Chlark: Soulmates Part II

Rating: K

Pairing: Chloe/Clark

Summary: Ok I had this story in my head for a while so I thought I write it down. Originally it was going to be a one-shot in the Superman Returns universe but now it a two shot because as I thought about it the story has taken a life of its own. Also based on two songs that shows Chloe's or Clark's point of view. Chloe's feelings are expressed in the song, Until I Find You Again by Richard Marx, and Clark's feelings are expressed in the song, All We'd Ever Need by Lady Antebellum.

(Clark's POV)

Boy it's been all this time
And I can't get you off my mind
And nobody knows it but me

It had been five years since Clark Kent left the planet to see if anything remained of his home planet. Also he was pretty sure that Lois was pissed at him for leaving her behind without saying so much as a goodbye. Also towards the end before he left he could not get his mind off of how his friendship with her cousin fell apart. He missed that friend and wondered how she was doing. All of sudden his mom called him in for dinner.

I stare at your photograph
Still sleep in the shirt you left
And nobody knows it but me

At dinner his mother Martha told him what has happened since he left. First thing she told him was how pissed Lois was at him at first but now Lois has moved on. Second thing she told him was about Chloe and how she died of cancer after her father died in Africa. After Clark heard the news he excused himself and headed to his loft. So he made it up steps and pulled out an old picture album of him and Chloe in high school remembering the good times and also how he just let her walk away without telling her how much he loves her.

Everyday I wipe my tears away
So many nights I've prayed for you to say

The next morning he leaves the farm heading back to Metropolis to face what he left behind. Also he just let the tears fall for Chloe but he has no time to dwell so it is off to the Daily Planet. So Clark steps through the elevator doors and knocks straight into Jimmy Olsen. He helps Jimmy pick up his things and then Jimmy invites him to a bar to go talk. While at the bar he sees that people are in trouble and when Jimmy is not looking he goes to change into Superman for the save.

Chorus
I should've been chasing you
I should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me
I should've said all the things that I kept inside of me
And maybe I could've made you believe
That what we had was all we'd ever need

Within minutes Superman makes it to save the people. Also he saves the people opening the door to see Lois speechless he asks if she is ok and then leaves. Half an hour later they are back at the Daily Planet and Lois introduces Clark to her fiancé Richard White and then see her son Jason. Also Clark knows Jason is his but does not say anything leaving the happy family to talk. Finally he turns to leave when Lois pulls him over asking if he heard about Chloe and he tells her he did confessing that he always loved her cousin and sorry that he could not give his whole heart to Lois. Then leaves not knowing that Lois had her phone behind her back with Lori Lemaris (a.k.a. Chloe Sullivan) hearing every word.

My friends think I'm moving on
But the truth is I'm not that strong
And nobody knows it but me

The next day he woke up doing morning patrol somehow moving on with his life. As he was going back to change into Clark Kent he noticed a redheaded woman in Oliver's old Clock Tower apartment so he just sat on the roof across the building watching this woman with her son. Later that day he is in a meeting with the Justice League revealing who that woman as Lori Lemaris who is the new Watchtower a protégé of Chloe Sullivan before Chloe died. Also he asked about the son and Diana Prince who is Wonder Woman revealed that Lori son was named Jonathan Gabriel Lemaris. Superman thanks Wonder Woman and then leaves to ponder in his thoughts.

And I've kept all the words you said
In a box underneath my bed
And nobody knows it but me

He flies back to his apartment changing into Clark Kent to go looking for a box. He found the box and dug it out revealing all the memories he had of Chloe Sullivan her articles from the torch, then the Daily Planet, the pictures of her and him happier times, and then the pictures of her wedding to Jimmy Olsen's older brother Henry James Olsen who was lost his life before his time.

But if you're happy I'll get through somehow
But the truth is that I've been screaming out

He remembers that day so vividly Chloe seemed so happy and looked so beautiful. Also she was a shining light that never glowed so brighter but she had no memories of his powers. That was a mistake he regretted having her memories erased because he lost the woman he truly loved that day. Also he kind of thought it was odd that this Lori Lemaris named her son Jonathan Gabriel after the two most important men in her life. So he concluded this Lori had to be Chloe but how could he prove that he has always loved her.

