Chloe saw anger rise on his face again at the mention on his real name, but she no longer cared if he got mad. "Chloe my name is Kal…
"No it isn't! You name is Clark, Clark Jerome Kent. You are from Smallville, Kansas and you are the single, adopted, child of Jonathan and Martha Kent. You are going to be a junior at Smallville High this September and you are my best friend. At least you were before you took the easy way out of dealing with your problems and ran away this summer. Now I don't care if you want to stay here and try to forget your home and your family but I am leaving. Why won't you come home? Everyone is worried sick about you, your parents are losing the farm and Lana and Pete are going crazy looking for you. Well Lex would help but we all know what happened to him, but if he was here he probably would have found you already. Please Clark stop acting like this and come home." Chloe felt so much better now that she had gotten that out, it was all the anger she had built up inside after their fight they had had before he ran away. She hated herself for getting so angry with him and not being able to apologize to him before he left but she was proud of herself for not excepting Lionel's offer when she was at such a vulnerable state.
"Chloe you don't understand, you never will. Smallville is no longer my home and those people are no longer my friends or family. I have to erase them and everything I have done in that town. Now please stay with me or just get out." Chloe could tell he was fighting an urge to let his real feelings out but he wouldn't he was as stubborn as his father and sometimes that annoyed her.
"You're right Clark I don't understand, I am not sure I want to. But considering I am from Smallville that means that I am no longer your friend. You must erase me, so go ahead I will just be leaving then. But Clark one question if you are trying to erase Smallville from you past then why the hell are you wearing your school ring?" Chloe had wanted to know this from the minute she saw it on his hand. He had hated that thing after what had happened with his dad after he bought it.
This had caught Clark off guard, he wasn't expecting her to say anything like that. She had loved him for so long he was surprised she was in such a hurry to leave him. The ring question also got him, he couldn't tell her the real reason he had it on but he also had no good lie up his sleeve, he would have to think of one. "Chloe look, I don't want you to go, I want you to stay. I really missed you since I have left. I wanted to apologize for the whole Lana thing, I should've told you and I was going to but… "
"What Clark you couldn't find the balls to tell me, afraid you might break poor Chloe. Well let me tell you Clark I am a big girl and would've taken it fine, I may not like it but there are many things I don't like in my life. Like you running off and not facing your problems like a big boy. Clark you are being a coward, and that isn't like you. Come home and face your demons, the faster and better you fight them, the faster and easier they will go away. But if your not prepared to admit you made mistakes, like any normal human being, and try to fix them then I have no business here with you." There was the attitude she had been expecting all night. She was glad he was finally making it easier for her to be angry with him and yell at him but she wasn't happy he was being so stubborn. She had to make him see the error of his ways and make him come home.
"Chloe, I wanted to tell you I just had so many things going on that day and I couldn't track you down at first. I was planning on telling you, I knew you of all people would be able to take it with stride. The truth is Chloe I was nervous to tell you because that would be like closing the door on us. And I didn't want to do that because I still have feelings for you. You said you wanted to be friends so I decided to respect your wishes and not act on my feelings. I just thought it was what you wanted so I let it be and I just can't go home, please understand Smalville is my past now." Chloe could tell he was trying and she had to admit she was shocked with him. She almost fell over when he announced he had feelings for her, he decided now to tell her? "nice Clark thanks for dropping that now." She thought to herself, what she didn't get was how he couldn't tell she still wanted him. Doesn't he remember her saying she wanted him while she was infected with the parasite. Yeah everyone thought she didn't remember anything from that but she did. She was going to tell Clark but just the look on his face when he asked if she remembered she knew he wasn't ready for her to know. So she let it go, she had learned to cover up knowing why he disappeared all the time and all his uncanny escapes from people and how he always managed to save people in the nick of time.
"Clark you choose impeccable times to tell me things, you know that? Look Clark I still do like you and probably always will but I can't like you while you are like this. Now I have one request of you before I leave, and don't worry I won't tell anyone where you are if you don't want me to." Chloe knew she couldn't let people find him when he wasn't ready to come home. If she couldn't make him come home nobody but his parents could and they had enough troubles right now. She thought she would give him until the end of the summer to go back home, if he didn't she would tell his parents.
Clark bowed his head in defeat, he knew it was no use fighting Chloe on this. When she made up her mind about these types of things she usually didn't change it unless she had a good reason to. And Clark's actions wouldn't let him give her enough of a good reason to make her stay. "What Chloe"
Chloe was surprised that Clark was giving up this easy, he knew her to well to argue with her. She was happy he knew her that well, but she was also sad he wasn't fighting a little more. She knew he had it in him, but she was also as stubborn as him sometimes and she wasn't ready to budge on this. "I want you to give me your school ring, either you erase everything about Smallville and your past or come home with me. There is not negotiable Clark you make up your mind right now."
x-So I am hope that this is good, I had a hard time with deciding wether to make Chloe submit to the Kent charm, I decided that no matter how much she loves Clark she wouldn't fall for this side of him. The making so Chloe know's Clark secret is a thing I thought made the story better, and I wanted her to know everything not just think he was a meteor freak. So I hope you like it, I will keep up with it and try and please everyone. I have enjoyed the reviews, keep them coming!
