As the sun rose in the clear, bright blue sky, Clark sped along, wishing he had been quick enough to catch the bus. He wasnÕt in any mood to do much of anything since Lana had decided he was too dangerous to be around, and Lex was put into the mental institution. True, he still had Pete and Chloe, but losing the girl of his dreams and a close friend didnÕt do much for him. Soon he reached his destination and he met up with Pete on the front steps of Smallville High.
ÒClark, man, whatÕs wrong with you? You look like you got run over by a tractor. Not that that would do any serious damage...Ó said Pete as he noticed the look on Clarks face.
ÒWhat do you think is wrong? Lex is in a mental hospital, and Lana wonÕt come near me! She thinks IÕm not safe enough to be around.Ó Clark answered, ÒI wish that she could know the truth about me, it might help answer some of her questions, at least enough so we could be friends again.Ó
ÒYeah, but you know what your Dad would say to that.Ó imitating Jonathan, pete said ÒThat was very irresponsible Son, you should have asked us first!Ó
ÒHa ha Pete. But I guess he probably would do just that.Ó ~The Torch Office, After school~
Chloe sat typing away at her computer, working on the latest story for the Torch. Finishing the article, she sat back in her chair and stretched her arms. ÒAhh, a story well-done, if I do say so myself.Ó
She saved the document and proceeded to shutdown her computer. She turned around to close the blinds and spotted Pete and Clark outside. Wondering why they were both there so late, she watched them for a minute. As she watched, Clark looked around, seemingly looking for someone. Nobody was on the grounds, it was nearing five OÕClock. Pete threw a football far enough that she couldnÕt see where it landed form the window. Suddenly Clark disappeared. What?? She thought to herself. A second later he reappeared holding the ball. Then he said something to Pete, waved and disappeared once again. She hurried outside and saw Pete heading to his car. Deciding not to mention what she witnessed to Pete, she walked up and greeted him. ÒHi Pete!Ó
Pete turned around, surprised to hear ChloeÕs voice. ÒChloe, Hey! What are you doing here?Ó
ÒOh I was just finishing up an article for the Torch,Ó she said with a big grin.
ÒDo you want a lift home?Ó asked Pete.
ÒI would say yes, but my car is just over there. Thanks though!Ó said Chloe.
ÒOk then, IÕll see you tomorrow at the Talon maybe?Ó
ÒIÕll be there!Ó Chlole assured him. As she walked to her car, she thought about Clark. ÒHe must be a meteor freak, but why wouldnÕt he tell me? I mean IÕve seen enough of them to not die of surprise when I find out about them. I think he and I need to have a little talk.Ó She thought as she reached her car. She got in and, instead of heading home, she went towards the Kent farm.
