A/N: Hi guys! I know it's been FOREVER since the last time we posted and we're REALLY sorry about that! But no need to worry 'cause we're going to write chaps frequently! For the next few chaps Rosel is going to write it by herself 'cause I'm very busy, but I know EXCACTLY what's going to happen so don't be worrying that I'm going to do something completly different. So anyways, we really are sorry and please R&R!!!

Disclaimer: We DO NOT and we repeat DO NOT own Smallville! If we did then it wouldn't be stupid and confusing! And for selfish reasons I would have Davis all to myself and Rosel would have Sam Witwer! JK. We have problems don't we?

Davis woke up ready for another day. He couldn't wait to see Chloe. When he was with Chloe he never had any head aches or pain. And he most defiantly hasn't had any black outs when he was around her. Ever since he was a kid he had black outs. He would always get these head aches and pain and feel it coming on. He felt like his insides were being ripped apart. The pain was always excruciating. When his father took Clark and him hunting for the first time his father realized that hunting animals made him feel better. Davis didn't know why he and his brother were so different. He didn't know why every time he was afraid that he got such bad head aches and excruciating pain and that his eyes turned blood red. And he didn't know why killing made him feel better. It felt so wrong. He felt so wrong. He always felt this great big darkness trying to come out. When they were going hunting Davis didn't want to go. He didn't want to kill any animals. He really liked animals. He always wanted to have a pet. But his father wouldn't let him. Then when they went hunting and a dear went running around and Davis got scared and he felt that pain again and his eyes turned red then he shot the dear and the pain went away and his eyes went back. So ever since then when ever he felt the pain his dad would take him hunting.

In the last year ever since he met Chloe the pain came less and less frequent he only had to go hunting a couple of times. And those times were when he wasn't around Chloe. He felt peace, warmth, and calm when he was around her. He never felt better then when he was around her. He was completely at home and at peace with her especially when it was just the two of them. They hung out a lot. And he always made excuses to see her. It became routine for all three of them to hang out together daily. But Davis craved to see her more often just the two of them. He had always been a survivor always doing what ever it took to make sure he didn't feel pain always staying away from painful options which was a reason why he wanted to see Chloe so much she helped the pain go away. But even if she didn't he still would want to see her. That was proved when it looked like she would always be hanging around poisonous Lana. He tried to just convince her not to hang around Lana with out telling her that Lana was poisonous to him. She made him and his brother feel sick. When that didn't work he tried thinking about going back with out seeing her. That it was logical to stay away from Chloe if she hung out with Lana. But he was miserable all day so to cease his emotional misery he was willing to endure physical misery for her. Good thing Chloe left with him when she did. He didn't know how much of that pain he could take. He finally understood Clark's illogical feelings for Lana and his willingness to endure pain just to say hi to her. He would always pull Clark away from Lana every time he saw her and go in the opposite direction. But then he understood that Clark was smitten with Lana it defied logic. Just like he was smitten with Chloe. He was willing to with stand pain to be with her. Something he always tried to avoid. It did work out where he didn't have to. Chloe could tell her hanging around Lana really made Davis uncomfortable so she stopped. She spent most of her time with Clark and Davis.

She had roped them both in helping her investigate the strange things in Smallville. Which was something Clark objected at first but it was hard for both of them to say no to Chloe. And Davis really didn't want to say no to her at all. And Clark knew that and Clark was a bit afraid Davis would accidentally spill their secret because he had the tendency to tell the truth to her and accidentally say something that could lead Chloe to find out about the secret. So most of the time Clark hung around, which was really annoying. That was why he was looking forward to the home coming dance. He was going to ask Chloe and finally they could do something that would be just the two of them. They could be alone when they danced.

Davis never had the guts to move from friends to more than with Chloe. He just loved and thrived from spending time with her. He knew he would start feeling sick if she wasn't around. So he couldn't risk if she said no and things would be awkward and she didn't want to spend time with him anymore. He couldn't bare that. So he would ask her under the guise as just being friends so he didn't have to risk the tragedy of her never wanting to see him again.

That day he was going to do it, he was going to ask her to Home Coming. It was perfect they could spend the whole night dancing just being with each other and no Clark to tag along. He doubted Clark would even want to go but if he did he couldn't tag along while Davis and Chloe danced. Davis found it funny that he was so excited about a lame mediocre school ritual. He never would've considered going to a school dance if it weren't for Chloe.

As they got on the bus that day Chloe had saved a spot for Davis as usual, she looked bright and perky with that wide eyed look she always got when she was looking forward to new strange and unusual things she would uncover that day. He loved her big toothy grin and how her blonde styled hair just fell just above her cheek.

