Clark: "And I love you ... Did we just make up?"
Lois: "I think so."

I am thoroughly enjoying this story, and I am eager to see the next part.
I am doubly appreciative because my very first L&C story was along a similar theme, but you are handling it far more adeptly than I had done. Brava!
Joy,

Yes, he's in trouble. But he'll enjoy it.
Part 2? Now? Just asking.

He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement."
"You can say that again," she told him.
"I have a...."

 Yep, that could be a problem - this is why I had my version of Supergirl enter a Supergirl look-alike competition, so that she could say "yes, I look a lot like her, but so did the other sixteen entries" or words to that effect.

 Clark's in trouble now. How is going to wear that shirt without giving anything away? He could wear it to bed as a pajama shirt, maybe. I can picture Lois berating him for not supporting the SM foundation by not purchasing any Superman memorabilia. (Sure, that's why *Lois* buys all the stuff, right?  ) "Oh, come on Clark," she chattered, "it's not such an odd thing to give you," obviously misinterpreting the look on his face. "I'm actually surprised you don't have one already. I mean he is your best friend, or is that you are his? I know he and I are close, but I think you and he are closer. I guess that's cause you are both guys. Anyway I know you admire him. I'm sure there's even a little hero worship in there. So I don't understand why you don't already have a Superman t-shirt. I do. And you saw my pyjamas." Lois voice, although she continued to speak, faded away and Clark was suddenly back in their hotel room on the first night of the conference. I had to read that line twice to get the other meaning. At first, I thought Lois was saying Clark was both CK and SM  Thanks for joining in on the Exotic Locale Challenge too.

Ditto to what VirginiaR said about that particular line. Loved the story so far and love the romantic edge to it. Can't wait for part 2!
Clark: "Lois, you know, I really hope someday that you learn, that sometimes what it seems like people are doing isn't what they're really doing."
Lois: "What are you, a fortune cookie?"

I can't wait to see where you go with this. I chuckled at the first part -- it'll be great to see Part 2.

led them straight out onto the beach at the Hampton rather than walk back to the Holiday Inn. This might sound weird, but that's the best Holiday Inn I've ever stayed in. Love Pensacola!!! Also the most beautiful beach I've ever been to.  Definitely in big trouble! I can't wait to read the next part! Love this story so far!

I guess that's cause you are both guys. At first I, too, thought she was saying he was Clark and Superman. Great line!  So they are sharing a room. Are they sharing the bed, too?  Don't you feel like posting part 2 today? Please?  Andreia

Joy,
Lynn Thanks Lynn. Wow, never realised you'd done this. Went to find it and it's great. A short little snippet. Can't believe you specifically did it as a birthday present too. Plus, this was supposed to be my first LnC fic, but I was soo unhappy with how it was going to start with that I kept putting it off, and 2 others came out in the mean time. LOL.

PJ In trouble? Clark? Naaaa. And you want part 2 do you? Originally posted by Marcus Rowland: Yep, that could be a problem - this is why I had my version of Supergirl enter a Supergirl look-alike competition, so that she could say "yes, I look a lot like her, but so did the other sixteen entries" or words to that effect. Awesome idea. I'm actually of the belief that Clark and Superman actually look enough different in normal circumstances that people are going to be no more suspicious than 2 blonde haired friends I had in my teen years that used to borrow each other's ID, but they were not even sisters. Originally posted by VirginiaR: Clark's in trouble now. How is going to wear that shirt without giving anything away? He could wear it to bed as a pajama shirt, maybe.

Thanks. Yes, Lois really thinks he should be supporting his best friend much better in the logo/merchandise department. I had to read that line twice to get the other meaning. At first, I thought Lois was saying Clark was both CK and SM Thanks for joining in on the Exotic Locale Challenge too. [/QB] You haven't seen all the flashbacks yet. Ooh, and another one who wants part 2 ...

Clark wearing a tight Superman T-shirt (oh, you just know that Lois would have bought him a tight-fitting shirt!)... could be trouble! Looking forward to the next part!

Looking forward to the next part! Lois:It is not my fault that they did not have any bigger ones than the one I ordered. Well, OK, maybe I did suggest to my friend Joe Malloy that he should buy all his teammates on the west coast football team he plays with Superman shirts, but I really did get Clark the largest shirt then in stock.

this is a very fun story. Lois and Clark are sharing a hotel room, again. Interesting. I have to admit I totally did not see another possible meaning to Lois's "you are both guys" line. That they are both males was the only way I saw it. Well, this is a really fun story. Hmm, better go read part 2.

Looking forward to the next part! Yup. Of course it is going to be tight fitting!!! Wouldn't be half as much fun otherwise. Originally posted by John Lambert:

LOL. I see where your mind went then. ![[Linked Image]](http://cosgan.de/images/midi/konfus/c085.gif) Aww, are you disappointed now? Nah, that’s okay  Expenses submitted by Lois Lane: Travel expenses to NY - $2.00 coffee. Travel expenses to Washington - $5.00 coffee and doughnut.

Lois: "I flew. But I said I didn't go by 'plane'" Michael

I am loving this story so far--so glad part two and three are already posted .... I guess that's cause you are both guys. I only saw it as they were both males also when I first read it... Panic set in immediately. His hair, plastered down against his head and without his glasses, was sure to give the game away. He dropped the luggage in an attempt to stop her but it was too late. He was soon relieved to see that she was more concerned with finding a dry spot on the hem of her jacket to wipe his lenses with, than what he looked like without them. His heart beat wildly as he waited for her to notice. He ran his hands through his hair to ruffle it up, distancing his current look as far as was possible from Superman. He then resolved to just take his chances and he simply stood there waiting. Almost got caught there! Creative scene to get Clark's blood pressure on the rise...great idea! Clark nearly jumped in shock. He gulped, turned away from the enticing sight of the woman he loved and then stood, reaching for his towel. As he strode across the room he noticed Lois taking off her robe. When his peripheral vision caught sight of bright blue and a familiar symbol in red and yellow he turned in surprise. She tried to hide what she was wearing by climbing under the covers as quickly as possible, but it was too late, he had seen her.
He turned to her and chuckled. "Lois!" he said, “I can’t believe it! Superman pyjamas?” Loved how you had her in the Superman pjs, like she was wearing first season...sets up her gift to Clark in a creative way! Love the concept of the story--getting them to a beach, to a hotel room (together), gift giving, Clark sweating it and on edge is always fun, a bit of romance...Awesome!!! And off to part 2 I go
"Where's Clark?" "Right here."
...two simple sentences--with so much meaning.
