The fall
Her cries and sobs are carried to his ears like a lamentation would surely be carried to the heavens. He watches her shaking form hover over the bloodied one of her lover, and can't help but resent her for her betrayal and new loyalties.
So many years she had been loyal to him and no other, that he just couldn't understand what it had been that had turned their close relationship into a battlefield of isolation, accusation and at last hatred in just a short few weeks.
Chloe had after the break up with Jimmy distanced herself from him, and Clark had found out soon after that found out that she sought and found consolation with a certain paramedic. At first he had not seen harm in Chloe finding support with someone else. But if he'd be honest, he did feel hurt that she hadn't consoled in him, yet understood that his playing the hero to Metropolis slowed the pace of their friendship.
He watched over the few short weeks that followed how Chloe's relationship with Davis got stronger, nourished, yet at the same time how she estranged with others around her. She stopped being watchtower for Oliver, and claimed that being with Davis took more time from her. She stopped her random nights out with Lois, and stuck to random till scarce telephone calls to her to ensure her health to the once close cousin and friend.
But what hurt him most was the way she started to distance herself from even him. She stopped being there for him as often as she had been, instead whenever he went to look for her she was with Davis. It was in the way that she would say his name, the way she would look at him, that brought forth Clarks ugly head of jealousy.
And then when he had learned at last that Davis was none other than Doomsday himself, Clark had been more than sure that 'the other Kryptonian' didn't feel the same way that Chloe felt for him. And in a way, Clark mused as he continued to watch over the fallen couple, Davis hadn't felt the same that Chloe had. He knew the minute he used Chloe as unwilling bait and Davis had really come to the perfectly laid out trap, and his sure end, that Davis' love for her exceeded hers probably by the limitation of her fragile human self.
