Hi Sue! wave there's a good reason I haven't commented for several parts; it's because I'm busy reading! But now I'm almost caught up and I'll have wait impatiently like everyone else.

I have a feeling Clark is going to have to call in Lois's offer to have his back once the whole truth comes out. Maybe he can remind her that he's not asking her to knock over a liquor store--just to forgive him for lying to her. Hopefully by that point she'll be so grateful that he's not dead from Kryptonite poisoning that she'll be willing to overlook that particular fault. :-)

This *is* my happily ever after.
