👓 husband!clark taking off his glasses to kiss you harder

He has been waiting to have you all day.
Every second he was away from you, your dear, beloved husband Clark, spent thinking of you. Of your gorgeous face, your sparkling eyes...he was so lost without the feeling of you. He was adrift, as if he’d been moving through a haze, he needed you to move the dust from his eyes and blow his vision clear, to be in full consciousness.
When he finally arrived home, no proper greeting was performed. At least not with any words. With a gentle touch, he moved you towards him, his fingers brushing your cheek as he kissed your lips. He began tasting you, needing to savour all of what he was taking in.
A soft sigh crumbles out of him as he realises the lenses of his glasses are keeping him just far away from feel the world blur.
"Hm?" You murmured in surprise, feeling him pull away.
Clark smiled at you, noticing your frown from the broken kiss. "Just a second, love." He removed his glasses, and before you could even register where they landed, he leaned in, pressing his lips onto yours hurriedly without a stop in sight.
You couldn’t miss the longing in him, emphasised by his mouth, moving tirelessly, reaching deeper into your own.
“Cla—ah…rk…” You couldn’t even say his name properly due to his breathless kissing. This gets him slightly alarmed and he breaks the kiss again.
“Oh no, was I too harsh?” His loving face scans yours immediately, looking for the mistake he assumed he made. “I’m so sorry, baby, I just missed you so bad.” His eyes turn into a that of a puppy who feels the growing weight of guilt. “I just wanted you closer.”
You almost melt in his arms. He’s always so adorable, but especially when he is this sweet. Poor thing is so worried about hurting you, like he could ever do it with such a tender heart.
“Clark, you didn’t hurt me.” You peck his blushing cheek, turning to gaze into his eyes, which are still in the state of worry. “I was just taken a back, that’s all.”
He sort of nods, not quite convinced. You wrap your arms around his neck, coming near his ear, carefully whispering. “Think fast.”
You jump into his arms, legs around his waist and without a second behind, his hands hold you. There isn’t a moment left of just silence, you kiss him deep, fingers into his hair, soft murmuring sounds filling your home as the kiss becomes deeper and harder.
reader who giggles during sexy times cz it just feels so good
clark with a girl who giggles during sex, not because she’s not into it, but because it just feels so fucking good she can’t help it.
he’s got her pinned down, cock buried deep, and every time he thrusts she lets out this helpless little laugh between her moans—sweet, breathless, giddy. it makes him go feral, because she’s so wrecked she can’t even keep a straight sound in her throat.
“you think this is funny, baby?” he growls, hips slamming harder, but she’s gasping and giggling, hands fisting the sheets, eyes shining. the sound of it’s addictive—her laughter melting into whimpers, back arching, body trembling while he fucks her through it. and he can’t stop, not when she’s smiling under him, drooly and ruined, choking outbroken little laughs every time he hits that spot.

Clark Kent is a good man. That’s why he never kisses you.
It’s something he saves for certain occasions. Anniversaries. When you have a really hard day at work. Nights when you’re struggling to sleep.
Fights.
Especially the fights where a particularly rough grit in your voice is present, telling him when he’ll have to break his own rather shaky moral code. It always comes after a night spent yelling at each other, of going back and forth about some issue in your relationship that he’d rather avoid.
A night like the one you’re both being strangled by right now.
You’ve been screaming back and forth at each other for over 20 minutes; nothing but barbarous insults hurled at each other that neither of you will be able to forget but will refuse to discuss when your tempers have regulated. Not to mention that he heard that tell-tale grit in your voice from the very first second that you opened your mouth. Hell, it almost weighed heavier on him than the horrible things you were telling him.
Now, though, you’re both silent. Everything that needed to be said was said.
Eyes wide and unflinchingly locked together, unwavering connection stemming from the vicious battle you just went through in this bedroom. The one that was never going to produce a victor, because neither of you can take back what you told each other. You’re still red in the face. You’ve still got veins popping out of your neck. Hot, angry tears are silently pouring down your cheeks—no doubt from the high emotions, the unbearable pain.
Or maybe from the realization you’re arriving at for the millionth time this month: This relationship isn’t working. Hasn’t been working for weeks, and he knows you’ve been in that state of mind for a while.
Clark, though? Not so much. He’s given you so much of himself, so much of his time, so much of his life and love…how could he ever let you go?
So when you finally break that eye contact, when you look down at the floor separating the two of you, he knows what he has to do. Does he want to do it? No, because Clark is a good man.
But he’ll do anything to keep you with him.
It starts when you let out one of those wistful little sighs—the exact type of sigh that precedes the line he knows you’ll forget you even said to him in a few minutes:
“I think we need to take a break.”
Your voice is much softer now. Broken, in a way. Broken from how hard you were yelling. Broken from how upset you are. Broken from your own suggestion, because Clark knows that, deep down in your heart, you never mean that. You’ve never gone through with it, so how could you possibly mean it? You don’t want that.
He knows what you want.
Clark clears his throat. Takes a few slow, long strides across your bedroom until he reaches you. You’re so tired from the fight that you don’t even move away from him. Not like you’d want to, anyway. Clark knew you wouldn’t. He knows this fight—and the way you react to it—better than anything else.
You might have said you can’t stand him, that you want to take a break, that you’re tired of it all…but your body doesn’t agree. Your body leans into him. Your body presses your hands against his chest and lets your forehead fall on his shoulder. Your body rests on his so that you don’t have to carry the weight of your shared dysfunction on your own anymore.
“C’mon, baby. Don’t say that.” he whispers. “You don’t mean that.”
“Clark, don’t—”
That tiny beginner’s protest doesn’t really ring true while you’re sliding your arms around his shoulders and pulling yourself into his chest, so he cuts you off.
“No. No, we don’t need a break. We can work through this. We always work through it, don’t we?” he purrs at you. Tilts your head up with one hand while his other arm stays wrapped around your waist. Glues you to him and doesn’t give you any space to unstick yourself from him. His fingers curl around your jaw and a quick scan of your face in the pale blue moonlight streaming into your room gives him what he was hoping to see.
You have a certain habit that he uses to his advantage when you fight with him. You gnaw at your bottom lip when you’re trying to keep certain insults in. Sometimes, it’s so harsh of a bite that you cut the skin. Make yourself bleed.
Give him an opening to change your mind.
“Goodness, honey. You gotta stop doing this,” he sweetly coos. Runs his thumb over your bottom lip to make it seem like he’s only concerned about the cut. To be fair, he is concerned about how it’s probably hurting you—but that’s not taking precedence right now.
“Gonna hurt yourself. I know this doesn’t feel good.”
He pushes out a sigh through his nose. He has to look frustrated and sympathetic if he wants to act like he doesn’t know what he’s doing.
“You gonna let me clean you up?”
You whine and lean into his touch; a confirmation without the words to accompany it. He knows you can’t resist him. He puts on his sweetest smile and mumbles, “Good. Gotta take care of my girl,” while he gives you a soft squeeze.
Getting you this close is just step one.
Step two, though, is where the last remaining dregs of his own guilt start to creep in. He hesitates for a moment when he pulls his thumb off of your lip and brings it up to his own mouth. He could pull away from you and get a wet rag to clean it instead. He could be the good man Ma raised him to be.
