"Chloe's all sad,but why?" I think Chloe's one of those people who is good at saying what the other person needs to hear, even if it conflicts with what she personally feels herself. She knows that telling Lana will be good for Clark, but she also likes being the special secret keeper. She knows Clark doesn't think of her romantically, but she wishes he did sometimes, and she keeps that hidden--I think it shows in her sadness here though. And I imagine as Lana's friend, part of her probably feels that there's a wall between her and Lana because of the secret, and it's Clark who got to pull down the wall, not Chloe, so the girls are still at a distance from one another. It's a bit of a lose-lose for Chloe--she loses her special status with Clark and Clark takes on extra closeness to Lana at the same time.
