Chapter 4
Two weeks ago Clark returned to the Watchtower. His schedule prevented Diana from seeing him. When they were both on the Watchtower at the same time, he ignored her. He has not spoken more than two words to her this entire time. She understood. It was killing him, he betrayed his vows to be with her and now he can't bear seeing her. Diana knew he would be like this, but the reality of it was heartbreaking. The rest of the team knows that something happened. They know they are not speaking. Diana thinks Batman can guess, but she has carefully avoided seeing him. She knows that the distance between them is creating problems on the team.
She needed to talk to J'onn. She started feeling funny last week. She is constantly tired, she doesn't feel like her normal self. Something is wrong with her, her reaction time is off, she is moving slower than usual. Diana searches for J'onn.
She finds him speaking to Clark outside the medical bay. She stops. She really needs to see J'onn, but Clark has made it abundantly clear, he wants nothing to do with her. He has gone as far as moving his room to a different level. Diana patiently waits for their conversation to end. She knows Clark knows she is behind him. There once was a time when he would have turned to her and given her his full attention. Now, he ignored her until their conversation was over. He then turned around and walked past her without even looking at her.
Diana smoothly walked to J'onn. "J'onn, something's wrong, I need your help."
J'onn saw Superman stop at the end of the corridor when he heard Diana's words, just for a second. He "heard" him wrestling with himself in his mind. He then continued on his path.
"Okay, come with me." J'onn took Diana to one of the "Superman" rooms. They had a room built just for Superman. If he was ever injured seriously, the room was built so that he couldn't hear noises on the outside to disturb him, and it was lead lined, so he couldn't see through the walls. It was a safe place for him to heal. Now it served a different purpose. This time the room would keep Superman from hearing their conversation and he would be unable to see what was going on as well. Though J'onn doubted that Clark would try to listen at this point.
