Each story has been broken up into 4 parts. Both stories where written *live* on the IRC and have only been edited for typos etc. Edited versions of both stories will eventually be submitted to the Fanfic Archive. Hope you enjoy them.

"Honey--" Lois, not looking at him, rang for the elevator. Clark shoved his hands deep into his pockets and rolled his eyes. "What choice did I have?" Lois stepped into the elevator, and Clark reluctantly followed. It suddenly resembled a refrigerator as Lois lowered the temperature. Then, as always happened, Lois responded, and Clark wondered if the silent treatment was not in fact better. "Choice? We're partners, right?" "Yes, but--" "We're married, right?" "Of course, and I--" "Then please tell me why you took it upon yourself to volunteer *us* to take over that bloated, dull, bigwig soiree when Perry had to back out?" "Wait a minute," Clark said as the doors opened on the lobby. "Weren't you the one telling me that you wanted to make up for all those times you invited people to dinner and then forgot?" "That's different." "Uh huh." He smiled as they passed through the revolving door. "Weren't you upset that you were suffering from ... from, what did you call it?" "MTMS," Lois replied flatly. "Right! Mary Tyler Moore Syndrome," he laughed. Lois, not wanting to, found herself laughing too. "Okay, I guess I did." Clark drew his arm around her waist. "You 'guess'?" "All right, I did, Mr. District Attorney." Lois turned and faced her bemused husband and placed her hands on his chest, "But you have to *promise* to help make this thing come out right." "I promise," he said softly, but still was a bit full of himself. He knew Lois. "You know you thrive on pressure, and you know you want this thing to be a success." "Well--" She shrugged. "I don't want it to be a failure." "You know what I mean. You want this to be a *success*. You want people talking about it. You want this to be the high water mark of parties and--" "Clark, if you stop now, there's a good chance I may still sleep in the same bed with you." Clark laughed. "I think I'd better get to STAR Labs then and see what Klein was so excited about." Lois pulled herself up a bit using Clark's lapels and kissed him. "Okay. It sounded like something that could help ... you know who ... in an emergency." "I hope so," he said, returned the kiss, and they both hurried down opposite sides of the street. Lois pulled out her notepad as soon as she got into her Jeep. She tried to focus on her hurriedly scribbled notes, but in her head she was still replaying the recent scene in Perry's office. She'd been looking forward to *going* to a party ... not *giving* one. Grumbling to herself, she tossed the pad onto the passenger seat and started up the engine. First stop ... the caterers. Perry had promised to have everyone on the guest list notified of the change of venue, so as least she wouldn't have to worry about that. ***** The sign outside the "Metropolitan Catering Emporium and Bowling Alley" made numerous extravagant claims about their services ... most of which Lois doubted. Only Perry, Lois thought with a grimace, would have picked a place like this. The interior was unprepossessing ... and noisy. Eventually Lois was ushered into the manager's office. He was a large man, and Lois found herself wondering if he'd gotten that way from eating his own cooking. It would be an understatement to say that the two of them did not hit it off. Five minutes later, the caterer/bowling alley impresario was out of a job, and Lois was back outside, sitting in her car with her car phone trying to get a list of available caterers. Three hours later, she was in the townhouse and regretting her hasty termination of the catering contract. She'd called *everyone* in the phone book, but they were all already booked for New Year's Eve. Even Ralph's Pagoda. What was she going to do now? Perry was counting on her and all those people would be coming to her house expecting to find food--*lots* of it--and drink--*gallons* of it--and she didn't have a caterer. Then it dawned on her. She had an ace in the hole ... she had super help. The more she thought about it, the better she liked the idea. That would serve Clark right! After all *he* was the one who had been so eager to have the party! Now he had the party and the whole responsibility for the food. Should be no problem for her superhusband, should it? She gave up phoning around and instead started looking forward to telling him the good news. Speaking of telling him...where in heavens name was he? Didn't he mention that he just wanted to go over to STAR Labs? He'd been gone for more than four hours! She turned on the TV, her usual way to find out about the actual location of her husband's doings, but the world seemed to be really quiet today. No explosion or bank alarm or anything like that. Nothing that cried for Superman's help. So where was he? Well, there was nothing she could do about it right now. Maybe she should just concentrate on the big challenge: making this damn party a success. She got the location, she got the guests, and food was Clark's problem now. That left only the beverages. She had no idea how much she had to buy for so many people, but she guessed right, that the friendly guy from the liquor store would be delighted to tell her and she just had to trust him. So she decided to make a final call, after all. And then she would look for her missing husband. Meanwhile at STAR Labs, an excited Dr. Klein had provided Clark with something that looked like a walkman of some sort. Some time back, Dr. Klein had started to work on a device that was supposed to help Superman keep and recharge his energy if he was ever out of the sun too long. His encounter with the Press brothers a while ago had reminded Superman that even his invulnerability had limits. Without sunlight, his superpowers could be cut off. Thus, although a little warily, Superman had agreed to participate in Dr. Klein's recent research project. So far, it hadn't produced anything of use though. Dr. Klein had spent the better part of three hours explaining the technicalities to him. Clark, although fairly well read in physics and other natural sciences, had soon not been able to follow the enthusiastic scientist anymore. Klein was jumping from one idea to another so fast, Clark felt he was trying to catch a grasshopper or cricket in tall grass. His superpowers were of no use there. What it came down to was that the little gadget acted as a "solar energy collector". In the end, when Dr. Klein had returned to Earth from his lofty flight, he had needed just five minutes to explain how to operate it. Not much bigger than a pocket pager, Clark could easily wear it on his belt. He had been sent off with instructions to try and use it and report back to Star Labs the following week--or sooner should problems arise. Clark breathed a sigh of relief when he was finally back out in the street. He liked the good doctor and had come to consider him a friend, but when Klein got enthusiastic and took off soaring, he was amusing, but also a little exasperating. In the end, Clark couldn't help smiling at the thought, though. And it wouldn't be a week till he would see him again, for he remembered seeing Klein's name on the list of invited guests. The thought of the party made him look at his watch. Realizing how much time had elapsed, he decided to get home the fast way. ***** Lois thought she must have worn a permanent path into the floor by the time she heard the familiar *whoosh* and thud of Clark landing. When Clark came downstairs, he braced himself for the tornado that welcomed him. When Lois was going in high gear like this, there was nothing to do but ride out the storm. And Clark did learn that there was no catering service hired after all. Fortunately, when he didn't show up earlier, Lois had had a variety of groceries delivered. In the end, once she had gotten the frustration out of her system, Lois was even able to respond to his gentle teasing, claiming that she had only unhired the caterers because she, too, was eating and wanted to enjoy his cooking--as well as get even with him. Even at superspeed, preparing the food for the reception had taken its time, and it was nearly time for the first guest to arrive when everything was arranged as it should. Thus Clark all but supersped when he hurried upstairs to freshen up and change into the tuxedo that Lois had already laid out for him. He smiled recalling how much she liked seeing him in it, and couldn't help feeling excited at the prospect of seeing her in the new evening dress he had given her for Christmas. Hurrying into the bedroom, he bumped against the sun lamp her mother had given Lois for Christmas. Although she hadn't particularly wanted one, in the end she had tried it out so as not to lie to her mother when answering her repeated questions of how it *felt*. Clark noticed that lamp was still plugged in since it began to hiss and spit in protest when the switch hit the wall. As he zoomed in to assess any possible damage, the lamp suddenly came to life. The bright glare surprised and momentarily blinded him. He lost his balance and stumbled backwards against the bed. He sat down on it somewhat disoriented, which was how Lois found him when she came into the bedroom having heard the noise of the lamp falling over. "Clark, what happened?" she asked. When he didn't respond immediately, she pulled the plug from the socket since the lamp continued to hiss and spit angrily. "Clark, are you all right?" she repeated as she crossed the distance between them. The blinding light gone, Clark blinked, looked at her in a somewhat dazed way for a moment, but then smiled. "Yeah, sure, honey. I'm fine." "Good. You better hurry up and change." "Change...?" Clark looked at her questioningly. "Yeah, the tuxedo. Good thing you didn't sit on it. You barely missed it." "Oh, the tuxedo," Clark said slowly, a smile spreading across his face. "You like to see me in it, don't you?" He reached out and pulled her into an embrace, kissing her deeply.

