The surprise that followed was nothing new to him. People often found themselves dazed, confused, and out of it completely when Clark first used his abilities around them. It usually made him feel even more awkward than he felt when he discussed having abilities alone, but the burst of amazement from Sookie made him feel a bit less uncomfortable about it than usual. Once he was certain that she was able to stand well enough on her own, Clark let go of the grip he had on her shoulders and smiled.
"I take it that means you're fine then?" His smile brightened, if only for a moment, before he gestured toward the door. "Let's get inside, okay? It's pretty cold out here and you don't have much to keep you warm on." Or much on at all. It really was a good thing that he had thought to wear his jacket.
