Martha and Jonathan Kent looked up, surprised, at the knock on the door. A quick glance communicated, through unspoken marital code, that neither of them expected anyone.
Jonathan was the first to reach the door, opening it cautiously. Visitors after 9pm, on these dark roads... well, who knew what to expect?
When he looked out, he saw Lois Lane smiling nervously at him. "Lois?" he asked, startled.
Martha peeked around her husband's sturdy frame. "Lois? What are you doing here? Not that we're not pleased to see you, but... how did you get here?"
Jonathan looked past her into the darkness, and spotted his son, wearing the costume his wife had made. That explained how Lois had gotten there, but not why. "Uh, hello, Superman," he stammered, determined not to ruin his son's cover.
Lois smiled a little more broadly at that. "Sorry to disturb you..."
Superman stepped forward, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Lois had some things she wanted to talk to you about." He paused, then added with a grin, "Hi Dad, hi Mom. Can we come in?"
The End
See, just a fluffy vignette, but I had fun with it. And the title's kind of a play on words; the revelation is on Martha and Jonathan. Please don't throw anything at me! <g>
