After they had been driving for about ten minutes Clark pulled her into an ally way that led to a nice apartment building. Chloe looked up in awe at how nice the building was, she had never seen such a beautiful apartment building in the city. Chloe must have really looked like a kid in a candy shop when she heard Clark laugh at her, she looked towards him to find him staring and laughing at her. He looked cute but Chloe had to hide that she thought that, what was this undying hold he had over her? No matter how much she should hate him and be angry with him he always seemed to look good and she wanted nothing but to be with him. She just stuck her tongue out at him and looked back up at the building, "Cla…I mean Kal where have you taken me? This place is beautiful."
"I have taken you home, to my home. I live here, top floor, great view of the city. You think you like it now wait until you see it from my bedroom window. Shall we?" Kal held out his arm for her to link with. Chloe looked back to him with an astonished look on her face, "How was he affording all this?" she wondered silently to herself. She thought she knew where he was going with the whole bedroom window shit but she didn't care. She put her arm in his and followed as he pulled her towards the elevator at the bottom of the building. As they stepped in Chloe looked around and loved how the elevator was a glass one. Just like the Wonkavator in Willy Wonka and he Chocolate Factory. She smiled as she remembered that was hers and Clark's favorite. She was shaking out of her little day dream when she heard him talking to her, "What? I am sorry I blanked out for a moment there. You were right this view is amazing." She said as they stepped off the elevator on the top floor and Chloe got a little shiver through her body as she saw how high up they were.
Kal laughed as she shivered, "Don't be scared I won't let you fall, but it is quite the view, why I took the place. But I was asking you why you had that cute little smile on your face as we were coming up in the elevator." Chloe blushed as he asked her what she was thinking of, she didn't want to tell him she would feel like a loser. So she had to think of something really quick, a great reporter thinks on her feet. "Ahh I was just thinking about umm the fact that I had spent weeks stuck up in my room searching for where you could be when you were not even a town away from me." Chloe let out her breath as he opened the door and let her in. She thought she covered that up quite well.
"I am flattered to know you spent so much time looking for me Chloe. I knew you had feelings for me but that is just pure dedication. Anything to drink?" He just said it all so smoothly and didn't think anything of it. Chloe eyes widened at the mention of her feelings for him, did he really just say that like it was no big deal? She had to recover from it and answer his question, "Umm sure a water or coke sounds good, thanks." She looked at him and looked very hard, it was still her Clark but just he had a different attitude. She didn't think there was any way of completely removing his upraising from him. She watched as he bent down in the refrigerator and grabbed them both drinks. God he still looked good as ever, the jeans he was wearing hung just perfect from his hips and fit him in all the right places. She had to bite her lower lip to keep herself from letting out a little sigh, his shirt, although black and very un-Clark like, looked amazing on him. It was still a button up which Chloe was used to seeing Clark in but it was a nice short sleeved one. It showed off those arms of his nicely, she couldn't help but wish that she could see his stomach. She loved it when she came out to the farm to talk with him or drop something by and he was working shirtless. One reason she loved summer so much, you sweat a lot more which meant less clothing.
Kal had noticed Chloe's staring and couldn't help but like it. Clark, who was still here just buried deep underneath this persona Kal he had created so nobody would find him, had always had feelings for Chloe. Since the day he met her and became her tour guide he had felt something there for Chloe. But she was new and he didn't want to come off like a creep or anything. Plus after he and Chloe became close friends he found it harder to express those feelings, Pete had gave Chloe the 411 on Clark's crush on Lana and Chloe had automatically put up a wall to Clark. He knew she had feelings for him but he was afraid to ruin the great friendship they had come to have and he figured it was just safer to still act as if he was in love with Lana. He had thought that going out with Lana would maybe seal the deal on this whole thing with Chloe but it only hurt her more. She had seen them kissing and was livid with him, as she should be. Why was she even here after that whole ordeal? Because she loved him right, why was Clark such an idiot and had to go and ruin everything? That was why he had run away to escape Smallville and his friends and family. He had put on that red kryptonite ring so he could act out of character and not give a damn. It had been working so far, until tonight when she spotted Chloe in the club with her friends. All his feelings for her came back, along with the ones for his home and his family. But the red kryptonite overpowered that and he acted as Kal.
"So Chloe should I give you the grand tour? I was a good tour guide the first time right? I couldn't have gotten any worse." He leaned over the counter and stared up at her as she was taking in the apartment. Chloe had heard him and had to laugh at his joke. He was quite the tour guide, quite the cute one. She had to shake those visions out of her head. She wasn't with Clark anymore she was with Kal, and as much as she wanted to think Clark was still there somewhere she had to come to reality and realize he wasn't. "Of course you were and I would be delighted to have you as my guide again." Chloe had tried her best not to be so flirty and nice but she just looked into those eyes and couldn't help herself.
"Right well this here is the kitchen as you can see, and what you are standing in is the living slash eating area. But on to the more important rooms, this way madam." He held open his arms in the direction of what Chloe could only imagine as the bedroom, this apartment was very nice though, but after the kitchen and living area what else was there besides the bathroom and bedroom. But she walked up next to him and followed him, she really was just glad he wasn't be too bad with her, she had imagined a lot more attitude. "This here is the bedroom, not much but all it really is, is a place to sleep right? And over here is the great view that sold the place for me. Come over here and look, you'll love it." Kal had moved over to the window and was motioning Chloe to come over. She had to smile at how cute he was being but yet she still wasn't sure if she could trust him. She did give in though and walked over to him and looked out the window. He was right this was an amazing view, "Wow, oh my god you weren't kidding. This is breath taking, I would love getting up to this view and going to bed to this view every night." Chloe all of a sudden felt a warm presence behind her and she knew who it was and she was a little frightened but she liked it at the same time. Then she felt his arms go around her waist and she couldn't hold back her shiver. She had always pictured something along these lines happening between her and Clark but this wasn't Clark, or at least he wouldn't admit it. "How about going to bed to it tonight and waking up to it tomorrow?"
x-So this one took some time for me, I wasn't really sure where to go and how to make it all work. I hope this works I had been planning on making it a Kaloe the whole time but I just didn't know how this would all work. I am a huge Chlark fan but when using this plot line where Clark is Kal I had to make it into a Kaloe so I hope it works. I will try and update it again soon. Thanks for all the nice reviews too, keep them coming!