Then you lean into him a little more. Get so close to him that he can smell the shampoo in your hair, the perfume on your skin, the adrenaline pumping through your blood. Your bottom lip is still subtly trembling. A shockwave from your crying that just refuses to leave you, much like how you can’t leave his arms right now.
How could you blame him for what he’s about to do? Your body is begging him to do it. Begging him for some release from this pain. Craving relief that only he can provide you.
Isn’t the whole point of his being here on Earth protecting and caring for its inhabitants, anyway?
So he ditches the guilt. Swallows it down and acts like he’s just trying to clean you up when he licks his thumb to wet it and swipes it over the gently oozing blood on your lip. Drags it back and forth over the still-open cut once, twice, three times. Soft and sweet, like Ma would do when he had a stain on his cheek from playing outside when he was a kid. As though there’s no ulterior motive here.
And to you, there probably isn’t. To you, he probably seems like he’s just caring for you. Trying to make you feel better.
Clark knows that’s not the case.
He keeps his thumb pressed against your lip. Keeps it over that cut. Keeps pressing his saliva into the little wound. Rubbing it back and forth. Licking his thumb again. Repeating the whole process when some more blood wells from your self-inflicted bite. Feeding more and more of himself to you.
Part of him wishes Kara never told him about this little trick.
“All I know is that it’s like…a fuckin’ love potion, or something. If you kiss a human, they’ll go crazy for you. I think it’s in our spit. I know it sounds crazy, Kal, but trust me. That shit works.”
He thought she was lying. Didn’t believe her at first, because how outrageous would that be? Sure, his parents wanted him to repopulate Earth, but isn’t aphrodisiac-laced spit a little far fetched?
Two years later, he knows she wasn’t lying. Especially right now, as he’s watching you fall into the effects of it. He’s watching your pupils dilate with every gentle brush of his thumb over your lip, watching your breathing quicken in your still-heaving chest.
This trick’s worked on you every time. And every time he does it, he feels bad about it, but he’s sure not stopping any time soon. Not when he gets to see you like this.
Your eyes keep locking onto his mouth. You keep squirming in his grasp, body warm, skin dampening, and much more pliable than you were only a few seconds earlier. When your fingers dig into his shirt, he finds that they’re trembling. Whether it’s from the rage of your fight or the lack of his attention toward the mess you’re already making between your thighs, he doesn’t know. Maybe it’s both.
“Clark,” you whine. Pitchy, breathy, irresistible. He ticks his jaw, annoyed with himself for being so turned on by this. By being able to control you this easily. He’s supposed to be a good man. He’s not supposed to get hard when you’re upset with him.
“I’m here. I’ve got you, baby.”
Your lidded eyes trace every single word that leaves his mouth. You moan at the pet name. His fingers, still curled around your jaw while his others grasp at your waist, pick up on the heat radiating from you.
“Don’t like it when we fight.”
“I don’t like it either, honey.”
Your knees buckle at the saccharine nickname he knows is your favorite—a slight jolt that makes him tighten his hold on you—and you start panting, start gripping him a little harder.
Are your hips rolling against his? He pays no mind to it. Forces himself to take his thumb away from your lip, because you’re good and moldable for him already. Three rounds of feeding himself to you through an open wound’ll do it. He doesn’t need to take this any further.
That doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to, though.
“I love you,” you whisper to him. The inky blackness of your pupils eats up your irises. You’re soaking through your panties, making such a big mess that he can smell it. He should be excited—and part of him is—but his heart aches instead. When was the last time he had you this wet, this compliant, this soft and needy for him, without using his saliva to get you there? Must have been before everything started going downhill a few months ago.
Oh well. At least you’re there now, right?
So he smiles at you. Sweet and crooked, the smile you’ve told him you love a thousand times before. Makes you whimper and has you bucking your hips up against his. You’re so hot that your skin is burning. Warm to the touch and a little bit damp. Just how he likes you. His trick worked like a charm.
“There’s my sweet girl. Was starting to think I’d never see you again, baby. I love you so much.”
When his lower-octave purr hits your ears, you almost collapse. He felt it all. The way your knees gave out, the way you grabbed onto him a little harder, the way your heart started slamming so roughly behind your ribcage that it almost burst out of your chest.
“Can I have a kiss?” you mercilessly, pathetically beg. Voice so soft and needy and whiney that he couldn’t possibly dream of resisting you. “I know—I know you don’t like to do it, but…I need one. Please?”
“Is a kiss gonna make you feel better?”
You hum and nod so hard that your head looks like it’s about to fall off. He finds himself laughing. Not mean, not teasing, just…laughing. Because he’s in awe. How has this trick worked for this long? How haven’t you built up an immunity by now?
Thank God you haven’t built up an immunity by now.
“My needy girl always gets what she wants.”
He licks his lips—getting them wet so he can keep you pliant—and leans down to press them against yours. His tongue gently glides against your bottom lip, making sure to take a little extra time on that cut there and causing you to suck in a brief wince. He pushes his way into your mouth without even a hint of resistance from you. Does its work. Keeps you easy.
20 minutes ago, you’d have had his head on a pike if he kissed you when you were that mad. If he had so much as suggested a kiss 20 minutes ago, you would have walked out of that door and never came back.
You break away not even 10 seconds later. Clearly woozy from the kiss, like he knew you’d be. Everything is so heightened for you that he’s surprised you even lasted that long. You press your forehead against his jaw.
“Better?” Clark asks. Your answer is some sort of jumbled little confirmation.
Your sticky, warm skin clings to his when you catch your breath, pull back, and try to reconnect the kiss. He lets you. You’re the one parting his lips to press your tongue against his, you’re the one licking into his mouth so you can get as close to him as possible, you’re the one tangling your hands in his hair and yanking on it so you can part for air after a pathetic 10 more seconds. And yet, after you gulp in a few deep breaths, you kiss him again. Surprise engulfs him when, this time, you suck on his tongue.
Couldn’t hold the moan that burst from his chest back if he tried.
It’s the first time in a couple weeks that you’ve paid any sort of positive attention to him at all, and he loves it. He loves you. If his girl wants a kiss—or two, or three—she’ll get one. Matter of fact, he’d let you do anything if it meant he got to keep you forever. He just might be able to do that if you keep sticking your tongue down his throat and sucking on his like you just did.
He pulls away when he senses that you’re losing yourself in him. That realization comes through your landing a particularly rough bite on his bottom lip before you start kissing his chin, his jaw, and his neck, leaving a trail of tiny wet patches in your wake.
Clark cradles your face in his hands to stop you from diving in for another kiss. Gives you a chance to breathe and gives him a moment to drink you in when you’re not mad at him. Your precious, soft, absolutely lovedrunk face. His poor baby. So far gone—eyes half-lidded, lips kiss-swollen and glistening from your messy litany of kisses, skin hot to the touch and chest heaving as you claw at his shirt and stumble over your own two feet while you drag him backwards toward your bed.
You’re more than pliable enough, now.
Clark swipes his thumb over your bottom lip, thumb dampening from the filthy kisses you’ve shared with him, a mix of your saliva and his. You chase after the contact and tilt your head into his palm when he slips his thumb down toward your jaw.
He puts on his best soft, deep voice and asks, “Gonna let me take care of you, now, baby? Let me apologize?” before you can yank him down onto your bed.
