The quiet can be disconcerting ((tag Clark))

It has been a few hours since Clark took April home. In that time, she fed. She bathed. And she tried to lie down for a little bit.

But she can not close her eyes for long. She can not go into a deep slumber. The quiet in her mind is like a blank canvas. Plus, it just gives her more time to go over and over again everything that she experienced.

Slowly, she is remembering the others using her fears against her. The claustrophobia. The flames and the heat of the fire. The fear of losing her children.

"Clark?" He was checking on the children for her, when she got cleaned up.
But April knows that she doesn't have to call out loudly to get his attention.

Their children aren't teenagers yet, so he can't speak from much personal experience, but he remembers well what it was like to be one himself. "Teach and guide them, encourage their triumphs and help them work through their failures, give them the space they need to discover what person they're going to be."

"Just like with real kids. But it's well worth it."

Clark hugs her, in full agreement. "Me too. But I'll take what we can get."
kalel_ofkrypton: (Holding hands)

"I guess... in a way, your voices had to grow up too. We'll learn about them together."

Clark thinks of the love he has for April, for his parents, for their children. "It's the best feeling in the world."

"That's all right. It's better this way."
kalel_ofkrypton: (The man I'm meant to be)

[personal profile] kalel_ofkrypton 2015-02-21 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Clark nods in agreement. "All we can do now is be patient."

"You know you don't have to thank me for that." He would do it anyway, no matter the risk.
kalel_ofkrypton: (Black Blur: Love)

He smiles through the kiss. "Oh really."
