One Night
Once upon a time they had tried to have a relationship, had given it everything they could, had loved each other entirely and completely. But they had found that with their lives, they couldn’t give each other everything. They loved each other, but not enough to walk away from what they considered important.
So they had this. One a night a year when they could be together, when they could forget all their problems and responsibilities and lose themselves in each other. It was a night full of passion and laughter and secret smiles that no one else ever got to see. She brought out everything in him that he thought he had lost over the years. Made him feel like he was a kid again, made him feel like he was experiencing everything for the first time, every time. He loved it when she ran her hands through his hair, when she called him cowboy with a mocking smile, and when she looked at him as though he was everything. And he never wanted those days to end. For a few moments every year, he gave up everything he believed in just so he could be with her. But he always took it back, she made sure he always did.
“You help make the world a better place,” she told him, “I’m not worth giving that up for.”
Elliot thought that she was, but he knew better than to argue with her. She always won.
Middle of Nowhere
She had driven for a long time, much longer than she had wanted too, but she had to be sure that she was far enough away, that there was no way Bobby could find and stop her. She had to do this, she knew he would hate her for it, knew that he would never forgive her or himself if he found out, but she couldn’t live without him. He had been the one that had made everything better, the one that had fixed her, had made her able to love again. But without him, all that he made her would disappear, she would disappear along with him. And she would rather him resent her, rather him hate her for what she did, then live in world where he wasn’t around to feel anything.
And that was why she was there in the middle of nowhere, praying to whoever was listening that the demon would heed her call. Because she would give anything to see him smile again, give anything to feel his touch again, to hear his voice again. He had fixed her, had given her back her life, and now she was going to do the same for him.
An Unexpected Partner:
When he told her he was an angel of the Lord, she had laughed in his face. She had told him that he wasn’t the first confused man she had met, and that he wouldn’t be the last. Then he had shown her his wings and she had laughed harder. She had given up on believing in angels, on believing that there was anyone out there looking after her other than herself. And suddenly there was proof of it right in front of her. He hadn’t understood her laughter, hadn’t been able to understand the concept of irony or bitterness. She hadn’t explained it to him.
Slowly they built a relationship, based on necessity and not trust. She would not let herself believe in someone like him, wouldn’t allow herself to believe in the possibility of what he might mean. He could not be her friend, because he could not understand her grief, could not understand her reservations, could not understand her. He couldn’t be her savior because she did not want to be saved. So he became her partner, gave her what she needed and never took more than she could offer. Expected of her only what he could return.
She had a role to play, an important part of an oncoming war, but he promised to always be beside her, to always do what he could. And despite her reservations, she found herself believing him.
Dust:
Chloe watched the car pull away, dust circling all around her. She felt the first tears fall and knew that she was making a mistake. She shouldn’t have let him go. She should have fought harder to keep him, tried harder to find a way to make it work. But it was a mistake she didn’t know how to fix. She couldn’t give up her life and he couldn’t give up his. The world needed them to help save it in their own ways. So she stayed there, long after the last of the dust had settled, hoping desperately that he would come back but knowing that he wouldn’t.

Also, lovely angst! My favorite! :)

Date: 2013-12-19 08:39 pm (UTC)Four awesome Chloe pairings/partnerships and sadly the angst is all too realistic for all of them. :.( Why do we have to ship the angsty ones. :/
no subject
Date: 2013-12-28 11:12 pm (UTC)But I'm always glad there are other evil people like me who enjoy it. And yes, sadly angst would be present in all of these ships. But also some happiness. Just not on my journal. XD
no subject
Date: 2013-12-28 11:28 pm (UTC)Yes, we're definitely evil. Muahahah. But the lovable kind, obviously. ;) And we're just gonna have to tell people we're a tandem deal, you write the angst (mostly), and I write the fluffy dirty flirtiness (mostly, when I'm not being the ultimate evil writer writing character death.). We just complement each other like that.
no subject
Date: 2014-01-01 01:24 am (UTC)I may have an angst problem.
Those are always good headcanons to have. Especially when they involve Dean. ;D I'm very intrigued by this story. I mean it has angst, sexy times and Chlean. Hits all my things. LOL, I don't mind be casually spoiled.
Obviously the lovable kind. But then, I find evilness to be a good thing in friendships. So...
LOL, sounds good to me. I'll provide the angst and you'll provide the fluff. I'll knock em down and you'll pick em up. Its a good system.
no subject
Date: 2014-01-01 01:51 am (UTC)Obviously there was more that I loved and more that I hated but my brain is not fully functioning at this time of night.