He gets a soft hum from you. A nod. Of course he does. You’d never say no to him when you’ve got this much of his “love potion”—as Kara would call it— coursing its way through your veins. So he takes your confirmation that he knew he’d get, lifts you up, and lets you indulge in your forced desires.
Clark’s form of an apology isn’t an actual apology. He doesn’t say sorry to you anymore. When has it ever soothed your anger, anyway?
Instead, he apologizes by burying his face between your legs. He never has to give you much after you’ve kissed. A gentle circling of his tongue around your clit for a handful of seconds is enough to get you to come undone for the first time. The next is a little harder to work for, but if being between your legs and humping the mattress to get his own relief could be a full time job, he’d apply for it immediately.
“Clark!” you groan while arching off the bed. While you’re being thrown off the proverbial cliff, falling into your third climax in an obscenely short time frame.
Your body is a gorgeous symphony to him when you’re like this. Everything you do is music to his ears when you’re in this bed. The roughness of your breathing, the sheets rubbing against your heated, sticky skin, the lewd squelch of your wetness as he drives two fingers in and out of you, the moans you sing out when he curls those fingers up to hit the soft, spongy spot that he loves to abuse until you’re boneless beneath him.
“Coming! Fuck, I’m coming! Don’t—ah! Don’t stop!” you babble. There’s a string of curse words attached to the end of that jumbled declaration. Clark just hums and continues eating. Slips his fingers out of you to replace them with his tongue. The rough push of his nose against your clit forces a full-body jolt out of you.
You keep screaming for him to continue, to go deeper, to not stop, and he gives it all to you until you’re falling apart. It’s not like it was his intention to stop. Wouldn’t dream of stopping now. Wouldn’t deprive himself of the pleasure of being glued to your pretty pussy like this.
He’s not sure when he became so selfish. Maybe it was the first time he kissed you to manipulate you. Well, it’s not manipulation. Not if you were the one who asked for a kiss. That’s what he tells himself, at least.
“Shit!” you hiss while you collapse back down on the bed with a heavy thump. Your body’s starting to give out. Mind’s been gone for a while, now; there’s no way you remember what that fight earlier was about. Perfect. Just where he wants you. Should be enough to buy him at least a couple days of peace. A couple days of not having to worry about you wanting to break up with him and him losing all his motivation to live.
Clark smiles. Pulls back just enough to speak to you. When he pushes his thumbs against each of your folds and spreads you open, your whimpered response is telling him you’ve got tears in your eyes. You cant your hips up, bucking and squirming for him to give you more.
How are you still begging for more when you’ve had so much already? Maybe he’s not the only selfish one here.
“Look at the mess you made. Love it when she’s cryin’ for me like this, baby. Can’t believe I get to call this perfect little pussy all mine. How’d I get so lucky?”
He pushes his filthy words into your thighs between kisses as though he’s praying to you. He is, in a way. Praying that you won’t leave him. Praying that he’ll get to keep you if he’s good enough at worshipping the altar of your body.
Those kisses slowly trail up your hips, your waist, your stomach. Each time he makes contact with you, he feels the goosebumps on your skin. Feels the way you shiver, the way you’re still weak for him even though he hasn’t kissed you in what feels like an eternity.
He wants to kiss you. Wants to push you a little further. Wants you to go completely dumb so that you don’t have to think about how mad you are at him. So that, if he’s lucky, you’ll forget about everything altogether and just love him the way he loves you. Without hesitation. Without regret.
For now, he refrains. Kisses up to your chest and sucks one peaked, sensitive nipple into his mouth while his thumb teases the other. A gentle back and forth swipe, one that he drew on your bottom lip just a little while earlier.
He stops his kisses when he reaches your jaw. Tilts his head away from you when you try to kiss him. Nearly dies from the tiny, sad noise you push out when he doesn’t give you what you want. Clears his throat and gently spreads your legs with one knee. Somewhere along the way, he slipped his hand down to your overstimulated clit, and he earns a cute little moan from you when he starts tracing soft circles on it.
“Gonna let me use her one more time, honey?”
“Last time,” you confirm while spreading your legs wider for him. You nod. “One last time.”
Clark stills. Lifts his head so he can actually meet your eyes for the first time since this has all started. It’s a miracle that they’re still open. What’s not a miracle, though, is how your irises have started to return.
His blood chills. Threatens to freeze in his veins and render him useless. How long has it been since that aphrodisiac wore off?
“Last time? You don’t mean that,” he mutters. The way his voice went up an octave is embarrassing. How could five words make him panic so quickly?
“I told you I wanted to take a break,” you counter. Your arms wrap around his shoulders and your fingers play with the curls at the nape of his neck. Clark’s face starts to burn. Whether it’s from embarrassment, panic, or anger, he doesn’t exactly know.
“You didn’t mean it when you said that, either.”
He sighs. He knows what he has to do. He didn’t think it’d ever get this far, but if it means keeping you, it’s getting done.
He steels himself and sends you a fake smile. You probably clocked it. He’s never been good at faking them with you. He brushes some of your hair off of your forehead and lowers his face towards yours. His voice is a whisper when he finds it again.
“We’ll talk about it later.”
You huff at him. Press your lips into a thin line but turn toward his palm when it slides down your cheek. Soon enough, his thumb is gliding over your lip again. He always seems to find it. This time, though, he’s got a reason.
He swipes it back and forth. Gentle. Unassuming. Considers it a win when you tilt your chin up for him to continue the tiny, comforting movement. He regains some confidence in his voice now that he’s accepted his fate and knows what he has to do here.
“Be a good girl and open up for me, baby,” he commands while he drags his thumb down your chin. For someone who wants a break so badly, you comply immediately. The smile he sends you is genuine, this time.
“That’s it. Just like that, sweetheart.”
As soon as you’ve got your mouth open, chin tilted up, he does it. He stares into your eyes as he lets a single, heavy dribble of his saliva fall onto your tongue. Just enough of it to bump up the concentration of the aphrodisiac without knocking you out completely.
“Swallow,” he coos when he closes your mouth for you. Smiles when you do as he says without skipping a beat.
“Atta girl.”
When he finally tears his focus away from your mouth to look at your entire face, he sees everything he wants:
mdni | rough sex | overstimulation | begging kink | crying kink | slight praise kink | possessive tone | primal play (light) | restraint (wrist pinning) | slight degradation | semi-consensual vibes (pushed past limits) | tears | dirty talk | power dynamics | sub reader | dom male
Your body is already a mess—shaking, slick, every nerve screaming—when his hand presses flat against your stomach, forcing you down into the sheets.
“Don’t run from me,” he orders, voice dark, breath hot against your ear. His tone makes your spine arch helplessly, even though every part of you is crying out for relief.
“I—I can’t,” you gasp, tears slipping down your temple. “Please, I can’t—”
“You can,” he cuts in, rough and merciless. His grip on your wrists tightens until you whimper. “And you will. You’ll take every damn second of this.”
Your thighs quake, trying to clamp shut, but he pries them open, pushing you to the edge again and again. Each stroke, each press, sets fire to your already-overworked body. The aftershocks haven’t even died down before he’s pulling another one out of you, dragging you up the cliff with ruthless precision.
You sob, arch, twist, but his weight keeps you trapped. “Stop—please, I can’t—oh my god—” Your voice breaks into high, jagged cries, but he only laughs low, cruel.
“You hear yourself? You’re beautiful when you beg,” he murmurs, lips brushing your jaw. Then, sharper, commanding: “Count them.”