"So what strange and unusual thing did you discover this mourning?" Davis asked as he couldn't help but to smile at her smile.

"Why Davis Kent what makes you think that? It's the mourning the day has barely started."

"And you have that yea; I found another strange thing look. It's undeniable." Davis said full of surety in a cute light hearted manner.

"OK, fine. I think I found a Meteor Freak!"

"What makes you think that?"

"Well, there's a picture of this guy from the day he went missing on the day of the meteor shower and it's identical to him now." Chloe said excitedly.

"So how do you know about this guy now?"

"He's a suspect for a string of murders." Chloe said a little too brightly.

"Well, so it looks like you'll be busy tomorrow night."

"What? Davis I got this, it's going to be ready for tomorrows mourning addition!"

"Of course you will. So you won't be too busy for the dance."

"No, but no ones asked me as in style going stag might be…"

"So maybe we could…"

"Davis Kent you are not asking me to the dance the day before are you? Give a girl a little notice won't you."

"So you won't go?" Davis' heart sank to the pit of his stomach his life suddenly felt filled with so much gloom.

"I mean I thought we could just go as friends." Davis said rushed and hoped that settled what ever rejection Chloe was about to lay on him.

"Of course I'll go with you. Just next time it would be nice if you gave me a little notice."

Davis smiled, "Agreed."

Then Chloe looked around as the bus arrived at school.

"So Clark's late again, are you sure you two are related. You're always so punctual."

"Yeah, well, he'll make it in time for school. He always does." Davis said.

"I still don't get how he does that. Note to self to investigate the possibility of black holes in Smallville." Chloe said as she wrote on her small note pad.

Then suddenly they both felt a gust of wind. Then Clark was behind Chloe, "What about black holes?"

***

The rest of the day Chloe and Davis were pretty preoccupied researching this Jeremy Creek guy. Clark usually helped them out but Davis hinted to him that he'd rather he wouldn't stay. Clark almost objected but decided to give Davis that time alone with Chloe so he walked home.

Then suddenly Davis got a phone call on his cell, it was his mom.

He answered it and Chloe looked up at him finally taking her eyes away from the story she was working on and saw the worried look on Davis' face and then she asked equally worried,

"What's wrong?"

"It's Clark there was an accident."

***

Chloe and Davis arrived at the barn both rushed up the creaky old stairs and saw Clark sitting on his chair staring into space. Chloe rushed to his side and said blurting it out in rushed anxious voice, "Clark, are you ok? Did you get hurt? What happened? Martha said you were in some kind of accident. What's wrong with you? Why aren't you in the hospital?"

Then Davis pulled Chloe off of Clark and said, "Chloe give the boy some space."

Clark seemed to be in a daze not really noticing Chloe and Davis at first. Then he looked up at them and said, "I just…I wasn't in an accident. It was Lex his car crashed off of the bridge and I jumped in and saved him."

"Oh, that's great Clark. You're a hero." Chloe said in awe but confused at the same time.

"So what's with the moping in the loft?" Chloe asked.

Then Davis said, "Chloe my Mom was rushed she must have heard about it and thought Clark was hurt too. But it must have been a misunderstanding he's fine now."

Chloe looked at both brothers perplexed and worried and shot Davis an annoyed look, "He doesn't look fine to me."

Then Clark said, "Please Chloe I'm not in the mood to be one of your stories."

Chloe backed away insulted and then said, "Clark I was just trying to help."

Then Davis said in a reassuring voice, "Chloe we know you were, but please let me talk to him alone ok."

Then he held on to her for arm and squeezed it softly looking into her emerald green eyes and said, "I'll call you later OK."

Chloe melted a bit and said, "OK, I'll talk to you later."

Chloe hugged Davis and then she went to hug Clark but she thought better of it so she left.

Then Davis took a chair and sat bye Clark they sat there for a few moments in silence. Then Davis said, "So Clark, what really happened?"

Clark looked up at him and said, "Did you ever wonder why we were the way we were."

"Yeah, sure. Mom and Dad always told us we were born this way and that we're different. You know doing all of this stuff with Chloe made me wonder if the meteor did this to us." Davis said.

Clark stared out into space some more. "What if you found out you were invincible?" Clark asked.

"I'm not you've hurt me before and either are you, I've seen you bleed." Davis said.

"What if that's something we grow out of?" Clark asked.

Davis did not have an answer.

Then Clark continued, "What if we grow so much that no one will hurt us at all and we'll be invincible. We're different Davis but what if I'm so different from you that I'm completely alone on this."

"Clark, you're never alone ok. We're brothers. I'll always be here for you. So what happened?"

"Lex's truck hit me at 90 miles per hour and I fell off of the bridge with him. After that I ripped his door open and pulled him out. But there wasn't a scratch on me."

