NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: I just wanted to tell everyone thank-you for all of your comments. I read and take them all to heart. I'll wont be able to write for a while because my husband and I are buying our first home (so excited.) So we will be packing and unpacking… but I didn't want to leave you guys without giving you one more good chapter. And once again thanks for everything.

Clark knocked before he entered Lois's apartment at the Talon. She was unpacking groceries and placing them into the cabinet. She turned and looked at Clark.

"Smallville, didn't think I'd see you again, I mean after the kiss and run." She laughed it off. "Anyway, I totally fussed Chloe out for trying to set us up. I mean really you and me together." She grinned. "What was Chloe and Oliver thinking?"

Clark placed his hands in his pocket. "Yeah, totally." He smiled. "Look, I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I just took the whole Chloe and Oliver thing to serious."

"So you kissed me to make her mad?" Lois placed the bread she had taken from the bag into the counter top.

Clark was tired of lying to the people he cared about. So he decided to be honest at least about the way his heart felt. "The truth is I still love Chloe. But I always figure that out when it's too late."

Lois smiled. Chloe had told her about Justin and how Clark got jealous. And when Ian had showed interest in her how Clark tried to find fault with him. Which ended up being a good thing since both guys tried to kill her.

"… I spent the night thinking about what Chloe had told me yesterday." He walked over to Lois. "She said that I should open my eyes and look at what's in front of me."

Lois swallowed the lump in her throat. "And w-what's in front of you?" She said uncomfortable.

Clark half grinned. "You."

Lois took a step back to catch her breath. "Did you hit your head, Smallville? I mean you and I are so not itemable."

"Lois, your everything I ever wanted in one person. Your sweet and caring and put others before yourself like Lana. Your courages and daring and loud mouth and sexy and amazing like Chloe. Every girl that I have ever fallen in love with… your that person in one."

"Are you saying that you want to humor Chloe and Ollie? That you want to take me out?" She asked still in shock.

"Yeah." He smiled. "I'll pick you up at seven dress casual." He turned and started towards the door.

"Clark,…"

He turned to face her.

"…this… it can't work. You know that right. I mean we aren't compatible."

"I know. But we'll prove them wrong." He grinned and walked out of the apartment.

Lois leaned against the counter as if she was trying to fill her lungs with air before she passed out. She had always saw Clark as a baby brother. Some one whom she could tell everything and expect nothing in return. But for some reason in that one moment Lois felt her heart race, her knees get weak and her stomach flutter with butterflies.

Oliver laid in the bed with his arms wrapped around his wife once again. He kissed her on her soft blonde head. He loved the way she smelt of honeysuckles and vanilla bean. She was amazing in bed and hell she was amazing in everything that she did.

"Wow,… you really know how to make a man feel good." He grinned.

"I try." She smiled up at him. "When do you and the guys leave for Spain?"

"Tomorrow afternoon." He stroked her arm with his fingertips. "But I want be gone as long this time. Victor and A.C. have ever thing planned out to a T. I just need to help close the door."

"Good. I hate it when your gone. This apartment seems so lonely."

Oliver lifted her chin to look into her beautiful hazel eyes. "What would you say if when I get back we look for a house. Maybe in Smallville? Or we could move to my house in Star City. That way you'll have the maid and butler to keep you company when I'm away on business."

"I like the first choice better. I'd like being near Lois."

"And Clark." Oliver added.

Chloe shrugged. It was one of the perks. "I love you, Ollie."

"I love you too." He kissed her on the lips softly.

"I want to make all your dreams come true."

"You already have." He rolled over on top of her looking down into her eyes. "The day you said I do." He begin to kiss her on her collar bone starting all over again at making her skin tingle.