Your mind stutters. “W-what?”
“Count. Every. One,” he growls, thrusting harder, faster, until you’re keening. “I want to hear you choke on the number while you fall apart.”
You try, you really do, but your voice splinters, numbers slurring into sobs as another orgasm rips through you. “Three—f-four—” you cry, your body convulsing so violently your legs shake against the bed.
“That’s it,” he praises, though his tone is anything but gentle. “Keep going. Don’t you dare stop.”
By the sixth, your throat is raw, your nails leaving crescents in your own palms where he’s holding your hands down. By the seventh, you’re incoherent, reduced to nothing but whimpers, tears, and trembling flesh under his command.
Finally, finally, he slows—but not before bending down, lips brushing your ear as you sob beneath him. “Look at you. Wrecked. Ruined. Perfect.”
And when he releases your wrists, you collapse instantly, limp and broken on the sheets, your body twitching with aftershocks. He smirks down at the sight, satisfied—not because you begged for him to stop, but because he decided you were done.

⟡⨾ pt 2. of bruised but when you get back from the gyno the next day
nsfw content | 18+ read at your own risk!
warnings: non-accurate anatomy talk blehhh, smut, “just the tip” trope, clark being a lil nerd, reader lwk being a full on sub (first for me btw), and let’s throw in a lil bit of creampie in there for good measure 👅
a/n: sigh Clark my big dicked man #needsupershitinmybedtonight
“It’s all your fault.”
Was the first thing you said as you walked through the front door. Clark was sitting on the floor in the living room, with a half finished puzzle splayed across the coffee table as he looked up, scrunching his nose to try and fix his glasses that had been slowly falling down his face.
“Huh?” He furrowed his eyebrows as he watched you pull off your shoes and place them onto the shoe rack. You then hung up your coat and purse before stomping your way over to him with your arms crossed over your chest.
“You’re bruising every organ in my body with your dick… And all of my doctors are laughing at me for it!” You furrow your eyebrows as you look down at him, tapping your foot on the carpet lightly.
“…Right. So… What did I do?” He raised an eyebrow before you huffed in irritation, plopping onto the couch as you melted into the cushions.
“I went to the gyno today for my Pap smear, right?”
“Right.”
“She said my cervix was in good shape. No abnormalities whatsoever,”
“Isn’t that good news?”
“It is… But then she was like, ‘Oh! Looks like your cervix has a bit of bruising!’… I almost died out of embarrassment, Clark,” You groaned as you shrunk into the cushions even more, burying your face in your hands.
Clark’s eyes widen just a bit as he scoots towards you, resting his chin on your thighs as he looked up at you, with his hands wrapped around your calves.
“Bruised? I thought you said there weren’t any abnormalities—”
“Clark.”
“What? You literally just said that there weren’t any and now you’re saying you were bruised—”
“It’s because of you, Clark! Your freakishly huge dick was bruising my cervix!”
Clark pressed his lips together as he stared up at you, “Oh.”
You hummed before sighing, running your hand through Clark's curls as you threw your head back. "She said if I 'don't take a break', the bruising could start actually hurting."
Clark huffed out a sigh as he rested his cheek on your thighs, trailing his fingers up your legs before fidgeting with a lone string at the hem of your shorts.
“I don’t have a problem with that. As long as you’re not in any pain.” He mumbled with his cheek smushed against your skin.
You furrowed your eyebrows as you looked down at him.
“You’re fine with not having sex with me?” You question as you narrow your eyes.
“I— What?! I never said that!”
“That’s basically what you said!”
“Baby— I said, I don’t have a problem with taking a break if it meant you won’t get hurt. That’s all I said—”
“Same fucking—”
“Just because you’re angry, doesn’t give you an excuse to swear.” Clark holds his index finger up and shakes it just a bit as you roll your eyes.
You groan in frustration as you collapse back into the cushions. “Well I’m not okay with it.” You huff as your fingers splay across his cheek bones.
You felt Clark’s hand slow their movements just a bit, tilting his head up to look at you.
“Ya’ know what… Neither am I.” He mumbled softly.
“…What? You just said—”
“I take it back.”
You raised an eyebrow as you ran your hand through his hair, your manicured nails lightly scratching his scalp. “Okay…”
“Ya’ know that one thing people say? The… uhhh— golly it’s at the tip of m— Oh right! Just the tip!”
You blink at him as he smiles up at you, pulling his head up from your lap as he rests his hands on your thighs instead.
“…What?”
“That saying! Just the tip. It’s like… You only—”
“I know what that means, Clark. My question is, what in the world made you think about that?”
Clark huffs out a breathy chuckle as he smiled widely.
“Well, I was thinking, we could still have sex, but it’d be just the tip. I wouldn’t bruise you and you won’t get hurt, but you’d still feel good. I don’t know…” He shrugs as he rests his head on your lap again.
He must be going crazy. You thought.
Good thing you like him a bit insane.
“M-more, Clark—” Your breath hitched as Clark fucked into you, just barely.
Thrusting his tip in just to take it out was really not what he wanted to be doing, but he was being cautious. If he actually hurt you, he’d probably go and find Kryptonite and swallow it himself.
“C-Can’t, b-baby— Have t-to keep you s-safe—” He grunted as the grip he had on your waist tightened slightly.
You whine softly as you grip the pillow behind your head, staring down at his cock short thrusting into your cunt.
“Clark— p-pleaseeee—” You reach your hand up to cup the side of his face. “Need i-it so b-bad…”
Clark breathes shakily as he stares down at you, sweat beading down the side of his face with his curls sticking to his forehead. He’s so pretty.
And you knew Clark could never say no to you. Not with you like this.
Your body sheen with sweat as your tits bounced with each thrust, his thick cock drilling into your pussy which felt like he was nearing the gates of heaven, your face flushed with your mouth slightly agape as you stared up at him with those eyes that captivated his soul from the moment he met you.
With a single huff, he agreed.
“…O-okay. Just— Just m-make sure t-to tell m-me if it h-hurts…” He stumbled across his words before burying his face in your neck, pressing the softest of kisses to your skin.
You nodded, despite him not directly seeing it. You wrap your arms around his shoulders as you feel him push into you completely, “C-Clark—”
“I k-know, baby… Doing s-so g-good for me…” He mumbled into your skin as his hips rolled into yours, the squelch of your walls gushing around his dick lingered in the air, egging Clark on to keep fucking into you like a man starved.
Your body shivered as you felt the tip of his cock press against the spot so deep inside you that made your eyesight blur, nails scratching down his back muscles as red lines cascaded down his milky skin.
“B-Baby— I’m—”
“S’okay… C’mon, love— C-come all over me… N-need it so bad—” He whined against your neck as the coil in his belly tightened with each pulse of your walls around his cock.
You dug divots into his skin as your climax washed over you, with Clark’s following suite. Clark softly whimpered into your neck as heavy breaths filled the room.
Yeah… um… Let’s hope the cervix bruising isn’t too bad.
a/n 2: i’m in desperate need of him omg omg someone sedate me, lock me up and throw away the key— actually not even that will stop me yall just gonna have to kill me— actually that won’t stop me either. just run.

Warnings: angst, being stood up, this fic made me giggle a lot, fluffy + happy end!
Summary: You think Clark is seeing someone else. That someone? Superman.
