A/N: So, This doesn't actually fit into the show chronology, but I had the idea and decided that I might as well write it. It contains a lot of personal experience in the reaction to sleep deprivation. Please review or email: smllvllchic703@hotmail.com Let me know if I should add Clark's POV. Thanks.

A/N 2: The part between ** is Chloe's dream.hopefully it will show up in italics as well.

Chloe POV Sleep is good....No! Sleep is bad! Awake is Good! They should record high school math classes and sell it as a sleep aid. I have to think of something interesting to stay awake. Looking around...apparently Pete's having trouble too, Lana's fully awake of course, Clark is resting his head on his hand. Clark...he looks so cute. He could keep me awake...No! Math! I have to keep my mind from wandering. Everyone's getting up, the bell rang while I was zoned out. Clark's coming over here...hmm...He smells really good...Ahh! I'm grinning like an idiot! I have to play it off. "Chloe, are you ok? You look kind of out of it." "Yeah, Clark, I'm fine, just kind of sleep deprived." There, that was good, we can go to lunch now, get some caffiene and regain some form of functionality. Clark's looking at me funny...if I smile at him maybe he'll stop. Well, that worked, now he's smiling at me. I love his smile....mmm...he's so gorgeous. How did we get to the cafeteria? I must be more tired than I thought. Well, caffiene can only help the situation...Mt. Dew City, here I come! I feel a little more awake now. "Chloe, are you sure 3 cans of Mt. Dew is a good thing?" "Well, since it's the only thing short of making out with you that will keep me awake, I'd say yeah." Holy Crap! Did I just say that out loud? Judging by the look on Clark's face, I'd assume yes. "What did you just say?" "Ha, just seeing if you were awake." Good save, let's hope he buys it. So, I think I've decided that sleep deprivation, sugar, caffiene, and Clark's presence don't mix well. I'll have to remember that. Now I have a free period...I'm going to go work on the Torch. Clark's coming too, that's good, but not...oh well, we'll see. Ok...Typing, concentrate...Clark is so hot! Wow, my hands are shaking really badly. I think I'm going to lay my head down and rest for a little while. Sleep... *Clark is coming over to me...this is it, I'm going to tell him how I feel. I'm opening my mouth to say it, but he places his finger across my lips to stop me. He moves closer and looks deep into my eyes. "Chloe, I have something to tell you that I should have said a long time ago." "I have something to tell you too, Clark." "I need to go first or I won't be able to say it. I love you, Chloe, I have for a very long time." "I love you, Clark. I was about to tell you." Clark leans down to me as I close my eyes and strech up on my tiptoes to meet him in the middle. Just as our lips are about to meet, I hear Clark's voice.* "Chloe, Chloe, wake up! The bell is about to ring." I open my eyes and see his face right in front of mine. I wonder what he'd do if I kissed him right now...no! I can't do that! Clark is giving me a strange look again, I wonder why...oh well, that was a nice dream. There's the bell, off to history class. I feel better now after my nap.
