Clark thought he wasn’t really that good at relationships. Until you came. Then he knew he would move mountains and walk across the planet for you.

He likes listening to your heart beat while he's at work. It calms him down to know that it's steady. He types on his computer, somewhere in the distance there is Lois and Jimmy talking about morning news.

So, that's what he's caught up doing. Listening to your heart beat from his desk at The Daily Planet, smiling to himself before it drops, brows furrowing.

No. He must be imagening... Right?

He mulls it over briefly before taking an early lunch and speeding home to you, catching you off guard as he rushes over and drops to his knees in front of you.

"Sorry, honey, I just need to—“

He apologizes as he presses his ear to your stomach, freezing as he hears it. Clearly this time.

That's not your heart beat.