"I'm sorry Clark. But Chloe's right you are a hero. You saved Lex's life and if you weren't as resilient as you are you would be dead."

"Yeah, I just wish I wasn't so different."

"I know Clark. But maybe being different isn't so bad."

Clark shrugged not so sure. Then he got up. "I'm going for a walk I just need some time alone."

"I thought being alone was the problem." Davis said.

Clark shrugged his shoulders and said, "I just need some time to think."

Clark then left Davis there alone.

***

Davis worried for his brother, feeling sad that he felt so alone. He knew exactly how his brother felt he has felt lonely and isolated at times. His only friend was his brother and his parents for as long as he could remeber. Home was a sanctuary from the rest of the world. He too, though had this deep dark fear that his brother wasn't like him at all. They found solace in each other because they were family and they were different in their own way. But Davis feared that the way they were different from each other may pull him and his brother making them both feel so isolated from the rest of the world and both of them truely being alone.

Davis also felt for Clark because he had felt so alone and wanted so much to not be different. Truthfully Davis didn't really mind being different from everyone else he only minded being different from Clark. And some how he liked that whole outsider thing. He took solace in it. And the whole outsider thing has bonded him with Chloe. So he really didn't mind that. Davis did feel a bit guilty that his wanting to spend some alone time with Chloe had caused Clark to go off by himself and cause this whole thing of Clark seeing how different he really was. But then again if he hadn't Lex Luthor probally would be dead.

Davis was feeling a bit gloomy and he hated sulking and Chloe was the only cure for that. It was amazing what a difference she had made he used to sulk all of the time but now he had Chloe. So he called Chloe. Just hearing her voice always helped.

After talking to Chloe Davis did feel much better. He didn't realize that time had passed so much it was already really dark outside he barely noticed before. When talking to Chloe it is like the whole world around him goes away. He was about to go look for Clark when Clark came in looking a lot more relaxed and happier then he was before. Forget happy he was down right giddy.

"What happened Clark you went to a parellel happier universe or something."

Clark couldn't help but smile and he said, "Well, I guess things are starting to look up."

"Really? What could have possibly change?"

"Lana."

Davis ished in exasaperation, "Clark, really you see Lana from far away and suddenly all of your problems just disapear?"

"Please Davis don't knock me for liking Lana and feeling that way. If your just near Chloe all of your pain goes away. and beside it wasn't like that we talked. We actually had a deep meaningful conversation with out all of the pain. She wasn't wearing her necklace for the first time. She made me realize that maybe I'm not alone after all. She had a lot of tragedy in her life and she seemed to know what it's like to be different then what everyone else sees."

"Wow that must have been some talk."

"It was. I thought I was going to mope in the loft tommorow night but now I don't think I will. I'm going to the dance."

Davis sat up taken a back a bit, "Really? Wait a second are you telling me that miss pom poms dumped the quarter back ken doll for you?"

"Hey, it could happen. But no she's still with Whitney but she said she would save me a dance."

Davis looked at him wearily and said, "Don't worry bro, I won't be the third wheel. I'll let you have your alone time with Chloe. Besides it should be fun. I'll get a chance to dance with Lana and it will be entertaining to see you try to dance with Chloe. It'll be fun."

"Yeah. Fun." Davis said hopping Clark didn't ruin his date with Chloe when Whitney didn't let clark cut in with Lana and have Chloe end up comforting him. But he was happy that his brother seemed happy now.

THen Clark went on his side of the loft and started fiddling with his telescope.

Then Davis said, "You know that's my signal to leave. You know Clark stalking is illegal you know."

"I'm looking at the stars man."

"Sure. Sure. See you bro." Davis then left his brother alone with his telescope.

***

Davis and Clark were on their way to the Home Coming when a group of football player attacked them. They both felt really weak. And Davis saw the quarter back Whitney Fordman holding unto a necklace with a meteor rock. They both fell to the ground. The pain hurt so much then Whitney put the necklace on Clark and dragged Clark into the near by corn field. His swollen veins began to come down but then suddenly he felt even a worse pain. His head pierced and his insides felt they were being torn into pieces. They left him there. He wanted to go to Clark but the pain was so fierce it immobilized him it strained his entire body. He moaned in intense pain he felt so helpless usually Clark was here to help him and usually they went to his father but this was different no one was here and it was bigger deeper more agonizing pain than he felt in his life and then suddenly he saw something spiky and boney growing out of his skin. He was horrified. He must have been delusional at this point. Everything started to get fuzzy he felt like he was fading away. And he felt nothing but pain and rage. Rage at Whitney and his friends for daring to hurt his brother. Rage at himself for not being strong enough to fend them off and save his brother. The physical pain was excruciating, he could not think straight. He felt like he was falling into a deep abyss he was losing his way everything became dark and silent. Then he heard her voice. All of the fuzziness and blurriness went away and he could see the night sky. He knelt down noticing those spiky things coming out of him he said, "Chloe go away."

