Hey Baby- No Doubt: Chloe

Hey Baby Hey

Chloe sighed. She couldn't believe shed agreed to come here tonight. She hated to
dance. Not that she was bad at it, she was just one of those people who preferred to be at
home reading than out late at night. She leaned against the bar and scanned the room.
There was Clark, the object of her affections dancing with Lana. She wasn't surprised. She
knew deep down that the only reason he'd consented to this little trip to Metropolis was
the petite brunette. Another quick look around and Chloe spotted Pete talking to some tall
blonde in a red dress. Figures. Her two best friends ditching her for girls. What else was
new?

Im the kinda girl who hangs with the guys
Like a fly on the wall with my secret eyes
Taking it in try to be feminine with my make up bag
Watching all the sin
Misfit I sit
Lit up Wicked
Everybody else surrounded by the girls with the tanktops and the flirty ways

Being a minor, she ordered some herbal tea from the bartender. It had been nice of
Lex to lend them his city home for the weekend. Lex knew about her crush on Clark and
was only trying to help out. Although, Chloe was positive that Lex hadn't imagined
himself getting sick and Clark taking it as a chance to invite Miss Perfect. She thought
this trip would be bonding time for her and Clark. Too late now. The man behind the bar
handed Chloe her drink. She took a sip, mentally disgusted at all the skimpily dressed
people in the club. Suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder. Chloe jumped nearly
dropping her cup.

Im just sippin on chamomile watching boys and girls with their sex appeal
With a stranger in my face who says he knows my mom and went to my high school

"Chloe?"
She turned around and gasped, "Lex! Hi. Feeling better?"
He nodded and cocked his bald head towards the farm boy and the princess, "Not
having fun, I take it?" He sounded sympathetic, kind of, disappointed.
She rolled her eyes, "Oh yeah LOADS of fun.", she stood to face him, "Listen,
Lex, I appreciate the assistance and all but he just doesn't like me. There's nothing anyone
can do about that. Im just not attractive."
Lex cringed, "Don't say that. Your beautiful, Chloe," he paused, "I mean it."
"That puts you in the majority of one but thanks," she put her tea on the bar,
"You're beautiful too....I mean...wait....that came out wrong..."
Lex laughed, "Sure it did."
She blushed.
"You wanna get out of here?," Chloe raised an eyebrow and Lex laughed again,
"Platonically, that is! You perverted little girl! What are they teaching you in school these
days? Sheesh!"
Chloe smiled brightly.

All the boys say

all the boys get the girls in the back

Clark turned around just in time to catch a glimpse of Chloe sitting at the bar
talking to...was that Lex? When did he get here? He broke away from Lana.
"Ill be right back ok?"
She nodded. Clark squirmed his way through the crowd and caught them just as
they were about to leave.
"Lex! Chloe! Hey!"
They turned and Lex grinned, "Hey Clark. Enjoying yourself?"
Clark knew just what he meant, "Yeah. Where were you guys going?"
Chloe and Lex made the same cynical smirk and Chloe answered, "Now you
care?"
Clark flushed. He'd forgotten all about Chloe, "Im sorry. Its
just...Lana...and...dancing...and..."
"Its okay Clark," Lex interrupted, "I was just taking Chloe outside for bit. Go back
to your cheerleader. We'll see you later."
With that, the pair turned and exited the club.
Clark scratched his head, 'That was odd. They aren't gunna...' but before he could
think about it any further, Lana grabbed his arm and lead him back to the dance floor.
Clark soon and once again forgot all about Chloe and Lex.

Im the one they feed upon
Give a bit a star is born
and if your hot enough U'll get the pass
so you can tell ure friends how you made it back

Lex was giggling uncontrollably and Chloe wasnt amused.
"Im not kidding, high school really is horrible...you have no idea!," She leaned
against the headrest of the passenger seat as Lex speed along the highway, "Ok well
maybe you have some idea but Smallville High is definitely the pits."
Lex nodded, "Go on, tell Dr. Lex all about it."
"Your mocking me."
He turned to face her, "Absolutely not. I am one hundred percent serious." He
smiled, "OK maybe 98% serious and 2% mocking but tell me anyways."
Chloe laughed, "Ok well first, theres the hos," She watched Lex stifle his chuckle,
"they'll just do just about anyone. Thats who Pete usually goes for...and then, there are
the less obvious hos such as..." She stopped.
"Lana." Lex filled in the blank.
"You said it not me."
"She and Fordman ever....?"
Chloe nodded, "Oh yeah. Of course. However, dont mention that to Clark."
Lex frowned, "And you?"
Chloe sighed, "Nope. Im a reporter geek remember? I dont put out like soooome
people."
Lex stared at her, "People know you though. You're not entirely geek."
"Thanks that's real reassuring, Lex."

No matter what they say i'm still the same
Somehow everybody knows my name
and all the girls wanna get with the boys and the boys really like it

Lex looked her up and down. Chloe was indeed pretty, whether she thought so or
not. Unlike Victoria, who was hot and knew it. He liked that certain insecure innocence in
a girl. She noticed his staring.
"What?"
He jumped, "Nothing. Well, you, actually."
"Me?"
"Yeah. Your beautiful."
"You said that already, remember? I made a fool of myself afterwards...any of this
coming back to you?"
Lex's blues eyes darkened, "Why do you shut everyone out Chloe?"
"Huh?"
"Why wont you let me compliment you?"
"Because when you do, I wonder how many other girls you've said the same too."

Jump on the stage
Lets be going crazy
Afterwards myself and one of them gorgeous ladies
There is no need to be acting shady come on baby hey hey baby

"One." He said after a few minutes.
Chloe slouched, "What was the question?"
"How many girls I think are beautiful. Just one."
She sat upright, "What are you saying?"
"Same as Ive been saying all night. Youre beautiful."
Chloe squirmed, "Stop it."
"What?'
"Saying that."
"Why?"
"Because."
"Not a good enough reason, sweetheart"
"Dont call me that, Lex."
He sighed, "Fine," He smiled as she played with the button on her shirt, "Why
weren't you dancing?"
"I dont like to."
"Your a good dancer."
"How would you know?" She eyed him suspiciously.
"I watch you."
"Thats creepy."

Way you rock ure hips you know that it amaze me
Got me off the hook and nothing else does phase me
Can you be my one and only sunshine lady
If no maybe hey baby!

"You know what I mean, Chloe"
"Do I?"
"Youre not like the rest."
She cocked her head, swishing her short blonde hair, "And you are?"
"No," He paused, "Youre still beautiful."
"Why are so insistent on hitting on me?"
"Who says I am?"
"Im 16 and so not sleeping with you."
"Thats ok."

Im just sippin on chamomile watching boys and girls with their sex appeal
With a stranger in my face who says he knows my mom and went to my high school

Lex pulled over the car, "How long are you gunna fight me?"
"As long as its fun."
"Youre such a smart ass."
"Thank you. I happen to like my ass."
"I love it too."
"Watch it, Lex. That kind of love could get you arrested."
"I live life on the edge."
Chloe smiled, "I bet."
Lex leaned close to her in his seat, "You have no idea."
Chloe responded, "Id like to find out."
And then, it exploded. All the tension between them burst and Lexs lips met
Chloes in a harsh, feiry passion. Stars blasted, planets imploded and the entire world
stopped for that one moment in time.
