Who: Clark and Lois
What: explaining things
When: now
Where: Lois' flat in London

Lois was, admittedly, nervous. She paced back and forth in her apartment, racking her brain to figure out how to tell Clark everything. It was almost easier being the recipient of this kind of news than sharing it.

She was wondering where to start and how to phrase everything about their world being fiction here, under an alias, and that she knew his identity, and a hundred other things. Lois finally stopped pacing to pour herself a cup of coffee, trying to calm her nerves until Clark arrived. She hoped he understood the portkeys, but he could always fly over the Atlantic almost as fast if portkeys didn't work.

Clark did, after getting lost, purposefully, three times, and finding himself in Tokyo, and Sydney, and also someplace that looked like Bonn, manage to portkey to London, and find himself almost lost looking for her address. Of course he was actually watching her the whole time, now and then, and hoping she was okay.

He had no clue what to say as he knocked on her door. A whole new world, and one with trouble already...

Lois nearly jumped at the knock, her coffee splashing up the sides of the mug. It was nearly gone since Clark had taken so long to get here. She reminded herself that Clark still felt obligated to keep up the pretense with her.

She was at the door in no time, and took a deep breath before opening it. Lois put on a smile. She was glad to see him, but also far too nervous for that not to show. "Clark, hi," she smiled widely. "You want to come in?"

	He smiled, eyebrows up, curious. "Ah, yes, please, Lois. It's kind of drafty out here. Winds from the North and all that." He offered her a wry smile. "You look... ah, nice." He nodded. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lois couldn't help but grin fondly at his demeanor. She'd missed him, a lot. Lois stepped aside so he could enter. "Did you get lost on the way here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well, you know me, Lois, sometimes, I lose my way between the doors." He handed her a pair of tickets to a Japanese baseball game, a pendant with a miniscule diamond from Sydney on it, and a German post card. "I did manage to get you something on the way?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lois took the items he handed her, mouth hanging slightly open. "Clark..." She laughed a little, though it wasn't in a mean-spirited way, she loved how he did these sorts of things. "It's been... awhile. I've missed you," she said, a little more serious now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He gave her a lop-sided smile. "You know me, just trying to not let anything be a waste." He cocked his head, watching her. "Well, I, ah, just came from seeing you, but, it's nice to see you, too, Lois." His eyes narrowed, for a second. She still seemed nervous. Something was going on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lois tried to remember how long it'd been since she'd seen Clark. Too long. "First things first. What's... what's the last thing you remember? From home?" Lois asked, setting the things down on the table by the door. "And do you want anything to drink? I have fresh coffee." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	""Ah, well, there was an outbreak of crime in Suicide Slum, and there was the aftermath, still of Lex's latest scheme." He smiled at her. "Why, ah what do you remember, Lois?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He touched her face, eyes showing his thanks and a sorrow that did not leave. She forgave him, but he did not yet forgive himself. "The same as before, kiss you. The effect is caused by a special chemical released in the mouth... and most Earth science would not work to explain it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
