He stood there watching tears flowing down her face. Oh, how he longed to hold her, to take her pain away, but he stood there, just watching. He finally built up enough courage and walked the five yards to her. It took all he had not to run as fast as he could to her side. After what seemed like an eternity, he stood a mere six inches from her. Even with tear stains on her cheeks, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. He wrapped his muscular arms around her and pulled her closer. She tried to pull away, but he held tighter. She quickly gave up the fight and settled into his warm embrace. His heart warmed when she wrapped her arms around his waist. He could feel her wet tears soaking into his shirt, but he didn't care.
It seemed like mere seconds later that she pulled away, and he let her. Neither taking their hands from their respected places on the other body, they looked into each other's eyes. Both feeling the same urge, and neither fighting it, he bent his head down, and she stood on her tiptoes. Four eyes closed and four lips met in a passionate kiss. Tongues wrestled as they took in the sweet taste of the other. He could taste the salt from her tears. At last they broke apart and once again their eyes locked. She broke the silence first. "Clark, I love you." He smiled. His broken heart had been mended, and now it was his turn to fix hers. "I love you too, Lana." She gave him a matching smile. Once again, eyes closed. His head bowed and her heels were lifted off of the ground, as their lips locked. Love washed over the two, and they knew this was forever.
