Moonlight Dwelling

"Chloe what are you doing up here?"

Chloe was standing on the room of The Talon overlooking Smallville.

"Just enjoying the view and thinking about flying."

Clark walked closer to Chloe even though he was still uneasy about heights.

"Chloe the only flying you can do would be in an airplane."

Chloe looked over at Clark and smiled.

"Well I won't know until I try."

Chloe stepped off the building. Time seemed to stand still as Chloe started to fall. Clark sped over to Chloe. Reaching out to grab her his hand only managed to rip a piece of her coat. Chloe was confident that she'd be fine. Either Clark would get over his fear of heights and start flying or the backup plan would prevent Chloe from getting turned into a pancake. She had asked Oliver to help her put a trampoline in place.

Without a thought Clark jumped off the building. He saw Chloe falling below him. He flew down to Chloe and scooped her up into his arms. Chloe smiled at Clark.

"I knew you could do it."

Clark looked down where he saw a trampoline and Oliver waving up at him.

"Sure you did."

"Doesn't hurt to have a backup plan. Now why don't you give me a ride. I'm in the mood for a croissant."

"Paris here we come."