Repeat Chorus

So he got up and changed back into Superman heading back to the building across the Clock Tower watching her once more to see if she is Chloe. A few minutes later he made it to the building to observe this Lori he watched as she played with her son. Also he noticed the son has powers similar to his and also he noticed that Chloe's power had come back. All of a sudden he was distracted by a figure landing next to him it was none other than Wonder Woman. Also Wonder Woman asked if he was ok and he related the story of his best friend who could possibly be Watchtower. Finally Diana gave him the best advice he ever received go talk to her and tell him how he feels about her. He thanked Diana and knew what he had to do.

I should've been chasing you
You should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me
Oh you should've said all the things
That I kept inside of me
And maybe you could've made me believe
That what we had girl
Oh that what we had, what we had
It was all we'd ever need
It was all we'd ever need

Ten minutes later Clark Kent had everything prepared for showing Chloe how much she meant to him. Also he thought of a song he heard long ago about how he should have chased her but never did. He was not going to make that mistake again. So he made it to the door and knocked on awaited for her to answer. Five minutes later the door was answered but not answered by her but by her son who he just looked at realizing that the son had his features but the eyes were so much like Chloe's. Finally Chloe made it to the door realizing that it was Clark so she let him in. So she told the son to go play in the other room.

She watched as Jonathan left the room facing Clark not knowing what to say. So Clark just looked at her for a little while in the eyes he hadn't seen in a long time. Also he broke the ice by saying the first words with a little humor.

Clark: So I still have the effect of making the master of words speechless.

Chloe: Clark that is one way to break the ice. Anyway I was wondering when you were going to figure out Lori was none other than little old me.

Clark: Yeah that was a surprise but what gave it away was the name of your son Jonathan Gabriel.

Chloe: Well I figured he should have the names of his grandfather's as an honor to their memories.

Clark: Grandfather's that would mean I am his biological father is it.

Chloe: Yes because when I found him he was tested with having my DNA and your DNA. Anyway Clark what are you really doing here because I know Lois has moved on and I am not falling back into old habits?

Clark: I know but I just wanted to let you know that you have always mean more to me than you know. Also I took you for granted and broke your heart so many times but I am here asking for you forgiveness letting me have one last chance.

Chloe: Clark why should I give you that one last chance?

[Clark did not answer with words but leaned down giving her the most passionate kiss that expressed his feeling. Now Chloe was shocked at first but then she just gave in and then he pulled away.]

Clark: Chlo now does that answer your question?

Chloe: Wow…why did it take you three days to finally make it off that roof to do this?

Clark: You knew I was back but how?

Chloe: My dear old cousin calling me when you confessed that you loved me. By the way my feelings have never changed.

Clark: Well I am grateful to Lois for that. Anyway I know Jason is my son but as far as he is concerned he already has a father in Richard White that is ok with me.

Chloe: Glad to hear that besides I don't think Lois would have it any other way because she was really pissed when you left.

Clark: I know and read the article that gave her the Pulitzer, 'The World Does Not Need a Superman' and it was well deserved.

Chloe: Ok and speaking of son do you want to meet Jonathan?

Clark: I be happy to because I noticed his powers.

Chloe: I am just glad he doesn't fly yet but that will all be in time according to Jor-El.

Clark: I know anyway I noticed your power came back when did that happen?

Chloe: Shortly after you left and I found Jonathan but I don't get sick or dying like in the past.

Clark: Glad to hear that. Anyway let me go meet our son.

[Chloe just grab his hand leading him into the next room to meet his son. Also she just observed the two glad that her and Clark finally had this chance together. Soulmates just as Jor-El predicted when she earned his trust back. Finally she went to join the two most important boy in her life starting a new chapter.]

Here is a fix up of the redoing which I have another part after I fix the chapters.
