Drabble: Forever

Pairing: Bruce/Clark

Author's Note: For mithen. Unbetaed, so point and I shall correct! :)




People said that it wouldn't last. That something would happen, and then he would break Clark's heart. They said he was using him, only taking him to his bed so he had access to Superman in a vulnerable state, and could do experiments and run tests. And poor Superman was a victim of Stockholm Syndrome.

Bruce gritted his teeth when he heard that one.

This was why he hadn't wanted anyone outside of their families to know. He knew that they wouldn't understand. But he was lucky. Clark did. Clark always had, though it had taken him a while to truly do so. It had taken him a while to admit to it all, as well.

But Clark did know. Knew that when he gave his heart, fully, as he had given it to him... that nothing could break it. That it was forever.

Yes! I always love stories where outsiders don't know what's going on and can't possibly understand, but the lovers and close loved ones know. :)

And once Bruce loves, it's forever! :)

Loved this! This is the core of it all- Bruce knows no one *gets* him like Clark. Love your icon!

[starsandsea.livejournal.com]

I'm really glad you liked this! It is the core of it all, no one understands Bruce like Clark. *pets them both*

I love this icon too! It's one of my favorites of rai_daydreamer's art. :)

That was so sweet, poor Bruce having to defend his love for Clark, good thing he chose such an understanding partner. Thanks for sharing, :D

Yay! I'm really glad you liked it! Poor Bruce and Clark, I'm sure they have to go through a lot of this, but they have each other and that's all that matters.

Thank you for commenting! And I love your icon, hee! :D

Oh, I really like this! I so rarely think about other peoples' reactions, but of course people would assume the worst, and of course Bruce would hear of it. I can just imagine him gritting his teeth and trying not to let it get to him... *pets Bruce carefully*

I always love the image of Bruce as reluctant to commit, in part because he knows it's not a light thing for him. His intensity is not given frivolously!

*hugs you* Thank you for this!

Yay! I'm so glad you liked this, Jen! I originally had a different idea for the prompt, but when I started writing it turned all angsty... all of my fic seems to be angsty lately, woe!

*pets Bruce carefully too* It must be so horrible to hear things like that, and not be able to do anything about it all...

I love it so much too! Bruce is reluctant to commit because it's all or nothing and too many people don't understand that. *pets him again*

Thank you for commenting, Jen! And for requesting this! :)

Oh my, that sounds so harsh!

Bruce gritted his teeth when he heard that one.
I don’t blame him at all!

This was why he hadn't wanted anyone outside of their families to know.
I understand.

But he was lucky. Clark did. Clark always had, though it had taken him a while to truly do so. It had taken him a while to admit to it all, as well.
These lines were wonderful! „Clark did.“ - This brought a smile on my face.

Knew that when he gave his heart, fully, as he had given it to him... that nothing could break it. That it was forever.
Forever – AWESOME! :)

That was soooo beautiful Star! Brilliantly written! I loved this story SO MUCH!
Thank you for sharing this.

Nor do I! It's horrible thing things he must hear said about him...

Awww, thank you! I'm really glad you liked this so much! :D Thank you for your wonderful comment, Lis, it made my day!

Poor Bruce, everybody seems to think he has no heart, but he only guards it so well because it´s so very very vulnerable. Of course Clark can see underneath the armour, and he doesn´t even need x-ray vision to do that!

[starsandsea.livejournal.com]

*pets Bruce* That's exactly right, he only hides it because he's so vulnerable underneath all of his armour. But he doesn't have to hide it around Clark. *glomps them both*

Thank you for commenting, Eve! I'm glad you liked this! :)
