"I'm worried about you." He said, looking down at her. "You don't know anything about that Dean guy."

"Clark, you worry too much." She whispered, angrily. "I like him and that's all I need to know."

"What if something goes wrong and I'm not here?"

"I'll be fine, Clark. You're being paranoid." Chloe walked past him and turned to face him. "I'll talk to you later." She entered the hotel and closed the door.

Clark turned to leave when a male voice called out. "Hey." He turned around to see Dean standing beside the building.

"How long have you been out here?" Clark asked, frowning.

"Long enough to know that Chloe asked you to go home. I slipped out the door, while you two were talking." He answered, walking towards Clark. "I was just leaving." Clark said, placing his hands in his pockets.

"What's the deal with you?"

"I don't know what you mean."

"Chloe told me all about the dance and how you left her there alone. She said it took her a long time to get over you." Dean whispered, staring in to Clark's face.

"We're just friends." Clark stated bluntly.

"I've never seen a friend act so protective." Dean placed his own hands in his pockets and smiled. "So, Chloe starts hanging out with me, you realize that she finally exists and want me out of the picture. Do I have that about right?"

"I don't know what you mean." Clark shrugged. "Chloe and I are just friends. I'm worried about her."

"Well, don't." Dean said, walking back to the hotel door. "I have already told you that we have it covered."
