Chloe is a walking Tear Jerker for pretty much the whole series.
- As Kal is about to rape her:“Clark, this has gone far enough,” she said, trying to control her shaking voice. “You can still stop. You can walk away, and we can pretend this never happened.”“I told you,” he replied, his eyes cold. “My name is Kal.”
- After the crime is committed:“Who are you?” she whispered.
- "If I can’t trust my best friend not to hurt me, who can I trust?"
- “Don’t touch me!” she screamed in fear, yanking her hand out of his and backing away from him. “Don’t you ever touch me again!”
- All she wanted to do was drown out the two words that Clark Kent had destroyed her life with.I did.“No,” she sobbed, her legs buckling under her. “No, no, no, no, no!”And then she just collapsed in a heap and screamed. Screamed at the unfairness of sunshine and birdsong on a day in which her whole world had collapsed; pounded the earth with her fists in frustration because she could never again open her heart to anyone; sobbed in anguish because the person she’d loved and trusted most in the world had just admitted to raping her of his own free will.She buried her face in her hands and wept, wept until she lost all sense of time.
- “Of course this isn’t me!” she screamed, her voice reverberating off the rolling mountainside. “You think I don’t know that? I haven’t been ‘me’ since you raped me, Clark! You did this to me! You took away my life!”
- “Care? Why should I care for you? How can you expect me to feel anything for you but hate and revulsion after you held me down, smothered my screams and forced—-” she stopped and covered her mouth, trembling violently as the trauma of that horrible afternoon came back to haunt her in full force.“I can’t do this,” she said brokenly, tears brimming in her eyes. “I can’t. This doesn’t end until one of us is dead. And since I can’t hurt you anymore…” Clark watched in horror as she slowly reached out and picked up a sharp rock and held it to her wrist.He shook his head in complete disbelief. “No...Chloe...”“This ends now,” she said hoarsely, and to Clark’s utter dismay and horror she dug the pointed edge deep into her flesh.
