"I feel so unsure, Clark," Lois said. "I can't risk hurting you again. I can't say that I will stay with you if there is any chance that I will change my mind."
"Are you going to ask me to take you to Metropolis tomorrow?"
She sighed. "I don't know."
"I was wrong to insist that you guarantee this is forever. I was wrong to even ask."
"No, you weren't," Lois said. "I wanted to give you forever."
"I'm not asking for forever now," Clark said earnestly. "I'm asking for tomorrow. I'm asking that you will still be here with me tomorrow night." Tight coils gripped his stomach as he awaited her reply.
"OK," Lois said finally. "I'll still be here tomorrow."
Clark felt the gush of his relief. "Thank you."
It's way past time to again thank my wonderful trio of BRs - Iolanthe, Deja Vu, and Lynn.
Corrina.
