Safe in Your Arms

Author's Note: This was written for the Wednesday 100 Community. It is a crossover between Smallville and X-Men and goes along with the Chloe/John timeline.

Chloe Sullivan rested her head on John Allardyce’s shoulder and sighed. She loved the moments when she could sneak away from everyone and find him. It didn’t matter that he could burn anything he wanted to or that most of the world didn’t like him. He loved her, and that was enough to make her feel safe.

“You’re still not ready to tell everybody about us, are you?” John asked as his eyes met Chloe’s.

“I will, but right now, I don’t want to share you.”

She then closed her eyes and fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat.
