Blind Chloe/Clark love For : Nette, because she will always be my partner in crime. ;-*

I had a dream this evening. Curled up in the soft blue blanket that my father wrapped around me. You finally said the words that I had waited unknowingly to hear. But there in the darkness, as I slept, I heard you start to speak.

"I want to let you in on a secret. I'm not who you think I am. In fact, my disguise is so thin I'm surprised you haven't seen right through me. I'm the girl of your dreams masquerading as your best friend. "

I don't want to disturb, for fear that you'll stop. Each word sends a delightfull pang through my heart. It's hard for me to keep a straight smile, to not sit up and kiss you. Even though I feel weaker than I've ever been in my life, at this moment, I could fly from the words you speak. You take a pause and my eyes open for just a moment to watch you. You're wiping tears from your eyes.

What dream is this to have you crying?

"I may not be the one you love today, but I'll let you go for now, hoping one day you'll fly back to me. Because I think you're worth the wait." Your hand's brushing my hair away and I go to speak your name...

"Lana." What? What am I saying? Of all words to burst out with at the worst of times. Whose controlling this dream anymore? You take in a gasp and leave, and I'm pulled back into deep sleep.

But as I look at you now, I wonder if it was a dream. Was it real? Do you love me? I try to search your eyes, but you're closely gaurded. Heaven's gates are in your eyes and they've shut in my face. Don't you know how I feel? For this disguise is as false as you said yours was. If I had my way, I'd take you in my arms and kiss you. Hold you close and never let you go. Say your name, possess it like no other can. But you are my friend, and that's the role you want. The dream I had was merely that.
