After trying google, and failing miserably, I decided to think about it for a little bit. I knew it sounded like an author I was pretty familiar with. And after checking her most recent story -- Mere's That Honeymoon Feeling .

This one is really easy, but it from a story that I absolutely love laugh .

Quote
Thank God this moment, which was inevitable and always had been,
whether or not he'd ever taken on the persona of Superman, had been
delayed this long. Long enough for him to meet her, to love her, to
have her love him. To have raised a family. To have seen his parents
into their graves contented late into their years.

Thank God he'd had as long as he had as Clark Kent, a man he loved. A
man he loved being. A man he would miss.

But a man whose time was over.

He spun. The cameras rolled. There were shouts and exclamations from
all corners of the ballroom before a profound quiet fell.
