AN: This is an alternate character of mine and an alternate Leia of a friends. If you don't like the story or the writing style. Please don't waste my time by telling me that.
He'd been off outside somewhere, thinking about things. She said she'd wait for him, but he'd told her he might be gone for a while.
She was probably still out there waiting.
Leia was stubborn and beautiful and so many other things, and he loved her completely. Now the question was, could he tell her who he was? I mean, he was Clark Kent no doubt, but...would she accept Superman as well? Would she take him for both men? Would she still care about him the same way?
It was a brain breaker.
After a while more, he got up, and headed back to the Bar. Sure enough, she was still outside. He smiled as she stood and walked over to him, placing her hand on his arm. "Are you alright?" she asked. Clark nodded, taking a breath. "That man you saw the other day. The one you said flew by?" A beat. "How well would you recognize his face if you were to see him again?"
She gave him a quizzical look. "I honestly didn't have time to think about it...but I guess I could."
He wrapped his arms around her waist, gently but firmly. "Do you trust me?" Another look. "Humor me." She rolled her eyes slightly, but nodded. "Of course I do, Clark." He smiled. "Close your eyes." he said, softly. Leia raised an eyebrow at him. "You said you trusted me... " That eyebrow arched higher. "Please."
She obliged with a sigh, and his smile grew.
"So when can I open them?" she asked. He gave a small laugh. "I'll tell you. Just..try not to think about anything and hold on." Another sigh. "Alright." She held on to his forearms. They started coming off the ground, and when they were high enough to get a good view...
He took his glasses off, and let them drop to the ground.
"You can open your eyes now, Leia." he whispered. She looked around them and gasped, clinging to him tighter. "Clark, how did you..." she started, looking up at him. He swallowed hard, barely daring to breath as the realization came to her.
Like she was finally seeing him for the first time.
She slapped him hard. "Leia, I..." She shook her head, pulling his down, to look her dead in the eye. "Shut up, Clark." she growled, before kissing him.
He happily obliged.
