Clark closed his eyes as he heard the words he was dreading, he opened them up to look at Chloe. She looked so scared, like she was afraid he would hurt her or be angry, but he wasn't. He knew she would've found out eventually and he had wanted to tell her since the day he met her. He just felt so comfortable around Chloe, like he could tell her everything and she wouldn't care. But his parents had refused to let him tell her because they didn't think she could keep her reporter's pass at home. Clark knew that Chloe was anxiously awaiting his response but he wasn't sure what to say, he wanted to let her know he wasn't angry but he wanted to know how she had found out. "Hey Chloe why don't we go and talk about this inside where it is warmer and we can sit." He moved his hand to the door knob, just to the right of Chloe's hip. He turned the knob and the door opened and Chloe started to fall back. Clark quickly caught her and supported her.
Chloe had been waiting, biting her lip so hard she thought it was going to start bleeding soon. When finally Clark spoke, but all he said was they should go inside. She agreed because she was freezing and thought that sitting was a better position for this conversation. She didn't expect the door to suddenly open and she started to fall back, she relaxed though when she felt Clark's arms around her, holding her up from falling. She smiled up at him, "My own personal superhero" she had hoped that would jog his memory from the last time he had stopped her from falling.
Clark was trying his best from not looking at Chloe's cleavage, it was just right there in his face as he was holding her up and it was hard not to see in that top. Then he heard her say those words to him again, he had heard them once before but thought she didn't remember that time. He remembered she had said that the last time he had to catch her from falling, she was of course infected with a parasite and he was on red K but still he liked the sound of it. He didn't know how to react to that, was she telling him that she did remember parts from that experience or was it just a freak thing that she happened to say twice. He would ask her about it later, but now they needed to have a very important discussion. He helped her back up to a standing position and led her over to the couch, he placed his hand on her lower back not even thinking but when he realized it he didn't want to remove it in fear of being rude.
Chloe was just waiting for Clark to say something, but he never did but she could tell he remembered the phrase. She was hoping that he would help her up sometime soon but if he didn't that would be fine too. She just wanted him to not hate her or be angry with her, she wanted to explain things to him. Finally after a few moments of silence he helped her back up and escorted her over to the couch. She felt his hand rest itself on her lower back and she got a little tingle through her body but she liked it for the most part. As they sat down on the couch she found herself very nervous and not sure what to say, she hoped he would talk first.
Clark sat Chloe down across from him on the couch, he turned to face her and she did the same. He looked deep into her eyes and could tell she was nervous and scared, as was he but he wanted to make her feel more at ease so he started the conversation. "Well, umm Chloe umm…. Do you want to tell me what you know and how you found it all out? I know this is awkward but just tell me everything don't lie to me, I know I have no right to say that to you after all I have been lying to you for a couple of years now but I only hope you understand. Now just go on, I will listen and not interrupt." Clark placed his hands on hers to let her know he was there for her, that he trusted her to tell him everything and that she should trust him not to lie to her anymore.
Chloe saw that care and kindness in his eyes again and she started to melt. She was happy he had taken over and started the conversation even though she knew her turn was next to talk. She was nervous but Clark helped to calm her down, when he placed his hands on hers and said he knew he wasn't the best at being honest she knew she would be fine. If Clark was ready to admit that he had been hiding something then she was ready to tell him he didn't have to hide it anymore. "Ok, here we go… umm well I know that you are from a different planet it Clark, Pete's brother from another planet as you two called it. I know you have super strength, speed, and heat vision, if you have any more abilities then I am clueless to them. I know you are weak to green meteor rock and the red meteor rock makes you act out of character, exhibit A tonight. I found this all out the day me and Pete were infected with that parasite in the caves. I know I told you I didn't remember any of it but I just saw the look on your face when you had asked me if I remembered anything and I could just tell you didn't want me to know. So I pretended I didn't and decided that you would tell me when you were ready for me to know. I understand you not telling me Clark, it is a hard thing to keep a secret. I have almost slipped up in front of you so many times, I wanted to tell you that I knew so bad but I was afraid that you would get angry or thought that I had been digging into your life again and I haven't. I just want you to know that you could've told me and I wouldn't have minded. Why didn't you ever tell me Clark, I know you told Pete so why not me?" Chloe was so happy to get that all of her chest, it was a relief to finally let Clark in on her own little secret. She just hoped that he now would open up to her and let her know why he never told her. She was slightly hurt when she knew Pete knew and she didn't but was willing to hear him out.
