindy said wires were crossed from both of them! Shouldn't Clark seriously question that comment? I know if it was me I would want to know exactly what she meant by that remark.

Quote
I’m going to have to speak to her about this soon. Need to bring up The Pact. He rested his forehead on his hand. I can’t believe I’m doing this. How did she even get me to agree to The Pact all those years ago? And now I’m the one that’s going to try and enforce it.

Enforce? Don't be silly! Both of you need to sit down and calmly discuss this like a couple of rational thirtysomethings!

Quote
She put a bright smile on her face and strode forwards. As she drew closer she found that the smile began to drop so she steeled herself and kept it in place.

Sounds like a blind date I had once. But he turned out to be a pleasant conversationalist. We had a coffee, talked about a lot of interesting subjects and then went our separate ways never to meet again. smile No harm done.

Instead of brushing Brian off like an annoying flea, Lois should have spent a little time with him rather than inhaling her drink and running away. After all, he took time out to see her as well.

Grow up Lois!!! grovel

Great story Victoria! Keep up the good work! But please do not overexert yourself. We can wait.

Ouch. I'm glad Lois is finally telling the truth, but poor Clark! There's no way he'll figure out the real reason she is playing Yente. And since they're at work, there's far less chance of an honest conversation ensuing, especially since Clark's shout undoubtedly drew all eyes in the bullpen to him.

Joy,
Lynn

p.s., To answer your questions: Yes, yes, and go out on the date with Jenny in an angry reaction to Lois's seeming rejection of him?

Of course he's a gentleman. And Lois' conversation with Cindy in the kitchen contributed even more to Cindy's confusion. Although you don't see it Lois reverted to matchmaker, but couldn't hide her shock and upset at the almost kiss. Cindy doesn't really believe Lois anymore.

Quote
Poor Clark. Poor Jenny. She thinks she has a date with a handsome and kind man who is actually interested in her. I hope Clark will be kind and not tell her that his best friend had set up this date and his profile. His best friend who was acting less and less like a friend should. I hope he has a good time on his date and becomes friends with Jenny just to spite Lois.
Poor Jenny indeed. So close to the perfect man ... and it's just a setup.

Quote
Perhaps he should pay her back in kind and set her up with some lousy dates. I hear that Ralph's still available. What about Jimmy? Has he found his special someone yet? Being a good 5+ years younger than Clark, he hasn't even reached 30.

Yeah. Cindy did kind of give some stuff away ... but it was just a little too vague, and also a little confusing because of Lois' fluctuating behaviour.

Jenny. Yeah--I just don't know what's going to happen here. I would not blame Clark for being really (really) mad at Lois for all the meddling. So much awkwardness our poor Clark has been through already in this story--and really, he's handled it all pretty well. Part of me sees him going on the date--since it's planned and so as not to disappoint Jenny--she's done nothing wrong. Part of me sees him meeting up with Jenny, explaining the situation, and just doing a friend thing for the night. I don't at all see him leading Jenny on by getting into a false relationship, it's not his style. And I can't see him actually falling for Jenny, cause that boy is in love with Lois. So again, back to the beginning of my babble--I just don't know what's going to happen dizzy. (But I am dying to find out!!!!! grovel hail clap ).

Loving the story!

Good thoughts on Clark and how he'll deal with Jenny. You'll see soon enough.

Well, yep. She's already been married ... a few times ... and she's actually younger than Lois ... but then this is also eight years into the future, though.

Enforce? Don't be silly! Both of you need to sit down and calmly discuss this like a couple of rational thirtysomethings!
BWAHAAHAA!!! Rational? Discuss?

Sounds like a blind date I had once. But he turned out to be a pleasant conversationalist. We had a coffee, talked about a lot of interesting subjects and then went our separate ways never to meet again. smile No harm done.

Instead of brushing Brian off like an annoying flea, Lois should have spent a little time with him rather than inhaling her drink and running away. After all, he took time out to see her as well.

Grow up Lois!!! grovel
Maybe she was too quick to judge! Should I have let her make another date with him? *waits expectantly*

Joy,
Lynn

p.s., To answer your questions: Yes, yes, and go out on the date with Jenny in an angry reaction to Lois's seeming rejection of him?
Absolutely right. There's no honest conversation coming ... yet. And Clark is about to meet Jenny!

Oh, she will just not for another 10 chapters or so...

Absolutely correct. Well. There's degrees of 'giving in', as you'll see ... but the 'final' giving in is quite a while off!

Really? You think Clark would ever let a woman have a disaster of a date?

Lois: "You put up with me for the same reason I put up with you. It's because I'm completely in love with you."
Clark: "And I love you ... Did we just make up?"
Lois: "I think so."

Okay, now I’m caught up on the FDK-FDK-FDK smile

WHOA! Even that might be too forward for Cindy. *ponders* Naaa.
You had me worried there for a sec.

Cindy's realised all her previous husbands/boyfriends were ... dirt. She's found a keeper here.

LOIS: [Linked Image]

No but he can trick her by dating other women in front of her.

Hmm. The thing is ... Lois thinks that Clark 'dating' is what she wants ... it might not work.
Rrrrrrright.

Wow. You got Star Trek into FDK. That's great. Especially as Teri was in a Star Trek episode. Yay.
blush Thank you. I do keep adding cross-over references into my FDK. You should read the ones for Virginia’s stories. Well…the ones that survived the board move mecry

Maybe it is Ralph? What if his middle name is Brian?

LOIS: Clark! I need some clarking!

Maybe you should have filled in Lois' profile for her?

Hmm. Rating your dates? Wonder how Jenny will come off...
Good question…Hmm…I think that was a veiled hint at part 7…

Wow. Two completely different thoughts on whether this is a good thing. Would Superman fall closer to the ICU job or the NIA? Saving lives or Spy?
Thank you blush And good question. I’m going with spy, considering how long he’s already been corrupted by his partner in crime.

Quote
I'm sure that story has been done before!
How did you know?

Quote
Clark will definitely demand his log in details ... but what will he do with them?
Ooooh!
