This is definitely my favorite oneshot of all! Muhahaha! YES! He finally popped the damn question! I agree... he missed so many perfect moments, but that one was just as perfect. And Jason calling... if only he knew what they were doing! He would be scarred for life. Lol.

This was great! I liked seeing it all from Clark's POV and, dang, that guy's internal monologue can turn a gal into mush! he he He is so sweet and I love that Lois is going along with the whole wedding thing so fast. Just goes to show that she wants to make up for lost time, too. In BJW I was surprised at how quickly they went from not getting along to suddenly secretly in love and engaged but now I understand perfectly.

I LOVED all the 'goofy' sentimental gifts Clark got her over the years. :melt: How ADORABLE is that!? I would LOVE to have known what gift he had gotten her this year and just what he thinks he is going to get her instead. If I was Lois, and -dangit!- I'm not, I would want the original sappy sentimental gift. You know it has to be good. I wonder if she held onto any of the other gifts? I wonder if the Niagra Falls mug is the one she uses at the office? Could you imagine!? That was the best piece of fluff EVER. I think it was GENIUS coming up with goofy Clark giving her secret hints every year in the form of seemingly tacky gag gifts. ...awesome!

I enjoyed seeing the invites to brunch from both Jason's side (Could he be more blind!?) and Lois and Clark's. It was so sweet how flustered Clark was the whole time. Everyone had to be partialy dressed before he could talk on the phone! :sigh: And him flopping on his stomach on the bed in nothing but jeans to bury his face in the pillows... THANK YOU for the visual. How endearing is that!?

My one piece of contructive critisism is this... Now that the stories are all done it is WONDERFUL to read them ALL. It would be nice if you put in your AN in BJW that there are one shots that can be read after certain chapters to get another POV. Also it's hard to tell in your summaries what oneshot to read first chronologically. I read them a bit jumbled up so I thought I'd mention it. So trivial, I know, but it's hard to find something wrong with your fics. Yes, they are that good. I am shocked as to little you have in reviews. I am so happy I stumbled across your fics. I haven't read any Twilight in DAYS! LOL

Keep writing!! :o)

Hi Alphie,
I just realized I forgot to add my Email in my last review. I'm sorry for the rather pointless double-posting.
I hope you had lovely holidays, and I wish you and your family all the best for the next year!

Hey Alphie,

what do you think about the idea of Lois and Clark having another child (I'd love for Jason to have a baby sister). I realize that Lois is quite old to have any children, but what about this: Her menopause has already begun some time ago, and she therefore thinks it's safe to have sex with Clark without any contraception measures, and well, turns out she's wrong.
Remember Jason's line: "I happen to know what a condom is?" I'd just LOVE to read about his reaction to learning that they're getting an unplanned child again!

{Things that I had once wanted but considered impossible were now suddenly attainable. And I wanted them all.} Go get your reward, boy. You deserve it.

{I should have asked her years ago. I should have made my intentions clear, yet I’d missed the chance and messed things up in the most abominable way.} *nods hard*

{If I’d planned better I would have gathered those things while I was out getting her Christmas decorations. But again, I missed the chance.} Just ask her now. Or if can bring yourself to do it, make that her Christmas present, the ring.


{I had a lifetime of kissing to catch up on, and if I had my way, I’d spend the rest of my life making up for lost time.} Don’t blame you one bit, dude.

{I very nearly asked her a little over an hour ago when she asked me for her Christmas present.} NEARLY?! YOU BUTTHEAD!!

{“Will you marry me?”} *sigh* Who knew four little words could mean so much?

{I started explaining as best as I could without having actually planned it all out.} Ah, desperation.

{“When I made love to you that night, it was like we were married.} Aw…

{I had every intention of being with you forever. To me, in that moment, you became mine. You were my wife. I was your husband.”} Oh goodess, I think I’m about to cry. It’s 10 in the morning! And I know, what’s that got to do with anything, and dangit, I dunno! Maybe it’s too early to be crying? *wipes face*

{“I’m the guy who made love to a woman I said I truly loved and then left her…when she was pregnant.”} How can you hate a guy who just wants to make things right? *hugs him*

{“Clark—” “No, Lois, please let me finish.}Hey, let her say something. It just might be ‘yes’ before anything else.

