He took in her defensive posture and stepped closer to her. "You said your dad told you about two kinds of girls and how you had wanted to be the kind a guy grows into and not out of." Oliver held her gaze. "You are that girl," he said quietly. "And I know that because I grew into you, Chloe." His voice was very soft. "I wasn't looking for it to happen, but now I don't know how I missed it. You're beautiful, and smart, and sexy, and fun to be with."
He paused. "I don't fall easily, and I don't fall often. And if you made me fall in love with you..." He watched her. "The right guy for you is out there." He swallowed hard, his chest tightening. "It might not be Clark Kent or Jimmy Olsen. But you shouldn't give up because they're too blind to see you."
He lifted a hand and touched her cheek. "Because I do. And I won't be the only one." Oliver closed his eyes for a moment. "So don't think you're not enough or you're not perfect the way you are, because you are an incredible woman, Chloe." He leaned down and kissed her lips, a soft, chaste kiss.
Then he pulled away, his eyes stinging. "I should get back. I need to pack and uh, get ready for the flight."