Just a bit of blue was visible from under the open shirt. She rushed up to him and, wrapping her arms around him, said, just a little too loudly, "Oh, there you are! I'm glad you're feeling better." Clark immediately focused his attention on her, kissing her intently while she fumbled with his shirt buttons. "Hola!" Clark exclaimed. Misinterpreting her attention to his buttons, he swept her off her feet and whisked back up the stairs at slightly more than normal speed. In his current state, opening their bedroom door was more than he could handle while carrying Lois, so Clark pressed her up against the door, kissing her and asking, "So how did that rescue make you feel?" His hips were pressed tightly to hers and one hand was reaching for her zipper while the other was sliding under her skirt and up her thigh. She figured she had about two seconds before any of their guests wandering upstairs in search of a bathroom got the show of a lifetime. She reached behind her for the doorknob and turned it, praying that she remembered enough of her martial arts training. Under the pressure of their combined weights, the door swung open, and they fell inward. Lois twisted and rolled, but Clark's reflexes were abnormally slow--which is to say they were about on par with a normal human male--and he landed heavily on the floor beside her. She kept rolling and was on her feet even as he reached for her, a grin spreading across his face at this new game. For an instant, she was free, but she had about as much chance of staying out of her husband's reach as a snowball had of maintaining a solid state in the devil's domain. Lois glanced around the room desperately--and saw the bathroom door. Inspiration struck. Pressing a hand to her stomach and putting all the day's frustration into her grimace, she held Clark off with one weakly waving hand. "Ohhh," she moaned, "I don't feel so good." Clark had risen to his feet and had his arms out to scoop her into them, but he stopped short at her words. His smile wavered and faded. "You don't?" She wasn't sure that a mere upset stomach would hold him off for long--not in the state he was in, so she decided to up the ante. "I think I'm going to be sick." His forward motion came to a complete stop. At his horrified look, she turned and stumbled into the bathroom. With the door safely closed, she turned on the water in the sink. God, what a mess. Here she was, holed up in the master bathroom, while her amorous spouse waited outside the door and a score of Planet bigwigs wandered around downstairs. If only she could think of an errand that would send Clark away or that would give her an excuse to go downstairs--an excuse that he wouldn't simply ignore. And where was the author of her problems, Dr. Bernard "I love using Superman as a guinea pig" Klein? ****** The party was actually doing quite well, considering that both the host and hostess were inexplicably absent, Dr. Klein noticed as he sidled between two very large men in well-fitting tuxedos. Most of the guests were either pretending that Lois and Clark *weren't* absent (those were the administrators, he guessed), or they were placing bets on what excuse the Kents would use to explain their absence. Since most of the people involved in the latter activity seemed to be younger and wearing less custom-fitted evening clothes, he guessed that they were staff members. Before he was reduced to searching the house room by room, he saw a face he recognized. "Jimmy ... Olsen, isn't it?" Jimmy turned and smiled at Dr. Klein. "Hey, you're with the Lab Rats, aren't you?" The doctor nodded. "Have you seen Lois and Clark?" Jimmy rolled his eyes ceilingward and jerked a thumb toward the stairs. "They went thataway." "Thanks." Dr. Klein patted his shoulder. You could always depend on a fellow biker. Klein noticed the bedroom door was not closed. He craned his head to the side and saw Clark, by himself, sitting on the edge of the bed. "I'm in time. Lois won't kill me." He pushed the door open gently. "Where's your wife, Mr. Kent?" Clark looked up, his expression forlorn. "She's not feeling well, Doctor Klein." "Ah." Klein nodded and rapped on the bathroom door. "Ms. Lane, it's Klein. I might be able to help you feel better." "Thank God," she whispered and opened the door. To her surprise, Clark took her in his arms and swayed gently. It seemed his emotions, whether amorous or sympathetic, were on override. He kissed the top of her head. "You'll be okay, honey." Klein smiled. "She'll be all right, Clark," he said and then turned to Lois. "I just happen to have the pocket edition interositor with me." Clark looked up at Klein. "And that will make her better?" "Trust me." Lois shot a conspiratorial glance at Klein. "So what do I do, doctor?" "Well, Lois, first Clark needs to move a bit back." Clark obediently stepped back and reseated himself on the edge of the bed. Klein removed the interositor and handed it to Lois. She raised her eyebrows questioningly. "All you have to do, Ms. Lane, is turn it on and aim it." "At?" "Oh, well, anywhere skin is exposed. The face would be fine." Lois nodded, turned, and pointed the interositor at Clark and turned it on. Clark began to stand, but sat back down when the dark light poured over his face. He closed his eyes a moment. Klein walked over and shut off the machine and then continued forward to Clark. "How do you feel?" Clark looked at him. "Where'd you come from, Doctor Klein?" Klein shrugged and looked over his shoulder to Lois. "Complete binge blackout. He's all right, but he likely won't remember much of what he did this evening." Clark stood up and groaned, "My head feels like it weighs as much as a battleship." Lois stroked his cheek. "And instant hangover." "Hangover? Was I ... drunk?" "I'm tempted to ask 'does a bear take Reader's Digest in the woods', but I'll just leave it at yes, you were drunk." "But how ... I mean, it can't be possible." Klein sighed. "It seems we still have a bug or two to work out on that energy boost thing, Superman." Clark's heart began to pound. "Lois, did you tell him I'm--?" "No," Klein replied quickly. "I'm afraid you were a bit liberal with your secret ... but don't worry, only I caught it ... by accident ... um, in the kitchen." Clark sat back down, and Lois walked over and put her hand around his shoulder. "It's okay, sweetie. You don't remember what you said to the mayor's wife or Mr. Stern, so it's all for the best." Clark fell back on the bed and covered his eyes. "At least my parents weren't here." He uncovered his eyes slowly. "They weren't, were they?" "No," Lois laughed, "but I can send Martha an e-mail now since we gave her that computer for Christmas." Clark propped himself up on his elbows. "If I'd never met your mother, I'd always wonder where your sadistic streak came from." Klein laughed, but covered his mouth quickly and blushed. Clark turned and looked at the bemused doctor. "I don't suppose there's any way for you to forget all of this too, Dr Klein?" "Frankly, Super ... er, Clark, you and your wife have a problem hiding your affection for each other when you visit me. I see you and her together more often when you're Superman. It may be the only reason your co-workers don't suspect. They see you together as Lois and Clark," he said and folded his arms. "I'm afraid I've suspected as much for quite some time." Clark let out a long sigh. "We're that obvious?" "Only to me," Klein reassured him. "I've gotten to the point I ask technicians and assistants to leave when the two of you are likely to end up together in my lab." Clark smiled and shook his head. "You were protecting the secret, even from us." "You and Ms. Lane are the best friends I have. I'm afraid I'm not much of a social butterfly ... or maybe you hadn't noticed." Lois kissed his cheek. "It's society's loss." Clark smoothed back his hair and straightened his tie. "Well, I guess we'd better go back and face our guests, and I'll apologize if you just point out the people I offended." "Good, I made flashcards." Clark laughed and put his arm around her shoulder. "I really said something offensive to the mayor?" "Not really," Lois soothed. "But she did say you and I would have a beautiful baby." Klein opened the door. "I'm sure she's right. We'll know in a few months anyway--" Klein grimaced at Lois. "Or was that a secret, too?"

