FDK goes here  . Last post: Wednesday, 10-noon ET PreviewChapter 145 ~*~Lois~*~
Marry him?
I was already married to him.
"I'm already married to you," I said.
"I know." He took my left hand in his. "Where's your wedding band?" he asked, shocked. "Did you take it off when you moved out?"
He looked back up at me and I could see the pain in his eyes. [I know - it's not much but...] Thanks . Carol

A marriage proposal? Wow! If this doesn't convince her that he's serious, I don't know what will. Hurry, Lois, tell him YES!!
She had to take off her jewelry to get on the transport, Clark! And she hasn't had a chance to put any of it back on yet. You don't see a watch or a necklace or earrings, do you? Don't be a lunkhead over this! Not now! This would be the world possible time for you to revert!
DON'T DO IT!!! DON'T BACKSLIDE!!!

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww You know, about the preview and the lack of jewelry. I know I'm beating a dead horse, but thinking about the birth control pill and not at least her wedding band does send a message. Unless she didn't think about the pill, too  So, are you going to be a really nice author and post the last part soon? Yes? At noon, perhaps? Pretty please? You know, this just feels unnatural, having only one part posted. And you did ask whether it's two short parts or one long part a day, hmm? Or something along those lines, anyway   Michael

I'm really glad they didn't get too carried away and sleep together yet.
Like I said before, they were relying on hormones, and that's not going to convince Lois he's serious.
And because they BOTH realized it was too soon, Clark doesn't have to face Lois withdrawing from him afterwards.
I liked how Clark explained to Lois why he loved her. (although I would think there would be something about her being a really good reporter as well...Maybe that was something you fixed in the previewous chapters?)
I LOVED the proposal. That was sweet. Now their not getting a divorce, but they can get married for real, when they both mean it.
Assuming she says yes, of course.

Yay! They didn't go through with it!  I must have turned into a Clark hater, cause I still think Lois deserves better, and want Clark to grovel from now till eternity. That doesn't make me insane right? I'm so sorry that this is the way I feel. It's not the writing, just this Clark is such a lunkhead, that the road to recovery (if it's even possible) is a long one for him. See, what this fic has done to me, Carol? I've never been so anti-Clark before, it's actually beginning to worry me. I think we're going to need a whole other OTOHA club created just for me?! grinch

Thanks Oh, and you do know that you not have to deal with this hounding if you'd posted everything on Monday? /Sits tight and twiddles fingers until post appears/ Michael, who is actually contemplating on activating the automatic refresh option in the browser until the fabled final post of OTOH appears.
