Chapter 18- Clarification
"Hey, Clark," Lana said into the phone.
"Lana! Hi," Clark answered. "What's up?"
"I need to ask you a question," Lana said hesitantly.
"Okay, shoot," Clark replied.
"What happened with you and Chloe last weekend? When I woke up she was laying with you," Lana said quickly.
"Chloe has nightmares," Clark explained. "They can be pretty intense. I woke to the sound of her crying. When she has nightmares, the best thing to do is just to let her know you're there. So, I held her hand and she crawled down beside me."
"Oh," Lana said softly. She still wasn't totally positive that Clark and Chloe didn't have feelings for each other anymore.
"Lana, don't worry. We're just friends," Clark said realizing Lana's doubts.
"I know. It's just that sometimes I forget how truly close you two are," Lana replied.
"You have to understand, Lana. Whatever Chloe dreamed scared so much that she was shaking. It took her over an hour to stop crying," Clark went on.
"I-I had no idea. I'm sorry," Lana answered.
"Don't be sorry. You didn't know. Please don't talk to Chloe about her dreams. She doesn't like people to know, but I thought you should hear it," Clark said.
"I won't. Bye, Clark."
"Bye, Lan."