They walked along silently for a few moments. Then Lois began to giggle. "What's so funny?" Clark asked. "Oh... nothing." Lois replied still giggling. "Come on." "Well if you must know I never expected Clark Kent, the ultimate Neatnik, Mr. 'I back everything up on floppy disks', to be such a packrat. Where did you get all of that stuff?. It's absolutely amazing!" Clark blushed a little. "I'm *not* a packrat," he said a little defensively. "Those are just souvenirs, that's all." Lois smirked "A brick?!" "That brick was from the Sarah Bernhardt Theatre." "Oh." "Since my first story for the Planet involved it I wanted to have a piece of it. It made it more real somehow. But I forgot that kind of story isn't your cup of tea." "Actually, Clark." Lois replied as she gave him a wistful smile."I liked your story a lot." "You did!?" "Yes, it was very moving... very sweet." They walked a few more steps in silence. "You really liked it?" Lois chuckled lightly. "Yes, Clark. I really, REALLY liked it." She leaned up and kissed him lightly. "It was .... what was the word Jimmy used?....oh yeah, 'smooth'. Kinda like Tennessee whiskey." "Tennessee whiskey?" "Uh huh. Easy to take, but with enough bite to it that it lingers with you for a while." She sighed. "You have a way with words that is so different from anything I've ever written." "How so?" "Well, I'll admit that I love the 'investigative' part of our job. I enjoy the challenge of trying to figure out something. It's like solving a murder mystery." Clark grinned. "We do solve murder mysteries, Lois." "Yes, but we do much more than that, Clark! I just love being in the middle of a great adventure." Clark smiled at her enthusiasm. It was just another thing he loved about her. "No one can say that you don't love your job, Lois." She smiled at him. "Yeah, I love my job." She sobered slightly. "Especially now that you're my partner." Clark was surprised at the depth of honesty that Lois was showing him. He knew that what she had just said wasn't easy for her. "Don't look so surprised, Clark. It's true. We DO make a good team." Clark could barely contain himself. 'She loves me... she likes being my partner... wow...' "I like working with you, too, Lois," was all he could manage to say. "Thank you," she grinned back at him. "But I still think you're a packrat." She poked him in the ribs. "I mean, please, you've got a mountain of ties -- some of which I haven't seen you wear more than once-" "You keep track of my ties?" "Clark, some of your ties are blindingly unforgettable!" "I like my ties," Clark protested. "They do... stand out," Lois admitted. "And what was that stack of books on geckos?" "Research." "Uh-huh. And the pictures of that actress?" "Um... research?" "Try again." "I'd rather have pictures of you," he whispered, leaning down to nuzzle just below her ear. She turned a little into his arms, tilting her head to encourage his nuzzling, stroking his hair. Finally she sighed. "Clark, I've got to get to bed." "Is that an invitation?" he grinned against her neck. "Clark!" Lois pulled away to stare at him in mock-shock. Clark blushed and rolled his shoulders. "Just thought I'd check..." he mumbled. Lois reached up and pressed her lips to his, then grinned against his mouth. "I'm flattered, Clark," she said, pulling away, "but let's take this one step at a time, okay?" "I'm all for one step at a time, Lois," he said and started walking again. "But nothing says they can't be *big* steps." Lois smiled and nudged him with her hip, "And *forward* steps would be nice." "Definitely," Clark said and his voice softened. "I want this to work...us...I --" He stopped and smiled and then tugged Lois back a few paces. Lois frowned, "What are you doing?" "Switch sides. I want you to experience this part of the walk from this side." Lois shook her head, "Walking in front of Neimen's Department Store is some sort of...thrill for you, Clark?" "Trust me," he insisted. Lois sighed. "Must be a Kansas thing." Lois switched sides with Clark and they began walking again. Clark stopped. "Now look in the window." Lois complied. "Okay? Pocketless t-shirts don't seem to thrill me in the same way, Clark." He put his arm around her. "Is that all you see?" She suddenly rested her head against his chest. "I see *us*. A couple." "Yes!" She patted his chest. "Only you could make that romantic," she sighed. "It's romantic because it's us...this..well..whatever it is...I just--" Lois put her fingers on his lips. "I know, Clark. This whole thing makes me high." They began to walk again. "But it scares me a little. You get drunk, it's great, then you get the hangover." Clark crooked his arm around Lois's neck as they turned up her street. "The cure for a hangover is the hair of the dog that bit you." She laughed softly. "You bite?" He walked her up her steps. "Only if you want me to." They stopped at the outer door. They faced each other and Lois put her arms around his shoulders. "I'll let you know." They kissed, and Clark had to glance down once to make sure he was not floating. "Thanks," he said when their lips parted. Lois smiled. "You don't have to thank me for the kiss, it's fully returnable." "I love a woman who keeps receipts," he said and kissed her again. "But I was thanking you for choosing me over Superman and Dan." "Dan wasn't really part of the choice," she shrugged. "And Superman...well, don't tell him, but you look much better in his cape...or out of it." Clark raised his eyebrows. "You really think so?" Lois blushed, "Yes, but remember I feel high right now." "True." Clark tried not to laugh. "But please tell Superman when you see him, that I didn't mean to hurt him." Clark stroked her cheek. "He knows, but I'll tell him." Lois kissed him quickly again. "Goodnight, Clark." "Goodnight, Lois." Clark flew home, with only a slight delay in the sky doing barrel rolls.

