I just didn't read that scene as her being in love with him. Maybe she feels a closeness because Scott's parents died and her father died and that's the closeness she spoke of. I just don't see it as being in love.

Spoiler:the episode "Earth", for example. I know a bit about this one and it seems that we'll learn quite a bit more about Chloe in this one.

For me, how TPTB handle it now will be crucial. Now that the immediate threat of death is gone, how will they view their current situation? I'm hoping it's not ignored, and I'm really hoping that TPTB can creatively get us back to a situation where there's actually a relationship to develop.
As it stands, however, I find it very difficult to accept that they have any true feelings for each other quite yet...even given their extreme circumstances.
Still, I can't in all fairness jump the gun and say "OMG soooo unrealistic!!11one", because it's just not. In a real "impending death" situation, I'd venture to guess a decent chunk of people would do exactly the same thing. However, it either of them uses the "L" word anytime soon (and actually means it), then I just might lose all hope for TPTB
The sadistic side of me would love to see them torn apart (as a couple) for a while. I want to see them develop as individuals, and a relationship can come later and with actual build-up

It really was out of nowhere... but....
you can assume that people do have sex when the world seems to end, or it's dark (hence, tons of babies being born 9 months after a big blackout).
To me, this looked more like just sex for the sake of sex. No love.
However, I would like three months down the road for Chloe to go "I'm pregnant."
Come on, TPTB, you said you were going for realism, darker, edgier. If the world is ending, nobody thinks about condoms or birth control...strawberry cheesecake, sure, but not the former.

Have you ever seen soft-core porn? Try watching Cinemax after dark, that's soft-core porn.
that's why it's nicknamed Skin-e-max
And oh, yeah, I felt sorry for Eli. He knows Chloe's screwing around with Scott, yet she's using him as the big brother 'let me lean on you since the guy I just had sex with has left me' And as someone pointed out, how will the writers deal with this? Or will we just get a love trianagle of Scott-Chloe-Eli...?

First Scott was with Lieutenant James, and now he hooks up with Chloe, proving he is two timing. And Chloe lets Eli see her naked, and then has sex with Scott, and then lays her head on Eli's shoulder, and breaks his heart, proving she is two timing also. I think both Chloe and Scott are unlikeable because of this. After this last episode, I am still having problems liking any of the characters. I think that for any series to succeed, it must have likeable. sympathetic characters, and so far, I am not seeing any.

I saw two people who obviously have some feelings for each other and thought they would never get another chance to express them. Was Chloe a little over the top with 'I haven't been this close to somebody' stuff, sure. But she just had her father die, thinks she's about to die too, and just had sex with a guy she does have some feelings for. I don't think it's unreasonable for her to feel exceptionally close to Scott at that point.