WC: 4.7k!
You watch, miserably, as the clock ticks past the time Clark said he’d be here to pick you up for dinner. He’s always late for work, so, you think, five minutes past is fine. Until it’s ten. Until it’s twenty. Until it’s forty-five. Until you’re taking your shoes off, changing into sweatpants, and taking off your makeup.
It shouldn’t surprise you, it really shouldn’t. Though this was supposed to be your first date, it isn’t the first time Clark has mysteriously canceled plans, or promised to meet you somewhere and not shown, sending a text instead to say he can’t make it.
Like clockwork, you hear your phone buzz. You don’t even grace it with a glance. You know it’s Clark, apologizing for needing to cancel. It’s fine.
It probably wasn’t even meant to be a date, it just seemed like it might be. It was the first time the plans included him picking you up rather than the two of you meeting somewhere. It was the first time a reservation had been made at this tiny little restaurant the two of you always passed together and always said, “We should go in there.” It was the first time he had said, though you thought it was kind of a joke, or at least not totally serious because it is a phrase people use without meaning it literally, “It’s a date.”
You grab your tub of ice cream from the freezer and a spoon, not even bothering with a bowl. You step out onto your fire escape and plop down, stabbing the ice cream with your spoon.
On the next escape over, your neighbor’s orange cat licks his paws, ears perking when he hears you.
“I sure know how to pick ‘em, eh, Lou?” you scoff, licking the ice cream off your spoon. “Why can’t I just sleep all day like you?”
Lou trills and lays his head down with a big sigh. All you can think is me too, buddy. Me too.
You eventually drag yourself inside after eating half the tub, figuring you shouldn’t eat all of it tonight. Clark will be at work tomorrow and you’ll have to face him -- and his apologies, that are, frankly, starting to get old -- so you’ll probably want that other half tomorrow night.
Before you crawl into bed, you finally give your phone a look, seeing it’s just as you expected. Clark is apologizing. Apparently Superman was fighting something and wrecked Clark’s route to get to your place. Rain check? He asked. And then, just a few minutes ago, Please?
You read them but you don’t reply. You don’t have it in you.
It’s always Superman.
That’s his excuse. It’s always Superman did this or Superman did that, and you honestly think you’ve reached your limit for Superman-related excuses. You mean, sure, the guy has saved the city countless times, and he makes sure there is minimal damage both to civilians and to the city, but why is Clark always bringing him up? He’s always interviewing him, too, and you have no idea how, because as far as you’re concerned, Superman just shows up when the day needs saving.
Not that you’re complaining, because you’re not. You’d much rather the day be saved than some monster from another planet destroy everything you’ve ever loved. You just.
You’re not jealous of a superhero. You are not.
And yet, the more you try to tell yourself that, the more it seems like you’re not convinced at all.
You bury your face into the pillow with a groan. You can’t compete with Superman. You’re you. No wonder Clark is always making excuses to cancel on plans with you. If the options were you and Superman, you’d pick him, too.
God, how did you not see it before? You never thought Clark was interested in men, but clearly he is -- which is fine, you have no problem with it, you just wish he had said it to your face instead of these vague messages and signals.
Or maybe they haven’t been that vague, you’ve just been too blind to see it. Maybe the excuses were his way of trying to politely and gently tell you he wasn’t interested, and you just weren’t getting it. That doesn’t seem like something Clark would do, because he does seem the type to tell you to your face in a direct, but not unkind, way. But still. Maybe he’s been trying to let you down easy this whole time, and you’ve been a fool, believing his excuses, and thinking nothing of them.
You can be so ridiculous sometimes.
+++
You barely sleep. Between crying and being frustrated with yourself for it and tossing and turning every five seconds, you think you manage a measly four hours of actual sleep. You know you look a complete state, but after half an hour of trying to mask it with makeup, you give up.
You stop for coffee on your way in, grabbing one for Lois too, because the coffee at The Daily Planet is…well, it’s really not coffee at all. You feel like you’re insulting all coffee by calling it that. You can hardly stomach it even with all the sugar Lois pours in it.
“Rough night?” the doorman asks when he sees you still have your sunglasses on.
You flash a tight smile, knowing he means well. “Yeah, you could say that.”
He winces. “I’m sorry, kid.”
“It’s alright,” you wave him off, handing him a doughnut. You had meant to eat it, but truthfully, you’re already feeling nauseous. “Here.”
He accepts it with a smile. You head into the newsroom, spotting Jimmy hunched over his desk and Lois looking up at you with a smile that quickly morphs into an alarmed expression.
You, like a fool, had told her about your “date” with Clark. And you, like an idiot, had forgotten until this exact moment that you had told her.
God, you should’ve called in sick.
“Hey,” she says gently, joining you at your desk. “How’d it go last night?”
You let out a weak laugh. “It didn’t, so.”
Her eyes widen. “What happened?”
You hand off her coffee to her with a shrug. “He canceled. Said something about Superman fighting something, I don’t know, I--” You shake your head, bringing your coffee to your lips. “I didn’t answer his texts.”
“He didn’t even call?”
You shake your head again, finally working your sunglasses off the bridge of your nose. “Be honest, how red do my eyes look?”
Lois tilts her head with a sad smile. “Noticeable.”
You snort. “Thanks, Lois.” You expected nothing less from her. “Do me a favor, when he comes in-- if he comes in, tell him I lost my voice or something?”
Her eyes dart to the side and she grimaces. “I don’t think that’ll work. What about if I punch him instead?”
You let out another laugh. Thank God you have Lois. “Why not? Go for it.”
She doesn’t, though the look she gives Clark might as well be lethal when he comes silently walking over to your desk, looking every bit the role of a kicked puppy.
“Hi,” he says quietly. He’s well over six-foot tall, but right now he looks half that. You don’t know if you find comfort in it or not. “Apology coffee? You’ve already got one, but I thought…well, I know you like it, so, here.” He places it on your desk. “I have an apology croissant, too, if that’ll help, I just-- I’m really sorry.”
You offer a smile, but it doesn’t reach your eyes, and it kind of hurts to even pretend. “Thanks. Don’t worry about it.”
He makes a pained noise, opening his mouth, his lips already forming your name, but you shake your head at him. Jimmy calls out to him with some joke and you focus back on your notes, hoping he’ll get the hint. He does.
You watch out of the corner of your eye as Clark crowds into his desk chair, and you try to get some work done.
Every word you write sounds wrong, and even the edits you make to Jimmy’s piece are complete crap -- and you tell him so in your apologetic email back to him. He asked for your help and instead he got…whatever that was.
It doesn’t help that you can practically feel Clark looking at you all wistful and sad, and you really don’t understand it. Why is he so bothered by your mood if he’s seeing someone else? Shouldn’t he be relieved that you finally got the hint? It only took it being a bright neon sign smacking you square across the nose, but you’ve got it now. Clark just doesn’t see you in that way, and that’s fine. You just wish he had enough guts to say that to your face, but it’s fine. It doesn’t really matter. The date never happened, so the two of you never “dated,” therefore he owes you nothing. It’s fine.
Except, it’s not fine, because your eyes are burning from never moving them from your computer screen, your head hurts from having only had caffeine all morning and no food, and you really wish Clark would stop looking at you.
