"I didn’t want to take the risk of you doing that to Gabby. I mean, if she never knew you…well, there’d be nothing to miss. Especially if all you were going to do was walk away again.”
See, this I can absolutely understand. It's one thing to let a man break your own heart. It's another to invite him to break your kid's heart. Her first duty wasn't to Clark, after all, it was to *Gabby*. And mommies don't always think straight when it comes to protecting their kids!
"And don’t think for one second I walked away from you because I didn’t care about you. I left you because I was always putting you in danger, and I’d rather have you alive and hating me than by my side and dead. Davis came way, way too close to killing you, and if it hadn’t been for Jimmy…” he stop and drew in a ragged breath. “There was no way I was going to let you die, too.”
LOVED this. For all the reasons you already know! :-)
"“I’d never have slept with you if I wasn’t in love with you,” he said urgently, squeezing her hand."
SQUEEEEEE! So much love for that line! Now I totally heart you again, Clark, you ol' softie!!
"“It’s because I was making love to the woman of my dreams, who had been masquerading as my best friend for years,” he explained with a smile."
Gah! I have died and gone to heaven!!!!
"“We are crazy,” he soothed, stroking her hair tenderly, “but then, things always were kind of crazy between us. Crazy, but amazing.”
That's for freaking sure! And they ARE amazing, that's why we LURVE THEM!!!!!
"We’re a family now, and we deserve to be happy. Can you handle that?” She smiled, tears glistening in her eyes. “I think so, yeah.” “Good,” he said with a grin as he carried her towards the bedroom. “Because I plan on making you very, very happy.”
YAY! I don't know why, but I got an image of Clark doing his Jack Nicholson impression: "You can't handle the happy!" *snicker* So glad he decided to be a hero here and save the day, saving THEM!
