Chloe's eyes slowly fluttered open and she felt something tugging at the hem of her shirt. She instantly snapped out of her sleepy haze and turned to see Conner looking up at her with a tear streaked face.

"What's the matter Conner?" Chloe asked concerned.

"I had a bad dream." Conner whimpered.

"Well what was it about?"

"The mean men that were after me were out in the road looking for me." He sniffled out sliding closer to her.

Chloe dug deep into her brain for her motherly instincts. She lifted Conner up and sat him on her lap and he moved over towards Clark so that he was safely tucked in the middle of them. Clark woke up at feeling Conner rest his head on his arm.

"What's going on?" Clark yawned out.

"He just had a bad dream Clark it's ok."

"What was it about little buddy?"

"He said that it was about the bad people who were after him. He said that they were out there looking for him." Chloe answered for Conner.

"Hey buddy don't worry about it, it was just a bad dream. You'll be safe with us."

Despite his parent's comforting words Conner still curled up between Clark and Chloe and eventually feel into an uneasy sleep.

"Poor little guy." Chloe said rubbing Conner's back.

"Sooo…" Clark said as he nervously tapped his fingers on his knees.

"Yeah…" Chloe said looking around the loft. "This is just so weird huh?"

"Yeah it is. I mean I wonder how you, I mean I, I mean we you know."

"Oh my God Clark have your parents still not given you the birds and the bees talk?" Chloe joked.

"I didn't mean it like that." Clark said embarrassed. "I know how he was conceived I just meant that we both agreed to be just friends so how did this happen."

"Well Clark sometimes basic friendships grow into something more."

"And that's what happened to us." Clark said inching closer to Chloe.

"Apparently." Chloe answered back now only inches away from Clark's face.

They were about to kiss when Martha came up the stairs holding a plate full of cookies and glass of milk.

"Sorry I wasn't interrupting anything was I?" Martha asked.

"No Mrs. Kent." Chloe said slightly disappointed.

"What's that?" Clark asked gesturing towards the food.

"I thought Conner might be hungry."

"Spoiling him with your famous cookies already mom?"

"Well as strange as this sounds he is my only grandson." Martha said as she put the cookies and milk down on the table. "I'll leave you guys alone now."

Once Martha was gone Clark turned to Conner and placed his hand on the top of his head. A surge flew through Clark's body and all of the sudden he saw what looked like soldiers fighting him and trying to take away his son. Then he saw himself and Chloe putting Conner inside some type of vessel. Clark kissed Chloe and held her close as the vessel disappeared in a bright flash of lights. The last thing he saw before he snapped back to reality was the soldier's searching through the cornfields for Conner.

"Clark, Clark, wake up." Chloe said frightened.

Clark slowly sat up and realized he was lying on the floor. He sat up and grabbed his head in pain.

"Chloe I don't think it was just a bad dream that Conner had."
