Two of Us

AU - Chloe wasn't able to stop Clark from putting on the gold K ring in "Finale, part 1," and he has to deal with an ordinary life and the realization that he's not always enough for the people around him now.

Clark and Chloe's friendship blossoms into a fast and intense romance, and the two of them couldn't be happier, even in the midst of their changing personal relationships and involvement with the fledgling Justice League, and their dissolving friendships with Lana Lang and Lex Luthor. However, an unintended pregnancy throws their lives into upheaval. Chloe struggles with the consequences of bringing a child into such a dangerous world, and Clark wonders if he can ever keep his family safe, as Lex descends deeper into dark and twisted projects driven by his obsession with the mystery of Clark Kent.

Chloe struggles with her crumbling relationship with Jimmy during a time of change and upheaval. Clark struggles with juggling both his hero and everyday duties. In the midst of this tumultuous period in their lives, they seek solace in the strength of their friendship and take a much-needed vacation together, a cruise. But on the high seas, away from their problems, they decide to cross the friendship boundary and change their relationship forever.

Six years ago, Chloe left her life in Metropolis behind to be a foreign correspondent in Singapore, making sure to keep her life as far from Clark and Lois's as possible. She settles into a quiet routine taking care of her son with George Dean, a secret service officer for the U.S. Embassy. When her son survives an explosion at the embassy that should have ripped him apart, her secrets come unraveled as does the reason Lois has never gotten fully down the aisle with Clark. Relationships degrade, alliances change, and suddenly Chloe has to deal with Clark back in her life and the son she'd tried and failed to keep hidden after a night of indiscretion. Everything would be much easier if they could be friends over it, but everything, as it always is, runs so much deeper---more intimate---with them...

Chloe was drunk.  What' Clark's excuse?

After the events of "Arctic", during the Summer of 2008, Chloe and Clark wind up spending a lot of time together as they figure out where their lives are going.

After Chloe Sullivan's forced imprisonment in his home two years ago, Clark Kent came to realize that love and friendship are two sides of the same coin. Two years have passed and he and Chloe are committed to each other and he is content in his relationship and his livelihood, working his family farm the way generations of Kents have with heart and pride, while maybe only slightly worried about the constant little voice in the back of his mind whispering about destiny and such. But just as he begins to face the fact that he can't put off the future forever, a chance unfortunate encounter with a jealous girl strips him of his powers for three months. With Murphy's Law in full effect, he then breaks his lower leg.  Suddenly placed in the role of convalescent, and shaken out of his comfort zone, Clark has to learn to adjust to the transition of not just his injury, but his future with Chloe, his farm, and most of all, his bigger destiny and the obligation he feels to both his birth and adopted father, all against the backdrop of the season of change, a springtime he will never forget.

 Months after walking away from her in Doomsday, Clark returns to Chloe…but finds her a changed woman from the one he left behind.

The episode "Cure" takes on new meaning and depth when Kara wants to bring Lois in as her secret keeper.  Kara's slowly educates Clark on his bond with Chloe, and Chloe meanwhile tests her bond with Clark as she considers a cure for her meteor infection.

In the end, it's really all about magical bracelets and who's right for each other. 

 

 

Chloe surrenders to her power.
