Summary:  She's not supposed to love him anymore ... but she does.
A/N: Inspired by a Bryan White song - lyrics are at the end

 

She sat on the floor amidst the photographs in the bedroom. It had been months since the divorce was final, and now it was time. They’d been married three years when he started to drift away. There were long nights at work, weekends on assignment. They’d finally decided that it wasn’t right for either of them. They weren’t happy anymore. They’d divorced on good terms, and still spoke every once and a while.

 

She put all the photographs into boxes and stored them under the bed. Her friends were always urging her to go out with them, but she never agreed. She didn’t want to tell them that her heart still belonged to him. She slipped off her simple band and stood up, dropping it in the dresser drawer. 

 

She’d been given the house in the divorce settlement, but it was hard to live there. Every room held a memory, a piece of their life together. 

 

So, here she sat, on the floor in the bedroom … unable to sit in the bed; she still remembered their nights together in that bed. She knew that she was wrong in letting him go. Now he was happy and she was here, stuck in the memories.

 

Clark had found happiness … with Lex. They’d invited her to their commitment ceremony, and she’d gone. She sat there and watched as the man she loved married someone else … and left.

 

Now he was happy, living in Metropolis with his husband, working at the Daily Planet. And she wasn’t supposed to love him anymore … but she did.

 

 

"I'm Not Supposed To Love You Anymore"

By Bryan White

We agreed that it was over
Now the lines have all been drawn
The vows we made begin to fade but now they're gone
Put your pictures in a shoebox
And my gold ring in a drawer
I'm not supposed to love you anymore

Now Sherry says she's jealous
Of this freedom that I found
If she were me; she would be out of the town
And she says she can't imagine
What on earth I'm waiting for
I'm not supposed to love you anymore

Oh I shouldn't care and wonder where and how you are
But I can hide this hurt inside my broken heart
I'm fighting back emotions that I've never fought before
'cause I'm not supposed to love you anymore

Now I'm writing you this letter
And it's killing me tonight
That I agreed when you believed it wasn't right

And I couldn't sleep up on the bed
So I'm down here on the floor
Where I'm not supposed to love you anymore

Oh I shouldn't care and wonder where and how you are
But I can hide this hurt inside my broken heart
I'm fighting back emotions that I've never fought before
'cause I'm not supposed to love you anymore
I'm fighting back emotions I've never fought before
'cause I'm not supposed to love you anymore
