Chapter 6
Clark watched Diana leave the office building and stared after her until he couldn't see her anymore. He knew he wasn't being fair to her. It really wasn't her fault. He was the one who married Lois when he had feelings for Diana. He was the one who had an affair while his wife was injured in a bank robbery. He would never forgive himself for letting her get hurt. Pushing Diana away was the only way he could survive. If he didn't see her, he wouldn't remember. At least that is what he thought. She haunted his dreams, awake or not. He can't stop remembering how perfectly they fit together and how amazing it was to let go while they made love. He loved Diana, more than he could ever admit, and now he hurt her again.
He needed to stop acting this way. He ran upstairs to let Lois know he had to leave. He flew off following behind Diana. He called the Watchtower and was told that she was in Boston at the Embassy. He quickly flew after her. When he arrived at the Embassy, he was asked to wait in one of the front rooms. Ten minutes later and he was still waiting, he was just about to start searching the Embassy himself when an aid came in and told him that Diana had left.
He called the Watchtower again, and was told she was there. He transported to the Watchtower and found J'onn waiting for him.
"Are you sure you know what you are doing?" J'onn asked.
"I need to speak with her before she leaves for Themyscira." Clark said.
At that moment, Clark and J'onn heard the alarms go off. The disturbance was coming from Diana's quarters. They ran inside her room and found it empty. All that remained were boxes of her possessions.
"Clark, I don't know if it is my place to tell you this, but you should know."
"Know what?" asked Clark, and then like a switch his anger was back, "No, I don't care. She made her choice." Clark decided that maybe it was better for everyone, well best for him and Lois if Diana was to go home for a while.
J'onn probed Clark's mind and knew it was too soon to tell him he would be a father. He was too angry. Angry for cheating on Lois, angry for not being sorry, angry that she was hurt, and most of all, angry for pushing Diana away. J'onn was going to wait until Clark was ready to hear the news.
