FDK: Ten Years in the Making 9/? - 10/27/07 10:30 PM
Yea! I'm glad you're back...for an installment anyway. It's okay that you're busy. I understand how real life takes us over like some parasitic being sometimes. So, the have reached a silent truce. now they can start healing each other. Clark is starting to see how much Lois care{d} for him and realizes how much he had to have hurt her with his 10 year death. Though they have reached a silent truce, Lois is still not totally ready to allow Clark all the way back into her life, but she's working on it. Actually she's working more to not let him in because it is so easy to just fall back into their comfortable place. The heat vision was like an ice breaker but then Lois and Clark fund themselves in a place that they had both been pretending didn't exist...seeing their future in each others eyes. I'm very curious to see how soon before they stop dancing around their feelings. And this time it wasn't Jimmy. It was Martha!
Nicely done!

Clark and Lois sat in silence for a moment holding hands and smiling at each other softly. They both knew this was a pivotal moment in their relationship, although neither was really sure where it was leading them.

Lois’ eyes clouded over for a minute as she remembered how scary that had been. She moved to place a hand on Clark’s leg to remind herself that he was here and gasped. “That was you!” she exclaimed.
“Of course it was me, Lois. Who else would it be?” Clark laughed.
“But I thought…” Lois found herself at a loss for words and moved closer to Clark, wrapping her arms around him tightly.
For a moment, neither of them said anything. Clark was holding his breath not sure what had happened, but sure that if he moved at all Lois would remember where she was and quickly extricate herself from his grasp.
“That day. It was you, Clark,” she whispered into his chest. “You could have died.”
Clark did not say anything, just ran his hands very lightly over her back, trying to calm her.

She pulled back, putting her arms around herself. It did not offer the comfort Clark did, but she was not ready for that yet.

Lois shoved harder yet and this time landed on top of Clark. Clark went to raise himself up just as he realized what had happened. Leaning with his head only a few inches off the bed, he stopped still afraid to breath.
Lois was looking at him giggling, but when she caught sight of the look in his eyes, her laughter died on her lips.
Neither said anything for a moment, just lay in place watching each other.
“Lois?” Martha called from the kitchen. “Where do you keep your sugar?”
Lois did not reply and they sat in silence for another moment. Then simultaneously they both moved away from each other.
