All of the force was implied, not expressed, and she sensed something fierce in place of his usual tenderness. “I told you if you wanted a divorce, I’d give you one,” Kal-El growled, those stormy eyes on inches from hers. “I lied. I will never give you up, Lois.” He kissed her then, roughly, and Lois gasped. His residual anger smoldered in that kiss, along with all of the love he had for her – the love that had been bruised but not broken, not even diminished, by the trials and revelations of this terrible week.
This was the emotional connection they had been missing, rendered tangible. This was what both of them wanted, what they needed, what they had suffered without. And this was the proof, final and absolute, that he wanted Lois and no other woman.
*Squees madly* I KNEW IT! (I want to be louder in person but don't want to wake up my hubby... may go cuddle with him though after this considering).
*bounces right along with Saavikam*
I remember a "Love Languages" book which was given to my hubby and I as our wedding gift from my then pastor. I suspect these two are a "physical" love type. Touch is important to them and physical distance hurts more than anything implied. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" does not necessarily hold true with this love type.
