hey! I usually post every four days, but since what I posted yesterday was only a prologue I decided to be nice and post the first chapter today! Please R&R!

Enjoy!

Chapter 1:

Lana was just about to open the door to the dorm when it swung open. She instantly recognized the bright red coat and its owner, though he didn't notice her because his back was facing the doorway.

"I'll pick you up at six o'clock then?" Clark asked.

"Sounds good, I'll see you then. Love you," Chloe replied.

"Love you too." Clark turned around, a large grin crossing his face.

"Hey Clark." Lana greeted, almost laughing at the boyish expression on his face.

"Oh, hi Lana." His expression changed to a serious one and he turned back to look at Chloe. She smiled reassuringly and said, "Go ahead, Clark. I'll talk to you later."

Clark nodded and exited the dorm.

"What was that about?" Lana asked, referring to Clark's odd behavior.

"Lana, we need to talk."

"Ok, there's something that I want to talk to you about too."

"Alright, you go first." Chloe prompted and motioned for Lana to sit down.

Lana did so, before beginning the conversation. "Um…Do you remember yesterday when Jason called and told me that he had a surprise for me?"

Chloe nodded so Lana continued, "Well the surprise was a lot bigger than I expected. He told me that he didn't want to lose me again right before he held this up," Lana held up the diamond ring for Chloe to see, "and asked me to marry him."

Chloe's eyes were wide by this point. Not only because she was surprised that Jason would propose, but because her news was oh so similar.

"Well…um…what did you say?" Chloe asked.

"That I wanted to think about it."

"Did you decide yet?"

"That's the thing, I'm torn and I don't know what to do. I think I love him, but he just reappeared in my life and I'm afraid that after I'm around him a lot he'll…he'll change again."

"Lana, I can't tell you what to do, but I can say that after you're engaged you don't have to rush into marriage. You could have a long engagement just to make sure that marrying him is what you want."

"Thanks Chloe. You're always there when I need you, I really appreciate that."

"No problem." She sighed, "That brings me to what I needed to tell you. I'm not going to beat around the bush, but I am going to say that this will probably be as much of a surprise to you as it was to me." Chloe held out her left hand, revealing the ring on her finger. "Clark and I are engaged."

Lana couldn't believe her eyes, or her ears for that matter. Clark and Chloe…engaged?

Jason was sitting on his couch watching TV, hoping that, that would get his mind off of Lana, when he heard his cell phone beeping. He walked over to the counter and picked it up. He quickly opened the text messaged, revealing a text from Lana.

Yes, Jason Teague, I'll marry you. Now come open the door for your fiancée.

Jason set the phone back onto the counter and darted towards the front door. And sure enough when he opened it, there she stood, a smile forming on her face. He scooped her up into his arms and swung her around. When her feet landed on the floor she pulled the ring from her pocket. He quickly took it from her hands and placed it on the appropriate finger.

"I love you, Lana."

"I love you too, Jason."

They looked deep into each other's eyes before their lips slowly met.

Clark slowed to a stop when he reached the small, quiet cemetery. He had decided that he wanted his dad to be the first person that he told about his engagement to Chloe. When he reached his dad's grave he slowly sank to a kneeling position.

"Hi Dad, I'm sorry that I haven't been here very often. It's just so hard, and looking at your grave makes it even harder. Anyway, I came here today because I have some news, good news. I um…I asked Chloe to marry me and she said yes, so we're engaged. I know that you probably always thought that it would be Lana; I thought so too, but not anymore. Chloe's the one for me, she always has been. I just didn't notice it until I almost lost her. Well you know what they say, you never know what you got until it's gone." Clark paused as a single tear streamed down his face. "I miss you….I always will."

Clark stood slowly. "Good-bye, Dad."

He looked at the grave one more time before super speeding out of sight.