Lunch is a nightmare, but the food does help. Clearly your blue mood has gone noticed by, well, everyone because Jimmy buys your sandwich and Perry gives you an extension on the piece you should’ve turned into him by the end of today. Lois acts a bit like a protective shield, talking to you about her piece and asking Very Important questions, even glaring at Clark when he tries to interject.
The end of the day can’t come fast enough, and you’re gathering your things and scrambling out of there before anyone can catch up. You think.
Because then you’re halfway down the sidewalk and you hear someone calling your name, someone whose voice sounds suspiciously like the person you least want to speak to right now.
Tears are springing to your eyes because they’re burning from staring at a screen and you’re just so tired. You just want to eat the rest of your ice cream and go to bed. You just want to ignore Clark for the rest of the week, or at least until he admits to your face that he’s seeing someone else and didn’t know how to let you down easily. You just want this day to be over.
“Wait! Wait up! Ple-- Sorry! Please!”
You stop dead in your tracks in the middle of the sidewalk, tilting your head toward the sky. You compose yourself and turn around just in time to see Clark dodging all the people and nearly tripping and falling over in the process of trying to reach you. He exhales in relief when he sees you’ve stopped to wait for him.
“Hey,” he breathes, pushing his glasses up onto his nose as he skids to a stop in front of you. “Are you-- Did you see my messages last night?”
You chuckle without meaning to, and his eyebrows furrow. “Yeah, Clark, I saw them.”
All around you, people move on the sidewalk, heading home, parting for the two of you when you wish they’d carry you away like a riptide.
“Can we-- Sorry,” he steps out of the way of someone else, moving closer to you in the process. “Can we try again? Tonight?”
It’s tempting, you admit, to agree and go somewhere with him right now. Because he’s right in front of you. Because you know he’d make it if you two go right now, together.
But you know it’s not where he really wants to be.
“No,” you shake your head. “It’s okay. We don’t have to.”
He frowns, adjusting the strap on his bag. “But I want to.”
Do you? You want to ask, but you don’t. Instead, you give him a sad smile. “I’ll see you tomorrow, Clark. Have a good night.”
Just like that, you disappear into the crowd, and even with all his might, Clark can’t seem to find you.
+++
Things go back to normal. Kind of. Mostly. Sort of.
Clark keeps bringing “apology coffee” as he calls it, and if it weren’t for the jet fuel they try to say is coffee at Daily Planet, then you might tell him to stop. But you don’t. You accept each cup with a smile, and dodge all of his questions expertly.
He still comes in late, and he still blames it on Superman. The two of you have a standing hang out at a museum in the city every month, but this time you cancel before he can. It feels cruel, doing it when you have no real reason to, but you can’t bring yourself to leave your apartment and hang out with him when your feelings are so obviously unrequited.
He does another interview with Superman. You try not to turn your nose up at it.
It’s awkward, this new air about your friendship with Clark. It’s tense. You can tell he wants to ask you about it, to ask about another raincheck maybe, but he never does. You don’t know what you’d say if he did.
It comes to a head when you cancel on yet another standing hang out the two of you have, using feeling sick as an excuse this time, and Clark just won’t let it go.
Can I bring you some soup? Tissues?
I’m fine, you tell him. Just need to sleep, that’s all.
He texts something else, but you don’t reply. You lay on the couch in front of your TV and shovel pretzels into your mouth in between sips of coffee -- that you definitely shouldn’t be drinking this late, but you don’t care.
You’re jolted from your stupor when you hear knocking on your door. Knocking that you know, unmistakably, is Clark.
You debate faking sleep until he goes away. But you can’t quite bring yourself to do it.
So, you wrap a blanket around your shoulders and answer your door.
“Clark?” you croak. It’s a weak -- and honestly awful -- attempt to fake being ill, but it’s all you’ve got. “What are you doing here?”
“I brought soup,” he says innocently, holding up the takeaway containers. “Your favorite, from the place down the street. And some, ah, bread, tissues, pain medicine, cough syrup-- You didn’t answer, so I went a little crazy at the store,” he says with a sheepish smile, holding up the grocery bag that is nearly bursting with cold remedies. “Can I come in?”
“Sure, but I’m just,” you clear your throat, half from your act and half from emotion clawing at your windpipe from him being so sweet, “watching TV and dozing.”
“I won’t stay long,” he promises. “Just want to make sure you’re okay.”
“I’m fine, Clark.”
He narrows his eyes in what you hope is a playful manner. “I don’t believe you.”
You let him inside with a sigh, retreating to the couch. He can probably tell you aren’t really sick, and he’s probably just being nice by not calling you out on it.
You hear the rustling in the kitchen as he puts things away and then as he pours a glass of water that you think is for himself, until he sets it down in front of you. He sits in the chair beside your couch, clasping his hands together and looking at the floor instead of you.
“You’re not really sick, are you?”
His voice is timid, and a bit hurt. Like he’s upset you’re lying to him and he can’t figure out why you’re doing it, but he sort of has an idea.
“What gave me away?” you chuckle bitterly. “My brilliant acting?”
“You never drink coffee when you’re sick,” he says seriously, nodding to your cup. “It’s how I know when you’re not feeling good.”
You blink. You hadn’t expected that answer, let alone the fact that he would notice something like that. “Oh.”
“What’s going on?” he asks desperately, finally looking up at you, and why are his eyes glassy? “I miss my best friend. We used to talk every day, but ever since that dinner--”
“That you stood me up for,” you remind him, the words leaving your lips before you can stop them and, as a result, having a bit more heat behind them than you want them to.
“I know, but I--” He wrings his hands, the words getting caught in his throat. “I’m sorry, I-- It was Superman! He was fighting, and it was everywhere--”
“Oh my God, Clark, it’s always Superman,” you laugh, not necessarily at him, but maybe you are. It’s cruel, but it hurts, the way he keeps dragging this out. “It’s always Superman destroyed the train or Superman--”
“Because he is! He’s keeping the city safe, but sometimes that means he’s--”
“Clark, stop it,” you turn your entire body toward him, giving him a look. “I know.”
He freezes, stutters, starts. He pushes his glasses up on his nose, his blue eyes wide behind the lenses. “You know?”
You nod. “You don’t need to keep lying to me. I’ll keep your secret. I just wish you had told me first, you know?”
He chuckles awkwardly, shaking his head. “I just-- I wasn’t sure how you’d react, and--”
“I don’t care that you’re dating him, Clark,” you interject, a small smile creeping onto your lips. “It’s cute, actually.”
He blinks, opens his mouth, shuts it again. Opens it. “Wait.” He tilts his head, smiles a little. “You-- What?”
“Come on, it’s obvious!” you start to grin from the sheer absurdity of it. “You’re always getting interviews with him when he won’t do an interview with literally anyone else! And you’re always talking about him, always defending his actions and defending him when Jimmy makes a joke about him! You don’t need to be ashamed of it, I mean, I know the two of you probably can’t be public about your relationship, obviously, but--”
Clark says your name, tries to get a word in, tries to tell you to stop and that you’ve got it all wrong, but you keep going. “Seriously, it’s fine. You don’t need to hide it, not from me at least.”
“Right. Um.” He shakes his head, laughs. “I should-- I’m gonna go.”
“Go,” you shoo him away. “I’m fine, seriously. Go spend time with your hot superhero boyfriend.”
Clark’s cheeks go pink at that, which is basically all the confirmation you need, and you giggle after him, feeling much lighter now that the truth is finally out in the open.
