The fifth C is for Clark.

sv100 prompt: past prompts/ teardrop.
Lex slipped his hands into his pockets and rocked back on his heels before the jeweler's case.
He had chosen diamonds before, and dithered less. Those had, unfortunately, meant less - and Clark would know that. So his choice would have to be perfect for more than just the usual reasons.
For Helen, a marquis cut, to compliment her aristocratic profile.
For Lana, a princess; no explanation required.
He thought of the vows - of good times and bad - and the way he’d wept the first time Clark took him in his arms.
A teardrop, then - the most precious he’d ever shed.
