Chloe looked at Clark and saw the mixture of hurt and disbelief cover his face. She knew that look all too well. How many times in the past did she have that exact look on her face when Clark would get glazy eyed over Lana. She would be sitting right beside him, but she might as well have been invisible.
Sometimes, she wanted to shout at him, "Hey! Over here is someone who just wishes you would see what is right in front of your face!" She sometimes even secretly wished he would get of his own medicine so he would know how she felt as her heart slowly broke into pieces.
She looked over at Clark now and knew that was not at all what she wanted. Never really did. Her heart went out to him to have to go through this. She didn't bring any of this up, of course, as she walked over to him and put her arm around his frame. She didn't need to say anything at all. He might not have known she was there then, but he would know she was there now.
