The scream stopped abruptly and Lex’s heart lurched. He ran through the halls, rushed into the study, and nearly gagged at the stench. Clark was curled in blood and feces on the floor.
Lex hurried to him. “Clark…”
“Hey,” Clark said weakly, with a weary smile. “There’s someone I want you to meet.”
Lex stared wide-eyed at the squirming infant Clark held. With trembling hands, he accepted her from Clark and cradled her tenderly in his arms. Tears fell when she let out her first cry.
He was never so glad that the storm caused him to cancel his flight.
Think we might ever get the rest of the story that goes with this part? Very, very nice. :)