Chloe knelt besides him and touched him on the shoulder compassionately and then the spike slowly absorbed back into his skin. Davis did not know what was happening. But what ever it was gone now and it was because of her.

Davis looked up at Chloe grateful. But then he remembered Clark was still in trouble with a meteor rock around his neck.

Then Chloe said, "Davis are you ok?"

"I am now you're here. But Clark's in trouble."

Chloe took Davis' hand and said, "Well let's get him."

They walked hand in hand searching through the field. They found him tied against the post and this bold guy he knew must have been Lex Luthor was untying him. Chloe and Davis ran to him. Then Davis fell on the ground feeling his arms swelling in pain. Chloe went down to Davis and picked him up.

Then Lex got Clark down and Lex said, "What's wrong with him?"

Chloe shook her head in panic mode, "I don't know. We got to get out of here those brutes probably aren't far."

Then Lex said, "My cars not too far." Lex got Clark and he leaned on Lex's shoulder and Davis leaned on Chloe's still feeling very weak but he managed to walk out of there.

Then the necklace fell off of Clark and got up and said.

"No I'm fine."

Then Lex said, "Clark you're not fine. You were just tied to a pool. Do you know who did this?"

Clark shook his head and said, "No."

Then Davis said, "Clark. They attacked us both we could've…"

Davis started to shake and feel the pain just remembering them hurting his brother but Chloe took his hand with in hers comforting him. Then the pain ceased to be.

Then Clark said, "Thanks Lex, Davis, are you ok?"

Davis nodded his head and said, "I am now."

Then Clark said, "There's some place I have to be."

They all looked at Clark scared for him but he left them behind.

After that Lex went home not before he found the necklace. Davis didn't mind as long as Lex kept it away from him.

Then Davis said, "So shall we get to the dance I'm sure we haven't missed that much."

"Davis, you can't be serious. You and Clark were just attacked. We have to get to the bottom of this."

"I know who did it." Davis said feeling the rage but the usual pain was not there.

"You do well, we have to go to the police and get them arrested."

THey spent the night at the police station reporting whitney and his friends but the police didn't beleive them. Davis should have known they were all huge football fans. THey wouldn't take Whitney in with out proof. And Davis had none. He didn't have a scratch on him. And he doubt Clark did either. Davis felt so helpless and useless. After that he went home disgruntled and he went come to Clark who looked awful and Clark told him that he was attacked by the meteor freak Jermey. Jeremy was going to kill Whitney and his friends for doing to Clark what was done to him years ago. Clark couldn't let that happen.

Davis didn't understand that. Well, he did he knew Jeremy was wrong to kill, but there was a part of him that didn't mind Whitney and his friends suffer for what they did to Clark.

That night Davis didn't sleep well. His date with Chloe was ruined. And Whitney Fordmond would never be punished because of his status as a football hero. He tossed and turned the whole night until he finally just blacked out.

When Davis up, he felt achey pain but some how releaved in real eary way. He felt like he had just stretched some unused muscles that he didn't know aobut but that couldn't be right. Davis woke up in start trying to remember what he dreamed but he couldn't put his finger on it. Although his body felt like it was releaved he still felt awful. He had this big sick deep dark feeling that something was wrong. Something tore at the edge of his soul. He looked at his bare chest and remebered he slept with his shirt but his shirt was gone. He looked around the room but couldn't find it anywhere.

He shrugged the dark feeling away, he just hoped this next day would be better. He didn't want to think about the injustice of Whitney never getting what he deserved. He didn't want to think of his crazy halusiation of weird boney spikes gorwing out of him. He just wanted to sstart a brand new fresh day with Chloe. She was the only thing that he looked forward to. She saved him after all.

Later that day Davis and Chloe were working on the Jeremy Creek story when Lana clad in black came in with blood shot eyes. This sight was very strange for several reasons. One Lana never spoke to Chloe or Davis since Chloe first moved in. Two Lana never ever wore black it was either school colors or some different form pink or baby blue is what she usally wore. And three Lana never cried like that. Lana looked around like a lost puppy roaming around an unfamilar place.

THen Chloe said full of tender and care, "Lana what's wrong?"

"I came here...I wondering...Chloe I know we don't talk but I need your help."

"What is it?"

"I hear your the best investigator in town and need you to investigate a murder."

"A murder? Whose?" Chloe asked intrigued and sad for Lana at the same time.

"Whitney's. He was brudally murdered last night."
