( Lois is never cold when Clark takes her up into the air, even in the night; he holds her so close that she can hear his heart beating. Sometimes he takes her up so high and then holds her so still that she thinks they have been suspended in amber without their realising: beneath them Metropolis looks like a constellation of glimmering golden stars neatly placed onto a grid as if by the hand of an obsessive-compulsive god. )

This is beautiful, Mary. It's such a gentle exploration of very deep and intense emotions that I can only melt into a puddle after reading it a few times.

Such a beautiful line. I don't think any words of praise would do this justice so I'll just leave it at that. Thanks for sharing this.