His words seemed to have made her think. She was lowering the cape away from his shoulders, and was wearing a contemplative expression. She walked away from him in silence and began to gently lower the cape back into the box. Clark removed the harness and reached for his shirt, acutely conscious of the sudden silence in the room. When she didn't turn to face him again, he walked up behind her and put his hands on her shoulders. "What's wrong, Lois?" He heard her sniff and was instantly remorseful. "Lois, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to--" Lois whirled around. "No, Clark! I'm the one who should be sorry. I come here ... and tell you that that--" Clark didn't wait to hear more. He pulled her into his arms and held her close. "It's all right, Lois. It's all right." He wasn't sure exactly what the problem was, only that she was hurting and he wanted to make the hurt go away. Lois clung to Clark, thankful for his strength and his understanding, and also (because she was a woman, and women are capable of thinking of several things at once) that she was rather glad that he hadn't had time to button his shirt. His bare chest felt so warm and strong and welcoming. She let Clark hold her for a while longer because he seemed to be enjoying it so much, but she knew she would have to come clean at some point, so she forced herself to pull back from him so she could look into his face. "Clark, I hope you didn't think that I wanted you to try on Superman's stuff because I still have a 'thing' for him ... because I don't. I love you, Clark." Clark's heart swelled with happiness and he could feel a confession hovering on his lips, but would now be the best time? Then he thought, how could he not tell her after all she'd just said to him? "Lois, I want to--" Just then he heard his parent's laughter as they entered his building. They would be here any moment. He wouldn't have time now "Want to what?" Lois asked him. "I ... well, I--" Clark looked around desperately. Should he say he needed to check his mail? No, that wouldn't work. It was night, and besides, he'd used that one before. "I want to say that I love you, too, Lois." His parents were nearly at the door, but he was sure there was time for one more kiss. He leaned forward and sighed happily to feel Lois responding to him. God, but she felt wonderful in his arms. ChrisnDor> Clark was slow answering the door. The kiss they shared lingered and grew deeper. It was only when Clark's ear picked up a noise at the lock, that he reluctantly let go of her and moved towards the door. He opened the door quickly--and found himself face to face with Martha, who, picklock in hand, was just ready to have another go at the lock. "Clark! --" "Hi, Mom." Both of them looked startled. "Sorry. We thought you were ... But you're--" "Yes, I'm still here," Clark finished for her. Then suddenly he grinned, reached out and pulled her into an embrace. "Everything's fine, Mom." "I'm glad to hear that, son," Jonathan's voice boomed from behind her. Quickly, the three of them were engaged in a threefold hug. After some more hugs and back slapping, Martha disentangled herself and began to move towards the door. "Well, let's ..." Looking at Clark, she suddenly noticed his attire and, standing on tiptoe as unobtrusively as possible, peeked over his shoulder. Lois by then had approached the steps leading up to the doorway. Curiosity won the better of her, and she quickly skipped up the steps to stand behind Clark. "Hi, Martha." "Hi, Lois." Martha found herself looking from Clark's open shirt to Lois's slightly disarranged hair and back again. She blushed and quickly stepped back, putting her arm around Jonathan. Her gaze had not gone unnoticed, however. Clark's face had turned a rather healthy color as well as he started to fumble with his shirt buttons. "Oh, Mom... won't you come in? Lois just stopped by, and ..." He ran a hand through his hair. "And ... it's..." "And ..." Martha paused, again looking from Lois to Clark and back again, deliberately though this time, "...it's really warm tonight, isn't it, Clark?" She had a hard time keeping a straight face by now. "But we really can't stay. Your father and I just came back to tell you we were going to the theater tonight. Didn't we, Jon?" "Yeah, that's right, son." Jonathan cleared his throat. "And it'll get late," Martha chimed in again. "So we thought we'd just pick up our stuff before so that we don't ... disturb your beauty sleep." "Are you sure?" Clark couldn't help notice that his mother was holding on to his father for support by now. "Yes, we are," Jonathan answered for them. "All right, then let me lend you a hand." It was with great relief that Clark stepped back into his apartment, quickly collecting Martha's and Jonathan's baggage. After several minutes of heartfelt hugs and kisses and a few words of Martha's whispered encouragement into his ears, the older Kents got into a cab and drove off into the night. Clark shut the door and turned to Lois. "Now where were we?" Lois grinned and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him close. "Here, I think." Clark sighed and kissed her gently. She responded for a moment, but then pulled back. "You know what I would like to do?" "I know what I'd like to do," he replied with a smirk. Lois slapped him on the chest. "Not yet, you don't," she laughed. She turned serious. "What I'd really like to do is go out on a date with no interruptions. Do you think we could manage that? We could go somewhere neutral and talk. I don't know about you, but I think I need some time to get used to this." Clark nodded. "So do I, but I wouldn't mind getting used to this part either." He bent his head and gave her a kiss that made her toes curl. "Mmmm. neither would I," Lois sighed, after coming up for air, "but we do need to talk." Clark released her reluctantly. "You're right. Where do you want to go?" "I was thinking of maybe a walk in the park, but let's finish getting you unpacked first. That way I'll know you're really staying." When the last box was unpacked and put away Clark turned to Lois. He saw her stifle a yawn. "Are you still up for that walk?" Lois looked up at Clark. "I'm not that tired." She yawned again. "How about if you walk me home? We can talk on the way." "Sure." Clark took her hand and steered her to the door. As her fingers entwined with his, he couldn't help but feel warm and fuzzy all over.

He could not remember feeling so heartsick. This wasn't like Lois almost marrying Lex, no, not even close. Lois didn't love Lex, was in love with Superman and only loved Clark as a friend. But lately, the past few weeks. He stared at the television and sighed. The past few weeks Superman had gotten in the way of a relationship that was starting to look like 'forever'. The man of steel, a creation who would give him a normal life, was ripping normalcy to shreds. Then Scardino showed up. Not a bad guy...well...not for a shark with legs anyway. Clark sighed again. How could he blame Lois for being attracted to a guy who actually let her finish a sentence. The images on the screen seemed to mock him. Even the animal kingdom was having a better love life than he was at the moment. He stared at his phone. Lois had already dumped him as Superman earlier that day. Sweetly and with tears, but dumping is dumping. She said there was someone who needed her, she just had to figure out how to get *him* to see that. "Yeah right," Clark whispered bitterly. "Like Scardino needs a seeing-eye dog." Clark picked up the phone and dialed Lois's number. He let it ring 26 times. He set the receiver back in the cradle and folded his hands under his chin and looked at the screen again. The narrator droned on about how animals were like 'us' and capable of sharing, forgiveness, etc. Then there was a knock at the door. Clark couldn't remember the pull of gravity being so strong. It seemed an effort to rise from the sofa and ascend the few steps to his door. Even before he opened the door, he could see it was Lois. His heart pounded. He would pay any price not to hear what he was certain she was going to say. He opened the door. "Hi." She looked up at him. "Hi." It was all so awkward. She glanced in the apartment and noticed the boxes strewn about everywhere, "Planning a yard sale?" Clark blinked, he couldn't focus. Lois apologized, "I'm sorry, my therapist says, yeah, can you believe it, I have a therapist. She says it's a form of distancing when I say things like that. It all relates back to some boring childhood trauma...can I come in?" Clark blinked again. Snapped from a trance of just watching her. Hoping it wouldn't be the last time, but fearing it would be. "Sure," he said and stepped back as she walked in. She seemed distracted, nervous. Yep, she was going to deliver the 'kiss off' speech. Without hesitation she launched into what seemed to be something she'd been practicing. Something she wanted to say properly, but still finding the words difficult. "I told Superman I just wanted to be friends." Clark closed his eyes. 'Here it comes'. "And Dan and I.." That was all! He couldn't take it. "Lois, if you came here to tell me that you and Dan--" "We won't be seeing each other anymore," she said quickly. Clark stood, his expression somewhere frozen between the anger he had felt a moment ago, and the stunned expression as realization slowly but surely burrowed through his head. All events were suddenly being cataloged at super speed...'I just need to get *him* to see that.' Oh God, I'm the one who needs the seeing-eye dog. Lois glanced around. "Wait a minute, this isn't vacation packing, this is forever packing." Clark was busted. He was still too stunned to deal with anything beyond what his 'discovery.' Or maybe 'deciphering' of Lois was a better term. "I was thinking of moving, but now I'm not so sure..." "Were you just going to leave? Send me a postcard from...I'm distancing again. I'm sorry," she said, her voice cracking slightly. "I didn't expect this...you leaving." "Well," Clark said, still trying to focus. "You and I haven't exactly been getting along lately. It's my fault, and I should tell you--" "You're right, it's your fault," she said, sounding much like she was entering lecture-mode, but then, to Clark's surprise, added, "and it's my fault." She began to pace back and forth as she spoke. "We work too much. We get distracted and fight about silly things and all because we're hiding from each other," she said, and then turned to face him. "And I'm *sick* of it. Then her voice became very soft, almost pleading, "The only reason to hide is because we're scared." Clark frowned slightly, "Of what?" "Of the fact that we're partners, and best friends, and this--" Clark watched Lois as if in a dream, because only in a dream would Lois interrupt a lecture with a kiss. He felt her warm mouth seal around his, and put his arms around her with what little conscious thought he maintained at this point. He could scarcely breathe. His pulse was thundering in his ears. His face was burning. Lois's slender cool hands were at the side of his head, holding him to her. Just as suddenly she broke the kiss. Clark felt he might collapse. Her mouth stayed inches from his as she whispered, "Clark, if you're going to run away from this, tell me now." Clark, his eyes glazed, managed enough air to say, "I'm not going to run, Lois. I'm ready to take the next step...if you are." Lois smiled, ever so slightly. She draped her arms around him and melted into another kiss. Clark felt his blood rushing and his head spinning. She was there, she was back, she was in his arms! He wanted to lose himself and all the pain of the past few days in this kiss but he had to force what maintained from his control on keeping himself from crushing her in his embrace too forcefully. God, how much he loved her and how much he had missed her! He had told himself over and over again that leaving her would be the best for her and that *he* had to be happy if she was, but the moment she put her arms around his neck and he hungrily responded to her kiss, he knew that there was no way he could be happy without her. Never, never, never. Lois moaned softly. It was a happy, content, little sound and it made Clark smile. Lois felt the slight movement of his lips and reluctantly opened her eyes. She found herself staring in his warm, brown, eyes. Those eyes which had looked so sad and torn only minutes before which had now an expression of pure happiness. Clark shook his head as if he couldn't believe this was actually happening. "I'm not dreaming, Lois, am I?" he said. "No you're not," Lois answered softly. She felt something warm and wonderful open up in her soul. As if finally all the confusion and bitterness that had tied it up all the time was gone. She felt like singing and dancing but she remained still and instead just looked up into his happy eyes and gave into the feeling of silent delight and relief. Dr. Friskin had been right. It had been so easy. Clark pulled her closer and pressed his forehead to hers and gave her a face- splitting grin. "Good," he said with a chuckle. Then he pulled her close and pressed his lips to hers for another long, slow deep kiss. The kiss ended and they clung to each other silently, enjoying their closeness. Finally after a few minutes, Clark broke the silence. "So what do you want to do now?" "Well I'm sure my therapist would say that at a moment like this we should talk seriously about our relationship and where its going." Clark looked at Lois warily. "But of course I'm more of a do-er than a talker." "So what would you like to do?" "Unpack your stuff." "What?!" "Clark, you're staying right?" Clark nodded affirmatively. "Well, I'll just feel more comfortable about everything when this room doesn't look like you're planning to skip out on your landlord *and* me. And you do want me to be comfortable don't you?" she teased. Clark grinned and nodded. "Great," Lois replied. "Where do we start?"