{What I do regret is that I didn’t marry you. That I didn’t at least ask. That you didn’t know that was what I wanted.”} And it’s a given that you regret the whole amnesia kiss anyway. *sigh* I wonder if anyone can screw up more royally than how he did.

SHE SAID YES!! Which of course, I knew she would, but still!

{And to even assume you are asking me because of Jason is ridiculous.” “It is?”} Well yeah, considering he doesn’t even know what’s been going on the last 12 hours.

{“Yes, because you and I both know that he’s going to go ballistic when we tell him we’re getting married.”} Hmm. Is that ballistic in a good way or a bad way? And just who came up with that term?

{“Say it again,” I begged.} MUFASA! lol Sorry. Back to Clark: *giggle* You sentimental fool.

{“You hear that!” I called out to the world. “She said yes!” “You silly man,” she said, slapping at me.} lol He’s a silly man in love.

{“Für Elise” suddenly blared from the side table, making Lois gasp and bolt upright.}lol One of our house phones is set to that. The other is set to ‘We Wish You a Merry Christmas.’ Hasn’t bothered all year up until now. I’m ready to shoot it.

{To my surprise, Lois reached for the phone.} Woman are you crazy?!

{“If I don’t answer it, he’ll wonder where I am and just call back. Or he might come over here himself to see if I’m all right.”} Crap. Two very valid points.

{“What will you say?” “I don’t know,” she answered honestly, picking up the phone. “It depends on what he wants.”} lol What if he wants Clark?

{“Did I wake you up?”} LOL No, you definitely didn’t…

{we’re worried about you and Clark…} Not you and Dad? Well, that might make her upset wouldn’t it? *bites lip* No more worries!

{“Honey, we wouldn’t. We won’t,” Lois promised. “But you can’t be sure.} Oh she’s definitely sure this time around. *giggle*

{“Jason, really, that isn’t necessary.” “Mom, please.”} lol It would be a great time to hand the phone to Clark. “Hello, Jason.” Disturbing to Jason, yes, but hey… *starts giggling* Jason, like every other child, has finally succeeded in interrupting his parents having sex. WOOHOO!

{“All right. What time?” “About ten o’clock.”} Wait, today? Somehow I missed the date.

{“No, just come with a good attitude. Okay?”} *snort*

{“I’m fine. I’ll see you tomorrow.”} *teasing* Yeah, cuz you’re gonna be in bed all day!

{I gave her a very pointed look. “ ‘Clark and I can be very civil to each other’? Are you kidding me, Lois?”} lol Well just don’t be giving each other googly eyes and grinning at each other and stuff. Dead giveaway. And don’t look too happy! And don’t start arguing about ANYTHING or he’ll think you’re gonna kill each other. Though that would be fun to do on purpose…

{“You didn’t lie to him,” she pointed out. “I did.” “He doesn’t like that either.”} Yeah, cuz heaven knows you’ve already done it enough. But then, really, who enjoys being lied to?

{“It’s probably Jason.”} I wonder if he called Clark’s apartment first.

{“Because… I can’t talk to him… while you’re naked.”} BWAHA!!

{“Good morning, Jason,” I said as cheerfully as I could, trying to cover up for the impending doom I suddenly felt.} *chuckle* Don’t overdo it, bub.

{You’re awfully cheerful this morning.”} *face palm*

{Not now. Things were up earlier.”} ROFL!

{“Oh, you know, that was just my half-naked girlfriend making offhanded comments from the other side of the room.”} HA! Now had he said fiancée (fiancé? I can never remember which) …too specific a word to not be truth.

{“I know, but when you two are alone together for any length of time, things kind of start to get messy.”} Boy, you have no idea how true that is.

{“Yeah, messy,”} “Yeah, sleepy.” Name that quote!

{I just don’t want things to go badly at Christmas this year for Eric’s sake.”} Sounds like something’s gone bad before…

{“Still,” Jason said, not entirely convinced, “will you be here tomorrow around ten?”} Who’s cooking? Jason? I’m hungry.

{I chuckled, knowing that he wouldn’t be asking me to dart off to France for pastries unless Kate insisted.} I want some. I should get out of bed sometime today to eat…

{He paused a moment. “I know.”} Hmm, what’s with the pause, eh?

{“He’s going to kill us for not telling him.”} Maybe, maybe not. Maybe he’ll be like, “What took you so long?” Oh but then, did it ever really occur to him that Lois still had feelings for Clark?

