Just got it in under your deadline I see
.
I would like to think the series ended in the right place. I almost always like the stories that leave something left to the imagination at the end as this one does.
As usual your characterizations are spot on. Clark wanting to give her the ring before intimacy, Lois having a one-track mind to get him in bed. Lois winning of course! I also liked the way you filled in the end of the last story with mental flashbacks in the beginning of this one. The previous story left a lot of unanswered questions and you answered most of them here. The only criticism I could put forth is that I wanted Clark to tell Lois that he loved her. She told him a couple of times(once in mental flashback and once real time) but he chose to demonstrate instead of telling her. As unsure as she is of relationships it might have been better for him to tell her and then demonstrate...
The only real drawback to this story though is that it is the last one
