Chloe looked up at Clark oddly.
"Clark, what is it?"
Clark inhaled deeply.
"Please Chloe, just sit down."
Very reluctantly, Chloe walked over and sat on her bed. She then returned her gaze to Clark. Clark was making small paces back and forth fighting with himself internally on whether or not he should actually tell her. He had his hand rubbing the back of his neck. He wasn't sure how he was going to tell her this, and that was what was bothering him.
"Chloe, you know how you used to keep that wall of weird in the Torch office?"
Chloe was puzzled, where was this heading. She just nodded her head
"Yeah, it's a little hard to forget when people are trying to kill you or your friends ever other week."
Clark gave another weak grin.
"Yeah, true. Well you figured out that the meteor rocks are what was causing them to behave the way they did."
Clark paused for a moment
"You have to promise me Chloe, too never, ever tell anyone what I am going to tell you. I need you to swear to me you won't"
Chloe just stared at him
"Clark, what do you mean?"
Clark just shook his a little as looked directly into her eyes
"Say it, Chloe, I can't tell you unless you promise."
Chloe nodded her head a little
"All right, I swear I wont Clark."
Clark just took a deep breath.
"That meteor shower that happened years ago, it wasn't exactly what it seemed. , and neither am I. I'm from a planet called Krypton, and those meteor rocks aren't really meteor rocks, they are kryptonite. I have certain abilities too. Super strength, speed, heat vision, x-ray vision, hearing. I came to earth in a spaceship during that meteor shower."
Chloe was just staring at him
"You mean, that you're an alien Clark?"
Clark gave a slight nod
"Pretty much."
Chloe then appeared to be in a deep thought
"So, your telling me that Im carrying a half alien child?"
Clark nodded.
"That's why I told you Chloe, I don't know what sort of effect it might have on you, I developed some of my abilities when I was really young, I just never got a good handle on them until a couple years ago."
Chloe just looked at him and shook her head a little.
"This is a lot to take in Clark, it almost sounds too hilarious to be real"
Clark just watched her as his voice dropped a little.
"Its real Chloe, I wouldn't make something like this up. Also there is something you need to be careful of. You need to watch yourself around kryptonite. I don't know if you being human will be enough to block the effects that the kryptonite will have on his Kryptonian half. When I get around the rocks, they have adverse effects on me. Green kryptonite is the only thing that can harm me, prolonged exposure makes me feel really weak and sick, red kryptonite brings out a darker side of me, it was the red kryptonite that was causing me to act the way I did when we got the school rings there."
Chloe just listened to him. She knew he couldn't make something like this up, it just wasn't something Clark could do.
"All right Clark, I believe you. Just as I said, this is a lot to take in, and, I need to just process it all. I am feeling tired too."
Clark nodded
"All right Chloe, I'll let you be. I'll talk to you later."
With that, he walked over, and gave her a kiss. He then let himself out while Chloe started to curl up in the blankets. She was just started to fall asleep when she felt an odd tingly sensation coming from her stomach, about the area of it that her womb was, the exact spot that the baby was in. The tingly feeling kept getting a little stronger. Chloe wasn't sure what was going on, so she pulled back the blanket to check if she could see anything.