Clark was shocked to know that she remembered everything from that day, even their little make-out session in the Talon? He knew he remembered quite well, and he wasn't going to say he hated it because he didn't. The only thing Chloe didn't know about was his x-ray vision, he would tell her about it so she knew everything. He could hear the hurt in her voice when she made mention that she knew Pete knew and she didn't. He knew that was coming, but he just wished it wasn't true and hoped she would understand when he explain things to her. "Well, Chloe you know about everything, but I do also have x-ray vision. I came here to Earth in the meteor shower and my parents found me and my ship in a corn field. They had to have a phony adoption made through Lionel Luthor so they could have me. You may wonder why my dad would hate the Luthor's then, well Lionel made my dad convince the Ross' to sell their factory. He said if my dad didn't then my adoption papers may end up in the wrong hands. But enough of how the Luthor's have effected my family, I thank you for not digging any further on that matter also. The reason Pete knows and you don't is because early this year Pete found my space ship in the field, it had gotten thrown from our cellar during the tornado, he was going to sell it to some big wigs and I couldn't let that happen so I was forced to tell him. He freaked and wouldn't even talk to me for a while so I was nervous to tell you. Afraid that you might freak out and hate me too, think less of me I guess and I didn't want that. I wanted to tell you Chloe, but when my parent's found out that I told Pete they got really angry and told me I wasn't to tell anyone else. I didn't want to anger them so I didn't, even thought it killed me that you didn't know Chlo. If I had my choice I would've told you the day I met you, you just seemed like someone I could tell everything to and you would understand but I didn't and I regret that decision. Just please forgive me for not telling you, I am happy you know now though." Clark took a deep breath he had been holding in for a while. He looked back up from his hands that he had been staring at the entire time, he found Chloe's gaze and saw her eyes had glossed over. "Please don't cry Chlo, I can't take it when you cry." He thought silently to himself. He couldn't resist himself any longer, she had been looking so great all night and now that she knew and accepted him she was even more irresistible. He leaned in closer, "So Chloe you say you remember everything about that day with Pete. Do you remember this?" He leaned in all the way and placed his lips on hers, he started off very gentle and soft but increased the pressure a little bit as the kiss went on.
Chloe was slightly in shock to hear everything about Clark being an alien. She hated that word but couldn't really think of a better one right now. She listened and understood why Jonathan Kent hated the Luthor's so much. She listened to Clark explain himself about Pete knowing and her not. She understood completely, she was just glad he was able to open up to her now. It made her happy to hear him speak so highly of her, she knew that she didn't deserve all the credit he gave her but she would take it tonight. She felt tears in her eyes again but she was trying her hardest to fight them off. When he finally looked back up to her she saw that he was still hoping she would accept him, and she did. Then out of nowhere he leaned in and asked if she remembered everything from when she was infected and he kissed her! Clark Kent was kissing her, Chloe Sullivan, all on his own with no drugs or anything. Just because he wanted to, but she did remember those lips and the way he kissed. She gave in without a fight, she liked being back at this spot with him. She felt him get a little more passionate as the kiss went on and she didn't mind it one bit. She started to sink backwards so she was laying on the couch with him on top of her. Finally she needed a break to breathe, she pulled away and looked back up at him all smiles. "I sure do remember that, it was the highlight of my day. Do you remember this?" She pushed him up back into a sitting position and straddled his lap again like she did at the Talon. She leaned in and started to kiss him again, and started to take off his shirt.
-x-Well I know this took a few days but I just was having a bit of writer's block. Now that I have overcome it I hope you all liked it, I decided that putting Chloe and Clark together was a good idea. Not only does it make more sense then Lana and Clark but it makes me happier! So I hope you enjoy it and please review! I will try and finish it up here soon but ta-ta for now.
