Ch. 8 Chloe's Anger

Chloe

I woke up on Lois' couch, she still wasn't home. I cleaned up the ice cream and drove home, telling myself I'd call Lois later.

When I got home I immediately turned on my computer. I burned a CD with some choice songs and prepared myself for the three hour drive to Smallville.

Lex

I woke up on the couch in mine and Lucas' penthouse. Empty beer bottles littered the floor around me, thankfully the music had stopped playing. I think I had cried all my tears and now I just felt sort of numb. I walked around in a haze, cleaning up and taking the elevator down to the parking lot. I went to my car and sighed. A three hour drive to Smallville was not something I was looking forward to. But Chloe wouldn't be there, so I had to go. I had to get away from this problem, had to get away from her. She was slowly killing me from the inside out.

Chloe

I drove around the back of the mansion and parked there, so if anybody showed up, they wouldn't know I was here. Lex's butler knew me, and let me in. I went straight to the den and set up my little trap. I still had no idea why I was doing this, but if Lex was going to do that to me, he deserve it and much worse.

After everything was set up, I sat down on the couch. I started to doze off, I hadn't slept very well last night. Nightmares had kept me from sleeping too deeply.

I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"Chloe?" a soft voice said. I knew that voice, I slowly turned around. Please God, not him! I jumped up from the couch.

"Lex!" Damn it! "Press play," I said, handing him the remote to his stereo. I headed for the door.

"I will, but only if you're here to listen with me." He said, grabbing my arm. I glared at him, yanking my arm out of his grasp.

"Fine!" We sat down on opposite couches, facing each other. I stared him down, crossing my arms and sitting back. He leaned back against the couch and pressed play.

(Jo Dee Messina - Where Were You?)

It's good to see you come 'round, it's been a while
Sure is nice to see your smile
Yah I'm doing better now, thought about
Callin' you a hundred times

This first song was about the hospital.

Oh I had left a couple messages
And I never heard a word
Not one

Hey he never did answer my e-mail.

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

Yeah Lex? Where were you when I needed you?

A lot of things got pretty bad pretty fast
I never thought you'd turn your back
You left me out there all alone hanging on
I just have to deal with that

I've tried to deal with it, I really have.

Oh I can count on you when everything is easy
But when the going gets tough
I guess not

Yeah you helped me with my Clark problems, so why not help me when I really needed you?

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

Where were you Lex? By now, inside I felt like crying, but I kept my face emotionless, staring at the floor.

I had to find my own way
Now that I've made it through

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

That song was to remind him of the first time he left. This one was more oriented to remind him of the restaurant, but it could also be linked to the time he drugged me and left me to marry Helen.

(Jo Dee Messina - My Give A Damn's Busted)

Well you filled up my head,
With so many lies.
Twisted my heart
Til something snapped inside.
I'd like to give it one more try
but my give a damn's busted.

Now my eyes snapped back to his, my spine went rigid, my whole body radiated anger.

You can crawl back home
say you were wrong,
stand out in the yard
cry all night long.
Well go ahead and water my lawn.
My give a damn's busted.

You can beg for forgiveness, but you're not gonna get it!

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Nope...
Sorry...
Nothin'

Sorry, nothing!

You can say you've got issues.
You can say you're a victim.
It's all your parents fault,
After all you didn't pick em
Well maybe Oprah's got time to listen.
My give a damn's busted.

(Well let me get this straight now)
Your therapist said
It was all just a phase
A product of the prozac
And your co-dependent ways
So uhh ... who's your new neighbor these days
My give a damn's busted.

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Eeh-Eeh

I smirked at him, how do you like this Lex?

(Oh you're tellin' me)
It's a desperate situation,
No tellin' what you'll do.
If I don't forgive you,
You say your life is through.
Well honey... give me somethin' I can use.
(My give a damn's busted.)
(Ahh you knew I was gonna say that, didn't ya.)

