Onions. Relish. She’d insisted that those ingredients were a must on a hot dog. Which meant her breath was probably atrocious. She couldn’t let her first kiss with Clark be with onion and relish breath. It was bad enough that it might be at a Pearl Jam concert.
OMG I'M DYING. That's why she avoided the kiss?? LOL!!! And also LOL at the last sentence, really unfair tho
OMG how did she end up in the mosh pit??? This gave me anxiety!
Her babbling when she explains she doesn't like Pear Jam is adorable and funny.
Great scene!And we have three more chapters... things are looking promising!!
Looking forward to the next one!

It's a good thing I'm alone in my kitchen, cuz I'm grinning at my phone like an idiot right now.
That was so hilarious and perfect. I loved his rescue of her out of the mosh pit and their confession of both hating the band was brilliant.
Can't wait for the next part ^_^

Lol!!! I'm glad you're enjoying it. And we are a bit mean to Pearl Jam, but to be fair, L&C wouldn't love the band ha ha!
I will link the two songs the opening band play (Moist). They are awesome!
Thanks for reading!

Yay! I had to do something with the mosh pit since Jimmy liked it so much and I got lost in a mosh pit once at a Moist concert (the opening band) when I was 15 lol

One of my favourite movies is the 2005 Pride and Prejudice, in which, there's a scene where Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy are dancing, and everyone else in the room fades away. It's just them, dancing to the music.
This made me think of that moment. I can see them in my mind, standing there, the music playing in the background, and no one around them...
Loved Clark rescuing Lois from the mosh pit! Laughing at the onion and relish breath.
Looking forward to the rest of the fic!

The solidness of his body and the fact that he seemed to know exactly how to touch her caused the rest of the setting to drop away, leaving room only for them.

The mosh pit rescue was definitely memorable. Such a fun part. Love this story.

Ha ha! I love Pride and Prejudice as well! Maybe I was subconsciously channelling that...either that, or Buffy and Angel at prom
Thanks! I love the mosh pit rescue too lol

Let me just echo everything already said about this chapter. You definitely knocked it out of the park! Such a fun read. Congrats on creating what turned out to be the perfect date after all.
Re: FDK - Frankly My Dear, I Don't Like Pearl Jam 7/10 - 04/22/22 01:24 PM
David Usher is cute!
These two are having a wonderful time despite being at a concert for a band neither of them likes.

Hi Saras!
awwwww
See? See? /Eyes previous FDK/ well, the Saras did see
Yeah! Hey, and he can’t bring himself to tell her that he likes to dress in tights.
CLARK: ummmmmm…
Yes, he waited for the last minute so he could buy them at a premium. Also…
It was either “I’m Superman” or “I have super fun”.
Their own personal mosh pit!
She was never at a big event like that, was she?
And that’s how Clark learned that Lois’s favorite activity is investigating large scale operations for backroom dealings.
Best make them kissable?
And this would be the obligatory gun runners.
Clark will think that was intentional!
He couldn’t have heards her heartbeat over that noise, could he?
She got banged up worse by the gun running rebels in the Congo. Almost didn’t make it out alive, in fact!
Later…
CLARK: Jimmy, x-nay on the parachute-nay.
Good thing they’re doing it this way around and that Lois has stopped where she did, otherwise there’d also be desire affected.
Oooooohhhhh!
No. In fact he's going to explain to her that he can't be friends or possibly even close coworkers with someone who doesn't appreciate the melodious range and intricate details of their songs.
Yeah, no, not innocent. Though it’s a good thing Clark’s not wearing a kilt to the outing.
LIL’ PULITZER: Mom! Dad! Are you telling me I was made at a Pearl Jam concert? Gaaaaah, that’s so embarrassing! /rushes off to room and slams door/
He’s not living around the corner, is he?
Yep, sounds like she’s inviting him in for “coffee”
This keeps being entertaining? When does the quality drop? /eyes part count/ Oh, I see. Part 11 may present a steep decline in quality

, and then out of the corner of her eye she spotted Clark’s hot dog clutched in his hand. Onions. Relish.

Once out of visual range, she searched through her clutch and was relieved to see she’d thought to bring her breath mints after all

and she couldn’t even bring herself to tell him she didn’t actually like the band he’d paid so much for them to see.

As it was, what kind of foundation did they hope to build if their first date was built around Lois lying to him?

mosh pit. She tried hard to picture him throwing himself at other people with the sole intent on smashing his body into theirs and it caused a giggle to bubble up inside of her.
Quote
She knew he’d gone out of his way to get good seats, but they were awfully close for her poor ears.
Quote
He said something to her, though she couldn’t hear it over the din.
Quote
she found herself distracted by the rest of their set as she leaned into Clark’s body, and he wrapped his arm around her, rubbing her arm ever so softly with his thumb
Quote
Surely Clark wouldn’t be quite so fixated on her once his favourite act took the stage.
Quote
It suddenly occurred to her that she’d had quite a lot of liquids, and that if she wanted to use the restroom before the main act began, now was the time.
Quote
“I’m going to…” she gestured to the door, hoping he understood. For some reason she didn’t want to say ‘I have to pee’ to her partner. What was wrong with her? He nodded, thankfully sparing her the embarrassment, and she told him she would be back in a few moments.
Quote
Thankfully, she had brought it with her in her clutch and she took a moment or so to re-apply it. Pearl Jam could wait.
Quote
She wandered forward trying to get a better look, but with the music so loud and the venue so dark, she had no idea where she was. She decided to turn around and head back out again, when suddenly someone slammed into her, knocking her to the ground hard.
Quote
Fear shot through her as she realised she had somehow managed to stumble into the mosh pit.
Clark will think that was intentional!Quote
Clark making his way to her, a determined look on his face.
Quote
“You’re…you’re bleeding!” he said, touching her chin. “Are you sure you’re okay? Maybe we can find a first aid kit or—”
Quote
She liked being able to look at Clark. She liked being able to hear Clark when he spoke to her,
Quote
“You’d rather not get thrown out of a plane on our next date,” he said, somewhat flustered but with a tone that told her he was very much enjoying her touch. “Got it. No planes.”
CLARK: Jimmy, x-nay on the parachute-nay.
Quote
Feeling a little bolder, she reached up and pressed her hand to his chest, running it gently down the broad planes of his abdomen. He gave a sharp intake of breath, letting her know that she’d had the desired effect. She smiled.
Quote
she allowed herself to say what she’d been thinking all evening. “I don’t want to go back in.”
Quote
“I don’t like Pearl Jam. I mean, I really don’t like them. I only agreed to go to see this concert because you wanted to go so badly and I wanted to go out on a date with you.
Quote
Oh no! Had she ruined their entire night?
Quote
pressing her body against him once more in what was supposed to be an innocent hug.

“I know a good place around the corner,” he started to say. She interrupted him by placing her finger against his lips.
Quote
He stilled immediately and she felt herself smile mischievously.
“Wanna come back to my place for coffee?”
“Wanna come back to my place for coffee?”

That had sounded…really forward, suggestive. Especially because that flirty tone had somehow turned sultry.
