Ahh, for some reason I thought I had already given FDK on this one. I shall do so now.
"You expect me to believe that you two just followed me to the airport and flew out here on the chance that I was going to be doing something big?" His arms came free so that he could finger-quote the word 'big'.
Obviously he doesn't know Lois Lane very well... lol
There was a sickening thud and the mine fell silent.
:gasp: Did superman just kill someone? ^_~ I see below it was more of an accident than anything as he probably fell in during the struggle. Even if he had I don't think there is much of a moral issue here as he was like any normal human being at the time and had no advantage over the other guys who was obviously going to kill him.
"Then I'll carry you." She tugged on his arm, forcing him to a sitting position.
There are moments when Lois' stubborn streak is really sweet.
It seemed to take forever for them to work their way down the hill. Clark was almost angry with her as he contemplated how to get her to leave him there. She was in slightly better shape and he knew that her efforts to help him were costing her dearly. Each time he brought the subject up she dismissed it.
Gosh Sue you're killing me here. They are just so pathetic and each one of them so stubborn and trying to do what they think is best for the other. I just feel so horrible for them and their predicament. It is an awfully great setup for the revelation though.
"That candy bar, on your desk? When we get home, can I have it?"
I believe you that you had written in before the rest of us commented, this is so something your Lois (and probably the TV series Lois) would say. LOL It still made me guffaw. (Jojo had to pull out a dictionary to make sure this word meant what she remembered as she is trying to find more ways to describe the insane laugher she always has when she reads Sue's stories.)
"I don't think so. I hope not." She didn't dare to tell him that she couldn't take a full breath. There was nothing he could do to help anyway.
Poor girl. I'm actually tearing up a bit for her right now.
"I'm so sorry." He looked almost desperate as his voice dropped to an urgent whisper. "Please, Lois, don't be angry."
Awww Clark. He is worried about Lois, worried about himself, and now he has to be worried about her reaction to the secret. :sniff:
"Please don't hate me," he said softly.
Come on Lois... he's so cute and pathetic right now. How could you hate him? I have a feeling Mad Dog Lane is about to kick in though and she is going to take care of him even more and tell him that she will deal with him later when they are both better. After all... he made it to a hospital with no one knowing he is Superman... so they have to take the suit off. :cackle: Of course... I somehow don't think that process is going to be very sexy what with them both hurting so much. But... I'm sure later on when they have made up they can re-enact the taking off of the suit. ^_~
Great chapter Sue! I'm going to try my best to finish off the FDK for this story since there are only a few more chapters left. But don't be surprised if I don't show up to play quite so much. Real life isn't playing nice at the moment.
So don't think I have stopped coming to play at all though.
I'll be back soon enough to play full time.