Clark held his breath -- if that was the box with the capes- Lois reached into the box and pulled out an armful of clothing. Clark tried not to wheeze with relief. "Oh, hold on there," he gasped, whisking a dangling item from her fingertips. "I think you've got more than you can handle!" She glanced at the piece she had almost dropped, and grinned impishly. "Well, that settles one question," she commented, heading for the bedroom. Clark stared at the briefs in his hand and shook his head. 'I don't even want to know!' The minute Lois was out of sight, Clark scanned the boxes and located the one with his supersuits. He picked it up, just as she walked back into the room. "What's in that one?" she asked. "More clothes." "Okay, well, give it here and you can..." she gestured vaguely towards the other boxes. "Um-m-m..." He groped frantically for a way out. "Ah, Lois, why don't I unpack the rest of my clothes and *you* tackle the, uh..." He gestured with his head towards the boxes. "Oh, right, leave the big stuff to me, thanks a lot!" "It's just this is kind of personal stuff," he tried. "Clark, I just unpacked a box of your underwear, you have something more personal than that?" Clark swallowed. Some men dug themselves into holes with a shovel, but not Clark Kent, he had a backhoe. Then, a flicker of inspiration. "Well, Lois, remember the whole Diana Stride thing? Superman leaves his suits here, well--" "His outfits? You were going to skip town with *the* suits?" "No, no of course not, I was..going to mail this package to you. I always felt...well, like Superman belonged to you..in a way. Lois softened, "Okay, I forgive you, but...could..I just see one..up close?" Clark smiled. In the back of his mind, the thought that he would have to tell her the secret soon made this 'sharing' all the better. He opened the box and handed her one of the costumes. "Wow," she whispered. "I never knew it was so..complicated." Clark raised his eyebrows, "Complicated?" The tunic, and...ooh, he has..well...I guess I never thought of him...I mean I did *think* of him...but this--" "Lois, please just *say* it." Lois blushed and put her hand through the 'access' way that would normally be hidden by the external red briefs. "He has a...to..um...I guess use the.." Clark grinned, "He's a *man*, Lois, if that's what you're driving at." "Of course he's a man," Lois laughed, but in that manner that indicated she had no idea what she was really talking about. Clark loved that about her. He loved everything about her. "Seen enough?" Lois looked up from the costume guiltily. "What's that supposed to mean?" "The suit, Lois. Have you seen enough of the suit?" "Yes," she said trying to sound nonchalant. "I've seen enough. What about the cape? It wasn't attached, I mean I thought it would be attached." "Well the cape is kind of an interesting thing," Clark said as he removed one from the box. "It attaches to a harness under the tunic. To keep the cape from pulling it out of shape." Lois folded her arms. "Show me." Clark chewed his lip. "Well this outfit isn't exactly designed for Clark Kent, Lois, I wouldn't want to disappoint you." "I'm not expecting Tom Cruise, I just want to see how the thing fits." Clark sighed loudly and pulled the harness from the box and started to put it on. Lois held up her hand, "No, not over the shirt." "Lois, I am *not* going to put on one of Superman's shirts." Lois tugged back and forth on the long sleeve of Clark's black shirt. "Just take this off." Clark's mouth went dry. "Off? My shirt?" "Was that sentence Pennsyvania Dutch? *Yes* take off the shirt." Clark looked firmly at her, but her arms were crossed, he'd lose this battle. "Okay," he sighed and began unbuttoning his shirt. He pulled it off casually and tossed it on the sofa. Lois made some noise in her throat that Clark couldn't identify. He shrugged and strapped on the harness. "Satisfied?" "Oh yeah," she said breathlessly. Lois pulled a cape from the box. She rubbed it against his arm. "And how does this attach?" Clark felt his heart pounding would set off car alarms in the street. "Dra..drape it over my shoulders." Lois drew the fabric slowly up over his muscular back. Clark could feel his face growing red as his pulse grew more and more rapid. He could hardly believe this was happening. Barely fifteen minutes ago he'd been thinking everything was over between him and Lois and now ... now she was ... He wasn't sure how much of this he could stand. He'd dreamed of sharing moments like this with Lois. But was this the right time? After all, they'd only had one date ... Things didn't move this fast in Smallville, that's for sure. Lois had pulled the cape up onto his shoulders and was moving around to face him, holding the ends of the fabric in her fingers. Clark knew he needed to stop this, for both their sakes. Lois seemed to be particularly vulnerable right now, not to mention that he wasn't sure if now would be the best time for her to find out his secret. Of course, his parents would be thrilled for him when they learned that he and Lois were-- His parents! Oh, god! They could be back at any time. "Lois!" he said more sharply than he'd intended. She looked up in surprise. "What? Is the harness hurting you?" "Yes. No. I mean-- I mean ... what if Superman comes back and finds you ... me ... us doing this. Didn't you say that you'd told Superman there was someone else? Wouldn't he think it odd to see you dressing me in his costume?" Lois looked around quickly, as if expecting to see the Man of Steel flying into the room. "Does he come here a lot?"