{I headed to the bed and began a slow crawl up to the mess of pillows where I proceeded to flop down on my stomach.} Ooh! Visual!

{I hugged the pillow to me. “Things were fine with you and then a disaster with him. So, I work things out with him only to have everything fall apart with you. Now I’m faced with the miracle of having you back in my life the way I’ve always dreamed and I risk losing Jason again.”} It’s a whole hokey-pokey syndrome.

{he’s mature enough to realize that two people with as much chemistry and attraction as you and I have can’t stay apart forever.”} Not to mention the history.

{She grinned wickedly at me and played with a few strands of my bangs.} *grin* Cute.

{I want a glazed ham and potatoes and gingerbread cookies.} GAH! Food!

{I want all the things that I never thought I could have – like out of a picture book.”} *hugs him* You deserve it, baby.

{“And we can have that,” she said. “Except for the ham. I’ve never liked glazed ham very much. Too sweet.”} *pushes Lois out of the way*

{I don’t know if we’ve ever really talked to him together,} Nope. Just called Superman to come talk to reprimand him ( I guess that’s the word) which only made things worse, blah blah blah blah blah…

{“So, perk up. I want to see the goofy, mild-mannered reporter who secretly saves the world… not Ebenezer Scrooge.”} hehe That’s an interesting image.

{“Did you just bat your eyes at me like some shy schoolgirl?”} LOL!

{“I dare any woman to not turn into a pile of feminine goo at the sight of Superman lying on her bed shirtless telling her that she’s beautiful. Forgive me if I have an occasional girly moment.”} *gives her some dap* I have my moments too.

{“First a cuss word and now you’re talking sexy.” I grinned. “Well, I’m not a saint, you know.”} *stupid grin* Have I said how much I love them?

{“I can’t do this until we decide what we’re going to say to Jason.”} Does he know how to ruin the moment or what? You’ve got all day to figure that out, dufus!

{She groaned and wrapped her fingers around my neck. “Clark!! I could just strangle you sometimes! Will you cut it out already?”} hehe Visuals.

{“But do we go together or one at a time?”} That’s what I was wondering. Either way, if you’re outside together, no kissing! There *is* such a thing as windows and you don’t wanna blow your cover. Having said that, go together and throw them for a loop!

{We shouldn’t show up together, that’s too obvious.} Aww!

{I will go first because I am better at keeping calm in a situation like this than you are.” I gave her a pointed look.} lol Well she is! “Yeah, messy.” Remember that wandering mind? Lol And being overly cheerful?

{It was naïve to think it would go so smoothly,} Probably, but why stress something out over his response, which you can’t control. You won’t know until it happens so enjoy your time with Lois.


{I spent the time with Lois, chatting and looking at photo albums and just being together as I’d always wished we could be. It was so wonderful to be with her and know I could touch her and kiss her any time I wanted, and know that she wanted me to touch her and kiss her. That she wanted to touch and kiss me in return. We talked about everything and nothing, and by the end of the day, Lois did something she hadn’t done in years – she fell asleep before ten o’clock.} *just melts* I wanna film that…

{and took out a piece of card stock} That’s what that’s called?

{Until then, I hope that this gift will serve as a reminder that I will be here for you when you need me.} I wonder what it is.

{I paused before signing the letter, considering what name to use.} Duh! DAD! Love, Dad.

{Come morning we would tell our son that we were going to be married. Until then, everything was perfect.} GAH! I cannot believe you ended it there! Not fair! I mean, I thought you would put it in BJW, but then I (stupidly) assumed you were gonna do it in here, and now I wanna rip my hair out cuz I was right the first time and now I’ve gotta wait even longer! *fake sobs* And I’m hungry, and getting sleepy and I love you for writing this and it wasn’t smutty at all! You did a great job; I love these two.

If this is a one-shot then damn its a good one. I think this was an excellent story and I loved how it ended. I hope to see Clark and Lois together myself in the movies, in the comics its all ready happened. I like to see how you tied this together nicely. Great addition to "Being Jason White" which I hope you update soon as well. Wow, Alphie, you did it again!

I can not say how much I love the stories from Clark's POV. And particularly the part where he told Lois about what he felt all those years apart. Don't get me wrong: I like Jason's POV stories but Clark is the main character for me and I love to read about his feelings and thoughs.

Thanks for this gift and Merry Christmas!
