Synonymous

“For as long as I have been in Smallville the name Chloe Sullivan has been synonymous with Clark Kent. We’ve been best friends for so long that a large part of me has been defined BY you. When I talk to people they always ask how you are, as if I know the answer, which I always do. But what I’ve most recently realized Clark is that for as long as I live Clark Kent will never be synonymous with Chloe Sullivan. When they think of you they ask how Lex is, or Lana, or Martha or Lois or anyone else but me. To the world these are the people that have defined you. Lana is your love, Martha is your mother, Lex is your enemy of sorts and Lois, well people believe that Lois is your partner in crime. When ever your on a save-the-world mission, Lois is always behind you because she doesn’t know that you can handle yourself. She doesn’t know about you, but I do. And because of that you always tell me that it isn’t my place to come to your aid.

I’ve put my entire life on hold for you Clark, but for some reason your speeding by me. It’s as if we’re in a race and you’ve asked me to stop, and me, being so much in love with you, has foolishly decided that I need to fix the mess you left behind.

My life needs to go on because no matter how much I love you, no matter how many times I’d gladly take your place in front of death, you won’t for me.

And yes Clark I know you have, on many pervious occasions you’ve saved me, but would you still save me if you weren’t the Man of Steel? Would you still run to my aid if you knew you couldn’t get there in two seconds flat? Would you still be my best friend if I didn’t have an expansive data base? Because sometimes it doesn’t feel like you would.

Did you know that Kara is dating Jimmy? Did you even know we broke up? You’ve been wrapped up in Lana so much over the course of our friendship, it’s hard to tell if were we’re friends.

So I’m saying goodbye Clark, I’m saying good bye to save myself from being the girl on the sidelines. You don’t need me anymore, your superpowers have come and you don’t need a confidante because you have Lana. And you have Kara.

You’ve replaced me.

Because no matter how long I live Clark,

Are names just won’t ever be synonymous.”

The End.