Once Clark leaves, you finish your coffee and search your freezer for some more ice cream. Thankfully, you have a little bit left -- you sort of stocked up on it when The Incident happened -- and you head out onto the fire escape to enjoy the night air.
“Well, hello there,” you reach down and pet Lou’s head. He rarely sleeps on your fire escape, but today is one of those days.
He’s not all that interested in the space once you’re sharing it with him, though, so you watch him scurry away to your neighbor’s fire escape and you roll your eyes after him. Typical.
It’s strange, being on the other side of it now. Sure, it still stings a little, but come on, you can’t compete with Superman. And Clark seems happy. As his friend, you should want nothing more than to see him happy.
And you do. You do want that. Even if it’s a little sad that he can’t be that happy with you. But you’re sure the sting of it will go away in time, as will the crush you have on him.
You’re enjoying the sunset and your ice cream, still laughing to yourself in slight disbelief about Clark and Superman when the latter flies in front of you.
Your spoon clatters onto the metal stairs, scaring Lou and yourself shitless. Superman, however, floats in front of you, unfazed.
“Um,” you come up empty in the words department. You have no clue what to say to your friend’s boyfriend who is also a metahuman who you also, up until about half an hour ago, felt ridiculously jealous of. “Hi?”
“Hello,” Superman replies, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips. He gestures to the empty space beside you. “Do you mind if I…?”
“Oh! Not at all.” You stand up and step to the side, and Superman takes up every bit of the free space. “Look, if this is about you and Clark--”
Superman laughs, the sound light and airy coming from such a large man. “It’s not about me and Clark-- Well, I guess it kind of is.”
“I won’t tell anyone, I promise!” You hold up your right hand as if you’re swearing before a court, your left hand still holding onto the now-melting ice cream. “Actually, should we go inside? Should we be, you know,” you lower your voice, “talking about your relationship out in the open?”
He chuckles again. “Sure, let’s go inside, if that’s okay with you?”
If that’s okay with you. Of course it’s fine, even if a bit weird, and where is Clark? If he went and told Superman that you know about them, why didn’t he just come back with him?
“Sorry for the mess,” you call out as you head through the living room into the kitchen to put the ice cream away. “I wasn’t feeling well,” you grimace, the lie just sounding stupid now, but you’ve said it, so.
You shut the freezer and spin around to find Superman standing in your kitchen, and on the counter next to him are…Clark’s glasses?
You roll your eyes, muttering, “Did he seriously leave these here?” But you swear you saw him leave with them on. “Wait. Is he here?”
“He is,” Superman replies, picking up the glasses and opening them. He laughs, almost only to himself, before working the frames onto the bridge of his nose.
“What are you--?” You blink and narrow your eyes, watching Superman’s face become…Clark’s? That makes no sense. Those are Clark’s glasses, and this is Superman standing in front of you. Two completely different people. “Wait, but--”
“I’m not dating Superman,” Clark, or Superman, says with an amused smile. “I am Superman.”
“But you--” You shake your head, still reeling from the fact that Clark’s face is on Superman’s body. “But you said--”
“I didn’t think you’d believe me without the suit,” Clark explains, dragging the glasses off his nose and setting them down. “You seemed pretty convinced that I was dating him.”
“What else was I supposed to think?” you cry. “You stood me up and blamed it on him!”
Clark-- Superman’s face twists up in genuine remorse. “I know, I’m sorry, and I wanted to make it up to you, but you just kept getting further and further away, until I didn’t even know if you wanted to be my friend anymore.”
“Of course I want to be your friend, Clark, I just,” you shake your head, a bout of dizziness coming over you. You rub your forehead with your fingertips. “Sorry, I don’t--”
“Shoot, no, I’m sorry, here, let’s get you to the couch.”
You have no clue what he’s sorry for, but you let him help you over to the couch all the same. The dizziness passes and you look up at him, at the bright red and blue of his suit, and the fact that he looks like Clark but doesn’t at the same time.
“I don’t usually take them off and on so much around people,” he explains. “They’re these glasses that Four made for me, so I could still have a normal life. They make my face look a little different.”
You nod slowly, because sure, yeah, makes sense, why not?
“I’m really sorry I didn’t tell you sooner,” he says, cramming himself into the same chair he was in before, but somehow, now it looks like he doesn’t quite fit. “I thought I was keeping you safe by not telling you, but then I saw how sad you were, and--” He cuts himself off, shaking his head. “I don’t ever wanna be the reason you’re crying, or frowning, or anything like that. I wasn’t thinking.”
You stare at him, at your best friend, at Superman sitting before you with such an obvious ache in his chest over you being sad, and you can’t help but smile.
“Come here,” you tell him, patting the open space next to you on the couch.
Timidly, he stands and walks over to join you, just narrowly avoiding knocking over the coffee table.
“Sorry,” he whispers, plopping down beside you with a giddy, albeit sheepish, smile.
You throw your arms around his neck, clinging to him, taking a deep breath into his neck. He smells the same as Clark, but slightly different. It’s the suit, you think, but regardless, he smells good. Familiar. Safe.
“I take it you’re not mad at me anymore?” he asks, his arms finally tightening their hesitant hold on you when you don’t let go.
You snicker into his hair, pressing a kiss to his cheek before pulling back to look at him. “I was never mad at you, Clark. It’s impossible for me to be. I was just…sad. I thought we were finally going somewhere, finally getting over ourselves and going on a date, so when that didn’t happen, I just…” You shrug, realizing now that just because he’s told you the truth about who he is doesn’t necessarily mean the two of you are going to date.
He frowns again, one hand coming up to cup your jaw, thumb stroking your cheek. “I’m sorry,” he says again, fingertips grazing your own frown lines and furrowed brows. “I should’ve told you a long time ago.”
“It’s fine,” you murmur, peeling yourself off of him with a little smile that can’t figure out if it wants to be sad or not. “I can’t imagine that you’ve told anyone else.”
“Ma and Pa know,” he says. Then, with a grimace, he adds, “And…Lois.”
“Lois?” you lean away from him. “Lois knows?”
“Only because she figured it out and confronted me one day after work!” he rushes to explain. “She had connected the same dots as you did, except,” he pauses to laugh, “instead of assuming I was dating him, she figured we were the same person. But I told her she couldn’t tell anyone, no matter what.”
You understand that. It’s his secret to share after all, but still. She didn’t even try to defend him once when you told her that he stood you up. She seemed so angry with him on your behalf that you assumed it was for that reason alone.
“If it helps,” Clark lets out a sheepish chuckle, scratching the back of his neck, “she threatened me quite a lot when I told her I hadn’t told you yet.”
That causes you to bark out a laugh. “Why?”
“Because she knows I like you. A lot. It’s embarrassing, honestly, or she tells me it is,” he smiles. “Apparently I uh, looked like a kicked puppy when you wouldn’t talk to me that day.”
You giggle at that, having had the exact same thought. “Yeah, you did.”
“Well,” he breathes, like he’s psyching himself up. “Can I have that raincheck now?”
You hum, trying and failing to tuck the stray curl on his forehead back with the rest of his hair. When it falls back down defiantly, you smile. “Depends. Can we work around your saving-the-world schedule?”
“We can,” he says with a firm nod. “I can be flexible. Can I ask another question?”
