Chapter 5:
Clark slowly made his way down the stairs. When he saw his mom cooking breakfast he took a deep breath, before saying, "Morning."
She turned around to face him, "Good morning, Clark. Sleep well?"
"Um…pretty good."
"That's good," Martha said before turning back to the stove.
They were both quiet for a while after that. Martha finished cooking breakfast and Clark just sat at the counter trying to decide what to say. He gradually made his way over to the table when Martha set out the plates and silverware. She brought over the scrambled eggs and bacon before taking a seat across from Clark.
When Clark couldn't take it any longer, he broke the silence, "Are you upset?"
She looked up from her plate, "About what?"
"Chloe and I being engaged."
Martha set down her silverware and looked at Clark, "Clark, all I ever wanted was for you to be happy." She paused and reached out to take Clark's hand in her's. "And if this decision makes you happy, then I'm happy. But I just want to make sure that this is really what you want. I don't want this to be a rebound move."
"A rebound off of Lana? Mom, I don't love Lana in that way anymore."
Martha took a deep breath and asked, "Are you positive?"
Clark looked his mom right in the eye and said, "Yes, I'm positive. Chloe is the right person for me, I can feel it. And this feeling is stronger than all of my abilities put together. I love Chloe and I want to marry her."
Martha smiled and squeezed Clark's hand, "Then I couldn't be happier. I hope that the two of you have as many happy years as your father and I did."
Clark also smiled, "Thanks Mom."
When Clark was done with his breakfast he put his dishes in the sink, gave his mom a kiss on the cheek, and headed outside to do his chores.
Just as Clark was finishing up his chores he heard his cell phone ring. He pulled it out of his pocket and flipped it open.
"Hello," he answered.
"Hi Clark," Chloe replied, her voice sounding cheerful.
"Hey Chloe."
"Do you have any plans for lunch?"
"No, do you?" Clark asked, a smile crossing his face.
"Well, I have some great news that I want to tell you and I thought that we could go out to lunch."
"Sounds good, what time and where at?"
"Um…why don't you meet me at work in like fort-five minutes?"
"Ok, I'll be there, bye."
"Bye Clark."
00:01:11:49
Clark quickly descended down the steps at The Daily Planet. He was anxious to hear Chloe's good news.
He pushed open the double doors and hurried over to her desk.
"Hi," Clark greeted and leaned over to give her a quick kiss.
"Hey," she replied.
"So, where are we going to eat?"
"I thought that we could try out the new café two blocks from here. I heard that they have great food."
"That's fine with me."
"Since it would probably take as long to get to my car as it would to get to the café, how about we walk?"
"Again, that's fine with me."
"Chloe smiled, "Good, shall we go?"
"After you," Clark said and motioned towards the door.
00:00:12:28
Clark and Chloe walked hand in hand down the sidewalk. They talked about Pete moving back. Chloe noted that it would probably be nice for Clark to have another guy around and Clark agreed.
00:00:02:17
They waited patiently for the light to tell them that I was ok to cross the street. When it finally did Chloe began to cross and Clark noticed that his shoe was untied. He had just finished tying it when he heard a screech.
00:00:00:29
Clark looked up to see a car speed around the corner; it was swerving back and forth. As he realized that is was headed straight for Chloe, he supersped over to her and pushed her out of the way.
00:00:00:00
Just as Clark managed to get Chloe out of the way, he felt his body quickly becoming weak. He tried to super speed out of the way, but he couldn't.
Chloe watched in horror as the car slammed into Clark's body. Chloe couldn't believe her eyes as she saw Clark whirl onto the car and off the back. She waited a second, expecting him to get up. But when he didn't she yelled out his name, "Clark!"
When he still didn't respond she rushed over to him. Chloe's eyes widened in shock as she knelt next to the motionless body. Her shaking hands slowly made their way to his neck to check for a pulse. To her relief there was still a beat, not much of one, but it was still there. She could hear people yelling for someone to call 911, but she couldn't move. She didn't understand how or why this was happening.
"Clark, you can't leave me…." Chloe trailed off as she lifted up her hands from where they had rested on his chest. She could no longer see the color of her skin, her hands were now red……..blood red.
I need a sign to let me know you're here me know All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere
I need to know that things are gonna look up
'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup
When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head
When you feel the world shake from the words that are said
And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels
I won't give up if you don't give up
I need a sign to let me know you're here
'Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clear
I want a reason for the way things have to be
I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me
And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels
I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels
