JUST FRIENDS, FOR SOME
Pairing: Clark/Lana and Pete/Chloe
Summary: In this chapter, Clark and Lana set up a date for Pete and Chloe.
"So, Chloe, are you guys going out now?" Lana asked Chloe over the phone.
Chloe laughed. "Oh, no. I don't know why I said that. It just kind of happened. Pete and I aren't going out."
"Why not?" Lana asked, obviously disappointed.
"Because. We're just friends."
"Well, that's what you told me about Clark a while ago, too!" Lana reminded her.
It was silent on the other line for a second. "I guess…"
"You should go out with him. He's a really nice guy, and he really likes you. I'll tell you what. You think about how you feel about Pete tonight, and you'll tell me tomorrow. K?"
"Okay." Chloe agreed, and hung up the phone when she heard the other line click.
-The next morning, at Smallville High
Lana was rushing down the halls, looking for Chloe, when she bumped into Clark. "Sorry, Clark!" She paused a minute and they began walking down the hall together. "Have you seen Chloe?"
Clark shook his head. "No, not today. Have you seen Pete?"
"Nope. Why do you need to talk to Pete?"
"Okay, don't tell him this, but I'm trying to get him to ask Chloe out on a date."
"Really?! I'm trying to get Chloe to tell Pete how she really feels. I know she likes him." Clark smiled at her. They stopped. "Shhh…. Here they come."
Chloe and Pete walked up to the two high-schoolers. "What's up, guys?" Pete said cheerfully. Him and Chloe both had huge smiles on their faces.
"Chloe, can I talk to you for a sec?" Lana said, and pulled Chloe away from the group.
"So, Pete," Clark began, "what's with the huge smile?"
Pete smiled even more. "I asked Chloe out and she didn't laugh!"
Clark laughed at this. "What'd she say?"
Pete pumped his arm up in the air and shouted, "YES!"
Chloe looked over at the two boys giggling.
"What's going on?" Lana asked Chloe.
Chloe smile grew. "Pete asked me out! And I said yes!" she was practically jumping up and down.
Lana smiled. "That's great! So you like him?"
"Yes…" Chloe mumbled.
Lana and Chloe walked back over to the boys. "Congratulations!" Lana said to Pete.
"Same to you," replied Pete. Lana looked confused.
"What do you mean?"
Pete nodded at Clark, and Clark turned to Lana. He began to lead her away from the group, but not before he said, "Lana, can I talk to you for a second?" and she said yes.
They stopped near a water fountain. "Lana," Clark began, "I really like you. And I was afraid to ask you out all the time, because if you were happy with Whitney, then I didn't want to ruin it. I want you to be happy. Lana, I…." Clark said, nervous. "I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