You lean your arm onto the back of the couch, your palm cradling your head. “Sure.”
“Can I kiss you?” he asks softly. “Or should we wait until after our date?”
You shake your head. “I don’t think I can wait that long.”
“Thank goodness,” he breathes, leaning forward, one arm snaking around your waist. “Me either. But if you had wanted to, obviously I would’ve, I just wanted to ask first--”
“Clark,” you laugh.
“Yeah?”
“Just kiss me.”
He grins then, and you pull him in despite it, both of you a giggling mess through the first kiss that has been months in the making. After so long of dancing around one another -- in more ways than one, you come to realize -- you’re finally holding his face gently, finally kissing him slow and sweet like honey, and his arms are snaking around you, pulling you into him, almost into his lap entirely.
warnings: pregnancy, innuendos, mentions of breastfeeding, Clark being a major girl dad
summary: Clark becomes the personification of 'gentle giant' after welcoming your daughter into the world
Surely genetics on Krypton were different from earth because why, after nine months of carrying and then sixteen hours of hard labor, did your daughter come out looking like a carbon copy of her father? The same shock of black hair, pale coloring, brilliant blue eyes, the constant need to be held and adored...she was Clark's twin in all aspects.
It only took Clark two weeks to knock you up. He had been relentless with the 'practicing', always pulling you onto the nearest surface and whining about 'how gosh darn good you felt' or how you were his 'good girl'. There was nothing quite like having the indestructible Superman, beaten and bloodied after dealing with intergalactic monsters all day, begging to let him have a taste, just one taste, please. He was a man possessed.
You found out you were expecting when he woke up in the middle of the night from a noise only he could hear. It turned out to be the heartbeat of your unborn child, causing Clark to sleep with his head carefully cradled on your stomach.
True to his nature, he had become clingy tenfold. Not letting you lift a finger and performing tasks before you could even think of them. Every morning began with his joining you in the shower to wash and worship every inch of your body, and every night ended with his massaging your feet and cooing to your belly. You had to practically tackle the man to get him to relax.
And when you began showing...he had taken protectiveness to the next level. He would level every man in sight with a glare, a stark contrast to his usual gentle self. But while you were carrying his child—and with it being so blatantly obvious by the swell under your maternity shirt—he wasn't going to let anything happen. His super senses were turned in sharply to any possible threat and danger. You'd had to drag him away from time to time and if you were feeling particularly bored or needy, you would rile him up enough that he would take you home to take his frustrations out, leaving you content and sated and oh so planning your next outing.
You had unusual cravings during your time being pregnant and Clark was always willing to retrieve them for you. It only took one look and he was flying out the door and into the night. And he wasn't afraid to try them out himself, once or twice turning green in the face and softly excusing him to the bathroom.
When your water broke, he had turned into a mother hen. He called Ma Kent, stressing about what to do. While you were in active labor, he offered his hand, lending you his infinite strength, and kept his lips pressed to your sweaty brow, murmuring soft encouraging words. He had bawled when you heard the first, sweet cry of your daughter.
As soon as she was placed on your chest, red-faced and squalling, he put a shaky hand to her back, reveling in this tender moment. From that time on, his girls had been the only things in his orbit.
She had looked so small, all six pounds and eight ounces, in his arms; a few inches shy of being as long as his forearm. His hands, capable of tearing the world apart, had held her so soft that you fell in love with him all over again.
He was at your beck and call from that moment on, even if it was the middle of the night for a feeding. You were his first priority.
When you started receiving visitors, Clark began acting like a mother hen. Jimmy and Lois came home with him one afternoon, interested in meeting the little girl who had stolen his heart. Apparently he had at least a dozen photos of her displayed on his desk at The Daily Planet.
"She's absolutely beautiful," Lois exclaimed, stroking a finger along the baby's head. "Look at all this hair! You must have had horrible heartburn."
"N-now Jimmy, hold up your elbow some more. Yes, yes, like that. And if she gets fussy you can give her to me." Clark instructed, maneuvering Jimmy's arms until he was satisfied.
"I have held children before, you know?" Jimmy looked offended.
And yet Clark didn't let up, lingering over his friend's shoulder until Jimmy had grown antsy himself, giving Lois a turn.
"Don't let him bully you, Jimmy." You assured, "He's concerned over every little move she makes."
Clark moved to sit next to you, keeping a close eye on Lois as well, and pulled your hand into his lap. "Heaven forbid I actually care about my daughter's welfare."
"You're going to worry yourself sick one of these days," you smiled, knowing fully well that he couldn't get sick.
Lois and Jimmy visited a while longer before heading out. Clark held the baby in his arms once they left, checking her for any harm, much to your amusement and incredulity. "They would never hurt her," you ran your hands down his arms.
"I know. But she's so fragile."
"You're just so large that everything is fragile to you." The first few nights home had been difficult for him. He had stressed over accidentally breaking her and so you made sure to be understanding and gentle.
And now, after six weeks with her in your life, your little family had fallen into a new routine. After patrol, Clark would come home, help you bathe your daughter, then spend some time alone with her in the nursery before putting her to bed. Oftentimes he would tell her stories about his childhood or how he found out about each of his powers. It made you curious as to if she would ever show any signs of her Kryptonian lineage.
Tonight, you found him sitting in the rocking chair, the small bundle curled up on his chest, curious eyes roving about his face, despite only being able to see shapes and blobs. "Did I tell you about that time I first played catch with my Pa? I nearly broke his hand." He chuckled.
The baby only poked her tongue out.
"I know. I felt absolutely horrible. Cried about it when we got home, too. But he took me on his lap and told me that I didn't hurt him intentionally and that he didn't blame me at all. Him and Ma taught me that the world needs more understanding and gentleness."
You sighed from your spot in the doorway, catching his attention though you were sure he'd been aware of you the entire time.
"Come in, sweetheart," he urged, a soft smile curving his lips. You perched yourself on his lap, resting your head on the opposite shoulder your daughter was on. From this viewpoint, you could admire the familiar curve of her nose and curling of her hair.
"How'd you do it, Clark?"
"Hmm?"
"Make her look exactly like you? She has no attribute of mine." You huff, feigning annoyance.
Clark nosed along your scalp, inhaling your soothing scent. "Sure she does."
"Like what?"
"When she sleeps, she makes these cute little noises like you. Her leg thumps like yours does when you're deep in thought. She has your cupid's bow. And don't get me started on her fussing whenever I'm not holding her, exactly as her mother does when I neglect her—"
"Oh stop!" you laughed, swatting at his chest.
Your daughter squirmed, rooting around for something to eat. Clark adjusted you both to let you recline against his front so you could feed her. He watched as you brought her to your breast. "Besides, I can't give her this. This special bond."
"You're Superman; can't you grow a pair of tits?"
"Unfortunately, that is beyond even my abilities." He deadpanned.
"You're an amazing dad regardless of being able to breastfeed her, you know?"
He kissed your neck. "And you're the most amazing mom. I've never seen anyone come so naturally to taking care of a child as quickly as you have. I hope you know how much I admire you."
"You've save the world countless times and you think I'm admirable?"
He leaned back to catch your eye, hand wrapped around your rub while his thumb rubbed underneath your breast. "You're everything wonderful in the world. I love you more than life itself and I love that you gave me a perfect little daughter."
You melted in his arms. He made everything easier without being asked.
