A/N My first ever Smallville fic. I love Chlollie, but I felt I had to write this because I think Chloe and Bart are so cute. They both deserve happiness and what better way to get it than with each other? I think it's a first, but im not sure. Anyways enjoy. And if you review, I will be sure to add more.

Chloe could barely move. She stood in front of the Daily Planet still in shock. He said he loved her. That it was over between them. That she was who he wanted. But now Chloe knew it was all a lie. She couldn't believe she hadn't seen the signs before. Now they glared at her like bright neon.
Chloe smiled as she looked at Jimmy. "So are we on for dinner and a movie tonight?"
Jimmy shifted nervously, "Sorry Chlo, but uhh, I have some work to do tonight at the Planet. Can I rain check for another time." He gave her one of his trade mark grins.
Chloe was a little disappointed, but she didn't let it show. How many times had she blown Jimmy off to do work at the Planet, or to help Clark and JLA with some secret mission. She couldn't be mad at him for doing it to her once is a while, it was only fair.
"Sure, I have some work to do anyways. Ill see you tomorrow." She kisses him on the cheek before she leaves the Talon.
Chloe felt so stupid now, it was right in front of her and she never saw it coming. Of course Chloe couldn't blame Jimmy. Why would he want plain old Chloe when he could have her.
Chloe walked into the Planet with a smile on her face and a picnic basket full of food in her hands. She planned on suprising Jimmy since he had been so buisy with work lately. She had gone all out for this night. She made sure that she and Jimmy would be the only ones at the Planet, and she had made all of his favorite foods, plus bought the most expensive wine she could afford.
Chloe was about to step into the office were Jimmy was working when she heard a feminine voice giggle. That couldn't be right though, she thought. She had made sure that no one else would be working. Fear crept into her heart, but the reporter in her wouldn't let her turn away. She had to get a closer look.
She inched towards the door as quietly as she could. She peeped threw the glass and couldn't believe what she saw. Jimmy, naked, on top of an equally naked Kara. Chloe let out a gasp, which alerted the two nude bodies to her prescence. Kara looked smug, with a smile that told Chloe she wasn't the least bit bothered that they had been caught. And Jimmy, he looked like a deer caught in headlights.
Chloe had to get out of there, so she turned and ran as fast as she could.
And that's why she was Standing in the rain outside the Planet right now. She knew she had to hurry, she could hear Jimmy running down the stairs. So she pulled out her cell and dialed a number.
She couldn't call Clark, he was with Lois, they had finally noticed each other and were always making out. It made Chloe want to gag now. Not that she wasn't happy for her cousin and best friend, but having your heart trampled on kind of made it hard for her to be happy for them when she was in so much pain. She couldn't bear watching them paw at each other right now.
She couldn't call Oliver, he was with his new girlfriend Lana. It had been suprising when they got together, but oddly they fit so well. She knew about his Green Arrow alter ego and was fine with it. Lana had actually started helping the JLA get more input on Lex. Being his ex-wife did have its advantages. She knew Lex better than anyone.
She couldn't call AC or Victor, she didn't know them that well. And it seemed odd to call them about this. It was a personal matter after all. Not that they wouldn't want to help, Chloe just didn't feel she could go to them with something like this. She didn't want there pity. And she knew that's what she would get, even if they didn't mean to pity her.
So she called the only other person she knew she could trust at that moment.
"Bart, its Chloe, I cant explain but I am at the Daily Planet and I nee-" She never got to finish her sentence because not a second later and he was there. Worry evident on his features.
"Chloe-licious, whats wrong?"
Chloe didn't have time to explain, she looked towards the stairs at Jimmy who was approaching quickly and then back at Bart. He understood immediately and scooped her into his arms. Within half a second they were gone. Racing towards his apartment in downtown Metropilos.