She blushed. "Yeah, of course, I do--" The doorbell interrupted her. "I like that dress you're wearing, too," Clark began, playfully reaching around and pulling the zipper down just a little. "But I like what's in it even..." "Clark, please!" She smiled, but had to disentangled herself from his embrace as the doorbell rang again, more insistently this time. Getting up, she looked at him. "Please hurry up. I'll meet you downstairs." "Downstairs...? Here would be fine with me ... but whatever you like best." Lois giggled. "Well, we don't want a reception up here, do we?" With that she was out the door. Several of the guests had arrived by the time Clark finally came downstairs to join her. Lois had begun to feel rather agitated as well as just a little annoyed at being left to her own devices for so long. But seeing Clark standing at the foot of the stairs, hands in his pockets surveying the scene, she felt her resistance melt as their eyes met and locked. Making his way through the crowd, he came over to her and, taking her in his arms--suddenly smacked her butt. "Ow!" Lois rubbed her backside. "What's gotten into you?" "Nothing," he whispered in a gravelly, low tone. "I feel ... great. Really good ... top of the world--" Lois patted his shoulder. "I get the picture. So, let's mingle." Clark pulled her close. "In front of everyone?" Lois shook her head. "Are you sure you're okay?" "I'm better than 'okay', honey. When we get to that mingling thing you'll find out." Lois started to reply, but the mayor walked over. Lois shot Clark a sobering look, though the term might be relative this evening. "Mayor, good to see you," Lois shmoozed. "How's the baby?" "Oh, a treasure, Ms. Lane. Are you and your husband planning a family?" Clark winked. "One day, but for now the practice part is really great." The mayor's eyes widened, but Lois tapped Clark in the stomach with her elbow and faked a laugh. "He's always been such a kidder." She then rubbed her sore elbow. The mayor nodded and laughed politely. "Well, you are such an attractive couple, you'd have a beautiful child." As the mayor droned on, Clark moved up behind Lois and started kissing her neck. Lois bit her lip. "Affectionate tonight, isn't he?" The mayor smiled. "Why, yes, how ... lucky you are. I think I'll be heading back to my own husband." "Mingle, mingle," Clark whispered next to Lois's neck. "Clark, what is the matter with you!" she said, spinning around to face him. "I love how you dance," he said airily. "Please come into the kitchen with me ... *now*" Clark shrugged and followed his wife, but not before Klein grabbed his sleeve. "Nice party, Mr. Kent. "Bernie!" Clark said loudly. "Call me Clark. That guy in tights has said some 'super' things about you." Klein blinked. "I'm flattered." Clark nodded. "I used to be soooo jealous of Superman. My wife was so hung up on him." "Oh, God," Lois whispered. "Um..really?" Klein said and began to perspire slightly. "You *bet* really. The funny thing is, Bernie, I had a little secret Lois didn't know about." "Clark!" Lois called, and everyone turned to look at her. She smiled. "I need your help in the kitchen." Clark gave Lois a lopsided grin. "Sure, sweetie, I'll be right there. I was just chatting with Bernie here...." "I know that, *darling*," Lois said with a tight smile, "but it really is important." Clark shrugged. "Okay, see ya later, Bernie." And he lightly tapped Dr. Klein on the back, nearly propelling him across the room and into the mayor's husband's lap. Lois grabbed Clark by the hand and dragged him into the kitchen. As the door closed behind them she grabbed him by the lapels of his tux. "What is the matter with you?" "Nothing, honey," Clark said as he wrapped his arms around Lois waist. "I feel just fine." With that he began nuzzling Lois's neck and one of his hands began rubbing up and down her spine. Lois groaned. Clark heard Lois's groan and thought she was beginning to respond to him, so he was astounded to hear the groan turn to a growl of exasperation and to feel her small hands pushing him away from her. "Clark!" she hissed at him, her voice verging on anger. "*What* is wrong with you?" The silly smile he'd had on his face all evening reappeared as he reached for her again. "Nothing's wrong with me, sweetie. And," he paused for a moment to look her over appreciatively, "there's certainly nothing wrong with you, either. Come here, gorgeous." Lois retreated to the other side of the cooking island, relieved that none of their guests were there at the moment. There was no telling when they might be interrupted, however, so she needed to get Clark straightened out ... pronto! She raised a reprimanding finger at him and used her sternest tone of voice. "Clark Kent, you behave yourself right now, or--" "Or what?" Clark asked with a grin, following her around the island and entering into the spirit of this game. "Or ... or ..." Lois searched her mind desperately for a deterrent that would have some effect on a guy who could pick up buses and stop tidal waves. "Or, I'll tell your mother on you!" Clark paused, as if thinking about the consequences of her threat. Then he grinned again, immediately seeing the hole in her argument. "But my mom's not here," he reminded her in a sing-song voice. "So that won't work." Lois moved around the island some more. "Clark Kent, I'm not kidding!" Clark followed her, the grin on his face getting wider, and he was starting to giggle. "I'm not kidding either, Lois. Stop trying to run away, and I'll show you." "No, Clark, we have guests." He stopped and looked around. "Where?" "What?" "Where are they? I don't see them." Lois watched in disbelief as her husband opened the broom closet as if to look for the lost guests. This was unreal. If she didn't know better she'd think he was drunk ... or crazy. "See ...? Clark paused for effect, then giggled again. "Nobody there." He then turned and proceeded to open a few more cabinet doors, peeking into the cabinets and giving Lois a wink with each of them. Lois had never known Clark to be affected by alcohol. But she was beginning to wonder. She turned around and got closer to Clark, intending to smell his breath even though she knew he hadn't really had any time to have more than a sip of anything. Clark grinned as she came closer, suddenly whisking her into his arms. "Changed your mind?" he whispered into her ear as he held her tenderly yet securely. "Clark ..." She couldn't smell any alcohol on his breath. Yet he wasn't paying attention to her as he began to systematically rain light kisses on her face, soon focusing his attention on her right ear. Now it was her turn to try and keep from being distracted. He knew exactly which places to touch, and was nibbling away at her with great enthusiasm now. Although she was enjoying the attention, she was also aware that she seemed to be the only one of the two who was conscious of the party in full swing right outside the kitchen door. She knew that even more guests had arrived since the doorbell had rung three times since they went to the kitchen. Fortunately, somebody seemed to have answered the door for them. Clark was not to be distracted, however. He was holding her close to him and kept nibbling her earlobe while his hands had started a single-minded exploration of their own. Lois was trying hard not to respond too much, when suddenly the kitchen door opened and in burst Jimmy Olsen, a little out of breath as usual. "Oh, here you are!" he exclaimed. For once, Lois didn't mind the Jimmy interuptus that much. She smiled at him as she greeted him a little overenthusiastically. "Oh, Jimmy, good to see you!" After a few moments, his presence registered with Clark also. "Hey, Jimbo!" Clark shouted, his mouth still half filled with Lois's ear lobe. Lois winced at Clark's volume so close to her ear. Jimmy blushed a little taking in the scene. "Your timing's bad as usual, though, buddy," Clark said as he continued to nibble. "Well, I'm sorry, guys, but ..." Jimmy was definitely embarrassed. "Mr. Stern just arrived and wants to meet the top reporter team of his Planet. Said something about special honors...." Lois rolled her eyes heavenwards. Lois nodded. "Be right there, Jimmy." The moment Jimmy exited, Lois turned back to Clark. "You have *got* to pull yourself together. Now it's our *jobs*." Clark smiled. "I never noticed how much your eyes sparkle in this light." "Clark, *please* focus." Clark's eyes unglazed for a moment. "Focused. I like that lilac underwear."

