Poor Bruce! I'm glad Clark's willing to make it up to him, but it'll take some time before Bruce can let him back in. *shakes fist at Clark threateningly* No one plays around with Bruce's heart!
It was strange how thawing toes were more painful than some of the wounds he received at night.
I love the little details in all of this--the copper-topped tables, Alan warming Bruce's feet, observations like the one above. They keep everything grounded within all the sadness.
He was fairly sure she was named after a city - Madrid? - no, that wasn't it. He almost felt sorry for her, named after a city like that. Couldn't her parents at least have given her a proper name?
*can't help giggling*
I'm glad Bruce could forgive him, but no one could ever be asked to forget being dumped...*hugs Bruce*
