Bruce settled on the sofa, in his arms, and Clark could not resist pressing a kiss to his dark hair.

He couldn't imagine going to so many parties as Bruce did, doing and saying increasingly stupid things...

Bruce sighed and sat up, looking weary. He smiled wanly at him, and Clark smiled gently back; he understood. A flash of gratitude shone in Bruce’s wolf blue eyes, then he stood and went down to the cave, to recover, to be alone.

Clark stayed on the sofa. They had not even exchanged a word, he realized. They did not have to.

Whee! Thank you so much for this lovely drabble!!

This sounds so true, Bruce needs the time alone to find himself and refocus on what gives his life meaning. (Don´t we all?) And who would better understand this than the man who calls his own retreat the Fortress of Solitude?

Ooh, this is wonderful, Star! Clark understands what an introvert needs: time to re-charge the batteries after being around so many people! :)

Exactly! Clark and Bruce understand each other, and their need to sometimes be alone, very well... :)

Thank you for commenting, Eve! :)
