(Roll over baby
The time has come
To make a little more room)
Lana made her way up the stairs of the loft, Clark greeting her cheerfully. She still wore her formal attire from Lex's reharsal wedding, Clark donned the complete opposite.
"Sit," she ordered, joking.
"Want me to play dead too?" he rebounded, planting a soft kiss on her cheek. They sat on that couch, Clark's clingy-ness constrasting majorly with Lana's distant apperance.
"Clark.. listen.. we need to.."
"Talk."
"Is it that obvious?"
(I've hung around you
It's getting tough
I think I'm gonna break down soon)
He said nothing, just looking at her. Taking every aspect of Lana Lang in, waiting for her to speak. She felt.. worshiped. Like some sort of untouchable goddess. The way he was so careful with her, so afraid she'd break..
"I'm starting to think.. us.. was a mistake," she said in one breath.
(Cuz I remember
Crying in the park
It was getting dark
Suddenly I looked up
You were my sky )
"Shh," he leaned into her, speaking softly, "It's not. I care about you Lana.."
I know," she inched away, "But It's not fair for you.." "What are you talking about?" he looked puzzled.
(So go on
And sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool, baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
Got to the station a little too late
Such a shame
Just missed the train
Just missed the train )
"You need someone who can love just as much as you love me," she looked at him, "It's not that I don't care about you Clark. It's the complete opposite. I can't return all these feelings you have for me.."
He touched her face lightly, "I.. I.. I love you Lan.."
She brushed his hand off, "I know you do. You're a beautiful person Clark, and someday maybe you'll find someone who can return all of the love you have..I'm just not that person."
(Be quiet angel
Don't make a sound
Just save it for a rainy day
Oh can't you see me
I'm such a mess
Just trying hard to find my way
You remember wasting all the time
We were feeling fine
Though we couldn't walk the line
We were all right )
"I want you to be happy.." she continued, looking at him. He looked so torn, heartbroken, speechless, "I'm sorry."
(So go on
And sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool, baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
Got to the station a little too late
Such a shame
Just missed the train )
She kissed him on the cheek, "Love you.." gathering her handbag, she ran down the stairs.
An unexpected face stood on the landing. Chloe. She looked understanding and nodded. Lana nodded back, as if giving her permission to go. She brushed past her, walking up the stairs. Clark sat on the couch, looking heartbroken.
(Oh, why'd that train just pass us by
Didn't anyone see
We were stuck at the light
Or we would've made it on time )
She stood silently for a few minutes, and then spoke, "So, Clark.. you and Lana.."
"Yeah, sorry I didn't tell you. Y'know, I broke our promise about being honest with each other and all.. Things didn't work out anyway.."
"She dumped you. I heard the whole thing. Fiesty little thing, eh?" she sat beside him, trying her best to look like she understood why he and Lana had to hide their relationship from her.
"Chloe.. I made a huge mistake with Lana. You, you were always there for me when I needed you.. you're my best friend.."
"It's not that I'm not flattered Clark, but what are you trying to say?"
"I never was in love with Lana, just the idea of her. It's always been you," Clark said, looking deeply into her eyes and leaning in.
Chloe dodged him, and stood up, "Wow. Okay. This just got very uncomfortable."
Clark looked confused, "I thought you had feelings for me." "Exactly. I HAD feelings for you, but that's ancient history. We both know very well where we stand with each other! What am I, your back-up plan or something?"
"I was thinking because things with Lana blew over.."
"That you'd expect me to let you hurt me again? No Clark. The only reason I'm here is because Lionel Luthor just asked me to do some research on you, and I have no idea WHY he'd be interested in you.. and.. god, why am I telling you this. Clark Kent, you're a pig!" she ended her frantic ramble by storming off as a certain pink piece of paper slipping out of her pocket onto the wooden floor.
'It's weird. The way Lana tried to give me a chance with Clark like that. Right when he was at his worst: freshly dumped by Miss Lana Lang. I almost felt like I could have kissed her for giving me that chance. I chance to tell Clark -exactly- how I felt.'
(So sleep darling
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool baby
It doesn't matter anyway
I'm so sorry
We got to the station a little too late
It's such a shame
We just missed the train..)
