Chloe paced back in forth in Clark's barn. Her dress, originally perfect, was tattered and dirty from the walk here. An hour ago, her and Clark's lips almost touched. It was almost the most perfect moment in her life. Then the tornadoes came; and Clark left. Chloe heard footstep coming up the stairs. She felt a rush of nervousness and rage as she saw the top of Clarks head approaching.

"Chloe, what are you doing here?" God, Clark can be such and idiot, she thought.

"What am I doing here? I've been waiting here for an hour for you! You ran out in a tornado! Did you not think I would worry? Did you not think I would be upset?"

"Chloe…"

"No Clark! Let me talk. When you asked me to the formal, I was walking on air. For a moment, my life was utterly perfect. But now I woke up and realized that you and I; we're not meant to last. You and Lana are destine to be together and I realize that now. I'm sorry for…for… complicating your life. I'm so sorry…"

Chloe couldn't finish because tears rolled from her eyes. She felt like such an idiot for thinking she and Clark actually had a chance. Chloe turned and began to run out of the barn. As she neared the stairs, Clark grabbed her arm and pulled her to him.

"Chloe, don't you ever think that you are complicating my life. I didn't ask you to the formal on default. I wanted to. The only reason I left was because my friend's life was in danger. Chloe, when I found out you were missing last month, it tore me up inside. It made me see the light. I want to be with you, Chloe. I want to do this…"

With that Clark pulled Chloe into a passionate kiss. Chloe began to kiss him back but pulled away.

"Clark, as much as I want to, I… I can't do this. We're not going to last. I'm sorry."

"I want to try. Look me in the eyes and say you don't want to try this out. I cant go on with you just as my friend any longer. Please, Chloe, give this a try. Give us a try."

"Clark…"

Before Chloe could finish, Clark cut her off by pressing his lips against hers. After they pulled away, Chloe looking at Clark; his eyes were so sincere, so thoughtful and beautiful.

"So, what do you say?"

"I'd say this…" Chloe said before pulling Clark's lips to her own. For once, Chloe actually felt like things were actually going her way. For once, Chloe Sullivan was kissing Clark Kent and everyone and everything seemed to disappear.
