Chapter 2- Heart-toHeart
That night Lana sat in the wing back chair in the Kent's Metropolis apartment. Chloe and Clark sat across from Lana on the couch, Chloe's hand protectively on Clark's arm. Chloe could see the hurt and lost love in Clark's and Lana's eyes, she'd have to be blind not to. She trusted Clark with Lana, he loved only her now and she knew it. That's why she couldn't let Lana hurt him again. She knew they needed to work out all their pain, so she would let them.
"Clark, darling, why don't you and Lana go for a walk while I clean up the dinner dishes?" Chloe suggested.
"That sounds like a good idea," Clark replied, "Let me get my jacket."
As Clark went into the bedroom, Chloe took the opportunity to have a little heart-to-heart with Lana.
"I love and trust my husband, Lana. He's everything to me. You were his first love. You hold a special place in his heart that I can't get into. You are the only one that can hurt him so deeply. He can't handle that again, Lana, and I won't let you try to make him. He may be strong, invincible Superman, but he is sensitive, trusting Clark Kent, too."
"Chloe, I…" Lana started.
Before Lana could finish, Clark returned from the bedroom.
"Ready, Lana?" Clark asked, oblivious to the tension between Chloe and Lana.
"Uh, yeah," Lana said, a bit dazed by Chloe's outburst.