My give a damn's busted (ha ha)
My give a damn's busted
Honey trust me
My give a damn's busted yeahhh ...
OOOH
My give a damn's busted yeahhh
My give a damn's busted
My give a damn's busted
(I'm not done honey, trust me)
My give a damn's busted
(Been there, done that)
My give a damn's busted
My give a damn's busted

You can say that again! I glared at him with all I had left, all he had left me with. This next song was definitely more about the restaurant.

(JoJo - Leave(get out))

I've been waitin' all day here for ya boy,

So won't ya come and sit and talk to me,

and tell me how we're gonna be together always,

hope ya know that when it's late at night,

i hold on to my pillow tight,

and think of how you promised me forever

(I never thought that anyone)

mmmm

Could make me feel this way

(Now that your here boy all I want)

Is just a chance to say

Now that you're here...

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies,

you said that you would treat me right

but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

A very large waste of time.

Tell me why your lookin' so confused,

When i'm the one who didn't know the truth,

How could you ever be so cold

To go behind my back and call my friend,

Boy you must have gone and bumped your head,

Because you left her number on your phone,

(So now after all that's said and done)

Maybe i'm the one to blame buuut

(To think that you could be the one)

Well it didn't work out that way

Didn't even come close to working out that way! How could you be stupid enough to kiss a girl at the place you told me to meet you at?

Get out (Leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

(You to be gone)

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies,(All the lies that you)

you said that you would treat me right

but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

Just a waste of time.

I wanted you right here with me,

But I have no choice you've gotta leave,

Because my heart is breakin', with every word im sayin',

I gave up everything I had,

On somethin' that just wouldn't last,

But I refuse to cry,

No tears will fall from these,

Eyeee-eyeee-eyeees

Ohhhh ohhhhh

No tears that you'll ever see.

GEEEEEEEEET OUT!

I leaned forward, resting my chin on my hands. Glaring at him, I hoped to convey all the anger and hurt I felt inside.

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies (How did I bought all those lies) , you said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me (Hey yeah)

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies, you said that you would treat me right (treat me right) but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

Get Out (Leave)

You and me

It's Too Late (too late)

You

bout her (who, why)

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time

You said you would never hurt me, but you did. The last song was the best one, it had helped me so much over the years.

(Kelly Clarkson - Behind These Hazel Eyes)

Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on

It's all your fault Lex.

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

I thought you were the one who would never hurt me, the one who would protect me, I was wrong.

I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
Sewn together, but so broken up inside
'Cause I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on

I pretend to be okay, so how come you're the only one who knows how much I need you.

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

My eyes started to sting, I felt a lump in my throat. No way! You are not going to cry in front of him Chloe!

Swallow me then spit me out
For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...anymore

Got that right! I gritted my teeth and glared straight at him!

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

I smirked one last time at him, then I couldn't take it anymore. I ran for my car, unable to stay in his presence any longer.

Lex

I walked into the den at my mansion in Smallville and stopped short. There, on the couch, was Chloe, sleeping peacefully. What the hell was she doing here? For a minute I just stood there, taking in her beauty, but she could wake up any second.

"Chloe?" I asked, lightly touching her shoulder. She jumped up from the couch.

"Lex! Press play," she said, handing me the remote and heading for the door.

"I will, but only if you're here to listen with me." I grabbed her arm, she wasn't going to just walk out of my life again.

"Fine!" She glared at me and yanked her arm out of my reach. We sat on opposite couches and just stared at each other. She leaned back and crossed her arms, glaring at me. I pressed play.

(Jo Dee Messina - Where Were You?)

It's good to see you come 'round, it's been a while
Sure is nice to see your smile
Yah I'm doing better now, thought about
Callin' you a hundred times

You're doing better? I'm doing terrible!

Oh I had left a couple messages
And I never heard a word
Not one

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

I was protecting you!

A lot of things got pretty bad pretty fast
I never thought you'd turn your back
You left me out there all alone hanging on
I just have to deal with that

Chloe I'm sorry! It was just to help you! I tried to tell her my thoughts with my eyes but she was staring at the floor.

