Dinner with solarsentinel

[chloesullivan]

So maybe Chloe was about fifteen minutes early as she made her way downstairs to meet up with Clark, of course there was no particular reason for that, and of course Clark wouldn't believe her when she told him that, but she didn't really care.

She made her way over to his desk, walking up behind him even if she was pretty sure he knew she was coming.

"Ready to go?"

Smiling is an improvement, but she's still going to push for it, because, well, she wants to spend time with both of them, she's greedy like that.

"We both know that's not true. Besides, you may find out you have even more than that in common."

"Aside from off duty heroics and a wish for more justice in the world?"

There's another smile, broken only by the arrival of their waiter with drink and appetizer orders. What? He's a big guy who gets hungry.

"Seriously, though, I know I unnerve him a lot. And that's fine. Not everyone who knows has to like it."

"Clark," he is so incredibly bullheaded, just another thing he and Oliver have in common, although she doesn't think that will help her make her point.

"it's not like that, I guess I had never really talked to him before, but he's a nice guy, and if you think you unnerve him, it's probably because he respects your opinion, even if he doesn't want to admit it." She's observant, and now that she knows Oliver better, she knows that he has the need to feel accepted just like the rest of them.

Maybe, but she loves him anyway, stubborn or not, and they both know it. "Chloe..."

He sighs, taking in what she's saying and agreeing with the surface level on principle. Everyone wants to be accepted, including himself, Oliver and Chloe.

"Or we have different world views and are both convinced our way is the best one. It might not be anything to do with my opinion and how valid it is."

Of course she does, he puts up with her own stubbornness too. "okay, so maybe you two have your differences when it comes to work-related stuff."

There is a quick pause as she takes a bite of her food, "but it doesn't mean you can't get along as friends." Another pause, this time for a shrug, "I just think both of you should have more friends, we can all hang out together sometime," even if there is a possibility that this could be slightly awkward, it could turn out well.