"Let's go visit Mr. Stern, and do *not* x-ray anyone else." Clark walked with her to the door. "I only have eyes for you.... Do you know I think of that as 'our song', honey?" "That's nice," she said, took a breath, and opened the door. The assembled guests laughed when Clark quipped, "Bet you didn't think you'd see the Lois and Clark expedition again." Lois tugged her besotted husband over to Franklin Stern, an imposing man whom even Perry approached with caution. "Here are my star reporters." He smiled. Clark reached out his hand to Stern. "Lois is the star, sir. I just hitch my wagon to her," he said, and then winked wickedly. "Every chance I get." "You're too modest, Mr. Kent," Stern said, shaking his hand. "You, after all, got the first exclusive interview with Superman. I'd love to know how you managed that scoop." Clark laughed. "I just gave myself a good talking to." Lois laughed nervously as panic set in. "Clark likes to give himself pep talks." "Well, whatever works, I always say." Clark raised his eyebrows. "'Quota, revenue, or else' is what Perry says you always say." The silence in the room thundered in Lois's ears. After a beat, Stern laughed loudly. "Lord, Kent, Perry must have put you up to this. I heard he had to back out on the party." "Yes," Lois interrupted. "Good old Perry. He just didn't want this evening to go by without some little reminder it was *his* party and *his* idea. I hope this party will be remembered as *his*." Stern chuckled. "My dear, that's very unselfish of you. But I'm sure Perry would want you and Clark to take credit for this extravaganza. The food is fantastic by the way. Who's the caterer?" Clark grinned. "Oh it's just something I ... er ... we whipped up in the kitchen." "Really I had no idea you were so talented in the kitchen, Lois." "She's talented in lots of rooms," Clark interrupted. "Particularly in the bed--" "Clark!" Lois said and quickly placed a hand over his mouth. "Do you smell something burning in the kitchen?" Clark shook his head. "Well, *I* do," Lois said between clenched teeth. "We need to go see about it *now.* We'll be right back, Mr. Stern." And once again Lois dragged Clark out to the kitchen. "Have you lost your mind completely?!" she hissed as the door swing shut. Clark shrugged, but before he could give a response, the kitchen radio crackled with an incoming news bulletin. "This just in. Police report that there is a hostage crisis taking place at the main post office." Lois raised her eyes to heaven and briefly contemplated indulging in a primal scream. A rescue! Of all the wrong times for a rescue, this had to be the wrongest! She pulled Clark to the back door and opened it, then turned to face him. "Clark!" He was looking at her hair and reached a hand up to play with the curls at her right ear. "Hmmm?" "Clark! Did you hear that? Hostage situation ... you have to go." His eyes came back to her face, and she could see how unfocused his gaze was. His condition seemed to be worsening. She shook him. "Clark! Did you hear me?" He blinked a few times with great deliberation and took a deep breath. "Sure. Hostages. Go." Then he looked around the kitchen again. "Where?" "Great Shades of Elvis!" Lois muttered with great emotion. What in the world was going on here? "Clark, you have to go save those people." "I do?" "Yes." She made their hand motion for flying. "You know ... go ... do what you ... do. Super--" She was interrupted by the sound of someone clearing his throat behind her. "Could you use my help?" She turned and looked into the friendly, albeit guilty face of Dr. Klein. Clark broke into a big grin. "Oh, hi, Bernie!" The hostage situation temporarily forgotten, Clark made his way around Lois and eagerly shook the doctor's hand. When he moved to slap his back again, Klein quickly ducked out of the way. Clark, hitting thin air, was off balance momentarily, but quickly steadied himself holding onto the doctor. "Well, you know, the treatment is working. But maybe you need to give Lois here a treatment, too." Klein looked from Lois to Clark and back again. If he assessed the situation correctly, his help was needed ... although he didn't quite know how to help. "Ms. Lane," Klein said, looking from her to Clark again, "I don't think your husband should be out ... in traffic." Clark gave Klein a slow smile. "Thanks, doc. I don't want to be out at all.... Maybe you could ... you know ... prescribe some ... er ... rest?" "Clark ..." Lois didn't know what to make of the situation. Lois tried to assess everything quickly. If there was one repetitive theme with Clark this evening, it was his amorous obsession. "Clark," she whispered. "I think it's so sexy when I hear about you 'saving the day' on the radio." "Really?" "It gets me--" she glanced at Klein and blushed-- "hot." Clark spun into the Superman outfit. "Keep the radio tuned to channel WHOT," he said, now leering more than gazing at her, and then was gone in a blur. Lois wiped the plastered smile from her face and grabbed Klein by the lapels. "What the *hell* did you do to my husband?" Klein grimaced. "I didn't know the *hell* he was your husband until a few minutes ago!" Lois relented and released the shaken (not stirred) doctor. "I'm sorry, Dr. Klein. You've always been a good friend to Superman. It's just that--" Klein nodded sympathetically. "It's always...something." "What happened to him?" "Now that, I'm not sure of. He was fine when he left STAR Labs. I'd created a treatment that would give him a boost if away from the sun and in need of a physical recharge." Lois's pulse began to race. "Would a strong, artificial light source have an adverse effect?" Klein shrugged. "Possibly." "Oh, God. There's a sun lamp my mother sent me." "Sun lamp?" "Yes, Clark seemed to have run afoul of the thing in the bedroom. He may be the man of steel, but Fred Astaire he ain't." "I could run tests." "We don't have time for tests, Dr. Klein! I've got a room full of important people and a husband who just *happens* to be Superman flying while intoxicated!" "I've got an idea, but I'll have to go back to STAR Labs and get what I need." Lois hugged him. "Please hurry. If Clark gets back before you do, he'll be expecting a lot more than just some crab puffs." "On my way!" the doctor shouted. ******** Clark made a less than smooth landing at Metropolis's main post office, taking out a lampost and an mail box before finally stopping in front of Captain Sawyer of the SCU. Dazed but determined, he shook his head and grinned at Captain Sawyer. "How's it going, Maggie? Heard you could use a little help." Sawyer eyed Superman warily. "Well thanks, big guy, we certainly could use some assistance...." "Okie dokie," Clark replied. "But I've got to make this quick. I've got a hot ..." Maggie and her second in command leaned closer and began to listen intently. "... Never mind, I'll just make this quick." He disappeared in a blur and 5 seconds later, the hostage taker was bundled at the SCU commander's feet like a Christmas turkey. Clark grinned once more. "Ta-Ta," he said, and then he streaked off into the night sky. "You know, if I didn't know better, I'd swear he was tipsy," Sgt Turpin said to Maggie Sawyer. "Well, I guess he's allowed to blow off a little steam once in a while. It is New Year's Eve. Besides, are you going to be the one to give him a ticket?" ******* Back at the party, Lois was attempting to play the perfect hostess while covering for the missing Clark with marginal success. It looked like her string of entertainment disasters was going to remain unbroken. Her only hope was that the party would end before the emergency. That hope died when she heard a sudden ==whoosh== at the backdoor. Her next hope was that Superman wouldn't suddenly appear ... in the same condition that Clark had left in. Fortunately, though, it was Clark who came through the doors, not Superman. *Unfortunately,* he was still obviously not himself. How much longer was this going to last? ****** Dr. Klein mumbled to himself as he went through the various cabinets and drawers in his lab. "Let's see, I need this gizmo...and that thingamajig...and where did I put that whatzis? Oh, there it is! Geez! Will you look at that! So *that's* where this whatchamacallit got to!" Eventually, he'd located everything he thought he'd need and was headed for the door, his coat pockets bulging. He'd heard on the lab's radio that Superman had helped corral whoever had created the disturbance at the post office, so he figured that Clark must be back at the party by now. At least...he hoped that's where he was. If he wasn't, Dr. Klein couldn't even begin to imagine how they'd go about finding an AWOL Superman...much less an FWI Superman. ****** Lois looked at the clock again. Could it really be only an hour ago that this party had started? She felt wrung out. She *really* hoped Dr. Klein would get back soon.

List, if you haven't read >this story yet, you must. I get disappointed when I read lots and lots of fanfics that are bubbly all the time and don't seem to have any conflict within the story to make it interesting (although there are heaps of them I absolutely love). It's funny that I saw this post about 'Heaven's Prisoners' (thank goodness it's the fanfic - not that horrible movie) because I was just talking to someone on the phone tonight about L&C fanfic/nfanfic and I was saying how I really enjoy stories that start off with some sort of problem/crisis etc between the characters and through the progression of the story they learn more about each other as they come to resolve the problem. I was explaining that when you get to the climax () it is that much more powerful and emotional, at least for me. So anyway I happened to list off some of the nfanfics that followed this pattern -- Gorn's stories, Sanctuary and Demi's 'Temporary Insanity', 'Remember Now What We Forgot' and, of course, 'Heaven's Prisoners'. Perhaps it's that I like the sexual tension that is created by the anguish and conflict. I've read 'Heaven's Prisoners' quite a few times because I think Demi wrote it in a way that made it easy to get emotionally attached to the characters and the story. She was able to convey to me the tension between them and I liked how she would bring them just a little closer together to give us a taste and then temporarily separate them again. I think this was partly what kept me reading because it gave the story direction. The 'teasing' worked really well. I really must start revising fanfic again. I would love to be able to write a fanfic of my own but I can't get any story ideas together. *sigh* Rochelle folc@uq.net.au -------------------------------------------------------------------- "Love can move you to a place inside your heart, Where you can feel no evil, acceptance is a natural part of life." - Savage Garden "Love Can Move You" ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 12 Jan 1998 10:29:32 -0500 Reply-To: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" Sender: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" From: Kathy Brown Subject: Re: "Heaven's Prisoners" In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19980113003933.00915410@fox.uq.net.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 12:39 AM +1100 1/13/98, Rochelle Harrison wrote: >She was able to convey to me the tension between them and I >liked how she would bring them just a little closer together to give us a >taste and then temporarily separate them again.