Oh I can count on you when everything is easy
But when the going gets tough
I guess not

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

I had to find my own way
Now that I've made it through

Where were you when I needed somebody
Where were you when the walls started caving in
I was waiting for someone to save me
When I was coming unglued
Where were you

Chloe, please, don't...I stared at the floor, knowing she was right.

(Jo Dee Messina - My Give A Damn's Busted)

Well you filled up my head,
With so many lies.
Twisted my heart
Til something snapped inside.
I'd like to give it one more try
but my give a damn's busted.

Isn't it funny how a song can change your mood? Chloe went from staring at the floor, to staring at me, she radiated anger.

You can crawl back home
say you were wrong,
stand out in the yard
cry all night long.
Well go ahead and water my lawn.
My give a damn's busted.

I really am sorry though Chloe.

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Nope...
Sorry...
Nothin'

I looked at Chloe, she looked so beautiful. At times like this, when she was mad, you could look into her eyes and see the fire that burns deep inside her soul. The fire and passion that I had fallen in love with.

You can say you've got issues.
You can say you're a victim.
It's all your parents fault,
After all you didn't pick em
Well maybe Oprah's got time to listen.
My give a damn's busted.

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Eeh-Eeh

She smirked at me, knowing how she was affecting me.

She had a smug look on her face, knowing that she was winning.

(JoJo - Leave(get out))

I've been waitin' all day here for ya ,

So won't ya come and sit and talk to me,

and tell me how we're gonna be together always,

hope ya know that when it's late at night,

i hold on to my pillow tight,

and think of how you promised me forever

(I never thought that anyone)

mmmm

Could make me feel this way

(Now that your here boy all I want)

Is just a chance to say

Say what? I knew I had a hopeful look on my face, hoping that the torture was over.

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies,

you said that you would treat me right

but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

My hope fell, she still hadn't forgiven me. Mary, this was about Mary.

Tell me why your lookin' so confused,

When i'm the one who didn't know the truth,

How could you ever be so cold

To go behind my back and call my friend,

Boy you must have gone and bumped your head,

Because you left her number on your phone,

(So now after all that's said and done)

Maybe i'm the one to blame buuut

(To think that you could be the one)

Well it didn't work out that way

It could still be that way, I wasn't out just yet.

Get out (Leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

(You to be gone)

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies,(All the lies that you)

you said that you would treat me right

but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

I wasn't a waste of time, and neither were you.

I wanted you right here with me,

But I have no choice you've gotta leave,

Because my heart is breakin', with every word im sayin',

I gave up everything I had,

On somethin' that just wouldn't last,

But I refuse to cry,

No tears will fall from these,

Eyeee-eyeee-eyeees

Ohhhh ohhhhh

GEEEEEEEEET OUT!

She leaned forward, putting her chin on her hands, not knowing how leaning forward just made me want to kiss her.

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies (How did I bought all those lies) , you said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

Get out (leave), right now

It's the end of you and me (Hey yeah)

It's too late (Now), and I can't wait for you to be gone,

Cuz I know, about her (Who), and I wonder (Why),

How I bought all the lies, you said that you would treat me right (treat me right) but you was just a waste of time

(Waste of time)

Get Out (Leave)

You and me

It's Too Late (too late)

You

bout her (who, why)

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time

Chloe that's crazy! And you know it!

(Kelly Clarkson - Behind These Hazel Eyes)

You're still strong Chloe, you don't need me.

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

Chloe I never meant to hurt you! I looked into her eyes, trying to say all that I felt.

I can make you feel great Chloe!

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

She looked like she was about to cry.

Swallow me then spit me out
For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...anymore

She glared at me, I should have known she'd never let me see her cry.

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

She got up and ran for the door. I sat there for a second, stunned, I had gone through enough pain to make anybody numb. So why did I feel still the heartbreak? I finally came to my senses, I got up and ran after her.

"Chloe! Chloe wait!" I yelled, but she was already gone. I sank to the floor, a lonely, silent tear slid down my cheek. She was gone.
