"Yeah, it's really great here, Clark. The food is nice, they even deliver it to the room! And the bathroom is amazing! I'm relaxing in the bath now, and it feels wonderful."

She heard Clark laugh at the other side of the line.

"What are you laughing at?" she asked with a fake tone of hurt in her voice.

"You, Lois," he managed to say after a few moments. "You seem to forget that we spent a few nights together in that room."

A small blush crept up on her cheeks, and Lois shifted the phone to her other ear. "Oh, right." She paused to think about how to approach the subject without making him suspicious. "But about that, Clark..."

"Yes?"

"Well, I just... I was thinking." She hesitated a moment before continuing. "You know how you have a lot of time to consider things when you are alone. Well, I was just doing that in bath here... I realised that..."

"You realised what, Lois?" His gentle voice probed.

"We eh... sort of agreed to take turns on the bed."
