"So Lex hit on you. It's been almost two months; I know he's not just
starting to try to woo you. What's with the flowers?" Clark asked when
Chloe finished her story.
"I gave him a chance.and I think.he's not you, Clark, but he treats me better than you ever did." Chloe said.
"Chloe, you can't.that's not." Clark rambled as his face turned a shade of red.
"Clark, stop. Listen. I'm NOT sleeping with Lex. We're not even 'dating'. We're just friends. But.I'm trying to tell you.that you can't be mad, and you can't say I cheated on you.and you can't break my heart anymore." Chloe replied, setting a hand on Clark's shoulder.
"Chloe, it's not like that!" Clark argued.
"Wait, are you ringing Clark?" Lex asked as a shrill sound pierced the air.
"I am." Clark answered, pulling a cell phone out of his pocket.
"Whoa, since when did the Kent's spend money on cell phones for their sixteen year old son?" Chloe asked, astonished that Mr. Kent would relent to such a frivolous gift, even if Ms. Kent tried to persuade him.
"They gave it to me as a 'thank you' of sorts, for staying home and helping them on the farm most of the summer. They new how much I wanted to be up here, with you." Clark cut off quickly as the phone rang again.
"Hello?" His deep voice said into the mouthpiece. "Oh, hey Lana!" He said, his eyes lighting up. "Can I call you back a little later?" He added quickly as he saw Lex shot him a glance. "Bye." Clark said and then hung up.
"Point in case!" Lex growled, furious to see Clark step in his way after everything he'd done to her.
"Clark.this is how it has to be. I love you, and you know I do.but let me go. You had me." Chloe said, shrugged her shoulders. Clark nodded slightly, understanding at last.