Good angst is addictive.
Yup, they are. Chlean. <3 Haha, be glad I overcame my block concerning the flow of the story, even though I now actually have an alternative version, that I think I'll write too eventually because I kinda fell in love with it. Which might have something to do with it being a bit more lighthearted, and Bobby being a big part of it. I love Bobby, Bobby is awesome. And Chloe/Bobby is awesome. And Chloe/Sam/Dean/Bobby is awesome. It'll be awesome. I fell in love with a story that I haven't even written yet again (except for a few conversations that popped into my head so I won't forget them). Sometimes/Most of the time it's like telling myself bedtime stories, because the best ideas usually come to me when I'm lying in bed trying to fall asleep and then not being able to because my mind is so busy thinking of scenarios for my bbs (mostly my bbs, but other Chloe crossovers are featured too)
As long as everybody knows where to draw the line, yes, evilness in friendships is good and keeps 'em fresh and unique. ;)
Yep, like that song, pick 'em up then knock 'em down. Or however it goes. That's the evil order and the nice order on our rare good days is, knock 'em down then pick 'em up.

Date: 2014-01-05 08:28 pm (UTC)And that went off on a Chimmy rant, sorry. I have a lot of feelings about that relationship and the way it seems to get viewed that Chloe is the bad guy and Jimmy got screwed over, ignoring so many things. (I also agree that Chloe should have had more screen time in S9 especially. But then I would have watched the Chloe show, with Clark sometimes appearing. LOL.)
But I absolutely LOVED the Brainiac storyline. Its right up there with the Chloe/the Luthors storyline, which is saying a lot. So I think that has a lot to do with my S8 love. (Also, its the introduction of Tess and I love me some Tess.) And I think like you said, a lot of my love for those two seasons (and even S10 to a degree) was that they let Chloe return to her somewhat darker roots. She never hit anti-hero status, but she was so much grayer and S9 for me was all about Chloe learning to depend on herself alone, to realize that the hero was not always going to be there to save you, and what she did with that. Chloe made some questionable choices (some we didn't get to see) but this was Chloe making choices for herself and deciding that she didn't need Clark (or Oliver or anyone) to save her. She would save herself. If no one else was going to, she would choose herself. And I loved that she had both the Davis storyline and the Oliver storyline. Davis' was the closest thing I got to my dream Chlex storyline. And by the point she got together with Oliver, the way they got together in S9 where he was far more invested and she was still trying to figure out how to trust someone again, how to trust someone with her heart specifically, I found really interesting. (But then I shipped those two long before they became canon, so I came with shipper goggles on and I know it.) But yeah, both seasons had a lot of flaws, but they came out with some great Chloe things (for me anyways) and I loved those. I also loved Tess' story arc, from villain to anti-hero to hero, and how organically it was done throughout the last three seasons. The only thing I'd change was the ending. (That and I'd want more scenes with Chloe.)
I feel like I should apologize for all the rambling...Hopefully it at least makes sense.
Yay for Bobby! I love Bobby too and am always excited when he gets included and anything that has Chloe/Bobby scenes. So I'm super excited for this story you haven't written too. XD I'm totally like that too. Its how I fall asleep, playing with my favorite characters and making them interact and seeing how they (mostly Chloe) would fit into this new world. I'm glad I'm not that only one who does that.
LOL, I like how we have an order for our nice days and for our mean days. Makes me giggle.

Date: 2014-01-05 09:17 pm (UTC)Yay, for Chloe/Davis meta!
Yes, Chloe show! Where is it, I want it!
BrainiacChloe! Made even better by the fact that 'normal' Brainiac was played by JAMES MARSTERS (SPIKE!)! (Again I'm very easy to please!) And yes, Chluthoropolis! They should have made that a spin off. :D
And yes, we did get quite a few things out of season 8 and 9 (and 10) for Chloe that I love....
Chloe knowing latin
Chloe having guns in reachable distance
Chloe carrying guns
Chloe shooting guns
Chloe shooting two guns
Chloe learning how to shoot an arrow (for the silent kill)
FutureAU Chloe being on the frontline of an apocalypse
Chloe having learned how to kick ass more effectively
Chloe suddenly having aquired the taste for whiskey
Chloe doing whatever it takes
Chloe on the road
Chloe being tempted with the seven deadly sins.
Chloe wearing leather jackets
Chloe wearing a black leather jacket.
Chloe having a picture of her and
JasonDean lying around...
:D
Lol, because of the list I forgot to respond to the rest. haha.
