I have replies in 3 different threads right now, which is strange smile I didn't know where to reply, but I thought it would be best here.

Thank you everyone for your kind words, it's very very appreciated!! smile1 Thanks for reading this story (my first attempt at a vignette)

Nancy, sorry for the thread confusion, I really appreciated your comments. Everything you said was so sweet. blush I'm not sure that other writers haven't explored similar variations of that idea at some point, but thank you for making me feel that mine was different and unique. I agree that it definitely was simple. Simple idea, simple to write, simple even to imagine (although Clark letting go of his Lois Lane love and fixation??? Might not be all that likely... but fun nonetheless, as pulling Lois to her senses can often be!)

So thanks everyone laugh
