48.4 Love is what you've been through with somebody- James Thurber
There are certain things you only share with certain people. It could be your friends, your spouse, your parents, your clergyman, your confessor or even your enemy. But all of these people rarely know everything the others do. We give different pieces of ourselves to the ones who really need it to understand the person we are when we're with them.
Sometimes, if you're really lucky, you get to connect with someone who gets to know everything. Someone who gets to see all sides of you and accepts and loves each and every one of them, because they've been right there beside you while you've gone through whatever traumas there are that we all seem to have to deal with from time to time. They know when you're not yourself and they'll go to lengths to make sure you don't hurt yourself or any one else in the process.

They'll hide Kryptonian SOS shields from your evil twin. They'll break out the green K when they really have to to stop you from hurting someone you'd be devastated to find out you had when you're yourself again. They'll grab the key to your arctic ice palace and follow you there without your knowledge, just because they know they can help and end up saving your life. And the world.

They'll risk themselves, life and limb, just because it might help you out in the long run, even if they may not make it out themselves. That's love. That's friendship.
That's Chloe.