Anyway, yes Chloe/Bobby! I looooove them!
Also, of course we have an evil day order and a nice day order. ;)
no subject
Date: 2014-01-06 11:30 pm (UTC)LOL, I'm like 2/3's the way done with it. Its the last part of the season that's giving me trouble. Well that and my lack of a muse. My muse is gone missing for a lot of things. I'm thinking of putting up posters to help me find it.
The Chloe show would have been so awesome. Seriously, I would have watched it like crazy. And we could just have random cameos from the rest of the cast (and maybe some characters from some other shows...). Or I would have happily taken Chluthoropolis. Chloe and all the Luthors. We could have even added in Lucas and had Tess so much sooner. And possibly a Tess/Chloe team up much sooner too depending on what happened.
When I heard James Marsters was going to be on the show in S5 I was so hoping for lots of scenes with Chloe. I sadly only got one two years later. (Well two if you count that time she was unconscious in the hospital.)
Your list makes me happy and I very much agree with it. I'd also add scenes with Tess/their relationship, Chloe ending up running the Suicide Squad (why was there never more about that?), and Chloe/Oliver. (But I know you don't ship them like I do.)
no subject
Date: 2014-01-07 07:52 pm (UTC)Can't wait to read it then, and kick your muse from me and while you're at it, kick mine too.
Oh, I would have LOVED that show! Paul Wesley! It'd go like Michael Rosenbaum, Allison Mack, Cassidy Freeman, Paul Wesley, and John Glover as Lionel Luthor. with Special Guest Star James Marsters as Brainiac.
I count that time in the hospital! You. Bet. I. do. :D He's checking out his new body suit! What, I wasn't the one who came up with that one first, I'm just adopting it!
Well, if you check again, my list has a very distinct bias for scenes with a certain kind of relevance in a specific world... :D
no subject
Date: 2014-01-07 10:48 pm (UTC)LOL, I'm glad it's not just my shipper bias. I mean, I enjoyed him and Lois in S6 and I know they didn't know they were going to keep him around for so long. But him and Chloe, I would have loved to see that instead. And we could have used S6 as more of a platform for Lois' journalism career. But then, that's another story altogether. Some of it did get into a bit more of the mushy territory, but for me I was okay with it, because I felt like she deserved it after her horrible string of bad luck in that department. She ended up with a hot guy who loved her (possibly more than she loved him) and that was a good ending. But I can understand why you wouldn't enjoy it as much.
A lot of muse kicking happening. Hopefully something comes of it.
I know, right? It would have been an amazing show. So many good actors and such interesting relationships between the characters. Chloe+the Luthors is always amazing. And maybe here we could have gotten to see more of the Lex-Tess relationship, because I was always super intrigued by that, but since Michael was gone, we never really got to see any of it.
LOL, I have a tendency to forget about it. But it does definitely count. And I like the idea of him checking out his new body suit. It adds more elements to a lot of things. Also, its a nice reminder that he always knew who Chloe was and the possible threat/importance to Clark that she had.
I did in fact notice that. I think it might have been the speaks Latin bit that gave it away. (I always like to think about who it was that taught her Latin/why she decided to teach it to herself and who it involved.)
no subject
Date: 2014-01-08 12:12 pm (UTC)Yes, I'm with you there too, I enjoyed Oliver and Lois in season 6 too, simply because for the most part it seemed more grown up then most of the others and more down to earth and normal. But Chloe and Oliver met in the barn with those huge smiles and speechlessness and all that and just like that I was like, well, this is even better, why couldn't we have had this instead. They just had the spark in that scene, even more so than Oliver and Lois, imo, and they already had really nice chemistry. But I guess if I had to describe it I think I would say that Chloe/Oliver (Allison/Justin) always had more of the 'you could be the one that knocks me off my feet' chemistry, whereas Lois/Oliver was more a 'you're feisty and I like you/high school popular kids it couple' kinda chemistry. And look at me getting into analyzing mode over the Oliver and the cousins. :) And of course you understand me, even though you have a more benevolent view of it, and obviously Chloe deserves all the happiness and love she gets in season 10 but I'm evil and prefer her less happy or just a different kind of happy.
I know it's not Chloe/Davis meta muse kicking or Gone Under (Chloe/Michael) muse kicking but I had an idea after a comment from Rocio to one of my gifsets, that I (or somebody else who has something) can post a Chlean (though obviously we can extent that to more couples over time) manip/gifset/scene edit whatever once a week and everybody posts their head canon to it, like what they imagine is happening there, or a short drabble or if somebody feels really inspired uses it to launch a bigger story. Because you know to get better at writing you should write something everyday, and that could help with that. Just an idea though.
