"If I told you to prove it, how would you?" Chloe asked Pete from across
the Torch office.
"What?" Pete replied absentmindedly.
"You told me I shouldn't settle for.well, Clark. You said you could give me more. How could you prove it?" Chloe asked rather calmly.
"Do you even have to question my feelings for you?" Pete said, looking up from his computer sharply.
"I've been around the block. I know you can be an awesome, fantastic, amazing friend, but how can I know you'd be any better than Clark?" Chloe said, letting the words flow once she got started. "You could 'get me' and then drop me as soon as someone better looking or funnier or someone in your neighborhood came running." Chloe said, looking down as her eyes flitted back and forth between the article she was transcribing and the computer screen.
"Because I'm more than that. I'm more than what I seem, and I thought you knew that." Pete answered, looking at Chloe apprehensively.
"I." Chloe lost her words as she looked up at Pete with tears in her eyes. "I'm sor."
"No, don't!" Pete cried, sliding his chair next to Chloe's. "I don't want to be the reason you cry. The only guy worth your tears won't even make you cry." Pete said wisely, as if he'd consoled many a-crying girls before.
"That was a nice line." Chloe said with a hint of a smile on her face.
"You learn after seeing your sister dumped a few times. But I meant it." Pete said, wrapping his arm around Chloe's chair while they were both lost in thought.
"I know.you're a lot more than a fancy line.most of the time." Chloe grinned.
"Thanks. I think." Pete said, beaming at Chloe. "What would you do if I could prove it?" He asked abruptly.
"Depends on how you did it." Chloe teased.
Pete smirked and leaned into Chloe swiftly, sliding a little on her lip gloss. He recovered gracefully, trailing an arm down her back and reacting accordingly when Chloe smacked his hand away from her butt without breaking their linked lips.
He tasted her lip gloss as he tried to open her mouth delicately, then gaining more momentum as she gave in immediately. He pressed against her lips harder and harder until his own lips burned, but neither of them seemed to mind.
Once he was done discovering every inch of her mouth, he pulled back to let Chloe breath.
"How can I tell you how terribly sorry I am for ever doubting you?" Chloe asked.
"Prove it." Pete replied.
"What?" Pete replied absentmindedly.
"You told me I shouldn't settle for.well, Clark. You said you could give me more. How could you prove it?" Chloe asked rather calmly.