Ah, but you see that's what makes the story so good -- if you can hear = the characters' voices in your head, you can keep your story true to the char= acters on the paper (or in our case, the screen ;) I've read too many stories = where I sit here and wonder "Who talks this way? no one talks this way!

What?!?!? What's she talking about?!?' Because I prefer light and humorous for the most part, I tend to think that's all I write. Or should write. Or want to write. Whatever. Then I thought about it and realized she was correct. There is some conflict in there, I simply tend to block out how serious that story got at times. It's just that sometimes the conflict and/or angst sneaks up on one. Or maybe it grows out of the story itself when the writer isn't looking. I do remember actually crying while writing some scenes in that one and honestly wondering if that was a good or bad sign. Maybe that's why I'm dragging my feet with the expanded version. I KNOW that to say what I want to say and have happen, things are really going to get extremely heavy and I don't wanna go there. I really don't.

Ah, but you see that's what makes the story so good -- if you can hear the characters' voices in your head, you can keep your story true to the characters on the paper (or in our case, the screen ;) >> I was one of those who put this story away for weeks. First, I don't like conflict: I am a happy ending person. Second, this story seemed so long, I was frankly intimidated. And Finally, it seemed to be a premise I just couldn't deal with (can't explain that as it will spoil the story...let's just say that the first two paragraphs turned me off). Finally, after seeing so much about it on this site, I gave in and gave it a try. I sat at my computer for two hours, because I was so into it that I couldn't be bothered with hitting "print"! This has got to be one of the best fanfics ever written!!! I am NOT exaggerating. Whatever your reservations, put them aside and give the story a try. I know I am not an authority on fanfic, but as a true fan (and avid reader) I don't want to see anyone miss out on this story. I cried, I laughed, and most of all I FELT the characters through the writing. It was wonderful! Just an opinion.

LOL! I remember being completely blown away by her reaction. I suppose, I was so focused in on Lois' panic attack that poor Clark was left to fend for himself and, for some reason, I had it in my head that he would understand her reaction. You know, he'd recognize the classic 'Leap before she looks' Lane suddenly thinking 'oh, my' and trying to avoid dealing with it until she'd figured out a plan. All of which just goes to prove how no two people will view the same thing the same way. >Kathy (the scene, if you don't remember, is the hayloft scene, when Lois >leaves and Clark wakes up alone.

Not that I'd probably change anything given the same set of circumstances because if I remember correctly I WAS specifically trying to make him a little hurt and slightly miffed to set up a certain trip to a certain place.

Hey FoLCs, Just a quick question that I have been pondering about. I figured maybe some of you could help me figure out the answer. Did Lois and Clark actually work 7 days a week (I know that a newspaper *is* printed 7 days a week) or did they have certain days, such as the weekend off? Does anyone have a clue? I need to know for a fanfic that I am currently working on... though I'm not even sure if a definite answer to this question exists. I don't recall any reference to this topic on the show. If all else fails, I suppose I will have to make up my own answer, but I just wanted to be sure first. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

As far as I know, this has never been addressed on the show. We've seen Lois and Clark working late at night, and being at the DP past business hours (even though a paper like this never would be deserted - e.g. Fly Hard ;)), but they've never specifically addressed regular days off, or what days they work. I would say you could just make up whatever works for your story. Your guess is as good as anyone's. :) Kathy ______________________ Kathy Brown kbrown@toolcity.net KathyB on IRC ______________________ ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 14 Jan 1998 16:24:03 -0500 Reply-To: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" Sender: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" From: Kathy Brown Subject: Re: Sanctuary In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 10:29 AM -0500 1/14/98, Michelle Glenn wrote: >It's probably already been mentioned and I missed it, but what is this >story and who is the author?

Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit There were a couple of times that I can think of that indicated that they didn't work everyday 1. The episode where robbers took over Perry's office and imprisoned everyone in the conference room- no one was supposed to be there, but Clark was doing taxes, Jack was hoping to get to the movies, Perry spring cleaning, etc. 2. No one mentioned Clark needing vacation time to go away for the weekend with Mayson I'll bet there are others, but of course, I can't think of anything. ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 14 Jan 1998 18:31:41 EST Reply-To: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" Sender: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" From: AMCiotola Organization: AOL (http://www.aol.com) Subject: Re: 7 days a week?

It is available through Joyce Fitch at: yooyceef@mcs.com You can only get it if you are over 18 and promise not to distribute it to others without the author's consent. If you meet the requirements, e-mail Joyce and I'ms sure she will be happy to help you. If you don't know, nfic is not quite PG. This story is tastefully done, so that shouldn't bother most people. If you don't like that sort of thing (pretty explicit), don't ask for this story. If you are under 18, e-mail Joyce in a few years . Sorry.

As partners, they might have had the same days off, but that isn't a given. I'm sure they would have the occasional weekend off (maybe even together) but major newspapers are printed 7 days a week, so a regular 5 on, 2 off schedule would be out. Good Luck!

Wow! Two fantatic efforts! Next Step was one of those stories that always makes me smile. I love dating stories, especially the ones set early in the relationship (2nd season). Maybe because we didn't get enough of that on the show - TPTB concentrated on the problems and left us to fill in the "happy" gaps. And I love it when we do. :) 3 Capes was wonderful! Gosh, can't say enough ... just shows that a story doesn't have to be nfic to be very sexy. Of course, wouldn't mind if became an nfic. But seriously, this one was fantastic. Oops, was just going to say that I hope these stories get submitted to the Archive, when they showed up in my mailbox. Great job everyone. Can't wait to get these on-line. Congrats to everyone involved.

It is available through I'm not sure that anyone besides the author should announce where to find a particular nfic. Maybe I'm overreacting ... I've certainly been known to do that. But putting out this information on a public listserv makes me uncomfortable, especially given the sensitive nature of the story. Also, people should keep in mind that not all nfic is distributed through one source. Many authors distribute their own stories, and I would hate for Joyce's mailbox to get filled with requests that she can't help with. She very kindly helps distribute stories for nfic list members ... I don't know how she'd feel about her address being released to the general public. Just my opinion ... but I think we should let the author either answer, or decline to answer, this sort of question.

Since I lost all of my e-mail and my address book, and I never got to read this fic (I *did* get to read "3 Capes to the Wind", good fic BTW), I would like to read it. I can't receive attached files at Juno, but if someone could just forward it to me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks! PS Thanks for all the help with the issue of L&C's work schedule. :) You have all brought up some interesting points. Hope I can decide which way to go in my fic, if worse comes to worse I will just elaborate on the whole issue... this is assuming that I ever actually find the time to *finish* the fic.... I'm workin' on it! :P Genine ~ GemFoLC51@juno.com ~ SuperGeM on mIRC Watch "Lois & Clark : The New Adventures of Superman" on TNT "You fill me with life."