And yes, that would have made for a great show with a great quality cast. :)
Obviously, any and all kind of interaction between Allison and James count, after all we have to take what we can get if we only get so little. And yes, it was a nice touch that Brainiac knew about Chloe's importance to Clark and what he would/wouldn't do for her/to her.
I figured the latin should be a dead give away of the purpose of that list. Especially since WE know who taught it to her, oh wait, was it Bobby or Sam who helped with the studying? hmm...
no subject
Date: 2014-01-21 09:22 pm (UTC)I totally agree. Chloe and Clark had some amazing and beautiful moments. Their kiss at the end of S5 is still one of my favorite and imo one of the bests on the show, how its done, all the meaning behind it, the way she hold his face afterwards and pushes him to still leave (but a part of him wants to stay because Chloe), just everything about it is perfect. And like you said, them meeting up for the dance. So visually beautiful and so lovable with them smiling at each other. And I always get choked up with their phone call in Beast where she tells him she's doing this for him and he promises to find her. And they're not even in the same place!!! So yeah, ten years allowed for so many wonderful scenes before them and they totally still give me feelings despite not shipping them the way a lot of people did.
(LOL, the Warrior scene and the extension of it that came later that showed what happened after, well some of what happened after...LOL. Its definitely my favorite romantic scene. And I've seen it too many times to count, because hello. But Chloe wise, a couple of Chlark scenes probably come in second place.)
I agree. Lois and Oliver had good chemistry, but for me they never had that "this is permanent, I'll love you forever" chemistry. (Though I had the whole Lois and Clark knowledge, so that could have played into it.) But then, then Chloe and Oliver met in a barn of all places and things happened and smiles were given and he checked her out and she got so distracted by him she totally forgot about Clark all together. And yeah, I was a goner. I had a new ship. And it made more sense to me then anything else happening at that time on the show. (They had killed my Chlex dreams, its their own fault. :D) I really like your comparisons of the two relationships, I so agree, and its nice to see from someone who has so much less invested in it. LOL, I totally get that. I mean, obviously all this talk of angst. I get wanting different levels of happiness. I guess I always just figured that after such a long stay away from everyone and everything she loved and then the fight to readjust to a world that had moved on without her, she deserved an extra dose of happiness. Even the teary eyed kind and it kind of evened it out. But then, again shipper bias and my own headcanons might be playing into it without me knowing it.
Oh, that's an awesome idea! I would definitely be up for trying. I don't know how helpful I'd be in supplying anything, maybe some links to other people's work? But I love the idea of us all doing headcanons for the same thing. And if it leads to more Chlean fic (even just drabbles) that's even better. XD
I think there's a couple more were forgetting, just no general interaction between them. But there's an ep where she spends pretty much the whole time following him and is the one that realizes dude not who he says he is. And you know, I count those too. Also, her saving Clark at the end probably helped prove her worth/importance as well.
LOL, hmmmm...It could have been either really.
no subject
Date: 2014-01-22 11:51 am (UTC)(Oh, you mean they kissed only for Chloe to break the kiss when it starts going further and pulled away because she realized that she couldn't go through with it since her heart already belonged to somebody else and it wouldn't be fair to Oliver for her to lead him on like this. And after she explained it to him and Oliver left a little disappointed but understanding, she gets out her phone and calls her broken hero on the road. :P)
I think pretty much everybody had the Lois and Clark knowledge, by season 6 even if you didn't have it before you watched the show. Well, that was just mean of SV to kill your dreams like that but they were always good at that, though most shows are good at killing dreams (especially CW shows). Lol, probably your bias and head canons playing into it. :P If it were up to me, Chloe would have come back to save their asses and then immediately left again with her Suicide Squad, seriously what happened with them after Collateral? did Chloe disband them or what?, or for more screentime stayed with her Suicide Squad and showed them in action like you know it would have been great if they would have shown them investigate the Darkness and dealt with it, though I guess then SV would have to admit that Clark takes forever to get shit done that other people would take a 10th of the time to deal with. Basically I would have preferred more badass Chloe screentime in exchange for the romantic stuff.
Cool, I can post something tonight, to get started as soon as possible. :) And don't worry I figured I would have to supply most of the pretty. :P
Yes, Solitude! I find it kinda funny that Brainiac didn't pick up on Chloe following him, since she wasn't exactly all that inconspicuous.
Probably both.
